Say My Name

I wanna live in the lush life way
I wanna live it with you
I wanna hear you say my name again
I've got a question for you to answer
I've got a question for you
I wanna hear you say my name again
Cause I gotta hear you say my name again
I've got a reason to be with you
Don't wanna look for another
I wanna hear you say my name again
I've got an answer to this
I've got an answer to all of your problems
So I’ll complain the pain away
Cause I gotta hear you say my name again
I'll let you see all of the things inside my head
I'll let you feel my love again and again and again
I've got a reason to hold on
I've got a secret that only you know of
So I'll contain the strain today
I made a bet last night
I wonder why I waited all my life
I gotta hear you say my name again
Cause I gotta hear you say my name again
I'll let them see all of you and me
I'll let you see all of the pieces of my heart
Cause I gotta hear ya
Cause I gotta hear ya
Cause I gotta hear ya
Cause I gotta hear you say my name again

Gimme Gimme

I got a feeling that I want your love
Infatuation, it's a kind of drug
We could hold hands, we could for a walk
Or we could have a picnic on the Kananook shore
Don't have to put it in a contract
I just wanna see your body rock
Give me your hand, I'll show you around
And then we'll spend all our money, yeah we'll burn it all out
I want your love, want you to be my baby
Gimme the life that I want
I want your money, want your ego baby
You're giving me all I want
I want your love, want you to be my baby
Gimme the life that I want
I want your money, want your ego baby
Gimme, gimme, gimme
(I'm a smooth operator)
We could be a match made in heaven
I like you, that is my confession
(I'm a cool, cool stimulator)
I'm tangled in your disposition
Don't leave me high
Don't leave me dry
You gotta try
You gotta smile
I want your love want you to be my baby
Gimme the life that I want
I want your money, want your ego baby
You're giving me all I want
I want your love, want you to be my baby
Gimme the life that I want
I want your money, want your ego baby
Gimme, gimme, gimme

World Is The One
01:51

Got stuck in a cage
I don’t wanna be like you
I’m trying to be brave
I need paradise too
I’m trying to escape
I don’t wanna be like you
I’m trying to reject
I don’t wanna be a six sum salary
Come stay in my cage
I’m stuck in my ways
I’m stuck in a phase
I’m trying to be safe
I’m running in a big foam finger chase
I don’t wanna proceed
I don’t like the routine but I’m feeling the squeeze
I saw you today
This world is the one and that’s all I know
I need a shake out
Turn around
Give this dog a bone
I need a shut down
Look around
Punch me in the nose
I need a break out
Shake out
Throw it on the floor
I need a shock
This world is the one

Stay Or Go
02:36
|

|
I've been waiting for a sign of the times
I've been waiting for a sound that I like
Had enough and I don't know where I lie
Cause I've been waiting far too long for a sign
Should I stay here?
Should I say no?
Should I say yes?
Or should I go?
I’ve been waiting for a sign of the times
I’ve been looking for a reason to try
I don’t know, am I wrong, am I right?
I’m a sucker, forgot how to fight
Should I stay here?
Should I say no?
Should I say yes?
Or should I go?
I’ve been waiting for the time
That it looks me in the eyes
I’ve been waiting for the time
But it came as a surprise
I tried the woeful idleness
I tried the drugs, oh how I miss
Is the lush life, just a big abyss?
Is it a gold mine, or just the same as this?
For everything I want to see, is out of reach
A place beyond potentiality
Oh I don’t know, I’ve overthrown the ball
My back’s against the wall
I’ve been waiting for the time
That it looks me in the eyes
I’ve been waiting for the time
But it came as a surprise

Easy On The Heart
03:48

Start it off with something along the lines
I never got your message but I'm sorry if you tried
Said, I'll never get this feeling sounding right
I'm stuck inside a box and I don't know what's left, despite
That I-I-I’m sorry
20, I don't know what it's like
Blah blah blah, another second hand lie
Said, I'll never have this feeling but I might
Sift it through my teeth another story glamorized
So, now
Tell me that you love me
I know it's easier to tell me that you like me
I know it's easy on the heart
Turn away the truth of my life
I never knew you'd walk the way to walk away from my heart
Try to find a new rhyme
I never knew you'd feel it too and reap the lies from my art
I-I-I’m sorry
Tell me that you love me
I know it's easier, to tell me that you like me
I know it's easier, to tell me that you love me
I know it's easier, to tell me that you like me
I know it's easier
The shame, I know you feel the same way
Cause I asked you one more time
and now sincerity escapes, so
Shame, I know you feel the same way
Cause I asked you one more time
and now my conscience says hey so
Fame, won't you come to me today
Cause I asked you one more time
and now the curtains pull away
So I go now, and I say
Tell me that you love me
I know it's easier, to tell me that you like me
I know it's easier, to tell me that you love me
I know it's easier, to tell me that you like me
I know it's easy on the heart

