Shave my beard and i’ll wax your moustache More or less The law of elevation A steady hush, you push Flip side of your hindsight Here’s generous Paying close attention Down traffic lights Naysayers & believers Another loudmouth In a quiet room Most nights You put your arm around me Feeling strange Like the vampire Alien of bloodlust Hanging strange Like the vampire Vagabond of wanderlust Shave my head and i’ll paint on your eyebrows We’ll go out Call each other, 'Dear' Bird flies with me Directions in the detail Get a new facade Lie broken in the quiet What is fear when fear is fear no more Feeling strange Like the vampire Alien of bloodlust Hanging strange Like the vampire Vagabond of wanderlust Shave my head Sing me off the night rails We’ll go out Raise our little hell.

Every night i dream she’s killing me I wake and thank my flaming stars When all she wanted was to mention Old anger turned a serenade Anteros waits with quiver & arrow Choosing sides was way too shallow Open city holds its shutters down Silver orphans ride the midnight plough Where Embankment meets the river Every night amongst circus buildings Awake beneath the bleeding heart When all was needed was to question The lie beyond a serenade Sealed gates of suburbia Weeping willows in the purple air Open country pulls it’s shutters down Silver orphans ride the midnight plough Where Embankment meets the river Why do you keep holding on to a past you’ve surely forgotten? Don’t be late for your Hollywood Thought i heard your inner persuasion Don’t be late for your Hollywood Out the window of a fallen empire We were the lights that simmered on Why do you keep holding on to a past you’ve surely forgotten? Don’t be late for your Hollywood Thought i heard your inner persuasion Don’t be late for your Hollywood Out the window of a fallen empire Through the airwaves Unmarked cabs As for goodbyes..we never did them We were the lights that simmered on.

Branca Drive 05:30
Disorder and me Were friends from the start As i've got older We've been growing apart Keep lining things up and writing things down It fooled me and phased me As in a video game Seems to get simpler If you laugh at the pain Keep chewing it down and spitting it out I've waited to be a pardoned rogue since i've left home If that's the audition I know that i've failed Should've been over Before it began Change the colour Of my passport? Is it a comedy or tragedy That you left me for her and a different life No trajectory or philosophy Can lead me up this road out of candle light For nostalgia i don't care Oh my friend here it is, goodbye Sad to see you go I won't forget you I need to find a new supply Is it a comedy or tragedy That you left me for her and a different life No prediction machine, science magazine could lead me up this road of oversight We were lost in a garden of dead hours We were bound to fall under a taste that soured Those intentions turn to rust Fail to haunt me and i must Cannonballs to burning bridges Broken in pieces like..I don't know Yea you told me That i should be glad Sister and sister I think i've been had Comedy or tragedy That you left me for her and a different life No trajectory or philosophy Can lead me up this road out of candle light Let me your bridesmaid please When the two of you become wife and wife.
