Verse 1:
Say you were ... or split in fragments
And none of the pieces will talk to you
Wouldn't you want to be who had them
Well, maybe I want that too
Chorus:
So better take the keys and drive forever
Staying ... ... future's back together
All the perfect drugs and superheroes
Wouldn't be enough to bring me up to zero
Verse 2:
Baby I ... more than patient
saying it's not a catastrophe
but I'm not the girl you put your faith in
just someone who looks like me
Chorus:
So better take the keys and drive forever
staying ... future's back together
all the perfect drugs and superheroes
wouldn't be enough to bring me up to zero
Bridge:
So get out while you can
Get out while you can
baby I'm moored in quicksand
and ... is all that I had planned
so better just go
Chorus:
Oh better take the keys and drive forever
staying ... future's back together
all the perfect drugs and superheroes
wouldn't be enough to bring me up to zero
All the kings horses and all the kings men
Couldn't put baby together again
All the kings horses and all the kings men
Couldn't put baby together again

Verse 1:
The monkey knows how you'll react
Creating want by holding back
Some reverse pyromanic
Let me try baby - try
Verse 2:
I propped my window up and down
I turned my back to in
To rifle through all that might've been
Let me try baby try
Chorus 1:
Baby please let me begin
Let me be your heroin
Hate a sinner but love the sin
Let me be your heroin
Verse 3:
We have crossed the Rubicon
Ship will wash up ...
The rats have fled but I am hanging on
Let me try baby try
Chorus 2:
Baby please let me begin
Let me be your heroin
Hate a sinner but love the sin
Let me be your heroin
Chorus 3:
Baby please let me begin
Let me be your heroin
Hate a sinner but love the sin
Let me be your heroin

Verse 1:
Lost in Space above I'm drifting and
To a place where planets shift and then erased its features lift in the glare
Verse 2:
But I'm the stuff of happy endings
that mostly bluff belief's suspending that
close enough for just pretending to care
Chorus 1:
and I'm pretending to care
when I'm not even there
gone but I don't know where
Verse 3:
Well, she's the face and I'm the double
that keeps the pace and clears the rubble that
lost in space fills up the bubble with air
Chorus 2:
by just pretending to care
like I'm not even there
gone but I don't know where
Bridge:
It spins like a sun
and then cannot tell
the lie from the ...
Chorus 3:
so baby beware
I'm just pretending to care
like I'm not even there
gone but I don't know where
Coda:
gone but I don't know where
gone but I don't know where

This is how it Goes
you'll get angry at yourself
and think you can think of something else
and I'll hear the clanging of the bells
'cause I can't stop you baby
'cause I don't have the bribery in place
no bright shiny surface to my face
so I walk .. near the marketplace
with what I'm selling lately
'cause this is how it goes
'cause it's all about trust
'cause it's all about shame
and whatever they want
don't tell them your name
Instrumental:
this is how it goes
one more failure to ...
with so many how could I object
and you ... expect
well I can't tell you baby
this is how it goes
cause it's all about trust
cause it's all about shame
and whatever they want
don't tell them your name
so I'll try to hold on
while you try to let it go
... it's gone
but baby I'll know
baby I'll know
baby I'll know
baby I'll know

Guys like me
we don't know how it feels
absentee even closing the deal
but every player there's a ... in the funnel real(?)
but never with guys like me
cuz guys like me
we look good at the game
you'll agree
with the odds on the ...
and put your money on the
bona fide heavyweight
and take it off guys like me
and take it off guys like me
the more you close but never really
looking warm but feeling chilly
you'll describe us as empassioned
when it's just a front we fashion
cuz guys like me we all vow to become
clear and free of the fife and drum
walk the circulation ... all completely ...
let's hear it for guys like me
let's hear it for guys like me
let's hear it for guys like me

Oh Maria
Sit here by the window
Stay here ...
And when we go, hold my hand, I'll take off
Tell me what I already know
That we can't talk about it
No we can't talk about it
Because ... and someone nearly fell
... and ringing Pavlov's Bell
History shows there's not a chance in hell
But ... we're only two ...
It's going
I won't let it show
... denial
believe
That we could talk about it
But we could talk about it
Because nobody knows
... and ringing Pavlov's Bell
history shows ...
Well, well, well
Oh ... if this is nothing
I'm finding it's so hard to dismiss
only you can save me
so come on baby give me ...
and let's just talk about it
I've got to talk about it
Because nobady knows
somebody nearly fell
...
and ringing PB
history shows
so tell me
that's how I nearly fell
by ringing PB
so baby show and tell
Oh ...(?)

