<strong>Meds </strong></p>
<p>I was alone, falling free<br />
Trying my best not to forget<br />
What happened to us, what happened to me<br />
What happened as I let it slip<br />
I was confused by the powers that be<br />
Forgetting names and faces<br />
Passers by were looking at me<br />
As if they could erase it </p>
<p>Baby, did you forget to take your meds<br />
Baby, did you forget to take your meds </p>
<p>I was alone, staring over the ledge<br />
Trying my best not to forget<br />
All manner of joy, all manner of glee<br />
And our one heroic pledge<br />
How it mattered to us, How would it mattered to me<br />
And the consequences<br />
I was confused by the birds and the bees<br />
Forgetting if I meant it </p>
<p>Baby, did you forget to take your meds<br />
Baby, did you forget to take your meds<br />
Baby, did you forget to take your meds<br />
Baby, did you forget to take your meds </p>
<p>And the sex, the drugs, and the complications<br />
And the sex, the drugs, and the complications<br />
And the sex, the drugs, and the complications<br />
And the sex, the drugs, and the complications </p>
<p>Baby, did you forget to take your meds<br />
Baby, did you forget to take your meds<br />
Baby, did you forget to take your meds<br />
Baby, did you forget to take your meds<br />
Baby, did you forget to take your meds<br />
Baby, did you forget to take your meds </p>
<p>I was alone, falling free<br />
Trying my best not to forget</p>
<p><strong>Infra-red </strong></p>
<p>One last thing before I shuffle off the planet<br />
I will be the one to make you crawl<br />
So I came down to wish you an unhappy birthday<br />
Someone call the ambulance<br />
There&#8217;s gonna be an accident </p>
<p>I&#8217;m coming up on infra-red<br />
There is no running that can hide you<br />
Cause I can see in the dark<br />
I&#8217;m coming up on infra-red<br />
Forget your running<br />
I will find you </p>
<p>One more thing before we start the final face-off<br />
I will be the one to watch you fall<br />
So I came down to crash and burn your beggar&#8217;s banquet<br />
Someone call the ambulance<br />
There&#8217;s gonna be an accident </p>
<p>I&#8217;m coming up on infra-red<br />
There is no running that can hide you<br />
Cause I can see in the dark<br />
I&#8217;m coming up on infra-red<br />
Forget your running<br />
I will find you (I will find you) </p>
<p>[distorted singing] </p>
<p>Someone call the ambulance<br />
There&#8217;s gonna be an accident </p>
<p>I&#8217;m coming up on infra-red<br />
There is no running that can hide you<br />
Cause I can see in the dark<br />
I&#8217;m coming up on infra-red<br />
Forget your running<br />
I will find you<br />
Cause I can see in the dark<br />
I&#8217;m coming up on infra-red<br />
There is no running that can hide you<br />
Cause I can see in the dark<br />
I&#8217;m coming up on infra-red<br />
Forget your running<br />
I will find you<br />
I&#8217;ll find you<br />
I&#8217;ll find you </p>
<p><strong>Drag </strong></p>
<p>You&#8217;re always ahead of the game<br />
I drag behind<br />
You never get caught in the rain<br />
When I&#8217;m drenched to the bone every time<br />
You&#8217;re the first one to swim cross the Seine<br />
I lag behind<br />
You&#8217;re always ahead of the game<br />
While I drag behind </p>
<p>I drag behind<br />
I drag behind<br />
I drag behind<br />
I drag behind </p>
<p>You&#8217;re always ahead of the pack<br />
I drag behind<br />
You possess every trait that I lack<br />
By coincidence or by design<br />
You&#8217;re the monkey I got on my back<br />
That tells me to shine<br />
You&#8217;re always ahead of the pack<br />
While I drag behind </p>
<p>I drag behind (x 8 ) </p>
<p>You&#8217;re always ahead of the rest<br />
When I&#8217;m always on time<br />
You got A&#8217;s on your algebra tests<br />
I failed and they kept me behind<br />
I just gotta get off my chest<br />
That I think you&#8217;re divine<br />
You&#8217;re always ahead of the rest<br />
While I drag behind </p>
<p>I drag behind (x 8 )</p>
<p><strong>Space monkey</strong> </p>
<p>Space monkey in the place to be<br />
Riding in a rocket to a planet of sound<br />
Shooting the moon, playing dominoes in drag<br />
An increase in population of a hundred percent </p>
<p>Space monkey in the place to be<br />
With a chemical peel and a picture of Mary<br />
Out on a limb in the carnival of me<br />
Raising the temperature one hundred degrees </p>
<p>We&#8217;re sown together<br />
She&#8217;s born mesmer<br />
