1. Enough

my intuition said it was
my intuition said it was... fair
all you should know is there's...
not enough to go around
here they go again, I can't...
see 'em
as they try, they try...
to take it out on me
here they go again, I can't...
watch closer now
I can't watch closer now
they can't find enough to take
enough, from me.
they can't find enough...
to take, enough from me
guess I go down.
said it wasn't but I guess it was
please
said it wasn't but I guess it
ends
here they go again I can't try, try
my intuition knocked again, fair
all you should now by know is...
there's not enough to go around
but I never go that way
the other half of me says I should
dirt down the drain
dirt down the drain
they can't find enough to take
enough from me
they can't find enough
to take enough from me
and I've seen the hordes of war looking down that
drain
at your heart
here they go and they try


2. We all die

here you go
say it that she's ill
here you go
marriage and kids and drug
addiction
all the lies aside
I believe I am the luckiest person alive
hell we all die
sometimes
hell we all try
somewhere
money always sees
money always draws the light
hope you can see through the beggers
in the clear
do you happen to know where I am from?
I'm lost in this
sore far from home
far from home
do you happen to know where I am from?
I'm lost
far from mum
all the lies aside
I believe I am the luckiest person alive
hell we all die
sometimes
hell we all try
somewhere
somewhere
somewhere
somewhere
stand on my feet
so I can see yours
standing on my hands
I found my way home
standing on my head


3. Great Expectations

I am like powder
I am like re-lax-ation
I am the snow
I am the snow
I am the snow
I live in the desert
and I let the wind
make love to me
I dig in this ocean
and I tried
to fill it with gold
fill it, to the top
fill it, to the top
fill it, to the top
do you look for hope in other peoples eyes?
well that may be, your worst redemption
do you feed and clothe yourself?
well that maybe your best defence
I am from the moon
I am from the moon
I am from the moon
or so they say
or so they, say
facing, confronting, branding, each other
we were made for one another
great expectations
great expectations
great expectations
so they say
so they say
so they say
I am the snow
I am the snow
I am the snow


4. Top Expert

In the light that I
feel
I see crucifixes and expectancy
and I feel
so safe
foot by foot
I feel like a
beat cast-off
I feel so
ashamed
top expert on the supernatural
tell us oh how do we
catch a ghost in the dark
10 years richer with my magnet shield
I feel
crucified
backwards
not too close
and I still feel so
safe
being olderly
but feel like I'm passing
I winning
I winning
and I still feel so
ashamed
top expert on the supernatural
tell us oh how do we
make it in the shade
hey made of shame
hope you don't hate it
in the shade
like a ghost
in a jar


5. Ice Water

like I heard her backwards saying
I can take one thousand showers
and never be clean
of course she lied away
she is ten times heavier
stronger, then you found the grave (?)
or ever was
he's got it down name (?)
you know what I need
who doesn't lie?
you know what I mean
if I'm never in
without you
like you don't know
I am so, angry
I am so, at ease
I feel just like
a singer at badhead dizzy (?)
I think you need
ice water
but the only thing that you really hate
is all its emptiness
ah, you'll swim
and I will drink myself to death
if I'm never in
down with you
like you don't know


6. Still in love
(Original by Hank Williams)

today I passed you on the street
and my heart fell at your feet
I can't help it
if I am still in love with you

someone else stood by your side
she looked so satisfied
I can't help it
I'm still in love with you

a picture from the past came slowly stealing
as I brushed your arm and walked so close to me
then suddenly you got that old time feeling
I can't help it
I am still in love with you

it hard to know another's lips will kiss you
hold you just the way you used to do
oh heaven only knows how much I miss you
I can't help it
I am still in love with you


7. Rockets

where do the dreams of babies go
'cause you know they're all so good
and they're also gone so fast
keep all the guns at home
help keep your momma safe
'cause you know she pretty good too
where is the night so warm and so strange
that no one is afraid
of themselves
here, pick up, dig, dig out those weeds
out of your happy go lucky fields
of such predictive thinking
where do the rockets find planets
where do the rockets find planets
where do the rockets find planets
where are the dreams of the babies going
'cause you know they're all gone fast
take, take as much as you can
'cause you know it's going so fast
and you know it's so good
where are the man that mounted so brave
that they do not explode over everyone
here, pick up, dig, dig out those weeds
out of your happy go lucky fields
of such predictive thinking
where do the rockets find planets
where do the rockets find planets
keep your guns at home
keep your guns at home
help keep your momma safe
you know she's all good too
she's pretty good
where are all the dreams of babies going
did you know they're all good


8. Faces

looking out across the next few days
I can see, nothing
looking out across the next few year
I can see, they're gonna go by fast
looking out across the next few days
smoke's gonna clear slowly
looking out across the next few days
I can see, they're gonna go by fast
they're gonna go by
lying for, me
so I won't hear a thing
to bat me back
so I'll notice some grave thing
I'm not made of successful things
I'm not made of successful things
I'm not made of success
I've got what it takes
I've got what it takes
to rest
to rest
to rest
but I'm still around
looking across the faces I've know
I can see
nothing
looking out across my family members
I know they miss me
I know they must miss me
never had a lot of fun
better things to do around the house
never had a lot of fun
better things to do without
lying for, me
so I won't hear a thing
to bat me back
so I'll notice some grave thing
I'm not made of successful things

10. Wealthy Man

Ooh I see sunny days
Ooh I go that far
you in the night
is over, will you
tell me, that you've always been thinking of me
indirect you say to me the hand of the night is not a
hand for me
that's the most I'd have ever heard from another man
a wealthy man
that's the most I'd have ever heard from another man
a wealthy man
Ooh I still see sunny days
Ooh I go that far
and you and the night
is dragging on
maybe I will dream that you would tell me
you've always been thinking of me
indirect you say to me the hand
is not a hand for me
indirect you say again
the hand of the night is not a hand for me
that's the most I'd have ever heard from another man
a wealthy man
that's the most I'd have ever heard from another man
a wealthy man


11. Not what you want

I am not what you want
there's no telling how long
I am not what you want
there's no telling how long I'll be here
I am not what you want
I am not what you want
I am not what you want
there's no telling how long
I've checked
I've checked to find
I've checked
I've checked to find
I am not for you one
there's no telling how long
go figure that out
figure that out
I am not what you want
I am not what you want
I am not what you want
I am not what you want
I am not what you want
I am not what you want
I've checked
I've checked to find
I am not what you want
I am not what you want
I am not what you want
I am not what you want
I am not what you want
there's no telling how long I'll be here
I am not what you want
there's no eyes in your own head
I'll check
I'll check tonight
I am not what you want
there's no telling how long I'll be here
I am not what you want
there's no eyes in your head
in your head
at least I cannot see them
in your head
I'm not what you want
I'll get
nothing
nothing
nothing
tonight
I'm not what you want
there's no telling how long I'll be here
be here
at least I cannot see them
