Eye of the Needle

Take me down  I’m feeling now And if I move on I admit you're gone I ain't ready I’ll hold steady I’ll hold you in my arms You’re locked inside my heart Your melody’s an art I wont let the terror in, I’m stealing time  Through the eye of the needle Step and repeat Tears fall to the beat Smile through pain Feel the acid rain I ain't ready  I’ll hold steady I’ll hold you in my arms, in my arms, in my arms You’re locked inside my heart Your melody’s an art I wont let the terror in, I’m stealing time  Through the eye of the needle My bags heavy Been filled by me They weigh me down  Carry them round It’s all mine, all mine I am blinded by the eye of the needle

Forget Her

While this town is busy sleeping, All the noise has died away. I walk the streets to stop my weeping, 'Cause she'll never change her ways. Don't fool yourself, she was heartache from the moment that you met her. Ah, my heart feels so still as I try to find the will to forget her, somehow. Ooh, I think I've forgotten her now. Her love is a rose, pale and dying. Dropping her petals in land unknown. All full of wine, the world before her, was sober with no place to go. Don't fool yourself, she was heartache from the moment that you met her. My heart is frozen still as I try to find the will to forget her, somehow. She's somewhere out there now. Well, my tears falling down as I try to forget, Her love was a joke from the day that we met. All of the words, all of her men, All of my pain when I think back to when. Remember her hair as it shone in the sun, The smell of the bed when I knew what she'd done. Tell yourself over and over you won't ever need her again. But don't fool yourself, She was heartache from the moment that you met her. Oh, my heart is frozen still as I try to find the will to forget her, somehow. She's out there somewhere now. Oh, she was heartache from the day that I first met her. My heart is frozen still as I try to find the will to forget you, somehow. 'Cause I know you're somewhere out there right now

Gone

Selling out Is not my thing Walk away I won't be broken again I'm not I'm not what you think Dream away your life Someone else's dream Nothing equals nothing Letting go Is not my thing Walk away Won't let it happen again I'm not I'm not very smart Why should I feel sad For what I never had? Nothing equals nothing Turn to stone Lose my faith I'll be gone Before it happens Turn to stone Lose my faith I'll be gone Before it happens Selling out Is not my thing Walk away I won't be broken again I won't I won't fall apart Dream away your life Dream away your dream Nothing equals nothing Turn to stone Lose my faith I'll be gone Before it happens Turn to stone   Lose my faith I'll be gone

Mer Girl

I ran from my house that cannot contain me From the man that I cannot keep From my mother who haunts me, even though she's gone From my daughter that never sleeps I ran from the noise and the silence From the traffic on the streets I ran to the treetops, I ran to the sky Out to the lake, into the rain that matted my hair And soaked my shoes and skin Hid my tears, hid my fears I ran to the forest, I ran to the trees I ran and I ran, I was looking for me I ran past the churches and the crooked old mailbox Past the apple orchards and the lady that never talks Up into the hills, I ran to the cemetery And held my breath, and thought about your death I ran to the lake, up into the hills I ran and I ran, I'm looking there still And I saw the crumbling tombstones All forgotten names I tasted the rain, I tasted my tears I cursed the angels, I tasted my fears And the ground gave way beneath my feet And the earth took me in her arms Leaves covered my face Ants marched across my back Black sky opened up, blinding me I ran to the forest, I ran to the trees I ran and I ran, I was looking for me I ran to the lakes and up to the hill I ran and I ran, I'm looking there still And I smelled her burning flesh Her rotting bones Her decay I ran and I ran I'm still running away

I Want You

I want you the right way I want you, but I want you to want me too, Want you to want me, baby, Just like I want you I'll give you all the love I want in return But half a love is all I feel, sweet darling It's too bad, it's just too sad You don't want me no more But I'm gonna change your mind Some way, somehow I want you the right way I want you, but I want you to want me too, Want you to want me baby, Just like I want you One way love is just a fantasy To share is precious, pure and fair Don't play with something you should cherish for life Oh baby, don't you wanna care? Ain't it lonely out there? I want you the right way I want you, but I want you to want me too, Want you to want me, baby, Just like I want you I want you the right way I want you, but I want you to want me too, Want me, baby, just like I want you. I want you, the right way Want me, baby Don't play with something you should cherish for life

Has To Be

Breathe in, breathe out I say a little prayer How the gods above Could be so unfair I know there's someone out there Waiting for me There must be someone out there There just has to be Go on, go on Don't sit there like a fool You've graduated from A different kind of school I know there's someone out there Waiting for me There must be someone out there There just has to be I should be glad that I'm alive It could have been much worse I might have never loved at all And never known what I am worth How the gods above Could be so unfair

I know there's someone out there Waiting for me There must be someone out there There just has to be

Ghost of Corporate Future

A man walks out of his apartment, It is raining, he's got no umbrella. He starts running beneath the awnings Trying to save his suit, Trying to save his suit, Trying to dry, and to dry, and to dry, but no good.

