Blow your f*cking brains out
Blow your f*cking brains out
Tune that pale flame out,
Extinguish the glow forever and in will come the sun.
Blind your eyes, you are loved.
Trust in her aim, you are loved.
Now dance to the grave, you are loved.
No one will ever know who they are,
So blow your f*cking brains out
Blow your f*cking brains out
Tune that pale flame out,
Crack the egg wide open and out and out will pour enough
Once you stop believing in yourself.
Silence your voice
So raise your antenna towards the sky,
Put blood in the well if it dries.
What is now instead of what is next,
Our reflections only draw us to our death.
Tell yourself nothing.
Tell yourself nothing.
Tell yourself nothing.
Let the word come.
Let the word come.
Let the word come.
All eyes off, all eyes off, drift without a sight.
All eyes off, all eyes off, drift without a sight.
Blow your f*cking brains out
Blow your f*cking brains out

Pelican Of The Desert
Sever the nerve, the skin, the scale
Gather your bones from beyond the pale
Come out of the wild and into the world
Burn all the books, put out your eyes
Lower your sword, the end is nigh
Sink through the pinewood and into the dirt
Out of your body and into the sky
Give in
Voices will carry us
Turn around
Find your way back to the start
Love is the way
Love is the only way
Love is the only way out
Love is the way
Love is the only way
Love is the only way out
Don't freeze up in the headlights
Welcome it in
Walk through the storm to the eye
The birth will be calm
The birth will be quiet
But the dark had such long arms
Pulling me down
Sliding back into my head
Where all of it is thought without awareness
Where there is no foresight only penitence
I could scratch at the door but I will never get in
So I rise above or sink below
Either way I am false
At the center is all
I tripped up at the breakthrough
I was scared to die
So the gate locked, the light vanished
Now where am I
I was startled by the great height
I doubted my heart
Now the wine turns to water
And I am coming apart
Gather your bones from beyond the pale
Come out of the wild and into the world
Burn all the books, put out your eyes
Lower your sword, the end is nigh
Sink through the pinewood and into the dirt
Out of your body and into the sky
Give in
Voices will carry us
Turn around
Find your way back to the start
Love is the way
Love is the only way
Love is the only way out
Love is the way
Love is the only way
Love is the only way out
Don't freeze up in the headlights
Welcome it in
Walk through the storm to the eye
The birth will be calm
The birth will be quiet
But the dark had such long arms
Pulling me down
Sliding back into my head
Where all of it is thought without awareness
Where there is no foresight only penitence
I could scratch at the door but I will never get in
So I rise above or sink below
Either way I am false
At the center is all
I tripped up at the breakthrough
I was scared to die
So the gate locked, the light vanished
Now where am I
I was startled by the great height
I doubted my heart
Now the wine turns to water
And I am coming apart

Decayin With The Boys
I ain't afraid of the dark
I ain't worried about the savages loose in the night
But you show me the things I've done
And girl you know I get the chills all down my crooked spine
Kill the lights
I've seen too much
If so below, then as above
Lord knows I've seen enough
It's crystal clear and uglier than I thought
Desperate and lonely juggernauts
Illuminate the filth with the glow of your righteous heart
Shine a light upon the world
And i'll scurry back to the dark
Lights on, rats out
Somebody turn on the light, keep the rest down
The uppers lower me into the hive
The lights are low us weeds come alive
Downers pick me up into the ditch
I cannot scratch this never-ending itch
Salvation is a hell of a thing
Pull the dust up over your eyes
I don't believe I'll have a revelation with all these secrets of mine
And if I ever have a holy vision
It's going to be two at a time
I got so much soul in me that I'm barely alive
I've been down and out for so long baby I can't be revived
I ain't afraid to be long lost
I ain't bothered by the silence, the cold, or the roads that stretch for miles
But you show me the man I've become
And girl you know I want to tie up a rope and crack my crooked spine
Kill the lights
I've seen too much
I ain't worried about the savages loose in the night
But you show me the things I've done
And girl you know I get the chills all down my crooked spine
Kill the lights
I've seen too much
If so below, then as above
Lord knows I've seen enough
It's crystal clear and uglier than I thought
Desperate and lonely juggernauts
Illuminate the filth with the glow of your righteous heart
Shine a light upon the world
And i'll scurry back to the dark
Lights on, rats out
Somebody turn on the light, keep the rest down
The uppers lower me into the hive
The lights are low us weeds come alive
Downers pick me up into the ditch