Beside astride her<br />
I die inside her </p>
<p>Space monkey in the place to be<br />
A mass of contradictions in a golden frame<br />
Raising the roof in a calamity way<br />
Completely meretricious of a poke in the eye </p>
<p>Space monkey in the place to be<br />
Talk of the town with a Colombian rock<br />
Out on a limb in the carnival of me<br />
Raising the temperature one hundred degrees </p>
<p>We&#8217;re sown together<br />
She&#8217;s born mesmer<br />
Beside astride her<br />
I die inside her<br />
It&#8217;s far too sacred<br />
Don&#8217;t ever fake it<br />
And don&#8217;t, and don&#8217;t, and don&#8217;t let me down </p>
<p>Like you let me down before<br />
Like you let me down before </p>
<p>Space monkey in the place to be<br />
With some free-association and a hole in her head<br />
Out on a limb in the carnival of me<br />
Raising the temperature one hundred degrees </p>
<p>We&#8217;re sown together<br />
She&#8217;s born mesmer<br />
Beside astride her<br />
I die inside her<br />
It&#8217;s far too sacred<br />
Don&#8217;t ever fake it<br />
And don&#8217;t, and don&#8217;t, and don&#8217;t let me down </p>
<p>Like you let me down before<br />
Like you let me down before<br />
Like you let me down before<br />
Like you let me down before </p>
<p><strong>Follow the cops back home </strong></p>
<p>The call to arms was never true,<br />
Time to imbibe, here&#8217;s to you,<br />
I&#8217;ll tell you stories bruised and blue,<br />
Of drum machines and landslides. </p>
<p>Just one more round before we&#8217;re through,<br />
More psychedelic yuppie flu,<br />
It&#8217;s such a silly thing to do,<br />
And now we&#8217;re stuck on rewind.. </p>
<p>Let&#8217;s follow the cops back home,<br />
Follow the cops back home,<br />
Let&#8217;s follow the cops back home,<br />
And rob their houses. </p>
<p>The call to arms was never true,<br />
Let&#8217;s take a ride and push it through,<br />
Suspended animation glue,<br />
Blame it on apartheid, </p>
<p>Let&#8217;s spend the night in Jimmy Choo&#8217;s,<br />
I&#8217;ll give you coats and cheap shampoo,<br />
I&#8217;ll give you nothing else to do,<br />
And now we&#8217;re stuck on rewind</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s follow the cops back home,<br />
Follow the cops back home,<br />
Let&#8217;s follow the cops back home,<br />
And Rob their houses </p>
<p>Let&#8217;s follow the cops back home<br />
Follow the cops back home<br />
Let&#8217;s follow the cops back home<br />
And rob their houses</p>
<p>The call to arms was never true,<br />
I&#8217;m medicated, how are you?<br />
Let&#8217;s take a dive swim right through,<br />
Sophisticated points of view</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s follow the cops back home<br />
Follow the cops back home<br />
Let&#8217;s follow the cops back home<br />
And Rob their houses</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s follow the cops back home<br />
Follow the cops back home<br />
Let&#8217;s follow the cops back home<br />
And rob their houses</p>
<p><strong>Post blue </strong></p>
<p>It&#8217;s in the water baby<br />
It&#8217;s in the pills that bring you down<br />
It&#8217;s in the water baby<br />
It&#8217;s in your bag of golden brown<br />
It&#8217;s in the water baby<br />
It&#8217;s in your frequency<br />
It&#8217;s in the water baby<br />
It&#8217;s between you and me </p>

It&#8217;s in the pills that pick you up<br />
It&#8217;s in the water baby<br />
It&#8217;s in the special way we fuck<br />
It&#8217;s in the water baby<br />
It&#8217;s in your family tree<br />
It&#8217;s in the water baby<br />
It&#8217;s between you and me </p>
<p>Bite the hand that feeds<br />
Tap the vein that bleeds<br />
Down on my bended knees </p>
<p>I break the back of love for you<br />
I break the back of love for you </p>
<p>I break the back of love for you<br />
I break the back of love for you </p>
<p>It&#8217;s in the water baby<br />

<p>I break the back of love for you<br />
I break the back of love for you</p>
<p><strong>Because I Want You </strong></p>
<p>Fall into you, is all I seem to do<br />
When I hit the bottle<br />
‘Cause I’m afraid to be alone </p>
<p>Tear us in two, is all it seems to do<br />
As the anger fades<br />
This house is no longer a home </p>
<p>Don’t give up on the dream,<br />
Don’t give up on the wanting<br />
And everything that’s true<br />
Don’t give up on the dream,<br />
Don’t give up on the wanting </p>
<p>Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you<br />
