DISTANT PARENTS
Sweetness was there but the breeze of love though felt did not stop my street from
becoming crowded
Everything will be gone
The Earth and warm life
There will be a time when the sun will no longer be ablaze
But you will disappear much sooner
And I will no longer feel that I’m loved forever
Both of you should have met the parents who lived inside of me
So we could all be together
Voices rising out of silence
Banging loudly on the gates of resistance
I will never be able to say
Always in a dream
What time is it today?
Reality makes me feel sorry
I've been wired improperly
My sorrow is there for no one to see
Everything is gone
For no other reason
Than ill disconnection
Mind of a schizophrenic
My heart is in a panic
Mind of a schizophrenic
My eyes are in tears
And my heart is in a panic
Strange voices rising out of silence
Banging loudly on the gates of resistance - Track Name: Twentieth Century Dream
-
TWENTIETH CENTURY DREAM
I’ve made my peace
So you think that makes sense
I did not make peace
Just sitting on a meaningless afternoon petting my cat
When I could have
Immaturity was too strong
Just as the universe is made wrong
I did not make peace
Sitting on the couch
On some 1995 afternoon petting my love
My cat who doesn’t understand but who responds
So I was a part of everything
Immaturity was too strong
So I was a part
The universe is made wrong - Track Name: She Waived at Me... I Was Too Shy to Respond
-
SHE WAIVED AT ME … I WAS TOO SHY TO RESPOND
I can’t say goodbye because I am afraid to say hello
You cannot be so happy in this world
You cannot appear so happy as you waive at me
Golden girl
You know the universe is expanding
Each second that passes on this street
Moves us a bit closer to the ghosts
I just want to go home and hold my cat near my heart, I don’t know if you know but I
suffer from anxiety
It is eerie
Golden girl
To see you so happy
But still I love your joy
Mine is unwarranted and I don’t want to be perceived as dim-witted
So I leave it in my room below the light bulb
Idle smiles have no place in the valley of life
But I love your joy
It is eerie
Golden girl
To see you so happy
To see you waive at me
To see you smile and waive at me - Track Name: Cruelty
-
CRUELTY
Sadistic
And I was not ready to understand
Ready to understand
The nightmarish violence of this stand
Sadistic
Like these souls were made of bricks
And I was not ready to understand
Not ready to understand
What was projected was so piercing and grand
Sadistic
I was not made of plastic
This contempt and lack of love hurt like an ice pick
Why is everyone laughing at me?
I am so shy
My mother said
Maybe their horns will recede one day
And wings will grow
On some of them
Sadistic
And I was not made of plastic
This contempt and lack of love hurt like an ice pick
And they were many
Many dull little dolls
Using their cruelty to mock me and my profound sensitivity
Many dull little dolls
All coming from the angry girly factory - Track Name: My Spirit Above the Nightlife
-
MY SPIRIT ABOVE THE NIGHTLIFE
Friends I never knew I had disappeared
Friends I never knew I had disappeared
My mind is hypnotized by the yellow street lights
Existence and life
Are they for me?
I guess this is a plea
Each passing car gleams with divinity
I hate the fact that I hate my benevolence
I eagerly look out my window
And I hope to see the police or a girl
Please put on a show
I don't know about tenderness and love
I sense the thunderstorms hidden behind personal relations
Ripping my dreams and my limited condition
These dreams hurt, mother
But with my binoculars I am an efficient night watcher
So all the neighbourhood women will be captured by my voyeuristic endeavours
Love and life
Love and death
I am just a repressed Woody Allen
With an eternal burden
But I am still as repressed as someone can be
Mother don't you think it would be better if someone wanted to meet me?
