Superfine
04:26

Looks like we're going out
After everything's been tried
Leaving all our days in doubt
Can make you squint when you're outside
I don't get it
I guess I do
It ain't yours and it ain't mine
And since it don't belong to us
it must be superfine
And you can't do like I want
And I won't do like you say
It won't be crowding our thoughts
Blow out your candle killed the day
It gets wrecked it's just as well
It's just something left behind
And if you left it on that bus
It would be superfine
And it ain't hard to know
That we'll never get to be
And I'm as tired as you
As you are tired of me
Hang the light on let it live
Name what you're after
Get what you give
As long as you don't cross that line
It would be superfine

No One Likes You
04:00
|
|||
Muddled, sullied, ostracized
You don't care much
When the grind gets in your eyes
Wipe those tears off of your face
No one likes you
Alone at your window
Just looking all around
Still looking as your scream out
At the rain
Wipe those tears off of your face
Wipe those tears off of your face
No one likes you
No one like you at all

If You Did Not Know It
04:27
|
|||
If you did not know it by now
Come on and ask your little friends
There's not one thing about you
I don't already understand
If you did not know it
If you never did figure it out
Who's blood your choking on
Every time that we kissed on the mouth
It's in my dreams
It's in my dreams
Of a black ship sailing in
Sinking sun of your horizon's just begun
I've been waiting on the wind
And it's blowing you away
If you did not know it by now
I'm a steam driven train that's been pulled by an engine
For so long that it
Runs on the rain
If you did not know it
If you never did figure it out
Come sit down here beside me
And I'll try to explain
It's in my dreams
It's in my dreams
Of a black ship sailing in
Sinking sun of your horizon's just begun
I've been waiting on the wind
And it's blowing you away
And it's blowing you away
And it's blowing you away
And it's blowing you away
And it's blowing you away

Halo
05:02
|
|||
He says babe I've got to go for awhile
But I'll be back to make you smile
She believes every single word
And she'll be waiting here for him to return
Trains keep pulling out
To the station
She'll keep waiting now
Be so patient
She'll keep waiting for his return
She'll be waiting
Yeah, she'll be waiting
And she says I just want to be
Somebody's spark
I just want to light up the dark
And have a halo around me
I'll have a halo around me
World keeps moving
World is spinning
World so static
Yet, she'll be waiting
Yeah, she'll be waiting
She just wants to be somebody's spark
She just wants to light up the dark
And have a halo around her
She'll have a halo around her

Between My Teeth
05:56
|
|||
Behold my deep dish
My lion sweet fish
Oh my castle in the sand
I have come to take your hand
I'll be right beneath your window
With a rose between my teeth
I brought my skin and my
best violin
I never win
Some times I do
But all I ever wanted
Right next to your sweet neck
It's vampire kiss
Just check
Let me kiss you where it hurts
All up and down you
I'll be right next to your window
With a rose between my teeth
I brought my skin and my
best violin
I never win
Some times I do
But all I ever wanted
Some times I miss
Some times I don't
All I ever wanted

We'll Fall Down
03:22
|
|||
I remember when we first met
Now I'm trying to forget
Good times and the
Bad times too
I'm crawling out of this train wreck
I'm black and burnt, and sick
And I'm only half the way through
Don't think about no one else
Just think about yourself
And we'll fall down
Together
Just think about yourself
Don't think about no one else
And we'll fall down
Together
Your lips were full and fine
And now they are telling mine
Goodbye, good luck, and so long
The light behind your eyes
Has faded down with time
And now the light behind mine's gone
Don't think about no one else
Just think about yourself
And we'll fall down
Together
Just think about yourself
Don't think about no one else
And we'll fall down
Together

The River
07:16
|
|||
The fire in your eyes
And the smoke from your hair
And if the sun's in your eyes
Darling as if you care
There's the one's that you do
And the one's that you don't
The one's that you will
And the one's that you won't
Come on meet me down by the river
We're going to burn the whole bridge down
Come on meet me down by the river
We're going to burn the whole bridge down
It chops and it grinds
It goes down in its wake
And the time that you give
Be the time that you took
You gave it to me
I made it a book
And I tried to show you
But you wouldn't look
Come on meet me down by the river
We're going to burn the whole bridge down
Come on meet me down by the river
We're going to burn the whole bridge down
