• 01. Ghost On The Dance Floor

  I’ll never let you down boy, I’ll never let you go
  Her subtle hint of life is so innocent and scary

  So tell me that you’re here boy, she says as if she knows
  When god took her with time, god made me quite alone

  It’s like the universe has left me, without a place go
  Without a hint of light, to watch the movement glow

  When our song was slowly starting, your memory felt so real
  at first against my will, but god invented chills

  Yeah I, I saw your ghost tonight, the moment felt so real
  If your eyes stay right on mine, my wounds would start to heal

  The kids are in a hurry and I’m just full of fear.
  The lights make bodies blurry, it’s getting hard enough to hear
  It’s like the evidence is cared for, and evidently clear
  If i never leave this dance floor, I’ll never leave you here

  I felt your ghost tonight, and god it felt like hell
  To know you’re almost mine, but dreams are all i feel

  Yeah i, i saw your ghost tonight, it fucking hurt like hell
  I felt you here tonight, but dreams can’t all be real

• 02. Natives

  I’m like a cat in the cage, locked up and battered and bruised
  I am the prodigal son, a shameful prodigy too
  I am the love of your life, battering ram and confused
  I turn each day into night, i stand there waiting for you
  There is desire to fight, but i have nothing to prove
  But with a crowd and some lights, i start to feel things move
  Do you have something to hide, cause i think that we all do
  I am a child inside, back up and give me some room

  I’m just a bastard child, don’t let it go to your head
  I’m just a waste of your time, maybe I’m better off dead
  You turn us lose in the night, I’m fucking jekyll and hyde
  We’ll have the time of our lives, although we’re dying inside

  So let me go, I’d rather go it alone
  So let me go, I’m never coming home

  Don’t start to panic for me, cause i have nothing to lose
  I am as bright as the sun, i burn up all that i choose
  Upon the side of a field, i see a city with lights
  I touch her face and I kneel, she tells me she’s not alive

  I am too nervous to run, like kids who scatter and hide
  To reach and grab for someone, but end up buried alive
  A world is waiting for me, a road that i rarely use
  I start to feel my feet, they kick down walls as they move

• 03. Up All Night

  Everyone wants to call it all around our life with a better name
  Everyone falls and spins and gets up again with a friend who does the same
  Everyone lies and cheats their wants and needs and still believes their heart
  And everyone gets the chills, the kind that kills when the pain begins to start

  Did i get this straight?
  Do you want me here as i struggle through each and every year?

  And all these demons they keep me up all night

  Everyone’s cross to bear is a crown they wear on endless holiday
  Everyone raises kids in a world that changes life to a bitter game
  Everyone works and fights, stays up all night to celebrate the day
  End everyone lives to tell the tale of how we die alone some day

• 04. After Midnight

  I can’t get my feet up off the edge
  I kind of like the little rush you get
  When you’re standing close to death
  Like when you’re driving me crazy

  Hold on as we crash into the earth
  A bit of pain will help you suffer when you hurt, for real
  Cause you were driving me crazy

  Bite your lips, your words a robbery
  Do you grin inside you’re killing me
  All along we talked of forever
  I kind of think that we won’t get better
  It’s the longest start but the end’s not too far away
  Did you know I’m here to stay?

  We’ll stagger home after midnight, sleep arm and arm in the stairwell
  We’ll fall apart on the weekend; these nights go on and on and on

  I can’t keep your voice out of my head
  All i hear are the many echoes of the darkest words you said, and it’s driving me Crazy
  I can’t find the best in all of this, but I’m always looking out for you, cause You’re the one i miss,
  And it’s driving me crazy

• 05. Snake Charmer

  I felt a stutter and a waiver, cutting like a razor
  Like fire through the snow, then straight down to the bone
  She creeps up like a spider, then wants you deep inside her
  She turns you into stone, a twisted little show

  That’s how it was to all begin, cause good girls they like to sin
  Way back at the starting line, when eve was on Adam’s mind
  Ad he was the first to go, in search of the great unknown
  And falling yet again, cause good girls they like to sin

  You are a hero and survivor, your eyes are getting tired
  There’s claw marks up your spine, it happens all the time
  Those silent evil daughters, like sirens on the water
  You’ve been the perfect crime, it happens all the time

• 06. Heart’s All Gone Interlude

  Instrumental

• 07. Heart’s All Gone

  Take off the gloves
  We fell in love by the side of the road
  This desert will break you down
  The veins you cut
  Your smoking tongue is the end of us all
  But you only care about
  Fame and fortune
  Watching others tortured
  Casting your reflection
  Grocery store perfection
  This is the last time
  Sent to the front line
  With dirty boots on the ground
  You said I’ll make this all mine

  You seemed so sweet at the start but the start’s all wrong
  You say you speak from your heart but your heart’s all gone

  blackjack and architect
  let’s drink ourselves to death
  the crimes of everyone
  passed down from father to son
  hopeless and destitute
  destroyed my gratitude
  you strongest lines of defense
  are all just self-inflicted wounds

