Covered in honey,
Showered in beer,
Now when you spin on your head like a monkey
I won't see you.
Sing a bad love song loud in my ear,
So when you spin on your head like a monkey,
I won't hear you.
I tame a bird to light where you live,
Light on your arm and bring a wild gift.
I am my mother's child.
I let my fears run wild.
Showered in honey,
Showered in beer,


Now when you spin on your head like a monkey
I won't see you.
I tame a bird to light where you live,
Light on your arm and bring a wild gift.
I send a light to shine on you.
I send a light to shine around you.
I send a light to blind you.
I am the light that shines on your eyes.
I am the light that blinds.
I tame a bird to light where you live,
Light on your arm and bring a wild gift.
I tame a bird to light where you live,
Light on your arm and bring a wild gift.

Untame my brain.
Give me a name.
Hear my faith.
Seal my fate.
Unholy and dirty words I gathered to me,
Thinking the point was keep what's mine for me,
While he's laughing.
Hear my faith.
Seal my fate.
And when you breathe, you breathe for two.
And if you think you've finally found the perfect light,
I hope it's true.
Unholy and dirty words I gathered to me,
Thinking the point was keep what's mine for me,


While he's laughing.
On every track I fractured every back,
Thinking the point was step on every crack,
And he's laughing.
Hear my faith.
Seal my fate.
And when you breathe, you breathe for two.
And if you think you've finally found the perfect light,
I hope it's true.
You say you saw him laughing.
I hope it's true.
I'd like to see it happen. I hope it's true
'cause I can feel it.
I hope it's true.

Red, you look tired.
You look older than your mother.
Where should I not touch?
What should I not kiss?
Where does it hurt?
Red, in you slumber,
You look younger, so much stronger.
Honey on your breath,
Heaven in your head.
Where does it hurt?
Red red red, oh.
So long in this house.
It's a big one, full of scarecrows, even now.


So now you look ahead to the edge
Of a bigh metal sun over sunset, overheated (over).
Welcome home, our only son.
Red red red, oh.
Mm mm come open mouth like venus.
Mm mm come over (the) mountain like vesuvius.
Send a rocket for red, and he goes coo-coo.
Mm mm come open mouth like venus.
Mm mm come over (the) mountain like vesuvius.
Send a rocket for red, and he goes coo-coo.
Send a rocket for red, and he goes coo-coo.
Red red red, oh.

Will I be the stranger in your movie
Is there a place for me
in the patterns that glow on your skin and your clothes

Hold him
Hold his thin frame in your arms
When everything flows from his skin and his clothes

I'm flying so over it
Silverfish line his pocket
Silver quick he leaves
(I don't want to know about your ill-fated love affair)

Flying so over it
Flying so over your head

Hold him in your arms
when everything glows on his skin
I've been much stranger
I've watched you from afar
Now everything shows on my skin and my clothes

I'm flying so over it
Silverfish line his pocket
Silver quick he leaves
(I don't want to hear about your poorly-timed rock career)

Flying so over it
Flying so over your head

Silverfish line his pocket
Silver quick he leaves
Silverfish line his pocket
Silver quick he leaves
(I don't want to hear about your poorly-timed rock career)

Flying so over it
Flying so over your head

. . .


On your third broken window,
Your hair full of glass,
Throw your clothes in the hallway,
Just a sheet on your back.
So you're super-connected now?
All the freaks gather around,
And the crowd in your bedroom waits
For a piece of your personal stash.
Are there heart strings connected
To the wings you've got slapped on your back?
Better climb in the window cause I'm closing the door.
On your third broken window,
With your hair full of glass,
Saw your clothes in the hallway,
Just a curtain on your back.
I laugh.
Are there heart strings connected
To the wings you've got slapped on your back?
Better climb in the window cause I'm closing the door.
Now I'm spinning on a dime.
Now I'm spinning on a dime.
Now I'm spinning on a dime.
Like you claim to do,
Like now, like now.
Are there heart strings connected
To the poison coming out of your mouth?
Are you super-connected?
Are you super-connected now?
I'm spinning on a dime.
Throw your clothes in the hallway,
And I'm closing the door.

. . .


My blessed son, you...
You've got a lot to learn.
So I'm your best friend,
You love me, and
Well I'll tell you something:
"we're on the road to messy."
Now the bees behind my eyes sing "beware,"
But my bee-stung tongue wants in there.
Beware, beware, beware of me.
If your heart is not on my side,
If your heart is not on my side,
If your heart is not on my side,
You're not on my side anymore.


I steal a piece of your diary.
I don't think that looks like me.
Am I so cold, now that I'm older?
I tell you stories,
That doesn't mean you know me.
Now the bees behind my eyes sing, "beware,"
But my bee-stung tongue wants in there.
So come at me with mouth open wide,
And i, like a jerk, I crawl inside.
Beware, beware, beware of me.
If your heart is not on my side,
If your heart is not on my side,
If your heart is not on my side, you're not on my side anymore.

