- 07. Lovers
She shivers in the rain
It's the capital connecting with her veins
Stepping under statues and on trains
Till we are under covers
She giggles like a child
With no sign of all the tension in her life
It's written on her T-shirt and in her eyes
- Autograph
And the morning comes with coffee we can share
And the smell of cigarettes is in your hair
There's the sound of shouts outside the hotel room
Like the night before when cameras flattered you
And if we don't have a future
If our lives split like shattered bits of glass
And if we don't have a future
- Beautiful Pain
Beautiful Pain
I'm shaking and aching and talking to the sky
And I shiver in the night but I can't sleep
You're dark as the mascara that drips down from your eyes
Look what you've done to me
You're as dark as the ocean, as cold as the rain
- Because You're Worthless
We live in a climate of greed
We live under the clouds of envy
We live in the shadow of the pricing gun
All around us actors and models order us to buy this and live like that
They remind us that if we don't possess more our lives are empty
That we are basically worthless beyond the value of the numbers in our bank accounts
That we are here just to accumulate
That the purpose of our very existence is to consume
- Break Away
And this world is just atoms, spinning slowly
Other people are shadows, lost and lonely
But they're giving us rules to follow
And they're giving us lies to swallow
Let's break away tonight
There's a place where we can meet
Let's slip into the night
- Fallen Idol
Eyes that stare through television
Intermission in his mind
Where there once was such ambition
Blared like a bass line when the bass line's right
Shame he's just this fallen idol
Shattered like some broken glass
Shame he's just this fallen idol
- Imperfection
You grow your nails too long
There's scratches on your arms
You taste like orange chocolate
You always put your hands in my pockets
Your teeth are not quite straight
Your mood swings oscillates
Your language is appalling
- Refugees
You are the dust and
I am the rain
Let's go out in the rust and
Let's gather the change
Let's take to the streets
You and I we're life's refugees
But like Bonnie and Clyde we're free
- Song For The Migrant Worker
We hide in your shadows,
you don't know our names as we take you trays,
And we don't seem to matter
with our straightened hair and our vacant stare,
We are clumsy, we are strange,
We are jealous, we are plain,
We're the shit that stains your daisy chain,
- Southern Rain
Fall southern rain
Through my fingers, through my veins
Fall southern rain
And wash her away
Fall on this empty man
Drip like nails through my hands
Fall southern rain
