Zero
my reflection, dirty mirror there's no connection to myself i'm your lover, i'm your zero i'm the face in your dreams of glass so save your prayers for when we're really gonna need 'em throw out your cares and fly wanna go for a ride? she's the one for me she's all i really need cause she's the one for me emptiness is loneliness, and loneliness is cleanliness and cleanliness is godliness, and god is empty just like me intoxicated with the madness, i'm in love with my sadness bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms the fashion victims chew their charcoal teeth i never let on, that i was on a sinking ship i never let on that i was down you blame yourself, for what you can't ignore you blame yourself for wanting more she's the one for me she's all i really need she's the one for me she's my one and only
Bullet With Butterfly Wings
The world is a vampire, sent to drain secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames and what do i get, for my pain betrayed desires, and a piece of the game even though i know-i suppose i'll show all my cool and cold-like old job despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage then someone will say what is lost can never be saved despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage now i'm naked, nothing but an animal but can you fake it, for just one more show and what do you want, i want to change and what have you got when you feel the same even though i know-i suppose i'll show all my cool and cold-like old job despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage then someone will say what is lost can never be saved despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage tell me i'm the only one tell me there's no other one jesus was an only son tell me i'm the chosen one jesus was an only son for you despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage and i still believe that i cannot be saved
1979
shakedown 1979, cool kids never have the time on a live wire right up off the street you and i should meet junebug skipping like a stone with the headlights pointed at the dawn we were sure we'd never see an end to it all and i don't even care to shake these zipper blues and we don't know just where our bones will rest to dust i guess forgotten and absorbed into the earth below double cross the vacant and the bored they're not sure just what we have in the store morphine city slippin' dues down to see that we don't even care as restless as we are we feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts and poured cement, lamented and assured to the lights and towns below faster than the speed of sound faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope justine never knew the rules, hung down with the freaks and the ghouls no apologies ever need be made, i know you better than you fake it to see that we don't care to shake these zipper blues and we don't know just where our bones will rest to dust i guess forgotten and absorbed into the earth below the street heats the urgency of now [written: sound] as you can see there's no one around
