SELF-PORTRAIT OF A DYING MAN
I can't breathe
Can't look past these streets
Been stuck in this storm for years
It's a million miles away
A million miles
And I can't breathe
It's a million miles away
A million miles
And I can't sleep
Anymore
AMNESIA CAPITALA
​
Fly away from here
Before they clip your wings
Been chasing trails of smoke
Jumping in and out of black holes
If you need me it's too late
So don't bother looking
If you need me don't bother
I'm already miles away
Every day it's easy to forget
So easy to forget
It's easy to forget
Running circles on this rollercoaster
Get me off this rollercoaster
Every day it's easy to forget
So easy to forget
It's easy to forget
HOW TO MAKE PEACE WITH...
​
She says
"I didn't mean to wear your fragile peace of mind"
No care...
"We'll spend our days off in a quiet house by the sky"
She says
"I didn't mean to contradict your alibi"
No care...
"We'll watch ourselves drop one by one in modern style"
I waited for the world's worst symphony
In modern style
In modern style
In style
I waited for the world's worst symphony
CRASH & BURN
​
We're campaigning for a better cause
We'll carry you through
Carry you through
Like monkeys on a carousel
We don't care if you
Care if you
Crash & Burn
System failure signals on
The show's about to start
Sit back and watch
A bumper crop of weasels
Draped and camouflaged
As your God
Crash & Burn
I tried to tell you
Over & over
I've seen it happen
Over & over
We don't care if you Crash & Burn
SERENADING THE MOON
​
Picture yourself free of orbit
Long before discovery
And the mad fiends that pulled you out
On the eve of our great king's
Fall towards recovery
Will the voices in your head drown?
Still this flame keeps burning
A hole through the heart of man
There's a cold wind that blows through town
It cuts up the past
In tiny waves of noise
The curtains are drawn
It's time for a new voice
So leave tonight
Before this blood red sky spits fire
We're here tonight
To watch as it unfolds
A TRAGIC SYMPHONY
​
The magic she's in for
Sleeps on cloudy skies
With butterflies and violins
A tragic symphony
The magic she's in for
Lives in dreamy eyes
Sweet messages through mountains
Call waterfalls
The magic she's in for
Swims in black lagoons
With paper bag mermaids
On wasted afternoons
The magic she's in for
Is a shooting star
(You'll always be remembered)
(You'll always be loved)
THE HOUSE IS ON FIRE
​
They try to mask the truth
With seductive commodity
But the well's run dry
And the red tape's come undone
Their new slogan is super catchy
Our house is on fire
La La La La La
Our house is on fire
So give me the run around!
THE PHANTOM MANIFESTO
​
This mask is old tired and worn
Think I'll throw it away
What lies beyond trapdoors
In dark alleyways
Is never as frightening as the world you create
Am I really here If I can't feel a thing? Vanquished in dreams?
Or am I just scared?
It's time to pull down the shades
Time to turn a new page
So call reinforcement
Call in the brigade
Am I really here If I can't feel a thing? Fallen between cracks
Hanging on by a string
Vanquished in dreams
Or am I just scared?
INFINITY! THE THIEF
​
Blind is the infant
Crawling out your womb
Color fails to mesmerize
Thrown to the lions
While they march in your parade
A toast to the martyr
Self proclaimed thief
You caught me by surprise
Don't wanna be there
When they're calling out my name
I've had enough of everyone
Under attack
The walls have collapsed
And you can't move
Self proclaimed thief
You caught me by surprise
FAIRE LA FENÊTRE
​
When you need her
You understand why
But words don't reach her
As she escapes into the night
Like waterfalls
Of see-through faces on the evening news They always look so sad
The two of us
Hand in hand through time
Can never tell us who we are
I'm tired
Stupid and tired
Stupid and tired
She sees the world
Through the window of an unsound mind Light years away...
I'm tired
Stupid and tired
Stupid and tired
When you need her
You understand why
(Time won't tell us who we are)
THE DAY HE FELL OFF THE FACE OF THE WORLD
​
Tumbled through a wormhole
Tried to dig my way out
But I fell deeper
Into a dark forest
Where strange noises envelope
Trees with branches like mechanical arms
Mechanical arms that carry me off
Moon child
I can't make it home tonight
My ship is lost at sea
Yeah, I'm still here
I'm still here, I'm still here
Well I'm still here
Like it never fuckin' happened
No, it never fuckin' happened
Moon child
I can't make it home tonight
My ship is lost at sea
He did it all for nothing
Wouldn't let it go
And no one blinked an eye
The day he fell off the face of the world
Moon child
I can't make it home tonight
My ship is lost at sea
Moon child
To be in your arms tonight
Is a gift I'll only know in dreams
