We'll be pleased to waste the day
Burned in alcohol
Vows written in rust will say
Too close was our last call
Inviting now are summer lights
Rising for the fall
Long-forgotten melodies
We give our hearts to a ghost
Lull us now, sweet memories
Haunting coast to coast
The warm embrace of the coldest day's
What we miss the most
Take me away now
Take me away now

Warwalking
02:19
|

When the proving ground proves a way to end
The human analogues make friends at the decoy museum
The Queen of the Sorry People, so mean,
Blows them to a still-frame dead scene
So she will never see them
(Chorus)
Oh, our pretty Miss Anthropy runs
Takes advantage of the vantage of above
Heard on the vine she's warwalking again this time
She turns away to treat the effigy burns
Such a pretty to learn of new faces for the fray now
She glares, prattles on and rattles off, "Who dares"
On broken wings and godless prayers,
There's comeuppance on the comedown
(Chorus)
Oh, our pretty Miss Anthropy runs
Takes advantage of the vantage of above
Heard on the vine she's warwalking again this time

HEY MISERY
Hey Misery, you're selling balloons in a hospital
And Sympathy, you've already died sometime ago
Oh Lechery, you'll never find what you're looking for
I'll tell you all I know before we can speak no more
(Chorus)
You'll spend most of your lives
Waiting for a moment that just won't arrive
You martyrs for your causes, who spend your lives on trial
You're only looking for what ties our lives together awhile
(Chorus)
Just tie it all in yourself
Ah, forget who you've been, go on
Your tomorrows are on the way
You'll just have to let them in
(Chorus)

Desiree

Coughing up the desert's lung
Before, the river was so young she cried
Long before she was a bride
She sweats out the day with me
And our medicine, we three are fine
Lord only knows how mother tried
(Chorus)
It's lazy days for Desiree
Nods us all away
Borrow her eyes so she can sleep tonight
Untattered and divine
When every muscle aches
Pharmaceutical crutches will break
Long before they ever bend
High time has come again
Sickly patients understand the weight
Of this thing doesn't end
(Chorus)
It's lazy days for Desiree
Nods us all away
Borrow her eyes so she can sleep tonight
Untattered and divine
A strong will and weak won't await

Chemical Dependence Day
03:04

Getting older, little soldier
Searching for the prize
But on the fall we're all so small
In the eyes of the highest rise
The way's a long way away
So we've come to celebrate
A Chemical Dependence Day
On the move, not much to lose
She says she needs some down
No more kicks, all sickness fix
The fix is underground
Though she's turned away
And they say she has to wait
On Chemical Dependence Day
Oh, the days gone by
Would leave us higher than dry
But now a part-time suicide
Pays us just as much to live or die
Oh, like a second chance first impression
First the curse and then the blessing
The old familiar just won't kill her yet
But only keeps us guessing
Lo and behold, the same old way
And so it goes
On Chemical Dependence Day