Little bird,
I won't prey on you.
I won't prey on you this time.
I'm your faith.
I'm your faithhealer.
I'm your faithless companion.
I'm the seed that made your perfect body.
When you sleep, I am awake.
There is a light under the ocean.
Under the ocean, there's things shining everywhere.
There is a lightkeeper under the blanket here.
Under the blanket, there's things shining down here.
Now I see you lay your perfect body down by me,
Now we're down.
Little bird,
I won't prey on you.
I won't prey on you this time.


I'm your faith.
I'm your faithhealer
I'm your faithless companion.
I'm the seed that made your body perfect.
When you sleep, I am awake.
There is a light under the ocean.
Under the ocean, there's things shining everywhere.
There is a lightkeeper under the blanket here.
Under the blanket, there's things shining everywhere.
You light the ocean from behind.
I'll show you mine.
I'll show you.
Baby, I can't fake it,
I'd like to see you naked.
I'd like to see you take it.
I'd like to see you naked.
Naked, naked, naked, naked.

. . .


Now I've lost the plot
I'm not the hero I could be
But not the dog I was
Kind of common cry
Kind of common living lie
Color my fast fading heart
People laugh at anything
And things just fall apart

Kind of common cry
Kind of commom living lie
You know the shape my breath will take
Before I let it out
Stand like you did
When I was beauty marked in your eyes

Now eyes burn circles in the dark
And when the mirror talks to me
I listen with my heart
Kind of commom cry
Kind of common living lie
You know the shape my breath will take
Before I let it out
Stand like you did
When I was beauty marked in your eyes
Stand like you did
When I was beauty marked in your eyes

. . .


I want you soft in the middle
I see a strange and furious face
I know your heart

I want your pearly hand in my hair
We make a strange and furious pair
I want you locked in the middle
I know your heart
I know your heart

It's just like mine was

So you wanna know why I can't sleep
You wanna know why I can't sleep
You wanna know why I can't sleep

Unless I've got a belly full of wine
You show up in time for a bad time

Mmm 'less I've got a belly full of wine
You show up and the world is wild

I want your pearly little hand in my hair
We make a strange and furious pair
I want you pearly on the inside
I know your heart
I know your heart

It's just like mine was

So you wanna know why I can't sleep at night
You wanna know why I can't sleep at night
You wanna know why I can't sleep

Unless I've got a belly full of wine
You show up in time for a bad time

Mmm, 'less I've got a belly full of wine
You show up in tails for a bad time

Mmm, 'less I've got my belly full of wine
I'm drunk and the world is wild

(You got it)
(Heaven in your hand)

You got it
You got it
Heaven in your hand

I wasn't there,
But I heard there were flowers in his hair.
Though not yet born to her,
I know there was something magic about
The way she held her own.
I know it's hard for the young ones.
I know it.
Accutely, I heard it.
Race me through this heart-broken town.
Bang yur boots and keep your head down.
Race me through the heart of this broken town.
I use the voices of sandmen
To bring you home.
I know it's wrong, you're a young one.
I know it.


Accutely, I hear it.
Race me through this heart-broken town.
Bang your boots and keep your head down.
Race me through the heart of this broken town.
So now I make you pray to god.
Now I make you pray to god.
Now I make you pray like there's a god.
I know it's hard for the young ones.
I know it.
So now I make you pray to god.
Now I make you pray to god.
Now I make you pray
Like there's a God to see it my way, yeah.
See it my way, yeah.
See it my way, yeah.

where i live
there's a blanket of gauze and it covers the scars
of the drunks who are hungry as ever
where i live
there's a blanket of sighs and it covers the stars
in my heart i'm as hungry as ever
this is the room where we met
where i live
there's a lady who walks everywhere on her hands
doen't trust where her feet want to take her
where i live
there's this lady who walks everywhere on her hands
she don't trust where her feet want to take her
(not in here)
this is the room where we met
(not in here)
this is the dress i had on
this is not the moment you fear when you wake up and no one is there

low hangs the moon, oh oh
inside this room
low hangs the moon, oh oh
inside this room
so that i'm a witness, when you
judas my heart
judas my heart
where i live
there's a blanket of sighs and it covers the stars
in my heart i'm as hungry as ever
where i live
i'm afraid that i walk everywhere on my hands
i don't trust where my feet want to take me
(not in here)
this is the room where we met
(not in here)
this is the dress i had on
this is not the moment i fear, i say, "i" 'stead of "she"
now you're here.
low hangs the moon, oh oh
inside this room
so that I'm a witness when you
judas my heart x4
can i get a witness when you judas my heart again?
can i get a witness when you do this to my heart again?
can i get a witness when you judas my heart again?
where i live,
there's a lady who walks everywhere on her hands.
just like me doesn't trust
where her feet want to take her again
and her feet want to take her again
and her feet want to take her again.
she loves me, yeah, yeah, yeah.
she loves me, yeah, yeah, yeah.
