apocalypso

in nolan time
sign, what does the mind cover
are we talking
white is the winter

care-lines, care-lines thumped it up
what are your stories all about?
carries a weight on her swing, on her swing

black waves come and so fear me
december, sinking

in nolan time
i lost all my pure feelings
the psychiatrist posing as psychologist
when fear predicts then doubtly the mind suffers
are we talking?
white is the winter

care-lines, care-lines thumped it up
what are your stories all about?
carries a weight on a swing, on a swing

black waves come, and so fear me
december, sinking

waltz with me, courageously
we're dancing, dancing

we will not die!
our days are multiplied
and i am happy again

care-lines, care-lines thumped it up
what are your stories all about?
carries a weight on her swing, on her swing

am i wry? no

farah, now that you're here
can you tell me
exactly how i should have done?
farah drives with her eyes closed
do you ever
inflict unwanted memories?

i know you
and i know it won't take you long
to make me smile.

farah, angelic girl
i'll have you
know it's you and me potentially.

farah don't pull the carpet
from under me
indifference is killing me

am i wry?
oh my! fallacy!
fallacy in my words
am i wry?

i know you
and i know you're not afraid
to say the least

diamond ring, diamond ring
but you can't find it
cold is the night

diamond ring, diamond ring
but you can't find it

from my boat
i can see your house
and when the lights are on
i can watch you move
hear the wind
whispering your name
twice the encouragement
of the real you

callie, if you really want me to
i can always get you down
if you got the money for me

callie, in the summer rain
you will be kept dry, you see
if you got the money for me

making amends for distant wrong
sincere

you can run away
leave your books behind you
but you should look back twice
just to be on the safe side

from my boat
i can see your house
but now the lights are off
and there's no one home

you are just
like an avalanche
cold as i might have guessed
but at least i'm covered up for now

in a big big way
i am really small
i get off my feet
but i'm still distant

don't you just love goodbyes?
don't you just love goodbyes?

callie, let us get it over with
i can always get you down
if you got the money for me

callie, in the summer rain
you will be kept dry, you see
if you got the money for me

most of our lives we try so hard
to find the time

i won't care for you
like i'm really supposed to
there are things i'll do
that could really hurt you

don't you just love goodbyes?
don't you just love goodbyes?
156
don't you just love goodbyes?

city voices

from the sounds of approaching footsteps
i got scared that it wasn't you
i had heard bout that happened
still i hope that it wasn't true
but there in the dark voices
call out someone's name
have you heard by the city voices
voices that tell you secrets
your eyes told of a million memories
your mouth spoke of a million things
i said you were cool
you said 'no'
i asked you why

you said
don't trust the city voices
voices that fill you with lies
you said
don't trust the city voices
voices that fill you with lies

behind the drapes

all of us now
bent as we fall
to amorous light
we call out
why are we so alone
even with company?
if not the moon
will us guide
will then the street light?

all of us now
breathe it like smoke
to know what it's like
breathing to choke

well for nine days
a small moth has
tried to escape
our bedroom

why are we so alone
even with company?
we are the prey
for each day
a striking distance

why are we so alone
even with company?
if not the moon
will us guide
will then the street light?

why are we so alone
even with company?
we are the prey
for each day
a striking distance

envoy to the open fields

all manner of malady come to be seen
all manner of malady come to be seen
why do you call me at the door?
you don't know me
why do you?
why do you call me all the time?
you don't know me

in the corners of eyes
i'll stretch the sky in blue
and i'm thinking you're made for me
and i'm thinking of things you said

hey now! no using me
hey now! can you see them?
no use in me
when all you want is
and when you go i stay
there are no complications
and when you go i stay
the blood is on moirre hands today

why do you call me at the door?
you don't know me
why do you?
why do you call me all the time?
you don't know me
assigned to ascertain their find
for i believe these fields divide
the other world
we timeless horse employ, envoy
how do you know?
where did you go?
solar, i can't see anything
collide with me

in the corners of your eyes
i'll stretch the sky in blue
and i'm thinking we knew no better
and i'm thinking

mica

i wanted to remember my mica?
you helped me again to think of the
unthinkable things
made my arms hurt so bad i would
happily forget
you're surprised at what you go through
as if no one ever told you
on your own feet
your own feet stand
not to wallow in heartache

i've done more than i would like to
but it's not all that i can do
you gotta get out of bed, into it

when even your bad luck runs out
not to wallow in
self-pitying pathetic dreams
you know what i mean

she worked hard to be his novice
and then broke into his office
with her clothes off
her clothes off still
not to wallow in heartache

amor, settle for a small dart
if you can't find it in your heart
but there's a big noise from her chest

let me do the talking
now that i'm here
you'll steal all the attention anyway

cause something about you
compels me to feel
that a glued together vase
is still a vase

she came home for christmas

don't touch her there
she's blindfolded
she remembers on the bus
into my heart
don't remember
like you left us
without notice
now you've come back
like you left us
like you owe us
into my heart

