With Butterfly Wings
Bullet With Butterfly Wings
The world is a vampire, sent to drain
Secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
And what do I get, for my pain
Betrayed desires, and a piece of the game
Even though I know-I suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold-like old Job
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Now I'm naked, nothing but an animal
But can you fake it, for just one more show
And what do you want, I want to change
And what have you got
When you feel the same
Even though I know-I suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold-like old Job
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me there's no other one
Jesus was an only son
Tell me I'm the chosen one
Jesus was an only son for you
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
...Said Sadly
You should
know that I love you
We should love like lovers do
And I can't help but fall for you
Oh honey, I'm just a fool
Now you know
Darling,
I'll never be true
You see, for so long I was blue
I'm not the lonely one
And if I hurt, then you will, too
Oh honey, I always lose
Now you know
Lover, when
will you?
I'm so afraid that no one cares
Lover, can't find you
I swear to God, don't leave me here
Now you know
Only you
know that it can't be
When no one else here really means
Anything to me
If you hurt inside
If you confide in me again
Since you
ran away
Hold me now, tell me how
Nothing's lost
Lover, when
will you?
I'm so afraid that no one cares
Lover, can't find you
And no one knows what brings us here
Lover
Hold me now
Hold me now
Tell me how
Nothing's lost
You're All I've Got Tonight
I don't
care if you hurt me some more
I don't care if you even the score
Well you
can knock me, I don't care
And you can mock me, I don't care
And you can rock me just about anywhere
It's alright
Cause you're
all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
I need you,
tonight
I need you, tonight
I don't
care if you use me again
I don't care if you abuse me again
And you
can make me, I don't care
And you can fake me, I don't care
And you can love me just about anywhere
It's alright
Cause you're
all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
I need you,
tonight
I need you, tonight
I don't
wanna feel sorry for you
You don't have to make believe it's you
Well you
can pump me, I don't care
And you can bump me, I don't care
And you can love me just about anywhere
It's alright
Cause you're
all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
I need you,
tonight
I need you, tonight
I need you, tonight
I need you, tonight
Clones (We're All)
I'm a clone
I know I'm fine
I'm one and more are on the way
I'm two, doctor
Three's on the line
He'll take incubation another day
I'm all
alone, so are we all
We're all clones
All are one and one are all
All are one and one are all
We destroyed
the government
We're destroying time
No more problems on the way
I'm through
doctor
We don't need your kind
The other ones
Ugly ones
Stupid boys
Wrong ones
I'm all
alone, so are we all
We're all clones
All are one and one are all
All are one and one are all
Six is having
problems
Adjusting to his clone status
Got to put him on the shelf
All day long we hear him crying so loud
I just wanna be myself
I just wanna be myself
I just wanna be myself
Be myself, be myself
I'm a clone
I know I'm fine
I'm one and more are on the way
I'm two, doctor
Three's on the line
He'll take incubation another day
I'm all
alone, so are we all
We're all clones
All are one and one are all
All are one and one are all
I'm all alone, so are we all
We're all clones
All are one and one are all
All are one and one are all
I'm all alone, so are we all
A Night Like This
Say goodbye
on a night like this
If it's the last thing we ever do
You never looked as lost as this
Sometimes it doesn't even look like you
It goes dark
It goes darker still
Please stay
But I watch you like I'm made of stone
As you walk away
I'm coming
to find you if it takes me all night
A witch hunt for another girl
For always and ever is always for you
Your trust
The most gorgeously stupid thing I ever cut in the world
Say hello
on a day like today
Say it everytime you move
The way that you look at me now
Makes me wish I was you
It goes deep
It goes deeper still
This touch
And the smile and the shake of your head
I'm coming
to find you if it takes me all night
Can't stand here like this anymore
For always and ever is always for you
I want it to be perfect
Like before
I want to change it all
I want to change
Destination Unknown
Life is
so strange,
When you don't know,
How can you tell,
Where you're goin' to?
You can't
be sure,
of any situation,
Somethin' could change,
And then you wont know
You ask
yourself,
Where do we go from here?
It seems so ultra-near
Just as far beyond as I can see,
I still don't know what this all means to me
You tell
yourself,
I have nowhere to go,
I don't know what to do,
And I don't even know the time of day
I guess it doesn't matter anyway
Life is
so strange
Destination unknown,
When you don't know your destination
If something could change,
It's unknown
And then you wont know,
Destination unknown
Life is
so strange,
Destination unknown
When you don't know your destination
If something could change,
It's unknown
And then you wont know,
Destination unknown
You ask
yourself,
When will my time come?
