Track Lyrics
Zero Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus 1]
So save your prayers
For when we're really gonna need 'em
Throw out your cares and fly
Wanna go for a ride?
[Chorus]
She's the one for me
She's all I really need, oh yeah
She's the one for me
[Bridge]
Emptiness is loneliness
And loneliness is cleanliness
And cleanliness is godliness
And God is empty just like me
[Verse 2]
Intoxicated with the madness
I'm in love with my sadness
Bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms
The fashion victims chew their charcoal teeth
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I never let on
That I was on a sinkin' ship
I never let on that I was down
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus 3]
You blame yourself
For what you can't ignore
You blame yourself for wanting more
[Chorus]
She's the one for me
She's all I really need, oh yeah
She's the one for me
She's my one and only
Bullet With Butterfly Wings Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
Even though I know
I suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold
Like ol' Job
[Chorus]
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage
Someone will say, "What is lost can never be saved"
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage
[Verse 2]
Now I'm naked
Nothing but an animal
But can you fake it
For just one more show?
And what do you want?
I wanna change
And what do you got!
When you feel the same?
[Pre-Chorus]
Even though I know
I suppose I'll show
All my cool and cold
Like ol' Job
[Chorus]
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage
Then someone will say, "What is lost can never be saved"
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage!
[Middle Eight]
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me there's no other one
Jesus was an only son, yeah
Tell me I'm the chosen one
Jesus was an only son, for you
[Chorus]
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage
And someone will say, "What is lost can never be saved"
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage!
[Post-Chorus]
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a…
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a…
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage
[Bridge]
Tell me I'm the only one
Tell me there's no other one
Jesus was an only son, for you
[Outro]
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
And I still believe that I cannot be saved
An Ode to No One Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm never comin' back, I'm never givin' in
I'll never be the shine in your spit
I disconnect the act, I disconnect the dots
I disconnect the me in me
[Hook 1]
And you're mistaken, it's you that's fakin'
Livin' breathin', dyin' too
This message is for anyone who dares to hear
A fool
[Verse 2]
You can't bring me back, you can't bring me back
'Cause I give it all back to you
[Hook 2]
Through sacred alleys, the livin' wrecks, yeah
Wreak their havoc upon this world
The disenchanted, the romantics
The body and face and soul of you is gone
Down that deep black hole, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Destroy the mind, destroy the body
But you cannot destroy the heart
Destroy the mind, destroy the body
But you cannot destroy the heart
[Chorus]
And you
You make me so I need to disconnect
And you make it so real
I don't need your love to disconnect
[Bridge 1]
To runaround kids in get-go cars
With Vaseline afterbirths and neon coughs
Galaxies full of nobodies
Givin' us the farewell runarounds
And I took a Virgin Mary axe to his sweet baby Jane
Lost my innocence to a no-good girl
Scratch my face with anvil hands
And coil my tongue around a bumblebee mouth
[Bridge 2]
And I give it all back to you
I give it all back to you, yeah
I give it all back to you
And for you
[Chorus]
No way, I don't need it
I don't need your love to disconnect
And you make it so real
I don't need your love to disconnect
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
No way, no way
No way, yeah, yeah, to disconnect
And you make it so real
I don't need your love to disconnect
No way, no way
No way, yeah, yeah, to disconnect
Yeah!
Cupid de Locke Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Cupid hath pulled back his sweetheart's bow
To cast divine arrows into her soul
To grab her attention swift and quick
Or morrow the marrow of her bones be thick
With turpentine kisses and mistaken blows
[Verse 2]
See the Devil may do as the Devil may care
He loves none sweeter as sweeter the dare
Her mouth the mischief he doth seek
Her heart the captive of which he speaks
So note all ye lovers in love with the sound
Your world be shattered with nary a note
Of one Cupid's arrow under your coat
[Outro]
And in the land of the star-crossed lovers
And barren-hearted wanderers
Forever lost in forsaken missives and Satan's pull
We seek the unseekable, and we speak the unspeakable
Our hopes dead gathering dust to dust
In faith, in compassion, and in love
Galapogos Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ain't it funny
How we pretend we're still a child
Softly stolen
Under our blanket skies
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And rescue me from me
And all that I believe
[Chorus]
I won't deny the pain
I won't deny the change
And should I fall from grace, here with you
Will you leave me too?
[Verse 2]
Carve out your heart
For keeps in an old oak tree
And hold me for goodbyes
And whispered lullabyes
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And tell me I am still
The man I'm supposed to be
[Chorus]
I won't deny the pain
I won't deny the change
And should I fall from grace, here with you
Will you leave me too? Will you leave me too?
[Bridge]
Too late to turn back now, I'm runnin' out of sound
And I am changin', changin'
And if we died right now, this fool you love somehow
Is here with you
[Chorus]
I won't deny the pain
I won't deny the change
And should I fall from grace, here with you
Would you leave me too? Would you leave me too?
Porcelina of the Vast Oceans Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
As far as you take me, that's where I believe
The realm of soft delusions, floatin' on the leaves
On a distant shoreline she waves her arms to me
As all the thought police are closin' in for sleep
The dilly dally of my bright-lit stay
The steam of my misfortunes has given me the power to be afraid
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And in my mind I'm everyone
And in my mind
[Chorus]
Without a care in this whole world
Without a care in this whole world
Without a care in this life
It's what you take that makes it right
[Post-Chorus]
Porcelina of the oceans blue (Porcelina)
Porcelina, Porcelina
[Verse 2]
In the slipstream of thoughtless thoughts
The light of all that's good, the light of all that's true
To the fringes gladly I walk unadorned
With gods and their creations, with filth and disease
Porcelina, she waits for me there
With seashell hissing lullabyes and whispers fathomed deep inside my own
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Hidden thoughts and alibis
My secret thoughts come alive
[Chorus]
Without a care in this whole world
Without a care in this whole world
Without a care in this life
It's what you take that makes it right
[Bridge]
And in my mind I'm everyone
And in my mind I'm everyone
In my mind I'm every one of you
You make it right
It's all alright
You make it right
[Post-Chorus]
Porcelina of the oceans blue (Porcelina)
Porcelina of the oceans blue (Porcelina)
[Instrumental Outro]
Take Me Down Lyrics
[Verse 1: James Iha]
And take me down, to the underground
Won't you take me down, to the underground
Why oh why, there is no light
And if I can't sleep, can you hold my life?
And all I see is you
[Verse 2: James Iha]
And take my hand, I lost where I began
In my heart I know all of my faults, will you help me understand?
And I believe in you, you're the other half of me
Soothe and heal, when you sleep, when you dream
I'll be there if you need me, whenever I hear you sing
[Outro: James Iha]
There is a sun
It'll come, the sun
Hear them call me down
I held you once, a love that once, and life had just begun
And you're all I see
And trumpets blew, and angels flew on the other side, dear
And you're all I see, and you're all I'll need
There's a love that God puts in your heart
