Split Personality

you think
that i won’t see you
while you stand there
in the dark
you suppose
that i can’t hear you
when your
bitter whispering starts
i will beat you this time
i will beat you this time
you say that i will follow
yet i will meet you
face to face
you try to tell me
that my glass is half-empty
while you’re spilling yours
all over the place
i will beat you this time
i will beat you this time
i will beat you this time
i will beat you this time
you say you think
well i listen and i feel
i will have caught up with you
if you ever catch a hold of me
we’ll be making a whole
to climb out of
our split personality
i will beat you this time
i will beat you this time
i will beat you this time
i will beat you this time
we’ll be making a whole
to climb out of

Inappropriate Clothes

. inappropriate clothes
she wears long black boots
pulled onto blue-white legs
she looks kind of funny too
in a short little dress
her skin is so thin
her dull eyes are deep holes
her body is breaking
under the weight
of what she knows
and nobody sees her
‘cause nobody cares
they’re too busy laughing
to notice she wears
inappropriate clothes
for the weather we’re having
inappropriate clothes
for the weather we’re having
she is waxen and waning
trading slow shuffle street talk
like a last seasons manikin
leaning up against the ally wall
she is taking it and making it
selling all she got to give
to feed her nasty crappy habit
she is killing herself to live
and nobody sees her …etc
she has got a little secret
she has got a little fear
never been protected
now she is
positively smeared
she is going to take you
with her
she will love you in revenge
but it’s not really you cursed
she is doing daddy
unto death
doing daddy unto death
and nobody sees her
doing daddy unto death
‘cause nobody cares
doing daddy unto death
they’re too busy laughing
doing daddy unto death
to notice she wears
doing daddy unto death
inappropriate clothes
doing daddy unto death
inappropriate clothes
doing daddy unto death
inappropriate clothes
doing daddy unto death
inappropriate clothes
for the weather we’re having

Misogyny Song

well you can get things started woman
but you won’t always slow them down
(said you can get things started woman
but you won’t always slow them down)
because a man can have no conscience
when he is standing proud
well you can hide in pretty makeup
but that don’t leave no place to run
(said you can hide in pretty makeup
but that don’t leave no place to run)
‘cause neither honest men
nor lying drunks
can stop when it has begun
and if you laugh into the shadows
forget the sanctuary light
yes if you laugh into the shadows
forget the sanctuary light
even beggar men and wise men
all come together in the night
all together now
well if you call a man criminal
put him away inside of you
(you can call a man criminal
if he’s put away inside of you)
‘cause poor men they don’t understand
and the rich won’t give a damn
for a crazy woman’s blues
well now the poor men
they don’t understand
and the rich won’t give a damn
for a crazy woman’s blues

what do you see
that i can’t see
what do you see
that is hidden from me
i’m down in a hole
of dark walls
and it’s so deep
looking up to faces
laughing down at me
what do you know
of living in this darkness
how can you judge
when your hindsight
has not yet seen
that the future here
(here I come)
could be for you or me
can you feel it happening
(to get you)
i’m rising up
(I’m in your – face)
towards your laughing face
and i can’t wait
i just can’t wait
for you to see me again
can you feel it?
where will you run to
when the wheel
of revolution comes
who will you pray to
as you cry
will you remember
my deep grave
and your laughter
will you protest
you meant no harm
will you still think it’s funny
while you try to justify
why you never
took the time to realise
that the future here …etc
here i come

Fool In The Corner
04:32

if i were a king tomorrow
i would still be living for today
and if you were a queen tomorrow
i would fall to my knees
and proclaim
that i
am the fool in the corner
the disbeliever of your scheme
i am the harvester of reason
the doubter of the dream
if i were a priest tomorrow
i would not justify my faith
if you were my confessor
i would not crumble
under your disdain
that i …etc
and each time you offer
the temptation in your touch
i’ll reach through the cracks
of your benign smile to ask
how much
is the cost of your
lovelessness
how high is the price
how much
is the cost of your
lovelessness
how low do you
if i were rich tomorrow
would you
court me as your friend
and if i were dead tomorrow
would you claim
to have saved me at the end
so how much
how high
how much
how high
i want to know how much
is the cost of your
lovelessness
how low
can you get

Pink Song

if i borrowed all my feelings
from a ‘b’ movie’s re-invention
and emotions dead letters sent
without intent
to satisfy or question
would you put me in the pink
wanting nothing more
but the volume of my need
could you put me in the pink
by giving it up
and i will fill it to capacity
if i told you that i stole my hope
from an abandoned lost and found
and that i’d pawned
my golden destiny
for a walk in a strange dark town
would you put me in the pink …etc
would fascination be too much
would the danger be a rush
could temptation ever feel this good
to be stupid and break free to touch
after all you can’t resist what you can’t trust
i want to be put in the pink
feel the volume of my need
i want to be put in the pink
and i will fill it to capacity
i want to be put in the pink
i want to be
put in the pink

what comes of
building castles on
yesterdays dust
‘cause
when the wind blows
your vision goes
your cry grows
when you find you own
sackcloth and ash
sackcloth and ash
that’s what you have
sackcloth and ash
why rise up
rattling the chains
that you made
and paid for
many times over
why threaten to revolt
when you already
disgust us
with your
yesterdays dust
you have
sackcloth and ash
sackcloth and ash
sackcloth and ash
sackcloth and ash
sackcloth and ash
sackcloth and ash
sackcloth and ash
sackcloth and ash
