Warm Machine

I memorize the basics
Making strange faces
Tread slowly for I know
There's a
thousand miles to go
 Without blinking
Gravitate spacewards
Find a home for
the head from my basement
No darkness ever left
 This is the night
This is
the sound
Here comes the warm machine
Such a warm machine
Some days are
playful
 Making play faces
But we will not let it through
The darkness and
the sense
Of being born to lose
This is the night
 This is the sound
Here
comes the warm machine
Such a warm machine
This is thelife
This is the
ground
Here comes the warm machine
Such a war machine
If we never know we
can only feel
I'll take the help
I'll take a slice
Warm alright now
Cos I
feel alright
I memorize the basics
The basics the basics
This is the
night
This is the sound
Here comes the warm machine
Such a warm machine
Such
a warm machine
Such a warm machine
Machine machine machine

Jesus Online

Whatever she wants from me
Whatever device
Whether in kindness
Whether in
spite
What can I say
What can I do
 I can't help myself
I let the monster

Wherever she sends me
Wherever the plane
Perfect black dress
Perfect

 What can I say
What can I do
I did it to myself
I did it all
confused

The Chemicals Between Us

I want you to remember
A love so full it could send us all ways
I want you
to surrender
All my feelings rose today
And I want you to remain
The power
of children can amaze
 I'll try not to complain
I know that's a pisser
baby
The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us
Lying in this
bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier state
Than lying in this
bed
 I want you to remember
Everything you said
Every driven word
Like a
hammer hell to my head
The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between
is
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
 There is no lonlier face
Lying
in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Lying in this
bed
We're of the hollow men
We are the naked ones
We never meant you
harm
Never meant you wrong
I'd like to thank
All my lovers lovers lovers
lovers lovers lovers
The chemicals between us
The army of achievers
Lying in
this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier state
Than lying in
this bed
 The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Chemicals
The
chemicals between us

Spacetravel

They're polishing the government
Resembles a last waltz
We are the
playthings
We are the form
Soon it may come
Since we can rise
Too long since
I've seen you
We move like satellites
My future lies
 In spacetravel
She's
coming over me
They're burning the tenements
Topless progressive
thinking
Political holes
Got six but pray for seven
My future lies
In
spacetravel
She's coming over me
I employ spies
 To stroll the gravel
They
never want to leave
My future lies
Scared of the government
I'm scared of
the government
My future lies
In spacetravel
There's someone after me
I
employ spies
In silver tassels
They never seem that pleased
 My future
lies
My future lies

40 Miles From The Sun

There is nowhere left to hide
There is nothing to be done
No people to be
saved
No pets we've never named
40 miles from the sun
As darkness craves the
mind
We come undone without our pride
No time on earth to come
All the
pleasures just begun
40 miles from the sun
In our coats beneath the
layers
Wash my skin of all the hate
We should sleep late
Everything just
kind of grates
40 miles from the sun
I need to lose to make it right
 I'll
confront the stars tonight
I will babble I will bite
You'll never know how
much you shine
40 miles from the sun
40 miles from the sun

Prizefighter

There are days
When I fear for my life
Think that's strange
Well that's the
waste of you
Sun up time now for you to run
I will always know you--you're a
special one
Now I'm up on this climb, up on this climb
I won't fade away

The best is yet to come
Said you're not around
The best is yet to come

Better get your feet back on the ground
Prisoner or passenger
A free man or
scavenger
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter
Who will be there
Cover when
you fall
 We're all chasing something
How come you never call
The best is
yet to come
Said you're not around
The best is just begun
Better get your
feet back on the ground
Better get your feet back on the ground
Prisoner or
passenger
A free man or scavenger
I'm a prizefighter
I'm a
prizefighter
Prisoner or passenger
A free man or scavenger
I'm a
prizefighter
I'm a prizefighter
I thought you were all beautiful
It doesn't
make sense, sense, sense
I'm a prizefighter

