Moist

You came to rape me of my intellect
I give you pieces off my pride
Lay down naked and play with you
Posing quietly looks a lot like me

Your fucking pistols not so dangerous
Rip me open cause you're dead inside
Stick it any place you please
And you believe
What you thought you'd it looks a lot like me

That I'll believe in
But it was lost on me
All she said one little trick she said
Machine punch through
But it was lost on me
All she said one little word she said
Machine punch through
Punch through
Another schoolboy goes to hell for it

Sell my soul out one nickel at a time
Believing everything he reads
Turn the last page down I'm not far behind

Your cigarettes become a torch for me
Watch the welts rise come blistering through
Burning deep into arm
What you thought you'd see it looks a lot like you
And you believe

But it was lost on me
That I'll believe in
All she said one little trick she said
Machine punch through
All she said one little word she said
But it was lost on me
Machine punch through

Punch through
Desperate to whine
I'm bent out of shape
Strung out on speed
Screamin so loud that I don't make a sound
Maxed out on lies
I know you're to blame but I can't see why
You believe that I'll believe in you
And its not so hard
And you believe that I'll believe in you
And its not so hard
And you believe
That I'll believe in
All she said one little trick she said
But it was lost on me
But it was lost on me
All she said one little word she said
Machine punch through
Machine punch through
Punch through

I came screaming down the highway
Looking for a place to fly
Its only in the blood
Stopped outside the window

Into the kitchen
Found you lying on the floor
I can't feel you anymore
There I tied you up with wire

I offered you to god
You gave yourself to me
Wrapped the curtains round your body
Its only in the blood
This shrieking love

This shrieking love

Comes crashing down
Oh its only in the blood
A body breath away
Is not the one you thought you'd found
Its a deadly clear addiction
Its only in the blood
A long hot bath in acid fast

On down the highway
Looking for a place to fly
Outside the window
Its only in the blood

Comes crashing down
This shrieking love
This shrieking love
Is not the one you thought you'd found
Oh its only in the blood
Nauselbaum

Who better than me
Draw fire and then
Fall into be seen
Pray quiet

I'm too low
Stay down stay down
Cold earth to the ground
Too late to be
So real but

Too low now
I'm too low now
And if I ever wanted you back to me
Too low low
And if I ever wanted you back to me
Spread gently for me
Too hard to be heard

With better words I'm better than

Too low low
Stay on stay on
With better words I'm better than
Too late to be gone

Too low low
Too low now
And if I ever wanted you back to me
And if I ever wanted you back to me
Too low low

She breathes through the book
Measures a picture there
Cuts it to wallet size
Picks up the knife

Now she has lived
Now she has breathed
Now she's tasted heaven but the trip doesn't sting
And all she wanted was a photograph

Rain on my tongue
Feels like I'm tasting god
Drinking the riches up
Silver and gold
Back to the night

And if I died
And all she wanted was a photograph

I'm going to ask my questions on the other side
Mask of the city hangs in mock deliberation
I step outside the wire while the sun strips off my cocaine
Bent like a banshee while my cup is overflowing

And she breathes through the book
Another brutal ending I know I'm an animal story telling
Said that she never knew
But answer is hard to take
Question is easy

The binding cracks
The words will fade
And all she wanted was a photographBut she keeps the picture in the frame that she made

I promised you delight
And heaven opens
Come wage my holy war
Where every thought is sin
I've been meaning to remove
My baby skin tattoo
And I meant to be more kind
And maybe next time

If you come my way
If you come my way
If you come my way
We might feel the same
Consequence is rage
If you come my way

I caught you on your knees
The words aren't wasted
You'd love to be released
Without tasting it
And it's only if you've bought
What I have sold you
And if everything is fine
Well maybe next time

If you come my way
If you come my way
If you come my way
We might feel the same
Consequence is rage
If you come my way

Changed my face again
So you'll forget me
Purified the skin
It's just a covering
I've been meaning to remove
My baby skin tattoo
And I meant to be more kind
And maybe next time I'll be a friend
And next time they'll be the enemy
And you might find
What you might find
And maybe this time

If you come my way
If you come my way
If you come my way
We might feel the same
Consequence is rage
If you come my way

Hate
Crowded by the empty room
Bitterness will run you through
If you're in the way
Love
Broken by the dragon's wings
Prayed for one bright thing
Guess I'll have to wait

