I can hear the birds singing to me, outside.
Talk to cats for a while.
Try so hard to turn a life, inside out.
Everyone knows when to speak.
But I don't see too much these days.
'Cause I don't want to.
"Let me go" she said.
And I'll find it.

Just looking for a story, something "ours"
Something to hold in times of weakness
Just a prayer, a hope
A simple glimpse of a guiding light
Just looking for some truth
To battle all the lies that showed themselves
I'm one of them I have always been
But maybe I'm just looking for anything else
Lost again in the same old lines
I remember how it was once
But memories aren't doing any good
Pray the one my soul to keep
Servants' service
Too scared to sleep because of the creep
Scarred surface
Well in the right now
When I'm next to your head I see white
Heaven's presence

Oh, show me the way to the next whiskey bar
Oh, don't ask why, oh, don't ask why!
For we must find the next whiskey bar
For if we don't find the whiskey bar
I tell you we must die
I tell you we must die
I tell you

Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say good-bye
We've lost our good old momma
And must have whiskey, oh you know why!

"Pretty boy" = a client of a prostitute
"Little girl" (replacement in some cover versions) = British slang for whiskey

Poison yourself
Revel in waste
Poison yourself
In the name of evil
Destroy yourself
I will always be the reason to hate yourself
Mirrors will oppress your mind
And follow all that you hide
Blindly, step inside a subconscious warfare
To guide the oblivious
Mirrors of torture
Unforgivingly expose your sin;
Your suicide by the mirror's shattered blade
I won't heal given time
I won't try to change your mind
I won't feel better in the cold light of day
But I wouldn't stop you if you wanted to stay
My sweetheart is made of clay
She is an international model
She looks pretty as a flower in May
Through the bottom of a bottle
Sometimes I can see her face
Staring off into space
She won't look at me
That's best, don't look at me
My sweetheart is a figurine
She's a dancing diva
I got my eyes closed on a nicotine high
Waiting for a curtain to rise
Sometimes she sings out loud
And I feel like a big crowd
She won't notice me
That's best, don't notice me
Kings of our emptiness, the flagellants align
Their mouths fill with ashes and death's tongue
Roses in the sun
Falling one by one
Every thorn stung
I was so numb
I almost didn't see you come
When the walls around me were caving in
You saved my life tonight
When there's nothing left but pouring rain
You saved my life tonight
And I found my heart inside your hands
You saved my life tonight
You showed me how to feel again
You saved my life tonight
Hearts on the run
Wasted and young
Every mistake stung
'Til I was numb
I almost didn't see you come
When the walls around me were caving in
You saved my life tonight
When there's nothing left but pouring rain
You saved my life tonight
And I found my heart inside your hands
You saved my life tonight
You showed me how to feel again
You saved my life tonight