The Disease Of The Dancing Cats

Infested, polluted
80 tons of mercury dumped in a bay
It's bleeding there's
no proof
That's no way to treat a good friend
Your whiskey talks louder
Than
most things I've read you said
In situ
In place now
Sit back unwind and
relax
 Big cheese is all greed
It's all relative what you need
Happy
birthday happy birthday happy birthday
Here's your nerve gas
All the
fishermen and their families
All sickly crumbing cerebellum
It's all over
for orangatans
Looks like they're back on the street again
Mistrusted,
disruptive
Rape land and kill good habitat
World weary, world broke
Well
spent and money money money
Injected, transmuted
80 tons of mercury dumped
in a bay
It's breathing--it puts the dog in the basket
All the fishermen and
their families
All sickly growing sentimental
It's all over for
orangatans
Looks like they're back on the street again
All the fishermen and
their families
It's all over for orangatans
Looks like they're back on the
street again
It's all over for orangatans
Looks like looks like
It looks
like
Invaded, downgraded
Your bile lands right on my head
Uncalled for,
unwanted
My sinking zero tolerance
All the fishermen and their familes
All
sickly crumbling cerebellum
It's all over for orangatans
Looks like they're
back on the street again
All the fishermen and their families
It's all over
for orangatans
Looks like they're back on the street again
It's all over for
orangatans
Looks like
It's the street again

Altered States

Living in a cage
Washing in a bird bath
Sinking in a fishbowl
On a broken
farm
I try to never lie I really do
I wonder if my friends will get me
through
Conscious of the way as best we can
17 ways to kill a man
States
we've been through
Killing nostalgia for future swims
Trash all your
bridges
Kill the rock and roll thing
I want to move on with no
complaints
Building our walls with yesterday
Might as well shine before you
slide
Might as well live before you die
States we've been through
States
we've been through
States states
A whole lot of emptiness
Living in a state
of constant changing
A river of flux for our tasting
I try to never lie I
really do
I wonder if my friends will get me through
It always seems to rain
when you leave
I try to stem the flow as we bleed
States we've been
through
States states
States states

Dead Meat

Your dead meat from former days
I am your crisis
Blue asbestos in your
veins
I'm your broken fingers
I've killed you twice
I will again
Revenge is
eager
See first you'll crash and then you'll burn
Dorothy died for your
pleasure
It's hard to get along in this car crash weather
Your dead
meat
Your dead meat
Your dead meat
Your dead meat
Formaldehyde didn't phase
me
I soon returned to track you down for your confession
I'll be your poison
and your pain
I'll be your struggle to be sane
Exploited
Lament and the
places you never went
Dorothy dies for your pleasure it's hard to get along
in this car crash weather
I'm doing you in tomorrow
That's why I'm dressed
in all this sorrow
I'm doing you in tomorrow
I'll burn before I
mellow
Dorothy died for your pleasure
It's hard to get along
 It's hard to
get along

Letting The Cables Sleep

You in the dark
You in the pain
You on the run
Living a hell
Living your
ghost
Living your end
Never seem to get in the place that I belong
Don't
wanna lose the time
Lose the time to come
Whatever you say it's
alright
Whatever you do it's all good
Whatever you say it's alright
 Silence
is not the way
We need to talk about it
If heaven is on the way
If heaven is
on the way
You in the sea on a decline
Breaking the waves
Watching the
lights go down
Letting the cables sleep
Silence is not the way
We need to
talk about it
If heaven is on the way
We'll wrap the world around it
If
heaven is on the way
I'm a stranger in this town
I'm a stranger in this town

Mindchanger

Help me sometimes, I need that much
Don't you think it's strange
How we can
turn dust
Think it's strange
Like really strained
We'll never run when we've
got all these broken bones
It's so hard to let you go
But I will change your
mind
Think of me sometimes
I'd never tell
 Do you recognize me
Think that
you know me well
I think you're changing, configurating
Destroyed the
lines
That fed the goods to your heart
It's so hard to let you go
Run with
the hunted
As you come
Run with the hunters
I was one
But I will make you
change your mind
