The world's light up in your head
You've been pouring in a concrete bed
Your habits ossify
You don't realise you're frail
So frail

To find someone you love, you gotta be someone you love (x2)

The reason's somewhere in the agenda
It takes years to let things in
You used up the easy streets
And you lost your taste for treats
You're so frail

To find someone you love, you gotta be someone you love (x2)
For someone to be enough, you gotta call your own bluff
To find someone you love, you gotta be someone you love (x3)


. . .



Well I'd snap to attention if I thought that you knew the way
I'd open my mouth if I had something smart to say
I bought a stack of books, I didn't read a thing
It's like I'm sitting here waiting for birds to sing

Let's do it again
Come on, let's do it again
Please, let's do it again
Come on, let's do it again

The hum of the clock is a far away place
The azalea air holding your face
You're lying down and the moon is sideways ( *** cold that never gets old)
It's like I'm sitting here waiting for birds to sing

I spend all my energy staying upright
And I like the masked noise quiet of your breathing nearby

Let's do it again
Come on, let's do it again
Please, let's do it again
LyricsCome on, let's do it again

I want your lazy science, I want some peace
Are you the future? Show me the keys

I spend all my energy walking upright
I like the masked noise quiet of your breathing nearby
When I accelerate I remember why it's good to be alive
Like a 25-cent game

Maybe this weight was a gift
Like I had to see what I could lift
I spend all my energy walking upright


. . .



To make a mountain of
Your life is just a choice
But I never learned enough
To listen to the voice that told me

Always love
Hate will get you everytime
Always love
Don't wait 'til the finish line

Slow demands come round
Squeeze the hair and and keep the rest up
It helps to write it down
Even if you then cross it out

Always love
Hate will get you everytime
Always love
Even when you want to fight

Self-directed lives
LyricsI want to know what it'd be like to
Aim so high above
Any card that you gained, didn't you?

Always love
Hate will get you everytime
Always love
Hate will get you

I've been held back by something
Yeah
You said to me quietly on the stairs
I've been held back by something
Yeah
You said to me quietly on the stairs
You said
Hey you could once
Hey you could once

To make a mountain of
Your life is just a choice
But I never learned enough
To listen to the voice that told me

Always love
Hate will get you everytime
Always love
Hate will get you

I've been held back by something
Yeah
You said to me quietly on the stairs
I've been held back by something
Yeah
You said to me quietly on the stairs
You said
Hey you could once
Hey you could once
Hey you could once


. . .



So we sat and talked
And then we walked and talked
But said it was the truth
What is your secret?

Dragged it on and on
Even favorite songs
But your division's wrong
What is your secret?

I don't care about you anymore
The people got tired
Our movies don't play much anymore
The actress was fired

You said you were yourself
Not being someone else
That this was new for you
What is your secret?

You said just what i said
LyricsLike it came from your head
so what's the needle pet?
What is your secret?

I don't care about you anymore
People got tired of
Our movies don't play much anymore
The actress was fired

I don't think about you
I try not to think about you

You want to control
You want to be controlled
You're like a little switch
And then you take your time

you lived a reckless twist
i wasn't made for this
think i've been locked for long
the city's so big


. . .



If you were here, baby we'd increase the dose.
There was no fear in my room when we got close.
Call me anytime you've got a ghost.
You're the only person in the world I feel that way about.
And if you move off to the side, I'll get swept back out

Where it's cold but not that deep, cause your legs grow.
Cold but not that deep, cause your legs grow.

And there's a light that rises up from the bottom of the lake.
And its beam has hit me hard
Now I'm wide awake
Where it's cold but not that deep, cause your legs grow
Cold but not that deep, cause your legs grow
Cold but not that deep, cause your legs grow
Cold but not that deep, cause your legs grow.

If you were here, baby we'd increase the dose.
There was no fear in my room when we got close.
Call me anytime you've got a ghost


. . .



Do you wake up and lie there
and think it through?
is the weight of your own life
too much for you?

it all is a game
you forgot to play
you did

woke up an hour after the clock
remembered the details
and wanted to stop
the stakes in my life
are going so far up
that my fingers are like
haven't you had enough

but first i gotta find money
i gotta get lunch
tell me something funny
coz i'm cracking up
Lyricsand later when i see stars
i'll know i'm alright
i go scary far
from the dark to the light

the stove is open coz it's cold
got a stack of possessions to be sold
there's a hallway to a doorway
to a room that you're in
and in there all day
the wall are you say
the sky's whatever you say


. . .



Ah, the hell with it...
I'm gonna have a party [x2]

I had the blankest year
I saw life turn into a T.V. show
It was totally weird
The person I knew I didn't really know

Time don't remove
We're the only ones who do
Bendin' reason
'Cause its all we hold on to

I had the blankest year
I saw life turn into a T.V. show
It was totally weird
The person I knew I didn't really know

And I was lonely
They got the best and went
But you're only
I'd like to return this spell
'Cause it's not my size
And your lies are so much bigger than my lies
And your ties are made of things that shouldn't be ties

Ah, fuck it (fuck it)
I'm gonna have a party [x3]




. . .



I look in the mirror
to see what my hair is doing
is it kind of skywalker
or is it kind of stupid?
but that's not the real reason i'm looking
i need a reminder of what i'm doing
i need a reminder that i'm human

in my dreams i love you like
a snowstorm in the night
the windows open wide
here comes reflected light
we can keep the covers up
it's like we never stop

but do dreams ever do damage to life?
when you need so much
you can't get it right

who else is here today?
i'm alone but can't obey
swim on my back at night
near my clothes and a flashlight

i look in the mirror
why am i complicated?
i'm trying to see clearer
the sun has faded


. . .



I was about to change
But you stay the same
I was about to change
But you stay the same
I was about to change
But you stay the same
I was about to change

Make ???? somebody else
????
Can't foresee it ends ???

Armies Walk, listen to me
Armies Walk, listen to me

I was about to change
But you stay the same
I was about to change
But you stay the same
I was about to change
Woohoo
But you stay the same

I dreamt that we woke up
You've gotta miss ???
???
???

Armies Walk, listen to me
Armies Walk, listen to me


. . .



Hey, calling all imaginary friends!
Today, don't want no one to tell me how it ends
Took breathing for granted
and now i don't know how to breathe
something that you planted
just won't get up and leave

Hey, i'm bewildered and writing myself notes
Say if you fake happiness then no one knows
Convince yourself
and then you've got it made
There'll be no black of night,
just the turned out lights

You only get to play one time
Lenny Bruce 's bug eyes stare from a LP
Asking me just what kind
of fight i got in me
I harbored some ambition
to turn it up like that
I already had robot soul
LyricsWhy'd you have to cheat?

It's a long story I'll tell you later
And now the sky looks like Turner
From specifics to the dawn
i've got so many backburners
that keep on.

You laughed out loud about someone who
couldn't get their shit together
I laughed along, ha-ha
I almost wish you knew me better

Hey, calling all imaginary friends!
