all these girls
I've never known
had,
would be the wrong thing to say
overthinking,
because in this twilight sadness
you don't own anything
sickened with myself
for even uttering those words
worth
worthless
and disappointed in myself
for that 2nd pint
I didn't need

TOKYO
this is a high
and with every high
comes a loner
the only one
and everyone
another girl,
another planet,
another handshake
hello, how are you,
what's your name?
dancing with myself
and saving myself
at the same time
Tokyo, take me
make me mine
and make mine a double
but don't love me like you used to
'cause we can choose to be alright
this is a high
this is a low
through both
you're in love
you're lost
you're lonely
but
you're only as far gone
as the next man along
this culture club,
a life that's uncertain
is perfect
in its imperfections
so let me tell you:
this is a high
this is a low
and YOU
are the fluorescence
the next big thing
time,
space
and Tokyo
touch me
once more
and i'll go
and with every high
comes a loner
the only one
and everyone
another girl,
another planet,
another handshake
hello, how are you,
what's your name?
dancing with myself
and saving myself
at the same time
Tokyo, take me
make me mine
and make mine a double
but don't love me like you used to
'cause we can choose to be alright
this is a high
this is a low

you're in love
you're lost
you're lonely
but
you're only as far gone
as the next man along

a life that's uncertain
is perfect
in its imperfections
so let me tell you:
this is a high
this is a low
and YOU
are the fluorescence
the next big thing
time,
space
and Tokyo
touch me
once more
and i'll go

HOMESICK
together we're still lonely
only saved by the company we share
sick,
without
and because
of the places we were born
you talk more
and i, less
less than 2 people
but not quite 1
we'll try not to hold hands
and tell each other
that everything will be ok
only saved by the company we share
sick,
without
and because
of the places we were born
you talk more
and i, less
less than 2 people
but not quite 1
we'll try not to hold hands
and tell each other
that everything will be ok
LET'S WRESTLE
I let you down
let the lipstick on your mouth
fade away
with nothing to replace it
but more promises
of what we'd do tomorrow
let the lipstick on your mouth
fade away
with nothing to replace it
but more promises
of what we'd do tomorrow
MR. BROWN
we sit
and talk
about magicians on TV
and stuff
our faces with another long cigarette
passing it
to pass the time
of day
until we stop feeling guilty
and go to bed

GIN DRUNK SAD
she's
gin
drunk
sad
glad to forget
regret me not,
tying shoelaces to trip her up
tie her up
turning water into wine
and vodka into wasted time
tear us apart with
love
loss
and ecstasy
one pink pill to make you need another man
down is up
up is down
and you are drunk
so punch me
and we'll go from there
dead until tomorrow
when the bin men come
to wash our sins away

CENTAUR
the light in the tunnel
isn't always a train
me and you tried to make it
not what it was
connected,
a centaur
not seeing our confusion
losing each other
and choosing to ignore what was happening
but
that doesn't matter:
with each happy monday that passes
we'll start to get better
regret nothing,
say something
and tell you
I love you

losing each other
and choosing to ignore what was happening
but
that doesn't matter:

and tell you
I love you

-ME
you minus me
means an end to the infinite number
of stupid things I say
and if life's a playground
then we're stuck on the swings
the lock,
stock
and smoking barrel of my action
satisfaction
inadequate
at knowing when to stop,
drop,
roll
and pretend to be dead is what i'll do
it's better for both of us
to take me from you
means an end to the infinite number
of stupid things I say

(Y)
it's torn us apart
like I thought it might
hiding what we're really thinking
drinking instead,
heads down,
thumbs up
I'm a bum,
a creep
a weirdo
and I wish I didn't know
what you think of me
like I thought it might
hiding what we're really thinking
drinking instead,
heads down,
thumbs up
I'm a bum,
a creep
a weirdo
and I wish I didn't know
what you think of me
TEARS
tears
for
fears
are only half the story
when the whores in your head
turn out to be pillows
and your morning glory
turns out to be wilting
like the last of the English roses
we really we're posing
for a photo that never happened
and a bloody valentine
who didn't understand
anything we said

SHORT BURSTS
people are strange
including myself,
that makes at least a few of us
trusting things we shouldn't
buying things we couldn't do without
and building things we don't know how to stop
balls dropping
situations not going where they should
and things we'd do if this or that were different
people are strange
and that's about the only thing
we can be sure about

HAPPY MONDAY
jack off
jack on
step on to what you know
pressing plastic buttons
teenage kicking
sickened 'til you can't see if you're doing it right
or not
as you tell her that she's perfect
she disappears,
one pixel at a time

a cross
and a switchblade
go together better than you think
re-stack the thin line
between what he's made
and you'll find that there's room for improvement
after all
