You

You are the sun and moon and stars are you
And I could never run away from you

You try at working out chaotic things
And why should I believe myself not you?

You say the world is going to end so soon
And why should I believe myself?

You, me and everything caught in the fire
I can see me drowning
Caught in the fire
You, me and everything caught in the fire
I can see me drowning
Caught in the fire


Creep

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fucking special
But I 'm a creep
I 'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

She's running out again
She's running out
She run, run, run run
Run

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here


How Do You

He's bitter and twisted
He knows what he wants
He wants to be loved and he wants to belong
He wants us to listen
He wants us to weep
He was a stupid baby who turned into a powerful freak

But how do you?
How do you?
How do you?

He lives with his mother
But we show him respect
He's a dangerous bigot
But we always forget
And he's just like his daddy
'Cause he cheats on his friends
And he steals and he bullies
Anyway that he can

But how do you?
How do you?
How do you?


Stop Whispering

And the wise man say I don't wanna hear your voice
And the thin man say I don't wanna hear your voice
And they're cursing me
And they won't let me be
And there's nothing to say
And there's nothing to do

Stop whispering
Start shouting
Stop whispering
Start shouting

And my mother say we spit on you son some more
And the buildings say we spit on your face some more
And the feeling is that there's something wrong
Cause I can't find the words and I can't find the songs

Stop whispering
Start shouting
Stop whispering
Start shouting

Dear Sir, I have a complaint
Dear Sir, I have a complaint
Can't remember what it is
Doesen't matter anyway
Doesen't matter anyway

Stop whispering
Stop whispering
Stop whispering
Stop whispering
Start shoooooooooouuuuuuu


Thinking About You

Been thinking about you
Your eyes are on my wall
Your teeth are over there
But I'm still no one
And you're now a star
What do you care?

Been thinking about you
And there's no rest
Should I still love you?
Still see you in bed
But I'm playing with myself
And what do you care when the other men are far, far better
All the things you got
All the things you need
Who bought you cigarettes?
Who bribed the company to come and see you, honey?

I been thinking about you
So how can you sleep?
These people aren't your friends
They're paid to kiss your feet
They don't know what I know
And why should you care when I'm not there?

Been thinking about you
Should I still love you?
Still see you in bed
But I'm playing with myself
And what do you care when I'm not there?
All the things you got
She'll never need
All the things you got
I'm played out and bleed to please you

I been thinking about you


Anyone Can Play Guitar

Destiny
Destiny protect me from the world
Destiny
Hold my hand protect me from the world
Here we are with our running and confusion,
And I don't see no confusion anywhere

And if the worm does turn
And if London burns
I'll be standing on a beach with my guitar
I wanna be in a band when I get to heaven
Anyone can play guitar
And they won't be a nothing anymore

Grow my hair
Grow my hair I am Jim Morrison
Grow my hair
I wanna be wanna be wanna be Jim Morrison
Here we are with our running and confusion
And I don't see no confusion anywhere

And if the worm does turn
And if London burns
I'll be standing on a beach with my guitar
I wanna be in a band when I get to heaven
Anyone can play guitar
And they won't be a nothing anymore

Ripcord

Soul destroyed with clever toys for little boys
It's inevitable, inevitable
It's a soul destroyed
You're free until you drop
You're free till you've had enough
And you don't understand
No ripcord
No ripcord
No ripcord
No ripcord

Aeroplane do I mean what I mean?
It's inevitable, inevitable
Oh aeroplane
A thousand miles an hour
On politics and power that you don't understand
No ripcord
No ripcord
No ripcord
No ripcord

The answer to your prayers
We'll drop you anywhere
With no ripcord No ripcord
No ripcord
N-n-no ripcord
Yeah

Vegetable

I never wanted anything but this
I worked hard, tried hard
I ran around in domestic bliss
I fought hard, died hard
Every time you're running out of here
Every time you're running get the fear

I never wanted any broken bones
Scarred face, no home
You words surround me and I asphyxiate
And I burn all hate
Every time you're running out on me
Every time you're running I can see

I'm not a vegetable
I will not control myself
I spit on the hand that feeds me
I will not control myself

The waters break
The waters run all over me
The waters break
The waters run
And this time you're gonna pay

I'm not a vegetable
I will not control myself
I spit on the hand that feeds me
I will not control myself

Proove Yourself

I can't afford to breathe in this town
Nowhere to sit without a gun in my hand
Hooked back up to my cathode ray
I'm better off dead
I'm better off dead
I'm better off
Proove Yourself
Proove Yourself
Proove Yourself

I wanna breathe, I wanna grow
I'd say I want it but I don't know how
I work, I bleed, I beg, I pray
But I'm better off dead
I'm better off dead
I'm better off
Proove Yourself
Proove Yourself
Proove Yourself
I'm better off dead
I'm better off dead
I'm better off
Proove yourself
Proove yourself
Proove yourself
Proove yourself
(Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?)
Proove yourself
Proove yourself
Proove yourself


I Can't

Please forget the words that I just blurted out
It wasn't me it was my strange and creeping doubt
It keeps rattling my cage
And there's nothing in this world
Will keep it down
Even though I might
Even thought I try
I can't
Even though I might
Even thought I try
I can't

So many things that keep
That keep me underground
So many words that I
That I can never find
If you give up on me now
I'll be gutted like I've never been before
Even though I might
Even thought I try
I can't
Even though I might
Even thought I try
I can't

If you give up on me now I'll be gutted like I've never been before.
Even though I might
Even thought I try
I can't
Even though I might
Even thought I try
I can't
Even though I might
Even thought I try
I can't
Even though I might
Even thought I try
I can't


Lurgee

I feel better
I feel better now you've gone
I got better
I got better
I got strong
I feel better
I feel better now there's nothing wrong
I got better
I got better
I got strong

Tell me something
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me one thing
Tell me one thing
Let it go
I got something
I got something heaven knows
I got something
I got something I don't know


Blow Out

In my mind
And nailed into my heels
All the time
Killing what I feel
And everything I touch
(All wrapped up in crinoline, all wrapped up in sugar-coated)
Turns to stone
Everything I touch
(All wrapped up in crinoline, all wrapped up in sugar-coated)
Turns to stone

I am fused 
Just in case I blow out
I am glued
Just in case I crack out
Everything I touch
Turns to stone
Everything I touch
(All wrapped up in crinoline, all wrapped up in sugar-coated)
Turns to stone
