And I Know 04:01
Losing all I've sought Wishing things were not Further down the trail Destruction unveiled Racing hearts decay Death is holding sway Shamayim withheld The moshiach is felled And I know that you'll always abate And I know that you'll never evade And I know that you'll always placate And I know that you'll never escape me

In the time of the dinosaurs I walk around with my kid I tell him of things to come And tell him not to cross the street I said goodbye to my kid Kid's a word that rhymes with bid I put a bid on my favorite horse He won 'cause a horse is a horse of course of course I spoke of things and of our past And I spoke of the grape tree I spoke of wheezing some juice I spoke of being a cat I said goodbye to my cat As I blasted him into space Got in a fight with a Martian horse He won 'cause a horse is a horse of course of course When will this end? All of this grief I hope it does soon 'Cause I'm planning a trip to England

I thought I'd never see this place Hidden in your heart I thought you'd never show your face As you fall apart

Rush 05:43
If time were to rush it would rush to me For I am the one who kills all those who bleed If time were to kill it would kill for me And I'd rush with the knife a knife made Rush onto me Rush onto the pain you bring For I am the one you crave Rush onto me with your craving Rush onto the pain If time were to pass it would pass by me For this time passes by so slowly If time were to crave it would crave for me For I am the one who will set you free

I look through this daze as the time slips away And I feel your heartbeat No hope for today and the whole world is grey And I know you're fleeing Whisper in madness the things I want to hear I turn a new page and the ink starts to fade And I know your weakness The cancer gives way though the memory stays And I feel the regret

O Genevieve 06:24
You're drawing me to the edge of insanity I've not felt like this for long You've crushed and broken these empty dreams Now nothing can go wrong Genevieve, my destiny Better than all that I've known Give me peace, give me hope Life is so slow Give me comfort in the pouring rain I just need a cigarette to ease the suffering Let me think of you these final days I just need a cigarette You're fermenting, I'm escaping All that made you worth the trouble Disassociate these memories Spend your life in pure denial Genevieve, my ecstasy Better than all that I've had Give me peace, give me hope Life is so slow Give me comfort in the pouring rain I just need a little help to ease the suffering Let me think of you these final days I just need a little help Somewhere there must be someone Who understands how it feels I'm just a man So kiss me once inside These broken walls These walls that hold my dreams O Genevieve I look and I can see There's nothing left to lose Yourself in sleep And ecstasy and booze I thought I knew The answer to my prayers But still I feel That there's this emptiness

Snow 06:33
Floods of color break my furlough Drip parades of snow I've had visions, clouds and cave-ins Around your contours like snow Azure acres for your left eye An oasis of snow And your right eye, green of aspens Onyx axle with a promenade of snow The walls of the world are paved With the same surreal bricks that build dreams

Signals 08:54
I am the lone survivor Remnant of a people far away You watch me cold and distant Forget that I came here anyway I once longed for a rescue Wanting freedom from your gaze, I'll stay My furies have released me I stopped running, you're now my prey You define me We are compromised Know I'm alive Signals block my skies I sleep in fitful terrors You are sleepless, you can't dream, can you? You seem to wait forever As you idle, I can be changed too I don't need further motive To escape the watchful eyes (Should I?) When I see chains and keys I realize fear linked you to me You were the best for me Freedom was vague to me It could be You were me Have I come far?
