Go ahead and do the thing that makes you nervous and I'll pretend that I don't care
Go ahead and do me this disservice of pretended not to notice when I stare
I never knew you were lost until I found Gauze
I patched the wound in a tent
Deleting all the evidence
If you're going to beat me going to have to kill me
I'm not the one who is trapped here
Cut off your fingers and leave them for the reaper
And stop pretending that the blood is your big fear
I never knew you were lost until I found Gauze
I patched the wound in a tent
Deleting all the evidence

Day by Day
02:56

It's just like you to watch the clock but ignore the time
To write it down and toss it out
It's just like you to manipulate the sound of a door that's been left ajar
And I
Have always been this way it is too late to change
Let's just take this day by day
It's just like you to bite your tongue and keep the blood in your mouth
It's just like you to not say the words aloud and keep the blood off the ground
And I
Have always been this way it is too late to change
Let's just take this day by day

F*** 'em Up
02:48
|
|||
On the corner where we used to stand
Laugh and talk hand-in-hand
Well I walked away cigarette in hand
Drunk as hell on a park bench
Thinking all the things I should've said
And I walked away and lit another cigarette
I never knew what you meant
I just yelled and got bent
I never took the time to know what you were against
I could've fought that little friend of yours
Knocked him out and broke his jaw
But I walked away I'll fuck him up some other day
I thought that would make you proud of me
I always scared you when I got angry
So I walked away I'll fuck him up some other day
I never knew what you meant
I just yelled and got bent
I never took the time to know what you were against

Sister Cider

I don't charge your sister for cider
Or your brother for Ale
But I'm not going to pay for your father bail
Cause your sisters a sweetheart
And her checks in the mail
But your fathers a junkie
Who belongs in jail
Oh I guess I'll wait forever to the slowly setting sun
And so it goes
Where is the girl that I once knew
And what was her name
She drank from the fountain and she went insane
She drank whiskey and soda and acid rain
So I guess I'll wait forever into the slowly setting sun
I am the bonds between us I am the chains the smoking gun
I said I'll wait forever but forever's almost done
And so it goes

Benefactor
03:18

I know you didn't think much of me
My broken fingers were dirty
My black-eye and my busted lip
I know I seemed a bit nervy
I didn't know it was you
I didn't know you from a hole in the wall
I don't believe I don't believe in you at all
The stranger I get the less I care
It took 10 weeks to feel something
My benefactor is killing time
My misery is unbecoming
I didn't know it was you
I didn't know you from a hole in the wall
I don't believe I don't believe in you at all

I wanna miss you so bad
I should have kissed you when I had
The chance the nerve the words to say
That I was black smoke and you blew me away my my
I think you've seen my my good side
Can you forgive this my darling
It's a dangerous business saying sorry
And every time your ships at sea
It takes a little longer to come home to me why why
Am I still waiting for high tide
I'm breaking my heart but I'll keep my soul
You're making an art out of losing control
You tell me it's nothing you're just lonely
I know that it's rough but it's the only
Chance I have to keep my head
I know you saw me smile at the letter I read
So why why are you still crying on the outside
Come rest your head on my shoulder
An old-fashioned love song sounds older
Through ancient blown speakers in the back of your car
The pain feels deeper when you look at the scar
I think you seen my my good side
I'm breaking my heart but I'll keep my soul
You're making an art out of losing control
I'm burning my eyes staring at the coals
You're making an art out of losing control

Brooklyn
04:39

If she still lives there say hello
If she needs help then let me know
I don't think it was Brooklyn
But it was darling street when I let her go
If shes still drinking tell her take it slow
Should've given up long ago
I don't think it was Brooklyn
But it was Abbey Road when I walked home alone
And I've been thinking this for years
Is this a nightmare or the sum of all your fears?
Is she still working in that same old dive?
Let her know when I arrive
I don't think it was Brooklyn
But it was punters pub when I got out alive
And if you bury three I will bury two
If you bury me I'll bury you

Take Care
02:21
|
|||
I can't justify leaving or leaving you behind
I can't make sense of any of the shit in my mind
I just need you to know that I'm all right
I just need you to know I'm not all right
And when they come to take me
I won't put up a fight
If I don't understand what you say just give me a kick
Because I can take a punch better than I can take a hint
I just need you to know that I'm all right
I just need you to know I'm not all right
And when they come to take me
I won't put up a fight

Septimus, After the War

You always loved to see the way my broken skin would heal
Stitch the salt into the wound and watch for what I'd feel
Which was nothing, always nothing since I saw your face
It felt so good to leave this body as it rents itself away
White wash away the day
The night it melts and fades to grey
Oh Evans I watched you decay
As you were raped and paid a wage
They drew a halo over you - you bit and clawed my skin
It ran and melted down your face and blacked my mind from reason
And the Devil smells me slipping in the venom you spew
I drank my mind and ate my body like you want me too
I do not wish to be a tree
where harpies nest and feed on me
and peck my skin till it bleeds
Please be kind and just punch my eyelids
I'll do my best to pretend I'm not dying
I do not know if you hear me breathing
Speculated and guessed I'm not bleeding
On the walls, on the pavement
I carved out Smith
Lucrezia, Lucrezia you were my greatest crime
Condemned to death by human nature as Evans sings in time
And I cannot unknow the dead I lack divine proportion
Rezia you raise me up out from the window came in
Oh what a silly silly dream
To be unhappy always seems
Guess I should've been a tree
Please be kind and just punch my eyelids
I'll do my best to pretend I'm not dying
I do not know if you hear me breathing
Speculated and guessed I'm not bleeding
On the walls, on the pavement
I carved out Smith
