Twilight Dreamer
i walked through a minefield with headphones on
i ran home crying in the blood red dawn
i shot the shit with satan's spawn
i swept up the love of some young fawn
i came out swinging with my sights set low
i sang off key with the radio
i said "come a little closer" but you had to go
so i gave my penny to your arcade soul
the more i sing to thee
lonesome as can be
the more you slip away
day by day
twilight dreamer
the angels all are gone
sunlight streamer
sing me a lonely song
true believer
everything is wrong
sky-high dreamer
forever's not too long
i stole your money and i stole your heart
i ate nine lives and i sold my part
i danced away every chance to part
with the half-dead dreamer in my heart
i said "okay" to a man of the law
i said "no way" with a broken jaw
i look so cute with my perfect flaw
i'll take off all my clothes and let you draw
the more i sing to thee
lonesome as can be
the more you slip awy
day by day
twilight dreamer
the angels all are gone
sunlight streamer
sing me a lonely song
true believer
everything is wrong
sky-high dreamer
forever's not too long
i'm coming up roses with my pretty little shotgun
i'm coming to town to have some fun
let's brush up on our battles both lost and won
let's get to close and then run, run, run
we are on the goodship yesterday
a hundred thousand miles away
it's a vicious game i choose to play
like a joyride on your wedding day
the more i sing to thee
lonesome as can be
the more you slip away
won't you stay?
twilight dreamer
the angels all are gone
sunlight streamer
sing me a lonely song
true believer
everything is wrong
sky-high dreamer
forever's not too long
I'm Leaving You
i'm a loser
i'm an angel
i'm a fixture of the night
you're exactly what i want, dear
but i just can't treat you right
so i'm leaving you tonight
i'm leaving you tonight
i'm leaving you tonight
i'm leaving you
on a late night
i go prowling
to find what i can't find
i am hopeless
i'm in God's land
but still i want to fight
so i'm leaving you tonight
i'm leaving you tonight
i'm leaving you tonight
i'm leaving you
i may speak of beauty
as i watch the falling snow
but in my life so twisted
i would rather watch you go
it's something i need
to lose what i believe
and you just so happened to be around
you just so happened to be around
you just so happened to be around
please don't take it bad
i'm a baby
i'm a momma
i'm a thief and a fly-by-night
i will find you
i will have you
and make you wish you had been right
so i'm leaving you tonight
i'm leaving you tonight
i'm leaving you tonight
i'm leaving you
i may speak of sorrow
as i watch the garden grow
in my life so twisted
i would rather watch you go
it's something i need
to lose what i believe
and you just so happened to be around
you just so happened to be around
you just so happened to be around
please don't take it bad
Follow / Hollow
well i had plans
to live a life free from tears
my only problem
was meeting you my dear
you said "follow me into the future"
the curve of your spine called me on
"follow me into the future"
i walked behind you, blind and dumb
can you blame me
can you blame me
can you blame me
i saw no fire
on that day that i met you
your eyes were pyres
they burned a blissful hue
they said "follow me into the future"
i thought you were mine
"follow me into the future"
i was yours, right behind
can you blame me
can you blame me
can you blame me
follow follow follow
hollow hollow
follow follow follow
hollow hollow
follow follow follow
hollow hollow
follow follow hollow
well now i know
i can't love those that don't love me
and now you know
two ways flows the river of misery
i'm singing follow me now
follow me now
follow me now
follow me
can you blame me
can you blame me
can you blame me
follow follow follow
hollow hollow
follow follow follow
hollow hollow
follow follow follow
hollow hollow
follow follow hollow
Toward the Rising Sun
the baby dies
the mother cries
it all just slips away
you know the love i have for you is great
the mother dies
the baby cries
it all just slips away
you know the love i have for you is great
please don't live in vain
you don't need that pain
still i feel the same
you will win this game
the father lies
the daughter cries
it all just slips away
you know the love i have for you is great
the daughter lies
the father sighs
it all just slips away
you know the love i have for you is great
please don't live with shame
you are not to blame
you fall asleep
with every shade of moonlight on your skin
i can't help but think
that this will never end
we tell this tale
and set our sail
toward the rising sun
we slip away
past yesterday
and smile
Julianna
you dress real sharp
like a delicate knife
bit white collar
and a windblown life
blackjacket slender
and your pale white wrists
looking like the woman
i could never resist
julianna
julienne me
julianna
julienne me
julianna
juli, end me
you dress real sharp
like a delicate knife
i like your style
and i like your thighs
think about her
now you're boring me
no more words
only ecstasy
julianna
julienne me
julianna
julienne me
julianna
juli, end me
