Horror Movie (free) 03:37
You talk to yourself without trying I gather my things while you're lying A delicate game of half truths And you stand and you stare and you drool and you lose I walk to the car right behind you You open my door without being asked to A delicate game of polite dance And you sit and you drive and you're good at romance You don't know You don't notice it I'm starting a fight without trying I gather my thoughts but you keep lying A delicate game of insults And you think and you preach and you open the trunk I run from the car at the stop sign You're faster and catch me from behind A delicate game of anger And you hit and you tie and you're full of danger You don't know You don't notice it Can't break the bonds though I'm trying I tell you it hurts, you say I'm lying A delicate game of fucked up minds And you laugh and you kiss and you grab and you cry I'm locked in a car with a psycho The pain in my heart's nothing compared to The delicate pain of knife from boot And I stab and I stab and I stab and I kill you You don't know You don't...didn't.. .notice it

In an evening from a Bollywood movie In a haze of road dust and smog You walk through the shadows of skyscrapers Bring tourists back from the ancient ruins You go home to the old part of the city Eat your dinner of curry and rice The noise and the smell of the 21st century And the ruins of a world left behind And it's always and never the Year of the Cat You left her with the monsoon rain Just like you knew you would all along Your parents sent you money and a plane ticket It was time to go back home where you belong You changed your mind while waiting at the airport You thumbed a ride back to town The flat was empty, all of her things were gone Your reason to stay was nowhere to be found And it's always and never the Year of the Cat Now everyone you know has a cell phone Some of them even have cars They tell you that it's good for business They can always find out where you are For the first few years you hoped you would find her Pretending she'd come back passed the time Now staying here is easier than going back And tourists like an English speaking guide Pretty college girls wearing patchouli The memories and the moss-eaten stairs Your wasted life in this ancient city Where you keep your foolish heart and aging bones And it's always and never the Year of the Cat

Frustration 01:40
Whoopie-ki-yi-yay, my brains are on fire My brains are on fire and I don't know why I sit here and shake my fists My neurons are arsonists My brains are on fire and I don't know why

For to see Mad Tom of Bedlam Ten thousand miles I'd travel Mad Maudlin goes on dirty toes To save her shoes from gravel (chorus) It's well that we sing bonny boys Bonny mad boys Bedlam boys are bonny for they All go bare and they live in the air And they want no drink nor money I went down to Satan's kitchen For to break my fast one morning And there I got souls popping hot All on the spits a-turnin' (chorus) The spirits howled as lightning Did on that journey guide me The sun did shake and the pale moon quake Whenever they did spy me (chorus) My staff has murdered giants And my pack a long knife carries For to slice mince pies from children's thighs From which to feed the faeries (chorus) Tonight I'll go a murderin' The man in the moon to a powder His dog I'll shake and his staff I'll break And I'll howl a wee bit louder (chorus) For to see Mad Tom of Bedlam Ten thousand miles I'd travel Mad Maudlin goes on dirty toes For to save her shoes from gravel (chorus)

Well I came to a conclusion That every one is insane And I have twelve thousand voices Telling me the same With all these voices talking in my head I have no room to complain Well I came to a conclusion That every one is insane And I have twelve thousand voices Telling me the same With all these voices talking in my head I have no room to complain The ceiling fans are spinning And the lights are all on It's a carousel state of mind The lights are very bright now And they're spinning to the time They've left me anything but blind I can see the world from here It seems so very small The jarring of my little perch Sends worries of a fall But I'm still standing tall I'm still standing tall The lightbulbs of my carousel They are my guiding lights Like beacons from lighthouses On those dark and stormy nights The voices are my spirit guides They tell me it's okay The question of my sanity It quickly fades away So maybe if we all pay heed To guides and guiding lights We'll all be safe tonight We'll all be safe tonight We'll all be safe tonight

I'm going to set the record straight here Then you'll finally know That spark's been gone for quite awhile now dear That's why I let you go I took some of your innocence from you A mutual attack And though you took something away from me too I can take mine back This heart is mine It's undeniably mine I'll dish it out in pieces to whomever I like And if you find You've got a piece of what's mine Just know I'll take it back one day And I'll be just fine You are not going to drive me insane Though you've gotten close I know you're only trying to entertain I swear I'll break your nose You've truly shown me new ways of the heart A trust you could call love It should be known that someday, baby, we'll part I want my own true love This heart is mine It's undeniably mine I'll dish it out in pieces to whomever I like And if you find You've got a piece of what's mine Just know I'll take it back one day And I'll be just fine You're my favorite tall dark and handsome thing My longest running bet It's your fault I changed the standards of screening No one has matched up yet There are so many pieces that have charred along the way If I don't pay attention then it's my fault so I pay The trying and the lying starts the crying.. . stupid girl I don't have hope so prove me wrong, she screamed out to the world It hits the fan, tears things up, there's never any time It shouldn't be so hard to find your own partner in crime This heart is fine It's been beat up but it's fine If you want a piece of it you might as well get in line So if you find You've got a piece of inside Just know I gave it freely knowing You'd like to be mine

Killing Time 04:29
Sittin' here on a lazy Saturday It's so nice out I should go out and play First sun in weeks and it feels great on my face The snow is gone and the world's a whole new place Walk down the street Got my red flip flops on Love night so much that I Almost forgot the dawn I'm killin' time waiting for the Night to fall Killin' time waiting for my Baby to call I go to work in the morning and afternoon Everyday it seems the night can't come too soon I take the bus home and plot something to do There's gotta be a way that it can involve you Put on my party dress The sun is almost gone We love the night so let's Hang on until the dawn I'm killin' time waiting for the Night to fall Killin' time waiting for my Darlin' to call I read a book about the end of the world Bombs and time travel, slavery and a girl She fell in love with a man twice her age Had healthy twins and their freehold is all the rage We made it through the night, I'm still holding on Without I don't think I'd ever have seen the dawn Killin' time waiting for my baby to call Killin' time waiting for my darling to call Don't even know if I'll get to see him at all Killin' time waiting for the night to fall
