October 04:31
October I gotta start drinkin’, forget about thinking, Every day a rat’s maze, religion on the airwaves, Somewhere out there, it all felt wrong, If I had a gun! (HOOK) When I think about you, I think about drugs When I think about pain, I thunk it was love, When I feel this way! (CHORUS) I’ve had enough of your rain now I’m sober, I won’t hide from this pain or let it blow over, You say can we forget that time well I’m deaf dumb or blind You can’t believe we’re over, that’s all. When push came to shove, without passion, without love You get no reaction playing the fall Remember October!

It's all subconscious Enter the drone They made you back down And now you atone Swallow your poisons Can you face the pain A wounded child Did you paint your face Paint your face again When did you feel alive? Was it as our worlds collide Could I wake up feeling And believe we're healing I can't let go Enter the drone I know you're worried About the yard Just do the dishes I'll wash the car Swallow this poison All your lies the same A perfect mother Did you paint your face Paint your face again When did you feel alive? Was it as our worlds collide Could I wake up feeling And believe we're healing I can't let go Enter the drone

Rainmaker 04:11
A China Doll and an Albatross Walked the earth again She has it all, but nothing she wants, ah Bitter breaks the bend I always saved her from those nights We fought her monster side by side She complicates this She makes it Rain She complicates this She makes it Rain All came down to facing tears Finding love conquering fears All came down to facing tears Finding love conquering fears I drug her up to the mountaintop Said admire your existence and never ever stop She switched it off like she wasn't even phased Complications rise on her many bad days I always saved her from those nights We fought her monster side by side She complicates this She makes it Rain She complicates this She makes it Rain Rainmaker Rainmaker All came down to facing tears Finding love conquering fears All came down to facing tears Finding love conquering fears She says men are just animals Dropping one in the chamber again Sex to her is always physical You get what you get when you can I always saved her from those nights! We fought her monster side by side. She complicates this She makes it Rain She complicates this She makes it Rain She complicates this She makes it Rain She complicates this She makes it Rain Rainmaker Rainmaker Rain

Michelle 03:23
Far from the beginning somewhere in middle left She said I know I have reasons why I won't wear that little red dress Standing in this light at night she knows she should let it be Conquered by this world of lies she can't seem to pry herself free Oh, Michelle no hiding I know my tongue is a sword Oh, Michelle love's dieing but it's hard to remember the good When you're down inside when you fake alive When your heart knows the reasons but your head's not listening Feelings come, walls close in a tightening of the chest She said I know I'm acting nervous, but every moment's not heaven sent Water rises in the tub; she dives down bout neck deep She clears her mind and closes her eyes says I just need a moment to bleed Oh, Michelle no hiding, I know my tongue is a sword Oh, Michelle love's dying but it's hard to remember the good When you're down inside, when you fake alive When your heart knows the reasons, but your head's not listening I cannot run I cannot hide I cannot be part of this lie I cannot run I cannot hide I cannot be part of this lie I cannot run I cannot hide I cannot be part of this lie I cannot run I cannot hide I cannot be part of this lie When you're down inside, when you fake alive When your heart knows the reason, but your head's not listening

Space Monkey 03:58
It's been a dawg to breathe again As I scream, this city sleeps On this day of reckoning I am a crutch; I am a freak Space Monkey Rising up, I try the mend. Chains I've made Won't set me free Shadows come in to pretend Enabling friends, my enemy Space Monkey Bury it up under the road Show me the world I used to know Bring in the love take the controls Show me the world I used to know All I thought of needing Was all that left me bleeding Bury it up under the road Space Monkey All my life, I've burnt both ends It cut me off right at the knees I thought this was an awakening Killing the patient never cured the disease Space Monkey Bury it up under the road Show me the world I used to know Bring in the love take the controls Show me the world I used to know All I thought of needing Was all that left me bleeding Bury it up under the road Space Monkey Bury it up under the road Show me the world I used to know Bring in the love take the controls Show me the world I used to know All I thought of needing Was all that left me bleeding Bury it up under the road Space Monkey

