Oh-Oh!
How I miss all of my false prophet whisperings
My lost love
My lost muses!
Oh-Oh!
Now I'm sinking in the weight of all my youth
When it's gone, where does it go?
Alright?!
Boys and girls sleep-walking in their underwear
Tugging at our birth-skins
We put flowers in our hair
Jumping off that cross, reciting all our midnight psalms
Jesus spits out moonbeams
When we wake up it's all gone
I am the slave-pull tide
Captive to the phosphor moon ignite
And if my horoscope is right
The black hole in my heart explodes
We'll dance around the light
Alright!
No more Mrs.
No more Mr's
Sunday school, or nuclear winters
No black books to keep us
Prisoners!
All our words, our songs will lift us up!

End-Times Blues

Got a message on string-tied cans
A dispatch from the sky
"Oh my God, the world is ending again!"
We're digging tunnels through ancient maps
'Til we fall off the edge
And get lost on other planets
We sit on out parents roofs
Watch it all come unglued
We spread new ideas!
We build all new rooms!
Live transmit broadcast
"End-Times Blues"
I grind my teeth until their sand
I part the sea with both my hands
You broke up
(but) they can't change Us

Creation Myth

Too blue ocean toys and sparkling guitars
Hid in a psychic garage, behind the radiant star
Hidden in the shadows
Nurse of day
There is no increase
And there is no decay
(doot doot dum dum)
A mansion of voices
The choir of lonely churches sing
Angels weep when they hear
We are made of all their tears
Keep coming to your home when your alone
Tossing rocks at your window
We think fast but we move slow
We bend and break
Sinner song you've taken me
Up and o'er the cherry tree
Blossom kiss and swallowed key
Secret bliss, infinity
I'm not like them, I'm not like that
I'm no burned Rome, I'm your advocate
Sinner song you've taken me
Up and o'er the cherry tree
Blossom kiss and swallowed key
Secret bliss, infinity

Desperation wolves
In a victim daze
We all laid to rest
We all laid to waste
In a gauze of tangled starlight
Honey seeped out holes in your side
These are desperate times
These are desperate days
We all laid to rest
We all laid to waste
We want to be like the sunrise
Beacon flames, the glare in God's eyes
And the Sun dripped all around You
I go running with my vials
Can you guess the weight of all things we're made of?
How much does it cost to tell a lie?
Can you guess the weight of all things we're made of?
All the bones exhumed with every sigh?
I know I'm real;
It's matter that I can't identify
These are desperate times
These are desperate days
We all laid to rest
How long will we wait?
Can you guess the weight of all things we're made of?
How much does it cost to tell a lie?
Can you guess the weight of all things we're made of?
All the bones exhumed with every sigh?
I know I'm real;
It's matter that I can't identify
In the dark of night the stars spelled out your name
When I blink my eyes everything's erased
The sky was open wide, the stars were flicker flames
I imagine God exactly like your face
