I remember touching down
I remember the smell and the sound
White flowers in the parking lot
With you I remember quite a lot
These days I’ve become quite the bed case
Feel like I’m 5x5
Do I want to save the world
Or just cut out its insides?
You make me feel like god
Even when I’m down below
You make me feel so good
I think I’m gonna blow
You look like California
Take me there
You put me in a coma
But I don’t scare

Joey

I knew you before you could date
Before life served you up on a plate
Saw him pick you up in his car
Joey’s got us all seeing stars
But I don’t care
I’ll just never be cool
Never be one of you
Tell me where do you get your clothes?
I just gotta have some of my own
Saw him pick you up in his car
Joey’s got us all seeing stars

Control Me
02:54
|

He said to me "I don’t know how it’s gonna be
Without you, without me"
I said to him "I don’t wanna find out what it’s like
Because you control me”
You control me always
This is how we learn to be happy
This is how we learn the hard way
I got a job that I hated
Because I don’t want your god to get mad
It’s worth my glass of wine
And the bed that I sleep in every night
It’s worth the cash because it controls me
It controls me always

Not Likely
02:54
|
|||
|
I have felt your arrows pierce
Not lightly
I could dream you didn’t mean it
It’s not likely
I have felt your sword come down
Behind me
Rabid like a dog, I could take you out
Don’t test me
I see you walking alone at night
You’re so boring
The dark can take you for a ride
Fair warning
She said don’t be like that
I told her to shut up
She gave me a drag off of her cigarette
I took her home
Everything you say to me
Flutters out so gracefully
I could catch it like a butterfly
Or kill it just as quickly
But it’s not likely

In my car
Can hardly steer
In my desk
Many pens there
Write my name
Cross it out in shame
Burn it up
Blow away
I’m insanely healthy in my head
It’s crazy how stable I am
In my death
Cannot be heard
In his eyes
Evil it burns
Call my friends up
I wanna go out tonight
Meet a guy
Blow away
In my car
Can hardly steer
In my desk
Many pens there

The Glow
02:24
|
|||
|
Every piece of you, it makes me sick
I’ve seen you in the glow and it’s the pits
I want you to know
I need it to show
I’m dead into you, inside and out
I’m dead into the things you want me to shout
I wanna say your name a little too loud
I wanna kill myself inside of your mouth
In the games we played, the twists the maze
You were watching someone you can’t place
Someone you know
Who needed a show

Swimming
03:14
|

|
I’ve got an end game job if I need it
We’ve got your mother’s car if we feel like driving faster
With you
When you sing to me I fall asleep
When I go swimming I go real deep
If you have somewhere to be
I’ll take you there, take you home with me
When I pick flowers I lie in the grass
When I ask questions you shatter like glass
If you have somewhere to be
I’ll send you there, away from me
When I go swimming I go real deep

Hang Me
03:29
|
|||
|
I don’t quite know you yet
But you’re sleeping in my bed
If you can’t see, I will not break
Inside your claws a million snakes
Do I sink or swim?
I don’t really know
Am I the witch you hunt?
Hang me, throw your stones
I never thought you could be
Something wretched, ugly
I never thought you could be
I can see it makes you mad
See you claw and spit, it’s just too bad
See your mark, your branded wound
I feel so little, can’t feel you
I never thought you could be
Not ever to me
I wouldn’t bet my money
Light a match and burn me

Sell My Head
02:33
|
|||
|
I was taught along with math that sister was a psychopath
And everyone should know about it
Everyone should know and I did
I was taught in elementary brother was just gonna fight me
I don’t really care about it
Sit inside your room with nothing
I drank you up like wine
Till my teeth were black and white
You always know just what I like
You drank me up like wine
Educated, seventeen, violated, no esteem
I don’t wanna know about it
I would sell my head for nothing

Poise
03:08
|
|||
|
I’m so dusk, breathing in angel dust
Wanna find a darker way to fuck
I’d feel better in a crypt than up there with you
Make my mouth move, make me say anything
Move me just like all your other puppet girls
Make me want you
I would kill for some goddamn noise
I would kill but a girl’s got poise
I would kill to be one of the boys
I would kill
I saw death in the mirror in my room
Tie me up with ropes made of you
I’m just feeling sickly all the time
I’m just feeling sick
Make my lips move, make me touch anything
Kill me just like all your other puppet girls
Make me want you
I would feel better in a crypt than with you
I would feel better trapped inside of a tomb
I wouldn’t wanna jinx it but I know that it’s true
I don’t feel better

Pretty Girls
03:42
|
|||
|
Started with a bad night
Couldn’t call you outright
Had to save some face
Know you like the blood and guts
You want a show of everything messed up
And I don’t know what you want
I watch you
You say that you don’t know me but you do
You say that you don’t love me but it’s true
Your smile’s kind of morbid
Can’t say I don’t like it
Show me all your teeth
Other girls are pretty
Some are even witty
But can they kill like me?
And I don’t know what you want
Pretty girls are taking over me
Pretty girls are taking over you
I don’t know what you want