• 08. Wishing Well

  Been gone a long time
  I kind of lost my way can’t find it
  And I caught a short ride
  To the grave and back this season
  I can try to get by, but every time I start to panic
  I’m a little bit shy, a bit strange, and a little bit manic

  I went to a wishing well
  And sank to the ocean floor
  Cut on the sharpened rocks
  And washed up along the shore

  I reached for a shooting star
  It burned a hole through my hand
  It made its way through my heart
  Have fun in the promise land

  On the narrowing line, what a way to sort
  My troubles
  And a very short time, gotta pop better
  Duck and cover
  Can you figure me out?
  I got caught like a little kid stealing
  Didn’t say it too loud, a bit hard or a
  Little misleading

• 09. Kaleidoscope

  Stop banging away on my kaleidoscope
  Stop draining the color out of my scene
  Just play me something I can dance to
  I can dance to anything you wanna sing

  So lock me in the studio
  Fill it up with sound and scenarios
  Stop blocking the driveway with your car
  Put the butterfly in the bell jar

  It’s the first time that I’m worried
  Of a bad dream, of a journey
  On the highway, through the valley
  It’s a long road through the night

  Hear a stranger’s voice in the front yard
  Let the hours tick past the deadline
  Get another stamp in your passport
  Wash your breakfast down with some red wine
  Delete the progress on your game
  Try to fall asleep while your ears ring
  From the loudest songs on your mix tape
  I can dance to anything you want to sing

  No reason, no action, no silence, no help here
  Nobody came running up by my side

  It’s a long road to get it right

• 10. This Is Home

  We work and slave the day away
  We’re raised in perfect families
  We fuck and fight like vagabonds
  We dance like fucking animals
  Don’t stop the band is coming on
  Rude boys and punk will shout along
  Police cars bring cuffs and loaded guns
  Kids scream, but laughing as they run

  I hope
  Do you wanna let go?
  Do you want to this time?
  I hope you want to let go
  Cause this is home

  Gun shots the punks are rioting
  The stage is slowly crumbling
  Smashed doors and try to stay alive
  A few drinks and a lot of broken lights
  Go hide and call the cavalry
  Lets dance in perfect harmony
  Get close the crowd will come apart
  That girl will try to make you hard

• 11. MH 04.18.2011

  Coming in coming in
  Kill the radio silence
  Break down in la

  Giving up
  Giving in to a feeling of violence
  There’s hell to pay

  So let’s light another match
  Stop living in the past
  Where nobody can hear me now

  Blow the lock off the cage
  Watch the children come of age
  When their parents stop to take a bow

  Nothing takes root in this barren soil
  Maybe there’s no one there at all?

  Hold on, the worst is yet to come
  Save your money for hired guns
  Hold strong when everything you loved is gone
  Slow down
  Stop living in the shadow of a helicopter

  Line them up on the wall
  Coming out with their hands up
  Give them all the chair

  Let it burn, let it fall
  Let the end of the world come
  Who’s left to care?

  Nothing takes root, but we bend and toil

• 12. Love Is Dangerous

  I’ve had it with this damn double vision
  My hands swollen, i can’t keep holding on
  My heart’s sinking and stuck in deadly rhythm
  I can’t fake it, i can’t brush it off
  Love is dangerous
  Love is so dangerous

  I’m back at it, i just don’t seem to listen
  I see your lips, i just can’t hear the sound
  It’s all static, just like my television
  Her skills sharpen, her eyes cut through the
  Clouds

  I need love
  Love is dangerous
  Hard times, don’t be fooled when she says
  It’s love
  Love is so dangerous
  We’ll betray the ones we care about
  Love is so dangerous
  Life’s cruel so we all pretend to fuck love
  Love is dangerous

• 13. Fighting The Gravity

  This makes no sense

  This air is too thick to breathe, so just drive
  These eyes are too sick to see, don’t leave me behind
  Something’s swimming in my blood
  Something’s rotting in my brain
  Lungs smothered from the flood
  I can’t recognize your face
  I need to leave, so just drive

  Burning lights on the street, I’m fighting the gravity
  When i’m beat and defeated they’ll take you away from me
  Dead and lost in a dream, this is the last of me
  I’m always fighting the gravity

  Tonight is too much for me to get through
  Tomorrow’s just a darkened hall to an empty room
  When I’m far away from you

• 14. Even If She Falls

  And she was, like a starry night
  Like a ferris wheel, full of blue-green eyes
  And a heart of steel, always on her own
  Almost never real

  When the night will begin, the pain it won’t end
  Even if she falls in love
  Back, you want to turn back, your heart will attack
  Even if she falls in love

  And she was, like a blade of ice
  Like a lonely road, clearest day alive
  Always sharp and cold, always beautiful
  I am such a fool

  Try to look in her eye, the light is just right
  Even if she falls in love
  And it isn’t so bad, it’s driving you mad
  Even if she falls in love
