- 1979
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
- A Girl Named Sandoz
Well I met a girl called sandoz
And she taught me many many things
Good things, very good things
Sweet things
I met her on a sunday morning
It was hot though the snow lay on the ground
Strange things, very strange things
- A Song For A Son
This is a song for a son
This is a song for a sailor
The best I ever had
This is a song for a kid
This is a song for a tailor
Who stitched up my old hearts
Who stitched up my old hearts
- Aeroplane Flies High
I really don’t wanna look stupid when I’m sleeping
I never really liked sunny days
The black wings just reach out to me over a distance…
And I can feel the wind from the wings
I see the clouds, I feel the ocean with my feet, and I’m home again
It requires an ability to judge distance
The aeroplane flies high…turns left, looks right
- Blank Page
Blank page is all the rage
never meant to say anything
in bed I was half dead
tired of dreaming of rest
got dressed drove the state line
looking for you at the five and dime
stop sign told me stay at home
told me you were not alone
- Bleed
It’s all I wanted
It’s all I could see
You can watch me bleed…
Daylight comes and washes over me…
Take what you have wanted
This is not your cross to bear
And the someone beside you
- Bleeding The Orchid
If life is my witness
Love is my song
If nothing means no one
Then blank, I belong
If fear conquers easy
I can lead on
Milk from the flower
Blood from the dawn
- Bodies
Cast the pearls aside, of a simple life of need.
Come into my life forever.
The crumbled cities stand as known of the sights you have been shown.
Of the hurt you call your own, ya know, ya know.
Love is suicide. [x4]
The empty bodies stand at rest, casualties of their own flesh.
Afflicted by their dispossession.
- 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'm still just a rat in a cage (2x)
- By Starlight
By Starlight
By starlight i'll kiss you
And promise to be your one and only
I'll make you feel happy
And leave you to be lost in mine
And where will we go, what will we do?
Soon said i, will know
- Cherub Rock
Выпусти наружу свою дурь
И раздай её
Не важно,во что ты верил
Оставайся классным
И побудь чьим-нибудь шутом в этом году
Ведь они знают,
Кто праведен,и что такое смелость
И я говорю..
- Crestfallen
Who am I to need you when I'm down
And where are you when I need you around
Your life is not your own
And all I ask you is for another chance
Another way around you
To live by circumstance
Once again
- Daphne Descends
With the sugar sickness
You spy the kidnap kid
Who kids you to oblivion
It's the perfect hassle
- Doomsday Clock
Is everyone afraid?
Is everyone ashamed?
They're running towards their holes to find out
Apocalyptic means are lost amongst our dead
A message to our friends to get out
There's wages on this fear
Oh so clear
- Glass And The Ghost Children
To the center of the earth
Or anywhere God decides
Full of fever pulling forth
We hear our call as all
To the center of the earth
As if written in
DNA is reaching out
To your frequency
- Hummer
Faith lies in
The ways of sin
I chased the charms
But I dont want them anymore
- I Of The Mourning
Radio play my favorite song
Radio radio
Radio I'm alone
Radio radio
Please don't let me go radio
I peer through curtains on empty streets
Behind a wall of caller ID
- Jellybelly
Welcome to nowhere fast
Nothing here ever lasts
Nothing but memories
Of what never was
We're nowhere, we're nowhere,
We're nowhere to be
Nowhere, we're nowhere,
- Lightning Strikes
Life on telephones,
Love on open roads
Into great unknowns
I stumble brightly
Indigo, breathless yet
I'll link to your regret
Sunflowers as teachers pets
- Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness
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?
- 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
That I loved you so
- Perfect
I know we're just like old friends
We just can't pretend
That lovers make amends
We are reasons so unreal
We can't help but feel that something has been lost
But please you know you're just like me
Next time I promise we'll be
- Porcelina of the vast oceans
As far as you take me, that's where i believe
The realm of soft delusions, floating on the laves
On a distant shoreline, she waves her arms to me
As all the thought police, and closing in for sleep
The dilly dally, of my bright lit stay
The steam of my misfortunes
Has given me the power to be afraid
And in my mind i'm everyone
- Rhinoceros
Planned a show
Trees and balloons
Ice cream snow
See you in june
Could have known
I would reveal
Should have known
- Set the Ray to Jerry
Born to please, every simple need
I stand alone in my thoughts indeed
Hate you
For ever making me
I'm in you, I'm your anything
And I - want you
And I - need you
- Shame
You're gonna walk on home
You're gonna walk alone
You're gonna see this through
Don't let them get to you
- Siva
I spin off and lose my head
Throwing stray a spark instead
Gather strength down in my heel
And dig it in the world I peel
Way down deep within my heart
Lies a soul that's torn apart
Tell me, tell me what you're after
- stand inside your love
You love me meant to be
Immutable impossible
It's destiny pure lunacy
Incalculable insufferable
But for the last time
You're everything that I want and ask for
You're all that I dream
- Starla
I'm in here
please take me home
starla dear
I'm all alone
when you can't decide what's on your mind
it's clear I'm here, starla dear
- Suffer
All that you suffer is all that you are
All that you smother is all that you are
And you're saying you're seeing, you're saying who you are
What takes meaning is cleaning the meaning of who you are
All may say
I will dream
All may say
- The Beginning Is the End Is the Begining
Send a heartbeatto
The void that cries through you
Relive the pictures that have come to pass
For now we stand alone
The world is lost and blown
And we are flesh and blood disintegrate
With no more to hate
- The Beginning Is the End Is the Beginning
Send a heartbeat to
The void that cries through you
Relive the pictures that have come to pass
For now we stand alone
The world is lost and blown
And we are flesh and blood disintegrate
With no more to hate
- The Everlasting Gaze
You know I'm not dead
Now you know where I've been
As you sleep
Torn I am
Weighted down
Patiently
Born of love
You know I'm not dead
- Thirty Three
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
- To Sheila
Twilight fades
Through blistered avalon
The sky's cruel torch
On arching autobahn
Into the uncertain divine
We scream into the last divine
You make me real
- Today
Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't live for tomorrow
Tomorrow's much too long
I'll burn my eyes out
Before I get out
I wanted more
- 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
- Tristessa
Pledged your faith
My heart embraced
Struggle to renew
Blurry mind
So hypnotized
Fast enough who
- United States
Tired eyes
Closed for days
There's no regret
'Cause there's no place
I don't know
What I believe
But if I feel safe
What do I need
- Waiting
Please drive slow
I've never been this way before
Violence reels in the underground
Yes, I am waiting
In silence throne
To fill the meetings
To strike me down
- Where Boys Fear To Tread
Candy cane walks down
To build a bonfire, to break my fall
My baby, my sweet thing
Just maybe we could lose ourselves this time
King of the horseflies, dark prince of death
His tragic forces are heaven sent
In sweet things, in a lovers breath
In knowing this was meant to be the last
- Wound
There you are
As you always were
In bathing light
And naked blur
You're a part of me
Eternal One
By grand design
And setting sun
- X.Y.U.
She didn't wanna be, she didn't wanna know
She couldn't run away cause she was crazy
She gave it all away, she saw her baby break
And in the air it hung that she was dull razors
And I said, I wanna fill you up, I wanna break you, I wanna give you up
From one another, another one should come to one another
No one should come between us
Still I was lonely, and she was by my side, my one and only
- Zero
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 them.
Throw out your cares and fly.
Wanna go for a ride?