Look The Part
03:53

And the only one takes another
I could barely find the words to figure it out
And the only one takes another
I could barely feel the dirt that covers the ground
Every day that you’re waiting for me
Every day its the same funny game
Every day that you blame, I remain
Every day it’s the same and again
So I went to your house
I went somewhere else
I went to your to your house
I went somewhere else
I can’t help myself
I can’t save myself
I can’t help myself
And the only one takes another hit
And the only one stays another
I could barely find the words
I’m shading myself
Cause you only wanna change your cover
And I live because you won’t turn out
Every day that I’m wasting away
Every day that I’m fading away
Every day it’s the same funny game
Every day I complain, I complain
So I went to your house
I went, I want you to figure it
I went to your house
I went, I want you to figure it
I went to your house
I went, I want you to figure it
I went to your house
I went, I want you to figure it out
And the only takes another
I could barely...
I’m checking myself
Had enough now I’m changing covers
And the whistle-blower wheels will drag me out
I wanna look the part
I wanna feel a change
I wanna feel a shake
Enjoy the flame
I wanna cut the breaks
I wanna love the way
I wanna leave
Someone just take me
I went to your house
I bet I’ll find somebody else
Went to your house
I went, I’ll find somebody else
Went to your house
I went, I’ll find somebody else
Went to your house
I went, I went over, somebody said
For somebody else
I’m checking myself
For somebody else
I’m checking myself

Walking Away

I gotta get back
Well I don’t know what you need
I’ve got a feeling
There’s more you’re not telling me
Well I’m pretentious
I know it’s plain to see
I know they’re coming for you
I know they’re coming for me
I’m gonna be a while
I’ve got the rest of the week
I’ve gotta do your dirt
So you’ll answer to me
I’m gonna be a while
I’ve got the rest of the week
And now they’re coming for you
And now I’m coming for ya
Stop fading away
Why you always walking?
Why you always running away?
I’ve got some things left to say
Why you always walking?
Why you always running away?
I’m gonna be a while
I know you’re hiding in here
Well it’s a sign of the times
And well, the times are shit
You did your best job
I know you’re tired of this
Well we’re all tired of you
Your time is up in this room!
I gotta quit my job if I want it my way
I’ve gotta be less harsh
if there’s something to say
I’ve gotta be less harsh
if there’s something to say
And now you’re coming for me
And now he’s running for the -
Stop fading away
Why you always walking?
Why you always running away?
I got some things left to say
Why you always walking?
Why you always running away?
I’ve got a lie, and a bit of shame
Why you always walking?
Why you always running away?
You think the world is just a video game
Why you always walking?
Why you always running away?

Things That You Did
03:46
|

Sorry never changes
“I’m just a man with a cigarette in my hand”
“I’m just a boy with a rubberneck - where and when?”
A shade of red that I will never see again
A funny shape that you carved into her shallow skin
She told me about the things that you did, it’s you
She told me about the things that you said, it’s true
She told me about the things that you did, it’s you
She told me about the things that you did
“You’re never going to catch me if I always run away”
Sorry never changes
She was blacked out on the bed
where you stood and said
“Just a little bit, if you really loved me you would”
An irremissible act I knew you understood
A piece of her that you pushed
and you pushed, and you pushed
She told me about the things that you did, it’s you
She told me about the things that you said, it’s true
She told me about the things that you did, it’s you
She told me about the things that you did
“You’re never going to catch me if I always run away”
You
I saw you in that room
I saw you sing that tune
I saw you in that room
She told me about the things that you did, it’s you
She told me about the things that you said, it’s true
She told me about the things that you did, it’s you
She told me about the things that you did

Lucky Nine

Sympathetic mister
I know that you miss her
Trouble in the backseat
I know that you can’t see why
How did it all happen?
I know that that you want me
Oxygen had lost me then
You know that I can’t say why
Can you sing the words to me
Live forever happily
Too many things on the checklist
I read your mind and I know
that you’re trying to please
I could die, it’d be shameless
“It’s my time” are just empty words written on the street
I could die, it’d be painless
I could try, it’d be harder than anything I’ve done
I could run, it would save this
I could try but every time, well I just sit around
Can you sing the words to me
Live forever happily
Can you sing the words to me
Live forever in a dream
Ahhhh
I know you can’t sleep
I know it’s killing you
Ahhhh
I felt your temperature
Because it’s my lucky nine
Sensation, I know you’ll let me down
Medication, I never took that route
Take me higher, you know I’m not that girl
Take me higher, I know it’s suicide
Run away to the west end station
Allocate your time to the fight
Serenity was never any better
Lucky nine, lucky nine, lucky nine
So can you sing the words to me
Live forever happily
Can you sing the words to me
Live forever in a dream
Ahhhh
I know you can’t sleep
I know it’s killing you
Ahhhh
I took your temperature,
maybe that it’s all I need
Ahhh
Well I’m exhausted
I never hit the switch
Ahhh
And now I can’t sleep
I guess it’s my lucky nine

Suck It In
03:36

|
Falling in and out of decay
I feel like I’m stuck in that state
I feel like I’m fading away
It must be that time of the day
Feel my conscience wasting away
Cause I can’t help but feel
it’s so good it’s so tragic
Somewhere between the routine
I didn’t hate it then
Take me and throw away the key
I feel like a child again
I guess I’ll sing along to it
Or put it in a bin
Sometimes you gotta take the hit
Push it out or suck it in
Your desire is surely the same
Listen, I know just what to say
Kiss me, instant love
Fear me, I fear it too
It’s exhausting seeing you
I’m always just trying to refuse
Somewhere between the routine
I didn’t hate it then
Take me and throw away the key
I feel like a child again
I guess I’ll sing along to it
Or put it in a bin
Sometimes you gotta take the hit
Push it out or suck it in
Take me to the lush life
Take me to the lush life
Take me to the lush life

Dirtbag Transformation: "What is this?" was my first reaction. But what an amazing song. It reminds me a bit of the Pixies in how it pulls together dissonance and then resolves.

Dammit every track makes me smile. How did you do that? If a friend recommends this album to you, hang on to them because they're just as fabulously messed up as you are. I'd like to thank my bank for allowing me to buy things online again. Thank you. Everyone. Thanks.
