- 01. Darklands
I'm going to the darklands
To talk in rhyme
With my chaotic soul
As sure as life means nothing
And all things end in nothing
And heaven I think
Is too close to hell
- About You
I can see
That you and me
Live our lives in the pouring rain
And the raindrops beat out of time to our refrain
And you and me
Will win you'll see
People die in their living rooms
But they do not need this God almighty gloom
- Almost Gold
You take me here from far
Up to the highest star
You took a part of me
No one else will ever see
And if I gave away
What I am dying to say
- April Skies
Hey honey what you trying to say
As I stand here don’t you walk away
And the world comes tumbling down
Hand in hand in a violent life
Making love on the edge of a knife
And the world comes tumbling down
- Between Planets
Suicide standing sucking in her cheeks
Too much lips and too much eyes
Hasn't slept for weeks
She don't know just where it goes
Jackie T said she saw death
She's done it fifty ways
But she's been off that medicine
- Between Us
Been a lot between us
And I guess there's more to come
We've been doing something right
But sometimes it goes wrong
We've been through places
And we won't be back again
We've been through faces
- Birthday
Everybody loves me goes away
And I'd kill myself if that would make them stay
And I'm drinking to the day that I was made
And I'm sucking on my grown-ups lemonade
Yeah I'm a mean motherfucker now but I once was cool
Yeah I'm a bad motherfucker now but I once was cool
And I was born a long time ago today
- Black
And my mood is black
And my eyes are black
And my life is black
And my love is black
Turn the good thing back
Kiss the good thing back
Make the good thing back
- Bullet Lovers
Black as night black as life
Hungry for some of that easy life
Stoney cold and a twistin' moon
Live it fast you're gonna get there soon
Look out world 'cause we know how to fight
Someone's gonna get shot tonight
- Cherry Came Too
When she walks towards me
I feel something
Crawl beneath my skin
And all the electric stars are shining
Beneath my skin and
Cherry takes me to the place above
With barbed wire kisses and her love
We’re going where the oceans blue
- Coast to Coast
Feels like something pumping through my veins
I got the junk gun fever sinking to my brain
Feels like God in heaven's gone insane
I got a cat scratch engine takes me on the road
Wheels get rolling back to the world I know
Takes me just as far as I can go
- Cracking Up
Some said I was a freak
I am a freak
They said I was weak
I am a freak
They said I was in-com-plete
I am a freak
I am a freak
- Cut Dead
What can I do
It's gotten me beaten black and blue
Why don't you know
You got me moving much too slow
Why can't you see
You got me chasing honey bees
You made me fall
Broke me up and took it all
- Degenerate
I was a car smash
She was a car smash
We did the car crash
I said the police
I kiss the police
I killed the police man
- Down On Me
sometimes i can fake a smile
but still the world looks down on me
twenty five years of growing old
it just hangs infront of me
i can't see or understand why
pushing up can drag me down
take my time in everything
it breaks me up if i cant sing
- Drop
The way you drop is like a stone
Making out you're flying
But you've just been thrown
Till kingdom comes
And through bitten tongues
These eyes get stung
With every curse that's sung
- Everybody I Know
Too long I have been a slave
Kissing dirt for what I crave
Too long I have been a liar
Too long I had fun with fire
Ghost of people I have been
Turn around and shout obscene
Ghost of things I've said and done
- Fall
Fall to my bended knees
Shoving up till I freeze
Falling on down to you
Down, down, down
So choked up in the dust
Hand held holy lust
Dragging me to her cross
- Far Gone And Out
I can't explain exactly what I'm doing standing in the rain
Don't do it for fun
Do it if you feel it
Kiss it on the tongue
I'm taking my thoughts to a railway station
Put 'em on a train just to see what's coming back
What's coming back
It's coming like a heart attack
- God Help Me
God help me through this day
God please help me through this day
I'm blind can't see the way
God please help me through this day
I can't take it
I just can't take it anymore
- Halfway To Crazy
Crazy I'm halfway to crazy
Suicide could save me
Oh is that much too extreme
It's such a sad and sorry scene
Lovers tongue tied
And tied to the tongue
Making deals going bad by the dawn
- Happy Place
I'm going back to the happy place
All my life I've lived to taste
Someone else's flavors on my tongue
Cherry take me back to the start of it all
Where everyone's up then everyone falls
Almost could destroy me with her kiss
- Happy When It Rains
Step back and watch the sweet thing
breaking everything she sees
