[ click on a title above for further information ]
Guns look good to me and so do
cigarettes.
When we kiss I think about your death.
'Cos everyone I love will slip away from me,
And every ship that's leaving here is holed.
Frank Sinatra's singing means so much to me,
Malcom X's courage, words I hear.
Critic turn your gun until it faces you
It's only been a mirror all along.
I'm Alright.
I believe in Angels, I believe in prayer.
I believe in love, I believe in love.
I don't need to understand this universe,
Magic is more real to me than law.
I'm Alright
I believe in freedom, it's worth dying for
Life without the struggle is not life at all.
I believe in love, I believe in love.
I sit here in silence so I don't miss the phone
If I go out you're sure to call me at home
I smashed my cellphone cos you never call back
And I can't see straight since you turned the sun black.
I'm thinking all day but I'm not sleeping at nights
I'm planning violence but I don't want to fight
I'll run a bath but I don't want to be clean
I'm going to cut my wrists and empty my veins like a stream
Please, please don't leave ME
ME, ME, ME
And when they find me I'll be cold I'll be white
Never more will I kiss you goodnight
And never more will I say to my friend 'Baby I'll love you til the bitter end'.
Please, please don't leave ME
And when they found me, I was a mess
I was selfish and stupid, Now I'm selfish and dead
And my baby cried.
I'd never have guessed the words that she cried.
I want to lick you, suck you, fuck you.
It was a secret, but now it's shared with you.
I could have lied, I could have promised you some roses.
What use are roses? There's nothing more beautiful than truth.
Don't ask me about
tomorrow.
And I won't ever lie to you.
NO NO NO
I want you, I want you, I
want you, I need you.
Lead me on, feed me, make me whole.
Hold me as if I was your last breath.
You'll break this heart, you'll tear my soul in two.
Don't ask me about
tomorrow.
And I won't ever lie to you.
NO NO NO
Higher.
Take it higher.
Higher, higher.
YES YES YES.
“I was born to fuck you up” she said,
And closed her eyes
She dipped her head and then she gave herself
another perfect disguise
Where are the Six Inch Killaz?
Six Inch Killaz. Talk about the Killaz.
High-heeled Killaz
"Blow it up and burn it down!"
She wrote this on our walls
She found the fence that we'd been
sitting on,
And then she turned it on
"I'm very good at fucking up" she said
And then she thrashed that guitar hard
She found hostility and then she silenced it
That's how she knew she had the power, and
she was going to use it
Poppies red running through her veins
Poppies slow her heart
Sid and Nancyboy meets girl
Tragedy masquerades as art
Beware the myth when you make a myth
Had enough, I've had enough of
tasting my blood I bit my lip, I bit my lip right through my face
Had enough, it's hard to be more literate
Because news is confused, when you've been
eating squaddie meat Happy Doomsday
Just like any other
Happy Doomsday Had enough, (now's the time when I've got to
sing some words
About the feelings that I've got inside my head
There's nothing there that I think you'd find
interesting because you've been eating squaddie meat)
But you'll soon discover
The fate of greedy fuckers Had enough, had enough, I've had enough of
'being tough'
Love could be the hammer, and I see chains to break.
Let's end this epidemic of panic and bullshit.
I'll trust in love
I'll trust in love
They're Vampire State Building
They'respreading the cold control
They'll hiss their threats of death
But I'm not scared
I'm not scared to die.
Love's the best poison, to
bring down the beast
that's keeping us hurt, in dark corners of fear
I'll trust in love
I'll trust in love
They're Vampire State Building
They're spreading the cold control
They'll hiss their threats of death
But I'm not scared
I'm not scared to die.
Pink-eyed dead found sleeping on the bus
Going nowhere fast, dreaming of home furnishings
Dreaming of retirement, life on less than empty
Where’s the satisfaction?
Where’s what you’ve been promising?
Why am I so lonely? Why do I feel simulated?
Why do you hide the roadmap? Do I have to keep on breathing?
Where’s the satisfaction? Where’s what you’ve been promising?
Why am I so disappointed? Why am I so unrewarded?
Why am I so tired? Why am I so very ugly?
Unattractive in my own eyes. You made this mirror to lie
Why do I feel simulated? Why do I feel isolated?
Why do you lie about the rainbow?
Do I have to keep on breathing?
I got freedoms 'cause I stole them
I make concrete my own dreams
I got my songs, you go write
yours
And I'll see you in the stars.
HA HA HA.
It's my body 'cause I've
claimed it
I can do what the fuck I want
I can waste it if I want to
I can live the chemical life
WE ARE ROYALTY
So what's the point in playing dead?
We'll all get there soon enough
I'm awake now and I see all
And I'm laughing through my tears
WE ARE ROYALTY
I got freedoms 'cause I stole them
I make concrete my own dreams
I got my songs, you go write yours
And I'll see you in the stars
Now you see, now you see, now you see we're royalty.