you got a beauty girl
all your own
i'd like to get to know you soon
wish your hair
was the blonde i've known
i will never know you now
julianna
julienne me
julianna
julienne me
julianna
juli, end me
all i want is her today
you can just be her today
you dress real sharp
like a delicate knife
i'm the real weapon
and it's plagued my life
you look so tender
with your pale white wrists
you will be the woman
that i have to resist
julianna
julienne me
julianna

November Song
faces there
only stare
broken by
forms of night
all around
thunder pounds
frightful i
close my eyes
i don't feel
dead or real
faces stare
i'm not there
i won't cry
things are fine
by and by
i'll feel alright
i don't feel
dead or real
faces stare
i'm not there
i won't cry
things are fine
by and by
i'll feel alright
i'll feel alright
i'll feel alright
Fallen Angelica
every apple of the eye
every castle in the sky
could never hold a candle to
the sadness of her eyes
she's damned for all of time
all the world is blind to
fallen angelica
it all began one sunny day
a thousand years ago
a ray of sunlight strayed away
and made love to the snow
she whispers to the doves
the world hides all her love
fallen angelica
fallen angelica
fallen angelica
she's just a relic of
a girl with an invisible soul
gentle mortal gaze on me
let me haunt your reverie
this and more she says to me
although her eyes i'll never see
the greatest beauty of
the world hides all her love
fallen angelica
only once she said the words
that made her invisible
"please don't look at me"
or so the story goes
i'd take her home and touch her hand
i'd lead her to her promised land
but i know not who she is or where she lives
just how she gives
her loneliness to me
she will always be
fallen angelica
fallen angelica
fallen angelica
she's just a relic of
a girl with an invisible soul
the girl with an invisible soul
the girl with an invisible soul
the girl with an invisible soul
Soulless Sex Appeal
happy hell
jezebel
this is how it feels
salome
foreplay
jukebox dead-end dream
hot wax
birthday
cracked up lithium plane ride
pop star
whipped cream
acid trip of cyanide
breakneck
slowdown
everlasting love
cokehead
snowflake
you kill me just because
you are the sunlight of my dreams
you are exactly what you seems
my love is bursting at the seams
you kill me any way you please
you are a mindless work of art
you are the beating of my heart
you are the deathbed symphony
you are exactly what i need
you pack your cigarettes without no soul
look so pretty but i'm not sold
gotta make face with a broken soul
pack that sex appeal and hit the road
junk sick
axe to grind
the novel of your soul
heart of blades
oblivious
i'm laughing through the hole
deep sex
cheap love
the mysteries of God
cheap sex
deep love
a smile a wink a nod
hard luck
young buck
everlasting love
cokehead
snowflake
you kill me just because
you are the nightmare to return
you are the bridges i can't burn
you are the pages i can't turn
you are the lesson i can't
you are a mindless work of art
you are the beating of my heart
you are the mistress of the moon
you are the bulletproof cocoon
you pack your cigarettes without no soul
look so pretty but i'm not sold
gotta make face with a broken soul
pack that sex appeal and hit the road
decadence
chastity
ink black afternoon
sweet dreams
maybelline
life is but a rainbow
photograph
medicine man
true love magazine
telephone
bitch slap drone
hollow repetition
hollow repetition
sacred heart
atom bomb
suck my fascination
pound cake
severed head
vicious complication
apocalypse
love shack
show me how to please you
skull split wide
black and blue
nothing to hide for the heartbreak crew
priestess spit
euphoria
you drop me to my knees
cokehead
snowflake
you kill me just because
you are the sunlight of my dreams
you are exactly what you seems
you are the bitch-slap to my cool
you are the murderess of fools
you are a mindless work of art
you are the beating of my heart
you are the high i can't sustain
you are the bullet in my brain
you pack your cigarettes without no soul
look so pretty but i'm not sold
gotta make face with a broken soul
pack that sex appeal and hit the road
baby, hit the road
baby, hit the road
baby, hit the road
baby, hit the road
baby, hit the road
baby, hit the road
When I Die
all those afternoons
all those empty coffee
cups, i think of you
all those cigarettes
all those poignant things you said
oh, how i loved you
when i die
i hope i forget all of this loneliness
when i die
i hope i can lose each bittersweet thought of you
i'd say i miss you dear
but i would never say
what you'll never hear
it's hard to pass the time
i tried to lose you in this rhyme
but still the melody won't die
when i die
i hope i forget all this loneliness
when i die
i hope i can lose each bittersweet thought of you
i saw you yesterday
the rain fell on your sunny gaze
you never looked my way
and that's better
when i die
i hope i forget all this loneliness
when i die
i hope i can lose each bittersweet thought of you
when i die
i hope i forget all this loneliness
when i die
i hope i can lose each bittersweet thought of you
