1.If You Can't See My Mirrors
If you can't see my mirrors
I see you coming around, yeah
You're coming around
If you can't see my mirrors
I see you coming around, yeah
You're coming around, oh
Pissed up Sunday morning
We'll miss you in the show
Pissed up Sunday morning
We'll miss you when you go
Go gently through the floor
A dismal and meaningless sigh
Pissed up Sunday morning
We'll miss you when you go
Pissed up Sunday morning
I'd kiss you but you know
It'd be gently through the door
A dismal and meaningless sigh
Home from your elevens tour
Honorable discharge aboard the HMS Pinafore
Oh what fun, oh what more fun
If you can't see my mirrors
If you can't see my mirrors
If you can't see my mirrors
If you can't see my mirrors
2.Crash Years
The skirts go up before the war
Among the madding crowds
They're ruined like the rest of us ruined
Rest of us ruined
You are a living doll riding a circle tracks
Behind the walls of clocks
And you ruined like the rest of us ruined
Rest of us ruined
Traffic was slow for the crash years
There's no other show like it 'round here as a rule
Windows were rolled for the crash years
There's no other show like it 'round here as a rule
Light a candle's end, you are a light turned low
And like the rest of us
You got those old eternity blues
Eternity blues
Your fingers raised, you're looking for the word
What you want is accident
Another drag spectacular view
What you can lose
Traffic was slow for the crash years
There's no other show like it 'round here as a rule
Windows were closed in the crash years
Honey child, you're not safe here as a rule
Traffic was slow for the crash years
There's no other show like it 'round here as a rule
Windows were rolled for the crash years
There's no other show like it 'round here as a rule
The ruins were wild, the ruins were wild
Tonight will be an open mic
The ruins were wild, the ruins were wild
Tonight will be an open mic
The ruins were wild, the ruins were wild
Tonight will be an open mic
The ruins were wild, the ruins were wild
Tonight will be an open mic
The ruins were wild, the ruins were wild
Tonight will be an open mic
3.We End Up Together
When you gonna do some damage, little brother?
Now that half your life is over, if you're lucky
Looking at the trends of men down through your family
Boom there go the treetops
Once more 'round the sun dried
Just in case you were not listening
I'm for damage, sweet damage
Oh, damage, sweet damage, oh, damage
Come on tell us what we've won
Little brother's doing well
With his cave paintings selling
To the ballots and their brides
Little brother, you're inside
You're a natural we joke
In the early A-B-C's
Little brother come and see
Crossed his eyes once again
He thought you were in love
He's just glad to be free
To our counsel highly recommended
And you looked
Oh, like you were saying something
And you looked
Like you were saying something
With this slight victory
Little brother took the keys
To the city which he found
On the floor of his van
Little brother clapping hands
For the turn of events unexpected
And you looked
Oh, like you were saying something
And you looked
Like you were saying something
Introductions have been made
Little brother, I'm convinced
Yet again blew her off
She thought she'd stick it out
Little brother, wished her well
The best wishes on both ends extended
And you looked
Oh, like you were saying something
And you looked
Like you were saying something
Ma-ma-ma-ma
Ma-ma-ma-ma
Ma-ma-ma-ma
Ma-ma-ma-ma
Ma-ma-ma-ma
Ma-ma-ma-ma
We end up together
Ma-ma-ma-ma

We end up together
Ma-ma-ma-ma
Ma-ma-ma-ma
Ma-ma-ma-ma
We end up together
Ma-ma-ma-ma
Ma-ma-ma-ma
Ma-ma-ma-ma
We end up together
4.My Shepherd
Glass work shards decorate this house
We're tossing lust darts out windows
The splash and jangle of the secret signs
Defined, you claimed, some golden ages, a promise
You always love short story form
The signs behind it, the hidden bars
You live for flaming, the attractions new
The leather's pulled from a secret room
Closed off there into morning sun
When the dark formed into connection
If I'm honest you come to mind, but, baby, I'm not
If I'm honest you come to mind, but, baby, I'm not
The ink draft's polished into working script
We stare in wonder at the steps we skipped
Tripping wires we have so carefully crossed