He stood still and never ran
Looking for himself in that garbage can
Living with opportunities blown
The company he keeps leaves him all alone
No cure and no way to heal
A forgettable past and a bad deal
He gave up on himself, they gave up on him
He's up shit creek and doesn't know how to swim
Quick!
The Magnetic Fields
You better think of something quick before I don't love you no more
Quick! Before I walk out that door
Quick! Before it all ends in jeers
What a waste of all those beers
You better think of something quick because my suitcase is packed
Quick! Because I'm through being attacked
Are you really prepared to lose
All this just to air your views?
We're on the brink of something
Get me a drink of something
Quick! Between your outrageous remarks
Like the mating calls of sarcastic sharks
Quick! Before you can't take that back
Just before it all goes black
You better think of something quick before the midnight bell chimes
You're living in dangerous times
Torture me for your amusement
About who will pay the rent
Who will pay the rent
Who will pay the rent
Who will pay the rent
Who will pay the rent
Who will pay the rent
Hello again, friend of a friend, I knew you when
Our common goal was waiting for the world to end
Now that the truth is just a rule that you can bend
You crack the whip, shape-shift and trick the past again
Send you my love on a wire
Lift you up, every time, everyone, ooh, pulls away, ooh
From you
The moon tonight feels my revenge
To summon forth my time of sin and hate
Impaled are their wings
Raped is the soul
From the bleeding holy womb
At one with night, for I’m with Death
Eyes now bleed
In the color and sight of terror
The moon tonight screams with revenge
I’ve entered your dreams out of fear
Joy-sterilised by apathy
Monotonous, death-bringing concrete
My heart beats contentiously
Nausea emerges from movement
A soul coloured like ash
A city, a block of wretchedness
Continuous misery
I love you
I packed the bags below my eyelids
Soaked in ultraviolets, smoking Ultra-Violence
No compliance, oh I'm so defiant
(Vampires knock-knock, but I never let them in)
I packed the bags for frozen climates
Full of token triumphs, I show to those who spite it
Spineless, with their multiple disguises
(Vampires talk-talk, but I never question them)
They look so ugly on the inside
Giving me their lip while I'm swimming in the riptide
Ad-vice in my ear and out the other
Hearing what they mutter, peering from the shutters
Werewolves underneath, skin I wear, upper-teeth
Bicuspids coming like stalagmites, so fuck with me
In the company of wolves, you don't trust the ones you know
So I'm low, a hundred feet below
I stand alone, burned every bridge over the troubled water
No longer hiding from my personality disorder
A stronger tide is coming, I've been running
Trying to function fine without my mind climbing out this fucking corner
I was born a thorn away from the rotten petals
A forgotten rebel, craft in the absence of heaven's heavy hands
To develop an evident level of benevolence
So it's probably better I sold my soul to the Devil
This is a message to anyone I met that thinks they know me:
Don't pretend to understand none of the issues that I'm holding
I was in a rush to grow up, look mom no cuts
Just a stomach in disgust and the fear that I might go nuts this year
If I don't slow up I'll see you on my way
One day this shit'll kill me but I guess that it's OK
I've lost all faith in a world so full of hate
And I don't fucking love music, I just use it to escape
I'm caught between wanting to punch someone in the face
And putting a bullet in my head to leave the human race
Everything takes its toll but there's no tolls I can take
I haven't yet found a good reason to be awake
I've given and taken and given
Now in my world of only your vision
Faces of white wrapped in delicate decay
Oh please, why won't you take me away?
Reaching toward a pale illusion
One which will never become real
Just suppose for a moment
It was not just a dream...
I know you don't know me
A nervous, wordless face brings shade to your light
But I want so bad to walk beside you
But fall back into a world where I believe
I embrace the moment, I'm in love with a dream
And toy with ideas that burn deep inside me
Because a picture is all you are to me
A picture is all you'll ever be
Your concern is not to help the people
And I'll say again, though it's been often said
Your concern is just to bring discomfort, my friend
And your policy is just a little red
Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)
(ain't he right)
It matters not to you how people suffer
And should they, you'd consider that a gain
You bring a lot of trouble to the town and then you leave
That's part of your communistic game
I detect a little communisim
I can see it in the things ya do
Communisim, socialism call it what you like
There's very little difference in the two
Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)
(ain't he right)
I like my town with a little drop of poison
Nobody knows, they're lining up to go insane
I'm all alone, I smoke my friends down to the filter
But I feel much cleaner after it rains
I'm... writing you to catch you up on places I've been
and you... held this letter, probably got excited
but there's nothing else inside it
didn't have a camera by my side this time
hoping I would see the world with both my eyes
maybe I'll tell you all about this
when I'm in the mood to lose my way... with words
today... skies are painted colors of a cowboy cliché
and strange... how clouds that look like mountains in the sky
are next to mountains anyway...
You didn't see my valentine
I sent it via pantomime
While you were watchin' someone else
I stared at you and cut myself
It's all I'll do 'cause I'm not free
A fugitive too dull too flee
I'm amorous but out of reach
