The seeds of another time
Placed within my mind
Baby I know you well enough
To be impressed by your lack of faith
Your golden hair
Displays a sense of pride
And I know you're mine
I know you well enough to be impressed

A hero stands for this fair town
A pyramid through rusted gates
The old man's gaze peers down his nose
A jewel for all a crown to behold
The escort stares through raccoon eyes
Pierce the fake snake skin disguise
A system born in metal meets
A lonely lion on fabric sheets
The ink stains on the spotless skin
The asphalt blocks out nature's sin
A ghastly mannequin dressed in quilts
Gently swinging outside the window
I get nothing from this picture
Cold empty blank stares are all we've ever had
I saw her dancing outside the tower
Throwing her paintings under the tires
Damp
Slept on floors in trashy rooms
Our hero finds an empty door
Cats will know the truth of doom
Posing to be something more
Oblique angle betray the set
The giant's hand holds down the jet
Red stilettos beneath the pole
Sylvia won't break her mold
And you lift the red curtain against the blue
A retro style that's nothing new

I'm not one for the dust
But the lake has dried
She's not one for the black lung
But we'll get by
The stakes of
Love
Drowning out all our problematic cries
We'll get by
Maybe always you were right
About this town and me
You were slow to the church bells
Even for we
You've known I have worked for me
But we all, we will all get by

I'll be coming home tomorrow
I'll be coming home to you
No time for feeling sorrow
Rachel you're my girl so know
I'll be coming home to you
Its funny how no idea remains
We stop caring about the nature of it
Wind up in the wrong place at the wrong time
Hollow out my head with your lead bite
I was so close to home
But I got cut down
I'm here with my chains off
Sing your last song
A parasite leeching off the blood of a stuck pig
Both of us will starve out before the night ends
I can't say I look forward to it
But it does have a certain humourous appeal
So tomorrow
I'll be coming home tomorrow
I'll be coming home to you
No time for feeling sorrow
Rachel you're my girl so know
I'll be coming home to you
Fossils of the future remain
Most of which I will never see
The hills are alive
With the sound of music
Two more lines to go
Oceans now as one
Sometimes she blacked out and said strange things
I thought we were changing perspectives
But you had no interest in mind spelunking
So grab your equipment and investigate my cave baby

The strangest thing
My dream came true
Turned black and blue
When tomorrow comes
Waiting by the bay
Will you ever find your upper limit?
Your castles in the air
But its been
Cut off
Your peasants will all starve
Think before you leave
I won't be there for free
A king never dies just sleeps
I'd really like to see you under the glass

I burned your letter
I only read half
After all this
Can I drown the laugh?
In my ears
In the walls
Coming from above
"Rachel, Rachel
Its all going to end
And don't you pretend
This is much too real
Who are you to question this world?"
Untrue, not real
Fictional and fact less
Not me not you
I just want it back
Today's gone, the day's lost
To countless miming
"Rachel, Rachel
Its all going to end
And don't you pretend
This is much too real
Who are you to question this world?"

Should I
Already know my place?
Confined
Into outer space
Never mind drawing circles on the page
Every time scratch the paper to erase
Never mind its not because of the machine
Compile
Delete the file
Corrupted
No entry but I'll try
To choose for you
I can't remember the last time
I slept soundly through the night
To dream about the creatures under my bed
Tell me something else to hear instead
I will remember you

It's a cluster of ideas
Not self aware
If the rays could reach us
We could climb back up there
Both verses are sung
In the same magic key
But he was number one
And she was number three
No sleep
Exactly that
No pictures to take
No sleep
Exactly that
Just the world we create
Theft of the conscious
Without the filter
Snap crackle pop
Damn it feels good to be a gangster
No sleep
Exactly that
No pictures to take
No sleep
Exactly that
Just the world we create

Then I poisoned her tea
A testament to human frailty
I thought about crowns
that's a road I don't want to go down
So I'll find another way
To choose
Where I'll fight another day
And lose
Now she's down for the count
They all love her but her demise was paramount
It's not because of our past
Our feline friend said you mustn't last
So I'll find another way
To choose
Where I'll fight another day
And lose

I need you to be afraid
I need you like I need a gun
Never needed me alive or dead
Just a specter or ghost
Just a specter or ghost
Rachel
I thought we were the same
What the fuck am I drinking
gluggluggluggluggluggggg

A Letter (Distressed)

Disease of another kind
Lays within your mind
Baby I know you well enough
To be distressed by your lack of faith
You're cold and scared
Displace by senseless lies
And I hope your fine
I know you well enough to be distressed
