Well I wish there was someone

Well I wish there was someone to love me

When I used to be someone

and I knew there was someone that loved me

as I sit here frozen alone

even ghosts get tired and go home

as they crawl back under the stones

And I wish there was something

please tell me there's something better

and I wish there was something more than this

Saturated loneliness

and I wish I could feel it

and I wish I could steal it

abduct it, corrupt it

but I never can, it's just

Saturated loneliness

Does the silence get lonely

Does the silence get lonely

Who knows?

I've been hearing it tell me

I've been hearing it tell me, "go home"

'cause the freaks are playing tonight

they packed up and turned out the lights

And I wish there was something

please tell me theres something better

and I wish there was something more than this

Saturated loneliness

and I wish I could feel it

and I wish I could steal it

abduct it, corrupt it

but I never can, it's just

saturated loneliness

and the bathwaters cold

and this life's getting old

and I wish I could feel it

and I wish I could feel it

and I wish I could steal it

abduct it, corrupt it

and I wish I could feel it

and I wish I could steal it

and I wish I could feel it

abduct it, corrupt it

but I never can,

I never can

never can

never can

never can

"Inside"

Inside the doors are sealed to love
Inside my heart is sleeping
Inside the fingers of my glove
Inside the bones of my right hand
Inside it's colder than the stars
Inside the dogs are weeping
Inside the circus of the wind
Inside the clocks are filled with sand
Inside she'll never hurt me
Inside the winter's creeping
Inside the compass of the night
Inside the folding of the land

Outside the stars are turning
Outside the world's still burning

Inside my head's a box of stars I never dared to open
Inside the wounded hide their scars, inside this lonesome sparrow's fall
Inside the songs of our defeat, they sing of treaties broken
Inside this army's in retreat, we hide beneath the thunder's call

Outside the rain keeps falling
Outside the drums are calling
Outside the flood won't wait
Outside they're hammering down the gate

Love is the child of an endless war
Love is an open wound still raw
Love is a shameless banner unfurled
Love's an explosion,
Love is the fire of the world
Love is a violent star
A tide of destruction
Love is an angry scar
A violation, a mutilation, capitulation, love is annihilation.

Inside the failures of the light, the night is wrapped around me
Inside my eyes deny their sight, you'd never find me in this place
Inside we're hidden from the moonlight, we shift between the shadows
Inside the compass of the night, inside the memory of your face

Outside the walls are shaking
Inside the dogs are waking
Outside the hurricane won't wait
Inside they're howling down the gate

Love is the child of an endless war
Love is an open wound still raw
Love is a shameless banner unfurled
Love's an explosion,
Love is the fire at the end of the world
Love is a violent star
A tide of destruction
Love is an angry scar
The pain of instruction
Love is a violation, a mutilation, capitulation,
Love is annihilation.

I climb this tower inside my head
A spiral stair above my bed
I dream the stairs don't ask me why,
I throw myself into the sky

Love me like a baby, love me like an only child
Love me like an ocean; love me like a mother mild
Love me like a father, love me like a prodigal son
Love me like a sister, love me like the world has just begun
Love me like a prodigy, love me like an idiot boy,
Love me like an innocent, love me like your favorite toy
Love me like a virgin, love me like a courtesan,
Love me like a sinner, love me like a dying man.

Annihilate me, infiltrate me, incinerate me, accelerate me, mutilate me, inundate me, violate me, implicate me, vindicate me, devastate me

Love me like a parasite, love me like a dying sun
Love me like a criminal, love me like a man on the run

Radiate me, subjugate me, incubate me, recreate me, demarcate me, educate me, punctuate me, evaluate me, conjugate me, impregnate me, designate me, humiliate me, segregate me, opiate me, calibrate me, replicate me.

5am

Friday morning

Thursday night

Far from sleep

I'm still up and driving

Can't go home

obviously

So I'll just change direction

Cause they'll soon konw where I live

And I wanna live

Got a full tank and some chips

It was me and a gun

And a man on my back

And I sang "holy holy" as he buttoned down his pants

You can laugh

It's kind of funny things you think

at times like these

Like I haven't seen Barbados

So I must get out of this

Yes I wore a slinky red thing

Does that mean I should spread

For you, your friends your father, Mr. Ed

Me and a gun

and a man

On my back

But I haven't seen Barbados

So I must get out of this

Yes I wore a slinky red thing

Does that mean I should spread

For you, your friends your father, Mr. Ed

And I know what this means

Me and Jesus a few years back

Used to hang and he said

"It's your choice babe just remember

I don't think you'll be back in 3 days time

So you choose well"

Tell me what's right

Is it my right to be on my stomach

of Fred's Seville

Me and a gun

and a man

On my back

But I haven't seen Barbados

So I must get out of this

And do you know Carolina

Where the biscuits are soft and sweet

These things go through you head

When there's a man on your back

And you're pushed flat on your stomach

It's not a classic cadillac

Me and a gun

and a man

On my back

But I haven't seen Barbados

So I must get out of this