I guess this is a plea
Each passing car gleams with divinity
Love and life
Love and death
Love and life
Love and death - Track Name: Sweet Pretty Art Teacher
-
SWEET PRETTY ART TEACHER
I broke my pen and I felt so little
Red came off my brush
And as I gazed at the blue sky and green trees
I felt erased
Sweet pretty art teacher
Self-esteem destroyer
Sweet pretty art teacher
Always praising beauty and superficiality
But I was kind of ugly
So I pictured her as a Nazi
If you could have seen my inner scenery
You would have seen ravenous cats eating at your beauty
I know the world is in her image
But sometimes I still cry in rage
Even though I occasionally like what I write on my page
If you could have seen my inner scenery
You would have seen ravenous cats eating at your beauty
I know the world is in her image
But sometimes I still cry in rage
Even though I occasionally like what I write on my page - Track Name: The Turtle
-
THE TURTLE
Nature loves her
She wants to keep her forever
A part time life in her shell
A serene blank mind
No agony of nostalgia
Nature loves her
She will be there for a long, long, long time
Put your hands on her
Feed her some vegetables
A serene blank mind
No agony of nostalgia
I wish the people I love had their blood flowing for as long as the turtle
I wish peace would last as long as the turtle
And youth also
And summer also
If I loved myself I would like to be a turtle
I like to be in a shell
I like to be in a shell - Track Name: A Theatre on Fire
-
A THEATRE ON FIRE
Looking at life on the screen
Ready to enjoy our imagination
Ready to dive into a state of dreamy fascination
Your tears will put off the flames
It's too late now to worry about the blames
So it is so sad
Because you were never bad
So it is so sad
Because this disintegration of emotions made us glad
And this apocalypse is all we have ever had
I admire your image
Against the pale blue and red colours
Flames and stars
That shine only for heart broken audiences
Flames and stars
That shine for everybody
I find your image inspiring like Christ who died of love
Against the blue and red colours
In the streets around us cats are gathering to look at the fires - Track Name: Falling Out of Bed in Front of New Friends
-
FALLING OUT OF BED IN FRONT OF NEW FRIENDS
So much shyness and need for drama
Dramatic love and dramatic romance
Dramatic situations
Embrace me on top of a skyscraper
Fake blood and lights
Ooh phoney drama
Dramatic situations
I think somehow all of us need attention
There are bizarre clouds of tenderness
A strange affection that brings you back to yourself and your strange smile
The smile is strange
But the love is real
The smile is strange
But the love is real
Police helicopters buzzing around
Noisy indecency
They are paid to care
Police helicopters flying around, flying all around
In my heart I feel satisfied that finally I have new friends and they love me
It is so corny that these are the things I would only tell myself when I am tucked up in
bed
And ready to sleep - Track Name: Reginald's Kiss
-
REGINALD’S KISS
This night is fuzzy and warm
Like my emotions
But yet I am so calm
Staggering in the parking lot of the screening room
While they're showing an old movie
The kind that are naive and full of beauty
Hi, police lady
How kind of you policewoman
Let me hold your hand
You're my first you know
I am so young and I drank tonight
This is not a prank, you know
I see your angry face but still I want you so
You can pepper spray me
Police lady
I am protected by my romance glasses
And I love you
Why these handcuffs?
Police lady
I thought you loved me
I was under the impression that you had affection for me
It feels like we are alone in this city
Blow a kiss in the air if you wish
The sirens are as red as my wandering and nervous heart
The sirens are as red as my wandering and unsure heart - Track Name: Bloody Beach and Dancing Girls
-
BLOODY BEACH AND DANCING GIRLS
Sitting at your desk writing
Writing all those things you dislike about others and your own soul
Smearing the ink, the blood in the beach water
These shallow angels would never die for you under this summer sky
It was so long ago when time seemed as potent as a sea tide
There's a beautiful sunset outside
Bathing your former school and your made-up ghostly lovers
Who are dancing their youth away in far away nightclubs and oblivious
So oblivious to the fact that they were burning stars in the eyes and heart of an ocean
of affection and frustrations
Beautiful sunset outside
It’s laughable when your value only comes from the inside
These shallow angels would never die for you under this summer sky
In distant cities the young and beautiful and interesting , talking and laughing, neon lit
At dusk stray cats came asking for food as you laid down alone in the flowers
Deep down there is still blood in the beach water
These shallow angels would never die for you under this summer sky
You laugh about many things but not love
After all you were born warm
After all you were born warm
You laugh about many things but not love - Track Name: A Song About Something
-
A SONG ABOUT SOMETHING
I see it in everyone
I see it in no one
You could make it so small
The galaxies and all
God of naivety
God of childhood distress
God of immature distress
You may have saved Pascal from madness
Everything is made of questions
And subjective communications
After all we live in a world of personalization
I would like to set my cynical towers on fire
But I will always wonder what is in the hearts of others
God is love so let it be
A compassion that many will never see
God is love so let it be