Has it all been said and done?
I know I'll leave when it's my time to go,
Til then I'll carry on with what I know
Life is
so strange,
Destination unknown
When you don't know your destination
If something could change,
It's unknown
And then you wont know,
Destination unknown
Life is
so strange,
Destination unknown
When you don't know your destination
If something could change,
It's unknown
And then you wont know,
Destination unknown
Life is
so strange,
Life is so strange,
Life is so strange,
Life is so strange,
Life is so strange
Life is
so strange,
Life is so strange,
Life is so strange,
Life is so strange,
Life is so strange,
Life is so strange,
Life is so strange,
Life is so strange
Dreaming
When I met
you in the restaurant
You could tell I was no debutante
You asked me what's my pleasure
"A movie or a measure"?
I'll have a cup of tea and tell you of my dreaming
Dreaming is free
I don't
want to live on charity
Pleasure's real or is it fantasy?
Reel to reel is living rarity
People stop and stare at me
We just walk on by, we just keep on dreaming
Feet feet
walking a two mile
Meet meet meet me at the turnstile
I never met him I'll never forget him
Dream dream
even for a little while
Dream dream filling up an idle hour
Fade away, radiate
I sit by
and watch the river flow
I sit by and watch the traffic go
Imagine something of your very own,
Something you can have and hold
I'd build a road in gold just to have some dreaming
Dreaming is free
shakedown
1979, cool kids never have the time
on a live wire right up off the street
you and i should meet
junebug skipping like a stone
with the headlights pointed at the dawn
we were sure we'd never see an end to it all
and i don't even care to shake these zipper blues
and we don't know
just where our bones will rest
to dust i guess
forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
double cross the vacant and the bored
they're not sure just what we have in the store
morphine city slippin dues down to see
that we don't even care as restless as we are
we feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
and poured cement, lamented and assured
to the lights and towns below
faster than the speed of sound
faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope
justine never knew the rules,
hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
no apologies ever need be made, i know you better than you fake it
to see that we don't care to shake these zipper blues
and we don't know just where our bones will rest
to dust i guess
forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
the street heats the urgency of sound
as you can see there's no one around
Ugly
i don't
look in the mirror
i don't like what i see staring back at me
everything is clearer
i'll never see what you see
it's not me
so beautiful and free
i'll never be what you need
can't help at all
i was born so beautiful
but now i'm ugly
and i rot
in my skin
as a piece of me dies everyday
i know i'm nothing
i know there's nothing i can say
to change
the judgment in their ways
i'll never be what you need
can't help at all
my love was so beautiful
but now i'm ugly
yeah...
i'm good
enough, but i don't care
i'm good enough, but i'm not there
i'm good enough, but i don't care
the sun is out, but i'm not there
(i can go
anywhere) i'm good enough, but i don't care (...somewhere)
(i can go anywhere) the sun is out, but i'm not there (...somewhere)
(i can go anywhere) i'm good enough (...somewhere)
(i can go anywhere) i'm good enough (...somewhere)
i don't
look in the mirror
i don't like what i see staring back at me
everything is clearer
i'll never see what you see
and i rot in my skin
as a piece of me dies everyday
i know i'm nothing
because i'm ugly
The Boy
i can't
stop, i can't breathe, i can't think
i'm in love again
i don't need, i don't eat, i don't sleep
i'm in love again
ooh, and
every time i heard you breathe
i sighed
ooh, and
every time i saw you bleed
i cried
love is like a song
and if you sing
if you ever need me
i'll be there, and i-
i can't
stop, can't breathe, can't think
i'm in love again
i don't need, i don't eat, i don't sleep
i'm in love again
ooh, and
every time that i'm with you
i'm alive
ooh, and every time i think of you
there's a light
and i felt it, too
and my heart
is a spring
is a well, if you need
if you drink it for you
then i'm leavin'
every little part of me is a part of you
i can't
stop, i can't breathe, i can't think
i'm in love again
i don't need, i don't eat, i don't sleep
i'm in love again
i can't stop, i can't breathe, i can't think
i'm in love again
i don't need, i don't eat, i don't sleep
i'm in love again
the boy, the boy's in love
the boy, the boy's in love
the boy, the boy's in love
the boy, the boy's in love
Cherry
stay with
me, i'll set you free
'cause i can tell you once were pretty
rose so sad you've lost your petals
and lost the luster of your tattle tales
i need a
love to help me find my way
i need a strength that i cannot betray
i need a word to say what i can't say
i need a lover, lover
i need a lover, lover
what are
we waiting for?
what are we waiting for?
