Warm Machine
i memorize the basics - making strange faces - tread slowly for i know - there's a thousand miles to go without blinking - I gravitate spacewards - find a home for my head from my basement - no darkness ever left
this is the night this is the sound - here comes the warm machine - such a warm machine
some days are playful making play faces - but we will not let it through - the darkness and the sense - of being born to lose
this is the night this is the sound - here comes the warm machine - such a warm machine
if we never know we can only feel - I'll take the help i'll take a slice, warm alright now - cos i feel alright
i memorize the basics, the basics, the basics
Jesus Online
whatever she wants from me - whatever device - whether in kindness or whether in spite - what can i say, what can i do - i can't help myself - i let the monster through

jesus online - wires around the world - feel invincible - computer car and girl - to be perfect just like you
whenever she comes with me - whenever we break - dress up my apathy pretend we're great
jesus online wires around the world - feel invincible computer carbon girl, computer carbon girl...

i want you to remember - a love so full it could send us always - i want you to surrender - all my feelings arose today - and i want you to remain - the power of children can make - i'll try not to complain - i know that's a pisser baby

we're of the hollow men - we are the naked ones - we never meant you harm - never meant you wrong - (and) i'd like to thank - all of my lovers, lovers, lovers
the chemicals between us - the army of achievers - lying in this bed - there is no lonelier place - than lying in this bed
English Fire

Spacetravel
they're polishing the government - that was the last waltz - we are the playthings we are the form - soon it may come since we can rise - too long since i've seen you - we move like satellites
the future lies - in space travel - she's coming over me
they're burning the tenements - topless progressive thinking - political holes got six but pray for seven
the future lies - in space travel - she's coming over me - i employ spies - to stroll the gravel - they never want to leave
the future lies, the future lies
i'm scared of the government
(scared of the government)
the future lies - in space travel - there's someone after me - i employ spies in silver tassels - they never seem that pleased - the future lies
40 Miles From the Sun
there is nowhere left to hide - there is nothing to be done - no people to be saved - no pets we've never named
40 miles from the sun
as darkness craves the mind - we come undone without our pride - no time on earth to come - all the pleasures just begun
40 miles from the sun
in our coats beneath the layers - wash my skin of all the hate - we should sleep late - everything just kind of grates - 40 miles from the sun
i need to lose to make it right - i'll confront the stars tonight - i will babble i will bite - you'll never know how much you shine
40 miles from the sun
Prizefighter
there are days when i fear for my life - i thinks that's strange - well that's the waste of you
sum up time now for you to run - i will always know you - you're my special one - now i'm up on this climb, up on this - climb i won't fade away
the best is yet to come - sad you're not around - the best is yet to come - better get our feet back on the ground
prisoner or passenger a free man or scavenger i'm a prizefighter
who will be there cover when you fall - we're all chasing something - how come you never call
i thought you were all beautiful - it doesn't make sense, sense, sense - i'm a prizefighter
The Disease of the Dancing Cats
infested, polluted - 80 tons of mercury dumped in the bay - it's bleeding there's no roof - that's no way to treat a good friend - your whiskey talks louder - than most things i've read you said - its sitting(?) in place now - sit back unwind and relax
big cheese is all greedy - it's all relative to what you needed
happy birthday, happy birthday
here's your nerve gas!
all fisherman and their families - all sickly crumbling cerebellum - it's all over for urang-a-tans - looks like they're back on the street again
mistrusted, disruptive - rape land and kill good habitat - world weary, world broken - well spent and money money money - injected, transmuted - 80 tons of mercury - dumped in a bay - it's breathing - it puts the dog in the basket
all sickly growing sentimental
invaded, downgraded - your bile lands right in my head - uncalled for, unwanted
my sinking zero tolerance!
it's all over for urang-a-tans looks like they're back on the street again
Altered States
living in a cage, washing in a bird bath - sinking in a fish bowl on a broken farm - i try to never lie i really do - i wonder if my friends - will get me through - conscious of the way as best as we can
17 ways to kill a man
states we've been through
killing nostalgia for future swims - trash all your bridges - kill the rock and roll thing -
i want to move on with no complaints - building our walls with yesterday - might as well shine before you slide - might as well live before you die
states we've been through
a whole lot more of emptiness
living in a state of constant changing (dog barks) a river of flux for our tasting - i try to never lie i really do - i wonder if my friends - will get me through - it always seems to rain when you leave - i try to stem the flow as we bleed - states we've been through

Letting the Cables Sleep
you in the dark you in the pain - you on the run - living a hell living your ghost - living your end - never seem to get in the place - that i belong - don't want to lose the time - lose the time to come
whatever you say it's alright - whatever you do it's all good - whatever you say it's alright
silence is not the way - we need to talk about it - if heaven is on the way
you in the sea on a decline - breaking the waves
watching the lights go down - letting the cables sleep
silence is not the way - we need to talk about it - if heaven is on the way - we'll wrap the world around it -if heaven is on the way

help me sometime, i need that much - don't you think it's strange - how we can turn to dust
think it's strange, like weird is strange - we'll never run when we've got all these broken bones
it's so hard to let you go
but i will make you change your mind
think of me sometimes, i'd never tell - do you recognise me, think you know me well - i think you're changing, configurating - destroyed the lines that fed the goods to your heart
it's so hard to let you go
run with the hunted - as you come - run with the hunters - i was one
but i will make you change your mind
i will make you change your mind
