Back in the saddle, White Nights/ I called sixteen friends down, let’s ride/ We’re gonna bomb the battlefield mall, we’re gonna take you down/ We’re gonna build a street that’s perfect, we’re gonna make it last/ We’re comin’ around/ Up from the ground/ Straight to your heart now/ From my mouth/ We’ve got the sound/ Gonna give it out/ And when we die the world won’t end/ Just keep on drinkin’ ’til it spins/ Colors abound/ Gonna sell ’em out/ Just wanna know you, what’s wrong with that/ We’ll take you anywhere, but you know we’re coming back/ Just wanna know what’s wrong with you/ You’re right across the street and I don’t know what to do/ Just wanna show you what I know, I know it’s right/ If I touch you once tonight this could turn to everytime/ Now that I told you, I wanna make it right/ Gonna start tonight/ We’re comin’ around, we got the sound, be on our side/ Everytime!

Sink/Let It Sway (free) 03:05 video
Pretty girls don’t just park where they want to/ They gotta go ’round in circles like we all do/ And like a mother betrayed they’re gonna find someday/ Everything is not okay/ I used to think/ The whole world’s gonna sink, and where will we be/ Perhaps under a shrinkin’ Earth/ There’s a better place for what it’s worth/ Head low but you gotta let it sway/ No miracle gonna happen when you feel that way/ Bent up but you gotta let it sway/ No firecracker in the dark gonna light your way/ Blown out but you gotta let it sway/ Pretty pretty and so continental/ You slide into each others’ arms unintentionally/ Because you wanted to see, “was he cool like me?”/ Think I gotta say no way/ Blown out but you gotta let it sway/ Throw my candle in the fire and I’m on my way
3.
They’ll say my son/ How come you never called?/ It’s easy ’nough/ So move up and get on with your life/ Don’t stall/ Just come down off the wall/ And leave behind the corrections/ She’ll say unto the forces that surround her/ Don’t get blue/ And leap into a fire of coke and hash/ Some elemental trash/ And leave behind the directions/ How many days will it take ’til you know the plan?/ And how many suns will pass before you understand/ You were banned by the man/ They’ll say my son/ How come you never call/ It’s easy ’nough/ You’ll feel a little taller/ Time cuts slow/ But you’ll miss it, now/ You’ll know it’s me and mine when I make you
4.
In Pairs 03:04
Not all of god’s creatures come in pairs, you know/ All my years/ All my life/ Oh my god/ all my life/ On my ears/ Like a knife/ All of my life it was you
5.
Yeah you gotta look at me cuz I’m staring equally/ Gotta lose focus, blur everything else/ And when we have a baby obsessed with death and grief/ I can’t believe you haven’t killed me yet/ It’s gotta hurt to see somebody dumb like me/ You think you want her more but she wants me/ What do you want to hear?/ What are we doing here?/ Where did our magic disappear so fast?/ It’s not that bad /No it’s not that bad/ Make fire with my eyes, potatoes turn to fries/ Ain’t got no reason to tell lies/ And on our wedding day I want to hear you say/ Everything is going to be okay for now/ No it’s not like that/ No it’s not that bad/ Talking to myself, the bottles on the shelf/ I can’t tell what’s happening/ Then it slides off of me/ My thoughts are clear/ I feel weightless coming down from the clouds
6.
Everlyn 03:01
Wasn’t the pulse just rockin’ us/ No sense and all pretend/ There was a connection, but was it ever thin/ Birds in a row, information travelin’ under them/ Twist all the words in my mouth/ Really twist ’em up don’t be shy/ I want to know how it feels to be the other guy/ All gung-ho!/ And no lie/ I may have a problem/ I know why you backed out/ My pride would not let me be wrong ever/ But somebody has to bend/ Oh, Everlyn, won’t you let me in/ Hear, now, the words on my tongue/ See, now, the tears and then/ Oh, Everlyn, won’t you let me back in
7.
Got a target on your back/ They were marketing your final act/ And your lips don’t match the screen/ But there are still shades of Kane and Mercury/ They shot your eye/ They all would die/ It was so tragic/ Got a four track on your bed/ Got the movie on a blank cassette/ We got the last one in town tonight/ We’re finally going to do this right tonight/ This is for us, not them/ This is for me and you, I swear
8.
All hail Dracula!/ I really think we could be friends/ I’ll let you suck my blood if you want to know how I taste/ Blood is your nighttime juice and you can’t help it/ I’ll do your evil bidding if you want me to, so/ I’ll never need another friend/ I’m never breaking up again/ Unless you need another fan/ I’m never breaking up again/ Everyone is out tonight/ I just want to be back home/ You’re hiding from the light/ But do you want to be alone?/ You can do anything you want to me/ But I can read your thoughts/ They’re always “kill, kill”/ “Kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill”/ All hail Dracula!/ You always know what I need/ You’ll torture anyone if they’re having more fun than me/ Wasn’t we off our rockers then?/ What were we thinking heading in?/ We’re never gonna be like them/ I’m never breaking up again
9.
Nothin’ ever changes, is that really your name/ What’s it mean, what’s the context, could you explain/ I don’t mean to be an asshole, I don’t mean to complain/ But is that all we’ve given ye?/ I see no point in turning all this worry to shame/ There ain’t no need to point the finger, I got no one else to blame/ Talk of secession has never been so plain/ But is that all that we’ve said here?/ The kids are on fire I’m just sat back tendin’ the flames/ And we’re just circlin’ ’round the critical drain/ Big-time intuition in a tiny little brain/ Spoutin’ out thoughts about doubts and jealousy and pain/ Open-ended questions and the ones they contain/ Did it all go to hell in a day, kid?/ Consider this my condition/ On the ashes of the funerary pyre/ Would you still have me surrender my lyre?/ I’m only askin’ cuz it seems like you wanna say/ That we’re just circlin’ ’round the critical drain/ Consider this my audition/ For that little jazz combo in the sky/ If I’m not there yet I’ll tell you why/ I’m too busy defiling the American songbook’s name

Animalkind 02:29
Cities are getting bigger, getting bigger all the time/ I think it makes you bitter but I’m too tired to read your mind/ Anyway you gotta make it better/ That’s what I would do, anyway/ You could do so much better, but you threw it all away on me/ I know it makes you bitter/ One day we’ll get it together/ That’s all I can say, anyway/ Words surround like so much baggage, I don’t need them to find/ I want to give you something different/ Something of the animal kind/ Either way, I think you’re gonna like it/ That’s all I can say, anyway
11.
Phantomwise 03:41
Getting sick of the way that I feel/ Getting sick of these thoughts that aren’t real/ You can’t have me back/ She’s mine/ She’s mine tonight
12.
Made to Last 04:31
When you gonna shake off the malaise/ I need you to be on/ I need you strong/ For all the trouble that belongs to us/ When you follow me into the maze/ And not the one you know/ There will be false starts/ There will be madness and a moat/ And then the exit starts to glow/ Oil drips from the vine/ It trickles down your fingers/ As I take your little hand in mine/ And later, with the sadness of the saints/ Say nothing’s made to last these days/ But I’m gonna be by you ’til my last days/ When you gonna shake off the malaise/ I need you to be on/ I need you strong/ For all the trouble comin’ on/ Oh, baby stand tall/ The innocent time you’re in now/ Ain’t so innocent after all/ But something of a golden age remains/ See, nothing’s made to last these days/ But I’m gonna be by you ’til my last days