it's not me, it can't be
it's not you, i can't do
what i do if it's you
this is not happening

don't touch her there
she told me
she remembers how it felt

into my heart
don't remember
like you left us
without notice
now you've come back
like you left us
like you owe us
into my heart

it's not me, it can't be
it's not you, i can't do
what i do if it's you
this is not happening

it's not me, it can't be
it's not you, i can't do
what i do if it's you
this is not happening

don't touch her there
he watched her
she knew his look

snowflake

tonight i won't say tonight it's ok
always had a feeling it would pass
never ever thought it'd be this way
still i keep in mind that snow is safe
safer than it was two years ago
tonight i won't say tonight it's ok
always had a feeling it would pass
never ever thought it'd be this way
still i keep in mind that snow is safe
safer than it was

always had a choice

symmetry

i'm caught in the symmetry of your mind
but i'm not happier than you
i'm caught in the symmetry of your mind
but i'm not happier than you
did i really see you
or was it a dream?
dreaming that it was seamless
not a trace of wrong

wrong words that we have spoken
little did we know
no bigotry, no tears shed
oh if...

only you'd try to be polite
thinking you were right
only to find that you're unkind
but ironically you will always be
belle of the ball at least to me

i'm caught in the symmetry of your mind
but i'm not happier than you

but my words are frail
not audible they do
not even convince me
perhaps they are untrue

truly with you the worst is always true
i gave you all the benefits
of all the doubts i had
never hoped to be as benign as me
funny how you always get through
but ironically you will always be
belle of the ball at least to me

special

you're special
you're like rocket through me
ohh, you're special
you're a rocket to me
and i cannot this time

agarina
you can't say no
agarina
this time you will go

you're special
you're like a rocket through me
ohh, you're special
you're a rocket to me
and i cannot this time

there's a taste that you can't shake
but you can't seem to let them go awry
i know you're special
you're a rocket to me
at this surprised
all the time

i know what you said to me
and i don't care at the same time
but i'll take you up and down
address it to you
honey bee
i know what you said to me
and i don't care at the same time
and what do you stay to do?
i saw the worst of you

the zookeeper's boy

are you, my lady are you?
are you, my lady are you?

if i don't make it back from the city
then it is only because i am drawn away
for you see, evidently there's a dark storm coming
and the chain on my swing is squeaking like a mouse

so are you, my lady are you?
so are you, my lady are you?
the rain, the rain, the rain is falling down
the cars remain

you're tall just like a giraffe
you have to climb to find its head
but if there's a glitch
you're an ostrich
you've got your head in the sand

in a submersible i can hardly breathe
as it takes me inside, so the light sings
answer me truthfully, do the clouds kiss you?
with meringue-coloured hair, i know they cannot

so are you, my lady are you?
so are you, my lady are you?
the rain, the rain, the rain is falling down
the cars remain

santa ana winds bring seasickness
zookeeper hear me out
how dare you go?
cold in the rain

tall just like a giraffe
you have to climb to find its head
but if there's a glitch
you're an ostrich
you've got your head in the sand

are you, my lady are you?
are you, my lady are you?
the rain, the rain, the rain is falling down
the cars remain
i could not be seen with you
working half the time and looking fine

comforting sounds

i don't feel alright
in spite of these comforting sounds you make
i don't feel alright
because you make promises that you break
into your house
why don't we share
our solitude?

nothing is pure
anymore
but solitude

it's hard to make sense
feels as if i'm sensing you through a lens
if someone else comes
i'll just sit here listening to the drums

previously
i never called
it solitude

and probably you know
all the dirty shows i've put on
blunted and exhausted like anyone
honestly i tried to avoid it
honestly

back when we were kids,
we would always know when to stop
and now all the good kids are messing up
nobody has gained or accomplished

like paper cuts

i came for you
just to feel you
finally
break in two

i would that you
spoke with no words
like paper cuts they hurt

cicada
sing like it was afternoon already

call for your love
it is bulit soon to end
this heart is

you rendered me
unprotected
my feet part
of the floor

i would that you
spoke with no words
like paper cuts they hurt

cicada
sing like it was afternoon already

call for your love
it is built soon to end
this heart is

panda

saw the candy turn to corn
well, it's like the morning's born
and i'll try to like horses
and i'll try to like horses
now i'm there, you didn't know
try to think about the snow
don't be riding over me
'cause you are all that i can see
i'll try to like horses
and i'll try to like horses

i'll be glad with andy pandy
feed the horses with your candy
i'm the stray cat on your roof
clap your hands and lift your hoof
and i'll try to like horses

then i run

sleeping, i saw you in a dream
hey, i'm feeling kinda sick these days
i come along, i smell the air
i hear them smile and i'm beside me
my head feels light and so are theirs
frames are molded once again
i feel it come, i go outside
and i lay down in the cool grass
when i look up it isn't there
but you can sense it in the evening

and then i run, and then i run
and then i run, and then i run
and then i run, and then i run

i guess i should have seen them coming
i guess i should have seen them
i should have seen them

whenever

it doesn't matter where you are
someone is there with you, i fear
it doesn't matter where you are
i can't complain
ignore the stain
christmas day is over
lights out, breathe slower

cannot sleep
open your eyes
look outside
tell your goodbyes

it doesn't matter where you are
when you're alone
light a small fire
i don't like your sparkles at all
guitarist and his centerfold
why is that fire old?
a green light is a red light
in your dreams tonight
it's like a battle, battle.

