Wasted Eyes
03:28
|
|||
two timers gone again
and are you planning on running?
the wedding band is grey
and it's haunted
ive got a story i
wasn't planning on telling
the way i remember that day
ive almost forgotten
wasted eyes seethe through the lair
laughing while you're combing your hair
i was a child when they left us there
and lost were the idols of montpelier
twice im reborn and yet
you come back empty handed

Ride or Die
04:05
|
|||
it's like
striking matches in the moonlight
but is it always right?
dime a dozen a dozen times
one blow
makes your wrists white
while not worth your while or sacrifice
the lines are laid outright
ride or die
ride or die
ride or go
hold on
to your hopes before they're gone
recollect respawn
kill the king and play the pawn
and this diamond death
oh release it
let it turn with other lovely burning
wishes that you must forget
ride or die
ride or die
ride or go
ride or die
ride or die
ride or go
ride or die
ride or go
ride or die
ride or go

wait till one day after all
the piggies hit the halls
with gretchen's gown and cathy's curls
the biggest at the ball
and around
all heads are down
lets cut them off
do do do do do do do do
if you're down
do do do do do do do do
oh calamity!
and caroline it's fine i said it is
i know you like those sedatives but
please refrain next time
and caroline it's fine i said it is
i just wanna have one good night
do do do do do do do do
luh duh di hi (lol?)
do do do do do do do do
and we sweep along the deep side
you and i reel, an honest feeling
lingering inside
oh calamity!
and caroline it's fine i said it is
i know you like those sedatives but
please refrain next time
and caroline it's fine i said it is
i just wanna have one good night

Diamond
03:13
|

if i had the diamond in
the big old country
would you get the hammer and
attach it to me?
admittedly i've
been trying to stay clean
i'm opening wide
is it enough to see?
so while you get your gold ties and ribbons
i'll be down the stairs
making marks on all of the gravestones
of the bad men who have laid there
and admittedly i've
been trying to stay clean
i'm opening wide
is it enough to see?

Harvey

harvey's got a baby now
and still he goes
back and forth through my head
somehow
and i wonder
if he's happy
and when he's alone
does he ever think about me?
harvey waters, cry for me
in my dreams
they go two ways
either i'm young or
i'm dying on my wedding day
and just before
i fall to the floor
at the end of the altar
you are stood in the door
harvey waters, cry for me
harvey gets up and leaves
and these days there's no use in trying
with my head, i thought i was wrong
tell me please are they lying
cuz in my dreams everything is true
down to the bones in my body
and babe
i hope you too

Elaine (bonus track)

i went walking through the yard
never really got this far
in my mind it's big and wide
longing for the countryside
a field full of fireflies
that was then and this is now
missing my simple small town
and yes this is a magic place
but sometimes i wanna settle down
instead of running the rat race
oh when i go to sleep
i dream about the day my mother said to me
wherever you find your feet
in troubled times take a second think of me
your darkest hour is never as dark as it seems
elaine, i hope you saved
the photos of me crying at the tree
outside, our eastern escape
i miss it now more everyday
and i miss you too
i hope you're okay
elaine
