Anybody Lost?

So buckle up and breathe right in
Better yes than no
We’ll make a stop in Snoreditch
For domestic violets on the shore
This muddy river’s a dive inn
Meet some proper fish
Care for some sea weed tea Sir
Now it seems the world’s your Oyster Card?
Now count to three and make a left
Ain’t that winteresting?
Run for two hundred meters
For the earth’s the limit for you here
Am I the only one who sees
The face on the moon?
You wish you had no face
And when you face the end you’re here again

The Opposite Of Love
05:44

Fornicate
Procreate
Replicate
Recreate
Let the waters bring and
Let them bring it forth abundantly
Bring it waters bring for our eyes
the moving creature
I provide with every herb
Give you every bearing seed
It’s not good that the man should be alone
I will make him i will help and meet for him
What’s the opposite of love?
All of your blood
Your lives I require
There at the hand of the beast
All of your blood
Your lives I require
There at the hand of man
Better live on beggar’s bread
And live with those who love alive
Than taste their blood in rich feasts spread
And guiltily survive
I provide with every herb
Give you every bearing seed
It’s not good that the man should be alone
I will make him i will help and meet for him
What’s the opposite of love?
And all of your blood
Your lives I require
At the hand of the beast
And at the hand of man
What’s the opposite of love?
Fornicate
Procreate
Replicate
Recreate
All of your blood
Your lives I require
There at the hand of the beast
All of your blood
Your lives I require
There at the hand of man

Tik Boom Crash

Tik tik tak my heart goes breaking again
Well it must be the Greek blood in my veins
Oh sorry I punched you in the face
I didn’t mean it
I was just dancing
Tik tak why are these poor worms so afraid
Is it because I smash them every day
If I look like a junkie then you’re right in a way
But get the message
I’m here to stay
The world needs to be rebuilt
I can’t promise I’ll try
But I promise I’ll make it yeah yeah
How many drinks have you had
Looks like they’ve gone to your head
No more excuses in bed
Oh baby, yeah baby
Boom boom crash my heart goes breaking again
Now everybody wants to go down on me
Keep your eyes wide open
Or you won’t look good
And you won’t see well
Our home needs to be rebuilt
I can’t promise I’ll try
But I promise I’ll make it yeah yeah
How many drinks have you had
Looks like they’ve gone to your head
One more excuse in your bed
Oh baby, yeah baby

Songs mean nothing to the deaf
And looks mean nothing to the blind
But, are we even lucky to be none?
Joe will never hear this song and
And Ann has never seen his face but
Oh, if that’s not love then I’m the Pope
I wish that I was missing you
instead of kissing you
And that’s to say I’d scare you away
You wouldn’t last a day in my head
A day in my bed
A day, no, a minute in the life I’m living
You wouldn’t last a day in my head
A day in my bed
Not a second
There is violence in styling
Oh, go back to sleep, my darling
Big self will always win in the end
They don’t have a name for guys like me
They must be scared of what they
See, they’re always talking saying nothing
I don't hang out with guys my age
They're so much older than me
And that’s to say they scare me away
You wouldn’t last a day in my head
A day in my bed
A day, no, a minute in the life I’m living
You wouldn’t last a day in my head
A day in my bed
Not a second
I let my guard down
That poor guy had such strong hopes for me
And that’s to say I scared him away
You wouldn’t last a day in my head
A day in my bed
A day, no, a minute in the life I’m living
You wouldn’t last a day in my head
A day in my bed
Not a second

Blue

No goodnight tonight and I
I cannot sleep
How am I supposed to sleep
With no goodnight tonight
Mine has been this far an unfairy tale
Dark-hearted and dark-arted
People are worse than you think
Look at all my friends
And how they used to be
From “we should start a band”
To “who the fuck are you”
Oh yeah
Save me from a sober heart
My inner ear
My inner fear
This planet’s really spinning round
And it’s mad
There’s so much time between us
Lying in my bed
Lying to my face
Life is but a game
You don’t have to win this time
Look what I’ve done to my heart
Look what I’ve done to my face
If love is everything then how come
It’s not enough now?
Why my sweet perversion
Why kill imagination
My heart my love my light my compass
Yours is the hand my hand’s
always reaching for
On a bumpy flight