Salvation is a hell of a thing

I don't believe I'll have a revelation with all these secrets of mine

Overstayer
I should have drown in the flood with the rest
I had the chance
The current was pitiless
And proof of man was wiped from the face of earth
The song, the dance
Yeah, I should have gone with it
Alas, I'm stranded alone in the wake
Now I have lost all sight of the grave
When did I ever say that I want to be saved
I can see for miles but it don't look the same
When no road has been paved go up
Go up
Now how am I gonna get down
I want a slow death wrought from the dregs
"I want to be sedated," just like joey said
I want the heaviest heart
I have eaten my weight in gold
I can see only what I'm shown up here
But in the coals with common men who yearn for ordinary things
Love cannot find us
So get out of my way
I got out of my own way
Better a tramp than a captive
Better alone than lonely with all these "friends"
What in the f*ck am I doing here
Why did the rapture not take me in
It is my curse to carry on
I should have died when I was young
I should still be burning lung
If I had known what I'd become
I should have drown in the flood with the rest
I had the chance, but here I a
I had the chance
The current was pitiless
And proof of man was wiped from the face of earth
The song, the dance

When did I ever say that I want to be saved

If There Is Room To Move Things Move
We opened the box and looked inside
Two animals, one is dead, one's alive
All we think we know is always wrong
The heavens fell in a thick awful shroud
That covered the earth, but there wasn't a sound
Nobody saw it so nobody heard it
All these equations won't solve the uncertain
Everything's dead until it's alive
Man will exist and then he will die
Just take the ride
See it now
Shift the absurd and the reasoned around
Make it so
Build holy places with towering stones
Open your eyes, its all there inside
Everything gone and forgotten survives
Everything we think we know is wrong
All the lead becomes gold
All the squares get circled
All the graves, emptied and covered up
We toil and we rot and terrible things happened just like I thought
And the cycle carried on until I thought nothing more and heartache was gone
Love it as it is
Whatever the f*ck this is
Or destroy it and start again
What we are is in your head
Hell broke loose, the stars unaligned
I looked for a kingdom that I'll never find
All I thought I knew was always wrong
I threw out the map and let go of the reigns
Led by a stranger into the strange
The answer is that there's no answer at all
Everything's dead until it's alive
Man will exist and then he will die
Two animals, one is dead, one's alive
All we think we know is always wrong
The heavens fell in a thick awful shroud
That covered the earth, but there wasn't a sound
Nobody saw it so nobody heard it
All these equations won't solve the uncertain
Everything's dead until it's alive
Man will exist and then he will die
Just take the ride
See it now
Shift the absurd and the reasoned around
Make it so
Build holy places with towering stones
Open your eyes, its all there inside
Everything gone and forgotten survives
Everything we think we know is wrong
All the lead becomes gold
All the squares get circled
All the graves, emptied and covered up
We toil and we rot and terrible things happened just like I thought
And the cycle carried on until I thought nothing more and heartache was gone
Love it as it is
Whatever the f*ck this is

Hell broke loose, the stars unaligned
I looked for a kingdom that I'll never find
All I thought I knew was always wrong

