Looking In
I had the same damn dream last night again
Where I'm looking outside at me looking in.
Shut up!
I had the same damn dream last night again
Where I'm looking outside at me looking in.
Looking at me in the mirror, Making silly grins.
Making faces at myself, I love to make pretend.
I had the same damn dream last night again
Where I'm looking outside at me looking in.

50's Death Song
Bridge
Oh
Wah oo wah oo
Oh
Wah oo wah oo
(Verse 1)
I woke up this morning, walked outside
I had to see the moon was red.
Then I tried to go inside, Only to find
That I was actually dead.
Then right away I felt a pain, That I could not explain.
A sudden ringing in my head.
Then the Pain came on over, He leaned on my shoulder
And whispered "Was it something I said?"
(Chorus)
I don't even know now,
And I don't even care.
I don't even know how,
And I don't even dare.
(Bridge)
Oh
Wah oo wah oo
Oh
Wah oo wah oo
(Verse 2)
I woke up this morning, to a light
That started shining in my bed.
Never felt quite so alive, as in that time
When I was lost in my head.
I went away a couple days, and then I found my way
On the top shelf in your shed.
Then the Pain came on over, He leaned on my shoulder
And whispered "Was it something I said?"
(Chorus)
I don't even know now,
And I don't even care.
I don't even know how,
And I don't even dare.

Pisces, Places, and Plans
You know, sometimes, I like to take a walk.
A lonely walk down my lonely street
To the lonely sounds and the lonely beats
From my lonely head to my lonely feet
Is this lonely heart, 'Cause it's only me.
Walking alone
Can't find a friend of my own
I hope that you always know
Sometimes, that's just how it goes
And if you're on the same boat
Just pick up your telephone
You know I'm right up the road
And probably walking alone
Now, don't you?
Wanna take a walk with me
Outside, so we can obviously
Change our stars and destinies
And find some peace and harmony.
You know, in you, that I believe
As long as you'll keep following me
On down this road of scenery
Until we reach eternity.
I know what you're trying to say
Like you might not wanna go this way
And if you don't, well, that's ok
Cause you know that I can't force you to stay
But if you feel a bit daring today
Then I know of a dragon that we need to slay
We could be more merry than the month of may
With a dragons head, on a silver tray
Walking alone
Can't find a friend of my own
I hope that you'd always know
Sometimes, that's just how it goes.
And if you're on the same boat
Just pick up your telephone.
You know I'm right up the road
And probably walking alone
Now, don't you?
Walking alone
Can't find a friend of my own
I hope that you always know
Sometimes, that's just how it goes
And if you're on the same boat
Just pick up your telephone
You know I'm right up the road
And probably walking alone
Now, don't you?
Walking alone
Can't find a friend of my own
I hope that you always know
Sometimes, that's just how it goes
And if you're on the same boat
Just pick up your telephone
You know I'm right up the road
And probably walking alone
Now, don't you?

I Won't Bend
And you know the lord he loathes
He loathes my soul
And he never, ever once
Gave me control
And I'm trying to find a way
From under hand
I can't look away
And I can never look back
Now I know the farmer plants
all his seeds
Just as the builder builds
all of our cities
And I'm somewhere in between
Trying to amend
But I know you want me to break
And I won't even bend.
Sometimes, When we don't speak
I wonder, I wonder
What's a good looking girl like you, Not doing, talking to a good looking guy like me.
And I wonder
What's a good looking girl like you, Not doing, talking to a good looking guy like me.
And I wonder
And I wonder
And I wonder
What's a good looking girl like you, Not doing, talking to a good looking guy like me.
And you know the lord he loathes
He loathes my soul
And he never, ever once
Gave me control
And I'm trying to find a way
From under hand
I can't look away
And I can never look back
Now I know the farmer plants
all his seeds
Just as the builder builds
all of our cities
And I'm somewhere in between
Trying to amend
But I know you want me to break
And I won't even bend.
I wonder, I wonder
What's a good looking girl like you, Not doing, talking to a good looking guy like me.
And I wonder
What's a good looking girl like you, Not doing, talking to a good looking guy like me.
Me,
And I wonder.