Amazing Grey
03:23
|
|||
There’s a place where we’re all beautiful
And all we have is all we need
Or so they say
There’s a chance I’ll never get away
I’ll always be someone
The only way out is through
Amazing grey
You are the proof of God’s existence
And I love you so
But I only belong to myself
We may be blind
But close your eyes and see
That life gets in the way of living
The writer cannot face
An empty page
There’s a place where we’re all beautiful
And all we have is all we need
Or so they say
There’s a chance I’ll never get away
I’ll always be someone
The only way out is through
That was pretty but pretty meaningless
They’ll wipe your face away
And take you by the hand
Life has hurt you so you’re going for a new past
Well, I have to go
I’ve got a dream to catch
Life is a day
We’re full of answers looking for questions
My universal loneliness
A world full of solutions
Looking for problems
My life and all my little funerals
But nature kills and nature thrills
Them frigging keys were in my pocket
All along
There’s a place where we’re all beautiful
And all we have is all we need
Or so they say
There’s a chance I’ll never get away
I’ll always be someone
The only way out is through
That was pretty but pretty meaningless
They’ll wipe your face away
And take you by the hand
Life has hurt you so you’re going for a new past
Well, I have to go
I’ve got a dream to catch

The Sunny Side Of It All
03:45

Cinnamon girl
What news will the phone bring
Go get it now
Who said you should wait
I threw myself in and what do you know
The heavens bled I couldn't let go
Was that all? Oh no oh no
And if it doesn't come to you
Don't take one step towards it
But if it does open up and don't resist
I just don't wanna decide any more
Let go and lose myself in the world
(Walk on the dirty side of the road)
Just for the sunny side of it all
I just don't wanna decide any more
Lavender smell
What's got into your head
I smile when you hold
Your Chinese head
I know when you laugh I know when you cry
I know when you wanna get down and die
For the sunny side of it all
And if it doesn't come to you
Don't take one step towards it
And if it does open up and don't resist
I just don't wanna decide any more
Let go and lose myself in the world
I know when you laugh I know when you cry
I know when you wanna get down and die
But difference is prettier than beauty

Stains On The Wall
03:33
|

When heroes fall then heroes crawl
This was meant to be
Two words I’m only looking for
And a melody
Some way out of this parking lot
Out of this memory
I’m barking cause I’m scared
Don’t you see
How can’t you see
All leaves are blown away today
Leaves are left behind
I’m struggling for my petty youth
Drowning in my pride
Oh fall my dear fall will you come
With clouds that will cover me
Dear God before I die
Promise me
You’ll let me check out first
And it’s getting so unreal every time we talk
What kind of music could have left
All these stains on the wall?
What kind of man would erase all your settings
And plant all these things in your head?
When heroes fall then heroes crawl

Venus In An Ambulance
05:45

And if you go away
It will be forever
And if the tears you’ve shed
Dry on my leather
I’ll miss the sounds you made
And the games
We’ll never play our games again
I’ll miss our holy grave
And the slave
You’ll never be my slave again
And if the end of this
Will be forever
I’ll say a prayer for you
For heaven must know
You are my only one
I must die
Cause everything is cruel without you
You are my only one
So please
Let my body lay beside you
I’ll miss the sounds you made
And the games
We’ll never play our games again
I’ll miss our holy grave
And the slave
You’ll never be my slave again

Best Home In Years
05:01
|
|||
People go to exhibitions
I get to look at your face
For free
Are you a thing?
Can you even happen?
Well in that case you're the best thing that's happened
In years
I wanna lie under a tree with you
I wanna hear the sea with you
I love your armpits and I love your legs
Best homes in years
Cause it's like holidays when I'm around you
Always
Roller skating at the park
Feed me chocolate and beer
We said I love you too soon
And I, oh I, went along with it
I was happy
And you made me happier
I must have done something good to deserve you
I must have
