Альбом The Butchies

I'm looking out there at a world
standing while it's asleep
it'll make you wish you hadn't tried
to be “so fucking great”
now you're the one
it wants to think I trusted you
things will never be the same
what's the R-E-V without someone who knows
what's the R-E-V if you don't already know
walk around downtown
it's gorgeous here like where I came from
I thought we had a moment
I thought we had something
but where are you now
what's the R-E-V without someone who knows
what it's like to cross over and go live
it's already started
to be broadcast
we've made the front page ladies
who's talking about us now
I heard the TIMES would like an interview
if you had to choose a leader who would it be
and what would they do
there are enough of us now
do you care about us at all
what's the R-E-V without conviction
did you think we needed your permission
what's the R-E-V stand for anyway
what's the R-E-V-O-L-U
to be live
it's 2/3rds over
catch the last fight
it just might be the best ten minutes of your life
come here it's not close to over
cuz it's gonna last forever

after I said that I thought it would be better
to just stop talking
it couldn't be over but it couldn't last
it's been several years since I've even been asked
it must have sent my head off the deep end
I know some things
but nothing has left me so urgently
hoping and now
it couldn't be over but it couldn't last and
it's been several years since I've even been asked
no one wants to think of electricity that way

some say she comes from under the ocean
I think she wasn't born at all
congratulations are in order
for those who've tamed her wildest heart
come down make sure everyone can see
does anybody want the same as me
I mean wanting me
it hurts
it's torture
just joking
I can't feel the girls are having fun tonight
exciting will you help me through this
I'll trade you boredom for your kiss
come down make sure everyone will know
does anybody look as good as you
I don't think so
I'm gonna miss you
I don't want to say it but I have to

what I meant to say is
I'd go anywhere in the middle of my sleep
trade my confusion for your voyage
how much would you bet
that soon she's gonna find a girlfriend on the moon
I didn't cry at the saddest part
and I didn't cry when I watched you in your scene
it was just one line but it meant so much to me

did you know it's coming you can tell by the weather
you can tell by the way we walk
things are gonna get better
sure wish you would have gone here
wish just the same you'd stay next year
who are you anyway
and how did you get inside
I heard you're from galaxy
and now you've got to hide
sure wish you would have gone here
wish just the same you'd stay next year
this is not what you wanted to happen to us
Unbroken
it's you
it's you
unbroken
nothing new

a sound approach to massive hands down
nothing more than change your name
cuz you don't know a thing
you're fighting a river 10 times the size
assume I'm gay like Ellen
do you want to swim let's jump in
come on come on it's not like you enjoy it
don't wait for somebody
to tell you that you don't know a thing about my life
you don't know a fucking thing
around the same time as Mozart
who were those women they don't talk about
who were those we dream about
could privacy be a matter of just enough time
to write about you as me
in bed lights off clothes on
it's time to go do you wanna go
come on come on can't get away from liking it
a move and a sign of the times
you know me
you know that I remember it like yesterday

take a look around
I bet you don't know who you are
surrounded in closed in spaces while you wait
it's the kind of thing
when you think that you've already made it
it's a set up a kind of unsettled feeling
you wanna let it get to you
well I think that I believe it
I don't know if I'd deceive it
baby I would go anywhere
I can't fake it I won't make it
if you tell me take me with you
baby I would go anywhere with you
when you go out late walking everywhere
you've never before felt the strength of a
hundred thousand million people
it's the kind of thing
when you need just to have someone tell you
you're worth it all
girl you've got a lot of style
just one just close the door tonight
it sounds like if the time was right
we could stay here all our lives
just close the door tonight
it's the kind of thing
when you think it could be really nice
and you realize things have changed

no you don't even know
seriously though
treat me like I'm 7 stststs
no you don't even know
you've gotta mist the bromeliads
treat me like I'm 7 stststs aaaauuuugggghhhh
don't give me any more cigarettes
call me little butt
you're turning into a crusty punk
where's little yellow?

I'm sorry for my mistakes
I never knew I could act so strange
I always wanted to make sense
but I never intended to hurt you
with the things I never said
bending forwards and back
losing myself when I needed me most
I've learned that I have a lot to learn
this indecisiveness I get lost
this isn't the last time I will fall from grace
I need to be small before I can be strong
I tried the best I could to be kind
I'd like your respect but I'd rather keep mine
it's too late and I don't know why
I can't take you I can't take you to heart
it's too long and it's too wide
I can't cross and

words/music: Cris Williamson

thunder is shaking the roof of my car
I would go through a desert for you
my thoughts are flying to where you are
I would go through a desert for you
right on the edge of a storm
tonight I'll be with you and warm
to lie in the circle of your arms
I would go through a desert for you and for me
I would go through a desert for you
the sky had been falling
when I heard your name calling me by name
calling me by my name
out of the corner of my eye
I saw you blazin' brightly by
you're such a shooting star
that's what you are
you're just a shooting star
mountains are moving in the desert sun
I am crossing this desert for you
it is a lesson and it must be done

don't I look like I just woke up an hour ago
I keep thinking I see somebody when there's no one around
if I could ask you for a minute of your time
I'd tell you that I've been awake for days
that's not really true I've been walking around asleep
thinking about you
could have seen it coming but we were too far apart
I am remembering why today is so hard
I'd like to take you with me
it's not too far from here
can someone tell me where was I yesterday
and what was I doing
there's absolutely no way I can tell you what you mean to me
I wish that I could transfer my thoughts
into what your brain is thinking
there's no one who can comfort me when I get this way

It's you
It's you
Unbroken
Nothing new
