we chase the wave until it breaks into a dorsal fin a killer whale from beyond the pale who can tow us in our shaky hides our faces flecked by foam wives on the docks but we're not coming home we're not coming home there were some nasty little thoughts about a nail pick

no more no more death no more no more death i can still feel your hand how i can feel its grip two restless souls sharing a hospital bed no more consciousness no more hold your breath with a sigh of relief, the tears still fall to his chest i can still feel your hand and how it lost its grip the only one to watch you lose your last breath

a safe nest to call my own the old emptiness where i feel the flood runs cool into my veins i'm an addict now i'm an addict now restlessness inside my soul it's a terrible feeling i can't call this home blame, blame on everything we've known and all the futures though we've yet to cast that stone are you in, are you out? i'm an addict now i'm an addict now dear joan, you've been a lousy lover but a wonderful friend through and through, i've been able to use you but this has to end i think a shot to the head will do the trick i don't really even have to talk you into it just think you'll see the great unknown now, is this a bad omen? or is this a bad joke? are you in, are you out? i'm an addict now i'm an addict now are you in are you out? i'm an addict now i'm an addict now

Little Girl 04:18
if the shroud around you falls and if your eyes are going white and if the blood you're coughing up is keeping you awake at night little girl little girl when you come to me at night and your faith in me lights up how it bursts now at the sight though you cannot rise above little girl little girl darling, how your heart hangs heavy and though you isolate the thought moving through this plane, you feel the star and so now does my heart little girl little girl

Turn Obscure 03:51
i’d let you write all over me if i thought i would change i’d learn the language you’d prefer to have this exchange i’d shave my head and get cut, and never be the same i’d let you skin me alive, and put me on display i’d close my eyes and listen to you, fast explaining the world you’d do the walking for me, becoming part of the herd reading to me every night, but only what you approve i’m a good boy, i know that you’re my only truth i learn my lesson again i learn my lessons again i learn my lesson again i learn my lessons again with no one fawning over me, i start to turn obscure just an inkblot bleeding over someone's work i talk and talk and talk and talk to an ascending wall i swear your door was open at the start of it all you never listen to me, you never show your worth what’s the point of you existing on god’s green earth? always fail to do the thing that you’ve set out to do if it kills you, you’ll know i’m your only truth i learn my lesson again i learn my lessons again i learn my lesson again i learn my lessons again you’re a changed man now, your former self a myth but you’re still not quite the person that i want to be with i learn my lesson again you’ve given me your body, you’ve given your soul but it’s not enough, babe, i’ve got to swallow you whole