In God We must trust
So we don't end up at the bottom
We don't end up at the bottom
Of the pile
If you're looking for me
You can ask the Sun
You can ask the stars
Me and the Moon
Will be hanging
Out late this eve.
I don't know what to think
That's a common problem
A common problem
For me and my friends to be facing
This world
Don't even seem right
for the boys
It ain't never seemed right

Devil's In The Details
(Intro)
You know people say
That the devil's In the details
And you know what?
I tend to think that's true
If you come running back to me right now,
I might have something left for you.
But if you can't make it back to me, somehow
Then I'll tell you what you gotta do
Go on and suck it
Go on and suck it
You can suck it, if you can
Suck it, if you would
You know I could stay longer
But you're just no good
Now go on and shove it.
Mmmmmmm
Well if you come running mouth to me right now
I might have something left for you
If out the side of your face you speak somehow
There's just one thing I'll say to you
Go on and suck it
Go on and suck it
If sucking was a sport
You're taking home the gold
Cause you've been sucking since one day old
Now go on and shove it.
Ohhhhhhhhho,
Ohhhhhhhhho,
Ohhhhhhhhho,
Well If you come trying to bargain with me right now
Then I'll leave something here for you
But it won't be what your seeking pal
My dick in hand is my gift to you
Go on and suck it
Mmmmmmm
Go on and suck it
Well you can suck it south
You can suck it in the north
Suck it on either or both our coast
Now go on and shove it.

Lies
Lies
You're lies
Shine brighter
Than the way that I hoped
You would follow out the night
Do you understand my pain?
Would you follow me?
You're light might
Might not
I hoped that you would find
I hoped that you had found
I hoped that you were blind
I hoped that you were bound
To your words
Don't let it fall up under my feet
'Cause I don't know if I concede.
Don't let him come in the drones
Cause I don't even know
if I was drinking your rum
but I want some.
Could you hold yourself for one moment
Cause I don't even know if I'm on it
Just yet.
Won't you speak your lies
Won't you speak your lies
To me, Before I realize
That 2 plus 2 equals 4
And 4 plus 4 equals 8
I hoped that you were living
In the same world that I'm complicatin'
6 plus 6 is 12
And three 6's equal, the devil.
6 times 3
it equals me
until eternity
Pony up
Take a ride with me
I've got a sunset
You have to see
And if you
Don't know
In time, what I'm trying to say to you
I hope that you would follow,
Follow me through.
All the walls
And all the doors
I'm trying to get to the places that we were before
Lies

Burned By The Devil
(Chorus)
I wish the voices
Would stop talking to me
And all the faces
We're not make believe
I wish that I could
I just wish that I could
Erase my memory
Erase my memory
(Verse 1)
We were burned
Oh yeah, We were burned
We were burned by your devil
But we don't know how
'Cause he doesn't exist
And he won't come back here.
Yeah you say
Oh yeah you say
That it don't really matter
That much anyway
You better get off your cloud
Or he will knock you down.
Well, we walk
Oh yeah, we walk
Like a bermudan triangle
And we pointed it out
And we'll, we are time.
But that never feels right
(Chorus)
I wish the voices
Would stop talking to me
And all the faces
We're not make believe
I wish that I could
I just wish that I could
Erase my memory
My brain is branded
Erase my memory
My brain is branded
Erase my memory
(Verse 2)
We were burned
Oh yeah, We were burned
We were burned by the devil
But we don't know how
He doesn't exist
And he won't come back here.
Well, we walked
Oh yeah, we walked
To an old dirt crossroads
Where the sky pours out.
And we made a deal,
But we're not sure how to feel.
Well, you say
Oh yeah, you say
That we should all be crucified
To save air and space
But when we rock it out
The whole place starts to shout
(Chorus)
I wish the voices
Would stop talking to me
And all the faces
We're not make believe
I wish that I could
I just wish that I could
Erase my memory
My brain is branded
Erase my memory
My brain is branded
Erase My Memory
