Island

Into the dangerous, I get so complicated
And all my guardians start to shudder, soft speak
And I will never go away, an island never goes away
(I like it campy)
"And I will never go away, an Island never goes away"
I get so complicated, and all my islands start to shudder, rocking
I feel you haunting my throat again,
"DON'T GO BUSTING IT OPEN FOR EVERY MAN, HOLD COURT WITH ME"
I could hold your hand with darkness (let me in)
I could light the way with darkness (let me in)
I could play the game with darkness (let me in)
To the place where you cum and you're whole
Where you cum and you're whole, but
An island never goes away
An island never goes away
An island never goes away
An island never goes away

Thought about a boyfriend that's bad for the boyfriend
Thought about the boyfriend I'd carry the life of
Thought about the boyfriend cum hard with the boyfriend
Thought about the boyfriend go down with a boyfriend
When he wasn't caring well I had my bearing and
Thought about my boyfriend walk out on my boyfriend
Thought about no boyfriend no one wants no boyfriend
Never saw that boyfriend I'm not with that boyfriend now
He who wants that boyfriend no saving that boyfriend
Getting with that boyfriend your life will be madness
Said baby, come back to me and give me that money
And baby, come back to me just give me my money
ICY FORTRESS, THAT'S MY GODDESS
FROM YOUR FIST INTO MY WALLET
I CAN DEAL THE FINAL BLOW
I CAN DEAL THE FINAL BLOW
Baby, come back to me just give me that money
And baby, come back to me and give me my money
Said you had a boyfirend that's bad for a boyfriend (you gotta just)
Give up the boyfriend, the guns and the madness
If you get that boyfriend, you're high on the boyfriend
You'll waste all your money with guns and madness
Giving it up the boyfriend you'll die with the boyfriend
Thought about the boyfriend your life will be madness
Give it up the boyfriend your life or the boyfriend
Give it up the boyfriend your life will be madness

You're a recharger, city revolver
and you go and you go and you go and you go and you go
Until the darkness, secrets and drama
you will see you will see you will see you will see you will see
Time, make it on time...
And I, I wanna be with you
And I, I wanna be with you
Kissing on the first day, on the second day that's when things get nasty
Kissing on the first day, on the second day that's when things get nasty
Kissing on the first day, on the second day that's when things get nasty
And you walk the hills in a long black veil, that's not a place for you heart
For the deepest sleep, take the rest of me, that's not a place for your heart
And I, I wanna be with you
And I, I wanna be with you
You are a baby, born in the mid-teens
and you go and you go and you go and you go and you go
Until the darkness, into your soft bed, you will sleep you will sleep you will sleep you will sleep you will sleep

Parade

It's no parade for us, but we are marching anyway
You give me courage on the darkest day
It's no parade for us, but we are marching anyway
You give me courage on the darkest day
I never thought that I could be so sad, but every ticking of my heart pumps a shadow deep into my veins
Those golden days are a burning wreck and the smoky light hasn't settled yet & I want to forget so badly, forget so badly today
It's no parade for us, but we are marching anyway, you give me courage on the darkest day
And I'll be damned if they take control, and I'll be damned if they take control
I never thought that I could be so sad, but every ticking of my heart pumps a shadow deep into my veins
It's no parade for us, but we are marching anyway
You give me courage on the darkest day
It's no parade for us, but we are marching anyway
You give me courage on the darkest day
It's no parade for us, but we are marching anyway
You give me courage on the darkest day
In the next life
We will hold tight
To the days of gold, gold, gold

& I know this god isn't going to stick
& I know this knife doesn't got to fit
& I know this baby is easy if...
Set the morning free
& I know the mind is a funny thing
& I hope my heart isn't taking time
& I know your kiss is forever on my face
Just to be up high with you
Just to be up high with you
Don't plant a rose on a dead end street
(don't hide me away, don't me hide me away)
You give your life & your heart two names
(don't hide me away, don't me hide me away)
Don't tell your mother it's just a show when I'm crying give me something
You trick yourself and your heart believes
(don't hide me away, don't me hide me away)
& I know this god isn't going to stick
& I know this knife doesn't got to fit
& I know this baby is easy if...
& I know your heart's got to cum instead
& I know the mind is a funny thing
& I hope my gut isn't taking time
& I know your kiss is forever if...
Set the morning free
Don't plant a rose on a dead end street
(don't hide me away, don't me hide me away)
You give your life & your heart two names
(don't hide me away, don't me hide me away)
Don't tell your mother it's just a show when I'm crying give me something
You trick yourself and your heart believes
(don't hide me away, don't me hide me away)
Just to be up high with you
Just to be up high with you

Under Every Ocean

And I put my hand into the cold candle light
I saw my face inside the eyes of the Animal
I'm coming Home
I've been Away
I've been in Disguise
I can't control it
And that's my game when
I am in your eyes
Couldn't see no color
Couldn't see that kind of light
Lying under cover, laying into your animal
I've fought before, that was my game
And I shut my eyes
The world's a bore
and it's the same
when I'm in disguise
I miss every Ocean
I miss every Sea
I miss the sound of your heels on the floor
I miss every phone call
I miss every screen
I miss the gap in myself where you go
And I feel like, when a Dove cries, and the tears don't roll
I'm faking hope..........I'm faking hope
Under every Ocean
Under every Sea
I get defined by my sadness and I go
I miss every phone call
I miss every screen
I miss the sound of your heels on the floor
I miss every Ocean, I miss every Sea
I miss the gap in myself where you go
And I feel like, when a dove cries, and the tears don't roll
I'm faking hope..........I'm faking hope
