Always
stays the same, nothing ever changes,
English
summer rain seems to last for ages.

I'm
in the basement, you're in the sky,
I'm
in the basement baby, drop on by.
I'm

Hold
your breath and count to ten,
And
fall apart and start again,
Hold
your breath and count to ten,
Start
again, start again...
Hold
your breath and count your step,
And
fall apart and start again,
Start
again... (x13)

I
hold an image of the ashtray girl
As
the cigarette burns on my chest
I
wrote a poem that described her world
That
put my friendship to the test
And
late at night
Whilst
on all fours
She
used to watch me kiss the floor
What's
wrong with this picture?
What's
wrong with this picture?
Farewell
the ashtray girl
Forbidden
snowflake
Beware
this troubled world
Watch
out for earthquakes
Goodbye
to open sores
To
broken centre floor
We
know we miss her
We
miss her picture
Sometimes
it's faded
Disintegrated
For
fear of growing old
Sometimes
it's faded
Assassinated
For
fear of growing old
Farewell
the ashtray girl
Angelic
fruitcake
Beware
this troubled world
Control
your intake
Goodbye
to open sores
Goodbye
and furthermore
We
know we miss her
We
miss her picture
Sometimes
it's faded
Disintegrated
For
fear of growing old
Sometimes
it's faded
Assassinated
For
fear of growing old
Hang
on
Though
we try
It's
gone
Hang
on
Though
we try
It's
gone
Sometimes
it's faded
Disintegrated
For
fear of growing old
Sometimes
it's faded
Assassinated
For
fear of growing old
Can't
stop growing old...
The
sea's evaporated
Though
it comes as no surprise
These
clouds we're seeing
Their
explosions in the sky
It
seems it's written
But
we can't read between the line
Hush
It's
okay
Dry
your eye
Dry
your eye
Soulmate
dry your eye
Dry
your eye
Soulmate
dry your eye
Cause
soulmates never die
This
one world vision
Turns
us in to compromise
What
good's religion
When
it's each other we despise
Damn
the government
Damn
the killing
Damn
the lies
Hush
It's
okay
Dry
your eyes
Dry
your eyes
Soulmate
dry your eyes
Dry
your eyes
Soulmate
dry your eyes
Cause
soulmates never die
Soulmates
never die
Never
die
Soulmates
never die
Never
die...
Soulmates
never die
Soulmates
never die
Soulmates
never die
Soulmates never die
Since
we're feeling so anesthetised
In
our comfort zone
Reminds
me of the second time
That
I followed you home
We're
running out of alibis
From
the second of May
Reminds
me of the summer time
On
this winter's day
See
you at the bitter end
See
you at the bitter end
Every
step we take that's synchronized
Every
broken bone
Reminds
me of the second time
That
I followed you home
You
shower me with lullabies
As
you're walking away
Reminds
me that it's killing time
On
this fateful day
See
you at the bitter end
See
you at the bitter end
See
you at the bitter end
See
you at the bitter end
From
the time we intercepted
Feels
more like suicide...
See you at the bitter end
It
seems we're here I
Miss
you something rotten
The
stinks are here
It's
guaranteed all's forgotten
Down
here
Down
here it's clear that your uncut
Don't
fear
Don't
fear, keep all this forgotten
Face
down
Face
down
Face
down, I miss you something rotten
Face
down
Face
down, this crown is broken rotten
Down
here, down here, I know its not, it's all forgotten
Down
here, down here, face down, I miss you something rotten
Down
here, down here, it stinks, it stinks of something rotten
Don't
fear, don't fear, keep all this forgotten
There's
something rotten down here
There's
something rotten down here
There's
something rotten down here
There's
something rotten down here...
Beauty
lies inside the eye of another youthful dream
That
doesn't sell it's soul for self-esteem
That's
not plasticine
Beauty
lies inside desire and every wayward heart redeemed
That
doesn't sell it's soul for self-esteem
That's
not plasticine
Don't
forget to be the way you are (x4)
The
only thing you can rely on is that you can't rely on anything
Don't
go and sell your soul for self-esteem
Don't
be plasticine
Don't
forget to be the way you are (x4)
And
don't forget to be the way you are (x4)
The way you are...
Remember
me when you're the one who's silver screen
Remember
me when you're the one you always dreamed
Remember
me when everyone's noses start to bleed
Remember
me, special needs
Just
19 and sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just
19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour
Remember
me when you clinch your movie deal
And
think of me stuck in my chair that has four wheels
Remember
me through flash photography and screams
Remember
me, special dreams
Just
19 this sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just
19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour
Just
19 and sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just
19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour
Remember
me...
Just
19 this sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just
19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour
Just
19 and sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just
19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour
Remember
me...

