- Cellophane
Some days you feel grand
And there's games to play
Enter a flame you cannot explain
She is divine you say
I am grand and you are mine
Will you dine today?
And she caught my heart with a gentle stare
- Chance of a Lifetime
First of all, I'm not as down as you
And there's a better way to walk around these days
I don't believe in cool
I went to summer school
There was a man unknown
Stripped himself down to the bone
And he said, "Hey, give me nothing, I'm from nowhere
- Dead Man Saloon
running down to the dead man saloon
drinks are wild in the afternoon let her
cool down so you can sleep tonight
holding dear to the lifeless champagne she
has left you with no sustain
you are slowing down so you can be free again
tripping out by yourself on the great plains
go and catch all the falling airplanes
- Dear Deadly
Can't you spend just a little bit of
Precious time for the cinema?
Get down off of your battleground
Change for a ten will bring the waiter round
Come silent, dear deadly
Just wanted to walk away
So brilliant, dear Velveteen
- Dreaming Again
Late one night when I was sad I walked down to a lonely place
Where I was safe, drank a beer and thought I had to hold
The world up in my hands, so full of shame thinking back
When I was bad the things I said to all my friends I shouldn't have
And the moon was red and I cried
Then some one touched me on my back
And I turned around to the most beautiful girl
- Empty Ships
"Pour yourself a strong drink" she said, thats all I needed
Have a seat with a cold trick that spun for days with out you
Turn around theres a new spring that shifts the weight of wanting
Empty ships will slow
Sink themselves in blue and chasing
And chasing
Sink themselves in blue and chasing
- Here We Are
So long to the life you always knew
Was never meant to be
Throw out a kiss and relax
You're growing away from me
Dance while the music's on
And the summer days grow long
Take my hand you are lost
- Hey Sister
Hey sister where you been?
I'm alone and out here it's dangerous
Tell my friends I'm coming home
It's a bust and they drove me crazy
Don't care what they say
I'm stranger now
Brought down this whole town
- Keep From Moving
Take down this ragged nest
You have built on unsteady ground
Bury what is left so safely
When no one is around
Years past sleeping in winter's place
Waiting deep underground
Rainfalls and so dry again
- Lover's Leap
Our love is on the fly
Is what you make of it
And someone's gonna die
Well, you're saving it
It's up to you
What else can you do?
There will come a time
- Naked Days
There will be light in the street
A cold coffin, merry sweet
One more dead
Killer waiting, losing his love
Now he lives in seclusion, counting his days
He has hopelessly won, knocked out of breath
He is facing the sun
- Second Chance
Whose side are you on is there a reason too you killed your soul you said you wanted a real life this isn't real life and no one knows which way you'll go I offer a second chance to get even with
Mstance right through the wall and even though you are sinking you've got the self control to rationalize your fate I know where you're going (to the hole where you're hiding) I'm going to pull you
Gain I offer a second chance to get even with circumstance right through the wall
- Sunfair
Gray hair is taking hold of me
Snake charmer's cut my throat and I'm loose again
Fell down drinking wine with him
Stole my saxophone, stripped me to skin and bone
Sad and lifeless, red and cruel
Ask myself "Can I fight this?"
Hangman standing in my room
- Tracy
The red light shines in back of me
And I'm tired of satans company
And it's bed time for the troubled sea
That's been raging and pouring out of me
Well, I found them beneath the marble stairs
An they asked me if anyone who cares
Would join them for lunch with brandied pears
- Under the Tracks
There is a place, it has a face and he was walking out the door
His mother said she was ashamed 'cuz he had no place to go
He was afraid and I was fine
He wanted peace of mind
Three times done and you're gone, and you're gone
You are free, you are free
It's a long way home
- Up All Night
I ran around with my head cut off
And it was frightening to say the least
Crowds of people stood around and stared
And it was frightening to say the least
Baby I should have come home
When I had the chance
But I was elastic and I was stretching
- Wonderful Love
Crash here we go you can face it or erase it
I do believe we can take it
And make it a wonderful love
You can taste it embrace it lovely
So sweet to see look after me social with company
Just you and me fall to the ground
You should wake up and turn up your favorite song