The science behind it at a perfect loss
You're my lord, you're my shepherd
Careful kid, no one gets hurt, you made me
You're my lord, you're my shepherd
Careful kid, no one gets hurt, you made me
Here's the bottle of the French we took
The science behind it was a dirty look
Songe pas de rock 'n' roll
Songe pas de rock 'n' roll au revoir
You're my lord, you're my shepherd
Careful kid, no one gets hurt, you made me
You're my lord, you're my shepherd
Careful kid, no one gets hurt, you made me
You're my lord, you're my shepherd
Careful kid, no one gets hurt, you made me
You're my lord, you're my shepherd
Careful kid, no one gets hurt, you made me this way
Try to fail, try to fail, try to fail
Try to fail, try to fail, try to fail
Try to fail, try to fail, try to fail
Try to fail, try to fail, try to fail
5.Silver Jenny Dollar
She was only ever passing through
She's only ever passing through
Carlitas and you
Was the name of her act
And it's true to love her
Is all I can do
In a world that's beaten everything
Black and blue
They holler
Silver Jenny Dollar
Silver Jenny Dollar
Silver Jenny Dollar
We're only ever passing through
We were only ever passing through
Carlitas and You
Was the name of her act
And it's true you noticed
It's all I can do
In a world that's beaten everything
Black and blue
They holler
Silver Jenny Dollar
Silver Jenny Dollar
Silver Jenny Dollar
The winter's over
The war is over
A parcel of land, men
Our scum is true
They'll love you
Silver Jenny Dollar
Silver Jenny Dollar
Silver Jenny Dollar
Silver Jenny Dollar
Silver Jenny Dollar
Silver Jenny Dollar
6.Valkyrie In The Roller Disco
Bounce off the walls
Valentine, have your fun
Come on, be the one
Come on, be the one
Light up the floor
With your moves, Valentine
Come on, be the one
Come on, be the one
Do your worst, worst, worst
Do your worst, worst, worst
Valkyrie, don't go home
It's not right, not right
Leave with the lights up
It's half for me, half for love
You're a goldmine, goldmine
Stand in the puddles
Of the disco ball's glow
Come on, be the one
Come on, be the one
There, just like that
There, you're doing it again
Come on, be the one
Come on, be the one
And what's worse, worse, worse?
There's no words, words, words
Valkyrie, don't go home
It's not right, not right
Leave with the lights up
It's half for you, half for love
You're a goldmine, goldmine
Valkyrie, don't go home
It's not right, not right
Leave with the lights up
It's half for me, half for love
You're a goldmine, goldmine
You're a goldmine, goldmine
7.Your Hands (Together)
Put, put, put your hands together
For the silver bullet make me
Put, put, put your heads together
For the cause and cure we're waiting
Digging through and past the center
Of the earth go straight
Play the scientist and vandal
Sweating either way
Put, put, put your hands together
For the silver bullet make me
Put the voice of the idol maker
Rising definite and shaking
Pick your gift for accident
For wrapped it in skintight
Pull the strings that make this thing
You pushed with all your might
Crude plays they used to stage
(Oh, my)
You've saved the best for later
(Oh, my)
Crude plays and yet they made you mine, mine
You're mine, mine, all mine, mine, all mine
Put, put, put your hands together
For the silver bullet make me
Put, put, put your hands together
For the future perfect waiting
You can only cover
So much territory of course
Belting carols at the sun
About the things you've lost
Put, put, put your hands together
For the cause and cure is calling
Put, put, put your hands together
For the silver bullet falling
Digging through and past the center
Of the earth go straight
Play the scientist and vandal
Sweating either way
Crude plays they used to stage
(Oh, my)
You've saved the best for later
(Oh, my)
Crude plays and yet they made you mine, mine
You're mine, mine, all mine, mine, all mine
Crude plays they used to stage
(Oh, my)
You've saved the best for later
(Oh, my)
Crude plays and yet they made you mine, mine
You're mine, mine, all mine, mine, all mine
All mine
All mine
All mine
8.Up In The Dark
It's no secret why we're here
You can't keep it from it
In another moonless minute it's open wide
You hide secrets from them
You hide secrets but they're spent
All that kept the lights on when the power went
What's love? What's love? What's love?
