Funny Thing

destiny is a funny thing
it can't be stopped by bargaining
how did i never notice you before
now that i do i want you more
life's too short for second guessing
that look you gave was a blessing
i chased you
you chased me
we both ran in harmony
running around the world until we met each other on the side
then you turned your back on me
denied you ever felt the need
you denied every look you gave
and buried the truth in an unmarked grave
romance can be a funny thing
you don't even see it happening
i knew you for years
before i knew you could put me in tears
i chased you
you chased me
we both ran in harmony
running around the world until we met each other on the side
then you turned your back on me
denied you ever felt the need
you denied every look you gave
and buried the truth in an unmarked grave

Just One Night
03:39

my heart is silver
yours is gold
we will know each other when we are old
there's no mysteries left to discover
i could never be your perfect lover
i say what's wrong you say what's right
how about we give it just one night
i don't want to die without saying i know
what its like to be with you
what do you say to just one night
when it's all over we can have a fight
what do you say we drink from the same cup
when it's all over we can make up
we always do anyway
i like it simple
you like it confused
i like it tender
and you like to be abused
there's no melody that we haven't played
it's just a little kiss why are you afraid
we can get drunk so we don't recall
wake up and pretend we did nothing at all
we can make it last
but just for one night
and then we walk away even though it's right
what do you say to just one night
when it's all over we can have a fight
what do you say we drink from the same cup
when it's all over we can make up

The Captain's Daughters
04:29

i have sailed the seven seas
i have crossed the earth's degrees
i have brought you sand and salt
and still everything is my fault
i will return to the waves
the ocean's full of unmarked graves
ghost ships drift from unknown slaughters
but all i fear are the captain's daughters
with eyes green like the sea they stare
inviting me to their cabin's fare
begging me but i do not dare
i'll stay true to you i swear
dreams come darkly in the night
drifting voices i cannot fight
eyes of green and nails of red
biting sharply in my head
a night of sweat and screams i saw
the ocean rising through it all
wraiths like clouds like dark marauders
dash the ship and the captain's daughters
with eyes green like the sea they stare
inviting me to their cabin's fare
begging me but i do not dare
i'll stay true to you i swear
drifting blindly in the sea
no one comes to rescue me
sinking softly in the deep
eyes of green and lips so sweet
with eyes green like the sea they stare
inviting me to their cabin's fare
begging me but i do not dare
i'll stay true to you i swear

Tinker Toy

tinker toy brain
lock peg and respond to the external stimulation
physical strain
crush the tiny ampule and then watch the blood come flowing out
you can't say that my heart isn't beating
a perfect Turing consciousness
what's it matter if you're lost in this
you can't say that i'm alive, girl
no one can see if i'm working perfectly
love is real
fantasy for me
destiny is revealed
lock the closet door
turn me off shut out the light
in my life 'till you need a friend
i will wait alone
knowing that you wont' forget your tinker toy
not even in a thousand years
you can't say that my heart isn't beating
a perfect Turing consciousness
what's it matter if you're lost in this
you can't say that i'm alive, girl
no one can see if i'm working perfectly
love is real
fantasy for me
destiny is revealed

Gift

are you going out tonight
wearing that blue dress
are you coming home tonight
is there something you need to confess
when you come home your hair is a mess
when you come home there's a tear in your dress
did you really think that i wouldn't find out
because i know something even you can't lie about
you gave me the same gift he gave you before
i can't walk away i'm your ever loving whore
you gave me the same gift he gave you before
i can't walk away i'm your ever loving whore
now i lay me down tonight
i've given up living and trying to fight
they cut my morphine
and they cut my hope
my family damns you for tying the rope
when i go home i will meet my lord
and i will beg him please with a blasphemous word
to put you through the hell that you put me through
damning you will be the last thing i do
you gave me the same gift he gave you before
i can't walk away i'm your ever loving whore
you gave me the same gift he gave you before
i can't walk away i'm your ever loving whore

Learn to Love
03:30

it doesn't matter where we are going
if we don't know where we've been
and if your fear is growing well
its better than living in sin
learn to love
it's just like hate
a feeling that we can't break
learn to fear
it's just like life
love is the act of sacrifice
it doesn't matter who you remember
if you don't even know yourself
and if you're heart is dismembered
that just means that you're drowning in wealth
learn to love
it's just like hate
a feeling that we can't break
learn to fear
it's just like life
love is the act of sacrifice
