forever lost in plastic mexico it's like swimming in honey through all i see i'm baffled constantly all disconnect through money bless repetition, i find it soothing every time things feel too wrong not to be right head soaked in whiskey, sprawled on the roof i watch the mushroom clouds exploding in the sky forever in golden twenties fake berlin the carousel feels honest though with the weekend being work free i'm just not a human being, life went just as promised we're already gone

Bottle Gang 03:10
like most good things it started as a riot when the wall came down they all fell silent should have stayed for a while, guess i could have it's the only way but that doesn't make it right and i have everything bottled up inside i've got everything and it makes me feel like me no more i've got everything, i give it all i got it's everything you're not like all good things we started as a riot and it all broke down we all fell silent should have stayed for a while but i guess i couldn't i can let it die but i just can't let it slide you've got everything bottled up inside... we've got everything....

About About 03:48
same old story, that's how it goes glad it's not that serious park and ride and kiss and tell i like you more than you like yourself same old story, lost and found somehow you are still around and for my next trick i'll take the piss out of this booze cruise into nothingness i frown, what was i thinking about same old story, that's how it goes glad it's not that serious doesn't matter, might as well you like me more than i like myself i frown, what was i thinking i frown, what was i drinking about

when it all went wrong it all went wrong i picked myself up to stroll down brunswick street and scrape my heart off the concrete the road winds endlessly, the radio cranked on nma oh lord i have never loved anything unstained by economical necessities and i being poor got these trainers on the cheap if you tread on them you tread on me you see people empty me they empty me it means more than anything it's everything to me people empty me they empty me i got to get away to refill when the canary had ceased to sing you ceased to think you clung to the safety bond and made your way out of the tunnel one foot before the other but the living they supposedly fucking owed me never quite sufficed to nullify 10.000 miles of ocean and i being poor get by on half a case of beer and as i empty it it empties me you see... and i being dull, i got fuck all left to say
5.
so you don't want to be found and i admit i'm still impressed because you're terrifying and that's when you look the best i can't say i understand and now it feels like i never have on the window pane there's all those drops trying to make their way down past the crusted dirt so that's what that is, supposedly a good day no need to talk that ash tray gave you away so shut up i'm trying to breathe i'm making room for this old washed out concrete chunk that ensconced itself inside of me and it makes me fucking sick i don't know why and it makes me fucking sad can i have a reason it makes me fucking sick do you know why it makes me fucking sad that it doesn' make you that now you're saying things you'll have forgotten by tomorrow here's to me i'm bleeding out until i'm hollow who says i worry too much, is this the end or the beginning here's to anyone who treats objects like women that's what that is, who's crazy now tell me should i stay or should i quote with an armour of frill and eyes like open wounds Why this is awkward but no i don't plan on coming home too soon

so here you've got your normal life there's nothing quite as hard isn't that right it's not a problem to be solved it is to be bought and sold cosy stupid in my seat it's closing time on procrastination street the bigger picture has been sold to a private gallery there's something wrong in denmark some are calling for boycott do you feel like dancing? we're the apes of a cold god climb atop mount average i plant my cross, i nail myself to it you were brought up far too catholic to enjoy these kinds of things i don't like to be like this i made my bed, can't sleep in it we're all just naked animals compelled to pay for everything
7.
Depends 03:00
meet me on platform ten with a hole in the heart and a coffee in hand in my imagination you're a secret agent with a hat and a trench coat there's things you don't know, you'll never know i got those hounds still on my heels i left a dripping trail of soul so this is pretty much it one of a thousand things you learn to live with even a dog needs to be loved til its dead i'd give up sugar but i've come to the conviction life's bitter enough in last night's dream we lost the hockey but my aunt recovered there's things i know that i don't want to know yes i'm cooking, yes i'm such a tool, i'll be your little spoon

when game got tied you said you'd wasted your damn time plus 20 quid on a bunch of amateurs who don't deserve to wear the stripes so what happened to your voice what happened to your band you said you chain smoked dope for years when all you really wanted was a cigarette and you know it seems unfair, that's because it really is what do you know of life if you have never felt as unaccomplished and you know it seems unfair, and of course you're right life's nothing to cling on to for dear life i feel as old as a new romantic when the game got tied i knew i'd wasted my whole life in the queue at the club still waiting for the bouncers to make way and then the fever kicked in with a rush of numb warmth from the feet to the head and i pine for the void at the end of the night as i wait for the fuckers to play something fast

Shellfish 03:28
you say your heart is broken it's everything you know now it's everything you know not how to say we're done for today you feel the way i feel when i feel like not giving things away we're quite alright and we had the sun in the sky crawl down to shine out our arses all night long bet you didn't know that did you you say your heart is broken it's everything you know now it's everything you know now that there isn't anywhere to go you go out of your way to go on about giving up the ghost

just one more cigarette and i'll be on my way the sky hangs heavy with the icy clouds of winter i grab my things and make my way for the first train guilty survivor, hell has left me air for breathing just one more insolence and i'll be on my way my head is heavy like the icy clouds of winter don't tell anyone i never liked to live the best defense in any fight is just don't be there just one more cigarette and i'll be on my way the sky hangs heavy with the icy clouds of winter everything's new, everything's free, everything's clean amend the wrong that hell has left me air for breathing just one more cigarette
