Lethal Killers - abandoned pools

Is it not enough for you
to be alive
Did you have to create god
to survive
This is all we have
and all we have is everywhere
There are so many stars
The church and state are lethal killers

If this is all we have
Life seems so much better
Life seems so much deeper
than before

Does it make you feel much better
To stay unaware
Are you living for a heaven
That might not be there
This is all we have
and all we have is everywhere
There are so many stars
The church and state are lethal killers

If this is all we have
Life seems so much better
Life seems so much deeper
And now I'm sure
that this is all we have
Life seems so much better
Life seems so much deeper
than before

This is all we have
and all we have is everywhere
This is all we have (Is it not enough for you) to be alive
And all we have is everywhere (to be alive)
This is all we have
and all we have is everywhere
This is all we have (Did you have to create god)
And all we have is everywhere (to survive)

This is all we have
and all we have is everywhere
There are so many stars
The church and state of lethal killers

If this is all we have
Life seems so much better
Life seems so much deeper
And now I'm sure
that this is all we have
Life seems so much better
Life seems so much deeper
than before

Rabble - abandoned pools

You're sitting next to me
The leaves are on the ground
My heart is in your hands
The ticking of the clock
The siren on the street
My heart is in your hands

But all I ever wanted
All I ever really needed
Was just for you to hear me
Just for you to really know me
All I wanted was you to hear me
And all I needed was you to know me

Miles and miles of smiles
Promising the world
It's getting dark down here
We could use a little help
We could use a little spark
Its getting dark down here

But all I ever wanted
All I ever really needed
Was just for you to hear me
Just for you to really know me
All I wanted was you to hear me
And all I needed was you to know me

You're sitting next to me
The leaves are on the ground
My heart is in your hands

But all I ever wanted
All I ever really needed
Was just for you to hear me
Just for you to really know me
All I wanted was you to hear me
And all I needed was you to know me
But all I ever wanted
All I ever really needed
Was just for you to hear me
Just for you to really know me
All I wanted was you to hear me
And all I needed was you to know me

The Catalyst - abandoned pools

I am on your side
You light me up inside
You fill my eyes with stars
It doesn't get me very far

Just look around
You don't need no fairy tale
To get you by
Just look around
You don't need no Santa Claus
You don't need to make things up

But if there's something more than this
I'll meet you sucked inside a kiss
And if there's something more to this
Then I will be the catalyst
I wish I could say something beautiful to
Make you fall in love again
But love has slowly faded away like
Spotlights shining in
to space

I am on your side
You light me up inside
You fill my eyes with stars
It doesn't get us very far

Just look around
You don't need no fairy tale
To get you by
Just look around
You don't need no Santa Claus
You don't need to make things up

But if there's something more than this
I'll meet you sucked inside a kiss
And if there's something more to this
Then I will be the catalyst
I wish I could say something beautiful to
Make you fall in love again
But love has slowly faded away like
Spotlights shining in
Spotlights shining in
to space

Just look around
You don't need no government
To get you by
Just look around
You don't need no Santa Claus
You don't need to make things up

But if there's something more than this
I'll meet you sucked inside a kiss
And if there's something more to this
Then I will be the catalyst
I wish I could say something beautiful to
Make you fall in love again
But love has slowly faded away like
Spotlights shining in
Spotlights shining in
to space

Tighter Noose - abandoned pools

Up in smoke
This is a joke
Isn't it
All your fault
You went too far
Call it quits
No one knew
The dare to prove
Came and went
Moving on
Chance is gone
Throw a fit

So it's through
Nothing's left to lose
It's lucky too
Who needs a tighter noose

You're so weak
Beat up a geek
Makes you complete
Not so tough
I've had enough
Now I leave
Getting away
One more day
Till then I'll sleep
All I need's
A chance to bleed
On me they feed

So it's through
Nothing's left to lose
It's lucky too
Who needs a tighter noose
Who needs a tighter noose

I know who you are
I know where you're going

So it's through
Nothing's left to lose
It's lucky too
Who needs a tighter noose
Who needs a tighter noose
Who needs a tighter noose
Who needs a tighter noose
Who needs a tighter noose
a tighter noose

Waiting To Panic - abandoned pools

What do I do to get your attention
What do I do to get this through
Not the cool kids clique
Not the cool fake hits
What do I do to break this silence
What do I do to make the noise
You prefer to hear
demand to hear

I'm sitting
I'm standing
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm walking
I'm running
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm waiting to panic
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
My head is exploding
Like an atom bomb
Like a mushroom cloud

What do I do to get your attention
What do I do to get this through
Mobs of idiots do what you're told to do
Get away from superstition
Get away from boogiemen
In the dark night sky
In the dark corner

I'm sitting
I'm standing
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm walking
I'm running
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm waiting to panic
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
My head is exploding

