Grotesque

"This is what's wrong and this is what's right. Solid black. Solid white. We own the lies, we own the truth. As old as time and the glow of youth. For the fires in the east, fires in the west, all things are beautiful. All things grotesque."

Dead End

Is it just for the time? Disappearing in lust – I’ll give you nothing. Can anybody save him?
Make her beg for the pill. Sitting pretty and ripe – you’ll heal tomorrow.
You’re nothing but a dead end
She hides her head from the quivering ground – screams how did you know
He throws a penny in the wishing well – said help me – where did you go
Replace her sins in the whispering water – hear pianos
She holds her ears from the loneliest sound – said help me – where did you go
Where did you go
Broken blisters in boots. Drink the whisky and wine so she can get through. I’m always gonna’ crave him.
Drop the need for a thrill. Sittin’ lonely and shy - try again tomorrow.
You’re nothing but a dead end
She hides her head from the quivering ground – screams how did you know
He throws a penny in the wishing well – said help me – where did you go
Replace her sins in the whispering water – hear pianos
She holds her ears from the loneliest sound – said help me – where did you go

Hero Within
04:03
|

Wicked greed – green on the paper
Suffer please – he saw an angel
spider weaves – she licks her fingers
cry on me – hero within
Break down the take down - the wind she will blow
all abound – wrapped around her soul
She waits while he breaks the stories that they told
all inside a crystal lie they sold
Reaching or breaching
Creature with eyes of gold

My habit – you gonna know where you are - where you are - where you are
My habit – you gotta know when to stop - when to stop - when to stop
Infectious hexes - give or take
sleep alone – with spiders and snakes
in strange dark places – start the chase
My habit – you gonna know where you are - where you are - where you are
My habit – you gotta know when to stop - when to stop - when to stop
Uh oh – it’s another day – I don’t suppose I can blink and make it go away
but there’s a strange noise comin’ from the back porch buildin’ like a freight train – squealin’ like a spoiled kid.
oh no – what do I see – the book of revelations opens right in front of me – but there’s a storm cloud brewin’ in a tea cup – spillin’ on a sidewalk – restin’ in my underpants
My habit – you gonna know where you are - where you are - where you are
My habit – you gotta know when to stop - when to stop - when to stop
Uh oh – time is runnin’ out – the clock is tickin’ and it’s trippin’ and it’s laughing at me – and there’s a strange voice comin’ from the backroom – spreadin’ like a revolution stirring up a mutiny
Reflection injection – live on fate
come along – with the devils handshake
in strange dark places – stop the chase

In Violent Dreams
03:46
|

Tie your boots – shoot shoot
hit the target – run – start with the left foot
Hold me down with everything you’ve done
follow with the right foot – the right foot
Point a finger or a gun – use a perfect smile – slap with an open hand
kiss my cheek – I’ve never bled so much – fight till’ we understand – misunderstand
Cheated me
bleed right through
violent dreams
in violent dreams – violent violent violent violent violent
Hit the button – click click
this is loud and clear – it started in your sleep
Toys are cold – your momma tells you so
it’s all you’ll ever need and never know
Bite the bullet and your tongue – show your broken teeth – the dying chosen one
kiss my cheek – I’ve never bled so much – it’s all we’ve ever done – we’re never done
Cheated me
bleed right through
violent dreams
in violent dreams – violent violent violent violent violent

White Room
03:19
|

He listens so hard but her words are made of glass
cracks in mirrors – twist and bend the path
in the white room – I want you – and we’re perfectly cut in two
in the white room – I’ll be with you – in the shadows with a broken tooth
run to the river when the jackal starts to laugh
smokestacks that billow – breathing turns to gasps
in the white room – I want you – and we’re dripping wet with honey dew
in the white room – I’ll be with you – and you’re vividly in color, too
He listens so hard – but her words will never last
these broken mirrors – shattered bits of past
in the white room – I want you – and we’re perfectly cut in two
in the white room – I’ll be with you – in the shadows with a broken tooth
vividly in color, too

Oh, the heads that turn
Make my back burn
And that heads that turn
Make my back, make my back burn
The sparkle in your eyes
Keeps me alive
And the sparkle in your eyes
Keeps me alive, keeps me alive
The world
And the world turns around
The world and the world yeah
The world drags me down
Oh, the heads that turn
Make my back burn
And that's heads that turn
Make my back, make my back burn, yeah
Hey yeah hey, yeah hey
The fire in your eyes keeps me alive
And the fire in your eyes keeps me alive
Inside her you'll find sanctuary
Inside her you'll find sanctuary
And the world the world turns around
And the world and the world the world drags me down
And the world and the world the world turns around
And the world and the world and the world and the world
And the world drags me down
Ah, hey yeah, hey yeah
And the world and the world turns around
And the world and the world
Yeah, the world drags me down
And the world
Yeah, the world turns around
And the world and the world the world drags me down
Hey yeah, hey yeah
Sanctuary, hey
Sanctuary, hey

Vails
03:09
|
|||
The moon moves like you - all splintered and warm
the birds in the pictures – don’t sing anymore
My wish is for nothing
kiss the leaves and I kick the trees
My heart is made of vails
simple as the night
the sugar stops at nothing
the end of the knife
My wish is for nothing
kiss the leaves and I kick the trees
Can I faint in your shadows
maybe smoke a cigarette
and a shy girl gives you a snarl
it’s not over yet
My wish is for nothing
kiss the leaves and I kick the trees
It’s not over yet