Because I want you </p>
<p>Stumble into you, is all I ever do<br />
My memory’s hazy<br />
And I’m afraid to be alone </p>
<p>Tear us in two, is all it’s gonna do<br />
As the headache fades<br />
This house is no longer a home </p>
<p>Don’t give up on the dream,<br />
Don’t give up on the wanting<br />
And everything that’s true<br />
Don’t give up on the dream,<br />
Don’t give up on the wanting </p>
<p>Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you<br />
Because I want you </p>
<p>Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you<br />
Because I want you </p>
<p>Fall into you is all I ever do!<br />
When I hit the bottle<br />
‘Cause I’m afraid to be alone </p>
<p>Tear us in two<br />
Tear us in two<br />
Tear us in two </p>
<p>Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you<br />
Because I want you<br />
Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you too<br />
Because I want you<br />
Because I want you </p>
<p><strong>Blind</strong> </p>
<p>If I could tear you from the ceiling<br />
And guarantee a source divine<br />
Rid you of possessions fleeting<br />
Remain your funny valentine </p>
<p>Don&#8217;t go and leave me<br />
And please don&#8217;t drive me blind<br />
Don&#8217;t go and leave me<br />
And please don&#8217;t drive me blind </p>
<p>If I could tear you from the ceiling<br />
I know best have tried<br />
I&#8217;d fill your every breath with meaning<br />
And find a place we both could hide </p>
<p>Don&#8217;t go and leave me<br />
And please don&#8217;t drive me blind<br />
Don&#8217;t go and leave me<br />
And please don&#8217;t drive me blind<br />
You don&#8217;t believe me<br />
But you do this every time<br />
Please don&#8217;t drive me blind<br />
Please don&#8217;t drive me blind </p>
<p>I know you&#8217;re broken<br />
I know you&#8217;re broken<br />
I know you&#8217;re broken </p>
<p>If I could tear you from the ceiling<br />
I&#8217;d freeze us both in time<br />
And find a brand new way of seeing<br />
Your eyes forever glued to mine </p>
<p>Don&#8217;t go and leave me<br />
And please don&#8217;t drive me blind<br />
Don&#8217;t go and leave me<br />
And please don&#8217;t drive me blind </p>
<p>And please don&#8217;t drive me blind<br />
And please don&#8217;t drive me blind<br />
And please don&#8217;t drive me blind<br />
And please don&#8217;t drive me blind </p>
<p>I know you&#8217;re broken<br />
I know you&#8217;re broken<br />
I know you&#8217;re broken </p>
<p><strong>Pierrot the clown </strong></p>
<p>Leave me dreaming on the bed<br />
See you right back here tomorrow<br />
For the next round<br />
Keep this scene inside your head<br />
As the bruises turn to yellow<br />
The swelling goes down </p>
<p>And if you&#8217;re ever around<br />
In the city or the suburbs<br />
Of this town<br />
Be sure to come around<br />
I&#8217;ll be wallowing in sorrow<br />
Wearing a frown<br />
Like Pierrot the clown </p>
<p>Saw you crashing round the bay<br />
Never seen you act so shallow<br />
Or look so brown<br />
Remember all the things you&#8217;d say<br />
How your promises ran hollow<br />
As you threw me to the ground </p>
<p>And if you&#8217;re ever around<br />
In the backstreets or the alleys<br />
Of this town<br />
Be sure to come around<br />
I&#8217;ll be wallowing in pity<br />
Wearing a frown<br />
Like Pierrot the clown </p>
<p>When I dream, I dream your lips<br />
When I dream, I dream your kiss<br />
When I dream, I dream your fists<br />
Your fists, your fists </p>
<p>Leave me bleeding on the bed<br />
See you right back here tomorrow<br />
For the next round<br />
Keep this scene inside your head<br />
As the bruises turn to yellow<br />
The swelling goes down </p>
<p>And if you&#8217;re ever around<br />
In the city or the suburbs<br />
Of this town,<br />
Be sure to come around,<br />
I&#8217;ll be wallowing in sorrow<br />
Wearing a frown<br />
Like Pierrot the clown </p>
<p>Like Pierrot the clown<br />
Like Pierrot the clown<br />
Like Pierrot the clown<br />
Like Pierrot the clown </p>
<p><strong>Broken promise</strong> </p>
<p>We&#8217;ll rise above this<br />
We&#8217;ll cry about this<br />
As we live and learn<br />
A broken promise<br />
I was not honest<br />
Now I watch as tables turn<br />
And you&#8217;re singing </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll wait my turn to tear inside you<br />
Watch you burn<br />
I&#8217;ll wait my turn<br />
I&#8217;ll wait my turn </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll cry about this and hide my cuckold eyes<br />
