ADOREDLouisiana, in the Bucket of Blood

That's where they met, his eyes were like mudCause his whole life he had nothing to seeBut he held on to her and he found peace

He'd take her walking down by North ShoreAnd he always told her

we're meant for much moreWe outta go off somewhere so pretty

And then a storm came and fucked up theCrescent City

And then they were left with nothingShe said nothing's not so bad

It could be the best time that we ever hadEvery single day

I can feel them chip, chip chipping awayIf only we could run, run from these swine

Oh baby we are wasted in this timeSomeday if we try

I know we could fly, fly, fly, fly, flyWe shine like gold

Oh baby we were born to be adoredAnd I can feel them staring in my face

Like they're dig, dig, digging me, digging a grave

It's like these people are dead they're so weakAnd someone dug them up and gave them

words for their lips to beatAnd then they were left with nothing

She said nothing is not so badIt could be the best time we ever had.

SONG FOR JACOBI saw Jacob, he lay in the streetHe said the air out here is like amphetamineAnd I never ever wanna sleep againI wanna live till I dieThey took all his money and all that he hadBut he smiled with his eyes and his face was bright redAnd spit would run from his mouth when he saidI wanna live till I die'Cause I am alive and there's blood in my armsThis is a day that is brighter than bombsThis is a day that is brighter than bombsI will live till I dieTill I dieThere's more inside of me than skin and bonesI am born again today and all my sins are washed awayThere's more inside of me than skin and bonesJacob sat on the roof and he saidSome day the earth will cast out its deadIf you dwell in the dust then wake up and singI will live till I dieJacob smiled when he said to meI am not waiting on the Red SeaTo open up and rain pearls on meI will live till I dieTill I dieThere's more inside of me than skin and bonesI am born again today and all my sins are washed awayThere's more inside of me than skin and bonesAs long as I live and there's blood in my armsThis is a day that is brighter than bombsThis is a day that is brighter than bombsThis is a day that is brighter than bombs.

SLOW POISONBurn, burn house on fire

I'm so sick and tiredI can still remember your sound

It is cut, cut cutting me downI'm locked and loaded

You're so milk and rosesAnd I am just a lapdog, I'm your hound

It is cut, cut cutting me downLike slow poison

Sing me one more hymnalI have found my angel

Oh, oh, oh, she walks upon the groundIt is cut, cut, cutting me down

I'm an empty canI'm a stranger in a strange, strange land

Gone, gone, just gone without a soundIt is cut, cut, cutting me down

Like slow poisonAnd all my dreams are only dreams

And all my schemes are only schemesAnd if this is my punishment

Then I want my crime to fitBurn, burn house on fire

I'm so sick and tiredI can still remember your sound

It is cut, cut, cutting me downLike slow poison.

HATEF--KIf I put my hands around your wrists would you fight them?If I put my fingers in your mouth would you bite them?There's so many things that I would doIf I had my way with youI can keep secrets and I know how you want meYou can tear your nails into my skin, you won't stop meYou can twist and scream into the airBut no one can hear you hereAnd there will be no tenderness, no tendernessThere will be no tenderness, no tendernessI will show no mercy for youYou have no mercy for meThe only thing that I askLove me mercilesslyAnd all your shining friendsthat despise you to your faceWhat would they say now if they saw you in this place?Naked and breathless, could you live with this disgrace?Could you live, could you live, could you live with this?And there will be no tenderness, no tendernessThere will be no tenderness, no tendernessI will show no mercy for youYou have no mercy for meThe only thing that I askLove me mercilessly.

I AM YOUR SKINAnd you know me now

like a mother knows a childAnd you know me now

like I came from your own bodyI can feel your pulse like a moth inside a jar

And even this is still too farEven this is still too farI wanna be your skin

I wanna feel everything you feelI wanna be your covering

So let them come like an army against usI know you won't be afraid

Because I am the armor upon you nowAnd we are never betrayed

There is no ending between you and meI wanna be your skin

I wanna feel everything you feelI wanna be your covering

And I will hide you inside of meWith every breath in harmony

I wanna be your skinI wanna be your covering.