Moor
Pay no mind to the stranger in the 4 a.m.
He's not the one we know and he knows
I slept through the war you waged with him for a little bit
Until he cracked your bones and you had to let go
So I make believe I've discovered peace
But I'll skin the man alive and sell the meat
I'll wait in the dirt where he left your blood
If he returns for it I can make it right for good
Oh how I wish he would
Lost you in the overflowing fog that's been here awhile
So I plan to keep watch as long as the wolves are out
They're always around and more violent than hell
I have eyes of every color now and they're vigilant
It doesn't matter who knocks
You don't let them in
There are terrible men
I'm one so I should know
Heaven smiles on me now and then
But the devil always had hooks in
All I want is his head
And this horrible f*cking world will be wonderful again
There is so much beauty and love
And when I eat his beating heart I can bring it back to us
All I want is his head
And this horrible f*cking world will be wonderful again
There is so much beauty and love
And when I eat his beating heart I can bring it back to us
There's nothing that I couldn't do except cover you when the slings of arrows came
And I've never been the same
He's not the one we know and he knows
I slept through the war you waged with him for a little bit
Until he cracked your bones and you had to let go
So I make believe I've discovered peace
But I'll skin the man alive and sell the meat
I'll wait in the dirt where he left your blood
If he returns for it I can make it right for good
Oh how I wish he would
Lost you in the overflowing fog that's been here awhile
So I plan to keep watch as long as the wolves are out
They're always around and more violent than hell

Exometrium
Peel off the leather and dig out your heart (x4)
Right before your very eyes I slipped off the husk
I mastered the slight
There's a getaway car that's been waiting my whole life
The engine has been running since the moment I arrived
A trap door in the gallows let the charlatan out but smoke and mirrors box him in
The rags and the bones were such a burden that I thought I'd collapse
And only when I surrendered them did I find I had what it takes to burn myself at the stake
Did you smell a rat? (x3)
I had faked everything but my death
Across the divide and onto the shore
The strain on my back wasn't there anymore
Wisdom teeth have replaced the fangs (x2)
I've been scalped, scalped, scalped
I've been knocked unconscious and I still haven't come around
There was so much trouble on my mind all the time
Call on the ten thieves and tell the I'm ready
I looked up and the desert was everywhere
But insight comes through blackened eyes
I climbed a hill to dig a hole in the ground where I could bury the faithlessness and the evidence that I was ever actually right
My skin was on too tight
I could not identify the body
Us snakes evolve
It's what snakes do
I could not identify the body
Shed the fur and leave the womb
Peel off the leather and dig out your heart (x4)
Right before your very eyes I slipped off the husk
I mastered the slight
There's a getaway car that's been waiting my whole life
The engine has been running since the moment I arrived
A trap door in the gallows let the charlatan out but smoke and mirrors box him in
The rags and the bones were such a burden that I thought I'd collapse
And only when I surrendered them did I find I had what it takes to burn myself at the stake

Thirst
There was gossip
There were pleas
There were rumors of meaning in meaningless things
Widows readied their marital beds
Litters of bastards gnawed at your breast
The filthy are first to be showered in love
The world's gone mad
We dress them in furs as they travel the earth
Saints wear rags
You blessed our home
We took you in
But you had come to a place where the plague had been
It burrowed into your graces and aires
It took your queen
It hawked your wares
The stoic are first to be covered in shit and life goes on
But when it don't anymore I'll see you in hell where I am god
God damn it, wait
They don't love you like I do
But I don't know you like them
They don't love you like I do
They love you better
I know you best
Every hostile deed is your debt
It's not mine
Every hostile deed is your debt
It's not mine
There were pleas
There were rumors of meaning in meaningless things
Widows readied their marital beds
Litters of bastards gnawed at your breast
The filthy are first to be showered in love
The world's gone mad
We dress them in furs as they travel the earth
Saints wear rags
You blessed our home
We took you in
But you had come to a place where the plague had been
It burrowed into your graces and aires
It took your queen

The stoic are first to be covered in shit and life goes on
But when it don't anymore I'll see you in hell where I am god
God damn it, wait
They don't love you like I do
But I don't know you like them
They don't love you like I do
They love you better