christmas day is over
lights out, breathe slower

i told you why i am lonely
but you can't stay
tomorrow, streets, blank faces
stare unwilling
but there are so few

cannot sleep
open your eyes
look outside
tell your goodbyes

cannot sleep
open your eyes
look outside
tell your goodbyes

and i'll be waiting around your house

saliva

and i'm sorry about you and me
and i'm sorry about us
you tried to give it your best
but to what end, saliva
you may not think so at first
but i'm your designated driver
but this roadside is not yours or mine
and it's about time that i stop
she is the grey weather
at end of my tether
i didn't quite make it
i had to forsake it

and as i sit on the train
i can taste her in my saliva
but i still depend
on my thursday friend, saliva
and there's no book about you and me
all the snippets remain

i get a light, i get a light from everyone
that's right so undetermined
all i do now is just horrible and mean
i used to think that she and me could only be
just fine, and to begin with
nothing seems wrong
but it's not a happy song

and i'm sorry about you and me
and i'm sorry about us

she is the grey weather
at end of my tether
i didn't quite make it
i had to forsake it

i'm finding out
that you can't mess around with saliva
and i drive a lot
cause i can't stop thinking about her
(i'm in your hands)

i'll be yours, you'll be mine
it'll be fine, intertwined

wet your dried out lips with saliva
what's more strange than this? your saliva
if i did not miss your saliva
if my lips could kiss your saliva
stop

coffee break

close the door when they come in
they can feel their whole world spin
smoking plastic shards
they'll never be scared of me
(i won't drown)
and when they change themselves
they are never afraid of me

summer's out for you
there's no time for you

it is not what it seems
you're awake in your dreams
with lithium you'll never be sad again
but you can't sleep with her

it's not by choice, is it?
i hope you never come back
there's someone else in here
please tell me why
please tell me when

shespider

after we go to sleep
our sun rise
i will make it the truth
of painfully helping me
cover up things
i wish i never had found
confident, tangled up
in a nice life
put the spider in you
watching in disregard
you live a nice life
with the spider in you

confident, tangled up
in a nice life
put the spider in you
watching in disregard
you live a nice life
with the spider in you

i saved myself
for someone
somewhere's sweet caress
something goes wrong
and all i sought was happiness

and so
in right wing fashion
we'll nurture xenophobia
and be strong
in right wing fashion
with paste and generosity
because no one is safe
from someone
somewhere's sweet embrace
and so i
have simply decided
to dislike you now

snow brigade

and they want to bring out
the someone you want to know
beneath the snow

in winter you're an affliction
that repeatedly defeated me

i'll find you somewhere
show you how much i care
know that there is no
escape from my snow brigade

bring out the someone
you need to see
for jealousy
we all know
one day you'll be behind
your everything
and feel the spring come

i'll find you somewhere
show you how much i care
know that there is no
escape from my snow brigade

my arms retreat
i wish they were there
to hold you

i'll find you somewhere
show you how much i care
know that there is no
escape from my snow brigade

why are you looking grave?

why are you looking grave?
are you thinking of something to say?
why are you sitting there?
are you hoping that someone will stare?

your mouth is hiding
you've got smiling eyes

why are you looking grave?
are you thinking of something to say?
be i thinking of you?

your mouth is hiding
you've got smiling eyes
softly dividing
what they see in your face
from what you feel like inside

who are all those who greet me?
does it matter if i know?

your mouth is hiding
you've got joyless eyes
softly contriving
all the terrible things
that shook up our hearts enough

wheels over me

mending hand bleeding and
lend my hands the wheel, you fly over me
let it go now, you've been glad too
with my hand as the wheel you cry over me
i would like to be a child
drown with me until you die

i thought i, i heard you cry
but it's just the wheels that ride over me
but then i, i know that's why
when i hear you sneeze

you're my dancing girl
i never thought you'd mean the world
it's why i'm here and why it seems reliable
so much time for us
there's nowhere here but there it was
the tale i had, and you became a friend again

i can hear them
they lost their sense and feelings
when you touch the wheel
i'll be alright asleep forever

i would like to be a child
drown with me until you die

you're my dancing girl
i never thought you'd mean the world
it's why i'm here, and why it seems reliable
so much time for us
there's nowhere here but there it was
