Tell All

You feel like I have left you
But you haven't followed me
You've given up on your last chance
This is goodbye in theory
I don't think I will come back
I don't forgive easily
I'll be thinking about fences
And how you put one up on me
And it's the first
The first time that you ever felt you did wrong
Life's just a curse
Feeling lonely, loving to be alone
What do I do now
that I've set myself free?
Do I live with conviction
Do I walk without needs?
I choose to sleep in the back side
of my own misery
I'll never give another chance to you so...
This is goodbye in theory

As If

What should I wear today?
A long sleeve shirt should be okay
These looks will never fade
I want to please in every way, all day
Life is good to me
Because I believe in me
All i want to say
Is that everything will be okay, okay?
I'm real famous
but you don't know me
I don't know just what what to do
to be famous
so you will know me
I don't know just what to do
I look in the mirror
My sadness disappears
Approached affectionately
I'm infected with this true beauty, okay? yea? yea?
believe in looks, believe in fate
I've made the choice
believe in love, believe in fate
I'll be with you in every way

Prom

|

I feel so miserable
tactile tissues on the floor
I used to feel so wonderful
eating freely like an animal
Orange thoughts on purple ground
with blonde pieces that I've found
My face is not an open door
Please help me I'm feeling so miserable
Please, take a picture
As I walk away my heart nearly skips a beat
The person of my dreams doesn't take me seriously
Please, take a picture with me
As a child I would sit around
and throw all my toys
Now that I have grown alone I have one choice...

Elephant Swing
02:06
|
|||
|
There's a place that they both like to go
Legs held high feeling pleasurable
Would you meet my by the elephant swing?
Voices scream as they fall down
Kicking catching lollidrops
No frowns to be found
Won't you meet me at the elephant swing?
Silky licked pieces exploring kinds
Climbing catching crowded skin the rest of the night

Locked Out
02:33
|
|||
|
my arms drag across the floor
I walk to the telephone
hello (from another pulse rate)
the other voice begins to breathe
And I begin to sigh
and fill the void again
It's starting again...
My lungs fill with charm
my words begin to whimper
I ask, "Can you help me out?
I'm stuck at the mercy of glands!"
Can you get me out?

The Critical Kiss
03:45
|
|||
|
Sister Annabell picks up the phone
Talks shortly and slams it down
Walks to the buttons and lays her head
Has short dreams then she crawls to bed
Wakes in the morning to the same machine
Skips to the bathroom to make herself clean
Looks in the mirror to address the day
The makeup she wears makes her look so strange
All she wants is a critical kiss
Will she find what she wants to find?
Demands division but never leaves the house
Wants more friends but can’t get out
She wants to be happy, wants to be the same
Wants to get married to hyphenate her name

Love Surgery
03:13
|
|||
|
For the longest time I felt unhealthy
Prodded every poke and had my share of emergencies
I know how Im feeling better
I found a girl who can perform love surgery
She shaped my heart to make it identical
Massaged my brain to remove all the pain from those other girls
People ask, "what made you feel better?"
I tell them I found a girl who can perform love surgery
A knife to the bone never felt so good!

Push 2 Hush
02:58
|
|||
|
It was only a special day where I wanted my way
It was only a minor strain of disrespectful decay
All I want is to be loved
All I want is to be strong
I want a special day when I get my way
You know I love you
I still love you
But girl it's a push to hush
There’s a time and a place for change but not today
There’s a time and place for change and change is coming my way
All I want is to be fair
Any other day I’ll be there
I want a special day when I get my way

Boy Lonely
03:49
|
|||
|
Sitting inside while the snow decays
Feels like you’re wasting away
Let me take care of your insides, please
I will never let your body decay
Seeing you lifeless on immobile chairs
Gave us all quite a scare
I would wait on you for a lifetime, honey
I don’t want you hanging out in the air
Please, don’t, ever get sick
It’s a problem that’s exclusive to me
Please, don’t, ever leave
I don’t want to be boy lonely
Waiting for numbers on the telephone
Lasting longer than I want it to be
Wondering if I should call that number
That will tell me how it’s going to be
Dust collects as I wipe them away
It helps keep my mind busy
Let me take care of your insides, honey
I don’t want to be boy lonely
I don’t want to be boy lonely
I don’t want to be boy lonely
As I lay next to her I think, 'If it doesn’t happen now...it still could.'

Pieces
03:29
|

|
She says,
"We must go together."
He says,
"You are my forever."
She says,
"This is what I wanted."
He says,
"You are all I wanted."
Then the end
"We must now be separate."
It begins
Searching for love instead of
Pieces
we grow to expect
Pieces
It's all we ever wanted
She says,
"It is better that we
are just friends."
He is feeling like it's
Pieces
Living alone collecting
Pieces
Living alone and thinking
'Is this it?
I am supposed to accept
Loneliness
as part of my existence?
In the end
she will come back to me'
She will say,
"You're all I ever wanted."
Come back to me

Let Love Go
02:59
|
|||
|
There she goes
I’m sitting her all alone
Why doesn’t she just telephone?
Let love go
I’m so sad
I go between angry and mad
I’m sure I’ll do it all again
Letting love go
It was in my hand
How was I to understand?
That love is temporary
and sadness makes you feel ordinary
That’s why I’m letting love go
I go to bed
My daily accomplishment
Will I feel well again?
Maybe when I let love go
The world seems fine
Am I the only one that feels like dying?
I hope soon I feel like trying
To let love go
