Hey
You leave your manners at the door
And watch me bleed unto the floor
and sing
the songs
you think you’ve heard before
You know that we are still young
You know you’re only 21?
And still
there's time
to make things ugly
Well I don’t get high if I can’t get down
And I don’t know why if I don’t know how
And I’m acting strange
I can’t wear it out
And it’s what I want
But it’s what I’m not now
Sing to me
Oh, your voice is water
I’d be it
You teach me how to breathe
Hey
I’ll do the talking
you just breathe
Transfusion
Effortlessly,
we seek and save the bits we think we need
And load it into your skin
Yeah it’s the game you always win
Man I’m clean
And painted
No longer ugly

Empty
the screen
Like me
An anomaly
And you believe
like me
that this
is not a dream
The modern motion
Makes me uneasy
This could be happening
When I lose the meaning
So take me out
And when you tear me up
I’ll be kind
Like a cancer, born to die
And don’t take me back
Give me your heart attack
I’m like a broken machine
So grieve
to dance
to sing
Play it on repeat
And my light
was clean
We had such pretty things
I’m not a wrecked car
I’m not a dead star
This is happening
When I lose the meaning

Plastic Kiss

Everything is everywhere
So turn it off
And if everyone was someone
Meant to be black and white
I’ll believe you if you say
I’m right as rain
With broken hearts and kisses
The love we know is violence
Children shouldn’t play with knives
To cut the light is to drown the mind
It doesn’t matter so don’t wonder why
When I lose all of the words I write
I don’t hurt anymore
The way that I want
Sell affection with fame
Our tragedies are tame
These are delicate things
My limbs held on strings
And my hands in my hair
My losing was fair
Kill the old, feed the new
Paint it black, paint it blue
Make some noise, gut the sound
Turn it up, scream out loud
The buildings are gold
The summers are cold
In a digital dream
My life on a screen
The lineage that I wrecked
I’m feeding this debt
That I dig with my voice
I’ll pay back in flesh
This is how to laugh
This is how to cry
Give anything
This is in your life

Hello
Nice to meet you
I’ve waited for this moment
In line
At your exit
And I don’t know why
So I’ll never know you
And I’ll never know
And I saw you in a dream
Though I wish that I hadn’t
And I try to shake it off
It’s not so important
So I’ll never know you
And I’ll never know
But I’m not you
With things to undo
But I’m not you

Lie to me like metal dreams
We drive until we die
Strobe lights and your perfect eyes
Just talk to me until I sleep
It’s the closest thing to purity
I wore these clothes
because I thought you’d like me
Because I waited so long
With these rented love songs
And compliments to you, I wouldn’t compare
I would tell you what I want to
Listen to you like it was true
Like I was who you waited to see
And it’s a cold knife
When I hold my breath until
I see stars fall from the sky
Pretend I’m porcelain with you

Turn back the pages
Open your faces
Look at the water
Cut hands
Your daughters
Sand
under my skin
Sand
under your skin
This is the bone house
This is the bone house

Art (Doesn't) Matter

Art doesn’t matter
I plant pretty patterns
Then they die of thirst
Then they die of thirst
Jump from the highest towers
I will show off my skin
I will write platitudes
I will write platitudes
If you love it, then let it go
Don’t tell me “I told you so”
See the light like I’m going cold
Forget what you think you know
All things will come and go
All things will come and go
Love doesn’t matter
It’s all about romance
Maybe I was someone else
Maybe you were someone else
Will you make a killing
Amputate the fairy tale
Well I never made that call
Well I never made that call
I swear I’m gonna make you mine
Be the things that you think shine
So tell me everything is fine
Smother the nightmares in your mind and
All of these things
Will soon unwind
We unwind

When I'm Gone
03:54

Hey
Cleared my name
You wrote the words to the song I sang
And then
I got bored
In the cage so you made moving pictures in my frame
And I can’t stay here all night
And then you say I’ll be alright
Something happens when I’m gone
Tell me you don’t hear me go
Cause I’d really like to know
I’d really like to know
Something changes when I’m here
Tell me you’re as you appear
Cause I’d really like to know
I’d really like to know
Borne
Without grace
Ran from your voice in my mind for days
And made
Up my face
He was a charming man, until he went and aged
And I don’t know why I’m here
Just show me what you hold dear
Oh my dear
You know where to find me
You know how to take me out
You know where to sell me
You know how to buy me out
You got me figured out
You got me figured out
Tell me all of the things I won’t believe
Tell me more, more, and more
Cause I can’t sleep

Real Real Human

I’m like a real real human
I drive my car
And I get to work
I’m like a real real human
I’ve sung the blues, I’ve been in love
And I dance!
Stuck in my head
Here to stay until I’m dead
Man, I’ve tried to be the boy in blue
I swear I’m gonna get through this
Yeah I’m gonna gonna get this through
Memorize my lines
Keep me up to date
Eyes, eyes, eyes
She is everything
When you tell it to me
Tell it to me
Tell it to me
I was a daisy
Now I’m kinda hazy
Am I going crazy
When I keep you on my mind?
I’m in a bad, bad day dream
Faces of glass surround me
Call the wedding off
I feel better, better, better in my new new shoes
They’re made of lead
Good to drop me in the Seine
If I’ve done crimes,
The good ones make me dive
I’m getting good at this New Speak
I get better at it every time
Keep it all in line, you’ve got me staying alive
Got me stayin’ alive

I’ll eat dead things again
I can’t change the way I feel
I’ll be your thief again
Like an animal, I’m real
I think you’re everything
You’re everything
You’re everything
Live like there’s nothing more
There’s nothing more
There’s nothing more
Cut like a razorblade
There is no way to quit
Tear the pictures on your bed
Spill like novocaine
The dirt in my nails makes you sing
I dream of nothing now
Of nothing now
Of nothing now
Live like forever more
Forever more
Forever more
Cut like a razorblade
I’m at the end again
Fall to pieces in the rain
This is permanent
You know I don’t know real pain
Cut like a razorblade

Seance

I’m a stranger
These streets are foreign
I have never been this lost in translation
I’m a blank slate
Do you want to make me?
I’d settle in your neon sign
I don’t feel
I don’t feel like I did
You’d make me real
You’d make me real if I had my way
I’m a dog
run from the death cars
Would you run away with me?
The garden
With the blue veins
The phantoms in the dark that wait
This is the place that I have saved
This is the place that I have saved
I don’t feel
I don’t feel like I did
You’d make me real
You’d make me real if I had my way

I know that if I breathe
I won’t disappear
And I know if I believe
That this is entertaining
To be one of the freaks
Isn’t that much fun
To be one of the freaks
To be the only one
I was meant to be (I’m fascinated)
I was meant to be (I’m fascinated)
And it was all the rage
In the technicolored age
And I saw it in your face
I guess I listened too much
To music and to radio
The little things begin to show
Sleeping behind an old window
I watched you from a cold shadow
I was meant to be (I’m fascinated)
I was meant to be (I’m fascinated)
Fascination (I’m fascinated)
Fascination (I’m fascinated)
