1.How Are You

How are you
How are you
How are you
How are you

Had a dream i could turn back time
Had to stop to rewind my memory
Had a vision of the ruby sky we were riding high
On our own pink elephant
Another day in this fucked up life
Another struggle just to get through nine to five
Maybe it was only ego talking
But i always thought we were innocent

How are you
How are you

Had the answer on my fingertips
'til i lost it in the wind like a friend i'll never find
Deep in the belly is a love so thick
And i thought i had it but makes me sick now
I'm imagining the fields so green
But i would settle for the the truth in anything
Where i'm floating i can't feel my skin
But i might get home
Hey, i might get back again

How are you
How are you
How are you
How are you
How are you
How are you

Had a dream i could turn back time
Had to stop to rewind my memory
Had a vision of the ruby sky we were riding high
On our own pink elephant
Another day in this fucked up life
Another struggle just to get through nine to five
Where i'm floating i can't feel my skin
But i might get home
I might get back again

How are you
How are you
How are you
How are you
How are you
How are you


2.Too Close To The Sun

High above your atmosphere
Do they all still cheer for who they think we are
And once more past the sun again
Feelings sinking in i think we've gone to far

And why did you fly did you burn
Can't you learn from my mistakes
I have made them so i know

Bored just one more cup of tea
All the stars and me they'll teach me how to shine
'cause life it's so much colder here
I'll absorb your fears and bury them inside

And why did you fly did you burn
Can't you learn from my mistakes
I have made them so i know

You're too close to the sun
You're too close to the sun
You're too close to the sun
You're too close to the sun
You're too close to the sun

Things we found so lovely
Turn so ugly
I've grown nakeder day by day
It's quite disarming i find it alarming
When everybody's listening

Why did you fly did you burn
Can't you learn from what weve learned
I can't see you anymore

You're too close to the sun
You're too close to the sun
You're too close to the sun
You're too close to the sun
You're too close to the sun


3.Black Black Heart

Something ugly this way comes
Through my fingers sliding inside
All these blessings all these burns
I'm godless underneath your cover
Search for pleasure search for pain
In this world now i am undying
I unfurl my flag my nation helpless

Black black heart why would you offer more
Why would you make it easier on me to satisfy
I'm on fire i'm rotting to the core
I'm eating all your kings and queens
All your sex and your diamonds

As i begin to lose my grip
On these realities your sending
Taste your mind and taste your sex
I'm naked underneath your cover
Covers lie and we will bend and borrow
With the coming sign
The tide will take the sea will rise and time will rape

Black black heart why would you offer more
Why would you make it easier on me to satisfy
I'm on fire i'm rotting to the core
I'm eating all your kings and queens
All your sex and your diamonds

Black black heart why would you offer more
Why would you make it easier on me to satisfy
I'm on fire i'm rotting to the core
I'm eating all your kings and queens
All your sex and your diamonds
All your sex and your diamonds
All your sex and your diamonds
All your sex and your diamonds
All your sex and your diamonds


4.Alone In The Universe

Jamie's on the bathroom floor she don't know why
She's shaking underneath the sink can't feel a thing
She'd love to live a life she's afraid of failure
With all the voices in her head
Now what was that i thought i hear you scream

I know you can feel it
You're already there
Asleep underwater
Just screaming for air
I know you can feel it
You're already...
Don't you know we're freaks and creature
Wake up i can almost see the light

I think we're alone here you and i
I think we're alone left wondering why
I think we're alone here you and i
I think we're alone in the universe tonight

Alex on the last train home from god knows where
A million miles away from where he thought he'd be
He's got his suit his tie his drink his mtv
He's trading all his life away
You can't escape we're all infected now

I know you can feel it
You're already there
Asleep underwater
Just screaming for air
I know you can feel it
You're already...
Don't you know we're freaks and creatures
Wake up i can almost see the light

I think we're alone here you and i
I think we're alone in the universe tonight

We're all infected now
I know you can feel it
You're already there
Asleep underwater
Just screaming for air
I know you can feel it
You're already...
Don't you know we're freaks and creatures
Wake up i can almost see the light

I think we're alone here you and i
I think we're alone left wondering why
I think we're alone here you and i
I think we're alone in the universe tonight

