CHEMICAL SUE (Freeze This Water) ©
O Chemical Sue I found an electron I can spare Came looking for you Thought maybe the two of us could share I see there's no more room for me now in your outer shell I have to freeze this water, never let it melt Hey Chemical Sue just look how unstable I've become I'm solo anew I'm negative now, I'm -1 I pray for some reaction from you. Rise and rebel I have to freeze this water, never let it melt O Chemical Sue I'm forever falling to your ground still orbiting you but what if some +1 comes around? I've turned so cryogenic my blood fixed to itself I have to freeze this water, never let it melt
We don't deserve to be so pretty but we are It's like they dropped us from the sky one world too far Where did the plan go wrong, the two of us just don't belong Tied up naked, basic lovers in a car You sent a signal once and then your circuits froze I tried my best but never broke your german code When they fished me out of the blue my lungs were filled with you With all your love letters still dripping from my clothes Hey hey it's all right I feel alive this time Don't feel so bad these days you seem so sad I waged my wars for you as softly as a prayer I burned whole cities to the ground to show I care They told my loved ones on the phone my eyes had turned to stone Don't make me open them, don't end this love affair Hey hey it's all right I feel alive this time Hey hey it's all right but why weren't you home last night give me some time, give me a break, give me your softest leather i was inclined to make a mistake, and linger like a song forever you're out of line, i'm out a breath, one day you'll know me better remember the time, remember the day you met her Hey hey it's all right I feel alive this time Don't feel so bad even though you turn me on when you're sad
If there's a password to the soul We must have let it slip a long long time ago We're too at home inside our skin When all the lights go out I feel you creeping in I pledge my time and space to you I pledge my time and space to you If there's a key to all our doors We're not the only ones who hold it anymore No telling who can get inside No matter how I go they'll call it suicide I pledge my time and space to you I pledge my time and space to you What immaculate nights spent in your bed woke to find you fleeing the scene of the crime O Lord, can't get you out of our heads find you, it's a matter of time There's always something left behind A trace of evidence, a fingerprint, a sign You tried so hard to disappear You hardly sleep at night, you know the dogs are near I pledge my time and space to you I pledge my time and space to you CHORUSGirl, why do you call when you know that I'm at home? You know I can't pick up you know I'm not alone why do you call? You don't want to talk to me. We spent our last long nights just breathing I'd like to spend my life alone with you if such a thing were possible to do I'd like to keep it to myself and give myself away if such a thing were possible to say Boy, why do you fall from your balcony each day You stand so close to god don't let him talk to you that way why do you fall, give your love time to arrive you're co close to the end, and the good guys always survive I'd like to spend my life alone with you If such a thing were possible to do I'd like to keep it to myself and give myself away if such a thing were possible to say Aristotle it's a lark, it's just a feeling but I know you're still around here in the floorboards and the ceiling Thank god I have someone to blame when a and non-a they can never be the same I'd like to spend my life alone with you If such a thing were possible to do I'd like to keep it to myself and give myself away if such a thing were possible to sayWhen we were together I never ever forgot to eat I'd look to both sides over 2 or 3 times whenever crossing your street When we were together I never ever touched myself even when I did I felt guilty like a kid just filthier than hell You turned me on to things I thought I'd never do Holy shit, she loves me, maybe I should love me, too When we were together I never ever Wrote a song I never meant to lose you so why did I refuse you and make your nights so long When we were together I never ever wondered why and I thought so cliché and stupid the way some men rushed to suicide You turned me on to things I thought I'd never do Holy shit, she loves me, maybe I should love me, too Why would anybody call my name out All my seals are broken I'm poisonous by now When we were together I never ever told the truth to myself thought I was saving it, saving it up for you When we were together you could never ever figure out what we were talking about what we were taking about You turned me on to things I thought I'd never do Holy shit, she loves me, maybe I should love me, tooMy mind is like a father My soul his only daughter He can't love her body So she must find another And he can't intervene He can only wait and see Who she brings into her night And if he raised his daughter right and you I think you're his favorite I'm not the one who found you I smiled and walked around you He deserves the credit For what I said and how I said it Because he knows, left alone, The heart would just beat on and on Without a point of Concentration Unimpressed by strange sensations like you but you became his favorite how can I confess what I've done by pushing you away in the opposite direction I made her only father doubt his only daughter's perfection I know it's strange to talk like this when art and theory all insist the trio, body, mind, and soul are partners in a common goal but they all want to be in absolute control of me Sometimes one betrays the other Surrenders me to the strangest lovers but you have always been their favorite
