big boots

Drift all you like
From ocean to ocean
Search the whole world
Drunken confessions
And hijacks and films
Just make you one alone

If you come home
I'll bake you a cake
Lay your velvet eyes
I wish you could see me
Just when I kill
You're my man-o-war
You're my man-o-war

And the worms will eat you whole               And the worms will come for you
My love                                                      For you

So unplug your phones
Stop all the chatter
It all comes flooding back
From poisoned clouds
To poison the world
You're my man-o-war
You're my man-o-war

And the worms will eat you whole               And the worms will come for you
My love                                                      For you
And the worms will eat you whole               And the worms will come for you
You whole                                                  Oh
My love                                                      For you

 

big ideas (don't get any)

Don't get any big ideas
They're not going to happen
You paint your smile
And fill the holes
But there'll be something missing

And just when you find it, it's gone
Just when you feel it, you don't
You got to ___

She kisses you with tongues                                             She stands stark naked
And pulls you to the bed                                                  And beckons you to go
Don't go, you'll only want to come back again

So don't get any big ideas
They're not going to happen
You'll go to hell
For what your dirty mind is thinking

And now that you found it, it's gone
Now that you feel it, you don't
You got to feel it

 

how to disappear completely and never be found again

That man
That's not me
I've gone                                                                        I go
Where I pleased                                                             Where I please
I've grown                                                                      I walk
I float                                                                             Through walls
Float down the Liffey
I'm not here
This isn't happening
I'm not here
I'm not here
I know what I've seen
You throw me out then send me back again
In a little while I'll be gone
The moment's already passed
Yeah, it's gone
Yeah, it's gone
Yeah, it's gone
Fireworks and blown speakers                                        Strobe lights and blown speakers
Strobe lights and hurricanes                                             Fireworks and hurricanes
I'm not here
This isn't happening
I'm not here
(No, now, how?) repeated 10x

 

i promise

i won't run away no more, i promise,
even when i get bored, i promise,
even when you lock me out, i promise,
i say my prayers every night, i promise.

i don't wish that i'm strict, i promise,
the tantrums and the chilling chats, i promise,
even when the ship is wrecked, i promise,
tie me to the rod and then i'll promise.

i won't fool around no more, i promise,
even when i get bored, i promise,
even when you lock me out, i promise,
i say my prayers every night, i promise.

i won't run away no more, i promise.

 

lift

this is the place.
sit down, your safe now.
you've been stuck in a lift.
we've been trying to reach you, Thom.

this is the place.
it won't hurt, we're ???.

a scent of recognition.
a face you never loved.
empty all your pockets.
'cause it's time to go home.

this is the place.
remembering all the things you always see.
you've been stuck in a lift.
in the belly of a whale at the bottom of the ocean.

a scent of recognition.
a face you never loved.
empty all your pockets.
it's time...

today is the first day
of the rest of your days.

so lighten up, squirt.

 

man-o-war

drift all you like
from ocean to ocean
search the whole world
drunken confessions
and hijacks and films
just make you moan alone/ and moan

if you come home
i'll bake you a cake
lay your velvet eyes??
i wish i could see you
just to ____ kill
you're my man o war
you're my man o war
and the worms will eat you whole

so unplug your 'phone
stop all the chat
it all comes flooding back
from poisoned clouds
to poisoned ____
you're my man o war
you're my man o war
and the worms will eat you whole
my love
and the worms will eat you home
you whole, ____ ____ ____

 

motion picture soundtrack

white wine and
sleeping pills,
help me get back to your arms.

cheap sex and
sad films,
help me get back where i belong.

i think you're crazy, maybe.
i think you're crazy, maybe.

stop sending letters,
letters always get burned.

it's not like the movies,
they fed us on little white lies.

i think you're crazy, maybe.
i think you're crazy, maybe.

i will see you in the next life.

beautiful angel,
pulled apart at birth.

limbless and
helpless,
i can't even recognize you.

i think you're crazy, maybe.
i think you're crazy, maybe.
i think you're crazy, maybe.
i think you're crazy, maybe.
i think you're crazy, maybe.
i think you're crazy, maybe.

i will see you in the next life.

 

no surprises (old version)

he was sick of his clock stopping
wind it up, thaty girls stayed sleeping next to him
watch stops, the batteried run down
he started his broken sentence, "no alarms..."

the watch stops, the batteries run down,
he started his broken sentence,"no alarms and no surprises..."

he was sick of her excuses
to not take off her dress when bleedin' in the bathroom

he was sick of his clock stopping, wind it up
no alarms an no surprises...
no alarms an no surprises...
no alarms an no surprises, please

 

nobody does it better

Nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest.
Nobody does it half as good as you,
Baby, you're the best.

I wasn't lookin' but somehow you found me.
I tried to hide from your love light.
But like heaven above me the spy who loved me
Is keepin' all my secrets safe tonight.

And nobody does it better
Though sometimes I wish someone could.
Nobody does it quite the way you do.
Why'd you have to be so good?

The way that you hold me, whenever you hold me.
There's some kind of magic inside you.
That keeps me from runnin' but just keep it comin'
How'd you learn to do the things you do?

And nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest.
Nobody does it half as good as you.
Baby, baby, darlin' you're the best.
Baby you're the best.
Baby you're the best.
Baby you're the best.
Darlin' you're the best.
Darlin' you're the best.
Baby you're the best.
Baby you're the best.

 

true love waits

i'll drown my beliefs
to have you be in peace
i'll dress like Ulysse
to wash your solemn feet

just lonely, lonely...

and true love waits...
it haunted all our days...
and true love waits...
on lollipops and crisps

just lonely, lonely...

i'm not living
i'm just getting tired
your tiny hands
your crazy kiss and smile

just lonely, lonely...
just lonely, lonely...
