Love & Other Disasters
Love & Other Disasters Year: 1995 Genre: Classic Rock
Love & Other Disasters i’ve never met anyone quite so intense you happen so fast i can’t catch my breath baby your love is quicker than death baby your love… everything’s been a blur since we met the smell of your leather i’ll never forget baby your love is quicker than death baby your love… the twisting and snapping of our dreams collapsing the twisting and snapping, is this really happening? your whispers draw me into your bed only to find i’m caught in your web baby your love is quicker than death baby your love… the twisting and snapping of our dreams collapsing the twisting and snapping, this can’t be happening!

Neighborhood
Neighborhood Genre: Classic Rock
Neighborhood i knew this little girl head full of curls she didn’t have a chance when she was born into this world i remember her smile it spread for miles we sat on the steps and fed the birds for a while the neighbours didn’t know the damage didn’t show the only ones who knew were the dollies that she told she was strangled with her hair her parents didn’t care when i visited her grave there was nothing everywhere how can these things be? what’s it mean to me? some enormous hand i don’t understand i remember her smile it spread for miles…..

Get With The Programmed
Get With The Programmed Genre: Classic Rock
Get With The Programmed every day unfolds the same, grab a coffee, catch the train to your gleaming tower of pain send a memo, send a bunch, you never dare to stop for lunch fearful of the deadline crunch drag your carcass home at night, what’s the use in trying to fight? drink until you kill the light a desperation you can’t hide, you lay in bed and realize you’re just fucking dead inside the only future that you can see is plodding mediocrity you’ve lowered all your expectations the only future that you have found is giving up and going down under all humiliations get with the programmed….. every day unfolds the same, aspirations down the drain tomorrow you’ll do it all again lurching between disappointments, hypocrites and bland appointments thank christ for your stay-hard ointments a series of indignities, injustices and tragedies is all your life will ever be you’ll never take those world trips, you’ll never get to kiss her lips “Assistant Dispenser of Paperclips” the only future that you can make is all the happiness you can fake just don’t go off your medication the only future that you have found is giving up and going down under all abominations get with the programmed…..

Nothing Star
Nothing Star Genre: Classic Rock
Nothing Star a shadow fell across my door it all goes black and blue again, the darkness enters in is this who we are when this is what we do? it’s rather oceanic this blood loss kind of high it’s so cold, this icy plunge then you just accept it, sleepy, drifting, numb it’s the sum of all our fears down into the darkness of an ocean’s bitter tears i wish my tears would go away but i guess that they are here to stay it all goes black and blue again goodbye i just had to say there are no tears in my eyes today the ocean swept them all away nothing, a nothing that’s what you are a nothing star nothing, a nothing star that’s what you are to me i stumbled on the rocks below begging you to take me, where is it you go? naked born and naked die i will see the depths if i can’t see the sky

A Pleasant Blue
A Pleasant Blue Genre: Electronic
A Pleasant Blue i was shocked to learn today she’s just like you in every way with piercing eyes and open mouth she turns me on then turns me out oo… just like you… she’s just like you i try to run but she don’t care her clutching hands are everywhere back into her shadow power stretching moments into hours oo… like you… just like you we are living in a most peculiar world and i attract a certain damaged type of girl like you… just like you her callousness is shattering my protestations don’t mean a thing perhaps a loving soul should change her redefine and rearrange her oo… a pleasant blue… just like you i was pleased to find today a different girl in every way i will twist her over time like the others she’ll be mine like you… just like you… she’ll be just like you