be your water bathing you clean
The

I'll
be your ether you'll breathe me in
You

So

Liquid

Shores

So
I'll be your liqour demons will drown
And

be your lover, I'll be yours x3

Yes

'Cause
I'm cursed with second sight so
Walk

You

Walk

It's
that desease of the age
It's
that desease that we crave
Alone
at the end of the race
We
catch the last bus home
Corporate
America wakes
Coffee
republic in case
We
open the latch on the gate
Of
the hole that we call our home
Protect
me from what I want...
Protect
me protect me
Maybe
we're victims of fate
Remember
when we'd celebrate
We'd
drink and get high until late
And
now we're all alone
Wedding
bells ain't gonna chime
With
both of us guilty of crime
And
both of us sentenced to time
And
now we're all alone
Protect
me from what I want...
Protect
me protect me
Protect
me from what I want...
Protect
me protect me
Protect
me from what I want...
Protect
me protect me
Protect
me from what I want...
Protect
me protect me
Come
on Balthazaa I refuse to let you die
Come
on fallen star I refuse to let you die
Cos
that's wrong and I've been waiting far too long
It's
wrong I've been waiting far too long
For
you to be..be me..be..be mine
For
you to be mine..be mine..for you to be mine
And
it's wrong, I've been waiting far too long
It's
wrong, I've been waiting far too long
For
you to be..be me..be
All
the centrefolds that you can't afford
Have
long since waved their last goodbyes
All
the centrefolds that you can't afford
You've
long since faded from their eyes
So
be..be mine x2
Come
back to me awhile
Change
your style again
Come
back to me awhile
Change
your taste in men
It's
been this way since Christmas Day
Dazzled,
doused in gin
Change
your taste in men
Come
back to me awhile
Change
your style again
Come
back to me awhile
Change
your taste in men
I'm
killing time on Valentine's
Waiting
for the day to end
Change
your taste in men
Come
back to me awhile
Change
your style again
Come
back to me awhile
Change
your taste in men
It's
been this way since Christmas Day
Dazzled,
doused in gin
Change
your taste in men x10
Days
before you came
Freezing
cold and empty
Towns
that change their name
And
a horn of plenty
Days
before you came
Counting
breaths inside me
Even
crack cocaine
Couldn't
start to hide me
Won't
you join me now
Baby's
looking torn and frayed
Join
the masquerade
Join
the masquerade
Won't
you join me now
Baby's
looking to get laid
Join
the masquerade
Join
the masquerade
Days
before you came
It
always seemed enticing
to
be naked and profane
there
is no denying
Days
before you came
Thunderbolts
and lightning
Each
day a brand new vein
Each
tourniquet colliding
Didn't
what you anyway x 4
Won't
you join me now
Baby's
looking torn and frayed
Join
the masquerade
Join
the masquerade
Won't
you join me now
Baby's
looking to get laid
Join
the masquerade
Join
the masquerade
Days
before you came (repeat)
Coming
up beyond belief
On
this coronary thief
More
than just a leitmotif
More
chaotic, no relief
I'll
describe the way I feel
Weeping
wounds that never heal
Can
the savior be for real
Or
are you just my seventh seal?
No
hesitation, no delay
You
come on just like special K
Just
like I swallowed half my stash
I
never ever want to crash
No
hesitation, no delay
You
come on just like special K
Now
you're back with dope demand
I'm
on sinking sand
Gravity
No
escaping gravity
Gravity
No
escaping... not for free
I
fall down... hit the ground
Make
a heavy sound
Every
time you seem to come around
I'll
describe the way I feel
You're
my new Achilles heel
Can
this savior be for real
Or
are you just my seventh seal?
No
hesitation, no delay
You
come on just like special K
Just
like I swallowed half my stash
I
never ever want to crash
No
hesitation, no delay
You
come on just like special K
Now
you're back with dope demand
I'm
on sinking sand
Gravity
No
escaping gravity
Gravity
No
escaping... not for free
I
fall down... hit the ground
Make
a heavy sound
Every
time you seem to come around
No
escaping gravity
No
escaping gravity
No
escaping gravity
No
escaping gravity
Gravity

