There upon the darkest night
I float in constellations made of
blinking LED lights.
This is all I have become,
The one who pays the bills
The one who keeps the blessed power
on.
Every monument decays,
One drop of rain
even the hardest stone gets washed
away.
And when the final door has slammed
The meals on wheels will find me with
the remote control in my hand.
Enter now and you might win the
chance to be someone.
This is your last chance to spin the
wheel before it’s gone.
Youth is just a falling star,
Everything you own fits in the
backseat of your car.
Gifts are laid down at your feet,
Laurel wreaths are heaped
All just because you are who you are.
Enter now and you might win the
chance to be someone.
This is your last chance to spin the
wheel before it’s gone.

Whatever I’ve done my darling one, you
know that I am all for you.
Whenever I start to drag you down, I
know that you won’t cut me loose.
It don’t make no sense, that hearts
should have to break like this.
Is it a tune that we forget, a shadow
underneath the moon?
Do you feel a vague regret, on summer
mornings bright and new?
It should be obvious, love shouldn’t end
in bitterness.
How long have we been waiting, for
things to become clear.
Are we simply waiting out the losing
that we fear
When we should just be breathing,
The in and out of living,
And endlessly forgiving.
Into the blue my darling one, you know
the future is untold.
Why do we always have to fight,
knowing life will end too soon?
It makes no sense to me, that love
requires therapy.
Why do we always have to give each
other storms and rainy days,
When we could spend our time in
summer breezes, lying in the shade?
It don’t make no sense, that hearts
should have to break like this.
How long have we been waiting, for
things to become clear?
Are we simply waiting out the losing
that we fear?
When we should just be breathing,
the in and out of living,
And endlessly forgiving.

Sometimes I think of a place
That don’t exist anymore,
Where they will save
Only the pure,
And let the rest of them burn.
We will fall into the sun.
We will fall into the sun.
Give me the keys
To the garage,
I’m building a weapon in there.
When they break in
All the will find
Is my skin and my hair.
We will fall into the sun.
We will fall into the sun.
In the evening when your work is done,
You can rest your weary head upon
your pillow,
And dream of fields all violet green
and yellow.
Great black smoke stacks
Hold up the sky -
It is the will of the wise.
No better time
To invest
In the ultimate crime.
We will fall into the sun.
We will fall into the sun.
In the evening when your work is done,
You can rest your weary head upon
your pillow,
And dream of fields all violet green
and yellow.

Leaves

There was a time,
A time before the fall,
When love was something real -
And it did fall
Like gentle rain on dappled fields,
I had faith,
Faith in the whole deal,
The world did turn in vast magnetic
fields
And we believed it all was ours.
When did we wander off through the
leaves and the shadows?
Will my heart be there where I left it
so long ago?
Is it right
That love should have to heal
The wounds we made with no apparent
need?
Should we not pay for all our deeds?
Is it fair
That we should have to stay?
The world might turn and then just
roll away.
Do we need someone to blame
When we just wandered off through
the leaves and the shadows?
Will my heart be there where I left it
so long ago?

When the end came
I was sleeping.
I didn’t notice
That the world had moved on.
When I woke up
It was broken -
So I found out
Everything I knew was gone.
The sun was setting
Over the freeway.
I was alone.
I was lost could not get home
So I wandered,
Without direction,
Into the unknown.
They built a statue
For the fallen
In the city
To remind us what they gave.
I fought my battles
In the arcade
By the counter
For cologne and aftershave.
The sun was setting
Over the freeway.
I was alone.
I was lost could not get home
So I wandered,
Without direction,
Into the unknown.
You know I can’t complain -
They work you hard but treat you well.
You know I can’t complain
About the darkness in my soul.
When excavators dig my bones
Will we connect across time zones?
When all that’s left is teeth and mud
Will there be remnants of love?
If you find me
Will you know me?
Will you kiss me?
Will you remember who I am?
If there’s somewhere
To return from
Will you love me?
Will you tell me who I am?
The sun was setting etc. …

When you hate me,
I know you only hate me because you
really love me.
When you push me away,
I know you’re only pushing
Because you’re wanting me to stay.
They’re only feelings,
But sometimes we get swept away.
Those feelings.
We will not laugh we will not play.
We will sit in our room and sulk all day.
When you hate me,
I know you only hate me because you
really love me.
When you push me away,
I know you’re only pushing
Because you’re wanting me to stay.
I know you love me,
Love me in a hundred ways.
You love me.
Just how it goes you cannot say.
We will sit in our room and cry all day.
We will sit in our room.
We will sit in our room and cry all day.
You’re stronger than you know
You can make the sun shine and the
wind blow
You’re bigger than the sky
You can make the grass grow and the
birds fly
You won’t do what your told
You can make the storm clouds and the
thunder roll
Stronger than any man
A teenage girl can crush you with just
one stare
(Repeat to fade out).

Matt – Don’t tell me, I do not need
reminding,
I do not need reminding of those times.
When we fucked up, we fucked up
everything we touched.
We couldn’t have made it more fucked up
If we fucking tried.
Mary – When we tried, we seemed to
get it right.
We seemed to get it right, some of
the time.
But you never, never paid attention,
Never really noticed,
How hard I tried.
Matt – There was something,
something between us,
Transferable to no one else. I don’t
know why you tried.
When you hurt me, you didn’t’ seem
to notice.
Didn’t even see me, like you were blind.
Mary – I hurt you, because I could not
get to you.
You didn’t even see, all the times I cried.
You were blind to everything I needed.
Could only live in your world, but you
couldn’t live in mine.
Matt – Don’t tell me, I do not need
reminding.
I’ve been running from those times.
When we fucked up, we fucked up
everything we touched.
We couldn’t have made it more
fucked up
If we fucking tried.
Mary – I’ll remind you, every time I
see you,
Every time I see you, of those times.
We brought light, Light to everything
we touched.
Enough to light the airwaves up,
Though we were blind.

Signs
04:01

There are signs written in the
firmament.
There are signs put there by the
government.
There are lines visible from outer space,
That guide the gods to the landing place.
There are signs, signs that are
everywhere.
There are signs so you won’t be scared.
There are signs that designate your
safety zone.
There are signs so you’ll never be alone.
There are signs looking like they’ve
always been there.
There are signs projecting light into
the atmosphere.
There are signs, signs written in the
palm of your hand.
There are signs saying beware beware.
There are signs telling what the future
will bring.
Without signs we might do
impossible things.

Your quiet breath -
The world can take a rest.
In my arms -
The world can do no harm.
I’ll keep you safe,
Whenever you may sleep,
And I’ll make promises
That I’ll never keep.
My perfect child -
The gift of all tomorrows.
I’d spare you all the darkest days
And hide you from all sorrows.
Your quiet breath -
I’ll always do my best for you.
And I’ll forget
All the rest I’ll lose for you.
My perfect child -
The gift of all tomorrows.
I’d spare you all the darkest days
And hide you from all sorrows.

Light

Light travels in a straight line
from the night light in the hall to the
end of time.
Going past so fast, dazzled by the light.
Flying past the exit in the dead of night.
When I cross over the bridge the moon
still follows me.
The lights in the park still follow me.
The breathing in the dark still
follows me.
In all the broken pieces that I left
behind
There’s something everlasting that is
ill-defined.
There’s sadness in the touch of your
skin on mine.
I still feel the loss of things I could
not find.
When I cross over the bridge the moon
still follows me.
The lights in the park still follow me.
The breathing in the dark still
follows me.
