	How To Look
	NakedI had see'd people bleed and
	I thought
	I'd seen it allbut my own two eyes would prove me wrong that day.
	There are things that
	I done only seen by the sunand those things will be buried in my grave.
	The crows and the buzzards will pick your bones clean.
	No name of your's will be upon the wall.
	Hogtied on
	Halloween and raped by magazines
	We line up on the edge to watch you fall.
	No one knows you don't take off your clothes
	You took to the land like fishes take to sand.
	You clambered up your cross to raise your flag.
	Made tissue paper sails.
	Used thread instead of nails.
	Your autograph was carved across your back.
	We thought that you were done, but then you grabbed your gun.
	You pushed and barked and ran full speed ahead.
	You tore over the hill.
	We cannot find you still.
	We hit the lights and hoped that you'd be dead.
	No one knows you don't take off your clothes.
	We hope we'll get to see you fall through the canopy.
	With a stomach full of blood, you'll find the ground…..
	We Light Up
	I got my camera,
	I'm gonna take your picture tonight, and you can see what you look like.
	You got your camera, you're gonna take my picture tonight, and
	I can see what
	I look like too,with you, who knew that we'd look so good beaten black and blue.
	You got your hair tied back and your fur coat on.
	You call your girlfriends up and then we're gone.
	We gonna meet down the street and we're drinking for free,we pinky shake as you order your martini.
	One last round and away we go, we run a little bit late, but make the show.
	They were getting pretty friendly in the back of the car.
	We gotta fight that crowd to reach that bar.
	We're gonna rage in the city all night long.
	We're gonna rage in the city all night long.
	Your discotheque won't play my song.
	We're gonna rage in the city all night long.
	I got my camera,
	I'm gonna take your picture tonight, and you can see what you look like.
	You got your camera, you're gonna take my picture tonight, and
	I can see what
	I look like too,with you, who knew that we'd look so good beaten black and blue.
	Well the band goes on, but we digress.
	We gotta take the back stairs for roof access.
	We can hear the city scream as we yell from the top.
	It's 12:19 and we won't stop.
	Late night lurks are underground.
	Downstairs snares and ugly sounds.
	I'm gonna make a proposition that
	I know you're about.
	We're going back to your place to act it out.
	And then we'll rage in the city all night long.
	We're gonna rage in the city all night long.
	Your discotheque won't play my song.
	We're gonna rage in the city all night long.
	The bridge, the tower, the top of the roof.
	We light up the night and we're taking it to.
	House to house, and mouth to mouth.
	The fire escapes we shake where the sky scrapes.
	The flights rise, and they collide.
	Tonight we will not be denied.
	I could see that you were trouble from the moment we met,but sometimes
	I've gotta live out what
	I'm gonna regret.
	We're gonna rage in the city all night long.
	We're gonna rage in the city all night long.
	Your discotheque won't play my song.
	We're gonna rage in the city all night long.
	I Want You
	ToDrop the ship in the water and don't look back
	Paint the stables red and the fire black
	We watch the white horse run
	White horse ride from the cell in it's cellar
	Gonna get inside
	Read the face on the shitter right between the ears
	As his holes don't close when he's spitting spears
	There's an eye of a liar on the other side
	And a hole through the chest of the one that died
	I want you to
	You giveth away because
	I want you to
	You taketh away because
	I want you to
	You kiss on the lips because
	I want you to
	I want you to
	Kill a few, kill a dozen, kill another's kin
	He's rapping on the pane of the window again
	He's got a blade for a tongue and there's snakes for eyes
	And his hand's on the handles of a hundred knives
	And if they don't fall down you can watch them run
	With two bullets in your pocket and a rusty gun
	We going three by three to the mountain top
	To throw that son of a bitch right off the highest drop
	I want you to
	You open your mouth because
	I want you to
	You dance on my heart because
	I want you to
	You choke on your words because
	I want you to
	I want you to
	The devil won't take my place
	I need to touch your pretty face
	He don't know your name
	But you're all pretty much the same
	You wanna be my frown?
