the house you built for me
is falling down

who falls in love with everyone
for a day
when she gets bored
she runs away

i knew i'd seen you here before
you're a replica of every other girl
you use everyone for your own design
now i know you were an actress all the time
you love everyone
when they're in love with you
you love everyone
to be in love with you
the fruit is dying on the vine
oh me, how am i so blind
fell for a crooked star
that could never be mine
you love everyone
who's in love with you
you love everyone
to be in love with you

Beautiful Shell
00:57
|

|
Your cool newborn death house
burdened with the resonance
of your dancing syllables
it wasn't what you said it was how
everyone's trying to please someone
someone usually just turns out to be themselves
you painted your walls the way you
wanted to see yourself
you built this house around you
so you could try to grow into what you say you are
but it's still just a mirage
i once said that i don't mind your shell
only now do i understand my mistake
i was attracted to a beautiful shell
but all that is inside is ugly

Before I Sleep Again

before i sleep again
lick my painful lips
haunting down the line
can't wait to breathe
can't wait to release
can't wait to leave you behind
before i disappear
some things that i want clear
nothing you ever said was real
you don't care about anyone
except for one other one
pushing too hard on me
falling backwards and behind

You're Damaged

you had everyone fooled
you made me feel like such a fool
you're damaged
you led me on for so long
now you pretend you didn't
know what was going on
you're damaged

everyone is smiling at me
everyone is so happy
because they all believe their own lies
i don't want anything you got
everyone thinks you're beautiful
i don't wanna be your mirror anymore
never met a bigger attention whore
i don't want anything you got
|

|
want to die in the green leaves
among the dirty branches
making me cling to heights
that could never be my own
but i always pretended anyway
sky white sky
hovering and oblivious to me
i chase you just because you don't care
the ground knows me too well
and wants me and waits for me
with gardens for arms
offering to break my fall
and wasn't it you who kissed me
when you knew you were contagious?
for soft madness we all bend
ourselves into different shapes
i wish i could draw you
as pretty as you really are
rose-cheeked smile when you're shy
i love that side of you
but you can never really hide from me
because i know you too well
you burn yourself to stay warm

following a signal I received in France
watching all the traffic going by
your hair is done in sequins
you wear leather pants
soldiers at the crossroads wave goodbye
and it's already over in october
and it's already christmas every year
it's always good to sing when you are sober
it's always good to wipe away the tears
sometimes I think we'll all go up in smoke
owing that the passage is not clear
yhere is a man who probably will choke
on the words that sound so violently sincere
(chorus)
there was a woman who wore my ring upon her hand
warning me to change the way I feel
right on the surface of everything I'd planned
she cut too deep to ever really heal
(chorus)
if I see you, I'll nod to some passing face of god
who never really answered me in prayer
the savior is quite odd, he prefers the prod
his kingdom is made out of thin air
(chorus)

Creator
01:32

i once knew everything
i once was god
they come to my kingdom
and i give them a nod
i created all the lovers
and i created pain
i created all the rainbows
and i created the rain
i created all the people
who fight wars in my name
but i won't stop the future
because that's the price that you pay
i once knew everything
i once was god
give you a planet
so you can fill it with smog
give you a forest
so you can cut it down
an ocean to swim in
but you would rather drown
i once was powerful
i once had hope
i once was everything
but that was a long time ago

Streetless
02:28
|
|||
|
thick parking lots
saturated with rubbery heat
streetless wandering sweating
summer girls through grass
last night i dreamt i licked sweat
from the crease of your back
as you smiled, dreaming of my hands
i kissed your hair as you left
it's not where i wanted
but i wanted to be slow
so pour another drink and dissolve into soft madness
maybe you could stay drunk enough
to love me
maybe i could keep you
for a little while
maybe i'm crazy to reach so high
to want to own the sun
and have it to myself
but for something so wonderful
i just can't stop myself from trying

i don't want to die
i just hate everyone
i don't care about you
and all the stupid shit you say
i don't want to be numb
i just don't give a fuck
you got a soul that's warm
you always speak the truth
you will find a way
i hope you do
i don't want to die
i just hate everything
i don't want to be numb
i just don't give a fuck

I'm the Only One I Know
02:08

i really have nothing to do
so i sit around and think of you
nothing is the way it should be
so i just try to let my mind be free
i don't know you but i saw you smile
something beautiful to ease my mind awhile
take a train down to Carolina
never knew happiness but i'm gonna find it
don't know anyone but myself
don't see a point in knowing anybody else
feel like wasting time is all i do
i'd really like to waste some time with you
i don't know you but i saw you smile
something beautiful to ease my mind awhile

Yard Song

i build my mind
you'd rather shut yours down
i build bridges
you'd rather burn them down
as i expand
you choose to drown
could've been my soul
my ghost
(but i know)
could've been my death
but i never would've let it

Something I Dreamed
03:37
|
|||
|
been thinking about all the times
you told me i was a mess
those were all the times
when i felt the best
when the weather is better
we just might have a blast
for now we've got plenty
of laughing gas
all my sick friends
say we have no food
they just keep on singing
and playing the blues
all my boring friends
say we need something to do
they all forgot how to dream
a long time ago
it's not nothing
to dream of something
it's not nothing
a girl walked behind me
in a dream of mine
i turned around
she was singing this very song
i told her i liked the tune and melody
she grinned at me slightly
and then she was gone
in all of my wonders
i'd really have to say
that dreaming is just like dying
in certain ways
sometimes it's terrible
and sometimes it's great
but your dreams and your afterlife
are what you choose to make