I'm sitting
I'm standing
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm walking
I'm running
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm waiting to panic
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
I'm thinking
My head is exploding
Like an atom bomb
Like a mushroom cloud

Hunting (The Universe Breaks My Heart) - abandoned pools

Ginny I know what love is now
I know what we could be
This time it will be different
This time you'll be happy

Stupid twisted irony
You know what your heart is worth
Cause I'm the one who trampled it
And pushed it in the dirt
In time we'll see what grows

I've been hunting through forests
through the fields
I've been sailing across the raging seas
I've been scaling the mountains
I have got to find a way to bring you home

Ginny I know what love is now
Give your heart for me to keep
This time I wont ruin your life
Or drink myself to sleep

Maybe we could settle down
And plant a tiny family tree
I'll rid myself of what troubles me
And set my little mind free
In time we'll see what grows

I've been hunting through forests
through the fields
I've been sailing across the raging seas
I've been scaling the mountains
I have got to find a way to bring you home
I've been building the tallest sky-scrapers
I've been spinning the earth the other way
I've been adding the numbers
I have got to find a way to bring you home

Ginny I know what love is now
I know what we could be
For what it's worth I love you
If its just too late for me
I've got only me to blame
I've got only me to blame

I've been hunting through forests
through the fields
I've been sailing across the raging seas
I've been scaling the mountains
I have got to find a way to bring you home
I've been building the tallest sky-scrapers
I've been spinning the earth the other way
I've been adding the numbers
I have got to find a way to bring you home

In time we'll see what grows
In time we'll see
what grows

Armed To The Teeth - abandoned pools

I am armed to the teeth
You can't hold me down
I've turned seething
into a hobby

Why is god out to get us
Can't we just be friends
I feel a twinge of righteousness
Like a corporate hedonist

Armed to the teeth
I'm ready
Go out and spend
Your money

The thugs are banging
in S.U.V.'s
My thoughts are changing into theories
The master of our destiny
Out in the graveyard of good ideas
That could have been the downfall of leaders
Yeah

Armed to the teeth
I'm ready
Go out and spend
Your money
Giants of industry
Come on come on and try to eat me
Armed to the teeth
I'm ready

What century
are you living in
An ancient puzzle piece
that won't fit in

Armed to the teeth
I'm ready
Go out and spend
Your money
Giants of industry
Come on come on and try to eat me
Armed to the teeth
I'm ready
I'm ready
I'm ready

Sooner Or Later - abandoned pools

Well sooner
or later
It's all coming down
I float
down a river
Above my own town
I will fight fire with fire
I will take an eye for every eye
I've got my finger on the trigger
I've got you in my sight

Well sooner
or later
It's all coming down
And high
above the city
I ride the wave down

And you won't be stopped till you crush me
And you won't be stopped till you kill us all
But I've got the ultimate weapon
I'm sick of dangling question marks

Well I've got my ducks in a row
Got my head on straight
Cause I know what's love
When the universe breaks my heart
Sooner or later it all comes out in the end
For now hell is all the people
cause the devil said so

Well I've got my ducks in a row
Got my head on straight
Cause I know what's love
When the universe breaks my heart
Sooner or later it all comes out in the end
For now hell is all the people
cause the devil said so

Sooner or later
Sooner or later
Sooner or later
Sooner or later
It's all coming down

I will fight fire with fire
I will take an eye for every eye
I've got my finger on the trigger
I've got you in my sights

Sailing Seas - abandoned pools

Damn this destiny
And damn this twist of fate
And damn its 5 A.M.
and I'm still awake
You're haunting me
I know it's hypocrisy
but this is not easy
And this is not what we were supposed to be

So holly
You should know that I'll be
Sailing seas of regret
I can't listen to that CD anymore

To hell with irony
To hell with subtlety
'Cause I don't have time
To mince words anymore
I was there
I'm crouched down in the hall
My ear up to the wall
I can hear you
forgetting about me

So holly
You should know that I'll be
Sailing seas of regret
I can't listen to that CD anymore

Holly
Wasn't very easy
When he took you from me
And I can't listen to that CD anymore
Since you walked out my door

Was it certain death
When he took off your dress
When he finished your cigarettes

So holly
You should know that I'll be
Sailing seas of regret
I can't listen to that CD anymore

Holly
Wasn't very easy
When he took you from me
I can't listen to that CD anymore

Renegade - abandoned pools

Scattered thoughts and scattering masses
The war has just begun
the bully pulpit never had so much fun

Like a wrecking ball held on a string
I'm a renegade who wants to get stomped
Like a wrecking ball held on a string
I'm a hammerhead who wants to get stopped
who wants to get stomped on

All I see are daisies for miles and miles
Lighting universes
The rappers in their limousines just want to be loved

