Hollow

Once more you close the door
and walk into the snow
is it so inviting
to watch the ancient forces flow
that you would forsake this
pure love I built for you
now just a house up on the shelf
with the other broken hobbies
Forever in the grips of what’s to come,
losing our taste for morning sun
Threw away our faith because we’re um
A little foolish, that we fell for the hollow dream
wait for the sign to call before you drop the bomb
scratching your head all these years
just to blow it all to bits so
Light yourself a cigarette
And drink until you’re dead
Do you see an angel overhead
Or just another shy regret
One light
One fate
One storm
A shadow on the backstage wall
One shape
One night
One skin
A figure in the howling wind
One chance
One scene
One call
Forever wishing this was it
Many times I have seen, but always find just another hollow dream
all of the time we shared
Is it all forgone?
Why is it so surprising
you know an end must come

Minnows

Wont you tell me little ghost
why you're crying
are the bullies of your old town haunting
are you seeing faces in the trees again
well if you've and need for worry
wont you come a long with me
as I lift off and sail among the clouds
Then the world starts spinning
round and round and round
Maybe you should fold the truth
put it in your pocket for a while
cos anything you might say
could burn a hole in my wings and
I'd fall down
Take a moment by the pond
as the seasons change
watch the minnows swimming up and jumping out
onto the bank
I wonder what the hell they're thinking
the want to see beyond, the surface of their underwater town.
then the world starts sinking
down down down
maybe you should stow the truth
bury it in the ground
anything you might say
could blow a hole in our boat
and we'll drown

Gone

One night a violent fury
came to tear the world asunder
and in the hearts of the faithless
was a burning like a hole
that we tried to fill up with
the bodies of all the people we know
All the lights that lead the way
umm ya ya hey ya ya hey
All the words words we'll never say
ya ya hey oh yaaa ya hey
The cards are on the table
the water is heating up
soon enough we'll have to face
ourselves and all we have done to the mother
All the lies we told to get over
all the window's we have broken
now the draws wont close
with all the evidence
we've been trying to stuff in with bottles and condoms and gasoline tanks
I will wait for you to come
out from the city of dead and gone
As the doorway opens up,
reveal a beuty brighter than any of earth

In Love Again[explicit]
04:04
|
|||
When the light burst to life
began to glow so bright it'd burn my lil' heart out
stop stop now
said a voice spinning round -
within, the cracks appearing
on the road, in my head.
but it's
too late
to draw the line between us its -
inevitable
nothing can keep
the thought, breaking through
the danger signs
oh a cliff
Fuck, I think I'm in love again, not again
It's been going on so long
It's taken it's tole,
down in my half lit brain
One day I know
I'll make it back to nowhere
One night I thought I saw the angels,
flying over high above the moon so full
the fairy god on my shoulder
Yells Hey Dude
you're having fantasies again
and you know what that means
It's time, to go
before you get sucked in a hole
And you cant get out again
until the next one
comes around
oh Saves you from your thoughts
about the end, oh
God, I think I'm in love again, what a hit
It's so glorious,
It's been so long
since I've seen the sun
but it's nice to see the moon rising up above you

Sit down in that chair and keep you back straight
listen to the words I'm telling you
you gotta learn to bend
to the will of the machine
so forget all your sentimental wishes for
a future you can choose
the clocks already stopped and you're on your way
a highway to the grave
---
Trace back to those glorious times
when all our visions were unwinding
wake up in the mud, vicious
claws deep in our thighs
---
Oh what takes our time away
is all of these pages on our desk that turn our faces grey
and though we've seen
so many places I can't remember my old dream
Stare at the ceiling wondering
how long it takes for you to come
---
Quit you sinning and officious questioning
stay within the lines I set
fail to cooperate I'll see you burn
down at the bottom of the sea
---
hold on to a glimmering shard
of hope, hide it underneath your coat
when time is nigh you'll know just when
thrust it deep into the heart.
---
Oh what takes our time away
is all the saints that aint ever gonna lead the way
on the dirty streets
all the people lining up to watch the monster breathe
I fade into the crowd
and wonder what it takes for us to
wake up

Silhouette
05:47
|

One look at you
The vision of a palace seems to fade
plans all turning to wishes the day
the day you come wandering
I can tell by the way you dress
and the colours in your hair
you’ve no love for authority
or what anybody else thinks
but I can’t help but fall in
A fly in a web, to be devoured
but you won’t even drink my blood
Hell, I don’t blame you.
I hate your light
more when I’m enshrouded
even when I’m cold
But not before I’m found
I love your dark
more than my courage
your silhouette is
figure to my ground
Come, don’t be paranoid
There’s a reason for this dripping from the faucet
Turn me around, or Dry me out
If that’s how it’s to be , I’ll spill happily
Out on the ground, just laugh as I fall and seep
down down into the ground
It’s time I learned my lesson in turn
If you play with fire you’re gonna get your shit
Oh, oh, oh
(Chorus)

Meloncholia
05:18
|
|||
Eyes wide open so so late
fading into rust
like a ship washed up on shore
awaiting oblivion
Hide among desire's whim,
bathe in it's caress,
stealing bottles of the potion
Guzzle it all
cast out the gods
into the street like dogs
now dead as the grass and air we breathe
---
lying in a flower bed
as it turns to dusk
hoping that these thoughts will clear
and float out
Fly around the city at night,
a million candles burning,
like the ghosts of time splayed out
on the ground
Where are they all from?
look up and see the
answer blaring down subtle and sound
## Uplift
(1/2)Oh one maybe is just enough,
(1) to send my head reeling on a whirlwind of
all the things I could have said but didn't have the guts
now my head is broken, I'm getting old and tired
(2) to send my heart sailing on a spirit lust
and although I may have my doubts,
that wont keep me getting to where we cast off
## Crunch
(1) Farewell fun, meloncholia, welcome new bold melody
one by one, mountains crumble, and flow into the ocean
(2) Welcome love, meloncholia, farewell old dead memory
after all the rust is done we'll sail into the ocean
(3) meloncholia come join our harmony
all at once, we all break our bonds and float like dust in the wind