When he gets to the crowded subway platform, He takes off both of his shoes. He steps right into somebody's fat loogie. And everyone who sees him says, "Ew." Everyone who sees him says, "Ew." But he doesn't care, 'Cause last night he got a visit from the Ghost of Corporate Future. The ghost said, "Take off both your shoes Whatever chances you get, Especially when they're wet." He also said, "Imagine you go away On a business trip one day. And when you come back home, Your children have grown, And you never made your wife moan, Your children have grown, And you never made your wife moan." "And people make you nervous You'd think the world is ending, And everybody's features have somehow started blending. And everything is plastic, And everyone's sarcastic, And all your food is frozen, It needs to be defrosted." "You'd think the world was ending, You'd think the world was ending, You'd think the world was ending right now. You'd think the world was ending, You'd think the world was ending, You'd think the world was ending right now." "Well, maybe you should just drink a lot less coffee, And never ever watch the ten o'clock news. Maybe you should kiss someone nice, Or lick a rock, Or both." "Maybe you should cut your own hair 'Cause that can be so funny. It doesn't cost any money, And it always grows back-- Hair grows even after you're dead" "And people are just people, They shouldn't make you nervous. The world is everlasting, It's coming and it's going. If you don't toss your plastic, The streets won't be so plastic. And if you kiss somebody, Then both of you'll get practice." "The world is everlasting Put dirtballs in your pocket, Put dirtballs in your pocket, And take off both your shoes. 'Cause people are just people, People are just people, People are just people like you. People are just people, People are just people, People are just people like you." The world is everlasting It's coming and it's going The world is everlasting It's coming and it's going It's coming and it's going

At My Most Beautiful

i've found a way to make you i've found a way, a way to make you smile i read bad poetry into your machine. i save your messages just to hear your voice. you always listen carefully to awkward rhymes. you always say your name, like I wouldn't know it's you, at your most beautiful i've found a way to make you i've found a way, a way to make you smile at my most beautiful, i count your eyelashes secretly, with every one, whisper I love you. i let you sleep. i know you're closed-eye watching me, listening. i thought I saw a smile i've found a way to make you i've found a way, a way to make you smile

We Might Be Dead By Tomorrow

give me all your love now 'cause for all we know we might be dead by tomorrow i can't go on wasting my time adding scars to my heart 'cause all i hear is  "i'm not ready now" and i can tell that you didn't have to face your mother losing her lover without saying goodbye 'cause she didn't have time

i don't want to judge what's in your heart but if you're not ready for love how can you be ready for life? so let's love free let's love loud  let's love now 'cause soon enough we'll die

Don't You Love Nobody True

I dot my t's and I cross my i's Shuttle burning 'cross the big blue sky A sports-star-and-a-police chase A cookie-cutter-and-a-cookbook court case Someone help me, I feel so sick You're not worth it Now you know, now you know Don't you love nobody true? A little hope and a little regret A little caffeine 'cause I'm not up yet A little life loss to pay the rent A little girl in a beauty pageant Someone help me, I'm covered in it Come, Custodiangel And wipe me up, wipe me up Don't you love nobody true?

Atlas

The soul of all things  Floating around  In echoes of darkness  Specters of sound  Cyphers of dreams  Flown from the deep  Floating around in his sleep  And from the East came the sun  And the morning light  All morning white  To cut a line in the corner of his eye  And Atlas awoke  Jonesin' to toke  To quiet the thoughts all rumbling down  Like a dam that done broke  You've lost your touch, he says  Maybe you've got too much, he says  Maybe you've got too much  For what it's worth  It was the sky on his shoulders  Not the earth  But Atlas just shrugged  He's going back on the drugs  Oh man, I'm back on the drugs  It's hard to get up  When you're stuck in a rut  When you're spinning around and around and around  'Til you don't know what's what  And I want to see every leaf  On every tree, Every leaf on every tree  As he walked through the whirlwind of his home  All the things in the whole world that he did own  Fell to his feat, calling for Change, Change, Change  O, Change! But Atlas just shrugged  He's going back on the drugs  Swallowed down that bitter slug  And in full seriousness, he turned to the sky  And he said, O!  Why, I want to see Every leaf on every tree  Who put all this burden on me?  Let the beauty of the world rise around him  Let the beauty of the world rise around him  Let the beauty

Milkman/Brother

My brother My only kin I'm lost in tears in the mirror again Lord knows I have no conscience But I'll delve into my mind Where your voice, it still remains Lord knows I still need you But you're far away Lost in some playground  In Disneyland Take me with you We'll play till the end And fall off The face of the earth My Brother My long-lost friend We cut our hands To have more skin All I found Once I left this land Is the desolation of humankind Follow me Will you wind this tape again? And I'll be looking for you Around the next bend

Villain

My sister, she used goat's blood To conceal her ravaged body But I was gifted With my uncle Freddy's baby For some time I could hide Bloated belly, babe inside What happened to my life? Oh this ain't right I should have taken it myself With Uncle Freddy's knife 'Cause the grave is better suited For a bloodless daughter bride

Give rise to the villain Give rise to the hidden Deprived of the protector Unshield from the weather
