Sometimes, I Swear
03:38

i’m caught in the good fight
i start to feel small
when the gravity hits me
i’ve got nowhere to fall
i’ve got nowhere at all
sometimes, i swear, it feels like i don’t belong anywhere
i swear, sometimes, it feels like i don’t belong anywhere
sometimes, i swear
sometimes i don’t belong anywhere
you can't keep your day job
and you - you can’t find your feet
say your best work’s behind you
still you hate looking weak
more gods than the greeks
sometimes, i swear, it feels like i don’t belong anywhere
i swear, sometimes, it feels like i don’t belong anywhere
sometimes, i swear
sometimes i don’t belong anywhere
sometimes, i swear, it feels like i don’t belong anywhere
i swear, sometimes, it feels like i don’t belong anywhere
sometimes, i swear
sometimes i don’t belong anywhere

Heartbreak Kid
03:00

you heavy hitter
when you cried on the sky you made it glitter
the moon in your eye
you were childlike
but you didn’t care
so now you scream it
saying ‘this is goodbye’ but you don’t mean it
always calling your bluff
why believe it?
there isn’t the time
but people like us think we got all time in the world
let your heart break kid
let your heart break kid
till you’re feeling it
let your heart break kid
oh you never thought they’d leave you but they did
now everybody calls you the heartbreak kid
and you can't believe they really called it quits
and you never thought that you would be the heartbreak kid
you got undressed
you stepped into the fire out of protest
now everything burns
and you blew it
it was right on your lips
so now you’re waiting
its a function of time oscillating
you've got nowhere to go
when you’re growing
the road never ends
and people like us think we got all time in the world
let your heart break kid
let your heart break kid
till you’re feeling it
let your heart break kid
oh you never thought they’d leave you but they did
now everybody calls you the heartbreak kid
and you can't believe they really called it quits
and you never thought that you would be the heartbreak kid
people like us think we got all the time in the world
but you ain’t got all the time in the world
let your heart break kid
let your heart break kid
till you’re feeling it
let your heart break kid

Lunar Eclipse

i could dream i won you back
cos new york’s an insomniac
it wouldn’t even know where it should look
but i just need a little time
to fatten up the fish i’m frying
so how about you let me off the hook
i’m in trouble again
really in for it - ain't it?
nearly died on the 10
now i don’t feel like the same
look what you started
is this what you wanted
you took me to the desert
and left me there haunted
now i don’t really know if i deserve redemption
but i don’t need another reason making me feel bad
oh no
why can't we just be ourselves
when it does wonders for your health
and all you’ve got to do is take it slow
cos time starts burning at both ends
and pocket dialing famous friends
and acting like there’s somewhere else to go
but i’m in trouble again
really in for it - ain’t i
nearly died on the fence
now i don’t feel like the same
look what you started
is this what you wanted
you took me to the desert
and left me there haunted
now i don’t really know if i deserve redemption
but i don’t need another reason making me feel bad
oh no
we took a trip under the lunar eclipse
the road fell and twisted into cracks in our lips
started with nothing but we ended like this
out on a trip under the lunar eclipse

maybe we should on dancing
maybe we should on dancing
i feel like something good is gonna happen
don’t care if i’m the last one standing
i’ve been thinking about all the times you used to fill my streets
until i got deserted like i’m boarded up with nowhere to eat
maybe i’m looking for a willem de kooning at the discount store
i would buy anything, try anything, take anything to feel some more
its gonna eat me up
its gonna eat me up
so maybe we should on dancing
maybe we should on dancing
i feel like something good is gonna happen
don’t care if i’m the last one standing
even if the song is all gone and it’s the end of the world
no nothing’s gonna stop us, gonna stop us now
so we should on dancing
maybe we should on dancing on and on
started filling up cracks in the calendar with discontent
double checking junk to see where the apologies went
the best thing that i had since records began
i would do anything, take anything, i’m so machiavellian
its gonna eat me up
its gonna eat me up
don’t know what i’ll do now my luck is all spent
and i wish i had you here, tell me what it all meant,
to get to grips
serenading the apocalypse
maybe we should on dancing
maybe we should on dancing
i feel like something good is gonna happen
don’t care if i’m the last one standing
i’ve tried to move on but nothing compares
i’m ready for anything, i’m not going anywhere
i’m playing it cool but i’m so damn scared
and i’m ready for anything i’m not going anywhere
maybe we should on dancing
maybe we should on dancing
i feel like something good is gonna happen
don’t care if i’m the last one standing

Primitive Man

even when you get hurt
you don’t ever feel pain
you’re committed to a good time
all i do is i complain
i wanna feel better
as soon as i can
and i want you of course
but it just never goes to plan
there is gold in the mouth of the silvery sky
with a head full of ice and a drink in its eye
as i vomit - your primitive man
i promise you - i’m changing, i am
and my love flickers but it remains
i’m at your wedding now - you’re not taking my name
i don’t wanna go down
i don’t wanna decline
hey - no worries if we do though
all my favourite people die
i wanna get better
as soon as can
and you know me of course
i just don’t know who i am
there is gold in the mouth of the silvery
with a head full of dread and a drink in its eye
as i vomit - your primitive man
i promise you - i’m changing, i am
and my love flickers but it remains
i’m at your wedding now - you’re not taking my name
as i vomit - your primitive man
i promise you - i’m changing, i am
and my love flickers but it remains
i’m at your wedding now - still don’t know why i came