	I can promise that you'll be let down
	You're a whirling dervish
	A prude to purchase
	Afraid to surface and serve this
	Oh babyI want you to
	You pull out the plug because
	I want you to
	You stick in my guts because
	I want you to
	You pray on your knees because
	I want you to
	I want you to
	I want you to
	You giveth away because
	I want you to
	You taketh away because
	I want you to
	You kiss on the lips because
	I want you to
	I want you to
	The Girl In
	BlackThere's a flame in the desert at the foot of the hills
	And there's a circle in the sand where the water spills
	There's a line up the spine of the girl in black
	And it rips through her dress at the small of her back
	She's been waiting there to take you through that door
	So you can lay her down on the cavern floor
	And you'll see the same flame burning in her eyes
	As you smear your stink across her inner thighs
	You couldn't leave well enough alone
	You hold your heart like it's made out of stone
	You couldn't leave well enough alone
	Alone alone alone
	She slithers through the snow like a snake but she's still
	And she come's floating through the window without touching the sill
	She prefers to make an entrance without using the door
	And she'll be standing on your bed before she crosses the floor
	She's a will-of-the-wisp as she's swinging her hips
	Her breath is like a worm spinning silk from her lips
	And tonight spook lights will be seen from your room
	And you and her and
	Jack and I are swimming in gloom
	You couldn't leave well enough alone
	You hold your heart like it's made out of stone
	You couldn't leave well enough alone
	Alone alone alone
	The Colour
	EscapesCome on baby lemme give you a name
	And we'll see if you can find a purpose
	These faces all look the same
	And I can guarantee they're worthless
	Some souls are bought and sold
	They fold beneath the surface
	We cannot take their hands
	They'll hold their gold and curse us
	The colour escapes, you know
	You've seen my heart and it's black as coal
	It's not the one that
	I wanted to show
	You were built like a light on a stilt
	And I can see you wilt in silence
	People stand around waiting for signs
	They become blind to your vibrance
	They don't look, put their faith in a book
	The end result is violence
	Mind you, that bliss it sits on shit
	It sits on mindlessness
	The colour escapes, you know
	You've seen my heart and it's black as coal
	It's not the one that
	I wanted to show
	Tiger By The
	TailI see, look across the way there
	Like flame, giving me the same stare
	Eyes locked
	Exhibits A and
	BYou draw a line
	Cutting through the air and
	ConnectMaking us a pair then
	It's my hope to get burned
	Don't you see?
	Big kitty cats don't lick no paws
	And little kitty cats don't show no claws
	Big kitty cats don't lick no paws
	And little kitty cats don't show no claws
	I got a tiger by the tail
	And I'm gonna give it a little kick
	And then a big kiss
	It's not safe down on the ground, no
	They keep circling around, yeah
	You better learn to climb a tree
	It's not safe
	Not where we at, no
	You had better get yourself a bat and
	Start swinging away at anything you see
	I got a tiger by the tail
	And I'm gonna give it a little kick
	And then a big kiss
	Your Head
	Will Be Rotting
	On A Spike
	Your head will be rotting on a spike
	I don't complain much but
	I mightYour life's on a loop just like before
	You stuff your face and still want more
	My head may be rotting on a spike
	I don't complain much but
	I mightGiven the time it's not the time to make an enemy
	And you will stop seeing
	Give us some time and try to wind up all the ends you find
	There's no end to be seen
	Now that you're blind they're not so kind, not so accepting now
	That you are not breeding
	Bring all you have and all you had, give all you got
	Or stopOur heads they are rotting on their spikes
	We can't complain, we lost our sight
	As useless as we were before
	We stuff our face, but we are sure
	We are sore
	Given the time it's not the time to make an enemy
	And you will stop seeing
	Give us some time and try to wind up all the ends you find
	There's no end to be seen
	Now that you're blind they're not so kind, not so accepting now
	That you are not breeding
	Bring all you have and all you had, give all you got
	Or stopTorch
	From The Sky
	Did you hear as she called
	As her voice came down the hall
	How it trembled as soft as a little girl?
	Towards the knock on the door
	I watched you glide across the floor
	As you answered a hundred voices spoke
	We will crawl through the mud
	They will bathe in their own blood
	We will take them like a splinter from an eye
	And we come in the night
	We are made of blackest light
	Like a torch falling fast out of the sky
	There's no fat in this land
	The old heart has left it's hand
	So let's sit and watch the distant fires glow
	We will steal what we could
	We are through being good
	We will only be the sum of what you know
	Did you hear the awful sound
	As they pushed into the town?
	I could tell the switch had flipped inside your head
	There's no love left to give
	We can't hide, we can't live
	We are holding hands and walking with the dead
	You can take me home
	But I can't be alone
	I can't be alone
	Did you hear as she called
	As her voice came down the hall
	How it trembled as soft as a little girl?
