Twilight to Starlight
Where boys fear to tread
candy cane walks down to build a bonfire to break my fall my baby, my sweet thing just maybe we could lose ourselves this time king of the horseflies, dark prince of death his tragic forces are heaven sent in sweet things, in lovers breath in knowing that was meant to be the last a go- go kids, a go- go style a suck suck kiss, a suck suck suck smile as always, in young need a veiled promise never to die on dead highways, her black beauties roam for june angels, so far from home a love lost, a faded picture to tread lightning, to ink the lavendar skies so get on the bomb get back where you belong
Bodies
cast the pearls aside, of a simple life of need come into my life forever the crumbled cities stand as known of the sight you've been shown of the hurt you call your own love is suicide the empty bodies stand at rest casualties of their own flesh afflicted by their dipossesion nut no bodies ever knew nobodys no bodies felt like you nobodys love is suicide now we drive the night, the ironies of peace you can't help deny forever the tragedies reside in you the secret sights hide in you the lonely nights divide you in two all my blisters now revealed in the darknees of my dreams in the spaces in between us but no bodies eber knew nobodys no bodies felt like you nobodys love is suicide
Thirty-Three
speak to me in a language i can hear humour me begor i have to go deep in thought i forgive everyone as the cluttered streets greet me once again i know i can't be late, supper's waiting on the table tomorrow's just an excuse away so i pull my collar up and face the cold, on my own the earth laughs beneath my heavy feet in the blasphamy in my heavy walk steeple guide me to my heat and home the sun is out and up and down again i know i'll make it love can last forever graceful swans of never topple to the earth and you can make it last, forever you you can make it last, forever you and for the moment i lose myself wrapped up in all the pleasures of the world i've journeyed here and there and back again but in the same old haunts i still find my friends mysteries not ready to reveal sympathies i'm ready to return i'll make the effort, love can last forever graceful swans of never topple the earth tomorrow's just an excuse and you can make it last, forever you
In the arms of sleep
sleep will not come for this tired body now peace will not come to this lonely heart there are some things i'll live without but i want you to know that i need you right now i need you tonight i steal a kiss from her sleeping shadow moves cause i'll always miss her wherever she goes and i'll always need her more than she could ever need me i need someone to ease my mind but sometimes a someone is hard to find and i'll do any thing to keep her tonight and í'll say anything to make her feel alright and i'll be anything to keep her here tonight cause i was you to stay with me i need you tonite she comes to me like an angel out of time as i play the part of saint on my knees there are some things i'll live without but i want you to know that i need you right now suffer my desire suffer my desire suffer my desire for you
1979
shakedown 1979, cool kids never have the time on a live wire right up off the street you and i should meet junebug skipping like a stone with the headlights pointed at the dawn we were sure we'd never see an end to it all and i don't even care to shake these zipper blues and we don't know just where our bones will rest to dust i guess forgotten and absorbed into the earth below double cross the vacant and bored they're not sure just what we have in store morphine city slippin dues down to see that we don't even care as restless as we are we feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts and poured cement, lamented and assured to the lights and towns below faster than the speed of sound faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope justine never knew the rules hung down with the freaks and the gouls no apologies ever need be made, i know you better than you fake it to see that we don't even care these zipper blues and we don't even know just where our bones will rest to dust i guess forgotten and absorbed into the earth below the street heats the urgency of sound as you can see there's no one around
Tales of a scorched earth
farewell goodnight last one out turn out the lights and let me be, let me die inside let me know the way from this world of hate in you cause the dye is cast, and the bitchis back and we're all dead, yeah we're all dead inside the future of a shattered past i'll lie just to be real and i'd die just to feel why do the same old things keep happening? because beyond my hopes there are no feelings bless the maryrs and kiss the kids for knowing better, for knowing this cause your all the whores and i'm a fag and i've got no mother and i've got no dad to save me the wasted, save me from myself i lie just to be real, and i'd die just to feel why do the same old things keep happening? cause beyond my hopes there are no feelings everybody's lost just waiting to be found everyones thought just waiting to fade so fuck it all cause i don't care so what somehow somewhere we dared to try to dare for a little more i lie just to be real, and i'd die just to feel why do the same old things keep happening? because beyond my hopes there are no reason
Thru the eyes of ruby
wrap me up in always your innocence is treasure your innocence is death your innocence is all i have breathing under water, and living under glass and if you spin your love around the secrets of your dreams you may find your love is gone and is not quite what it seemed to appear to dissappear beneath all your darkest fears i believe in never, i believe in all the way but belief is not to notice, belief is just some faith and faith can't help you to escape and with this ring i wed thee true and with this ring i wed thee now and with this ring i play so dead but no one's asking for the truth, so let me tell you if you spin your love around the secrets of your dreams you may find you love is gone and is not quite what it seemed to appear to disappear beneath all your darkest fears to the revelations of fresh faced youth no one will come to save you so speak your peace in the murmurs drawn but youth is wasted on the young your strenth is my weakness, your weakness is my hate my love for you just can't explain why we're forever frozen, forever beautiful forever lost inside ourselves the night has come to hold us young.