Tag Along 03:09
Johnny, wake up. Don't tell me you're saved Born to be tortured, does that mean a cage You know we love you just as you are Your world is violence riddled with scars Tag along back home Tag along tag along Tag along back home Your world only rises to cold If you felt the waters cracking your skin Seek out a pauper who owns everything I know you are bitter lizards do tell A year not living just draining the well Tag along back home Tag along, tag along Tag along back home Your world only rises to cold Almost the frozen Hand me a live wire You thought it was over You set a big fire Out of control Hates not the feeling We all shed some skin And bleed before healing Tag along back home Tag along, tag along Tag along back home Your world only rises to cold Tag Along Tag Along Tag Along Tag Along Tag Along Tag Along Your world only rises to cold

Mother-daughter suicide, a crisis we both deny, gets harder and harder to fake Did you ever think of sympathy the bitter taste of Christianity If you had to choose, would you choose to walk away I believe the storm is coming. And I can hear a funeral drum drumming I don't know why everyone loves suicide No need to cry; everyone loves suicide I can't deny Everyone loves suicide Father, wait, did you ever listen? We could have laughed about the stupid things I've done. California was a bad decision, especially when you left me there to rot in the heat of the sun. I believe the storm is coming. And I can hear a funeral drum drumming I don't know why everyone loves suicide No need to cry; everyone loves suicide I can't deny Everyone loves suicide All I need, all I long for, is not to be a ghost while I'm still alive I'm a seed torn between two shores. Will the winds of change finally let in the light

Every day is a killer, every minute of life I want to wake up in Motown then continue to drive Away from all these breakdown melancholy vibes Don't tell me about visions what haunts us inside I don't need a good reason to drive all day and all night Away from all these weighed-down melancholy vibes Letting go of the ghosts that keep taking us slow on too many Sundays Might be late in the show when blood starts its flow it always rains on Monday Pushing by, we'll escape this a black rose and a dead fish No matter how far we would drive, break down melancholy vibes We could sleep in the forest; we could learn how to fly We could stop when we're distant then continue to drive Away from all these hate-drawn melancholy vibes Letting go of the ghosts that keep taking us slow on too many Sundays Might be late in the show when blood starts its flow it always rains on Monday Pushing by, we'll escape this a black rose and a dead fish No matter how far we would drive, break down melancholy vibes Letting go of the ghosts that keep taking us slow on too many Sundays Might be late in the show when blood starts its flow; it always rains on Monday Pushing by we'll escape this a black rose and a dead fish No matter how far we would drive, break down melancholy vibes

She rolled out in a fit of rage Said I'm not going back to no velvet cage Not going back to just lay down I know I have a purpose outta this town In her eyes, you could see She finally found a purpose And some positive energy Walking alone in the pale moonlight She said Cinderella's dead and I'm up for a fight It was a cool, cool night with A cold, cold breeze, her blood has boiled To give her soul heat In her eyes, you could see She finally found a purpose And some positive energy It took years to come to life All the pain, the strain, the strife Although it was in her head She said Thank God Cinderella's dead She woke one morning in a cold ass sweat Because she couldn't believe it, she had no regret No remorse for walking away, she said I'm here I'm now, and I'm finding my way In her eyes, you could see She finally found a purpose And some positive energy It took years to come to life All the pain, the strain, the strife Although it was in her head She said Thank God Cinderella's dead

It has to be here in the dark I find (Dark I find) All of the little things we left behind Pieces of you, pieces of us we loved (Us we loved) We fell in the same holes we kept on digging up Breaking us down inside We only live in the moment I loved your eyes even when your heart was hollow Why deny building this mystery We never faced the blame That complicates the sting of poison Why deny building this mystery Living the misery Here I go climbing these same ole hills again (Same old hills) Pictures in my mind remembering good times when we were friends Long before love, there was always a constant bluff (Constant bluff) We fell in the same holes that kept eating away at us Breaking us down inside We only live in the moment I loved your eyes even when your heart was hollow Why deny building this mystery We never faced the blame That complicates the sting of poison Why deny building this mystery Living the misery I've waited for you to find me here in the dark I've waited for you to remind me who we are Not the scars we've become Not the rabbits on the run Not this world so undone I'm so undone I loved your eyes even when your heart was hollow Why deny building this mystery We never faced the blame That complicates the sting of poison Why deny building this mystery I know you still love me