Dragged me out
Frightened by my nakedness
Frightened by my own sweet smell
I know, I know, I know
Hate

Words
Spit into a porous wind
Violence blows you in
If you're in the way
Mine
A victim of the cold parade
Silenced, some might say
Guess it came too late

Dragged me out
Frightened by my nakedness
Frightened by my own sweet smell
I know, I know, I know
Hate

Places fought for, came away
Sleep must save me
Numbing, numbing
Dragged me out
My nakedness
My own sweet smell
I know, I know, I know

Ours is the legacy of waste
Waste all the things we turned to dust
Simple if we would like to find
Punished by words I'm takin'
Finally pressed you'd like to know
Known for the trip unfolding
Pleasantries building as we go
Timid the way I'll take it

Now memory is over, memory's over
Are you still remembering
Never meant to go there, meant to go there
Are you still remembered

All through the dress I lie awake
Tearful as I've been binding
Only in your mind to make
Helpful or not, I'm takin'

Now memory is over, memory's over
Are you still remembering
Never meant to go there, meant to go there
Are you still remembered, remembered

Now memory is over, memory's over
Are you still remembering
Never meant to go there, meant to go there
Do you still remain
I'm comin' on, I'm comin' on, I'm comin' on
No way to get over
Comin' on, I'm comin' on, I'm comin' on
No way to get over, get over, get over, get over
Get over, get over, get over

I've been drowned out by the rain
Still I'm wishing I could stay
But I'm sorry, my old friend
I've got to leave you once again
And despite what I might say
Measure pleasure by the pain
Measure pleasure by the twisting
Of the metal in the vein
And it might be very hard
Can't be more than what we are
Can't be more till it's over

Here comes the resurrection
Everybody's got to die from something
Nothing ever left to leave you when you go
I saw you strip my babies
Animal, the way you cut them might be
Animal, the way I cut you from below

So you goad me into spite
It's the cruelty that you like
It's the waiting for the one thing
That you never could define
Fill the longing just because
Emasculates the ones you love
Have to wait till it's over

We are the less than mighty
Never was a way I thought it could be
Never quite enough to leave you when you go
I saw you strip my babies
Animal, the way you cut them might be
Animal, the way I cut you from below

I've been drowned out by the rain
Still I'm wishing I could stay
But I'm sorry, my old friend
I've got to leave you once again
And despite what I might say
Measure pleasure by the pain
Measure pleasure by the twisting
Of the metal in the vein
And it might be very hard
Can't be more than what we are
Can't be more till it's over

Here comes the resurrection
Everybody's got to die from something
Nothing ever left to leave you when you go
I saw you strip my babies
Animal, the way you cut them might be
Animal, the way I cut you from below

And if anger is the ending
Of the things that we've become
For the mother and the father
And the sister and the son
Through the shallow without wanting
Realisation to mistake
In the ugliness, the open
All the things we can't replace
I will control
I will control
I will control
I will control
I will control
I will control
I will control
I will control

I'd walk the water to get back to you
And where I was complete
We found you scattered by the highway side
Too soon to be released
Gathered the pieces up and clean the places
Where you were undone
And washed the wreckage out
Unfinished all the thoughts that we'd begun
The beauty that it sows
I came to burn the sky and tear away
Leave it alone again tonight
If I could rape the day
And find the things I thought I'd always known

Unmade the most of it then left the rest

The parts unrecognized
I laid your arms out long untwisted there
My reconstruction was the only way
And shaped what I could find
For one last look at you
I lost the sense of it
The absolution that we never knew

Leave it alone again tonight
And it takes me back from this place here
I came to burn the sky and tear away

It takes me back from this place here
If I could rape the day
The beauty that it sows
And find the things I thought I'd always known
Leave it alone again tonight


And it takes me back from this place here
Might be lost in this place here
From this place here it takes me over

From this place here it takes me on
Tonight leave it alone

High-heeled and overzealous
Come to beat my puppy love with all your sins
I'll come again
Bound to me, suck my sickness
Like your lover sucks my weakness down like rain
We'll never change

Hooray for you, boy
Just enough to make it easier
I was the one to never change
And I come, and I come like rain

Pumped thumping, ripped it open
My disease is buried deep in all sweet things
We'll never change
Spoiled rotten by your secret
Still I like to hold your creature close to me
It drove me insane