time has lost its hold on me
hatred sleeps inside my bones
in the stillness
of cool air
all the boys have been left for dead
'cause we know where they fear to tread
the beautiful ones, the ones we'll remember
the precious ones, our greatest pretenders
i need a
love to help me find my way
i need a strength that i cannot betray
i need a word to say what i can't say
i need a lover, lover
i need a lover, lover
and if you
lose yourself
could you take me, too?
could you rest inside the sleep?
stay with
me, i'll set you free from you
Believe
close your
eyes
until the sunlight dies
in your head a thousand stars
through the darkness you can see love light
and if they steal your light
your heart is still in mine
i want to
believe in you and i heard you
your song, you sing, a truth is no other
i want to believe in you, dear
of someday...
there's
a life i hide
but i try to disguise
and i could take you a million miles away
i want to
believe in you and i heard you
your song, you sing, a truth is no other
i want to believe in you, dear
on sunday
i made amends
of all my mistakes
may godspeed be with you
and i...
i want to believe in you and i heard you
your song, you sing, a truth is no other
i want to believe in you and i heard you
your song, you sing, a truth is no other
i want to believe in you and i heard you
your song, you sing, a truth, a lover
i want to believe in you and i heard you
your song, you sing, a truth, is no other
i want to believe in you, dear
of someday...
on sunday
i make amends
for all my mistakes
may godspeed be with you
Set The Ray To Jerry (Corgan)
born to
please, every simple need
i stand alone, and my thoughts indeed hate you
for ever making me
i'm in you, i'll be anything
and i want
you
and i need you
and all you are is brand new
and i need you
come to
me, let me hold you still
i'm so tired, just as tired as you
take me for anyone but me
all that you feel is never true
and i want you
and i need
you
and all you are is brand new
and i need you
when you
say that you are
forever my star
i'll never let you go, no, no
i'll never let you know
let roar
these feelings
to the whore of my tears
pure as a light, poured into your eyes
suck you like the sap from a tree
honey from the dew, from the bumblebees, yeah yeah
and i want
you
and i need you
and all you are is brand new
and i need you
when you
say that you are
forever my star
i'll never let you go, no, no
i'll never let you know
and i want
you
and i need you
and all you are is brand new
and i need you
my reflection,
dirty mirror
there's no connection to myself
i'm your lover, i'm your zero
i'm the face in your dreams of glass
so save
your prayers
for when we're really gonna need 'em
throw out your cares and fly
wanna go for a ride?
she's the
one for me
she's all i really need
cause she's the one for me
emptiness
is loneliness
and loneliness is cleanliness
and cleanliness is godliness
and god is empty
just like me
intoxicated
with the madness
i'm in love with my sadness
bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms
the fashion victims chew their charcoal teeth
i never
let on
that i was on a sinking ship
i never let on that i was down
you blame
yourself
for what you can't ignore
you blame yourself for wanting more
she's the
one for me
she's all i really need
oh yeah she's the one for me
she's my one and only
God
god knows
i'm helpless
to speak on my own behalf
god is as helpless as me
caught in the negatives
we all just
do as we please
false transmissions
i hope god forgives me
for my transgressions
it's what
you want
to know no consequences
it's what you need
to fucking bleed
it's all
too much
god knows i'm helpless
god knows
i'm restless and weak
full of piss and vinegar
god knows we sow what we reap
in the dirt of grandeur
when the
darkness comes to me
and it fixes its gaze on me
god knows i'm helpless
it's what
you want
to know no consequences
it's what you need
to fucking bleed
it's all
too much
god knows i'm helpless
you break
your back
for what you can't have
you can't turn back
god knows i'm helpless
Mouths Of Babes
so here
we are
true superstars we're so
real from afar and now
now you're with us now
and the
mouths of babes sing revolution
and the mouths of babes scream disillusion
you can't break what's already broken
cause from the mouths of babes comes nothing
the "dream"
was a sham
for saving what you can't and now
they're me but i'm not them i am
you and you are me
it's in
the ways i walk thru fire
it's in the ways of my desire
and when i said that you're no good
but what i meant was i wish you could
be there
forever
be young forever i wish you could
be there
so now i
bid farewell
beyond the bounds of hell and now
you'll swear you knew us well well
you can never tell
and the
mouths of babes sing revolution
and the mouths of babes scream disillusion
you can't break what's already broken
cause from the mouths of babes comes nothing

Marquis
In Spades
and i'd love you to notice
i'm devoted
to destroy for no one
now it's
that time again
to take revenge
on all the debutantes
and their friends
the bitter
charlamanges
so self absorbed
the bodily remains
such a bore
