I Have Seen The Light
01:23
|
|||
tonight we fuck or we can fight
admit defeat i know you're right
and through these battered streets we crawl
afraid to stand on blistered feet in case we fall
we're so messed up
help us out?
oh i have seen the light

Celebrated Virgins
01:37
|

for all the uninitiated
for all you fuckers that i've hated
for those doing it for the kids (that's if the money's there)
you're so righteous
i won't ask, i won't beg
for all the celebrated virgins
and for those of us still whoring ourselves
so are you uninitiated
and are you sick of simply hating?
i won't ask, i won't beg
it's not a question of what you are
it's the realisation of what you're not

Chic

they'll break their own hearts trying
if you leave them long enough
they've got the bases covered
they don't need assistance
she's dead set on romance
the black and white movie kind
complete with 1950's chic
i get caught up on what i could have been
he treats courtship like
some kind of battlefield
not content unless he's
knee-deep in bodies
so if love is war
then i've killed ten times or more
and i'd kill again
i get caught up on what i could have been
i get caught

Victory Fuck!
02:36
|
|||
red hair and good legs
and a dirty mouth, so
i'm interested
we dance like vultures
and you tell me that i'm damned now
you're a time bomb baby
i don't remember this place
but i'm fucking curious
so i take you home
and i bathe yr skin
and i clear my throat
if the sins of the flesh are
just sins of lust
then i'm going to hell
i don't remember this place
but i'm fucking curious
i'm going to hell for the things i've done

Trisexual

|

was i wrong to ask you
for you i would declare
for you i'd lose it all
did i use the right words
or was i wrong to say
and now i won't shut up
i need to know you're there
i need to know
and that song was subtle
man, i could still hear
the heart strings snapping out of time
and if i ask for answers
and you don't don't say no
i would give myself
i need to know you're there
i need to know
i need to know

Logan Vs. Chloe
00:29
|

i'll hunt you down
play in your blood
when simple pleasures just aren't enough
i spit on the past
and i reject the future
communication: it holds no worth
now simple pleasures just don't exist
i spit on the past
and i reject the future
i'll hunt you down
play in your blood

Arch Stanton's Lament
02:36
|
|||
there was a darkness
it froze my soul
and in that moment it changed us all
you were so vicious
i felt so scared
the way you kicked him and made him beg
rain will wash these fucking streets clean
i thought i saw you
around the town
your hair is short now, your knuckles bruised
you say you hate them
that they are scum
that they should go home
or else they're fucked
rain will wash these fucking streets clean

The Colossus
03:21
|
|||
the night is hot as hell
when in a crowded bar
you feel it racing through your bones
and out the clothes you wear
watch the lights go out
watch the lights go out
my words are meaningless
i'm sick of saying this
the crowd is baying for my blood
with pride i spit the lines out
i'm on fire now son
i'm on fire now
you can't understand the pressure
you can't understand it all
you move your hands away
and mutter something else
about a time, a place, a name, a face
i don't remember
watch the lights go out
watch the lights go
you can't understand the pressure
you can't understand at all

Parts Unknown
04:15
|
|||
we drove for hours
from the city lights to parts unknown
we left our families and homes
we traveled far with heavy hearts
and ended up in little towns
mostly forgotten by the world
we slept in bars and cars and corridors
with new found friends
we ate their food and stole their wine
it was a saturday
the frost lay heavy on the ground
you said you wanted to go back
I know you better than that
we traveled back along the mountains
in the freezing cold
we thought that surely we would die
i phoned my mother
and i cried and told her that i loved her
she did not understand my words
it's like you're talking in a foreign language
that you've learned
i cannot understand you boy
you said,
perhaps we should have sex to keep our bodies warm
but i just couldn't get it up
i know you better than that
