You stab my heart and you stab my brain
You make me run like a refugee
There was safety by the sea
But now it's just a war and oh that's sorry
If you had it black and white
Like a camera in the night
If your really saw the funerals of the dusty light
And all the Draculas with their fangs in their tongues
I''ll remember to think of you as your America breaks down
Direct my heart and your in my brain
I get this feeling like atomic rays
There was safety by the seas
But now your just a war and that's sorry
If you had it black and white
Like a camera in the night
If your really saw the funerals of the dusty light
And all the Draculas with their fangs in their tongues
I''ll remember to think of you as your America breaks down

Hide under your sheets and I'll be there soon
To hang 100 crucifixes upside down in your room
Dress you in flowers and put you away
And paint on your walls a picture a day
The first of the frost it's all in your hands
And your stories and memories have all run dry
Oh drink from my cup it will turn you around
As I lead you to the old shallow ground
Its there that I want you by the riverside
It's there that I want you
She cried up to Jesus she cried down to hell
But the wind took her prayers her spirit and her smell
The wind whistled east and the wind whistled west
And swirled up the leaves round her cold screaming chest
Its there that I want you by the riverside
It's there that I want you
My lady my lady you sank so low
Now I must give you the black waters below
My worship my worship I beat her red
And in the cold wicked moonlight all the stars went dead
Its there that I want you by the riverside
It's there that I want you

The Followup

You feel so crazy and you feel so low
It's like your dead on the streets below
No one to signal and no where to roam
You want a party out like you did the streets
Up there like a big fat ten
And all the flowers lay around your room
Just say your sorry its not your way
And in your heart and it burns and it burns and it burns but now its taking an arctic turn
You go from door to door and it's always so safe
You realize that it's all so cruel
You find a match and try to to shine your shoes
You feel so deadly in a public place
You and analyze it and stay up for days
You've been round these floors before
On hands and knees looking under every door
And when you strike it its just one more
It always comes back to the rooftops strutter with the stars
Looking down
All over town
And you feel so cheap
You like it up there with your Arctic scream
And all the sexuals by the ways kept it going till the sun caught blaze
You've been up and down 1000 floors
You've been through each and every door
You've been to sea and adjust the stars
You've been in and out so lets forget where you are
You wake up like an animals in chains
And you feel so cheap you wear your dreams tonight
Wake up and then it makes no sense
It's like it happened like an accident
The flowers sour lay around the spoon
I need a silent drug
I need a silent truth

Tattoo on your shoulder getting great exposure of the gray eyed girls
Drinking gin and wine dancing in a line with their ponytails
Dress me up in leather get me as high as a feather and I'll say hello
Pour some wine on my mind and I'm ready to go
Until I come down
In the great white taxi on the loop getting lost in the sound
Take me home
I need to lay my head down
And just wait for the night to come around
And just wait for the night to come around
Ya ya ya
Jimmy's in the back, kbs in the Saab
Mickey's in the toilet banging on a star
Zombie's in the lobby talking supersonic
Calling all the flunkys to a Saturday hollow
Burnsy's got my back you know he will attack
We'll be dead in the morning but them we'll be right back
Pour some wine on my mind and I'm ready to go
Until I come down
In the great white taxi on the loop getting lost in the sound
Take me home
I need to lay my head down
And just wait for the night to come around
And just wait for the night to come around
Ya ya ya
You got it, you got it, if you want it
You can grab it, you can have it
Close your eyes you won't wait awhile
Just pour some wine on my mind and I'm ready to go

Her Refinery Towers

Feel your way home by the light of a phone
March through weeds by the tracks
By the sea, by the stacks
It's there in their eyes
So deep in the fires
Of the stumbling skies
Her refinery towers
It's there in my brain
Since the first taste of rain
There on the road
Only love gets you home
It's there in their eyes
So deep in the fires
Of the stumbling skies
Her refinery towers
Monday morning takes
The blood from the days
And feeds me blood again
In machinery, in the head
It's there in their eyes
So deep in the fires
Of the stumbling skies
Her refinery towers

Kind And True

From the city to the village
To the cross to the fields
I see you in lights everywhere I go
From the deserts to the streets of Ohio
In the winds of change you scream for oxygen
And the World's gone crazy and you feel like a daisy
In my arms I'm coming back again
Takes me to the last time when we shared our souls
Out in the grass beneath the wave of the doves
Little one I'm a buckeye when I'm with you
So tell me once about your hidden love
You come easy there and I won't push and shove
Just as long as your kind and true
So let's go away to a place in the sun
In the fields we are one
You will never be alone
In the dark I will stand with you
So come on with me now
You can act like a child
Like two shiny baseballs your eyes say hello
Sing along if your kind and and true
Oh so far away amongst the universe decay
Amongst the blackness of our days
Amongst the lazy pouring rain
You're all the ways as long as your our kind
So shout shout shout and I'll be there
You can wear my underwear
Anytime anyplace even New York Square
Oh I just want to stay
Like the blueness in the sky
From the city to the village
To the cross to the fields
I see you in lights everywhere I go
From the deserts to the streets of Ohio
In the winds of change you scream for oxygen
And the World's gone crazy and you feel like a daisy
In my arms I'm coming back again

Lost Sky

Stone me in the morning
And stone me late at night
Stone me like a window
And leave me at first light
It's in the sun we used to run
We used to dream about tomorrow
Now its all just a job
Just a law, just a crawl
But that's alright
Cause you're here tonight
Deep within the Lost Sky
Your eyes just want to die
And roll onto the table
To free your prison skull
It's in the sun we used to run
We used to dream about tomorrow
Now its all just a job
Just a law, just a crawl
But that's alright
Cause you're here tonight
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
I feel the moon and the sky
I want to drink all its light
Into my brain into my veins
Until I'm alive again
It's in the sun we used to run
We used to dream about tomorrow
Now its all just a job
Just a law, just a crawl
But that's alright
Cause you're here tonight
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah

Cold Black Heart

You got rivers in your veins
You got skies and aeroplanes
You got flowers in your head
And you got pretty words you said
Cold company can weep weep weep
Up this morning cause loves not cheap
Out in the lanes out in the dark
Out in the fires of a cold black heart
Come over here if you have wings
And I will sing you anything
From the bottom of my brain
To six strings on a wooden crate
Cold company can weep weep weep
Up this morning cause loves not cheap
Out in the lanes out in the dark
Out in the fires of a cold black heart
The World's a joke and you know that
Lets make some money in our hat
Before the wind gets cold and dry
I want to be alive when I die
Cold cpmpany can weep weep weep
Up this morning cause loves not cheap
Out in the lanes out in the dark
Out in the fires of a cold black heart
Out in the fires of a cold black heart
Out in the fires of a cold black heart

I love you like the oxygen
I love you like a second skin
I still don't know which way to go
But I know I go with you
I love you like the atmosphere
You help the sky from disappearing
I still don't know which way to go
But I know I go with you
I love you like the oxygen
I love you like my own skin
I still don't know which way to go
But I know I go with you

Blood don't know
Why the cold wind blows
At your door
It wants your core
You and I
Live in a jar
Fill it high
With wine and love
And if you feel like It's all gone astray
Oh and you live in a kind of misery
Go hang your head down low
Go hang your head down low
If you know
Where the poor man toils
And that the rich will dine on your spine
If that old wind should answer me
Tell me hell is where they'll be
And if you feel like It's all gone astray
Oh and you live in a kind of misery
Go hang your head down low
Go hang your head down low