SHE'S SO BENDABLEAin't a soul who's seen

A loser like meIt was she, it was she

She put the devil in meWasn't me, wasn't me

I don't have it in me(That remains to be seen)

Girls like youDon't need a thing

Cause girls like youHate everything

You're gonna kill meWhen you hear this song

Does she still love meOr was I wrong(I'm losin' track, please take me back)She's so bendableShe's so bendableShe's so bendableShe's so bendable.

THE SPECTATORThe birds are up when he collapses through her doorSpilling out in constellations on her floorSoaked in liquor he is soft as breadAnd everything that's left in him to beg her to his bedHe is a nocturnal always aloneThey all speak in secret codes that he has never knownIn this world but not of it so he watches from above itA visitor here, this is not homeI am the spectatorI can see the world passing by from hereAnd I am just a child to a man back to the dust where I beganI was never even here at allI am the spectatorI am the spectatorHis eyes like two cats scratching in his headBegging him for sleep starving for a bedBut sleep it never comes so he ticks the time awayHour after hour hear them playThe bells goChime, chime, chimeTicking, ticking timeChime, chime, chimeTicking, ticking time.

I HAVE SEEN THE FUTUREWe are faster, faster than pain

We are a nerve ending without a brainWe have evolved, we have no feeling at all

It is a brave new worldRaise a glass in salutation

We drink to our annihilationWas and will just make me ill

It is a brave new worldAnd we are faster than pain

We are dogs without a nameWe are marching soldiers off to claim

The brave, brave, brave new worldI wanna dream it all awayAnd take a soma holiday

I take a gram and I only amIt is a brave new world

Raise a glass in salutationWe drink to our annihilation

Was and will just make me illIt is a brave new world

And we are faster than painWe are numbers in a chain

We are marching soldiers off to claimThe brave, brave, brave new world.

RED HANDS AND WHITE KNUCKLES

She could be found out dancingAt Ludlow Street and Stanton

Oh, you should have seen herShake it up like Orangina

And even though she's a liarWe got on just like a house on fire

And even though she's my friendWe never knew when to say when

Every little move she madeWas ticker tape paradeAnd every little thing she'd sayWas a national holidayAnd even though she's a liarNo one ever got me higherAnd even though she's my friendWe never knew when to say whenWith red hands and white knucklesI tried to hold on, I tried to hold onShe was in Thompkins SquareStaring at the grassTrying to make her eyes turn greenBut it never lastAnd even though she's a liarNo one ever got me higherCause we never knew when to say whenEven though she was my friendWith red hands and white knucklesI tried to hold on, I tried to hold onOver on 5th and CShe got her beers for freeAnd every time I came in thereShe always laughed at meShe said, who let this child in here?You look like you teach mathYour appled eyes betrayYou've never known lonelinessWith red hands and white knucklesI tried to hold on, I tried to hold on.

JACK-O'-LANTERN MANOh jack-o'-lantern man

We will see who's laughing thenSomeday when push comes to shove

We will see who's laughing thenOh jack-o'-lantern man

If you could see the rage inside of meI could cut my veins and drown you in the flames

And I'd know, I'd knowI would know ecstasy

And I was only seventeenStir the blood spill the seed

Psilocybin all the timeDirty water spill the wine

The birds outside, they never stopShut the window call the cops

Oh jack-o'-lantern manI wanna see that smile turn cold surprise

We will see who's laughing thenWhen I piss in your hollow eyes

I wanna drown you like a kitten in the sinkI wanna see you bleed amethyst

Oh jack-o'-lantern manWe will see who's laughing then

with a skull full of pissAnd I was only seventeen

Stir the blood spill the seedPsilocybin all the time

Dirty water spill the wineKenneth Anger colored dreams

Underwater hide the screamsThe birds outside, they never stop

Shut the window call the cops.

SUGAR PILLCome, come like sugar my loveUntil the bitter taste is goneThese images then burn my eyesLike the thumbprints of the sunCome, come everything to please meCandy canes on paradeLay me in the sun till every trace is goneI am bleached away, bleached awayOh sugar pill I believe youOh sugar pill I wanna eat you up up up upNow I am blissed outI have kaleidoscope eyesI'm light as cottonI am wide as the skyThis is where my thoughts come to dieAnd I am happyOh sugar pill I believe youOh sugar pill I wanna eat you up up up up.
