What lies behind the black of your eyes What lies in your two hands What lies behind the black of your eyes What lies in your two hands Hair so black it's shining blue Can't stop looking towards you Embody what I can't have Pleasure just because I can Incarnate what I can't have Pleasure pouring from your hands I will take my time with you You will always be my baby Maybe we should take it slow In my mouth is where you could be It's not a lie if it's not told You will always be You will always be You will always be You will always be You will always be

I like the way you lean on the wall The way that your words almost fall Right of out your mouth And maybe this is nothing But I am feeling something And the store is always closed When I need it most You don't know me Like I know you Want to know me And maybe I could get around To the other end of town Cause I know that you'll be there I know that you'll be there I just can't see this through Lying face to face with you Tell me why it won't work And I'll tell you why it won't work You don't know me Like I know you Want to know me Don't you believe that the rest is up to me? You feel it in your heart You can't stop what you start I won't believe it's a family recipe You've been drinking from the well You've been drinking, I could tell! Aren't you cold with your pockets full of snow? You blow just like the wind Losing trace of your true friends I won't believe it's a family recipe Was yr dad an alcoholic? A little hyperbolic? I like the way you lean on the wall The way that your words almost fall Right out of your mouth Kiss me on the mouth

Ring 03:34
Looking at the ring on your finger A look too long could cause a disaster We're no longer kids Everything is weird Everyone's got a job to talk about And I don't learn from my mistakes Looking at that ring on your finger Catching the light I'm a bug Racing towards you in the night Who do you remind me of? Join me for a smoke Feel a little different Tell me 'bout your wedding Inch a little closer Ask me for my number (Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring...) (If you want to make a call,) (Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring...) (Please hang up and try again) Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring...) (Hang up) (Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring...) (Hang up) (Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring...) (If you need help hang u-) (Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring...) Allô?

Dr Psych 03:19
Dr Psych! Dr Psych is in the house Won't you let us in? Everything's allowed The way out is in We will answer all your questions And question all your answers: Dr Psych! Dr Psych is in the house Won't you let us in? Everything's allowed The way out is in We will answer all your questions And question all your answers: Dr Psych!

Piri Piri 05:04
Told you they come, Told you they would cum Soldiers in the dark Told you they cum, Soldering my heart Soldiers in the dark Soldering my heart Told you they would come Soldiers in the dark Told you they would come Soldering my heart Told you they would come They'd find you out Tell me what this is all about? Who the hell are you to come in here Try and take the best of my summer years Only you know the truth I'm fighting all the wrong fights Asking me telling me Won't you come home with me tonight Asking me, telling me I'm fighting all the wrong fights Injuries to make clean Won't you come home with me tonight?

Time & Water 04:22
We made a deal Fulfill our desires Now there is a problem: It's only you I desire Nothing separates us We'll find a place In the church parking lot— We'd go to hell for that Nothing separates us! Solid times! Solid time for solitude Solid times! Solid time for solitude Solid times! Solid time for solitude Nothing separates us But time & water Distance is a mother. And your needs you must father Nothing separates us Solid times! Solid time for solitude! Solid times! Solid time for solitude! Solid times! Solid time for solitude! Solid times!

Literally 00:58
You found the one And I'm still looking for shows You're so in love I'm still picking sides Literally There's no effort in the writing I mean everything sincerely From the bottom of my heart That once belonged to you
10.
Whoa Death! I hear you calling Mispronounce my name In the ether sound distorts I hear you calling, though I hear you calling Whoa Death! I hear you weeping Cry my mother's name And then Chaos reigns over My weary weary weary heart, my weary soul Acid on the hillside Psychedelic doom! I've been having mushroom clouds Billow and boom Nuclear nightmares on the news 305 you make me lonely How much have you learned In my absence? There's a storm! My presence washed and worn I am not a visitor anymore.

Behavior 05:45
You're an object A fallacy Of all that lacks you look so Good to me If I was born on a bridge Is that what I will always be? It's midnight My birthday At the bar Blowing candles Making wishes At the bar Closing time Closing time Closing time Closing time Closing time Closing time I can't behave with you around! There you go Such a pro All I want Is a Quick fucking answer Should I behave with you around? It's midnight My birthday At the bar Blowing candles Making wishes At the bar Closing time Closing time Closing time Closing time Closing time Closing time I can't behave with you around! I can't behave with you around! I can't behave with you around! I can't behave with you around! I can't behave with you around! I can't behave with you around! I can't behave with you around! I can't behave with you I can't behave with you I can't behave with you I can't behave with you
