Go without
'Til the need seeps in
You're lovin more
Collecting of the petals for the stem
And glow
Glow
Melt and flow
Eviscerate your fragile frame
And spill it out in the ragged floor
A thousand different versions of yourself
And if the old guards still defend
They got nothing left on which you depend
So enlist every ounce
Of your bright blood
And off with their heads
Jump from the brook
You're not obliged to swallow anything you despise
See, those unrepenting buzzards want your life
And they got no right
As sure as you have eyes
They got no right
Just put yourself in my new shoes
and see that I do what I do
because the old guards still defend
(pretty guards with shiny hands)
we got nothing left on which we depend
so enlist every ounce
of your bright blood
And off with their heads
Jump from the brook
You're not obliged to swallow anything you despise
you despise
that you despise
that you despise
that you despise

Magdalena

Overcome by your
Moving temple
Overcome by this
Holiest of altars
So pure
So rare
To witness such an earthly goddess
That I've lost my self control
Beyond compelled to throw this dollar down before your
Holiest of altars
I'd sell
My soul
My self-esteem a dollar at a time
One chance
One kiss
One taste of you my Magdalena
I bear witness
To this place, this prayer, so long forgotten
So pure
So rare
To witness such an earthly goddess
That I'd sell
My soul
My self-esteem a dollar at a time
For one chance
One kiss
One taste of you my black Madonna
I'd sell
My soul
My self-esteem a dollar at a time
One taste
One taste
One taste of you my Magdalena

Plays Pretty For Baby

I feel her smooth skin slightly
brush against the back side of my arm.
I need the song started over
Your crying made me miss my favorite part.
I hear the exclaimation point!!
Her eyes are so there [dee deee dee...]
They're greener...
Lay back, the song is almost over
I tried to hear you out but I dozed off.
I need the song started over
Your crying made me miss my favorite part.
Rachael, it's times like this I wonder!!

Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ, that's a pretty face
The kind you'd find on someone I could save
If they don't put me away
It'll be a miracle
Do you believe you're missing out
And everything good is happening somewhere else?
But with nobody in your bed
The night's hard to get through
And I will die all alone
And when I arrive, I won't know anyone
Well, Jesus Christ, I'm alone again
So what did You do those three days You were dead?
'Cuz this problem's gonna last
More than the weekend
Well, Jesus Christ, I'm not scared to die
I'm a little bit scared of what comes after
Do I get the gold chariot?
Do I float through the ceiling?
Do I divide and fall apart?
'Cuz my bright is too sly to hold back all my dark
And the ship went down in sight of land
And at the gates does Thomas ask to see my hands?
I know you'll come for me in the night like a thief
But I've had some time alone to hone my lying technique
I know you think that I'm someone you can trust
But I'm scared I'll get scared and I swear I'll try to nail you back up
So do you think that we could work out a sign
Some I know it's you and that it's over so I won't even try
I know you'll come for the people like me
But we all got wood and nails, we're tongue tied to a hating factory
Yeah, we all got wood and nails, we're tongue tied to a hating factory
Yeah, we all got wood and nails, and we sleep inside of this machine