she can take my darkest feeling
tear it up till i'm on me knees
plug into her electric cool
where things bend and break
and shake to the rule
talking fast couldn't tell me something
- Head On
As soon as I get my head around you
I come around catching sparks off you
I get an electric shock from you
This secondhand living just won't do
And the way I feel tonight
I could die and I wouldn't mind
And there's something going on inside
Makes you wanna feel
- Heat
If I could live for 100 years
Still I couldn't understand my fears
Never had the time or an easy ride
Kicking up the noise of a suicide
And I see the heat coming down
Heat coming round feels like I'm coming on
Seen what I've seen and it's gone
But I don't know
- Here Comes Alice
Here she comes, walk' down the street
She's got something you'd love to meet
It's her heart and her heart is black
Think of ice cream sliding into a crack
The heat sticks to summer's heavy sweat
Hang around it'll get hotter yet
You got the shakes and it's gonna get worse
- I Love Rock 'N' Roll
I had trouble but I found my star
I found myself an electric guitar
Well I was some kind of messed up kid
Now look what you did, look what you did
You made me, yeah, you make me, yeah
Well, I'm not preaching or making a case
I'm not trying to make the world a better place
Well I ain't evil, but I ain't good
- I Love Rock N Roll
I had trouble but I found my star
I found myself an electric guitar
Well I was some kind of messed up kid
Now look what you did
Look what you did
You made me, yeah
You make me, yeah
- In A Hole
grass grows greener
on the other side
corn grows sweeter
on the other side
and I watch, and I watch, and I watch
and I see too much
and I broke my face
and my head grows too much
- Inside Me
I take my time away
And I see something
And that's my story
And I see something
This takes me back again
And drops me so
This takes me back again
And drops me so far safe
- It's So Hard
It's so hard
To get love
Jump and push and shove
To get the hand in glove
So it seems
That things are in your dreams
So it's said
Things get done in bed
- Just Like Honey
Listen to the girl
As she takes on half the world
Moving up and so alive
In her honey dripping beehive
Beehive
Its good, so good, its so good
So good
- Just out of Reach
Take a walk, to the beach
Take a walk, back to the sea
Take a walk with me, back to the beach
I take a walk with you, just out of reach
Just out of reach
Just out of reach
Just out of reach
Just out of reach
- Man On The Moon
Come visit soon
Sure gets lonely living here on the moon
I've got a tale to tell
About my planetary prison cell
We could shoot the breeze
Go out walking in the godless freeze
I've got a mind to kill
But there's no people here so it's no thrill
- Mushroom
When I saw, sky's were red
I was born and I was dead
When I saw her mushroom hair
I was born and I was dead
When I saw her mushroom hair
I was born and I was dead
I gotta keep my distance
I gotta keep my distance
- My Little Underground
Running away, I got something to say
You're in my way, so goodbye yesterday
I'm gonna run and find a place where I can hide
Somewhere that no one knows, someplace that no one goes
So don't you look for me, I'll be where you can't see
Somewhere I can't be found, my little underground
- My Little Underground 1985
Running away, I got something to say
You're in my way, so goodbye yesterday
I'm gonna run and find a place where I can hide
Somewhere that no one knows, someplace that no one goes
So don't you look for me, I'll be where you can't see
Somewhere I can't be found, my little underground
- Never Understand
The sun comes up another day begins
And I don't even worry about the state I'm in
Head so heavy and I'm looking thin
But when the sun goes down I wanna start again
You never understand me
You never understand me
Yeah
- On The Wall
Unlike the mole
I'm not in a hole
And I can't see anyway
Just like a doll
I am one foot tall
But dolls can't see anyway
The frozen stare
The clothes and hair
- Psycho Candy
The wind is screaming around the trees for my psycho candy
The world is spread a strange disease from my
Psycho candy
Candy is the baddest seed
She'll take you down and make you eat
Her fish
Her poison fish
Is on your dish
- Psychocandy
The wind is screaming around the trees for my Psychocandy
The world is spreading a strange disease for my
Psychocandy
Candy is the baddest seed
She'll take you down and make you eat
Her fish
Her poison fish
Is on her dish
- Psychocandy 1985

- Reverence
I wanna die just like Jesus Christ
I wanna die on a bed of spikes
I wanna die come see paradise
I wanna die just like Jesus Christ
I wanna die just like JFK
I wanna die on a sunny day
I wanna die just like JFK
- Rollercoaster
Why keep in touch with my crimes?
