Track Name: Lebensraum (a song for martyrs)
this is how the west was won
at the barrel
of a gun
and
it was traded for trinkets,
it was coughed into blankets

We're so poisonous, aren't we?

I was brought in by a cop
the enforcer
of the laws
that
bring Us to Our knees,
make manifest Our
pre-destinies

it seems so treasonous to Me

so We put Our faith in medicine
and the scientific method
the order of operations
to draw the right conclusions

infinitude wants all
the void don't care at all
it's god's wet dream
the big sleep
and our chemicals

I want what's more than human
all My wisdom's gone
My misled passions
everything's all wrong
the drugs We take
wear off before long
that rebel fashion
nothing means a lot

I love nothing but My own dead heart
I love nothing 'cept perfect dark
Our tears rust tin like wet shooting stars
rogue comets come to blow Us apart
Track Name: Bad Dreams
I drink right out of the spigot
On the lawn of teenage charm and hypocrisy
and at age 23, I am convinced, it never leaves you

all My bad dreams just came true

And every night We sleep in separate beds
And every morning seems polite
it never ends

some days I think my brain's a waste of space,
it can not destroy or create anything
just when you think You're smart,
the world will break Your heart
You see the hurt in everything

And every night We sleep in separate beds
And every morning seems polite
it never ends

all My bad dreams just came true
Track Name: American Haikus
I don't mean to be so doom and gloom
silly kid, You don't exist
drugs and Husker Du
won't save You, or any of Your friends

authors of north american haikus
ask Ourselves,
"What would Jack do"
it can feel so good
to break the rules, once in a while

someday You'll see,
that there's nothing
more to Me
how did We ever fall in love?
I don't know.

if You wanna go
You can jump right out that window
You could load a gun
bet You've got a number of reasons

like James Dean,
the grease on our cheeks turns to blood
on the street
it's a lusty, teenage fantasy
and I'm glad! I'm ecstatic!

in time You'll find
all that hopin', and all that prayin'
just kept You waiting
for the next big thing
but it never came

if You wanna go
You can jump right out that window
You could load a gun
bet You've got a number of reasons

if You wanna go
if You wanna
the moon will bleach Our bones
We'll pretend that Rael loves Us
