The past is a grotesque animal
and in it's eyes you see
how completely wrong you can be
how completely wrong you can be

The sun is out it melts the snow that fell yesterday
makes you wonder
why it bothered

I fell in love with the first cute girl that i met
who could appreciate George Bataille
standing at swedish festival
discussing the "Story of the Eye"
discussing the "Story of the Eye"

It's so embarrassing to need someone like i do you
how can I explain I need you here and not here, too?
how can I explain I need you here and not here, too?

I'm flunking out
I'm flunking out
I'm gone
I'm just gone
but at least I author my own disaster
at least I author my own disaster

Performance breakdown
and I don't want to hear it
I'm just not available
Things could be different
but they're not

Oh, oh
Things could be different
but they're not

The mousy girl screams violence, violence
The mousy girl screams violence
She gets hysterical
'cause they're both so mean
and it's my favorite scene
but the cruelty's so predictable
makes you sad on the stage
Though our love project has so much potential
but it's like we weren't made for this world
though I wouldn't really want to meet someone who was

Do I have to scream in your face?
I've been dodging lamps and vegetables
Throw it all in my face
I don't care
Let's just have some fun
Let's tear this shit apart
Let's tear the fucking house apart
Let's tear our fucking bodies apart
Let's just have some fun

Somehow you've red rovered
the gestapo circling my heart
and nothing can defeat you
No death no ugly world
You've lived so brightly
You've altered everything
I find myself searching for old selves
whilst speeding forward through the plate glass of maturing cells

I've played the unraveler
the parhelion
but even Apocalypse is fleeting
There's no death, no ugly world
Sometimes I wonder if you're mythologizing me like I do you
Mythologizing me like I do you

We want our film to be beautiful, not realistic
Perceive me in the radiance of terror dreams
and you can betray me
You can, you can betray me

Teach me something wonderful
Crown my head, crowd my head with your lilting effects Project your fears on to me
I need to view them see there's nothing to them
I promise you there's nothing to them

I'm so touched by your goodness
You make me feel so criminal
How do you keep it together?
I'm all all unraveled
Taken from AlbumSongAndLyrics.com
but you know,
no matter where we are
we're always touching by underground wires
I've explored you with the detachment of an analyst
but most nights we've raided the same kingdoms
and none of our secrets are physical now
and none of our secrets are physical now