	Towards the knock on the door
	I watched you glide across the floor
	As you answered a hundred voices spoke
	We will crawl through the mud
	They will bathe in their own blood
	We will take them like a splinter from an eye
	And we come in the night
	We are made of blackest light
	Like a torch falling fast out of the sky
	Like a torch falling fast out of the sky
	Like a torch falling fast out of the sky
	Like a torch falling fast out of the sky
	Because Of
	YouBecause of you
	I've searched
	The back streets to the shore
	The river banks
	No thanksIt won't feel like before
	Because of this
	I fish for little bits of time
	I memorized your thoughts
	And turned them into mine
	I thought
	I'd let you know
	I won't be letting go
	I won't be turning cheek
	I won't be swallowing
	I thought
	I'd let you know
	I won't be letting go
	I won't be turning cheek
	I won't be suffering
	Because of you
	I wasteThe life
	I thought
	I madeI throw away what's warm
	The colour starts to fade
	Because it seems
	I dreamOf being somewhere else
	I try to find that place
	And end up by myself
	I thought
	I'd let you know
	I won't be letting go
	I won't be turning cheek
	I won't be swallowing
	I thought
	I'd let you know
	I won't be letting go
	I won't be turning cheek
	I won't be suffering
	SplayedWhen you die
	I'm gonna roll around and laugh on the floor
	I'll party like we never had a party before
	When you fall
	I'm gonna be there just to raise up a glass
	All dreams fulfilled of putting boots in your ass
	You know there's something inside me
	Like an animal that's gotta get out
	You know there's something inside me
	That makes me wanna put my fist in your mouth
	When I die
	I'm gonna come back and haunt you for fun
	Slam doors, move books, make you pee while you run
	When I'm done
	I'm gonna celebrate my ghostly success
	With my invisible penis watching ladies undress
	You know there's something inside me
	Like an animal that's gotta get out
	You know there's something inside me
	But it's not me
	You know there's something inside me
	Like an animal that's gotta get out
	You know there's something inside me
	That makes me wanna put my fist in your mouth
	But it's not me
	Scream Hallelujah
	Now things have turned for the worse
	Thought I was so well rehearsed
	I guess I'm probably cursed
	I just don't know
	I beat my head on the wall
	I'm trying not to recall
	The inevitable fall
	And so it goes
	I'm struck so shockingly dumb
	I know now
	I can become
	The definition of numb
	And you can too
	So let's all pull out our teeth
	And go to sleep like good sheep
	Let's watch our
	TVs and weep
	Oh yesYou better
	Scream Hallelujah
	Scream Hallelujah
	You better
	Scream Hallelujah
	Hallelujah
	Now get the **** back in line
	And pay your taxes on time
	And lay around like you're swine
	There is no doubt
	You live your life on the screen
	And talk about what you've seen
	A vicarious dream
	You won't live out
	They put the rails in your head
	And as you travel you're led
	You can't control what you're fed
	But you won't gag
	So lock your yourself up indoors
	Ignorant media whores
	Before you're gasping in your plastic bag
	You better
	Scream Hallelujah
	Scream Hallelujah
	You better
	Scream Hallelujah
	Hallelujah
	I don't want you to go it alone
	So I left a little seed and it's grown
	But somehow you don't seem
	Like one for watering
	I'll never ask you why
	But these little things, they die
	You better
	Scream Hallelujah
	Scream Hallelujah
	You better
	Scream Hallelujah
	Hallelujah
	BakeliteBlood is wrong
	But always on the corner of the tabletop
	A bag of bones that sits and smokes
	And laughs at all your stupid jokes
	It's such a fuss to fall for love
	Not fall in love
	To fallA drug
	So smug at first
	Then learns the thirst
	Gets worse and worse
	And all your new found
	Hope is gone
	But all along
	It always was
	The same old song
	And dance for now
	You dance so proud
	You sing so loud
	You break apart
	A work ofI hate myself so full of shits
	A giggle fit
	For wasting time
	And passing by
	I settle down
	Into a frown
	So many years
	Of wearing down
	And out of this
	It's ludicrous to amputate
	A simple wish because it sits
	Just right outside appropriate
	And yourHope is gone
	But all along
	It always was
	The same old song
	And dance for now
	You dance so proud
	You sing so loud
	You break apart
	A work of art
	Burn The World
	Where are we?