'Cause I left it far behind
Out of sight and out of mind
Down the gutter in the drain
Back to wherever they came
Don't put me down
- Shimmer
Conceals a thin disguise
If pleasure is my prize
There's pain in paradise
She makes the rivers flow
She looks into my soul
Destruction sets us free
From this forbidden tree
So I don't care
- Sidewalking
Chilled to the bone and five miles to home
I'm messing in the dark and feeling all alone
I got ice in my fire got the heat in my wire
Inject a little heat i'm burning up the tyres
Sidewalking
Talking like i'm on and i'm the only one
I'm making like i'm done and staring like a gun
Sidewalking
- Silverblade
Talking 'bout the things I lack
Choke me up with what I say
Shouting out for something
Standing up for nothing
She's looking down but I just couldn't wait
Looks real tough when she talks that stuff
And cries for another day
Looks real mean when she hits that scene
- Snakedriver
I've got syphilitic hetro friends in every part of town
I don't hate them but I know them I don't want them hanging around
I won't roll my bones for every little girl who gets on down
I got space and space got me I should be selling it by the pound
Ever since I heard the voice I thought I had no choice but then I kissed her
I don't mind if I get broken I don't mind if I get fixed
I don't mind if I'm not spoken I don't mind if I get kicks
If I wake up dead I'll wake up just like any other day
- Some Candy Talking
I'm going down to the place tonight
To see if I can get a taste tonight
A taste of something warm and sweet
That shivers your bones and rises to your heat
I'm going down to the place tonight
The damp and hungry place tonight
Should all the stars shine in the sky
- Something I Can't Have
You're in my house, you're in my face
You made me hate the human race
I got it good, I got it strong
I got it down where it belongs
Aw, it's sick and, oh, it's sad
I think you're something I can't have
- Something's Wrong
Another day goes by me
Another day of life without you
And I look around me
I feel so lonely, there's no one here
No one here beside me
No one here to help to see me through
To see me through, to see me through
- Sometimes
Kid's got something keeps it well hid
One of these days I'm gonna shake off the lid
Dig beneath the dirt maybe scrape beneath the skin
It's getting so bad I think I'd die to get in her
Sometimes you just can't get enough
I got the feeling that I've been here before
I'm on my knees and I'm kissing the floor
I got the feeling that I've crashed in a car
- Sometimes Always
I gave you all I had
I gave you good and bad
I gave but you just threw it back
I won't get on my knees
Don't make me do that please
I've been away but now I'm back
- Sowing Seeds
I see people going down
All gods people going down
And I should not be alone
And I should be on my phone
Yes I should be on my phone
Yes I should be on my phone
I'll go where that apple goes
- Subway
Some kind of people don't understand
I've got to turn to the sun
I've got the upper hand
When the world turns around
It turns it turns for you
I guess a whole lotta loving
Don't mean a thing
- Surfin' USA
written by Berry/Wilson
If everybody had an ocean
Across the USA
Then everybody'd be surfin'
Like Californi-a
You'd seem 'em wearing their baggies
? too
Everybody's gone surfin'
- Swing
I wish that you and me would be
Inside of a rubber dream
I wish we'd walk and I wish we'd swing
Down to the sunshine thing
I got you and I want my head
I look like I come in death
I don't doubt your word
I don't doubt your word
- Take It
Sung by Jim
She could take my time and that's okay