A still life drawing of a peach
Nothing ever happens
Nothing ever changes
And nothing goes right
Can't stand to be alone on a Saturday night
And you know
It's a cold hard feeling
And you spent all your money
And have nothing to show
And you wish you were home
But the meter keeps running
And you know
Nothing ever happens here
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls"
And whispered in the sound of silence
She appears composed, so she is, I suppose
Who can really tell?
She shows no emotion at all
Stares into space like a dead china doll
We lean against railings
Describing the colours
And the smells of our homelands
Acting like lovers
How did we get here?
To this point of living
I held my breath
And you said something
Blacks can't be white and whites can't be black
Why you want to act like someone else?
All you gotta do is just be yourself
We're all the same color underneath
Short Dog's in the house you'd better listen to me
Never be ashamed of what you are
Proud to be black stand tall at heart
Even though some people give you no respect
Be intelligent, when you put em in check
Cause when you're ignorant, you get treated that way
And when they throw you in jail you got nothing to say
So if you don't listen it's not my fault
I'll be getting paid while you'll be paying the cost
Sitting in the jailhouse running your mouth
While me and my peoples try to get out
If you look the part you'll get the job
In last year's trousers and your old school shoes
The truth is, son, it's a buyer's market
They can afford to pick and choose
Just because you're better than me
Doesn't mean I'm lazy
Just because I dress like this
Doesn't mean I'm a communist!
The factories are closing and the army's full
I don't know what I'm going to do
But I've come to see in the Land of the Free
There's only a future for the Chosen Few
Without your love
I'm dazed in madness
Can't lose this sadness
You're tearing me apart
Tape my eyes open to force reality
Why can't you just let me eat my weight in glee?
I live inside my own world of make-believe
Kids screaming in their cradles, profanities
Some days I feel skinnier than all the other days
And some days I can't tell if my body belongs to me
I love everything
Fire spreading all around my room
My world's so bright
It's hard to breathe but that's alright
Hush
sh
With my ego in my gut
My babbling mouth would wash it up
(But now I've started learning how)
I keep it shut
My door was never locked
Until one day a trigger come, cocking
(But now I've started learning how)
I keep it shut
Wide eyes would clean and dust
Things that decay, things that rust
(But now I've started learning how)
I keep 'em shut
I keep 'em shut
I opened my eyes
While you were kissing me once more than once
And you looked as sincere as a dog
Just as sincere as a dog does,
When it's the food on your lips with which it's in love
I bet you could never tell
That I knew you didn't know me that well
It is my fault you see
You never learned that much from me
Oh you silly stupid pastime of mine
You were always good for a rhyme
And from the first, to the last time, the signs
Said 'Stop' - but we went on whole-hearted
It ended bad, but I love what we started
They said 'Stop' - but we went on whole-hearted
It ended bad, but I love what we started
Gain your strength, release, and seize to be
By all means, I'll see you through me
What is fair to loose when they lost
Who are you to choose what souls costs
Walked in the store, what's everybody staring at?
They act like they never seen a motherfucker wearing black
Following a nigga and shit
Ain't this a bitch
All I wanted was some chips
I wanna take my business elsewhere
But where?
'Cause who in the hell cares
About a black man with a black need
They wanna jack me like some kind of crack fiend
I wonder if he knows that my income is more than
His pension, salary and then some
Your daughter is my number one fan
And your trife ass wife wants a life with a black man
Downstairs I feel so different
Though everything's the same
And if I don't see you soon
Then I'm going to kill myself
Perhaps I'll get over you
But I don't think I have the power
'Cause today I felt so good
Because I didn't think of you for almost an hour
Well, I know they're not your problems
But if you could help me solve them
Then I'd be so very grateful
So very grateful
I SEE SOFT CENTERED EGGS
ON UR HOTEL PLATE
I SEE METAMORPHOSIS
I SEE THE STUFF THAT U ATE
Never need a bitch, I'm what a bitch need
Tryna find the one that can fix me
I've been dodgin' death in the six speed
Amphetamine got my stummy feelin' sickly
Yeah, I want it all now
I've been runnin' through the pussy, need a dog pound
Hundred models gettin' faded in the compound
Tryna love me, but they never get a pulse down
Why? 'Cause I'm heartless
And I'm back to my ways 'cause I'm heartless
All this money and this pain got me heartless
Low life for life 'cause I'm heartless
Said I'm heartless
Tryna be a better man, but I'm heartless
Never be a weddin' plan for the heartless
Low life for life 'cause I'm heartless
Said I'm heartless
So much pussy, it be fallin' out the pocket
Metro Boomin turn this ho into a moshpit
Tesla pill got me flyin' like a cockpit
Yeah, I got her watchin'
Call me up, turn that pussy to a faucet
Duffle bags full of drugs and a rocket
Stix drunk, but he never miss a target
Photoshoots, I'm a star now
I'm talkin' Time, Rolling Stone, and Bazaar now
Sellin' dreams to these girls with their guard down
Seven years, I've been swimmin' with the sharks now
The soundtrack for then
Is a taxi for now
Cover up with the shadows
Sleeping on the floor
Goddamn, I wish I was
A little bit smarter
To be the futurebound
We'll try rewound
I wish I a little bit smarter
I wish I was...
Can I be her true love?
A concentrator
And a circuit in your lullaby
A conferencing enemy