was i good enough to break you
and all i see is empty
cause now
i'm one of them
so adored
the slink of impotence that
money can afford
we know
who you are
and where you live
is your innocence
all that you can give
was i good enough to break you
in the back
of the car
the angel dust was given back
to the stars
was it good enough to break you
and in this
fall from grace
we'll meet again another time another place
i've been down deep in you and me
let's see where we can go
angels
barbed wire
fuck you
desire
Pennies
and i stumbled
onto you
as you stumbled over me
and you say the fates were cruel
for throwing us together
i always loved you so
especially when you'd go
all the
world must know
all the world must know
that i loved you so
it's a pity
we're apart
it's shame you broke my heart
but i've got a new girlfriend
she looks alot like you dear
no one could ever do dear
all the
world must know
that i loved you so
especially when you'd go
especially when you'd go
especially when you'd go away and leave me here
and go away and leave me alone
all the world must know

Pastichio Medley
[instrumental song splices]
Tonight,
Tonight
Tonight, Tonight
time is
never time at all
you can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth
and our lives are forever changed
we will never be the same
the more you change the less you feel
believe, believe in me, believe
that life can change, that you're not stuck in vain
we're not the same, we're different tonight
tonight, so bright
tonight
and you know you're never sure
but you're sure you could be right
if you held yourself up to the light
and the embers never fade in your city by the lake
the place where you were born
believe, believe in me, believe
in the resolute urgency of now
and if you believe there's not a chance tonight
tonight, so bright
tonight
we'll crucify the insincere tonight
we'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonight
we'll find a way to offer up the night tonight
the indescribable moments of your life tonight
the impossible is possible tonight
believe in me as i believe in you, tonight
Meladori Magpie
And on her
doorstep I saw that I was blind
I'd forsaken what was life
What it mattered, mattered little now
We had shattered, but somehow
I can't
help but stay the same
I'll remain true to thy name
Time to
get up and take the long walk home
For the first time I go alone
Do you remember when we first met
Chasing down the alleyways behind my debt
I can't
help but stay the same
I remain true to the name of lovers past
I could not lose, I could not choose you too
I can't
help but stay the same
I remain true to the name of lovers past
(I) could not lose, (I) could not choose you too
Rotten Apples
Dirty your
face with longing and grace, God-given
Suffer her heart and love her when your love goes unrequited
Where the
cool winds blow I must surely go
For my love calls me lo to drag her from the depths of my soul
When will I see her again?
The other side of friends
The darkened clouds of death
The empty-breathed desire
Dirty your
face with longing and grace, God-given
Suffer her heart and love her when your love goes unrequited
Restless
in my speech
And ruthless in my teach
So vacant in my breach,
I drive the dirt of her garden
Sorrow
She'll never listen again
No other lovers to bend
Just rotten apples to eat
Slathered yellow distant scorn
Dirty your
face with longing and grace, God-given
Suffer her heart and love her when your love goes unrequited
Life just
fades away
Purity just begs
Dust to dust we're wired into sadness
Jupiter's Lament
Gone, long
gone
We can all be gone, gone, gone
Leave this world all wrong, wrong, wrong
Leave it far behind
And although
my secret's gone I'll try to carry on
If I must, I'll get along without you
Gone, long
gone
Leave this world all wrong, wrong, wrong
Beyond the pale beyond the dawn
Free these mortal bonds
No one knows
I can't be wrong
So I'll sing the same old songs
I try to be strong for you
Why have
you left me
Amongst the tall trees
I know I gave her all I have
And I tied
her heart in ribbons
Tied her heart in ribbons
Tied her heart in ribbons and bows
And I'm
gone
Oh yes, I'm gone
And I'm lost without you
I'm lost within you
And I'm gone, so gone, long gone
Medellia Of The Gray Skies
You're an
empty promise
You're an easy chair
You're the god's forces
Struck down somewhere
You're a
secret notice
You're a mystery sky
You're a wish floating
Up to the night
Medellia
of my eyes
You're the emptiness of love
You're the reason that I write
And if you say you will
I will love you still
And if I
could
I'd throw away this world
I'd dress you all in pearls
I'd give you what you wanted
You're all
I notice
In a crowded room
You're vacant motives
Unmoved
Medellia
of my eyes
You're the emptiness of love
You're the reason that I try
And if you say you will
I will love you still
And if I
just could
Be anything for you
Just anyone at all
Anything that mattered washed out
You're the
silly reasons
In a goldfish lair
You're the angel ceilings
At rest, at last
Blank
I wish I
was blank
I wish I was blank
I wish I could thank
I wish I was blank
I'd write
a letter to you