	Where are we?
	We are searching endlessly
	I got only one night left
	I'm never going to bed
	And where is she?
	Not freeBrain chained
	Lock and key
	She got-A little fever
	But it's killing my head
	I thought
	I burned the world
	Around me down but now
	The sound is clearly calling us
	Right back to watch them wind it up
	I thought you burned the world
	Around you down but now
	The sound is clearly calling us
	Right back to watch them wind it up again
	We fallWe break
	It seems real but it's all fake
	It's on the television
	It's your decision
	You walk away with weights on
	And you're gonna sink
	You're extinct
	In your hole
	They say you've lost your soul
	I know the grass won't grow
	So slick, you slipped
	But you slid too slow
	You knowI thought
	I burned the world
	Around me down but now
	The sound is clearly calling us
	Right back to watch them wind it up
	I thought you burned the world
	Around you down but now
	The sound is clearly calling us
	Right back to watch them wind it up again
	Grinning Like
	A SlitYou can look to the mountain
	You can talk to the dead
	You can run to the city lights
	But it's all in your head
	You can look to a stranger
	But all you'll find is a wall
	You can wish all you want
	But no one answers at all
	GoodbyesThey are flies
	That rise from shit
	And I was skinning
	A new beginning
	While you were grinning
	Like a slit
	You can try not to cry out
	As you wake in the night
	You can stare at the blackness
	But it's taken your sight
	You imagine a face there
	That you can almost touch
	You can reach all you want
	But it's only a crutch
	GoodbyesThey are flies
	That rise from shit
	And I was skinning
	A new beginning
	While you were grinning
	Like a slit
	Where are you now?
	Where is the crowd?
	These sleeping streets
	Are speaking aloud
	And I couldn't recall
	The feeling at all
	The moment
	I realized
	I was going to fall

	BakeliteBlood is wrong
	But always on the corner of the tabletop
	A bag of bones that sits and smokes
	And laughs at all your stupid jokes
	It' s such a fuss to fall for love
	Not fall in love
	To fallA drug
	So smug at first
	Then learns the thirst
	Gets worse and worse
	And all your new found
	Hope is gone
	But all along
	It always was
	The same old song
	And dance for now
	You dance so proud
	You sing so loud
	You break apart
	A work ofI hate myself so full of shits
	A giggle fit
	For wasting time
	And passing by
	I settle down
	Into a frown
	So many years
	Of wearing down
	And out of this
	It' s ludicrous to amputate
	A simple wish because it sits
	Just right outside appropriate
	And yourHope is gone
	But all along

	I got only one night left
	I' m never going to bed
	And where is she?
	Not freeBrain chained
	Lock and key
	She gotA little fever
	But it' s killing my head
	I thought
	I burned the world
	Around me down but now
	The sound is clearly calling us
	Right back to watch them wind it up
	I thought you burned the world
	Around you down but now
	The sound is clearly calling us
	Right back to watch them wind it up again
	We fallWe break
	It seems real but it' s all fake
	It' s on the television
	It' s your decision
	You walk away with weights on
	And you' re gonna sink
	You' re extinct
	In your hole
	They say you' ve lost your soul
	I know the grass won' t grow
	So slick, you slipped
	But you slid too slow
	You knowI thought
	I burned the world

	Grinning Like
	A SlitYou can look to the mountain
	You can talk to the dead
	You can run to the city lights
	But it' s all in your head
	You can look to a stranger
	But all you' ll find is a wall
	You can wish all you want
	But no one answers at all
	GoodbyesThey are flies
	That rise from shit
	And I was skinning
	A new beginning
	While you were grinning
	Like a slit
	You can try not to cry out
	As you wake in the night
	You can stare at the blackness
	But it' s taken your sight
	You imagine a face there
	That you can almost touch
	You can reach all you want
	But it' s only a crutch
	GoodbyesThey are flies
	That rise from shit
	And I was skinning
	A new beginning
	While you were grinning
	Like a slit
	Where are you now?
	Where is the crowd?
	These sleeping streets
	Are speaking aloud
	And I couldn' t recall
	The feeling at all
	The moment
	I realized
	I was going to fall

	How To Look
	NakedI had see' d people bleed and
	I thought
	I' d seen it allbut my own two eyes would prove me wrong that day.
