Julia and Winston

Julia my comrade
Forever, never will you set me free
I'm all for you
You're all for me
Vaporise our souls beneath this tree
I hate purity, hate goodness, despise virtue
A soul-mate now I've found in you.
I know this means that, they'll kill us soon
so I spent my last hours writing this tune...
To say I love you, Julia who needs life now I've found you?
They'll crack my bones and starve me and tear confessions from me.
But I won't let you go, I won't let you down
Julia....
I'll always remember, how the birds sang
as I held you tightly in my arms
Our hiding places
the smell of dead insects injects happiness in me
Oh Julia see, the past is safe with me
I won't sell you, you won't sell me.
You know I can't save you
They'll murder you too
But we'll die with all our hatred shining through.
Because I love you, Julia who needs life now I've found you?
They'll shred the guts inside me and rip the eyelids off me.
But I won't let you go, I won't let you down
I just can't let her go....
What I'm trying to say through a story contrived
Is through Julia, Winston found reasons to be alive
And surrendered their fate, their lives to be lost
but living, not lingering, is worth any cost.
Oh but I have no Julia, and no ones on my side,
so this long road to deafness leaves me terrified.

A toe at a time
04:15
|
|||
|
Meanwhile a thousand leagues
below a volcano, I erupt.
Another wicked scheme to steal your love.
My mutant, manic laughter
My twisted brain the soil that curls my hair.
My rubix cube expression stings the air.
It's me the master villain
You the diamond I can't bear to let go...
I may not have the molded maw of a superhero
Or the ruling hand of Constantine.
But maybe I just can't help the way I feel I'll get you one toe at a time.
Repeal the laws of motion
Let Newton's spinning grave propel turbines
that inhale gravity and exhale tides.
My pixels induce such TERROR!
as every living lung expels my name.
But I want not obedience or fame.
I just want to be loved
and loved by you, my ransom, lose this game...
I may not have the molded maw of a superhero
Or the ruling hand of Constantine
But maybe I just can't help the way I feel i'll get you one toe at a time.
The birds all sing their guts out as we fly,
On petr-dish farmed Griffins through the sky
Oh I
I'm part spider part fly
I set the traps, then get caught.
My minions every day, invent machines to kill
but that's because its too hard to make ones that love.
All of this forever floats your way...
My serenade is a tidal wave of poisoned parasite words that will steal your mind.
Your white blood cells are the first to hug me
I'll get you one toe at a time.

What Will Happen?

Fill in the gaps
I am so desperate to say
Da-vinchi code
second meanings are the way
I text a Y because its next to X
Did you get that one?
It seems a bit much to expect.
I suppose its funny
how you seem to not have a clue.
But why don't you see
what all my friends seem to.
Oh please don't go yet
the night is still so young.
We'll watch the drunks fight
and fall in taxis home.
Knowing we'll never be like them.
By the way
you are the girl of my dreams
I suddenly see
what all these shit songs mean.
What will happen?
What will, what won't, what will?
What will happen?
What will, what won't, what will?

What goes up must someday come on down
As a foreign object in your Levis must be found.
So the game of love has given nothing back to you
Well I've found success and fame here and so can you
(Its a game called, its a game...)
What biscuit did I put in your jeans?
What biscuit did I put in your jeans?
What biscuit did I put in your jeans?
What biscuit did I put in your jeans?
What biscuit is crumbling and rubbing around at your knees?
What biscuit did I put in your jeans?
Choose wit and cunning
Choose empathy
And engineer your future
With advanced biscuitry!
You've got to love it, need it
open up your third eye and roll it down to your knee its:
What biscuit did I put in your jeans?
(GAMESHOW)
The future is frozen, laid out in your genes.
You now have ten seconds, to fulfill your dreams.
Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, One
What biscuit did I put in your jeans?
What when up has today come on down
As the foreign object in your Levis have been found.
(its a game, its a game, its a game called...)

The Worms Want Blood
03:26
|
|||
|
A spider's eye selects a fly smothers, sedates and sucks him dry.
As broom brush bristles, break and cripple lodger, lounge and liquid fly.
The girl who wields it, murmurs it feels good to think of life this way,
But needles in the hay.
A cell divides, a virus thrives and nestles in our food chains thighs.
A ditch is dug and tractored thugs bury one million pigs alive.
The man who let it be declares "its industry, we cannot pay humanity today"
Horror horror horror horror
This can't be right!
Just don't do it out of spite and make mountains of us all.
Order now in court
You pigs you hens you cods.
The slugs want blood the flies say deaths too good.
A gavel lands in feathered hands as half a worm takes to the stand.
"Thou butcher-er, tho murderer, keen blades in soil and churning land.
No warning spoken, no law broken our bodies crumpled in the rain.
And now we meet again..."
Horror horror horror horror
This can't be right!
I acted not in spite and i'm sorry to you all!
Order now in court
You pigs you hens you cods,
The worms cut in half
The spiders in my bath
At least non could talk
Each soul speared by my fork.
If looks could kill, i'd make a stiller meal....

Piano Distract Me
03:37
|
|||
|
She flys
In shooting star skys
and plants all her dreams in moonbeams.
Shes all I'll believe
shes the heart on my sleeve
that breaks and hollows as she follows hers away.
Goodbye, farewell.
These feelings sent to hell.
I get carried away.
Part for me
vitamin C
I need all the help I can get
Piano distract me
Treadmill collapse me
I want to be yours, I still want to be yours.
Open your heart
to the one who is dreaming of you.
I got carried away to the dead end of a dirt road
where you drop by from time to time.
And you know how i'm acting, is not how i'm thinking
as you return my smile.
I can't stay this way
but rules are rules.

Following You
05:00

You, I'm just following you
but i don't know what to do
with this heart of mine.
True, is pretty hard for me to do
cos when my pride hits a wall its easy to keep things inside.
You and I know this is only the start
Of something that could break both our hearts.
In time you may see
that you feel differently.
and things should end,
but promise me you'll always be my friend.
I don't think that I could stand,
Life without you.
You, now that I have you
I just don't know what to do
With these hands of mine
But if you want I'll let you show me.
Two is the number of me plus you
and if you take one away
I would say shame on you.
You and I know this is only the start
Of something that could break both our hearts.
In time you may see
that you feel differently.
and things should end,
but promise me you'll always be my friend.
I don't think that I could stand,
Life without you.
I don't think that I could stand
I don't think that I could stand
Life without you.
So promise me, just promise me.
You and I know this is only the start
Of something that could break both our hearts.
In time you may see
that you feel differently.
and things should end,
but promise me you'll always be my friend.
I don't think that I could stand,
promise me you'll always be my friend
I just don't think that I could stand
So promise that you'll always be...
So promise me, just promise me.

Oh its that smile again
and a new game starts loading.
The characters generate
and I'm revived again
stood at the start balloon.
My fate
is amusing to you
when its everything to me.
Oh you cave my head in
but I'll play again.
And collect all the rings.
And decipher the keys,
solve the mysteries
and see off that evil smoke monster.
Though I know I'll get no further.
I will try.
Even though the high scores so high.
The moments clear,
but I feel that my luck, might be in this time
I'll play you again
I'll play you again.
