- 4am And The Photoproof
I walk lonely in the city
Licking at last night's lips
Like wounds that bleed the weekend
You stick on the backs of my lids, like modelglue
I'm snapping; I'll lie I didn't mean a word of it
You can't break what bends
Open doors and limbs
Sprawled across the foot of the bed
- Bez, Knows The Score
Rosey-cheeked
Checkered black & blue
Hes jumping hoops through the rings you ran around him
Sweating kerosene
Remembering how you set the sky alight
My scuffed knees deep in tragedy
And theres one boy left that treads the thought
That youd still waste your time on him
- Curtain Calls On Walkabouts
I wished away the bloody nose
Covered up the bruises
Sure I have my doubts but fathers so proud
He pats me on the back and sits me down
Says good boy, you blew them out all by yourself
The school-yards changing,
(keep you blurry)
- Fever Dreams
Oh welcome it's a carnival in me, so clown around.
These words are battle scarred like marines, so load out.
Say he's the kind of kid that do's like he dont's-
and my bucket list is full of sick now.
In my dreams I saw waves of filthy hands crash down on me,
Rejoicing.
- Like Clockwork
Round the clock
we’re bright eyed and loose like dogs
on evenings like this
when the back of my head’s leaking
no the stereo’s not bringing me down
Touch down, take off again
spinning circles
- My Penrose Stairs
If I don't wake in the morning
Write I'd never slept a night alone,
In arial on my headstone
Recast me for my own parts
I'm an atom off a star
In the limelight sipping a Daiquiri
I need change, I need change
- Pandemonium
I'm humming love in key with a lockjaw.
My head's beating 4/4 on their front doors.
Did they want me dead or alive?
I got it covered, I'll have both down by midnight.
Crawl through customs with my penance and my passport-
or blow a line like a runaway and take off.
- Weekends
Tonight got a little crazy.
It got a little 'hey I don't recall a thing'.
If I take another sip of gin and cherry coke I think I'll be sick.
I don't care it was all for the summer.
I'm illiterate in love but fluent with a zipper.
I can be the bull.
Tonight can be the china.
If you're gonna stall step on the gas.
