Morning always seems too stale to justify Lament blossoms, hours minutes of our lives Broken thoughts run through your empty mind At least a beaten dog knows how to lie I feel like I'm missing pieces of sleep
A memory fades to a pale landscape You were an extinction, a desert heat A blind illness of my anxiety Endless hours in bed, no peace in this mind
No one knows the hell where innocence dies Fragments crawling like cobwebs on stone Blows away the safety only a sleeping pill knows I feel like I'm missing pieces of sleep
A memory fades to a pale landscape You were an extinction, a desert heat A blind illness of my anxiety I feel like I'm missing pieces of sleep
A memory fades to a pale landscape You were an extinction, a desert heat A blind illness of my anxiety
FROM DESPAIR TO WHERE I write this alone on my bed I've poisoned every room in the house The place is quiet and so alone Pretend there's something worth waiting for There's nothing nice in my head The adult world took it all away Wake up with same spit in my mouth Cannot tell if it is real or not I try and walk in a straight line An imitation of dignity
From despair to where
Outside open mouthed crowds Pass each other as if they're drugged Down pale corridors of routine Where life falls unatoned The weak kick like straw Till the world means less and less Words are never enough Just cheap tarnished glitter I try and walk in a straight line An imitation of dignity A cripple walks in a straight line
Life has been unfaithful And it all promised so so much I am a relic I am just a petrified cry Wheeled out once a year, a cenotaph souvenir The applause nails down my silence La tristesse durera Scream to a sigh, to a sigh La tristesse durera Scream to sigh, to a sigh I see liberals I am just a fashion accessory People send postcards And they all hope I'm feeling well I retreat into self-pity, it's so easy Where they patronise my misery La tristesse durera Scream to a sigh, to a sigh La tristesse durera Scream to a sigh, to a sigh La tristesse durera Scream to a sigh, to a sigh La tristesse durera Scream to a sigh, to a sigh I sold my medal It paid a bill It sells at market stalls Parades Milan catwalks The sadness will never go Will never go away Baby it's here to stay La tristesse durera Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
Your ritual everyday A mild shower soak in aftershave Best clothes do your best Look in the mirror go on Belittle yourself yourself yourself Belittle yourself yourself yourself You go on day after day Dreaming on a lie That you keep locked inside Of yourself Yourself Yourself Of yourself Yourself Yourself Can you sleep tonight Cast aside for some pouting young pup Sink into a slurred veneer Alcoholic haze so now Least you can like yourself yourself Least you can like yourself yourself You go on day after day Reservoirs of guilt That your fixed grin always hides And yourself Yourself Yourself Of yourself Yourself Yourself And yourself Yourself Yourself Of yourself Yourself Yourself You look at ad's all day Everyone is perfect and you're so lame Free scent burns your skin But no smell can really cover sin Too many teenage holes to fill Too many teenage holes to fill You go on day after day Speak to your despised Blanking your loved ones And yourself Yourself Yourself And yourself Yourself Yourself And yourself
Childbirth tears upon her muscle Very first second a screaming icon Babies in time barely even recognise Words that once stroked now bruising tired lips
My idea of love comes from A childhood glimpse of pornography Though there is no true love Just a finely tuned jealousy
Life becoming a landslide Ice freezing nature dead Life becoming a landslide I don't wanna be a man
Everyday more numb to agony This the howl this the sigh of the lonely One day I realise oil on canvas Can never paint a petal so so delicate
My idea of love comes from A childhood glimpse of pornography Though there is no true love Just a finely tuned jealousy
Life becoming a landslide Ice freezing nature dead Life becoming a landslide I don't wanna be a man
My idea of love comes from A childhood glimpse of pornography Though there is no true love Just a finely tuned jealousy
Life becoming a landslide A mile empty inside Life becoming a landslide Desire on its knees
Roses in the hospital Try to pull my finger nails out Roses in the hospital I want to cling to something soft Roses in the hospital Progressing like a constant war Roses in the hospital There's no one to feel ashamed for

So cool the new sound of the decade Thinks it's so fresh not a post Elvis still All taste is nothing-old pictures blow dried Rebellion it always sells at a profit I am a face of fashion in Soho Square My tie is Paul Smith or Gaultier My cheeks blood red as my favourite port But hey cocaine keeps cholesterol at bay

Dismayed - dispossessed Life becomes calvinist So sparkle and believe Linguistics die easily Intravenous agnostic Intravenous agnostic Intravenous agnostic Intravenous
Things get clear when I feel free When whatever's next comes easily When gentle hands give life to me When your eyes fill with tiny tears When I'm this still you are my life So at ease in the midnight sky But my insides will look like war Paralysed except through my thoughts So why so sad - you live and you love So why so sad - dependent on above Searching for the dead sea scrolls So why, so why so sad My smile as real as a hyena's Burns an expressway to my skull But I'll stick myself together again Spirit so low I no longer pretend So why so sad - you live and you love So why so sad - dependent on above Searching for the dead sea scrolls So why, so why so sad
So why so sad - you live and you love So why so sad - dependent on above Searching for the dead sea scrolls So why, so why so sad