Every hostile deed is your debt

Old Light
I'm a great oasis
Yeah I'm a mirage
I'm a beam of old light from a vanquished star and I'll only guide you into the dark
I'm a parasite with a tapeworm
Yeah I got a bulletproof vest
Knowing my bad luck I ain't ever gonna die so the good will never get any rest
Come bail me out of the state I'm in
The drinks I've had are no match for the truth
The crowd down here put its teeth in us
But the cure's more dangerous than the venom is
So we leave it in and do those things that make us forget that we're dying here
Oh but we're dying here
So love the blood while you can
Let it warm your freezing hands
I'm a dog less master
I'm a masterless dog
And when the whip and the tether are put aside forever
I'm and ox that wanders into the swamp
I'm a rattlesnake across a braided rope
I'm the demon on your side of the chalk
If they caught them girls who started them fires
Yeah they'll track me down in the fog
Come bail me out of the state I'm in
The drinks I've had are no match for the truth
The crowd down here put its teeth in us
But the cure's more dangerous than the venom is
So we leave it in and do those things that make us forget
That we're dying here
Oh but we're dying here
So love the blood while you can
Let it warm your freezing hands
You put a hex on me woman
You're a thinner (x2)
And these are nuclear winters
Atomic black winters
I've kept the fire alive because I'm a sinner
I'm a sinner
Come here and let me boil your blood
I'm a train as long as the track
I am concurrently outbound and just now getting back
They struck me up by a rope as tall as the trees
Though I land on my own two feet I still sway in the breeze
Yeah I'm a mirage
I'm a beam of old light from a vanquished star and I'll only guide you into the dark
I'm a parasite with a tapeworm
Yeah I got a bulletproof vest
Knowing my bad luck I ain't ever gonna die so the good will never get any rest
Come bail me out of the state I'm in
The drinks I've had are no match for the truth
The crowd down here put its teeth in us
But the cure's more dangerous than the venom is
So we leave it in and do those things that make us forget that we're dying here
Oh but we're dying here

All Structures Are Unstable
All of a sudden you're dead
The ground cracks and takes you in
You've no time to be born again
There was nothing where something had been
But every grave that blooms is anchored in miles of roots
In the seed is the tree
In the flesh is the feast
There were worms in the hearts that you hoard
They devour their way to the soul and the world is weakened from within
A hole opens up and you're dead
When I was pregnant I burned a witch alive
At a hundred and one years old I gave birth to a cloud of smoke
We are part of a great machine that inefficiently cycles grief
In the beginning it puts the end and every cause is after effect
There were worms in the hearts that you hoard
They devour their way to the soul and the world is weakened from within
A hole opens up and you're dead
There's too much poison in our glass to make a toast to our health
The cave that I built a kingdom on won't carry my weight
The past is clearer than it's ever been
Our mistakes made our selves
Blood rushes out of our phantom limbs
We take on the water we're floating in but I'll never be clean
The ground cracks and takes you in
You've no time to be born again
There was nothing where something had been
But every grave that blooms is anchored in miles of roots
In the seed is the tree
In the flesh is the feast
There were worms in the hearts that you hoard
They devour their way to the soul and the world is weakened from within
A hole opens up and you're dead
When I was pregnant I burned a witch alive
At a hundred and one years old I gave birth to a cloud of smoke
We are part of a great machine that inefficiently cycles grief
In the beginning it puts the end and every cause is after effect
There were worms in the hearts that you hoard
They devour their way to the soul and the world is weakened from within
A hole opens up and you're dead
There's too much poison in our glass to make a toast to our health
The cave that I built a kingdom on won't carry my weight
The past is clearer than it's ever been

