Part Time Love

Part time love, yea I got that part time love
But that part time stuff's not good enough
I need the full time cuffs
That I been dreamin of
Because that part time stuff's not enough
Yea that part time love, no - not good enough
Anything you want for that mess, and I'll offer mine
Soaking slowly with those hazardous eyes
Put me at peace in your primordial pit
Cleanse me - yea I can handle it
I can't stay cool, I've tried
If I could find some..
Black sunshine, yea I want that black sunshine
Cuz that soft white light - far too shy
I need that reckless touch
That I been dreamin of
Because that soft white stuff's not enough
Yea that part time love, no - not good enough

There's a jukebox in Bywater that'll steal your sons and daughters cause it's so good that it feels like a God
And the wandering romantics want that obsolete enchantment so they put the dollars in and can't stop
Let the red fumes pull ya down south, we could disappear and turn it out
She's a bloodsucker with a silk mouth, make your eyes sweat, drink you up and spit you out
Love in the age of potpourri, baby wants her bottle and an mp3
A scary thing about being free: all your bad ideas have the space to breathe
A white wall
The black fly
A strange trip
This good life

Strange Brush
05:32
|
|||
Strange brush paints me in ways that feel strange
Cold touch colors the look so deranged
Spring is the loneliest season, where newness is always allowed
I shake my old dreams in new rhythms, but heaven will never make sound
What can we do with the crowns of kingdoms that never worked out?
I fell in deep with it, struggled to see through the crowed noise
Strange brush paints me in ways that feel strange
Cold touch colors the look so deranged
I slept on the knife of your life line, it cut away all my desire
The changes we'd make in each other, if heaven would only make sound
You fell in love with a crowd, but group love so rarely works out
Careful to speak it it, I lost my peace in the crowd noise
[Rest your body next to mine, I'll get right
just a picture of you and I - can't tonight]
The creatures released from their caves
Can't find the feeling the winter unmade
I try to lose problems I've saved
But I can't look real in this light, I can't tonight

Girlfriend tell me what you did, I don't have the time to worry who you kissed
I been spending my whole day, in a phased out haze
You say we feel outta touch, but gimme some more time I'm back within a month
I know you don't like to wait, but this love is not a race
So take that watch that's on your wrist, hide it in a drawer and don't let it exist
I will shine within your shade, until you feel awake
It's no road that I'd run without a curve
So baby would you come in close at the turn
And let a different love song pass your lips
Or we might suffer shipwreck with the ship
Without love you're just a stupefied dove
Let me linger in your dreams, there's all the other guys but I'm the one you need
Baby you stay in my thoughts, but is that enough?
All the songs that i could sing to show you that I feel this - would they change a thing?
No matter which way this wind blows you know I'm coming home

Lafayette
03:16
|
|||
All good children hit the ground
Shouting madly at their dreams
In Lafayette they search the clouds
But mother's milk is in the streets
How did I go blind? How did I go so blind?
How do I get down?
Strange new faces come in threes
Always passing with a song
King James and his special beans
Come to turn the night lights on
When did I go blind? When did I get so blind?
How do I get down?

Gloomsday
04:44
|
|||
Such modern feelings as live outside can best be hunted with a very long drive
You wanna go? Then let's go. That's when the rubber really hits the road
Turn up the speakers, forget the rain, strike a pose that makes your body unchain
Nothing to run from, nothing to hide, close your eyes and taste it as if it were a crime
We need a drug they can't prescribe - midnight in the garden of our shallow delights
Hey can we make it to the club on time? We gotta sneak it, sneak it, sneak it on the 99
Seattle clouds - such strange desires
I tried to show you but your brain's barbwired
We need the shadow it reveals the light
I wanna take you to the party tonight

Playtime
04:02
|

Let's pretend we're art from heaven, you be Bosch and I'll be Rodin
Eyeing all your lovely shapes
Golden apples twice deceived me, bound my hands and suckled neatly
Wait until you suffer mine!
Gotta clear out, let this ride
And I shut my eyes
Heavy clouds soaked in the air, let's enjoy but soon beware
Those dripping daydreams
Why have fun just in the night? Now I see such clear delights
Like the beat of the drum it's...
Playtime - ya never have to leave the house
Good god when we freak out ya never have to leave the house
Playtime - dripping from the mouth
Oh no did we go out? We should've never left the house..
Wait! let me grab my tape recorder, we'll sing about this pink new order
Easing all our worried minds
Strange definition health condition, two funny faces on a mission
Never knowing what we'll find
Ah! We gotta live falling down.
With such a curious mind..
Oh no I'm stuck in the ground

Underground
05:20
|

Gimme what you need, I've been working overtime
Carrie caught the fever strong this time
That dark touch was burning too too bright
So Van sat vigil through the night
Through the night for her
Diamond danced a while in a dangerous place
She never cared what other people say
Till she met Maxi in the backstage
And they never danced again
For your love (I'm underground)
Jesse lost his job at the record store
Left him feeling far from hardcore
But Gigi waited at his door
At his door with gin
Bobby bummed around in an aimless state
The breakup became too much to escape
So Derek drove him outta state
To pull him from the mud

Dance Like You Wanna Die
03:04
|
|||
Is there a love song that cares whose mind she's on?
Does it answer her prayer when you sing along?
When you dance like you wanna die
She's heaven every time
She slows it down and turns out your lights
Leaving your mouth like a sigh wanders back into the night
Is there a secretive hope you'll lose your spark?
As she hangs like a star waiting for dark.
