Crowd Surf Off A Cliff
Crowd Surf Off a Cliff
Cursed with a love that you can’t express. It’s not for a fuck or a
kiss.
Rather give the world away than wake up lonely, everywhere in every way
I see you with me. Crowd surf off a cliff, land out on the ice. Crowd
surf off to sea, float toward the beach. If you find me, hide me, I
don’t know where I’ve been. If you find me, hide me, I don’t know
where I’ve been.
Are we breathing, are we breathing, are we wasting our breath. It
won’t be enough to be rich. Rather give the world away than wake up
lonely, everywhere in every way I see you with me. All the babies
tucked away in their beds, we’re out here screaming, “The life that you
thought through is gone!” Can’t wind down, the ending outlasting the
move. I wake up lonely.
Crowd surf off a cliff, land out on the ice. Crowd surf off to sea,
float toward the beach. If you find me, hide me, I don’t know where
I’ve been.
When you phone me tell me everything I did. If I’m sorry you lost me
you’d better make it quick ‘cause this call costs a fortune and it’s
late where you live, it’s late where you live.
Detectives Daughter
Detective Daughter
She was calling around to find half an hour. She walked right into my
mirror. Said she’s here to waste time, I said, “That’s fine.”
listen:
to thy self be true to thy self be true to thy self be true
Every thread, every hair rearranged to resemble you. You could help
her!
Detective daughter copy- please don’t be me.
There are so many skirts under the table. None of these long legs are
mine.
She calls around, finds me crying. Wish I were capable of lying
sometimes.
Hide out and run when no one’s looking. Hide out. Love is hell, hell
is love. Hell is asking to be loved.
She’s still calling around to find half an hour. She’ll always have a
place in my mirror. She’s got no more time now she wants mine but I’m
all out too,
to thy self be true to thy self be true to thy self be true
aaaaaahhhhhhhhh
it’s no big deal

Nowhere and Nothing
Nothing & Nowhere
Sketch of your faces I still don’t know you, you aren’t permanent. You
want all of our moments stolen, blind alleys and hallways to basements.
How are you gonna hide till you disappear? Nothing and nowhere is
golden.
Apartments are cages I still don’t know what is permanent. Maybe all my
possessions were precious. Truth is, all my possessions I somehow lost
them.
Been traveling so light, when we’re floating by it seems nothing and
nowhere is golden.
Some say we’re lost in space, some say we’re falling off the page
Some say our life is insane but it isn’t insane on paper
Playgrounds are graveyards and all of our scars are permanent. There’s
no replacement for places. I’ll always love you, you’re mine. Numb is
the new high, all memories die out ‘till nothing and nowhere is golden.
Some say we always only wanna get off, some say our hands are much too
soft.
Some say our life is insane but it isn’t insane on paper.
Some say our hair is in our eyes, some say we’re out of our little
minds. Some say our life is insane but it isn’t insane to have to ask.
Our Hell
Our Hell
First went wrong is hard to find
We’re paralyzed, we apologize
Our hell is a good life
Last went wrong, where’s my prize under the lights
Can we call it in?
We’ll be on the road
Can we stop?
When we stop my back will turn your face toward the fence
What I thought it was it isn’t now
All this weight, is honest worse
We’re moderate, we modernize
till our hell is a good life
All we know what to forget… how to do right
Coloring in the black hole
Can’t we stop, when we stop
My hands will shake, my eyes will burn
My throat will ache, watching you turn
From me toward your friends
What I thought it was it isn’t now
What I thought it was it isn’t
Punishment to stall what is done
What I thought was in is missing out
What I thought it was it isn’t now
There’s a pattern in the system
There’s a bullet in the gun
That’s why I tried to save you
But it can’t be done
Reading In Bed
Reading in Bed
who’s in a bad mood who’s in a taxi turning the clock back avoiding a
fight with this man he is meeting stands in the lobby counting his
questions in the neon light sinking under the river the sewer line
touches the edge of the suburbs back to the beach where a family is
waiting on rumors of summer
lay out a blanket bring something to feed the birds
with all the luck you’ve had why are your songs so sad you sing from a
book you were reading in bed and took to heart all of your lives unled
reading in bed
The Last Page
The Last Page
Hover through the foggy vapors till I see you in a dream singing
animals to sleep. By the way, it’s over without you. I’m in the way,
I’m in my way.
Lights out till midnight, sleep all day. Dark and quiet only the owls
are watching only the sky is up and I’m leaving for a place from
another time just to be near you just to be near you just to be near
you but I’m in the way, I’m in the way. Don’t become the one you
hated. Death is absolutely safe. A billion bibles mark the last page.
Got to roll through the days without you here
I get a shock, shock hurts to heal
Got to roll through the weeks without you here
I get a shock, shock hurts to heal
Got to roll through the months without you here
I get a shock, shock hurts to heal
The Lottery
I only wanted what everyone wanted since bras started burning up ribs
in the sixties. Favors are flying, faces are falling, all I desire is
to never be waiting. If that’s a crime let’s commit it. There’s a new
crime, sexual suicide. When our underwire radio tears into their
international airwaves Boredom will Die! Ears will Bleed! All they
desire is to give and to please. There’s a new crime, sexual suicide.
There’s a new crime, let’s commit it while we’re waiting on the next
day, to begin it in the best way.
There’s a new crime, sexual suicide. There’s a new crime, let’s commit
it.
Don’t worry, Heather, about forever. Don’t worry about me.
It’s a lottery baby, everybody roll the dice
It’s a lottery baby, everybody roll the dice
Will we always be like little kids running group to group asking who
loves me? Don’t know who loves me! It’s pathetic. It’s impossible.
Like girls in stilettos like girls in stilettos like girls in stilettos
trying to run
The Maid Needs A Maid
The Maid Needs a Maid
bros before hos disagree on the sidelines fight for a fee the man needs
a maid the maid needs a maid. bros before hos is a rule read the
guidelines you trouble me your breasts heave when you sing your mouth
should be working for me for free.
sewing up the fold ‘cause I’ve been laid up, will you put on the fire
for me, draw the bath and remind me to eat? You won’t need a real job,
you won’t need a real job because I would love to pay for you, you
could be a good wife to me. I would love to pay for you, you are the
maid for me.

Winning
To never open a book always reading a magazine. Outspend betting if it
looks like winning you haven’t been. Knives don’t have your back I
wait and I count the knives don’t have your back. I wait and I count
to the last breath we take. What we made doesn’t make sense. What’s a
wolf without a pack?
Open your chest and take the heart from it, open your chest. What’s
bad? We’ll fix it. What’s wrong? We’ll make it alright, alright. It’s
gone,
we’ll find it. Takes so long, we’ve got time, all the time.
Some part of you, too small to lose
Some part of you, too small to lose
All of us, all of you
All of us, all of you counting to the last breath we take. What we
made doesn’t make sense What’s a wolf without a pack? Open your chest
and take the heart from it. When you talk can I tape you? How’d you
get what we don’t know? We don’t know how to help, only know how to
hound. Nose to the grindstone, grindstone to the ground.
Don’t even visit that place they’ll sharpen their teeth on your smile.
I’m glad you didn’t, all our songs will be lullabyes in no time.
