Layer By Layer Pealing it of Layer by layer Pealing it of We preserve the best Oh yeah Oh yeah yeah yeah You’re scratching and sanding You push and you pull Layer by layer Till you find out what you should do What you should Do Pealing it of Layer by layer Pealing it of We preserve the best Oh yeah Oh yeah yeah yeah We’re mining and melting We grate and we plane Layer by layer In burning sun or rain We will find our way There’s big hole Somewhere in the corners of you’re mind You’re stuck at home Breathing in and out fell on the floor Now you get what you deserve boy, yes you get what you deserve By the time that you awoke All’s gone up in smoke now You turned around Said you wanted less but I know you wanted more It’s something you deserve boy Yeah you’ll get what you deserve

Mullhollanddrive End scenes end nightclubs Badges flashing sweat drops From ecstatic females Press button start show Do you see that fish tank? It’s about to blow A telephone rings But there’s no one around Black cars approaching No one makes a sound No one makes a sound Boy meets girl Perspective changes for good It’s how we fell in love with this This strange strange strange fruit It’s now that we can’t do without Now that there’s no one around There’s no one around There’s no one around It’s our Armageddon On mullhollanddrive When we left Vegas For the first time alive In our million dollar hotel And on blue velvet dreams That’s where I found you And that’s where I want to be me! Me! And all that he wanted Kept within a dream All that he wanted to see and believe All the times that he’s gone astray The bad thought The lustful rain Pour it down on me know let me become one of them Now I am the dessert you’re shining upon I can’t do without let my story be song By you all when I down Let me believe it some how There’s nothing to fear here Nothing so why don’t you come down On me now!
3.
The Ambulance I got hit by an ambulance I cursed in church I got lost on the streets of my town Got poisoned by a nurse I made a therapist cry Made my mother tell a lie I smoke in front of hospital doors And you tell me why You tell me why Do tell me I competed with the elderly And I’m sure they let me win You saw me rise you saw me fall Again This is not the way it goes down You say you can you will Turn around and make a spin As fast as you came down today
4.
Perverted Playground Now all the bankers are wearing masks Politics and glass The house of god and a soap opera Deep songs and trala trala yeah You’re a film star for security All one big minority On this perverted playground and this Penetrating sound Of everything it used to be Everything considered real! To me, to me
5.
The Ants 03:03
The Ants On the corners of main street Where the ants find relieve I try to pull myself together Spying like a thief On the corners of main street Where we reflected ourselves Where we fell down on the floor Where you can’t tell who I am This is not Where I go down This is not Where I’ll be found No it’s not Out of the corners of my eyes I can see the dark’s sneaking in But I refuse to come over I won’t give in Cause this not Where I’ll go down This is not Where I’ll be found This is not the time Not the place No it’s not
6.
The Gravity of Soul Grief is the gravity of soul All of these things I used to know I am not the man I used to be I sell you things you cannot see For love is the engine and the wheel What makes you raise what makes you kneel? Refr. It certainly won’t be one of you There is nothing you can do To prevent myself from me Seeing what I see Doing what I do I’ve tried believing me I tried believing you It’s banana time in the monkey’s cage How come we’re reluctant to change? I am not the man I used to be I sell you things you cannot see For love is the engine and the wheel What makes you rise what makes you kneel?
7.
Gypsy mama Poko Girl When people ask me for my name And I don’t know what to say Where do you live she asked Only there where people give I’ve traveled a long way you know Without barely saying anything You must have seen I must have heard You are my everything Hey man! Are you up to it Are you fit to be alive Hey man Can’t you read what you just wrote? No don’t be scared of live! Well what you’re about to see You probably won’t like Cause we are one of a kind I’ve been here and you’ve been there Only divided by time
8.
At The Devil inn I have been a liar I have been a thief I gave you information You no longer need I have been deceiving I’ve been relieved I even take some pride In the things that I’ve achieved You may call me devil You may call me sin But through these days and ages They’ve called me devil inn They call me devil inn, devil inn, devil inn Come check in at the devil inn I have been deceiving I’ve been relieved For those who are coming Yeah you’ll be down on your knees I may be coming on to you It might be telling lies I don’t know what I am hungry for But I know what I despise You may call me devil You may call me sin But through these days and aged They’ve called me devil inn They call me devil inn, devil inn, devil inn Come check in at the devil inn Check me in! Where the blue bell sings And whiskey springs Come let me in
9.
On the count of Nine If I was certain if I would know all If I was prepared to fall I wouldn’t have noticed you’re beautiful lines It’s on the count of nine Tell me about what fills up you’re head What to remember and what to regret You don’t call it a game but someone has to win You say ‘trough thick and thin’ You say through thick and thin Throw stones or write down Run away or sit down Now you’re freed from sense and decline It’s on the count of nine You in you’re future Me out on the town You were a builder and I tore it down How can you ever be with someone like me Please can you teach me and learn how to see to be me How to be me And when we place a coin On their eyes when the boatman calls Freed some sense and decline It’s on the count of nine

19-six 03:52
19-Six If you are looking for me I’ll be in my room Banging my head against the wall Bathrooms aren’t my place Three zero I am almost there I’ve cut the stains out of my hair That drinking won’t do you no good Little red lines on the bathroom wall Wipe the stains after the fall We all want to know 19- Six take the risk These pills and alcohol don’t mix We all want to know If you are looking for me I’ll be in my room Banging my head against the wall Bathrooms aren’t my place Erase

Kathleen 03:05
Kathleen You were waiting for change But she never smiled back The money didn’t come You were about to lose track All the things you used to weigh You can lift with your tows You’re about to tell the world What no one else knows And you couldn’t talk back And you didn’t find ground To dig the deep holes and burry that sound Refr. Oh Kathleen Kathleen Kathleen Kathleen Write some songs for me Kathleen Kathleen Kathleen Kathleen You’ve holding out on me No wit feels good to be lonely Me and my bottled friend We’ll stand our ground And search till the end For what ever comes close To what you may call truth I dream and dream While I know that I should be with Kathleen Kathleen Kathleen Kathleen Write some songs for me Kathleen Kathleen Kathleen Kathleen You’ve holding out on me
12.
Not Today 03:18
Not Today We see the soldiers We see the wounded It’s a nightmare I hear We hear the soothing voiceover We couldn’t get any closer We’re suppose to feel the pain Bit we’re lifting our shoulders Mumbling anyway, anyway And we see them frame We see it like a play We’re suppose to feel the pain But no it could not reach me Not today Not today I will find moral soldiers Banging on my door saying you need some more Relax, relax!