You got to get right down and show me what's the way
I got what she gives me and that's okay
Shake up baby and wake up to what is real
Stand up tall to shout out what she feels
What she don't she don't have time to steal
- Taste of Cindy
Crack of dawn
Cindy's movin' on
Talking Cindy to everyone
Until she's had her fun
Betwixt the sun and sea
Still she's talking to everyone
Cindy's had her fun
- Taste The Floor
It's too cool
To get something done
Too many things move fast
I can't quite get a grip at last
And all the stars don't shine
And all the stars don't shine
And all the walls fall down
And all the fish get drowned
- Teenage lust
Little skinny girl she’s doing it for the first time
Little skinny girl she’s doing it and it feels fine
She’s taking hold and I’m holding on
Holding on and my sense is gone
I got it you got it she’s got it
She’s taking hold of her sins now
For the first time
Well she’s been told about sins now
- The Hardest Walk
I never thought that this day would ever come
When your words and your touch just struck me numb
Oh and it's plain to see that it's dead
The thing swims in blood and it's cold stoney dead
It's so hard not to feel ashamed
Of the loving living games we play
Each day
- The Living End
I get ahead on my motorbike
I get ahead on my motorbike
I feel so quick in my leather boots
I feel so quick in my leather boots
My mood is black when my jacket's on
My mood is black when my jacket's on
And I'm in love with myself
And I'm in love with myself
- Till It Shines
Come, come and dry your eyes
Before the morning sun arrives
Kiss, everybody is a star
No matter who or what they are
I could tell the truth but what's the use
It's been abused by us
Junk the junk love the love
- Tumbledown
She's a kick I couldn't miss
Couldn't miss her little twist
Get it on and get it good
Couldn't guess she ever would
Took up time and took up space
She exists outside my space
All I wanted was too much
All I wanted was to touch
- Upside Down
We're moving 'round and 'round
Can't hear a single sound
And when I hit the ground
I heard a ringing sound
Uh-huh-huh
I heard a ringing sound
And my head hit the ground
Uh-huh-huh
- UV Ray
There's treasure in the pit of the hideous sin
Unpeel ice cool velvet skin
Junk eats trash in a chemical kiss
T.V poison tastes like this
Broken down jesus with the taste of trash
Ice cool hip swinger moves too fast
Tear stained nightmares in the cold light of day
Sick sick nightmares just won't go away
- Walk And Crawl
Dawn's cracking through
Became black into the blue
You can't walk
You can't take
I'm gonna sit right down and brake
Everything
That she said
- Who Do You Love
I walked 47 miles of barbed wire,
Used a cobra snake for a neck tie.
Got a brand new house on the roadside,
Made out of rattlesnake hide.
I got a brand new chimney made on top,
Made out of human skulls.
Now come on darling let's take a little walk, tell me,
Who do you love,
- Why'd You Want Me
Why'd you care why'd you want me there
Why'd you sin why did you let me in
I got no shoes I've always got the blues
I gave myself to drink and drugs and filth
Why'd you care why'd you want me there
I see the gloom and doom in every room
You see the light in every darkened night
So why'd you care why'd you want me there
- Wish I Could
We were searching for a fire
And we settled for a spark
Sparks glow like stars in the dark
Of course they do just like you
And I wish that I could fall for you
Yeah I wish that I could fall for you
Yeah I wish that I could fall
- You Trip Me Up
Sometimes
I walk sideways
To avoid you
When I've annoyed you
Love's like
The mighty ocean
When it's frozen