	There are things that
	I done only seen by the sunand those things will be buried in my grave.
	The crows and the buzzards will pick your bones clean.
	No name of your' s will be upon the wall.
	Hogtied on
	Halloween and raped by magazines
	We line up on the edge to watch you fall.
	No one knows you don' t take off your clothes
	You took to the land like fishes take to sand.
	You clambered up your cross to raise your flag.
	Made tissue paper sails.
	Used thread instead of nails.
	Your autograph was carved across your back.
	We thought that you were done, but then you grabbed your gun.
	You pushed and barked and ran full speed ahead.
	You tore over the hill.
	We cannot find you still.
	We hit the lights and hoped that you' d be dead.
	No one knows you don' t take off your clothes.
	We hope we' ll get to see you fall through the canopy.
	With a stomach full of blood, you' ll find the ground..
	We Light Up
	I got my camera,
	I' m gonna take your picture tonight, and you can see what you look like.
	You got your camera, you' re gonna take my picture tonight, and
	I can see what
	I look like too, with you, who knew that we' d look so good beaten black and blue.
	You got your hair tied back and your fur coat on.
	You call your girlfriends up and then we' re gone.
	We gonna meet down the street and we' re drinking for free, we pinky shake as you order your martini.
	One last round and away we go, we run a little bit late, but make the show.
	They were getting pretty friendly in the back of the car.
	We gotta fight that crowd to reach that bar.
	We' re gonna rage in the city all night long.
	We' re gonna rage in the city all night long.
	Your discotheque won' t play my song.
	We' re gonna rage in the city all night long.
	I got my camera,

	I look like too, with you, who knew that we' d look so good beaten black and blue.
	Well the band goes on, but we digress.
	We gotta take the back stairs for roof access.
	We can hear the city scream as we yell from the top.
	It' s 12: 19 and we won' t stop.
	Late night lurks are underground.
	Downstairs snares and ugly sounds.
	I' m gonna make a proposition that
	I know you' re about.
	We' re going back to your place to act it out.
	And then we' ll rage in the city all night long.
	We' re gonna rage in the city all night long.
	Your discotheque won' t play my song.
	We' re gonna rage in the city all night long.
	The bridge, the tower, the top of the roof.
	We light up the night and we' re taking it to.
	House to house, and mouth to mouth.
	The fire escapes we shake where the sky scrapes.
	The flights rise, and they collide.
	Tonight we will not be denied.
	I could see that you were trouble from the moment we met, but sometimes
	I' ve gotta live out what
	I' m gonna regret.
	We' re gonna rage in the city all night long.
	We' re gonna rage in the city all night long.
	Your discotheque won' t play my song.
	We' re gonna rage in the city all night long.
	I Want You
	ToDrop the ship in the water and don' t look back
	Paint the stables red and the fire black
	We watch the white horse run
	White horse ride from the cell in it' s cellar
	Gonna get inside
	Read the face on the shitter right between the ears
	As his holes don' t close when he' s spitting spears
	There' s an eye of a liar on the other side
	And a hole through the chest of the one that died
	I want you to
	You giveth away because
	I want you to
	You taketh away because
	I want you to
	You kiss on the lips because
	I want you to
	I want you to
	Kill a few, kill a dozen, kill another' s kin
	He' s rapping on the pane of the window again
	He' s got a blade for a tongue and there' s snakes for eyes
	And his hand' s on the handles of a hundred knives
	And if they don' t fall down you can watch them run
	With two bullets in your pocket and a rusty gun
	We going three by three to the mountain top
	To throw that son of a bitch right off the highest drop
	I want you to
	You open your mouth because
	I want you to
	You dance on my heart because
	I want you to
	You choke on your words because
	I want you to
	I want you to
	The devil won' t take my place
	I need to touch your pretty face
	He don' t know your name
	But you' re all pretty much the same
	You wanna be my frown?
