i am alive
i am alive
i am alive
that is the best that i can do
you told me you lied
you swore you were mine
i'd take you back a thousand times
dress me like a clown
margot and the nuclear so and so's

purge
i miss you
less and less
everyday
it's true
the whiskey's helped to wash you away
and it's clear to see
you're nothing special
(you're a skeleton key)
skeleton key
margot and the nuclear so and so's

haunted by the mortal cold of the universe
"Many people experience the dying and rebirth-- which is our fate-- only this once during their entire life. Their childhood becomes hollow and gradually collapses, everything they love abandons them and they suddenly feel surrounded by the loneliness and the mortal cold of the universe. Very many are caught forever in this impasse, and for the rest of their lives cling painfully to an irrevocable past, the dream of the lost paradise-- which is the worst and most ruthless of dreams."
Demian, by Herman Hesse

letting go
(i hate that) my heartstrings
are clenched in the sweaty fists
of indifferent boys
(and they wonder) why
i keep holding out my hand
(and i wonder too)
because
there is nothing for me to grasp

breathin' fire
what if my own skin makes my skin crawl?
what if my own flesh is suburban sprawl?
what happened between us makes sense
if I'm nothing... you're all...
if I am nothing at all
you're always on my mind
you're always on my mind
you're always on my mind
you're always on my mind

hazy horizons
well summer's gonna come it's gonna cloud our eyes again
no need to focus when there's nothing that's worth seeing
an attempt to tip the scales
bright eyes

the return to solitude
I lost it all
now I know
it's so good to be alone
I had it all, I had it all
I hate to be alone
oh I hate to be alone
but I need to be alone
oh I need to be alone
the afterparty
bad books

hello february
hello february
we meet again.
yes, I do believe it's that time of the year
when I muse over my place in the universe
fret about the future
overcome hardships
and tend to my sore heartstrings
yes hello february
I do believe we could be friends
if you weren't such an asshole!
so just go away february.

facing reality
I can't talk to you
the way I've wanted to
I've been tellin' lies
but I'll tell you the truth:
darlin' I'm tired
and I should be leavin'
leavin'
as tall as cliffs
margot and the nuclear so and so's

bracing for the impact
To say the words I want to say to you would be a lie
by the time I get the courage I am drunk and you are tired
alone in this basement where I will write these songs
of things I'll never say to you again and you know why
never let myself love like that again
a crime
