Underground Love

Falling under, underground love

The blindsiding wildfire crept through the fog

It ended our dreams and ended us all

A new temptation followed thereafter,

A desire to move – to move on faster

Ask me again in 500 years

If death on my doorstep tingled my fears

If pleas for clean shadows had any chance at all

Or if underground love got lost, lost in the fog

Can you please forgive me for my sins?

I’ll love you forever when our new life begins

Be it underground or on top the world,

I’ll shred those blank pages

I’ll save those old words

Cause I’m falling under

Underground love

Falling under

Underground love

Ask me again in 500 years

If death on my doorstep tingled my fears

If pleas for clean shadows had any chance at all

Or if underground love got lost, lost in the fog

1055

Rollercoastin’ melodies flow through my head

Warming up the darkness of the things that I said

Toss my dollar into a jar

Hope for a miracle to come from afar

My God! I almost fell in love

And Lord knows that I’ve had enough

Dollhouse burden crackles like flame

As we call each others’ demons out by name

Take that money magic and bring it in with you

As long as the curtains draw, I’ll jump in too

But what is patience for?

If Lord knows….you love me no more

Welshrats

Dapper young man

You dress to impress

But you haven’t any plan

You never have, no you never have

Growing older and older

Waiting on a clever lie

To learn the new world order

You’ll be fine, yeah you’ll be fine

Oh suburbia, you’re gonna make a mess out of me

And oh suburbia, I think you already have

Growing up but not taller

Growing old, but not wiser

Now you’re running out of time

Better take aim at something

Steady your rifle in your arms

Take aim at all your dreams

Shoot them all down

One by one, one by one

Oh suburbia, you’re gonna make a mess out of me

Magic 8

Don’t you wanna run

Don’t you wanna run away

Don’t you wanna run

Don’t you wanna

Drive real fast past the edge of town

And not look back til we’re gone

Plant our flag in a new location

Resist the urge of old temptation

Don’t you wanna lie

Don’t you wanna lie awake

Don’t you wanna cry

Don’t you wanna

Masquerade

Down came the poison, to let you go

And I’ve watched you fallin’, from out your window

Oh what a pity, they didn’t choose you

You know that you’re pretty? I don’t think you do oh…

And oh how the walls crawl,

And oh how the walls crawl

And I’ve watched your mask fall,

And now you feel it all

Watch the escapist, as he makes a clean break

Seems he couldn’t take this, so he’s on his way

A corner dramatist, he’s caught for days

And he’s spouting rhetoric of yesterday oh….

And oh how the walls crawl,

And oh how the walls crawl

And I’ve watched your mask fall,

And now you feel it all

Still

We’re gonna be big stars some day

We’re gonna be big stars some day

And I’m looking for the answers

With my head turned up to the sky

None of the stars just seem to hold

Any of the answers anymore

You said something

You said something

We’re all caught in a circle

Don’t matter which way you go

Well, my feet stay on the ground

With the sky just all around ‘em

-

If I don’t burn out then I haven’t lived enough

We sat tongue tied, starry eyed, looking at the sky in the middle of the night

If I don’t burn out then I haven’t lived at all