Like a wrecking ball held on a string
I'm a renegade who wants to get served
Like a wrecking ball on a string
I'm a hammerhead who wants to get stopped
who wants to get stomped on

Take me back to days of summer
And give me all the simple things
I bet you got that tattooed on your lonely heart

Like a wrecking ball held on a string
I'm a renegade who wants to get stomped
Like a wrecking ball held on a string
I'm a hammerhead who wants to get stopped
who wants to get stomped on

Maybe Then Someday - abandoned pools

What's this thing that's haunting me
Won't my mind just let me be
With you I have to be so sober

Have our plans washed out to sea
Did we drown too easily
It's not sinking in that its over

Maybe then someday
Maybe then someday
Maybe then someday
Maybe then
Maybe then we'll make it right

If I rip you from my chest
Live my life like a scientist
Only logic will destroy me

I will pull apart my bones
To build a fire to keep you warm
And if that's not enough then its ok

Maybe then someday
After all this time
Maybe then someday
We got a lot to loose
Maybe then someday
Maybe then
Maybe then we'll make it right

Well maybe
Such a desperate word to say
And maybe
Gets me through another day
And maybe something's got a hold on you
Just maybe
Is becoming maybe not
Yeah.

Maybe then someday
After all this time
Maybe then someday
We got a lot to lose
Maybe then someday
After all this time
Maybe then someday
Maybe then
Maybe then we'll make it right
After all this time.

Goodbye Song - abandoned pools

Come on
I'm not washed up
And you're not back luck
For anyone

Come on
Things got dark
But now our story's just begun

If I was all that I could be
Would you then love me
Despite the history
Stupid things, I know the shame

If this is the end of us
I'll sing you this goodbye song
But if you're a lonely girl
You might as well come on home

Come on
What will it take till you see these are better days
Come on
What will it take for you to find out the hard way

If I was all that I could be
Would you then love me
Despite the history
Stupid things, I know the shame

If this is the end of us
I'll sing you this goodbye song
But if you're a lonely girl
You might as well come on home
You might as well come on home
Come home.
Come home.
Come home.

If this is the end of us
I'll sing you this goodbye song
But if you're a lonely girl
You might as well come on home
If this is the end of us
I'll sing you this goodbye song
But if you're a lonely girl
You might as well come on home
Come home.

Yeah.
I'm busting at the seams
To tell you everything
And it's scaring me
Cause nothing's sure
And nothing makes sense anymore
I'm busting at the seams
To tell you everything
And it's scaring me
Cause nothing's sure
and nothing makes sense anymore

Lucky - abandoned pools

It's not me
Find someone who loves you
And if not me
Find someone who knows who you are
They're just memories
They can get so mean
Little sacred things
Floating out to sea

I once knew a girl
She once knew me
We had our own world
My life was free

I loved someone
I set them free
They haven't yet come back to me
But if they do
I'll surely be
More lucky than anyone could be

An empty house
A sacrificial mouse
A head full of lead
Weighing all the things that she said

But I digress
My tunnel vision
Make me pay
I know what i'm missing

I once knew a girl
She once knew me
We had our own world
My life was free

I loved someone
I set them free
They haven't yet come back to me
But if they do
I'll surely be
More lucky than anyone could be

So won't you please
Find your way back to me
My one and only
Find your way back to me

I once knew a girl
She once knew me
We had our own world
I like what's free

I loved someone
I set them free
They haven't yet come back to me
But if they do
I'll surely be
More lucky than anyone could be

And if not me
Find someone who loves you

The Remedy - abandoned pools

I could use
A shot
Your novacaine
My soul's a fuse
Blows away your name

Then you can be the remedy
And I can be the enemy
And he can go and live as nothing
They you can be the wanna be
And I can be the remedy
And he can go to hell for all I care

Say this world is not so shallow
When you can't beg steal or borrow
Save your breath your soul is hollow
And it's all too much to swallow

Take this souvenir
They can't deny you were here
This scar always there
To medicate your fear

Mercy Kiss - abandoned pools

I'm outta sight around the moon
But I'll be back in time for you
I know it's strange but are you big enough?

Ok, you know this isn't right
I'm the bark that's to your bite
But I can't wait till you see the light

So I, I do it all for you
But I'm not asking for

You lead me on
I don't need your mercy kiss

I'm in and out of astral planes
The sliding doors I break the panes
I know it's strange so are you brave enough

Alright, like a quarterback I score
I'm the one they all adore
But I can't find what I'm looking for

I don't need your
I don't need it
I don't need your mercy kiss

Start Over - abandoned pools

What a mess our lives turned out to be
It was at its best when you and I were only 3
We can start with all the things that turn us out
And we can go right down the list and throw them out

Can we start over?
It's over

Here you are and there's where you wanna be
But don't think you don't have company
Think of all the lonely people in the world
And if it's God who made us why we so damn cruel

We can never lie
And you can never steal the time
And we can only watch them die
And we can never find out why

Monster - abandoned pools

Everyone's a genius
Brushing up on irony
But no, no one's free

Everyone's a salesman
Gushing with sincerity
Or so, so it seems

I wanna go another round
I wanna blow the monster down
I wanna go another round
Cos I am coming up
I am coming back

Everyone's a rockstar
Look how cool and dark you are
Oh, what's become of me now?

