I'm In Love Again

I’m in love again
with a twisted little bird
I’m in love
with a broken little girl
can’t you see him moving
can’t you see her fly
can’t you see them move me, baby,
me across the sky
me across the sky
I’m in love again
with a mist upon the sea
the coast of Brighton
and the ghost who haunts his dreams
and hides her gold in verses
hides up in the trees
hides me in her branches
so I can not be seen
I can not be seen
I’m in love again
with a long and twisted road
I can see Las Vegas in the distance
where nobody calls home
where no one seeks a fortune
and no one’s left to lose
nothing in that bag for me, baby,
nothing there for you
nothing there for you
I’m in love again
a whisper of a war
I am in love
left to die upon the shore
but I would not go easy
I would not be yours
I did not lay this body down just
kept coming back for more
kept coming back for more

When I wake up tomorrow, baby, I’m gonna start all over again
shine my shoes, take out the trash, let a little sunshine in
raze these mortal cities
and the pleasures that you gave to me
and start all over
I will start all over
I’m gonna start all over
when the dawn comes stealing in to your lonely little room
and the ground beneath you breaks and nations fall to ruin
when everything you believed
dies before it comes to be
you will start all over
you will start all over
you’re gonna start all over
when her fingers whisper low “come, love, come to me”
and she opens every door and love she comes to me
I will kill all suffering
and in her be born again
and sleep forever
till I start all over
I’m gonna sleep forever
when the rivers find their home in the mighty sea
and your children hide their eyes from your sad captivity
and the whales they sing like angels
and the tides they set you free
we will start all over
we’re gonna start all over
we’re gonna do it different this time

I Tried To Act Surprised
05:28

i had a dream that you were leaving
so when you did i tried to act surprised
but there’s a time and place for every damnedest love
and damn if this ain’t mine
please say that you don’t want me
tell me that i am just a worm
please let this be the moment that you leave
cause I can’t stand waiting anymore
and you can rage against the nighttime
you can sit there weeping till the dawn of the day
and you can call my name through the long and lonely morning
but you know baby we can’t go on this way
you used to say when we were older
we would weave the broken grasses of the plain
a ring of gold and a kiss for every star
now you tell me, “baby, love is pain”
i had a dream that you were leaving
so when you did i tried to act surprised
but there’s a time and place for every damnedest love
and damn if this ain’t mine

We Got Lucky
04:04
|

Don't you know we got lucky, babe?
Lucky with a six-eighteen
They say I should be grateful
but I don't think that's what grateful means.
They say I should fall on my knees
and praise the lord above
They say that I should give myself
unto his holy love
But we don't want no afterlife
we don't want no great beyond
Maybe go to school, do something cool,
make a living for f•••ing once,
don't you know we got lucky.
Don't you know we got lucky, babe?
Born in the USA.
Spend our money as we please
as soon as we get paid.
Don't you know we're gonna scratch that stone
till it bleeds a bloody dime
Touch me, touch me, baby,
one more time,
but I don't need no light of god,
don't need no afterlife,
the cops are coming, baby, hide your eyes
and we'll make it through the night,
don't you know we got lucky, babe.
Don't you know we got lucky, babe,
for the teeth still in the jaw?
Got our health till winter comes
creeping through the walls.
We mangy dogs, we crackin' skin,
we fightin' just for fun.
Somebody died downstairs last night,
the doctor never come.
So, we don't want no afterlife,
don't need no heavenly host,
and if I am the lucky one,
this whole thing is a joke,
don't you know we got lucky, babe.
Don't you know we got lucky, babe?
Burned down the Mickey D's
Don't you know we got lucky, babe,
if that's what lucky means,
They say I should fall on
They say I should fall on my knees
and praise the lord above
They say that I should give myself
unto his holy love.
But we don't want no afterlife
we don't want no great beyond
Maybe go to school, do something cool,
make a living for f•••ing once,
don't you know we got lucky.

Love Is Still Alive
05:55
|

I had a dream, sky darkest blue,
moon high above o she shining on you
Scorpion rise on sovereign sea
I am in the stars and the stars are in me
and I can hear you singing in that deepest darkest night
and I know the big one’s coming, baby, but I know love is still alive, love is still alive
You hold the flint, I hold the steel,
and I will be the words, baby, you will be the feel,
a song for the weary from far galaxy
I am in the wolf and the wolf is in me
do you see me moving baby
flying cross the seven seas,
a low and hungry lullaby,
bring you to your knees
and I still hear you singing
through that long and lonely night
and I know the big one’s coming, baby
but I know love is still alive
Scorpion rise, and the wolf is coming too,
and I am in the song and the song is in you
The stars take the moon, and the moon takes the sea,
and the song takes the hunger, baby, and the hunger, it takes me
and when the wall comes down,
you know I’ll be standing by
with a fork and a spoon and a hunger for you,
when the veil is cast aside
and I still hear you singing
in that long and lonely night
and I know the big one’s coming
but I know love is still alive

Master Chaynjis
06:32

You been working that master chaynj
you been waiting on the world to chaynj
you been counting up gold that you’ll never see
you been counting like a fool on a chaynj in me
But, somewhere in the circuits
I can hear you working to keep it all the same
I know you’re watching me,
I know you’re watching that master chaynj
Sun rise on the master chaynj
a brand new dawn for a brand new day
I heard the sound of the white shadow
I heard the sound of the beetle digging that sparrow’s grave
Can’t you hear the way the ocean moves
Can’t you see the moon, she’s laughing at you
Can’t you get a little bandage for that little wound
Can’t you feel that master chaynj coming for you

I’m gonna start all over
when the dawn comes stealing in to your lonely little room
and the ground beneath you breaks and nations fall to ruin

you will start all over
you will start all over
you’re gonna start all over
