 Weve Had Enough
|
We've Had Enough
in the shadows where the heads hang low
you hear voices as the wind blows
asking "can't you see?"
reminding you to breathe
it's only time
before it catches up
to you and all your broken luck
i found a better way
to get even with my memory
in the darkness where the angels cry
"give us water, give us back our eyes
our beds this concrete floor
and it's all we have left to live for
a day we'll never face we're only
second handed sick and lonely
fighting back the tears
and every urge to van gogh both our ears"
that said we've had enough
please turn that fucking radio off
ain't nothing on the air waving the despair we feel
NO!
in the shadows where the heads hang low
you hear voices as the wind blows
asking "can't you see?"
reminding you to breathe
it's only time
before it catches up
to you and all your broken luck
i found a better way
to get even with my enemies
that said we've had enough
please turn that fucking radio off
ain't nothing on the air waving the despair we feel
that said we've had enough
put "walk among us" on and turn it up
ain't nothing on the air waving the hatred we feel
NO!
this is our biggest fear
only tunes that we hear
come via antenna
through your car raid-ee-uh-oh-oh-no
that said we've had enough

One Hundred Stories
you're in the next room sleeping and i'm shouting out a song for you
i shouldn't wake you over the furnace, but i should swear to someone you'd have loved every note
so dream a good one tonight. i'll listen to the bad ones when they come
get up in my ear 'til i hear every word. with every turn of your tongue i will tighten my grip
no one could tell even if i fell one hundred stories straight down
no one could tell even if i fell one hundred stories down
i was getting bored with hurting myself
if you fall down enough, well soon enough, you will find hell
it can't be as pretty as we hoped it would be
it's not even warm here, not even ten degrees
this bed is too big to sleep in, and i'm dying just to feel you breath.
you couldn't see across the ocean, but i was turning over 'til the vampires sleep
so dream a good one tonight. i'll listen to the bad ones when they com.
get up in my ear 'til i hear every word. with every turn of your tongue i will tighten my grip
no one could tell even if i fell one hundred stories straight down
no one could tell even if i fell one hundred stories down
i was getting bored with hurting myself
if you fall down enough, well soon enough, you will find hell
it can't be as pretty as we hoped it would be
it's not even warm here, not even ten degrees
dream a good one tonight
i was getting bored with hurting myself

Blue In The Face
it's about time that i came clean with you
i'm no longer fine and far from running smooth
i thought that i found myself onto something new
one more line i repeat over and over again
'til i'm blue in the face with a choking regret
as i talk in circles 'round you on my bed
can't say i blamed you one bit when you kept it all inside
when you left that night
it's about time that you get sick of me
no longer fun and so far from interesting
i thought that i found me a cure for feeling old
just one more line to keep me sleeping loudly and cold
in disgrace with a shameful regret
as i talk in tongues to myself in my bed
can't say i blamed you one bit when you kept it all inside
when you left that night
and all that followed fell like mercury to hell
somehow we lost our heads for the last time
now i can't dream since i quit sleeping
and i haven't slept since i met you
and you can't breathe without coughing at daytime
neither can i so what do you say?
your coffin or mine?
