I loved you so
A second ago
Now I'm left with the phone
It's dead in my hand
I don't understand
Why you wanna be alone
In bed you were hot
Gave you all that I got
Never thought that you were the kind
An unfriendly ghost
So piss off and go
Baby make haste
I don't need your face
Are you a waste of my mind?
You were a waste of my mind
So you want me back
Hey Good luck with that
Nobody else took the bait
Your love is antique
Hey Citizen Freak
You're just a minute too late
So go ahead and lie
Baby straight to my eye
Let's just say that I was blind
And now I'm a ghost
That's what I love the most
And that's just a taste of my
That's just a taste of my mind
Ladies and gents
Let us start the proceedings
Only five cents
For unlimited beatings
Standing by the graveside
I cannot lift my head
The roses from the last time
Are every bit as dead as you
Oh what I didn't do
You came with a warning
I was not afraid
But on this side of mourning
I am not as brave as you
Oh what I didn't do
Ladies and gents
Let us start the proceedings
Only five cents
For an unlimited beatings
Yes I should have been there
Instead of choosing nowhere
Can you find forgiveness
Somewhere in the ground
Yes I should have been there
Instead of choosing nowhere
Every worm can witness
As I pull the cold dirt down
Ladies and gents
Let us start the proceedings
Death will present
One more life without meaning
Yes, I should have been there
Instead of choosing nowhere
Can you find forgiveness
Every worm can witness
Somewhere in the ground
As I pull the cold dirt down
Ladies and gents
Let us start the proceedings
Only five cents
For unlimited beatings
Where are you between here and gone
Let me know what's going on
Where you been the last 3 days
Let me know whose bed you're gracing
I called a cab for you from the rock bar
When the bartender called out a cockstar
I held your hair for you when the shots sunk
You used to blow my mind
Now you're blowing chunks
Thoughts and prayers for you from the big chair
You ran the neighborhood in your underwear
I know you're not ashamed, don't think you should be
But for a good time
Wish you would call me
Where are you between here and gone
Let me know what's going on
Where you been the last 3 days
Let me know whose bed you're gracing
I know I've always been your rag-and-bone man
The thunder came and you pissed in the trashcan
It's always getting dark - it's like the sun slowed
If this is pushing away
Just pull the trigger and go
Where are you between here and gone
Let me know what's going on
Where you been the last 3 days
Let me know whose bed you're gracing
Bad dreams
Find a lighter
Breathe in
The morning goes green
Walk that bag
Over to me
Talk that trash
How does it feel
Not being real?
Last night
Such a blessing
No second guess
The sky a proscenium
Twelve dead lights
Shining on me
No one else
Could ever make me feel
Like I'm not real
I don't get up
I get high in the morning
I don't get up
I get high - it's a warning
It's so cool in the shadow of the mausoleum
I finally feel real in the mausoleum
Good day
Bring the night in
Bad dreams
Give the nice ones meaning
Spare this town
If you can't spare me
And if you can't spare anything
Keep the tombstone sealed
Til all is revealed
I don't get up
I get high in the morning
I don't get up
I get high - it's a warning
It's so cool in the shadow of the mausoleum
I finally feel real in the mausoleum
Get down to the liquor store tonight
Steal a pint of turpentine
Let's meet at the music store
Need a key for the clavichord
Let's walk to the Circle K
They got six blunts for a dollar-thirty-five
Jackpot in the shanty town
Hey man
Need me to write this down?
Tell Max that we need his car
Shot night at the karaoke bar
First stop is a local pawn
That dick, think his name is Don
Say you want a neon lamp
And I'll steal back my Fender amp
Jackpot in the shanty town
Hey man
Need me to write this down?
Swing by Aristotle's crib
It's Sunday so he's smoking ribs
Give his girl a quick massage
You sneak into his garage
Try to find his bass guitar
I can raid his minibar
Jackpot in the shanty town
Hey man
Need me to write this down?
We can crash with Sarah Jones
Can you spot me thirty bones
She's got her granddad's Cadillac
Shotgun - you can have the back
She's the condo in the hills
That's where her mama keeps her pills
Jackpot in the shanty town
Hey man
Need me to write this down?
