I'm lying on the moon
My dear, I'll be there soon
It's a quiet and starry place
Time's we're swallowed up
In space we're here a million miles away
There's things I wish I knew
There's no thing I'd keep from you
It's a dark and shiny place
But with you my dear
I'm safe and we're a million miles away
We're lying on the moon
It's a perfect afternoon
Your shadow follows me all day
Making sure that I'm
Okay and we're a million miles away

peter, can i go back home?
i flew here under false pretence, i though it would be fun
but the lost boys are all moved away, and one them's locked up
i know you think you're still a child but i couldn't give a fuck
you're twenty one
peter, i can dream no more
i've been chasin all of yours that i've forgotten what it was that i wanted
what i want
no i won't be your doll
so please don't you ask me to
you see that i don't look so good in yellow
like other dolls they do, like other dolls they do
oh peter, i am not naive
i see the way you look at her, you don't do that for me
oh it must be love, but we both know it's not with us
no i won't be your doll
so please don't you ask me to
you see that i don't look so good in yellow
like other dolls they do, like other dolls they do
peter, he walks beside the lake
while i lay beside an empty space
just waiting for the sirens
just waiting for the sirens
no i won't be your doll
so please don't you ask me to
i won't shut my little painted face
like other dolls they do, like other dolls they do

I can't forget it,
Though I've tried
I know you regret it, love,
You told me so many times.
But I still wonder
Why
You left with her
And left me behind
Take your hands off him
'Cause he's the only one that I have ever loved
And please don't find her skin
When you turn the lights out
I can't erase it from my mind
I just replay it, love,
Think of it all of the time.
But I don't want to imagine
Words you spoke to her that night.
Naked bodies look like porcelain,
You both knew I'd be bleeding inside.
Did she make your heart beat faster than I could?
Did she give you what you hoped for?
Oh, nights of loveless love, I hope it made you feel good,
Knowing how much I adored you.

Let the water rise
Let the ground crack
Let me fall inside
Lying on my back
Lying on my back
Dry your smoke-stung eyes
So you can see the light
You're staring at the sky
Watching stars collide
Watching stars collide
If you leave
When I go
Find me
In the shallows
When the time comes
On the last day
When they start to come down
Will you just
Will you run away?
Will you run away?
And let it all rain down
From the blood stained clouds
Come out, come out, to the sea my love
And just
Drown with me
Drown with me
If you leave
When I go
Find me
In the shallows
Lying on my back
Watching stars collide

Shadows settle on the place, that you left
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time
From the perfect start to the finish line
And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs
Setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
The lovers that went wrong
We are the reckless,
We are the wild youth
Chasing visions of our futures
One day we'll reveal the truth
That one will die before he gets there
And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone
We're setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting pictures from a flood that wrecked our home,
It was a flood that wrecked this home
Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silhouette,
A lifeless face that you'll soon forget,
My eyes are damp from the words you left,
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one,
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone
Setting fire to our insides for fun,
To distract our hearts from ever missing them.
But I'm forever missing him

if every angel's terrible
then why do you welcome them
if every angel's terrible
then why do you welcome them
if every angel's terrible
then why do you welcome them
you say you'll provide the birdbath
if i provide the skin
and bathing in the moonlight
i'm to tremble like a kitten
if blue eyed babes raised as Hitler's little brides and sons
they got angelic tendencies
like some boys tend to act like queens
if every angel's terrible
then why do you watch her sleep
love to hear her sing and wear purple eyes like rings
and the flowers have no scent
and the child's been miscarried
if every angel's terrible
then why do you welcome them
if every angel's terrible
then why do you welcome them
if every angel's terrible
then why do you welcome them
you say you'll provide the birdbath
if i provide the skin
and bathing in the moonlight
i'm to tremble like a kitten
oh, every angel's terrible
said freud and rilke all the same
rimbaud never paid them no mind
but jimmy morrison had his elevators
his elevators, he had his elevator angels
if every angel's terrible
why do you hide inside her
like a child in a skirt
the supermarket's loud and bright
boy, don't she feel warm tonight
boy, don't she feel warm tonight
boy, don't she feel warm tonight
if every angel's terrible
then why do you welcome them
if every angel's terrible
then why do you welcome them
if every angel's terrible
then why do you welcome them
you say you'll provide the birdbath
if i provide the skin
she sounded like an angel when she cried

from the beginning
small lifeforms
they can kill without warning
so you don't explode
stop you growing limps and thinking
that you love them now you're blinking
and reminding her of him
oh you steal his features
and your mother is a bleacher
she don't even feel the heat no
she don't even want to speak to you
but you, you always find another place to go
oh you, you always find another womb to grow, to grow, to grow
well you can try to sink down deeply
and find the children lost at sea
find the children who discretely
were killed in infancy
to stop them holding you and screaming
that you'll lose your wildest dreaming
still reminding me what i feel
how he left without reasons
but you, you always find another place to go
oh you, you always find another womb to grow, to grow, to grow
you can try to forget me but i won't let you easily
you can try to forget me but i won't let you easily
i'm floating out in the water and washed out to sea
drifting away this time you'll regret you've conceived it
clean up the dead you leave behind
just like insects
clean up the dead you leave behind

winter (daughter cover)

drifting apart like two sheets of ice, my love
frozen hearts growing colder with time
there's no heat from our mouths
please take me back to my refuge
and we were in flames, i needed, i needed you
to run through my veins, like disease, disease
and now we are strange, strangers
it's different now
gray-faced, eyes burnt out
flames are gone, gloves are on
i have a feeling love's gone mad
we're too similar
losing our minds
with cabin fever,
shut in confined spaces
lost in the dark,
my heart taken and resting on your heart
and we were in flames, i needed, i needed you
to run through my veins, like disease, disease
and now we are strange, strangers
wait for me to degrade before
you go killing prey for
waste of daylight
speaks when slumber's keeping
under the bed out of revenge
i'm derailing, my youth has stained our sheets
with some piece of me
with some piece of me
oh, winter comes
oh, winter crush all of the things that I once loved
winter come
winter crush all of the things that I once had

miss madonna, won't you give me a kiss
one of your soft sweet lagrimas
miss madonna, won't you give me a kiss
one of your soft sweet lagrimas
miss madonna, won't you give me a kiss
give me one of your soft sweet lagrimas
cause i felt your pain
when your, your baby was slain
i tossed some roses to perfume his grave
oh miss madonna, won't you let me underneath your halo
cause it's raining hard
raining hard in this abyss
miss madonna, won't you give me a kiss
one of your soft sweet lagrimas
miss madonna, won't you give me a kiss
one of your soft sweet lagrimas
oh miss madonna, where you goin' after church
in that preacher's car
you know i won't tell nobody
that you've been smoking cigars
i won't tell nobody, tell nobody
that you've been smoking cigars
miss madonna, won't you give me a kiss
one of your soft sweet lagrimas
miss madonna, won't you give me a kiss
one of your soft sweet lagrimas