We take on the water we're floating in but I'll never be clean

El Dorado
You were alone when you came in
You'll be alone when you leave again
And in the middle there's nothing that can keep you around when it's time to go home
Because everybody I lean on (since I don't trust myself)
Leans on someone else
Watch the colonies collapse like dominos
I could beg and I could plead but all I hear is the echo of my own voice begging me
The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic wasteland
The fossils of the teen age are well preserved
I crawled on hands and knees just to be there with you and you moved on without me
Scrap the crown
Clean the slate
Cut off your roots
You're own your own
Scrap the crown
Clean the slate
Cut off your roots
You're own your own
We all need something
I'm a gypsy queen without a swarm and the burning bridges keep me warm
I'm a new wave in a dried up stream
I'm just trying to find my way out to the sea
You were alone when you came in
You'll be alone when you leave again
And in the middle there's nothing that can keep you around when it's time to go home
Because everybody I lean on (since I don't trust myself)
Leans on someone else
Watch the colonies collapse like dominos
I could beg and I could plead but all I hear is the echo of my own voice begging me
The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic wasteland
The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic waste
Crush your allies
You'll be alone when you leave again
And in the middle there's nothing that can keep you around when it's time to go home
Because everybody I lean on (since I don't trust myself)
Leans on someone else
Watch the colonies collapse like dominos
I could beg and I could plead but all I hear is the echo of my own voice begging me
The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic wasteland
The fossils of the teen age are well preserved
I crawled on hands and knees just to be there with you and you moved on without me
Scrap the crown
Clean the slate
Cut off your roots
You're own your own
Scrap the crown
Clean the slate
Cut off your roots
You're own your own
We all need something
I'm a gypsy queen without a swarm and the burning bridges keep me warm
I'm a new wave in a dried up stream
I'm just trying to find my way out to the sea
You were alone when you came in
You'll be alone when you leave again

Idiot
From my skin I emit flashing lights
In my eyes all you find are flashing lights
From my mouth every sound a warning bell
Fill the room
Kill the mood and overwhelm
Break up the crowd
Suck the life out
Break up the crowd
Suck the life out
Paralyzed until the flesh crawls right off my bones
I can't push words past the knot in my throat
Water stands where once water could flow
This is not my familiar broken home
Hide your drugs
Fix your shirt
Turn it down
I botched the lines
Tongue is tied
Get me out
Scatterbrained
It can't be fixed
Nothing fits
Out of film
Out of room
Full eclipse
Break up the crowd
Suck the life out
Break up the crowd
Suck the life out
The edges are made out of stone
I built a maze I cannot get out of
The edges are made out of stone
This labyrinth I have trapped myself in
Throw me a rope (x3)
I'm trapped in a wreck under myself
Pinned to an old soul while everyone I love stays forever young
The roads are blocked
The petals closed
They're on to me
The song is too loud
I cannot dance
They're on to me
The air, it weighs a ton (x2)
All I want is for everyone to go to hell
It's the last place I was seen before I lost myself
All I want is for everyone to come to hell
There we can be free an learn to love ourselves
In my eyes all you find are flashing lights
From my mouth every sound a warning bell
Fill the room
Kill the mood and overwhelm
Break up the crowd
Suck the life out
Break up the crowd
Suck the life out
Paralyzed until the flesh crawls right off my bones
I can't push words past the knot in my throat
Water stands where once water could flow
This is not my familiar broken home
Hide your drugs
Fix your shirt
Turn it down
I botched the lines
Tongue is tied
Get me out
Scatterbrained
It can't be fixed
Nothing fits
Out of film
Out of room
Full eclipse
Break up the crowd
Suck the life out
Break up the crowd
Suck the life out
The edges are made out of stone
I built a maze I cannot get out of
The edges are made out of stone
This labyrinth I have trapped myself in
Throw me a rope (x3)
I'm trapped in a wreck under myself
Pinned to an old soul while everyone I love stays forever young
The roads are blocked
The petals closed

The song is too loud

They're on to me
The air, it weighs a ton (x2)
All I want is for everyone to go to hell
It's the last place I was seen before I lost myself
All I want is for everyone to come to hell
There we can be free an learn to love ourselves
