i’ve got these questions and obsessions
of everything left behind
you’ve got a strobe light of emotions
And all these things
Reflections (memories) that always cut at the taste
porcelain skin red lips that I can’t erase
know you want it want want it
even if it’s a mistake
i’ll be there when you're gone
It’s pretty in the AM and i am making my way
i don't’ plan it it just seems that way
no no no no no
you can’t get away
oh i’ll be there before you know
these questions and obsessions
of everything left behind
We’ve got these questions and obsessions
of everything left unsaid
emotions and all these things will anything be left behind
you silly romantic harlequin
I know i know i know i want it want want it want it
even if it’s a mistake
yeah yeahh yeah yeah you can get away
it always seems so far away
wouldn’t be nice to feel that some day

this jealousy waits till we forgot about it
(is it) It’s hard to erase words said and talked about it
oh no it’s too late I never thought to talk about it
oh no it’s too late I never thought to talk about it
oh no oh no let’s wait I never want to talk about it
on the window let’s decode
in the winter let’s disrobe
hold on let’s wait
sick of landing this spaceship on the other side of your head
and trying to relate to space
and it goes like a shade on the window
and it fades on the window
this one thing that was so sure is gone away
it felt good for so long but it’s now gone
let go and free it today
hold on and free it today
hold on and free it
oh no let’s wait i never think about it
oh no oh no let’s wait
I never want to think about it

you thought it would be so tough
you were right it was rough
you thought it would be so tough
you were right it was rough
everything was coming apart
everything was falling away
let’s run as fast as we can
like it’s nineteen sixty nine and a man can touch the sky
you thought it would be so tough
you were right it was rough
is everything coming apart
is everything falling away
let’s run as fast as we can
our shoes fall off and our bare feet are covered in clay
let’s run as fast as we can
try try and try again
you thought it would be so tough
you were right it was rough
let the world come apart
let the world fall away
let’s get the fuck out of here
like it’s nineteen sixty nine
run run as fast as we can
till till till till we can’t
you thought it would be so tough
you were right it was rough
with everything coming apart
with everything falling away
let’s get the fuck out of here
like we believe that we can escape
run as fast as we can till the world just crawls away
let’s run as fast as we can
let’s hold the world in our hands
so it doesn’t come apart don’t let it fall away
run as fast as we can till our shoes shoes fall away
you thought it was tough you were right it was rough it was rough
the world is coming apart the world is falling away.
You thought it would be so tough
You were right it was rough
Everything is coming apart
Is everything falling away
Let’s get the fuck out of here
Let’s drive towards the sun
Run run as fast as we can
Until until we can’t

As I stare over right and wrong
As I stare over and over
Who knows who care’s
Shine a light in the room
See who stands when it’s hard and true
Prepared, by the loss of youth
Over and over and over we do this over again
Over and over and over I do this over again
As I stand over the edge and cliff
No matter when you’ll never trust this
As you stare threw a crooked plate
As we stand with nothing left to say
Over and over and over we do this over again
Over and over and over we do this over again
As we stand at the end of a story
As you stand at the end of a story
I did it for love cause what else is there
I did it for love cause what else is there
Just leave just leave I didn’t think I really needed to meet them
I think I’ll hibernate for the weekend.

Can’t bear you inside my Head
like staring out the Window

It twitches you up in time
The sound hits you in the eyes
It twitches you up in time
from your hips to your eyes
I thought we had something special
I thought we had something nice
*
I have this rattle You call aMic
The sound hits you in the eyes
It twitches you up in time
From your hips to your eyes
It twitches you up in time
Don’t want you inside my head
It doesn’t matter. If nothing matters. It doesn’t matter. tonight
I have this rattle You call aMic
The sound hits you in the eyes
It twitches you up in time
From your hips to your eyes
It twitches you up in time
Don’t want you inside my head
It doesn’t matter. If nothing matters. Then no one follows.
let’s break the dance floor let’s break the dance floor let’s break the dance floor let’s break it down tonight.
I have this rattle You call aMic
The sound hits you in the eyes

I got this rattle they call a mic

My little fuse box I want you to short circuit on a moments notice.
My little red fox I want you to touch it like you know no better
My little toy box I want you to touch it like it knows its mother
my little red fox I want you to know no no how it feels when you know no better
ooo's [x2]
A little red fox came to my door and it just pushed me over
Red shoes a pink tail She just danced she danced right over
With no worries, no worries but a viscous smile (she’s wearing it just a while)
My little fuse box I want you to short circuit on a moments notice
My little fuse box I want you to short circuit on a moments notice.
My little red fox I want you to cover my eyes so I don’t notice
My little red fox I want you to touch you like it you know no better
My little red fox I want you to short circuit like it’s our private letter
ooo's [x4]

at gun point

if i speak of an arrow.
do i speak in jest.
if i talk at gunpoint.
at whose behest
if I believe in something
who will tell me it was just
who will be waiting
who should i trust.
if i was to tape back the drape lines
who would be behind
was it my imagination
should i give up
If i fall down the faultlines
down to your chest
will you break me slowly
when i feel content
if i speak from an angle
would you protest
you all matter quietly
behind things you said
and if i should meet you sunday
would you recollect
would it all be forgiven
is it all be for the best
if i speak of an arrow.
do i speak in jest.
if i talk at gunpoint.
at whose behest
