LANDSLIDE

We're caught in a landslide
Noone else is there
I try to be true
but I don't have the strength
Listening all alone in your room was your finest hour
Being overlooked by those who can only follow little men
We're caught in a landslide
we're caught in a net
and I'm caught in the middle
Leaving you miles ahead.
How can you come this far
and never wish them dead
I try to be true
but I don't have the strength
We're caught in a landslide
we're caught in a net
and I'm caught in the middle
Leaving you miles ahead.
Listening all alone in your room was your darkest hour
Being clothed and fed by the ones who can only follow little men.
Caught in a landslide
Caught in a net
Caught in a landslide
Caught in a net
Caught in a landslide
Caught in a net
I must try harder

A NAME

Bite the bullet maybe you can tolerate the pain
History will praise you when you're lying in your grave
But maybe you deserve to have a name
Sometimes I wonder what would Jesus have done?
Made another stand and then been crushed like a bug
I feel the need, I feel the need to blame
Bite the bullet a little trick that foils a firing squad
Is there another that could turn back the tide?
Find the ones, find the ones to blame
Find the ones, find the ones to blame
I have to know, we have to know a name.

DISARM

Was it more than you could take to be home for a while?
Were you forgetting how to think?
Looking for a holy shiver
you couldn't find it here with me
you don't begin to understand
You knew that I'd let you go
But you knew that I'd try
To bestow some grace on you
Disarming you and bringing you back you
Disarming you and bringing you back home
When you swim too far out
and the tide begins to turn
it's up to me to rescue you
I don't need you to thank me
but I deserve more than resentment
you're such a little child.
You knew that I'd let you go
But you knew that I'd try
to restore some faith in you
Disarming you and bringing you back home
Disarming you and bringing you back home
Disarming you and bringing you back home.
Are you forgetting how to think?

PEDESTRIAN

Separate the pedestrians from those who are upwardly mobile
The carnivores from those who are herded together
The Ubermensch looks better when he's spayed like a tomcat
Put behind bars and left there 'till he questions his motives
What if the ends justify the means
And it was as simple as it seems?
Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the Earth
Even if it means they get their hands dirty
Never look at things in black and white
If I lose my patience I just might

HOME AGAIN

Daylight filters through and I am restless again
My mind is on fast forward through a hundred different plans
but I lie still
remembering I'm
Home again
I told myself that it was over, never again
Motion is seductive and how can I resist?
Feeling reborn
when I return
Home again
I'm out of synch
and at these times I feel most alive
But in the end
we're reabsorbed
Home again
(I'm never going out again
all I have is here)

DAYLIGHT

Tomorrow I'll cover page one
first the ruins then the museums
nothing life-changing's happened
But I'm hoping tomorrow it will.
This won't help me
This won't help me
The sunshine is angry as hell
So I don't like venturing out
My window looks onto a store
Selling tickets to get out of here
This won't help me
Fly me back now
This won't help me
I think I've messed up
I think I've messed up
This won''t help me
The strange thing about this store
is the locals are queuing for flights
I think I'll go down there aswell
since I came here to see how they live
This won't help me
Fly me back now
This won't help me
Fly me back now
This won't help me
Fly me back now
I think I've messed up
I think I've messed up...
Fly me back now

SHED YOUR SKIN

Tomorrow you could be reborn
in an explosion of sensation
is that what you want
sight and taste and sound
Burning up your new-born-baby self?
Shed your skin
maybe it'll do you a service
But underneath
you know that it'd mean nothing to me.
Tomorrow you could be reborn
seize the opportunity
maybe useless flesh
always dragged you down
Mirrors always breaking your resolve
Shed your skin
Maybe it'll do you a service
But underneath
you know that it'd mean nothing to me.
Nothing masks or needs to be hidden
No-one crowds you out
Shed your skin
maybe it'll do you service
But underneath
you know it'd mean nothing to me
Nothing beats the one you were given
No-one crowds you out

ADVICE TO A LOVER

Advice to a lover
you don't have to suffer
Relax into your new life
Instinct is the enemy
of all you have been taught
But now it's your only guide
and always remember
to be fully in control
let go for a moment
and the turbulence takes hold
But yes it's worth it
I think
Really it's worth it
I don't know
Sometimes the feeling
of utter contentment
gets too much
but to worry about it
is the ultimate luxury
and always remember
that it pays to lose control
Relax for a moment
let the turbulence take hold
So yes it's worth it
I think
But then what do I know?
not much
Just a little as anyone
Probably than you.

AGONY

Could I break through, the walls you put me in
Can I be sure you even keep me here
Blood on my fingers
seems to testify
to my imprisonment
but I have my doubts
My faith is on the wane
I will choose silence
Do I resist when you bring me bread
Am I still tempted when you promise more
Silence, I like the sound of it
if I keep up then will you let me go
Blood on my fingers
Jesus was that really me
sorrythankyousorrythankyousorrythankyou
thank you let me go
Keep me here
Keep me here
Am I tempted when you promise the world
Blood on my fingers
Jesus was that really me
sorrythankyousorrythankyousorrythankyousorrythankyou

COVERS

I've been kicking back
Somehow I've been finding distractions everywhere
In the end there's so much
so much else I feel that I must devour
I wrote a song, a melody
Don't pull the covers over me
Maybe I wake up and feel off-kilter
On the wrong path to some dead end
but that isn't all
I protest my right to make my own mistakes
I wrote a song a melody
Don't pull the covers over me
I wrote a song, a melody
Don't pull the covers over me
I wrote a song
to take or leave
what more do you want from me?
it even fed a need in me
Don't pull the covers over me.

HYPNOTIST

Did I call too late
To foil that hypnotist
Did I call too late
To foil that hypnotist

I talked you down
I brought you home
I cleaned you up
But you keep tugging
When I leave I have to lock you in
But I don't like to
You know that it's only for the best

And I don't relish it at all
I don't relish it at all

Well, maybe I want to join you
In a state of pure united bliss
Who would be the guardian angel then?
Who would there be left to kick against?
I touch you
And you don't notice it at all
You don't notice it at all
You don't notice it at all
You don't notice it at all

I CAN'T WAIT

Berenice
Those insect-eggs
are hatching out
and I think I'm going deaf.
in one ear and my balance is shot
so you can guess
my dreams are filled
with brain-eating worms
but it's only when I wake
I really feel
the horror
and I can't wait
to have you near again
And talk about
the things that
we both went through
I admit
to fantasies
of wrist-slashing
But it doesn't make me proud
Glamorous
or any such thing
(...I can't wait.....)
Sometimes I think I want to go
Back again
to the place where we were left
Coz ever since
Nothing can come close
And I can't wait
to have you near again
and relive the things that
we both went through.

LET IT FLOW

Give it time
it takes time,
it'll all come together
Let it flow through you
Let it flow
You know you can't force it.
Nobody's counting the days
Nobody's lying in wait
You're so lucky, man,
I hope you know
There's a light a light shining on you
Give 'em gold and it
turns to stone
and you don't want to listen
The chains turn the wheel my friend
the idiots make the deals
the days are slipping by my friend
You may as well let it flow
Give it time
maybe given time
There'll be good things to look back on
when nostalgia strikes
you'll be surprised
that a part of you enjoyed it
The chains were always turning the wheels
The monsters were part of the deal
The days are slipping by my friend
So let it flow
the chains turn the wheel my friend
the idiots make the deals
the days are slipping by my friend
time is running out
the monkeys type
the days are slipping by my friend
you may as well let it flow.
