1.The Grey Ship
When you see that ship
It is the ship you can't see
When the grey ship calls
It is calling for me
I thought it would come from
I thought it would come from further North than that
Blue sky is silver blue
Sky is grey when the grey ship calls
I am leaving today
I thought it would come
I thought it would come
When you see that ship
It is the ship you can't see
I, I felt that it calling
Is it calling for me?
I thought it would come from
I thought it would come from
I thought it would come from further North than that
My mother with soft hands
My sister, my brother
My best friend from long time
(?)
These strangers with (?)
(?)
I feel all them calling
I surf now on air
I hear all them calling
And I surf on air
We've all gone together
We've all gone to sea
I hear them calling
I hear a symphony
I hear them calling
I hear all them calling (?)
We've all gone together
We've all gone to sea
I hear it calling
I hear a symphony
My great-great-grandmother lived on a prairie
Nothing and nothing and nothing and nothing
I got the same feeling inside of me
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
2.California
F*ck California, you made me boring
I've bled all my blood out
But these red pants they don't show that
My old friends though they know that
But when I sold them I sold that
I'm sorry Gracie Grewie Golden...
I'm sorry Steven and Andrew that I ever left you
You never seen the ocean, you never been on a plane
Schizophrenic rules the brain
And it's coming to take you away
You're still my favorite past life martyred saint
Give me the places, I'll give you the names
Wasted away alone on the planes
What's it like to be small time and gay?
F*ck it baby, I know you'll never change
So hold me down
But I got in
Quick hit to the face
Soft blow to the mouth
On Christmas morning
You're bleeding from the fingertips
You rubbed me raw, you rubbed me wrong
And I hear you and I think of you
Oh California
Now you've corrupted us all with your sexuality
Tried to tell me love was free
Tried to tell me love was free
I said them? Maybe you you you you you and me
Oh love in the time of scandal
Love in the form of tragedy
Love so much, so real, so f*cked
It's 51-50
But I'm just 22,
I'm just 22,
I don't mind dying
I don't mind dying
I don't mind
What does failure taste like?
To me it tastes like dirt
I'm begging you please to look away
3.Anteroom
I am in the room
I am in the anteroom
I can sense a ghost in the machine
No one has to shriek and
No one has to worry now
I will get exactly what is coming for me
Take it at once and I'll be fine
You know me, I'll be fine
You said he was a fat
But you know he was a pretty man
Don't you know they all look pretty to me?
Reach your finger outer
Touch you while it's cold
No one left to see and no one left to hold
Take it at once, I'll be fine
You know me, I'll be fine
If this time through
We don't get it right
I'll come back to you
In another life
I'll come back to you
In another life
4.Milkman
I am in the room
I am in the anteroom
I can sense a ghost in the machine
No one has to shriek and
No one has to worry now
I will get exactly what is coming for me
Take it at once and I'll be fine
You know me, I'll be fine
You said he was a fat
But you know he was a pretty man
Don't you know they all look pretty to me?
Reach your finger outer
Touch you while it's cold
No one left to see and no one left to hold
Take it at once, I'll be fine
You know me, I'll be fine
If this time through
We don't get it right
I'll come back to you
In another life
I'll come back to you
In another life
5.Coda
They say wrong turns to right
But I'm gonna give him all I've got
When you showed up at that spot
I almost threw up on the spot
I wish I had another hope to get out
These drugs, they are making me so sad
And I, I can't stop taking them in
This night, it is making me so sad
That made me want to throw up on the spot
My arms...
(?) just words and emptiness
6.Marked
A boy, a beautiful, beautiful boy,
Eyes of green, eyes of green
Mouth like the sun
Eyes of green
Eyes of green
Mouth burn like sun
Like a red star
Like a red star
But his eyes were green
Got a strange fascination
I've been holding on the one
For that strange revelation
I've been holding on to love
But I'm sick of waiting
'Round this bird house
Enough flesh wounds to make a kill
I know nothing lasts forever
If you won't love me, someone will
Like a red star
Like a red star
Like a red star
Like a blue scar
7.Breakfast
My arms, they are a see-through plastic
Arms are a secret bloodless skinless mess
My arms, they are a see-through plastic
They are bloodless plastic, skinless plastic
My arms, they are a see-through plastic
They are plastic
Don't you know that I will never bring
You're such a petty dream
I know I wish sometimes just so I could explain things, explain
things
I wish that every time he touched me left a mark
I wish that every time he touched me left a mark
I wish that every time he touched me left a mark
I wish that every time he touched me left a mark
I fell down in the dark
Won't you start again from way back
I almost threw up on the spot
When you showed up in that spot
I almost threw up on the spot
I want just to get out, get out
I wish I had another hope to get out
These drugs they are making me so sad
I can't stop, wanna take him with me
This night is making me so sad
If there was a way to get it out, I wanna get it out
If there was a way to get it out, I wanna get it out
8.Butterfly Knife
I can't stop, I won't stop
I can't stop, I won't stop
I can't stop
Mama's in the bedroom, don't you stop
Mama's in the bedroom, don't you stop
Mama's in the bedroom, don't you stop
Mama's in the bedroom, don't you... stop
Mama's in the bedroom, don't you stop
Mama's in the bedroom, don't you stop
Mama's in the bedroom, don't you stop
Mama's in the bedroom, don't you... stop
A little picture and a piece of cloth
You can't be there when it comes right off
A little picture and a piece of cloth
You can't be there when it comes right off
Big fat breakfast
Big fat bluebird
Big fat breakfast
Big fat bluebird
You feel just like a breeze to me
(You feel)
Just like a breeze to me
(You feel)
Just like a breeze to me
(You feel)
Just like a breeze to me
Just like a breeze to me
Just like a breeze to me
Just like a breeze to me
9.Red Star
A boy, a beautiful, beautiful boy,
Eyes of green, eyes of green
Mouth like the sun
Eyes of green
Eyes of green
Mouth burn like sun
Like a red star
Like a red star
But his eyes were green
Got a strange fascination
I've been holding on the one
For that strange revelation
I've been holding on to love
But I'm sick of waiting
'Round this bird house
Enough flesh wounds to make a kill
I know nothing lasts forever
If you won't love me, someone will
Like a red star
Like a red star
Like a red star
Like a blue scar