As you come off all concerned<br />
I&#8217;ll find no solace in your poor apology<br />
In your regret that sounds absurd<br />
Keep singing </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll wait my turn to tear inside you<br />
Watch you burn<br />
I&#8217;ll wait my turn to terrorize you<br />
Watch you burn<br />
I&#8217;ll wait my turn<br />
I&#8217;ll wait my turn </p>
<p>A promise is a promise<br />
A promise is a promise </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll wait my turn to tear inside you<br />
Watch you burn<br />
I&#8217;ll wait my turn<br />
I&#8217;ll wait my turn </p>
<p>A broken promise<br />
You were not honest<br />
I&#8217;ll bide my time<br />
I&#8217;ll wait my turn </p>
<p><strong>One of a kind </strong></p>
<p>On top of the world you get nothing done<br />
Talk is cold and burns like the sun<br />
Can&#8217;t you see these skies are breaking<br />
Cause the top of the word is where I&#8217;m from<br />
The back of the class is where I was<br />
Keeping quiet playing dumb<br />
Can&#8217;t you see these skies are breaking<br />
Cause the back of the class is where I&#8217;m from </p>
<p>And I am one<br />
I am<br />
I am one<br />
I am, I am, I am, I am, I am </p>
<p>I&#8217;m on a race and it&#8217;s killing time<br />
I don&#8217;t need yours i&#8217;ll keep it with mine<br />
Can&#8217;t you see these skies are breaking<br />
Cause I&#8217;m on a race and I&#8217;m doing fine, thank you<br />
Two of a kind no one home<br />
I&#8217;m in a crowd and I&#8217;m still alone<br />
Can&#8217;t you see the skies are breaking<br />
Cause one of a kind is all I own </p>
<p>I am one<br />
I am<br />
I am one<br />
I am, I am, I am, I am, I am </p>
<p>Out of the womb and into the void<br />
I wanna try but I get annoyed<br />
Can&#8217;t you see these skies are breaking<br />
Cause I&#8217;m out of the womb and into the void </p>
<p>I am one,<br />
I am,<br />
I am one,<br />
I am, I am, I am, I am, I am<br />
I am, I am, I am, I am, I am </p>
<p>On top of the world you get nothing done</p>
<p>In the cold light of morning </p>
<p>In the cold light of morning<br />
While everyone&#8217;s yawning<br />
You&#8217;re high<br />
In the cold light of morning<br />
The party gets boring<br />
You&#8217;re high<br />
As your skin starts a scratchin&#8217;<br />
Wave yesterday&#8217;s action goodbye<br />
Forget past indiscretions and stolen possessions<br />
You&#8217;re high </p>
<p><strong>In the cold light</strong> </p>
<p>In the cold light of morning<br />
While everyone&#8217;s yawning<br />
You&#8217;re high<br />
In the cold light of morning<br />
You&#8217;re drunksick from whoring<br />
And high<br />
Staring back from the mirror&#8217;s a face that you don&#8217;t recognise<br />
It&#8217;s a loser, a sinner, a cock in a dildo&#8217;s disguise </p>
<p>In the cold light </p>
<p>Tomorrow<br />
Tomorrow<br />
Tomorrow </p>
<p>As your skin starts a scratchin&#8217;<br />
Wave yesterdays action goodbye<br />
Forget past indiscretions and stolen possessions<br />
You&#8217;re high<br />
In the cold light of day<br />
Tomorrow&#8217;s only a kettle whistle,<br />
Whistle,<br />
Whistle,<br />
Whistle,<br />
Whistle,<br />
Whistle,<br />
Whistle,<br />
Whistle,<br />
Whistle away<br />
In the cold light of day </p>
<p><strong>Song To Say Goodbye </strong></p>
<p>You are one of God&#8217;s mistakes<br />
You crying, tragic waste of skin<br />
I&#8217;m well aware of how it aches<br />
And you still won&#8217;t let me in<br />
Now I&#8217;m breaking down your door<br />
To try and save your swollen face<br />
Though I don&#8217;t like you anymore<br />
You lying, trying waste of space</p>
<p>Before our innocence was lost<br />
You were always one of those<br />
Blessed with lucky sevens<br />
And a voice that made me cry<br />
My Oh My</p>
<p>You were mother nature&#8217;s son<br />
Someone to whom I could relate<br />
Your needle and your damage done<br />
Remains a sordid twist of fate<br />
Now I&#8217;m trying to wake you up<br />
To pull you from the liquid sky<br />
‘Cause if I don&#8217;t we&#8217;ll both end up<br />
With just your songs to say goodbye<br />
My Oh My</p>
<p>A song to say goodbye<br />
A song to say goodbye<br />
A song to say</p>
<p>Before our innocence was lost<br />
You were always one of those<br />
Blessed with lucky sevens<br />
And a voice that made me cry</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a song to say goodbye</p>
