So many times you ran yourself over
Talking back on a cold-crying shoulder Get in a car with the taxi driver Sympathy of strangers, hoping to find her Oh oh oh oh-oh-oh Collisions came as consequence Watching the scene after the accident Mixed-up words, find out what she meant Witness the scene after the accident Passersby, nothing to see here at all Fast-forward talking yourself into the wall You never asked for an audience So why'd you care 'bout the reviews you're gonna get? Mixed-up words, find out what she meant Witness the scene after the accident Collisions came as consequence Watching the scene after the accident Oh oh oh oh-oh-oh Mixed-up words, find out what she meant Witness the scene after the accident Oh oh oh oh-oh-oh Collisions came as consequence Watching the scene after the accident Oh oh oh oh-oh-oh Mixed-up words, find out what she meant Watching the scene after the accident |

Everything that happened here
Cannot happen when you're dead She safely said Worry when you wake tonight Is it all in your head? So you want to run, deny No time to sit and rest Or re-address All that comes to you When you're picturing the nest And he never understands That the photo in the drawer Is all you're looking for Blue to grey, then back again Watch the fading paper wall Scratching at the window glass Trees along the ledge Are they in your head? Creepers beat-beat-beat tonight Picturing the nest The sight at sixteen Of the son she never had Once she had a dream Of the ones she'll never have Your ending Your ending Your ending Your ending You're only half a person now So fold over what is left To be addressed What you want when you wake tonight Is it all in your head? So you turn over, lie Cradling this perfect mess This home-made dress You've seen what comes to those Who put a picture in the nest The sight at sixteen Of the one she'll never have Once she had a dream Of the son she'll never have Your ending Your ending Your ending Your ending The sight at sixteen Of the ones she'll never have Once she had a dream Of the son she'll never have Your ending Your ending Your ending Your ending Whoa-oh-oh Ahh... |

I can hear her late at night
Rattling along the corridor Wearing my name around my neck I'd long forgotten who I was I rebel with the ghost Try to fight But my hands and feet are fading Used to fall for it all Now my weak insides Are backed by gutless conversation A spectre of your former self No reflection in the mirror When you least expect Wearing my name around my neck Apparently just self-possessed... I rebel with the ghost Try to fight But my hands and feet are fading Holding on to the wall But my weak insides Are backed by gutless conversation |

Whoa-oh-oh...
Saw him standing there and I know What it takes to make a show 'Cause who wants to be ignored? Who wants to be alone? I'll give you one two three four You're out on the streets, knock-knocking every door Six seven eight nine Nobody home, ran out of time Never beat me Please believe me There's a river running through me I don't need no reason Or a changing season Out of the rain And the chain-chain-chains Drag myself up to bring you down And you said Too much tragedy in this woman Cannot help but be impressed By your logic and your state of interest I'll give you one two three four five If you know what's good you'd better look alive Six seven eight nine Nowhere to run so hide-hide-hide! Never beat me Please believe me There's a river running through me I don't need no reason Or a changing season Out of the rain And the chain-chain-chains Gotta laugh on back at love Gotta laugh on back at love A river's too much to love Jump out before it floods Never beat me Please leave me There's a river running through me I don't need no reason Or a changing season Out of the rain And the chain-chain-chains Never beat me Please believe me There's a river running through me I don't need no reason Or a changing season Out of the rain And the chain-chain-chains Whoa-oh-oh... |

Don't know the meaning of devotional
Pictured me hanging Thread bare on the blacked out wall Purposeful, Your weekly disguise Surrendering to arms Fixing up those seeded eyes Dress it up Down the alcohol Feeling so much better Cross me, collecting This scene is all wrong Curtailing ourselves Nothing lasts so very long A carbon copy that typed out wrong Ghost in a black coat sliding slowly along Dressed up Down the alcohol Makes you feel better This gift Open wide, crawling walls He's got this gift, ten stories tall This gift, This Kiss Open wide, crawling walls He's got this gift, ten stories tall Don't know the meaning of devotional Pictured her there thread bare On the bathroom floor Purposeful, your secret disguise Surrender to his arms Fixing up those seeded eyes So you sing "Happy Birthday to death" A hater's wealth And a lover's rest |

Gonna find it hard to sleep through it all,
This rain veils gonna fall Walk behind him, sweet duress Try to conduct yourself Behind royal walls, blacked out eyes A solitary bird, high tension line Dreaming of a pure white sky, Did somebody stop time? (Twisting in) Twisting in, twisting out the knife (Paying for) Paying for your past crime (She'll make) She'll make a darling bride Reached in, pulled out your life Is this what you get in amoral times? Used to burn, now no fire of life Settle for the riches to be fed, Deliver to the valley of the bed (Twisting in) Twisting in, twisting out the knife (Paying for) Paying for your past crime (She'll make) She'll make a darling bride Reached in, pulled out your life Living's so dangerous, Try to conduct yourself Remember what your mother said, Try and use your heart not head (Twisting in) Twisting in, twisting out the knife (Paying for) Paying for your past crime (She'll make) She'll make a darling bride Reached in, pulled out your life (Twisting in) Twisting in, twisting out the knife (Paying for) Paying for your past crime (She'll make) She'll make a darling bride Reached in, pulled out your life |

I know
You are Another planet miles apart Is it a question of things You really should have cared about? You took a drive, Countries called More than your friends did, they watched you fall And now you've pulled the wires right from the wall Flags Don't ask me how he's doing He's doing fine Set it straight So there is no road left, only water Spent your time hopelessly alone It's no real price to pay anyway Your first letter came,Stressing lines Against the whitening page Trauma type, Saturation stains Flags He went from riches To rags Oh where are my friends? I'm a burden to their hallowed sense When I felt my head came to an end I made promises, promises never kept Your head at night So many thoughts fought for the finish line When there's no beginning Before you're running out of time So hard, to ignore. on my mind from beach to trestle door I'm thinking of you, flat out cold beneath the starboard floor |

We swing together like the bell
With a similar story to tell Both holding on until the end At least we're not alone Swinging together like the bell Together we fell Holding over water and the well Again again again Hang on You've got to hang on to yourself Hang on You've got to hang on to yourself Swinging forever like the bell With a similar story to tell Both holding on until the end At least we're not alone We swing forever like the bell Together we fell Holding over water and the well |

Sometimes the conversation
Is a road to the south Beyond the leaking roof To the dry mouth Sometimes intrepidation Is the roadkill in me Oh walk on in and solve the mystery Single configuration I'm out on bended knee Oh call for help I'm separating free House in my head has left me for dead House in my head, and I'm going home Sometimes the conversation Leads roads out to the south Past leaking roofs And dry, dry mouths So this isolation A hole too hard on me It was somebody I knew They threw away the key Sometimes conversation Is a road to the south Beyond the leaking roof Of a drying mouth Footsteps inside this nation Follow tracks, comparted train When I felt this funeral march along my brain Take me out of the street lights Out of the safe light Oh oh oh oh... |

Said you were leaving on the goodbye service
You'd take me with you I think we earned it (Too late) No stop signs (Too late) No red lights You left me stationed on the chair by the phone No ticket out or a thread of hope (Too late) At the traffic lights (Too late) For this trust of mine There's no sadder sight to see Trains in the distance as you leave There's no sadder sight to see Say goodbye to 5.14 Said that you'd call Scream when you're leaving At least I'm hurting so you sparked some feeling (Too late) At the traffic lights (Too late) Should have seen the signs Sometimes I see you By your bedroom window Hallucination A single shadow (Too late) No stop signs (Too late!) For a heart like mine |