Revolution,
dope, guns, fucking in the streets (x2)
Aces
take your time
Queens
are left for dead
Jacks
can stand in line
And
touch themselves instead
Aces
take your pity
And
keep it warm in bed
Aces
take your time
Cut
the deck
The
queens left for dead
Soft
and wet, scarf tied to the bed
Jack
is all tragic when he stands alone
Feeling
demonic harmonic in a no go zone
You
look well suited like you came to win
Lust,
spite and malice, your degrees of sin
Cruising
for pity and looking pretty as fuck
Ace
take your chances
Queen
wish you luck
Aces
take your time
Draw
your final breath
Jacks
are feeling fine
They've
clubbed themselves to death
Aces
take your pity
You
sleep with it instead
Aces
take your time
You
can play your card, I'll hold onto mine
Tied
up in the reasons, Ace take your time
Looks
turn to lovers, flames into fires
Jack
loves his tragedy, Queen her desires
You
look well suited like you came to win
Lust,
spite and malice, your degrees of sin
Wrap
me in your trauma and I may just give you mine
Queen
take your chances
Ace
take your time
Dope,
guns, fucking in the streets (Revolution)
Everything
will blow tonight
Either
friend or foe, tonight
Cut
the deck

I
was never faithful
And
I was never one to trust
Borderlining
schizo
And
guaranteed to cause a fuss
I
was never loyal
Except
to my own pleasure zone
I'm
forever black-eyed
A
product of a broken home
I
was never faithful
And
I was never one to trust
Borderline
bipolar
Forever
biting on your nuts
I
was never grateful
That's
why I spend my days alone
I'm
forever black-eyed
A
product of a broken home (Broken home)
Black-eyed
(repeat)

I
wrote this novel just for you
It
sounds pretentious but it's true
I
wrote this novel just for you
That's
why it's vulgar
That's
why it's blue
And
I say, thank you
And
I say, thank you
I
wrote this novel just for Mom
For
all the mommy things she's done
For
all the times she showed me wrong
For
all the time she sang god's song
And
I say thank you Mom
Hello
Mom
Thank
you Mom
Hi
Mom
I
read a book about Uncle Tom
Where
a whitey bastard made a bomb
But
now Ebonics rule our song
Those
motherfuckers got it wrong
And
I ask
Who
is uncle Tom?
Who
is uncle Tom?
Who
is uncle Tom?
You
are
I
read a book about the self
Said
I should get expensive help
Go
fix my head
Create
some wealth
Put
my neurosis on the shelf
But
I don't care for myself
I
don't care for myself
I
don't care for myself
I
don't care
I
wrote this novel just for you
I'm
so pretentious, yes it's true
I
wrote this novel just for you
Just
for you
Just
for you
Run
away from all your boredom
Run
away from all your whoredom and wave
Your
worries, and cares, goodbye
All
it takes is one decision
A
lot of guts, a little vision to wave
Your
worries, and cares goodbye
It's
a maze for rats to try x2
It's
a race, a race for rats
A
race for rats to die
It's
a race, a race for rats
A
race for rats to die
Sick
and tired of Maggie's farm
She's
a bitch, with broken arms to wave
Your
worries, and cares, goodbye
It's
a maze for rats to try x2
It's
a race, a race for rats
A
race for rats to die
It's
a race, a race for rats
A
race for rats to die x3
Burn
away
Run
away (repeat)
