The approaching disease, 92 degrees
The blood oin our veins and the brains in our head

Sunrise breaks its fatal perfume

Following desire in your eyes, in your eyes
You're mine, you're mine, all mine
Following the signs in your mind, your crazy mind
You're mine, you're mine, all mine
A crumpled future in your fist
The killing streak ascends sun kissed
And the firestarter from within
Pokes out from fever blistered grin

Someone's in cold storage
Seeking heinz main-courses
Craving for a raw love
He'll hide you from the cleaver
He'll hang with you forever
Longing for a fresh meat
You clamber up
And look behind
Their watchful eyes
The helping hands
A hen that's fierce
And painted blue
With red eyes
Wants to swallow you
A dragon dives and soars on tracks

Oh the air was shining
Shining like a wedding ring
Barbed like sex
I felt 10,000 volts
My chest was full of eels
Pushing through my usual skin
I opened up new wounds
Pouting, shouting

Shining like a wedding ring
Barbed like sex

My chest was full of eels

Personality changes behind her red smile
Every new problem brings a stranger inside
Helplessly forcing one more new disguise

Water was running; children were running
You were running out of time
Under the mountain, a golden fountain
Were you praying at the lares shrine?
But oh your city lies in dust, my friend
Water was running, children were running
You were running out of time
Under the mountain, a golden fountain
Were you praying at the Lares shrine?
But oh your city lies in dust, my friend
Water was running, children were running
You were running out of time
Under the mountain, a golden fountain
Were you praying at the Lares shrine?
But oh your city lies in dust, my friend
Here in my cot where my cot loves me
I'll stay here while in the cotton wool cocoon
'til the chrysalis is ripe 'til the time is right
With this feeling of insecurity
I have to shrink back inside ...
Cry for the bird with broken wings
Cry for the world that will not spin
Cry for the loss of innocense
Cry for a love, turned loveless
Sometimes I think of you, when I'm alone
Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence won't you come out and play
Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you

Moving -- like water

Got to get up, get into life
Got to get up and live this life
Got to get up and win this life
No more looking down -- look up
Skyward up your eyes -- devour the sun now!
Now me and my partner we work on the run
The quick try to get quicker
And the creepers get hung
Now it's you that got wasted tonight on the job
One lost his liquor
And the other lost his head ...

The night is still

And murmur like a ghost

We've come to play in the happy house
And waste a day in the happy house
It never rains

Symbols clashing everywhere

While the population feeds
Junk floats on polluted water

Little orphans in the snow
With nowhere to call a home
Start their singing
Waiting through the summertime
To thaw your hearts in wintertime
That's why they're singing
Little orphans in the snow
With nowhere to call a home
Start their singing
Waiting through the summertime
To thaw your hearts in wintertime
That's why they're singing
Little orphans in the snow
With nowhere to call a home
Start their singing
Waiting through the summertime
To thaw your hearts in wintertime
That's why they're singing

Send me forwards-say my feelings
But all the signals-send me reeling

One day I'm feeling total
The next I'm split in two

A ring and a car

No party she'd not attend
No invitation she wouldn't send

Here I sit in paradise
My head between my hands
Little sister, break your vow
Break down, the sacred side
Little sister, break the rules
Break me in two
Too many fools blocking my motion
Clouding my eyes must be the potion
Spots on my eyes must be the lotion
Love in a void, it's so numb
Avoid in love, it's so dumb
Love in a void
Too many fools blocking my motion
Clouding my eyes must be the potion
Spots on my eyes must be the lotion
Love in a void, it's so numb
Avoid in love, it's so dumb
Love in a void
I smash the glass into my face
Cutting through to my disgrace
Disregard for bone and flesh
How can I be in such a mesh of unlikeliness?
I smash my likeness

You are the melting man
You are your situation
There is no time to breathe
And yet one single breath
Leads to an insatiable desire
Of suicide... in sex

Reunion begins
With a glass of mercury
Whilst television flickers
For (with) another news bulletin
Flints light up the eyes
Of the seated family
The word you learn to love the disapproval that you hate that's mother from mother
They teach you to respect... makes you always want to please mother mother
It's just a habit
When I reach to the packet
For my last cigarette
Until the day breaks
And then my hand shakes
But it it's just driving me insane
When the smoke gets in my brain

You buried it so deep
So safe in hidden sleep
But like a tell-tale corpse
Rises to the surface
Over-ripe and bloated
In naked time-lapsed truth
Thought it was lost forever
Remember this
The cracks in the ground grin up at me
Even the creases in my shoes smile up at me
Thought it would end in tragedy
But I'm swimming around in your glory
Silver couches to recline upon
And ornaments of gold
Silver moonbeams dance in fountains
Below shining citadels
Surrounded by silver gates ascending silver stairs
Eureka on angelic prayer wafts ...

Another night beckons to you

Another night beckons to you
Shadows look as you resist the gloom
Faded hues issue forth and bloom

Swinging in the trees
Running from your enemies
And falling on your knees

Get down on your knees

Swinging in the trees
Running from your enemies
And falling on your knees

From the fury pit, a reek of misery
Like a trumpet groan, tornado moan
The splendor splits like a golden skin
He and the wizards cry like humming birds
In treasure glows, your weeping wings

Bad word,
Or bad deed,
Unpunished invites grief,
Here's
Rawhead and bloodybones
Reaching from
Dark cupboard
Crouching under stair,
Lurking in chimney,
Pond or well
Coronets rest on a death's head mask
No-one is safe while the curfew lasts
But crusted orbs glitter, sceptres gleam
While helmets of blood fill the screen
In the soil of out sadness
Hear our hearts bell a serenade
A faint choir tenderly shaping
A lament ... a hollow refuge
In the blood of the twinkling sky
Breathing in air drunk dry

The voice asleep, the voice has vanished
From the top of the sky to the place below
Touch the surface and the mirror bends
Your words resound, out of control
Freeze into time now
The voice asleep, the voice has vanished
From the top of the sky to the place below
Touch the surface and the mirror bends
Your words resound, out of control
Alone and left to ponder everything
Alone and left to puzzle out all the pain
Such a silly, silly, silly thing
You must catch it and cease it while you can
Accusations flying -- colliding cheek ...

Of swirling currents in a long forgotten sea

Southern trees bear strange fruit,
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root,
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze,
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees.

In different places into wrong categories
Familiar problems cross the wires
Same old faces and fuse humanities
Watch the muscles twitch
For a brand new switch...

Deep in the heart
Of a seething beast
Think of bright lights
A splendid feast
But something's missing
She's feeling low
Something's missing
She's going home
You awoke in a burning paperhouse
From the infinite fields
Of dreamless sleep
You return to tiannammen
An eyewitness in a shroud
To see them fall, feel them yield
Reliving the terror of the cr ...

I am the passenger
And I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backside
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah the bright and hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
I am the passenger
And I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backside
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah the bright and hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
Oh pull on the rein
And haul me in
Back to the start where eyes first blink to see
A flowing mane
A cut-glass limb
And they're falling soaring so rhythmically
Hearing you in my sleep
Feeling you your cadence seeps
Whispering in flashback the spectres of your memories
Fall in glistening showers such a tender descent
Intones this haunting lament

This unrest beats out my breath
Disconnected thoughts jangle in a mess
This unrest crucifies my chest
Without anaesthetic it cuts
Through tumorous flesh

And sit before it gets too late.