	I can promise that you' ll be let down
	You' re a whirling dervish
	A prude to purchase
	Afraid to surface and serve this
	Oh babyI want you to
	You pull out the plug because
	I want you to
	You stick in my guts because
	I want you to
	You pray on your knees because
	I want you to
	I want you to
	I want you to
	You giveth away because
	I want you to
	You taketh away because
	I want you to
	You kiss on the lips because
	I want you to
	I want you to
	The Girl In
	BlackThere' s a flame in the desert at the foot of the hills
	And there' s a circle in the sand where the water spills
	There' s a line up the spine of the girl in black
	And it rips through her dress at the small of her back
	She' s been waiting there to take you through that door
	So you can lay her down on the cavern floor
	And you' ll see the same flame burning in her eyes
	As you smear your stink across her inner thighs
	You couldn' t leave well enough alone
	You hold your heart like it' s made out of stone
	You couldn' t leave well enough alone
	Alone alone alone
	She slithers through the snow like a snake but she' s still
	And she come' s floating through the window without touching the sill
	She prefers to make an entrance without using the door
	And she' ll be standing on your bed before she crosses the floor
	She' s a willofthewisp as she' s swinging her hips
	Her breath is like a worm spinning silk from her lips
	And tonight spook lights will be seen from your room
	And you and her and
	Jack and I are swimming in gloom
	You couldn' t leave well enough alone
	You hold your heart like it' s made out of stone
	You couldn' t leave well enough alone
	Alone alone alone
	The Colour
	EscapesCome on baby lemme give you a name
	And we' ll see if you can find a purpose
	These faces all look the same
	And I can guarantee they' re worthless
	Some souls are bought and sold
	They fold beneath the surface
	We cannot take their hands
	They' ll hold their gold and curse us
	The colour escapes, you know
	You' ve seen my heart and it' s black as coal
	It' s not the one that
	I wanted to show
	You were built like a light on a stilt
	And I can see you wilt in silence
	People stand around waiting for signs
	They become blind to your vibrance
	They don' t look, put their faith in a book
	The end result is violence
	Mind you, that bliss it sits on shit
	It sits on mindlessness
	The colour escapes, you know
	You' ve seen my heart and it' s black as coal

	A bag of bones that sits and smokes
	And laughs at all your stupid jokes
	It' s such a fuss to fall for love
	Not fall in love
	To fallA drug
	So smug at first
	Then learns the thirst
	Gets worse and worse
	And all your new found
	Hope is gone
	But all along
	It always was
	The same old song
	And dance for now
	You dance so proud
	You sing so loud
	You break apart
	A work ofI hate myself so full of shits
	A giggle fit
	For wasting time
	And passing by
	I settle down
	Into a frown
	So many years
	Of wearing down
	And out of this
	It' s ludicrous to amputate
	A simple wish because it sits
	Just right outside appropriate
	And yourHope is gone
	But all along
	It always was
	The same old song
	And dance for now
	You dance so proud
	You sing so loud
	You break apart
	A work of art
	Burn The World
	Where are we?
	Where are we?
	We are searching endlessly
	I got only one night left
	I' m never going to bed
	And where is she?
	Not freeBrain chained
	Lock and key
	She gotA little fever
	But it' s killing my head
	I thought
	I burned the world
	Around me down but now
	The sound is clearly calling us
	Right back to watch them wind it up
	I thought you burned the world
	Around you down but now
	The sound is clearly calling us
	Right back to watch them wind it up again
	We fallWe break
	It seems real but it' s all fake
	It' s on the television
	It' s your decision
	You walk away with weights on
	And you' re gonna sink
	You' re extinct
	In your hole
	They say you' ve lost your soul
	I know the grass won' t grow
	So slick, you slipped
	But you slid too slow
	You knowI thought
	I burned the world
	Around me down but now
	The sound is clearly calling us
	Right back to watch them wind it up
	I thought you burned the world
	Around you down but now
	The sound is clearly calling us
	Right back to watch them wind it up again
	Grinning Like
	A SlitYou can look to the mountain
	You can talk to the dead
	You can run to the city lights
	But it' s all in your head
	You can look to a stranger
	But all you' ll find is a wall
	You can wish all you want
	But no one answers at all
	GoodbyesThey are flies
	That rise from shit
	And I was skinning
	A new beginning
	While you were grinning
	Like a slit
	You can try not to cry out
	As you wake in the night
	You can stare at the blackness
	But it' s taken your sight
	You imagine a face there
	That you can almost touch
	You can reach all you want
	But it' s only a crutch
	GoodbyesThey are flies
	That rise from shit
	And I was skinning
	A new beginning
	While you were grinning
	Like a slit
	Where are you now?
	Where is the crowd?
	These sleeping streets
	Are speaking aloud
	And I couldn' t recall
	The feeling at all
	The moment
	I realized
	I was going to fall