So here's to you, girl
Opened up to make me easier
I was the one to never change
And I come, and I come like rain
Lovely here and again like rain

Don't be unsightly, washed so cleanly
Never invited, might not mean a thing
Don't be invited, I'm so manly
Don't be so dirty, washed so cleanly
Never unsightly, might not mean a thing
Don't be invited, not so manly
And I come, and I come like rain
Lovely here and again like rain
And I come, and I come like rain

Shotgun blast spreads like dawning
Rip me open, feel it coming
Bowing down to my addiction
Never meant to go so willing
Thought I found the something better
Terminally hope it's crashing
Laughing and crashing
It's laughing, I'm crashing

Sorry that I left your language
Found a place of my opinion
Galvanized the oversight
By pissing on your whole philosophy
Mine is just the easy target
Mine is just the carnal weakness
Wishing for something
And something been wishing

How long is this going to take us going on
Is this going to take us
How long is this going to take us on

You could be the innocent
And I will play the unwashed savior
Counting on cancer to teach us to live
Tired of all the vacillations
Halcyon come take me under
Laughing and crashing
And laughing, I'm crashing

How long is this going to take us going on
Is this going to take us
How long is this going to take us on

Shotgun blast spreads like dawning
Shotgun blast spreads like dawning
Shotgun blast spreads like
Dawning

How long is this going to take us going on
Is this going to take us
How long is this going to take us going on
Is this going to take us on
Is this going to take us on
Is this going to take us on
Is this going to take us on

And we'll turn away
Yes, it's hard in here
And we'll suffer the failures
Of my promise

You let me believe that it was over
I twisted the words to make it
So God-damn easy for you
Hard to escape what's hard
We the living

Worn clear through
From my disco days
Have I grown too familiar
To be honest

You let me believe that it was over
I twisted the words to make it
So God-damn easy for me
Pity we'll have to close our eyes
We the living

The flowers that I gave you
Dying slowly on the wall
The broken fragments of opinion
As the dirty start to fall
I'm not as fragile as I should have been
I might not disagree
But for the ignorance of everyone
Opinion's gone to waste

And have you been this far
And have you been this far
Tangerine, the bullet made you
Justifies the one who saves you
Laid him here, love to see him waste away
Tangerinin' like a rocket
Cracked the cock into the socket
Only if you'd love to see him waste away

The purposeful delusions
Of this weakness will dissolve
The broken promise, revidescent
As the anger start to crawl
I'm just as frightened as I've always been
I might not disagree
But for the ignorance of everyone
Opinion starts to fall apart

And have you been this far
And have you been this far
Tangerine, the bullet made you
Justifies the one who saves you
Laid him here, love to see him waste away
Tangerinin' like a rocket
Cracked the cock into the socket
Only if you'd love to see him waste away

Cause you're a child and that's alright
To let my deep blue sickness smother you with lies
And if I'm low, it gets me high
To have you shrivel up and waste away
Beneath the evening tide

Have you been this far
Tangerine, the bullet made you
Justifies the one who saves you
Laid him here, love to see him waste away
Tangerinin' like a rocket
Cracked the cock into the socket
Only if you love to see him waste away

Tingling, the bullet made you
Justifies the one who saves you
Laid him here, love to see him waste away
Tangerinin' like a rocket
Cracked the cock into the socket
Only if you love to see him waste away

I've sold out every memory
I have borrowed, I have bought from you
These pictures run like water
To dilute me, lay me over you

And I thought that this would be so right
And everyone, and everyone
Is better than you
And everyone, and everyone

I've felt each slow perversion
Fosters' dying killed the truth in me
Gone quietly, gone completely cold
Reminder what you tried to be

And I knew that this would be so right
And everyone, and everyone
Is better than you
And everyone, and everyone
And everyone, and everyone

And it's hard
And it's hated
And it's hard
And if so, and if so, and if so, and if so

And everyone, and everyone
Is better than you
And everyone, and everyone
And everyone, and everyone
Is better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
And if so
And if so
And if so
And if so

I'd walk the water to get back to you
And where I was complete
We found you scattered by the highway side
Too soon to be released
Gathered the pieces up and clean the places
Where you were undone
And washed the wreckage out
Unfinished all the thoughts that we'd begun
The beauty that it sows
I came to burn the sky and tear away
Leave it alone again tonight
If I could rape the day
And find the things I thought I'd always known

