lyrics

fall in love---fall asleep—and dream forever
fall in love---fall asleep—and dream forever
fall in love---fall asleep—and dream forever
fall in love---fall asleep—and dream forever
fall in love---fall asleep—and dream forever
fall in love---fall asleep—and dream forever

I wanna fall in love---fall asleep—and dream forever
Fall together---and dissolve----and forget how to remember---our names---



Panned---

R-What are you runnin from--- L -what am I running from?
RWhat am I hiding from—- L what are you hiding from?

Why cant you let go of somethin worth tradin your marbols---for?—


-Im now down on all fours----
Im- layin vulnerable---
With the courage of a coward----
Im wearing your--bloody clothes----
The least you could do is show your teeth—and -fake a smile---
Abuse my power chord----plug----me in ---suck me dry----
stick needles in my pores----let all endorphins—flood---
give me permission to enjoy myself-just one more time—--
How can I finish if I don’t know where to start---uhh?
What good is vision—zhombie walking through the dark—Uhh?
Shadow boxing guilt----with a pillow and strap---to wrap my little silhouette--put a turnicate around my trance---extract the innocence---and serve—to--those who lack---

-How can I prove myself with your hands around my neck ---
take my self image for hostage—put a gun up to its head—
that’s a threat----that’s protection— you cant steal my high---
but I cant look down when Im laying on my back –no matter how hard I try---
But Im
comfortable to a comfort zone ----I’m confined--- desensitized—to a cultural design---dehumanized--accused--— mutilized since youth -scrutinized safe and sorry---safe and sound for crying outloud---suicide is useless—but I don't know what I have until I loose it--

But I can hear you muffled purring—whispering your precious prayer--I wanna pet your wet tears and hold them dearly to my chest--till the rest disappears—Im undressed behind the mirrors--on velvet—rug---polished up—I got no helmet on—and if all goes well---we’ll fall—---before we jump----



-but what have I become---
Ive never felt touch---
Maybe--I try to hard—NO---maybe I don’t—try—-- hard enough---
Some will want—a war—
im fighting-----handle out---
tucked back in a corner----
feeling average—curled up in a ball---

No more cold shoulders--- I’ve slowly become immune—to
im now pulling over—running—around---
On a quarter tank of recycled--fumes---and---
I m properly groomed---at the beauty pageants—and highly intoxicated----before the last---mutant---pursues—to illuminate—--enthusiasm—toward---more and more----attention---Ive paid in full wage---but I cant spend it all in one place ---besides---I have no more time--to waste-on—sensualistic episodes---
cuz-I detect the side effects---but still go back for refills-----now my minds a wreck my spine is bent----tear me down----and watch me rebuild----Eye to eye with the eye of the storm---at the speed of light with no windshield---Going astray outside the lines—that keep me in line-(now hows the wind feel)
Im —upset—been set up--force Fed—to swallow volatile fumes
tryin to puke out a rainbow---hung—upside down by my toes in this -cocoon--

two horns—and a halo---
imperfect--first person verse imaginary friend---
my fantasy's a sin---
for me its hurt be a nervous wreck---perfection never met---
for me it hurts to keep a balance underneath my heavy--skin---


its promising—to see the problems—at the end of fingertips—
but I still lack the fingerprints—to make a perfect match---
put me to the test---I promise not to cheat—pick up my teeth—AND ill make this mess more clean


don’t you wish it was just so—
something worth telling my offspring---
don’t you wish---I felt control---
for now--myself is all im offering---
Im naïve—smiling---highly amused--
Find me on the brighter side of things—
Tryin to Pull the other side of me through


Lips kiss themselves-
