LYRICS: 'Just Take Me On'



Now's the time to show your face
Erase the past and leave this place
Everything waits now for you
If it's what you want to do.

Am I your future?
Am I your fate?
Is it too early?
Is it too late?

Your shadow paints my wall
Helps me leap and stand up tall
Sometimes I can never be
Without you here next to me.

Am I your future?
Am I your fate?
Is it too early?
Is it too late?

Just take all that you know
Come with me and start the show.

Am I your future?
Am I your fate?
Is it too early?
Is it too late?

I'm here for you, just take me on.
I'm here for you, just take me on.

LYRICS: 'I Take Crumbs, They Steal Bakeries'



The vial is empty
My body a hollow receptacle of truth.
A corpse going over Niagara
Ashes in the mouth, ashes in the mouth.
I can’t breath, I can’t sleep
I can’t see for the eclipse in front of my heart,
It yearns for you, it breaks for you.

The past just a crimson slice from a failed suicde
There’s nowhere left to hide
The chasm of hopelessness grows wide.
But don’t blame me, please don’t blame me,
I take crumbs, they steal bakeries.
I take crumbs, they steal bakeries.

Kiss yesterday with vodka breath
Fucked up without being special
Nothing unique but these scars and my brain
A DJ will always lay quicker than an intellectual
They want sport and superficiality
Not Salinger and Scott.
Not Salinger and Scott.

The past just a crimson slice from a failed suicde
There’s nowhere left to hide
The chasm of hopelessness grows wide.
But don’t blame me, please don’t blame me,
I take crumbs, they steal bakeries.
I take crumbs, they steal bakeries.

Time ticks forwards towards death’s cruel embrace.
Wherever you’re going,
You’re going alone, cowboy
You’re going alone, cowboy.

The past just a crimson slice from a failed suicde
There’s nowhere left to hide
The chasm of hopelessness grows wide.
But don’t blame me, please don’t blame me,
I take crumbs, they steal bakeries.
I take crumbs, they steal bakeries.

One fine day you’ll want me
One fine day you’ll want me
One fine day you’ll want me
…And I’ll be gone.

LYRICS: 'The Darkness, Reality'



She stands alone inside a metal machine
Neon draping over her like crystalline sunshine.
No further course to follow, all signs lead to nothing
All she needs is love’s sweet rescue.
All she needs is love’s sweet rescue.

It is odd that the heart is an organ that repairs itself
She could not think now of such sweet redemption.
A shallow skeletal poisonous package
All she needs is love’s sweet rescue.
All she needs is love’s sweet rescue.

A swallow choking in the gas
A fallen fallow fawn in the forest
A broken choking buzzing tone
Lifeline horizontal
Lifeline horizontal.
The love was a dream
The darkness, reality.
The darkness, reality.
The darkness, reality.
The darkness, reality.

LYRICS: 'Nine One One'



Neon flickered skin
Naked under floodlight sun
Cold flesh against the steel
Warmth covers, warmth covers.
When you’re alone
That can be the greatest company
Not solitude
But elegant sanctuary.
Mirror in the bathroom
Reflecting crimson truth
Reflecting you
Your time will come
Seconds into days
Wait some more
Eyes closed sight.
This story doesn’t have to end
The twist you revel in
Can be a tsunami heartbeat
A tsunami heartbeat.

This time is not your own
Face in the crowd
Blood red sentimental fool
Did someone call an ambulance?
Call an ambulance.

LYRICS: 'Then Dance The Streets Till Dawn'



Frisson of electricity
Passing through us like a ghost
Try to think but there’s only you
Nirvana made flesh, over here.

Crossing other memories
Scarlet world then turns translucent blue.
Heart goes faster as it slows down
Can’t explain it, only you.

Time to venture through the city
Bodies one under the neon
One last lime lager at the club
Then dance the streets till dawn
Then dance the streets till dawn
Then dance the streets till dawn.

LYRICS: 'Brady Song'



So draw yourself a grid
Like a geographical battleships.
Now take a guess
I promise you the truth
If that’s what you require.
You hate me but you need me too,
You can’t destroy me or the mystery can’t be solved.
There?
Nothing there I’m afraid,
Just rocks and undisturbed dirt.
Virgin soil not your virgin child
Virgin soil not your virgin child.

Perhaps you should leave
Consult your psychic
Take out your spade and dig?
Maybe a year…
Maybe five years, you’ll hit a bone
Frantically throw the earth
Until you unveil the truth.
Look into the sunken sockets
Brush away the dirt
Alas, poor Unnamed
We both loved him
Just our way was literal.
Painful and eternal
We’ll add your broken heart to the haul.
I’ll laugh as the prison lights click off
Unaware of the razored toothbrush at my throat.

Is that justice, child?
Is that justice, child?
Is that justice, child?

The ultimate irony,
Final fame is mine.
My face adorns the covers
Your boy is on page 26
Between the racing and the porno lines.
Between the racing and the porno lines.

LYRICS: 'The Ballad Of The Flipper Baby'



Sweet little flipper baby
Ugly as sin yet beautiful.
Breathing in the acrid smoke,
Lungs drip with black tar haze.

Sweet little flipper baby
Star of the whole damn horror show.
Weak hearted, loose limbed
Drowning in the umbilical flood.

We love you flipper baby
We love you flipper baby
We love you flipper baby
Mommy’s little tragedy.

Sweet little flipper baby
A Daniel Johnston hurt exorcism.
Singing fish lips gasp for air
Blackness sweeping in, eyes glazed.

Sweet little flipper baby
Embryonic supermodel.
Razor thin fins flip, heavy agitation,
Metaphorical hook tears skin.

We love you flipper baby
We love you flipper baby
We love you flipper baby
Daddy’s little tragedy.

Three days out the hospital
Flipper baby catches cold
Blue plaque above the garage
Blue fish fins in the cot.
Flipper baby gone.
Gone, baby, gone.

We loved you flipper baby
We loved you flipper baby
We loved you flipper baby
Nature’s little miracle
Nature’s little miracle
Nature’s little death.