you said ‘suck my blood’ out your middle finger
hearts of glass, start to give you splinters
act like i remind you of the winter
dammit - you’re so cold
talk that way, it’s like you got a death wish
if you died we’d all just call you selfish
get so low but like it when you’re devilish
don’t i - i was sold
we were lying on the grass in reality
we were surfing down a wave of anxiety
we were hiding from the air filling up our lungs
as the sun kissed - kissed us with tongues
the wind ran through our forever hair
with its hands pressed up against us almost everywhere
and our skin kept getting hotter as we came undone
we were sun kissed - sun kissed with tongues
we were so in love, we booked into the hilton
grew my beard to look like dennis wilson
stayed six weeks, the world would never listen
honey - (what a blast)
tangled up somewhere in the bedsheets
ate my words and i gave you the best seats
went so fast, the time was like an athlete
funny - never lasts
i saw the truth as it came into view, that id only seen from afar
we’re sorry sir but if you’re not a guest then we cant let you drink at the bar
we were lying on the grass in reality
we were surfing down a wave of anxiety
we were hiding from the air filling up our lungs
as the sun kissed - kissed us with tongues
the wind ran through our forever hair
with its hands pressed up against us almost everywhere
and our skin kept getting hotter as we came undone
we were sun kissed - sun kissed with tongues
and i fell asleep on you
with the man who fell to earth
still an hour from the end
you began to feel afraid
but you weren’t allowed to smoke
so you held me like cement

Another Nightmare
03:05

you announced to the stadium that
you knew that you were leaving and you’d never come back
even for love
it wasn’t enough
and now you’re living by whatever you’ve read
if you wanted to escape then you should have just said
go to rome for the week
cos you never there with me
i was trying to smile
but got blood on the tiles
it was taken away with the evidence
i thought i was awake
must have been a mistake
now you’ve run out of patience
i don’t wanna wait a year to feel better
taking everything to forget ya
living in echos so mellow
another nightmare
i don’t want the hate and anger they gave me
all pills and percocets daily
numbing and running to nothing
just another nightmare
if i ran then i didn’t get far
just a little plus one to the really big star
mothering me
begging you not to leave
roll your eyes and you call me bruce wayne
say with all my years of therapy i should be mark twain
will i know when i'm dead
if you beckon me back to bed
i was trying to smile
but got blood on the tiles
it was taken away with the evidence
shouldn’t talk about that
fell asleep on your lap
as you ran out of patience
i don’t wanna wait a year to feel better
taking everything to forget ya
living in echos so mellow
another nightmare
i don’t want the hate and anger they gave me
all pills and percocets daily
numbing and running to nothing
just another nightmare
they don’t have to look like you do if they know

all night, all night waiting for you
inside, outside gated and
behind the bars i’m waiting for you
all night baby
all night
you said we should go get coffee
tell me you don’t need nobody

you’re so sad, so what we’re all sad
sweet thing
i hope that you find that feeling
how come you’re always leaving
you love to walk away
ooooh
how are you sleeping?
it don’t looking like you’ve been eating
we both know where this is leading
you love to walk away
you love to walk away
all night, all night waiting for you
three flights, dehydrated and
i send cars - they all keep waiting for you
all night baby
all night
you said we should go get coffee
tell me you don’t need nobody
heard it before - photocopy
you’re so sad, so what we’re all sad
sweet thing
i hope that you find that feeling
how come you’re always leaving
you love to walk away
ooooh
how are you sleeping?
it don’t looking like you’ve been eating
we both know where this is leading
you love to walk away

i was never gonna leave you twisted
i was never gonna leave you there, yeh
with you tryna raise a child that i didn’t wanna know
we were bleeding out our beautiful noses
we were bleeding on our beautiful clothes
we were weaving in an out of edgar allan poe - uh oh
somewhere someone must have been watching
hey there, i wish somebody was watching us
i know the night has got two faces
there’s one that runs and one that chases
but if it caught you in between
then would i wait for you in dreams
right at the edges of your answers
somewhere underneath your laughter
and if you wanna know what it all means
then i am here for you in dreams
oooooh
oooooooh
i was always gonna be your ending
i was always gonna meet you there, yeh
at the centre of attention just before close
i was managing your expectations
on a pick-up full of pink carnations
with you begging me to cure the sickness of a rose
somewhere someone must have been watching
hey there, i wish somebody was watching us
i know the night has got two faces
there’s one that runs and one that chases
but if it caught you in between
then would i wait for you in dreams
right at the edges of your answers
somewhere underneath your laughter
and if you wanna know what it all means
then i am here for you in dreams
oooooh
oooooooh
i know the night has got two faces
there’s one that runs and one that chases
but if it caught you in between
then would i wait for you in dreams
right at the edges of your answers
somewhere underneath your laughter
and if you wanna know what it all means
then i am here for you in dreams

Anonymous in Los Feliz

last night you got in my eye line
feels like it was a lifetime
i got in your head
ran my fingers thru all your anger
wrapped around like an anchor
held us by a thread
and i know its not your fault, gave it everything you had
can you see it's not my fault from where you’re at?
baby don’t forget when your famous
love’s anonymous, faceless
so show yourself to me
and come on back for me
waiting at the end of the century
i can’t sleep with a memory
so show yourself to me
and come on back for me
first kiss drawing blood like its lipstick
using it like a mystic
tells me who you’ve been
my arms start to look like a crossroads
we’re the only ones lost though
buried in between
and i know its not your fault, gave it everything you had
can you see it's not my fault from where you’re at?
and i know it’s not your fault, there was only one way out
can you see it's not my fault from where you’re at?
baby don’t forget when your famous
love’s anonymous, faceless
so show yourself to me
and come on back for me
waiting at the end of the century
i can’t sleep with a memory
so show yourself to me
and come on back for me
