Warm Machine

I memorize the basics 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 bored to lose
this is the life 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 slide warm alright now
cos I feel alright I memorize the basics
this is the night this is the sound
here comes the warm 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 through
wherever she sends me
wherever the plane
perfect black dress
perfect grave
what can I say what can
I do I did it to myself
I did it all confused
Jesus online
wires around the world
feel invincible
computer car and girl
to be perfect just like you
whenever she comes with me
whenever we break
dress up my apathy pretend we're great
Jesus online wires around the world
feel invincible computer carbon girl

The Chemicals Between Us

I want you to remember a love so full it could send us always
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 lonelier place 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 us lying in this bed
the chemicals displaced there is no lonelier face than lying in this bed
chemicals between us chemicals between us than lying in this bed
we're of hollow men we are the naked ones
we never meant you harm never meant you wrong
I'd like to thank all of my lovers lovers lovers
the chemicals between us the army of achievers lying in this bed
the chemicals displaced there is no lonelier place than lying in this bed
chemicals between us chemicals between us than lying in this bed

English Fire

world news, world news
well you said let's be free
well you said I'll be me
death row hearts
are hard to mend why shoot myself
for your sins
all of my love
well you said retribute
well you said substitute
burn myself on your bed
your crown of thorns my crown of lead
I'll wake up before I drown
all my love let's be free
we'll hang ourselves by the English fire
we'll hang ourselves
all my love let's be free
I'll wake up before I drown
all my love let's be free

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 space travel
she's coming over me
they're burning the tenements
topless progressive thinking
political holes got 6 but pray for 7
my future lies
in space travel
she's coming over me I employ spies
to stroll the gravel
they never want to leave
my future lies
I'm scared of the government
my future lies
in space travel
there's someone after me
I employ spies in silver tassels
they never seen that pleased
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

Prizefighter

there are days when I fear for my life
I thinks 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
sad you're not around
the best is yet to come
better get tour feet back in the ground
prisoner or passenger a free man or
scavenger I'm a prizefighter
who will be there cover when you fall
we're all chasing something
how come you never call
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
it situ. in place
now sit back unwind and relax
big cheese is all greed
it's all relative what you needed
happy birthday here's your nerve gas
all the fisherman and their families
all sickly crumbling cerebellum
it's all over for urang-a-tans
looks like they're back on the street again
mistrusted, disruptive
rape land
and kill good habitat
world weary, world broken
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 sickly
growing sentimental
invaded, downgraded
your bile lands
right in my head
uncalled for, unwanted
my sinking zero tolerance
it's all over for urang-a-tans
looks like they're back on the street again

Altered States

living in a cage washing in a bird bath
sinking in a fish bowl 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 as 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
a whole lot more 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

Dead Meat

your 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 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 died 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 you 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 want to 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 x2 you in the sea on a decline breaking the waves
watching the lights go down letting the cables sleep
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
we'll wrap the world around it
if heaven is on the way x2
I'm a stranger in this town
I'm a stranger in this town...

Mindchanger

help me sometime, I need that much
don't you think it's strange
how can we turn dust
think it's strange, like really strained
we'll never run when
we've got all these broken bones
it's hard to let you go
but I will make you change your mind
think of me sometimes, I'd never tell
do you recognise 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 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
I will make you change your mind
