back to being beautiful

i told you i would wait but not for long
so i think its time to push ahead
though something still feels wrong
if the other side of happiness is truth
then i need this like a hole in the head
another one to breathe through
someday all of this will be gone
and it'll go back to being beautiful
back to being beautiful

Daphne would you say
that its OK for me to listen to myself
or would you say that I'm crazy
cause i don't understand how people move around this
and ill never understand when you say
its all good and its all great
Daphne would you ask
just this once for me to come right back or would you just wait in bed patiently
cause i don't understand things like love and marriage
and ill never comprehend when you say
its all fun and its all games

somebody pinch me cause I think I'm dreaming
and anyway I like the pain
its only a feeling ill float to the ceiling
till this all goes down the drain
i don't find out whats hot til its out of style
i don't need to know whose fucking who
or anything like that
its a quarter past Tuesday
Ive been here since last week
and i don't want to go home
i think she likes me
cause if she didn't than id be
writing a much sadder song
i don't care about who u were before
all i need to know is if your in and when this is over
dream number 634
give me a taste ill tell you that i want some more
the colors break and i get bored of this
who says that dreams don't make sense

put your ears up to the pavement
and listen to the screams underneath their footsteps
i still don't think you'd understand
i told you not to eat that ice cream
i told you not to eat that ice cream
and look what happened
look what happened
I was only 16 years when i left this town
but I'm back for now
i was only 18 years old when i killed the clown
but hes back and he
won't stop now
won't stop now
won't stop now
won't stop now
prepare yourself for the attack
the government the terrorist
when i was only 12 years old
they swore that i could be president
but then i found you heroin
the sweet relief within the bag
i told you not to eat that ice cream
i told you not to eat that ice cream
and look what happened
look what happened
you cant stop now
you cant stop now
you wont stop now
you cant stop now

oh victoria i don't suppose your waiting for
sedation to come over us
i don't suppose id be a fool to suppose
cause your oh your oh your over my head
ill never comprehend this
your over my head
floating gently in space
but with time i hope i can
reach up and touch you
sing an old song make it sound new
with a brand new hook and a half hearted look
in the mirror where things appear
so much clearer to me now
oh victoria its been about a week
and i cant stop thinking
about the way you stare at me
through my computer screen
i need to be committed
cause your driving me crazy
straight jacket and all
ill escape through the back door so i can
touch you
sing an old song make it sound new
with a brand new hook and a half hearted look
in the mirror where things appear
so much clearer to me now
i fell asleep in a hospital bed
and didn't care if i woke up
all i needed was thoughts of you in my head
and a thorazine shot
oh victoria i don't suppose your waiting for the sedation to end and all this to stop
i don't suppose id be a fool to suppose
cause i draw and i dream such impossible things
but i know now that i can reach up and
touch you
sing an old song make it sound new
with a brand new hook and a half hearted look
in the mirror where things appear
so much clearer to me now

sing low and wear your make up
its the same song until we wake up
he says some one kill me cause i wont
and you walk for years but your getting no where
you shed a tear when you think of family
he says someone save me cause i wont
and we forget and it happens so fast
but we survive while we chase our own deaths
he says someone kill me cause i wont
hes a desperate man and hes feeling hopeless
so he preys to god even though hes unsure
he says if your listening i give up
please god save me cause i wont

while we were spinning out
we wore our souls on our shirts
now the porridge has cooled down
so we wont know, no we wont know
which one was right
was it me or was it you who threw the drugs out
well i guess ill quit right now
ive done it once now im doing it twice
we can leave our past behind
and focus on our future
well ignore this speck in time
until its gone until we dont care
which one was right
was it me or was it you who threw the drugs out
well i guess ill quit right now
ive done it once now im doing it twice
it was just a saturday
where we stayed up late with no responsibilities
just a holiday
we didn't celebrate
we fell in love with doing nothing

clever school boy
youre sly as a fox
youll leave your mark
cause youll never stop
i dont mind you hanging around
drum lines on sunday
youll be home by 4
lonely at parties
and hungry for more
i dont mind you hanging around
this late on a sunday in fact i wish you would stay till
tuesday or whenever you see fit to leave
theres nothing to do anyway
so we might as well be alone together
you cant sleep and
i blame the meds
or lack there of but
you know whats best
i dont mind you hanging around
this late on a sunday in fact i wish you would stay til
tuesday or whenever you see fit to leave
theres nothing to do anyway
so we might as well be alone together

i dont mind cooking a meal
if theres somebody there to eat it with
but i never cared much for doing the dishes
i dont mind having to fight
if theres somebody there at the end of the night
but your wasting your time sitting outside my house
were taking this to higher ground
your choking on your silver spoon right now
you stayed up to late last night and now your missing out
and on top of it all your choking on your silver spoon right now
i dont mind breaking a string
if you dont mind waiting for me
i never came to that night after the party
i dont mind bringing it down
if your not bored and sticking around
but i never quite figured out how
were taking this to higher ground
your choking on your silver spoon right now
you stayed up to late last night and now your missing out
and on top of it all your choking on your silver spoon right now
we dont stand a chance
this day this age this ignorant
pocket full of ash we all fall down
i dont mind rehashing this book
it never hurts to talk in circles
the lessons we learn will last a lifetime
i dont mind burning this script
cause the people who wrote it are all full of shit
and i dont think that theyd mind me saying it
were taking this to higher ground
your choking on your silver spoon right now
you stayed up to late last night and now your missing out
and on top of it all your choking on your silver spoon right now

ive wasted more time than any man should
thats a fact
if were all the same then how come i feel so different
dont trouble yourself your too old to be thinking bout that
if were all the same then who cares about age or things like that
i cant sleep at night its cold
so im outside shooting guns alone
its the greatest story told
where no one gets hurt and no ones alone
you asked me my name and
i asked you to call me your friend
you know that im lying but i cant help myself just yet
ill shake like a leaf til i fall from this tree again
if were all the same how come i feel so different

jane's song

sweetheart with your ruby red lips and diamond irises
im becoming what i always said i meant
this sentiment
every time i did it i was half asleep
who can really blame a man
whos afraid of almost everything
were all apart of a greater whole
you know nuts and bolts and screws and atoms
if you walk away the machine may break
if your cool with that then your cool with me
everytime i did it i was half asleep
who can really blame a man
whos afraid of almost everything