I'm a dumb brown dog in this world of men The bones you bury I dig up again They killed my papa outside of town called my mama a bitch and drowned her They tried their shotguns their iron chains but I fight and I fuck the same My master left me his hands were cruel he thinks I need him and I guess it's true They fixed their crosshairs bullet to the head And how my blood runs red My hide is broken My paws are sore My teeth are dull I don't have much more Suburban beauty the night so still I howl to get my thrillMARIE CURIE©Marie Curie heard you died setting particles free what made them turn around and melt you down One time I watched the dawn from your pantheon you told me I was cured but now you're gone but now you're goneMarie Curie tell me straight what's becoming of me my core just falls apart my eyes went dark her electronic glow I've been exposed dying from her touch I think she knows I think she knows When the feeling first sets it I know it's in my skin When I start to feel alone I know it's in my bones When all I see is red I know she's in my headMarie Curie I'm not sure you're listening to me Is Pierre by your side? That jealous guy Please don't let him get me wrong It's not your song Paris is one place I don't belong I don't belong The sirens get louder every day I'm without her live another half-life, hollow and silent on a 3-mile-island I try to contain it but my soul is in pain it's got me begging you please [unintelligible line] love is the symptom of some other diseaseShe brings me broken mirrors She brings me peace and pain things deep from the ocean With spines like autumn grain She brings me folded letters Then crushes me with blue But now she brings me nothing Because once she brought me you She rides on myth and sweat She rides on smoke and sin She rides upon the flat line I see in every lover's grin She rides upon the dial tone That no one thinks to play But now she cannot find a ride She watched you ride away She knows the exact proof of the whiskey That stole the banker's heart That cities belong to lovers Only once they fall apart She knows which way the letter folds But she crushes me with blue Now the girl knows nothing And she never never knew She holds my breath between her fingers She steals the warmth from rich men's clothes She sells her independence But buries every master's bones Like a child she hands me lightning And smiles at what she's found Now she cannot smile And her cries don't make a sound
PLANS FOR EARTH ©Simple computers tell between the ways you talk to me in conversation Standard machines could even learn to bring us back if we were just patient Do I remind you of anyone you know when my spine splashes in the plaster Did we survive that underwater crash. It starts so slow and gets faster I can't let you affect my plans for earth Corner the rabbits and lead them through the OED til they eat out of your hands 2 dollar bill I sent to bring you luck you think it's from some fucking punk band I can't let you affect my plans for earthLIKE A KNIFE ©She woke today direct sunlight on her face The clocks were set California time and space What if I removed all the evidence of me, boy? Whatever would you do, whoever would you be? She had to know all the details of the day My lips divulge verbs of motion and disgrace Mechanically it's boring technically the same I pressed against a girl and rubbed until I came CHORUS That's why my love is like a knife Even when it's dull, it can take your life So now we're back, wounded, waiting for the day to me she'd turn clear her pretty throat and say You're everything I want, boy, what have we become Berlin, Paris, Prague, London My love for you has come undone CHORUS The softer the blade, dear, the greater the damage it does I can cut you so softly because You're so fatally perfect for me The more I love the more you bleedPATIENT LITTLE SECRET ©Life is not what you do what you say We took it apart and it's not by design by mistake It's a patient little secret that you keep until your dying day Love is not about how you scream We took it apart and it's not so divine or obscene It's a patient little fish who stirs the milk inside your dish cultivates your cream The temperature in here is rising I think it's you One by one the crowd is dying I'm begging you to come back I can't get by When I see the headlights on the highway, dear God I try Suffer the boys but do not believe what they say We're simple and coy, but we're not pretty words on the page In between the love we speak and silent sex inside our touch is sweet sweet rage Once this cigarette starts burning it's got to end Naked bodies, planets turning, it's got to end, in fact You're right, I'm wrong This is not a tragedy. It's just a song.THE PLEASURE OF SIN WITHOUT SIN ©I buried the car, dear, in the woods Covered the headlights best I could Now the radio's on and the engine is idling suburbia basements are goddamn exciting At the tone the time will be Time to leave Running in exile on General's Highway Fucking a friend like it's permanent Friday CHORUS Usher the golden age in The pleasure of sin without sin You're feeling troubled, I spy Lie like a virgin. Don't be shy Just put everything in its logical order We talk in our sleep and we cry underwater Do you realize what we have, what we have? When we hide everything in the obvious places The lick of your tongue [unintelligible] CHORUS Neighbors are worried about me, a terrible story did you see did you See what she did, think she did it on purpose? There's evidence left upon every surface Do you realize what we have, what we have? When we hide everything in the obvious places [unintelligible] CHORUS
