Fidelity I never loved nobody fully Always one foot on the ground And by protecting my heart truly I got lost in the sounds I hear in my mind All these voices I hear in my mind All these words I hear in my mind All this music And it breaks my heart Suppose I never ever met you Suppose we never fell in love Suppose I never ever let you Kiss me so sweet and so soft Suppose I never ever saw you Suppose you never ever called Suppose I kept on singing love songs Just to break my own fall Just to break my fall All my friends say That of course it’s Gonna get better...

Better If I kiss you where it’s sore If I kiss you where it’s sore Will you feel better, better, better Will you feel anything at all Will you feel better, better, better Will you feel anything at all Born like sisters to this world In a town where blood ties are only blood If you never say your name out loud to anyone They can never ever call you by it If I kiss you where it’s sore If I kiss you where it’s sore Will you feel better, better, better Will you feel anything at all Will you feel better, better, better Will you feel anything at all You’re getting sad, you’re getting sad You’re getting sad, you’re getting sadder And I don’t understand and I don’t understand But if I kiss you where it’s sore If I kiss you where it’s sore Will you feel better, better, better Will you feel anything at all Will you feel better, better, better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samson You are my sweetest downfall I loved you first, I loved you first beneath The sheets of paper lies my truth I have to go, I have to go Your hair was long when we first met Samson went back to bed Not much hair left on his head Ate a slice of Wonder bread and Went right back to bed And the history books forgot about us And the Bible didn’t mention us Not even once You are my sweetest downfall I loved you first, I loved you first beneath The stars came falling on our hats But they’re just old light, they’re just old light Your hair was long when we first met Samson came to my bed Told me that my hair was red Told me I was beautiful and Came into my bed Oh I cut his hair myself one night A pair of dull scissors in the yellow light And he told me that I’d done alright And kissed me till the morning light, the morning light And he kissed me till the morning light Samson went back to bed Not much hair left on his head Ate a slice of Wonder bread and Went right back to bed Oh we couldn’t bring the columns down Yeah we couldn’t destroy a single one And the history books forgot about us And the Bible didn’t mention us Not even once You are my sweetest downfall I loved you first Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On The Radio This is how it works It feels a little worse Than when we drove our hearse Right through that screaming crowd While laughing up a storm Until we were just bone Until it got so warm That none of us could sleep Then all the styrofoam Began to melt away We tried to find some worms To aid in the decay But none of them were home Inside their catacomb A million ancient bees Began to sting our knees While we were on our knees Praying that disease Would leave the ones we love And never come again And on the radio We heard November Rain The solo’s real long But it’s a pretty song We listened to it twice ’Cause the DJ was asleep This is how it works You’re young until you’re not You love until you don’t You try until you can’t You laugh until you cry You cry until you laugh And everyone must breathe Until their dying breath No, this is how it works You peer inside yourself You take the things you like Then try to love the things you took And then you take that love you made And stick it into some - Someone else’s heart Pumping someone else’s blood And walking arm in arm You hope it don’t get harmed But even if it does You’ll just do it all again And on the radio You’ll hear November Rain That solo’s awful long But it’s a good refrain You’ll listen to it twice ’Cause the DJ is asleep On the radio uh-oh On the radio uh-oh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Field Below I wish I’d see a field below I wish I’d hear a rooster crow But there are none that live downtown And so the day starts out so slow Again the sun was never called And darkness spreads over the snow Like ancient bruises I am awake and feel the ache But I wish I’d see a field below, I wish I’d see a field below I wish I’d see your face below I wish I’d hear you whisperin’ low But you don’t live downtown no more And everything must come and go Again the sun was never called And darkness spreads over the snow Like ancient bruises I am awake and feel the ache I am awake and feel the ache I wish I’d see a field below I wish I’d see a field below I am awake and feel the ache But I wish I’d see a field below Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That Time Hey remember that time when I found a human tooth down on Delancey Hey remember that time when we decided to kiss anywhere except the mouth Hey remember that time when my favorite colors was pink and green Hey remember that month when I only ate boxes of tangerines So cheap and juicy! Hey remember that time when I would only read Shakespeare Hey remember that other time when I would only read the backs of cereal boxes Hey remember that time I tried to save a pigeon with a broken wing A street cat got him by morning and I had to bury pieces of his body in our building’s playground I thought I was gonna be sick Hey remember that time when I would only smoke Parliaments Hey remember that time when I would only smoke Marlboros Hey remember that time when I would only smoke Camels Hey remember that time when I was broke I didn’t care I'd just bum from my friends Bum ba bum ba bum bum... Hey remember that time when you OD’ed Hey remember that other time when you OD’ed for the second time Well in the waiting room while waiting for news of you I hallucinated I could read your mind And I was on a lot of shit too but what I saw, man I tell you it was freaky Freaky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