We'll bust out the mission
We'll bust the holier than thee
OK Then we'll be free

I wanna go another round
I wanna blow the monster down
I wanna go another round
Cos I am coming up
I am coming back

Lay me on the table operate on me
Spin me like a record scratch the needle back and forth

I wanna go another round
I wanna blow the monster down
I wanna go another round
Cos I am coming up
I am coming back

Blood - abandoned pools

I see the happy the family tree
It sways so easily
We're smiling all the time
This world just isn't mine

We watch it burn
And we never learn
This can't be what you're waiting for
Staring into the sun
We eat our young
This can't be what you're waiting for

Just take it easy on yourself
Forget all the stupid things we say
I know you beat up on yourself
I know it's in your blood

You say what no one understands
The seeds are in your hands
The branches break your bones
I can't just leave you alone
And watch you squirm

And I can't bring myself to look
I rip the pages from the book
And watch it burn

Suburban Muse - abandoned pools

Blue sky us holding down
There's no why
Only the sound of happy TV land
Cue the canned applause

Sidewalk fall through the cracks to China
Never get back
I'm nothing in these blues and laceless Velcro shoes

There used to be a reason why
We wrote the words across the sky
You and I will never die without a fight
My suburban muse

Green grass towering high
This white house, in it we'll die
A thousand tiny lies take the place of you
I've seen it too
In all the things you do
It lives inside of you
A parasite or two

I'm the king of ordinary things
They're killing me from inside out
I'll give it away

Between the cars on dusty streets
The cul de sac is where we meet
I crunch the leaves beneath my feet and curse this town
My suburban muse

Sunny Day - abandoned pools

Hiding inside a crowd
My head is inside a cloud
Go where the music's loud
And all these talking heads are
Blurred in violet hues

Another Sunny Day

She doesn't know wrong from right
She doesn't know when to fight
She only knows that tonight there's always someone out there
She'll never be alone

Another Sunny Day
C'mon get out

Get off the bathroom floor
Daddy's not here no more
I'm showing you to the door
Enough of always numb and always insecure

Hiding inside a cloud
Go where the music's loud
My head is inside a crowd
And all this talk of rock-stars really makes me sick

L.V.B.D. - abandoned pools

Welcome to the world
My little virgin baby doll
Can you save me?
I set you off
With the tip of my tongue
Spinning
Never coming back

I wanna dig for gold
Wear the crown of forever lost souls

I'll be nothing
Forever

Jill went up the hill
And gave herself the will
To kill her fear
Now she's unstoppable
Indestructable
The incorruptible
Forever lost soul

Just a mercy kiss
Born of emptiness
I'm so sick of this
And your fakin'...

Ruin Your Life - abandoned pools

Time to give it up
No one needs this any day
Your life's a half-filled cup
You'd never drink from anyway
Well I say

And if you want me to, I'd love to ruin your life
There's nothing else to do
Start a new
Ruin your life

Time to light the fuse
And watch your whole world come undone
Chaos soon ensues
Blow it all to kingdom come
Nice one

Say goodbye
Day after day you never ever crack a smile
You know it's easier to die
It's up to you

Never - abandoned pools

Well we never made it through another day
And it's all because you had to have it your way

So lucky you
I wonderin' when I'll be OK
If it's never than it's never

Well your mind is there but your heart is out to lunch
And it's all because your philosophy's just a hunch

T.V. time's over
Father's order

Seed - abandoned pools

Hey, you know I really liked your show
And hey, I know a place where we could go
And you don't have to do this if it's all you want is love
But hey, I know you really wanna go

How you wanna do this baby?
How you wanna go?
Fill up my emptiness it's you I wanna know
He's just a boy with a nasty seed to sew

There's no more grace to fall from
There's no where left to go but down

Flouresein - abandoned pools

Wipe away the summer air
You don't wanna see
That's you in that Photograph from 1973
And you don't even know me

God only Knows I wanna be
The other side of misery
Gimme a plate of Fluorescein
I'm gonna paint an ugly scene
All of the things I wanna say
Can't get a word out anyway
Falling away after today
Nothing to lose so come what may

Don't wake me

You got away from me somehow
And all we tried to be
Everything is different now
The mind's eye fails to see
And all we know is TV