You don't know so don't say you do
you don't
you might think that things will change
but take my word, they won't
You ... but reality intrudes
with a message for you and
it's real bad news
I was undecided like you at first
but I couldn't ... the ... thirst
you try to keep on going ... avenues
just aren't open to you
when you're real bad news
I got more ...
you can take your chances but buyer beware
and I won't make you feel better ...
...
filling ...
Baby don't ... you can get some things confused
like whose secrets are whose
and that's real bad news
real bad news
real bad news

There comes a time when you swim or sink
So I jumped in the drink
'Cause I couldn't make myself clear
Maybe I wrote in invisible ink
Oh I've tried to think
how I could've made it appear
But another illustration
is wasted cuz there ...
I feel like a ghost who's trying
to move your hands over some Ouija board
in the hopes I can spell out my name
But some take from magic at first glance
is just sleight of hand
depending how much you believe
Something gets lost when you translate
it's hard to keep straight
perspective is everything
And I know now which is which
and want angle I oughta look at it from
I suppose I should be happy to be this
... some of the other things I have become
But nobody wants to hear this tale
The plot is cliche - the jokes are stale
and maybe we've all heard it all before
oh I could guess this ...
nobody needs a ...
when details are ... I can't ... anymore
And a sight from the ...
chain of reaction baby is losing a link
Thought I'd hope you'd know that I tried
to tell you and I you don't I could
draw you a picture in invisible ink
But nobody wants to hear this tale
The plot is cliche the jokes are stale
and maybe we've all heard it all before
oh I could guess ...
nobody needs ...
when details are ... I can't ... anymore
(Oooh...)

.. pack your bags and run
Or stay until the job is done
Maybe you could sit at home
But ...
And sink like a stone
Or go it alone
isn't it enough for you
isn't it enough
isn't it enough for you
isn't it enough
So ... pack your bags and run
and send it to oblivion
but you don't look like you belong
that anyone would ...
And do what you do
To ...
isn't it enough for you
isn't it enough
isn't it enough for you
isn't it enough
isn't it enough ...
wondering aloud ... on the way
and baby ... to make or break with circumstance
isn't it enough to prove today's the day
isn't it enough to prove today's the day

The moth don't care when he sees the flame
he might get burned but he's in the game
and once he's in he can't go back, and
beat his wings 'til he burns them black
no the moth don't care when he sees the flame
no the moth don't care when he sees the flame
the moth don't care if the flame is real
cuz flame and moth got a sweetheart deal
and nothing fuels a good flirtation
like need and anger and desperation
no the moth don't care if the flame is real
no the moth don't care if the flame is real
So come on let's go ready or not
cuz there's a flame I know hotter than hot
and with a ...
away
the moth don't care if the flame burns low
cuz moth believes in an afterglow
and flames are never douzed completely
all you really need is a love of heat
no, the moth don't care if the flame burns low
no, the moth don't care if the flame burns low
So come on let's go ready or not
cuz there's a flame I know hotter than hot
and with a ...
away

I keep going round and round on the same old circuit
a wire travels underground to a vacant lot
... something I can't see interrupts the current
and shrinks the picture down to a tiny dot
and from behind the screen it can look so perfect
but it's not
so here I'm sitting in my car at the same old stop light
I keep waiting for a change but I don't know what
so red turns into green turning into yellow
but I'm just frozen here in the same old spot
and all I have to do is to press the pedal
but I'm not
People are tricky you can't afford to show
anything risky anything they don't know
the moment you try - ... kiss it goodbye
so baby kiss me like a drug, like a respirator
and let me fall into the dream of the astronaut
for I'll get lost in space that goes on forever
and you ... just an afterthought
and I'll believe it's you could make it better
though it's not
no it's not
no it's not...