I think we're alone in the universe tonight
I think we're alone in the universe tonight


5.Butterfly

You came apart on me last sunday morning
Chocked and indicted by the truth
And it's always tough when there's never enough
Of the good things coming
And there was never enough for you
There was never enough for you

Butterfly
Where you gone
I can't see you anymore
My eyes are taken still too high
Came down naked on you
Butterfly
Where you gone
I can't feel you anymore
I can't feel you anymore

Got excited when i thought that we would last
Twisted inside out 'til we were drowning
From the first attack we could never go back so we just keep on
coming
But i was never enough for you
Was there ever enough for you

Butterfly
Where you gone
I can't feel you anymore
My eyes are taken still too high
Came down naked on you
Butterfly
Where you gone
I can't feel you anymore
I can't feel you anymore

And if you think you're dying
Baby well you know i felt the same
'cause we were only hoping
Why's it always feel like, feel like
It feels like rain

Butterfly
Where you gone
I can't see you anymore
My eyes are taken still too high
Came down naked on you
Butterfly
Where you gone
I can't feel you anymore
I can't feel you anymore
I can't feel you anymore
I can't feel you anymore


6.Joy In Small Places

Well i woke up last night in a technology haze
My eyes were all sparked
From this common malaise
So i found me a doctor who said he'd even me out
Take my highs and my lows
'cause the colours were just to loud
And as the day becomes night
And we only want greys
And the innocence runs out
Well this is the price to pay

Mr. jangle what you gonna do when the sun breaks down and the
rain pours through
Tell me baby, what you gonna do this time
Mr. jangle what you gonna do when the sun breaks down and the
rain pours through
Tell me baby, what you gonna do this time
This time, what you gonna do this time
What you gonna do, gonna do

You got caught on my teeth so i spit out my tongue
And i cut off these hands just to see if the feeling would come
And we drank 'til we drowned 'til we chocked on the world
And we bathed in the beauty of all of you

Mr. jangle what you gonna do when the sun breaks down and the
rain pours through
Tell me baby, what you gonna do this time
Mr. jangle what you gonna do when the sun breaks down and the
rain pours through
Tell me baby, what you gonna do this time
This time, what you gonna do this time
What you gonna do, gonna do
Can't can't can't wait 'til tomorrow comes

(hold on)

Well i woke up last night just outside of myself
Skin hair bone broke down cell by single cell
And i could not believe i had died in my sleep
Just drowned in the beauty of all of you

Mr. jangle what you gonna do when the sun breaks down and the
rain pours through
Tell me baby, what you gonna do this time
Mr. jangle what you gonna do when the sun breaks down and the
rain pours through
Tell me baby, what you gonna do this time
This time, what you gonna do this time
What you gonna do, gonna do
Can't can't can't wait 'til tomorrow comes

Because there's joy in small places
Can't wait 'til tomorrow comes
Can't wait 'til tomorrow comes
It comes in small places...


7.A Day In The Life

Did you feel small today when everyone had gone
'cause i was beaten up and jaded by the news
And underneath the skin the truth is breaking through
So they just sewed me up and spit me out
And i can't change it
I can't change this

You you take away the world
And i don't even know myself now
So how can i know you
And i don't want to die
And i don't want to leave this place yet
Just give me one more try

My thoughts are floating as reality explodes
I'm whispering to each of you my friends
And every moment seems to freeze frame through the room
All the colors are electrified
But i can't see now
I can't see now

You you take away the world
And i don't even know myself now
So how can i know you
And i don't want to die
And i don't want to leave this place yet
Just give me one more try

And i'm drifting through myself again
Tell me how i got so high
Where the conscience bends the air is thin
And i can't change it
I can't change this

You you take away the world
And i don't even know myself now
So how can i know you
And i don't want to die
And i don't want to leave this place yet
Just give me one more try
And i don't want to die
And i don't want to leave this place yet
Just give me one more try

One more try, yeah
Just give me one more try
One more try, yeah
Just give me one more try


8.My Way Out

Standing at the edge
The edge of it all
Spitting off the top
Watch the day unfurl
Cannot see the view from this place
Clouds are on the rise world is out of faith
Took another pill to find my way
Hope that you'll be there