Unmade the most of it then left the rest

The parts unrecognized
I laid your arms out long untwisted there
My reconstruction was the only way
And shaped what I could find
For one last look at you
I lost the sense of it
The absolution that we never knew

Leave it alone again tonight
And it takes me back from this place here
I came to burn the sky and tear away

It takes me back from this place here
If I could rape the day
The beauty that it sows
And find the things I thought I'd always known
Leave it alone again tonight


And it takes me back from this place here
Might be lost in this place here
From this place here it takes me over

From this place here it takes me on
Tonight leave it alone

Morning came to pieces
Without offering, is it still real
Precious little pistol
Beaten senseless till she can't feel

Still the moments passing by
It's only the time that we could never stop
Early morning winter came
Been too close to be so close again
Never meant to be this cold
It's only the time that we could never stop
Still the moments passing by
I'm letting Ophelia die

Daisies dusted lightly
So politely till she can't see
Itchy little trigger
Will deliver what she won't be

Still the moments passing by
It's only the time that we could never stop
Early morning winter came
Been too close to be so close again
Never meant to be this cold
It's only the time that we could never stop
Still the moments passing by
I'm letting Ophelia die
I'm letting Ophelia die
I'm letting Ophelia

Still the moments passing by
It's only the time that we could never stop
Early morning winter came
Been too close to be so close again
Never meant to be this cold
It's only the time that we could never stop
Still the moments passing by
I'm letting Ophelia die
I'm letting Ophelia die
I'm letting Ophelia die
I'm letting Ophelia die

Tell me did I hurt you
All wash of water's broken
My fabulous machine to suck
So close your eyes, I'll cut you inside
Tell me did I hurt you, hurt you
Your machine will die
Tell me what I've wasted
Tell me

Gasoline is in my head
I'm turning on
Gasoline is in my head
Gasoline is in my head
I'm turning on
I'm turning home

Tell me if it kills you
Quietly the world is waiting
Bringing on its own arrival
Something tries to burn you inside
And tell me what I've taken, taken
Your machine will die
Nothing's ever wasted
Tell me

Gasoline is in my head
I'm turning on
Gasoline is in my head
Gasoline is in my head
I'm turning on
I'm turning home

These hands have broken
Hard-pressed on everyone
My words can't open
You alone, you alone

Gasoline is in my head
I'm turning on
Gasoline is in my head
Gasoline is in my head
I'm turning on
I'm turning home

Push
A little bit more than I ever wanted

A little bit more than you could ever say
Did you really think that I'd forgotten?
Kicked out the windshield, water coming in
Fade away, fade away
Is this what you want? What you need?

Push just a little too late
Is this what you wanted me to be?
Always loved me strapped to you
Lock it down and drive me through

Taking more than you could ever say
You knock me down I ripped the handle off again
I tried to give more than you thought I'd take now
Push come to shove you kicked me in the head
Fade away, fade away
Is this what you want? What you need?
I wanted more than this, wanted more than this

Push just a little too late
Is this what you wanted me to be?
Lock it down and drive me through
Always loved me strapped to you
Hands gripped to the wheel held too tight to feel

Face pressed to the glass, please don't ask
One more breath, one more, it's alright
I could never give enough, have enough, be enough
Only only only, fade away, fade away
You could never stand to stay there

Push just a little too late
Is this what you want? What you need?
Is this what you wanted me to be?
Lock it down and drive me through
Always loved me strapped to you
Push just a little too late
I expected more than thisI wanted more than this

Believe me touch by god touch by you
Believe in me it's all I can do
You know I never asked you
Things you never said

And wanting you to reach out from the dark
To wake up from the cold
And wanting you is all I can do
Thing you never said

Believe me
Did you ever try
Keep it all to yourself
Believe me
Believe me

I never wanted to die
I'll take the note the words that say I'm weak
That show I should have died crumpled in the fire
Thing you never said

I'll take the note its all I can do
Believe me
Believe me
I never wanted to die
Did you ever try
Keep it all to yourself
Believe me

So I'm burning up your pictures
For the promises I never made
Lay you in this shallow grave
So I'm washing clean your body
I'm burning up your pictures
Still my love remains the same
