Life is the Show
04:49
|

My head glitters gold
Won’t you watch me?
Sea of dancers screaming in silence
“Won’t you watch me, play?”
The two most beautiful people in the room
They’re grinding, promiscuously
And all while
Your mantra’s singing hallelujah to me
Oh, life is the show
Oh, life is the show
Stupid cover band
Playing all the songs they’re asking them to play
Masquerade of ego
Swimming through another break in vain.
Break all day, break all day
I don’t want to be Jesus, No.
I’d rather be evil, Oh.
Two unknown bodies were unable to see
They never made a sound
Drifting through a room made up of restless people
Unaware that
Both were painted gold in a room full of evil
Oh

West Coast
04:02
|
|||
It’s been one thousand years
All the other people
Laying on my back
Praying to the steeple
And I think to myself
Would I be better of dead?
Better of dead?
Holy war!
Fuck your holy war!
“Speak deep truth”
Said the man on the floor
He was showing me some kind of evil
This partnership
Was written in the sand
Cold, grey, west coast, ruggard land
and I think to myself
Would I be better of dead?
Better of dead?
West Coast rugged beauty is in my head
What if when I’m waking you’re still there
West Coast rugged beauty is in my head
Everytime I close my eyes I see you staring back at me
And I think to myself…

For you
For you
For you
This would be different
For them
For them
For them
They wouldn’t know the difference
For change
For change
For change
It isn’t always going to stay the same
For love
For love
For love
It is for love!
And I
I thought right
I miss you tonight
They all said it would change me but I doubted it

Sacred Heart
04:56
|
|||
Taking bones and colouring them surreal
The most beautiful colours in this field
The blues and golds
The winter snow
The winter snow
Turn on the lights and reveal her body
Lying there
Marina! Marina!
Come back down
It’s not real
It’s so real
Like the sacred weart which hung on the wall of the church of my youth
Like the bleeding heart which stained the collar of my youth
Like the bloody hand that touched the temple, hung the noose
Hung the noose
On my youth
On my youth
Marina! Marina!
Come back down
It’s not real
It’s so real
It’s surreal
It’s so real
It’s surreal

Ancient Gates
05:00
|
|||
Follow me down to the ancient gates
Out to the field where we will wait
Wait for a kingdom to become
Wait for an old man to be young
There is no thread
There is no thread
Between the days
I rest my head
I rest my head
For days
|

Come and be Beautiful
04:18
|
|||
Romeo! Romeo!
Daddy wasn’t one for coming home
She woke up just to tell me how beautiful the light was
Because Juliet was waking up in a field of flowers
Romeo!
If life is the show, how do I get on it?
I don’t believe you
and I don’t belong here

Don't be Shy II
06:02
|
|||
I said something
That I didn’t mean
I took something
That didn’t belong to me
And I knew someone
Would comfort me
Alone in the bed and the little one said
Roll over
Roll over
Roll over
It’s over
You’re up in your castle
All the way up in your steeple
Up there in your castle
Or down with all your people
Don’t be so Shy...