'cause this is my way out of it tonight
And this is my last chance to ease the fire
And this is my way out of it tonight
How about you
How about you

Borrowed from a dream
That i use to know
All my friends were there
We watched the world explode
Took another drink to find my way
Just hope that you'll be there

'cause this is my way out of it tonight
And this is my last chance to ease the fire
This is my way out of it tonight
I might find one way to get through
How about you
How about you
How about you

And if i could remember
If i could find a place a time the space to see another way home
And if i could forget you
Maybe there's no other way out
No other way out

Standing at the edge (how about you)
The edge of it all (how about you)

(how about you)
(how about you)

Standing at the edge (how about you)
The edge of it all (how about you)

(how about you)
(how about you)

'cause this is my way out of it tonight
And this is my last chance to ease the fire
And this is my way out of it tonight
I think there's one way to get through
How about you

'cause this is my way out of it tonight
And this is my last chance to ease the fire
And this is my way out of it tonight
I might find one way to get through
How about you
'cause this is my way out of it tonight
And this is my last chance to ease the fire
And this is my way out of it tonight
I might find one way to get through
How about you
How about you
How about you


9.Blinded

Turn me out then turn me on
Pretty flower can you tell me what's become of who we are
Only asking what you'd like tonight
Well take america
Just shake my tits and ass yeah we'll go far

And if we wanted more
Then that was only what we thought our right was
Only wanted more but we were always blinded
Here we want to try
But i can't try to be as plain as daylight
Looking to the world
But we were always blinded

Sell a little bit to you
A circus sideshow but the makeup's shining through it's not so
bad
Is there anyone to know
Forget my politics just sex me 'til i'm done it's not so hard

And if we wanted more
Then that was only what we thought our right was
Only wanted more but we were always blinded
Here we want to try
But i can try to be as plain as daylight
Looking to the world
But we were always blinded

And all the stars are out for you
And everybody's hiding here
And all the stars have come unglued
But everybody everybody's changing
We're changing
We're changing

And if we wanted more
Then that was only what we thought our right was
Only wanted more but we were always blinded
Here we want to try
But i can't try to be as plain as daylight
Looking to the world
But we were always blinded
Always blinded

And all the stars are out for you
And everybody's hiding here
And all the stars have come unglued
But everybody everybody's changing
We're changing
We're changing
We're changing

Thank you


10.Fast Car

You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we can make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me myself i got nothing to prove

You got a fast car
I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won't have to drive too far
Just across the border and into the city
You and i could both get jobs
Finally see what it means to be living

See my old man's got a problem
Lives with a bottle that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
Body's too young for looking like his
Mama went off and left him
Wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
I quit school that's what i did
What i did, what i did

You got a fast car
Is it fast enough that we can fly away
We gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way

So remember when we're driving, driving in your car
The speed so fast felt like i was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And i had a feeling that i belonged
And i had a feeling i could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
We go cruising, entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And i work in a market in the checkout line
I know things will get better
You'll find work and i'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter
Buy a big house and live in the suburbs

So remember when we're driving, driving in your car
The speed so fast felt like i was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And i had a feeling that i belonged
And i had a feeling i could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
I got a job pays all our bills
Stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought we'd together you and me would find it
I got no plans i ain't going nowhere
Take your fast car and keep on driving

You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so you can fly away
You gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way

So remember when we're driving, driving in your car
The speed so fast felt like i was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And i had a feeling that i belonged
And i had a feeling i could be someone, be someone, be someone


11.Closer

You had to lose
A funny thing the part we can't play
I'd love to offer you with all the blame
But now we have to choose
Another round for all my friends and me
Another poke at sensibility
We've found out

Why are we floundering
I'm drowning in the reveler's sin
I've taken you up on your offerings
I don't even know it's good bye

You had to lose
Always knew that we weren't quite the same
I blew it up with everyone who ever knew me
Had to change
A revidescent light to shine the way
And we're not always following the same way out now

Why are we floundering
I'm drowning in the reveler's sin
I've taken you up on your offerings
I don't even know it's good bye
Goodbye