What, what turns up in the dark?
What's love? What's love? What's love?
What, what turns up in the dark?
What turns up in the dark?
What turns up in the dark?
You can't see them in it
It gets weaker, watch them go
Wrap yourself around me in the shadow show
You hide secrets from them
They we're the weakest ones we heard
Only when the lights were killed they sang that verse
What's love? What's love? What's love?
What, what turns up in the dark?
What's love? What's love? What's love?
What, what turns up in the dark?
What turns up in the dark?
What turns up in the dark?
What's love? What's love? What's love?
What, what turns up in the dark?
What's love? What's love? What's love?
What, what turns up in the dark?
What turns up in the dark?
What turns up in the dark?
What turns up in the dark?
9.Daughters Of Sorrow
You are the daughters of sorrow
And somehow I just know
I'm gonna have to hang around you
We walk through the world
As if by starlight
We've been alright
We'll kick 'em
You are the daughters of sorrow
And somehow I just know
And somehow I just knew
Somehow I just knew
Somehow I just knew
Somehow I just knew
10.Sweet Talk, Sweet Talk
A mistake on the part of nature
You're so fabled, so fair, just sit anywhere
I've pencil sketched the scene
It's feeling byzantine
Mistakes on the part of nature
The living proof of what they're calling love
Uncertain sideways streets
Where things that don't match meet
A mistake on the part of nature
You are a tall glass, a blast from the past
Where things were simpler then
You ask exactly when
A mistake on the part of nature
It's forgiven, moved on, won't wear
My Sunday suit to walk that street
That would feel byzantine
Silhouette tell me a tall tale, go, shout it out
Silhouette shout from the top
Sweet talk, sweet talk
Yeah, sweet talk, sweet talk
Amnesia becomes ambition
Ambition becomes a new sort of
Charming simplicity
Like always byzantine
A mistake on the part of nature
It's forgiven, move on, won't wear
My Sunday suit to walk that street
That would feel byzantine
Silhouette tell me a tall tale, go, shout it out
Silhouette shout from the top
Sweet talk, sweet talk
Sweet talk, sweet talk
Silhouette tell me a tall tale, go, shout it out
Silhouette shout from the top
Sweet talk, sweet talk
Sweet talk, sweet talk
11.A Bite Out Of My Bed
You live by another set of rules
A 747 just left with you
And now early every morning I come to
Somebody took a bite out of my bed, you
Well, if it ever gets weird
Whenever Jane meets John Doe
You miss my meaning
And I miss my mark
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my heart
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my heart
I must have brought the weather back with me
Soaked us 'til we're see-through and dripping
Now early every morning I come to
Somebody took a bite out of my bed, you
Well, if it ever gets weird
Whenever Jane meets John Doe
You miss my meaning
And I miss my mark
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my heart
Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling
Oh, my heart
12.Moves
I believe
You've had something that's mine
All this time
So to sing along, cry, fork it over
I live among the alarms
Where I trip
Where they sing so to sing along, cry
Hey, come over
Up the hill goes the type
Writered beat of my step
So to sing along, cry
Undiscovered
And all the years
At quarter speed
Haloed and trembling clean
So to sing along, cry, turning over
Slow down ladies
Slow down
These things get louder
These things get louder
The lava alarms
And your true villain love
Are kept at bay
So to sing along, cry like you wrote it
Will the beams
Be broke and crossed
Motion sensed, it's all heat
So to sing along, cry, it's not over
Slow down ladies
Slow down
These things get louder
These things get louder
So to sing along, cry
So to sing along, cry
You with all your moves
You with all your moves
You with all your moves
You with all your moves
You with all your moves