Last stop is the trailer park
Don't go while the sky is dark
There's a dude called Mickey G
A paranoid superhero selling weed
Blue light purple dinosaur
Mouth stuff for a little more
Jackpot in the shanty town
Hey man
Need me to write this down?
Get down to the liquor store tonight
Steal a pint of turpentine
Let's meet at the music store
Need a key for the clavichord
Let's walk to the Circle K
They got six blunts for a dollar-thirty-five
Jackpot in the shanty town
Hey man
Need me to write this down?
You made me stay
While you only wanted to go
I gave away
The world I just started to know
Should have seen through the light
And just told you good night
Baby I've got spite
That I don't want to show
Your roses are gray
They faded away long ago
Just bury them in the dirt
Just bury them in the dirt
You've got a way
Of hitching a train to my load
Nothing to say
But show me a way to the road
Should have stayed through the night
Disconnected the light
Now I've got this fight
That you don't want to know
Your roses are gray
They faded away long ago
Just bury them in the dirt
Just bury them in the dirt
Give me one more gray rose
And I'll turn it back to blue
Give me one more gray rose
And I'll turn it back to blue
And I'll bury them in the dirt
I'll bury them in the dirt
You know I've seen you
Drifting to sea
Moved by the moon tide
Far from the beach
They say there's some island
The volcanoes made
I swear you will find it
One of these days
Drive from the east coast
Where time passes slow
Climb up the mountains
Of Colorado
And if the sky breaks there
You'll still be the one
Touched the moon tide
And loved by the sun
You know I've seen you
Lost in my crowd
Speaking so quietly
But life is too loud
So go cross the ocean
Your island is free
The moon tide is gracious
What else would it be?
Go free
I don't want you to feel down
But there's nothing going on
In this town
And I'll still be here at the bitter end
I do my best at the bitter end
Sometimes bitter is better
Sometimes bitter is better
Girlfriend
Go fast or go slow
'Cause you can't move at this pace
On my road
And I'll do my best to never make a sound
I was bitter then but I'm okay now
Sometimes bitter is better
Sometimes bitter is better
Ghost train coming
Won't you make me lay on
The tracks all tethered down
Ghost man coming
Either now or later
Running out of time
Go free
I don't want you to feel down
But there's nothing going on
In this town
And I'll still be here at the bitter end
I do my best at the bitter end
Sometimes bitter is better
Sometimes bitter is better
Ghost train coming
Won't you make me lay on
The tracks all tethered down
Ghost man coming
Either now or later
Running out of time
It's cold
Why is it cold
When the bombs fall everything goes
It's late
Lonely and late
Bang the tom-tom
Welcome my fate
Wasted time waiting on Superman
Watching the sky catch fire and burn
See my toes so curled
There's nobody else in the world
Everywhere's an island when there's no one around
I'm a tree falling and I don't hear a sound
Everywhere's an island when there's no one around
I'm a tree falling and I don't hear a sound
It's me
Why is it me?
I stand alone in a world of debris
Ring the bell
The cracked bell
There's no guide to take me through hell
Wasted time waiting on Superman
I was an accident even at birth
And so for what it's worth
There's nobody else on the earth
Nobody else in the world
Can come and take me home
Nobody else in the world
Can come and take me home
Nobody else in the world
Can come and take me home
Nobody else in the world
I guess it's better this way
Everywhere's an island when there's no one around
I'm a tree falling and I don't hear a sound
Everywhere's an island when there's no one around
I'm a tree falling and I don't hear a sound
Nobody else in the world
Can come and take me home
Nobody else in the world
Can come and take me home
Nobody else in the world
Can come and take me home
Nobody else in the world
I guess it's better this way
Nothing in the back of my mind
But the slow decline
Of our wasted time
Nothing on the tip of my tongue
But the songs we've sung
With guitars unstrung
I don't know just where to go
Lead me where the waters run low
Through the wild undertow
So this is the end of it all
So we had to fall
From the great black wall
We were not each other's kind
Thought we were so old too young
Time to push the first domino
And love the shape they make as they fall
We were not each other's kind
Thought we were so old too young
Time to push the first domino
And love the shape they make as they fall
And so this is the end of it all
So we had to fall
From the great black wall