And there'd be nothing to it
I wouldn't hem and haw
On just how to start it
I wish I
was blank
I wish I was blank
I wish I could thank
I wish I was blank
I wish I'd
stand up straight
I wish I'd said things different
I wish I'd said nothing
Things would be so perfect
I wish myself to keep
I pray my soul to sleep
I wish myself away
I wish I was blank
Tonite Reprise
and the
embers never fade in my city by the lake
the place where i was born
as the wind-up toys wind down
muffling the sound of a life hidden underground
believe, believe in me, believe
that you can change, that you're not stuck in vain
we're not the same we're different tonite
we'll crucify the insincere tonite
we'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonite
the impossible is possible tonite
believe in me like i believe in you tonite
speak to
me in a language i can hear
humour me before i have to go
deep in thought i forgive everyone
as the cluttered streets greet me once again
i know i can't be late, supper's waiting on the table
tomorrow's just an excuse away
so I pull my collar up and face the cold, on my own
the earth laughs beneath my heavy feet
at the blasphemy in my old jangly walk
steeple guide me to my heart and home
the sun is out and up and down again
i know i'll make it, love can last forever
graceful swans of never topple to the earth
and you can make it last, forever you
you can make it last, forever you
and for a moment i lose myself
wrapped up in the pleasures of the world
i've journeyed here and there and back again
but in the same old haunts i still find my friends
mysteries not ready to reveal
sympathies i'm ready to return
i'll make the effort, love can last forever
graceful swans of never topple to the earth
tomorrow's just an excuse
and you can make it last, forever you
you can make it last, forever you
The Last Song
this is
the last song
this is the last song i'll sing for you
this is the last song
this is the last song i can give you
the roaring city sleeps
metal fingers clutching dirty sheets
and no one comes for free
in this place where the angels sleep
this is the last song
my eyes are open wonder to this
as you hold the secrets
i count the minutes off so perfectly
the chards of broken glass
sing the strains of a sad old tune
we've made it at last
but what we had is lost inside our past
this is the last song
could you find away across me
to forgive and forget me
to appease and relent me
to deceive and detect me
to understand and release me
to the dawn
this is the last song
The Aeroplane Flies High (Turns Left, Looks Right)
love is
a sentimental heart
life is a sentimental way
spy the fragile heart so cursed
as he walks across this earth
i'm disconnected by your smile
disconnect a million miles
and what you promised me
i hope will set you free
i'm disconnected by your smile
and all i gave to you is lost
and all you took from me is lost
black wings carry me so high
up to meet you in the sky
i'm disconnected by your smile
disconnect a million miles
and what you promised me
i hope will set you free
i'm disconnected by your smile
wishing you were real to me
wishing i could make believe
i'll take my secrets to the grave
safely held beneath the waves
always knew i couldn't save
always knew i couldn't save you
Transformer
a livewire
moves slow
a transformer always knows
the score is four
leaves you hanging on the floor
for more and less and more of the blame
and she's tired
and she's sick of the same old shit
it's just more of the same old same
i know she wants more and more and more to witness
to lay down and bear true
a cherry onion firefly
tastes sweet and white
as you are blue
knows just what she wants to do
with you below the silver skies
don't hate her because she's undecided
and she's tired
and she's sick of the same old shit
it's just more of the same old same
i know she wants more and more and more to stomach
in honor of her youth
she's not sorry she's happy
sorry she's happy
she's not sorry she's happy
sorry she's happy as a turtle
she's a real live transformer
The Bells
ooh the
bells are ringing out
what a sound
ooh the bells are ringing out
what a sound
and i'm in love
the joy of love
the coming of
jesus
jesus
did you call my name
never ever felt afraid
did you hold onto
did you make it thru
you
there's so much doubt in every heart
for all our faults we carry on
jesus
jesus i ran away
i got so scared
i made mistakes
will i hold onto
will i make it thru
ooh the bells are ringing out
what a sound
My Blue Heaven
day is ending
birds are wending
back to their shelter of
each little nest they love
night shade's
falling
lovebirds calling
what makes the world go round
nothing but love
when whippoorwills
call
and evening is night
i hurry to my blue heaven
i turn to
the right
a little white light
will lead you to my blue heaven
you'll see
a smiling face, a fireplace, a cozy room
a little nest that's nestled where the roses bloom
just molly
and me
and baby makes three
we're happy in my blue heaven
you'll see
a smiling face, a fireplace, a cozy room
a little nest that's nestled where the roses bloom
just molly
and me
and baby makes three
we're happy in my blue heaven
