Oh my my
Little white lies I swear I'm gonna make it right This time It's not the radio Turn it way down low Telling me things I do not know I know Tonight you will be mine Tonight the monkey dies Tonight you will be mine Tonight the monkey dies Now who's to blame You used to be the same Now you won't let me speak your name What a shame It's a suicide Shut up and drive We're never going to make the light but it's all right Tonight you will be mine Tonight the monkey dies Tonight you will be mine Tonight the monkey dies (repeat chorus) |

See your reflection in your mind
You keep your revelations wide eyed They knew just where to draw the line You let them get you every time Though it breaks your heart We had to sell the farm Back to California where it's warm It fell around you like the stars You picked up everything they dropped And though it breaks you like a song You had some secrets of your own (repeat chorus) It's warm It's warm Though it breaks your heartv We had to sell the farm Nights were just too long With all your children gone Would it keep you strong If I said it with a song Back to California where it's warm |

Pour yourself another cup another cup another cup
And wait I can't wait forever Live your life A stupid life a stupid life a stupid life Nobody does it better Breaking everybody's heart Taking everyone apart Breaking everybody's heart Singing everybody's song All your dreams are waking up are waking up are waking up in space You can't sleep forever Every day you torture us you torture us you torture us Nothing stays together (repeat chorus) |

At times I see you, you silver rider
Sometimes your voice is not enough Your face in windows outside forever Nobody dreamed you'd save the world Nobody dreamed you'd save the world Your march is over The great destroyer She passes through you like a knife Oh take me with you You silver rider Sometimes your voice is not enough Sometimes your voice is not enough |

I can't decide and I can't hide
Make up my mind it's a waste of time Here comes the knife You better just stand back I could turn on you so fast It's a hit its got soul Steal the show with your rock n' roll With a swing like that you better just stand back I could turn on you so fast Just like diamonds in your hand I'll just cut you in the end One more step and I'll slit your neck You'll get use to it you better just stand back I could turn on you so fast I could turn on you so fast I could turn on you so fast Just like diamonds in your hand I could turn on you so fast I just cut you in the end I could turn on you so fast |

Soft from your lips to the rise of your stomach
Your lungs filled with fingers keep jamming words down my throat Nothing to steal we've got nothing to love Nothing to spill because oh we're so innocent oh Oh on the edge of Oh on the edge of I could have built you a house on the ocean The ocean repeating and receding into the sun So cut to you dead and now cut to the laughing Cut through our bodies and lastly into our oh Oh on the edge of Oh Oh on the edge of |

Before you speak
The words are plain to see Upon your skin They sing, they dance and spin So what, pray tell Will save you now Here comes that cold sunrise And at the peak We reach to cue the strings They ring So sweet They lay in plain relief So what, pray tell Will save you now Here comes that cold sunrise Here comes that cold sunrise |

The levee's breaking
Feel it shakin' like the dirt All the kids are sleeping Silent dreams beneath their heads Go to wake up screamin' Little lights above your bed Hey, keep an eye on what you say You think the words just walk away But they creep into my brain Sinking deep into my step My step I am the walrus darlin' No one ever knows my name You are the chorus sweet thing Never sing that song again Hey, keep an eye on what you say You think the words just walk away But they're creepin' through my brain Sinkin' deep into my step My step (chorus repeated) |

When I go deaf
I won't even mind I'll be all right I'll be just fine I'll stay out all night Looking at the sky I'll still have my sight Yeah, I'll still have my eyes And, we will make love We won't have to fight We won't have to speak And we won't have to lie And, I’ll stop writing songs Stop scratching out lines I won't have to think And it won't have to rhyme When I go deaf When I go deaf When I go deaf When I go deaf When I go deaf When I go deaf When I go deaf When I go deaf |

I can't see
Sing the darker of Pissing on my toes Knowing what I know I know I'm waiting Like a loyal whore Under every stone Lovers sleep alone Alone Alone Lovers sleep alone Alone Alone |

So I took my guitar
And I threw down some chords And some words I could sing without shame And I soon had a song I played it around For some friends but they all said the same They said music's for fools You should go back to school The future is prisms and math So I did what they said Now my children are fed 'Cause they pay me to do what I'm asked I forgot all my songs The words now are wrong And I burned my guitar in a rage But the fire came to rest In your white velvet breast So somehow I just know that it's safe |

I can walk into the sea
And I can choke away the memories Do I have to stay alive Just to keep our dresses white You've come to me in dreams With all the other pretty things You tell me about a savior And how his soul goes on forever And time is just a hunger It leads itself to nothing When it finally takes us over I hope we float away together Yeah, time's the great destroyer Leaves every child a bastard But when it finally takes us over I hope we float away together |
