A hundred feet below
a large palazzo
they're swapping notes
pockets full
Hard to view it all
not bought, not sold
if they sleep at all
I hope it's terrible

For you
the solitude
is how you soothe

Not hard to toe
the status quo
To be stubborn is
to be the last to go
With these parting words
I beg you, let it go
It's all been hard enough
You lost, you know

You walk so slow
You look around you
You keep focus
on what's possible
All said before
All ruse I'm quite sure
Such a vacant soul
that I don't care so much

But you
your attitude
its noxious hue
precedes when you enter a room

It's not hard to sow
something we all could use
To be stubborn is
to be the last to know
With this parting thought
I'll tell you where to go
It's all been hard enough
You lost, you know

Last To Go

close my eyes
color paints
an orange mood
awaits
in my mind

find the place
no one knows
a vision
awaits 
in my mind

off to see 
where the hues break free
the spectrum ghosts come to be
off to see
where I'll break free
cannot point to me

on the beach
or desert reach
all i know that
its
there somewhere

it might be
the space between
these notes i sing
it's there
all the time?

off to see 
where the hues break free
the spectrum ghosts come to be
off to see
where I'll break free
cannot point to me

Spectrum Ghosts

It's only just started
You recede from my view
Believe me, it's harder
When there's nothing to do

I could play the fool
I'll portray the fool
I would be almost fooled but for you

I hope this is harmless
Swapping out two
Did you think I was heartless?
I was neutral until you broke the news
But you should know I never know what to say
I'll pull us all through this
It's what I'd do anyway

I could play the fool
I'll portray the fool
I would be almost fooled but for you

Ooh, we uncover you 
Ooh, every day

I could play the fool
I'll portray the fool
I would be almost fooled but for you

Duplicity

You
You can be wrong
For the first time
You can be wrong

Tell you what I'll do
I'll write a number for you
You can tell me it's two
Just haven't looped it through
Must be an accent at play
Look what the critics say

You
You can be wrong
For the first time
You can be wrong
For the first time

Who wants to believe
Their facts are just a crude assault
You push me farther
You push me farther I'll be gone

You
You can be wrong
For the first time
You can be wrong
For the first time

Art of Being Wrong

ooo awoke myself
this morning
came
at last it rang
at sunrise

unzip this hide
restless thing inside
stepped out
touched the cold floor

pull shoulders down
fell to my hips
the hollow scream
escaped my lips

where will I go?
without feet below
float across
the time lost?

I lay unzipped.
I lay
I lay unzipped.
I lay

ooo awoke myself
this morning
came
at last it rang
at sunrise

thrown in the chute
useless human suit
defined the outside
god damn this hide
god damn this hide
god damn this hide
god damn

where will I go?
without feet below
float across
the time lost?

I lay unzipped.
I lay
I lay unzipped.
I lay

Undress't

Being fooled, I won't sit silent
Can't believe the trick they use is working
Can't you see, the subterfuge is classic
Just playing with your feelings

Ooh, all of the parties
Ooh, all of the parties
Me and you are two amid millions of their own ads
Ooh, all of the parties

Recognize, hard to see what's honest
There's too much information
Couldn't know, but you lost integrity
Bartered for your outrage

Ooh we're starting to go 
in retrograde
on this promenade 
Ooh, they start to throw   
a fusillade 
before we can stop to wonder
  
Ooh, all of the parties
Ooh, all of the parties

Not so hard to see which way you sided 
Way too little of a skeptic
Apologies are common as a yeti
Less with you chided 

Ooh we're starting to go 
in retrograde
on this promenade
Ooh, we start to throw
a fusillade
before they can stop to wonder
Ooh they won 

Retrograde

open your eyes
surprise
we've been here
for 10 years
or more

we're not right
but we won't fight
the way you want us to
the way you want us to

we won't fall down
hard enough
to suit you

but we've found
the ground

felt the sting
pain did sing
across my heart
& thru my eyes
my part was realized

i won't play the monster
i won't play the monster
the one who kills
my love's free will

we won't fall down
hard enough
to suit you

but we've found
the ground

Found The Ground

Ooh you are beloved both.
You ought to know there's no debate.
Which the most, is such a hornet's nest
that you cannot help but shake.

Ooh, divided into parts.
Ooh, split right along the heart.

Red and blue
blood will flow through you.
Red and blue
blood will flow through you.

You, you ought to notice more
things I do when you're away.
Harmony's not born from love alone.
Nor from fealty, guaranteed.

Ooh, it's bound to come apart.
Ooh, split right along the heart.

Red and blue
blood will flow through you.
Red and blue
blood will flow through you.

Ooh, one stops, the other starts.
Ooh, fits right along the heart.

Heart Divisions

Speak of the Devil

i overheard the kids say
an old abandoned couch lay
out in the field
the door to hell is sealed

the sun is low today
the man in white will play

rode our bikes along
the path where
snakes did crawl
until the trees spread open their arms
and the piece unleashed its charms

the long grass swayed silent
magnetic fields drifted in
we were told not to touch it
the demon man would grab our hand

the sun is low today
the man in white will play

who
where
i
don't see him

who 
where
i
don't feel him

hello...

I've been waiting here
isn't all this clear
just sit right down here
cushions are soft dear

follow me...

the door just opens here
slide through the hole
you'll awaken soon enough
and you'll remember your fear
remember your fear...

grabbed me from behind,
my friends pushed me to run

run as fast as we can
got away from his hand

the sun is low today
the man in white will play

Speak Of The Devil

when you've leapt in someone's heart
just make sure the door is closed behind you
just see that something's left
a seed to plant in love's enclosure

started
fire
imparted
fire

smooth some gravel with my hands
kick the stones across the land
the path was shoveled years before
the vines

mortar that once held
the bricks and bones are crumbling
when you think there's nothing left
light refracts through hope again

started
fire
imparted
fire

fire was started in there
the sprout aglow with ember
the life of love like vines aflame
will light the path again

started
fire
imparted
started
fire
imparted

smooth some gravel with my hands
kick the stones across the land
the path was shoveled years before
the vines
