Citadel
03:56

Like a bullet train I run through the lidocaine. We'll fall down. Lay that mine today. Citadel gotta come down. Over and over and over and over again. The white coats turn the sheets. Snip the wire in your brain. And now you know the operation's complete. Is this just a wasted dream? All the ether that I suck? Stop the operation now because I'm making this all up in my mind. Told you I don't ever want to see those white coats again. Return. Separation. Want to be cool? No No No. Wanna be down but it's a little too late. Citadel will fall down. I wanna give you that taste over and over again. As they snip the wires in your brain, told you I don't ever want to see those white coats again. Return. Separation. Stop the operation now I'm making this all up.

Bring out the long knives tonight. We gonna see about it this time, queen. Fie fi fo fum don't run away yeah. I want to put you in a bun without a warning and then it's on the way yeah. What what what what? Here in the halfmoon light it feels like the last chance to make it right. Sorry to come up on you queenside. Sorry to come up on you, queen. I just want to die if you don't want me on the skinny aisle, queen. The skinny aisle: I know I fucked up every file. Please don't wait for me. I'm the key to your slacked out little life. See?

Don't run away yeah. I want to put you in a bun without a warning and then it's on the way yeah. What what what what? Here in the halfmoon light it feels like the last chance to get it right. Sorry to come up on you queenside. Sorry to come up on you, queen. It's all in good time, when you want me on the skinny aisle, queen. The skinny aisle. I know I sucked up every file. Please don't wait for me. I'm the key to your slacked out little life. See, I'm the key to your backslide. Your the Queen of the Stars.

3-Foot Tires & Rising
04:00
|

Minnie Driver looking at the sun. It's a new day rising. Had a lot of fun saving the burning Reichstag. Stepping in time, we saw the Weimar 'round till the days of '39. We saw the ice pack slipping in the sea. We put a new tech fix on the ocean and the trees. We on a street near Hollywood & Vine. We got 3-foot tires, the oceans rise and I float down Vine with my 3-foot tires. Most times, most of my rides come in 3-foot size. Come in! Come inside! I haven't even got it together enough to reach Minnie. Lenny Dykstra staring at the sky. It's a pop fly rising, gotta make a slide to be with Minnie Driver sitting on the pine. We saw the Weimar 'round till the days of '39. Nicki Backstrom skating on the ice. We put a new tech fix on the ocean and the pines. We on a street near Hollywood & Vine, riding 3 feet high, traveling time. Come on! Ghost down Vine with my 3-foot tires. I'm a first time caller. And it's downtime for me. And it's downtime for my family. And my family's got creeds. If I saw you walking by me, I would think to run away. There's a credo that I go by. It says, drink more lemonade.

Strange Time to Love
03:52
|

I got a little strange love. It's a strange love. It's a strained love. It's a strange time to love, Missus Blankenship. All-time relationship. Run along, run along...that's my favorite quip. I got a long way to go...that's my favorite schtick. I got a million tasers and a million hooks. I got a million phasers on stun. It's a strange time to love. Nothing gonna do you harm. You're Coney Island strong. Nothing is wrong with you. Nothing gonna do you wrong. But something goes wrong. Something's always wrong. I got a little strange love. It's a strange love. It's a strained love. It's a strange time to love, Missus Blankenship. I'm on the wrong side of love. In time, due time, embarkation ship. Come along, come along, we got a place in the slip. I got a long way to go. That's my favorite trip. I got a million faces and a million looks. I got a million phasers on stun. It's a strange time to love. Nothing gonna do you wrong. But something goes wrong. Something's always wrong with you. I got a little strange love. Nothing gonna do you harm. You're Coney Island strong. Nothing is wrong with you. I got a little strange love. It's a strange love. It's a strange time to love, Missus Blankenship.

Halo
03:08

Trade off the rust patch from the corner of the halo around your hair. You don't even know. Halo around your hair but you don't even know that I'm trying to get my staring on. Wait. Feel like a snowflake getting blown. Way. Down. Before I know I screaming at the top of my lungs. Say what? Still trying to get my staring on. Halo around your hair but you don't even know. Still trying to get my staring on. Say what? Oh. Huh? Oh. Say what?

Nothing Thrown Away
03:17

Come outside! Pine cone branches awaken your heart. Pine cone will settle the aching inside. Pine cone blow you away. It's dead. Nothing ever covers the taste in my mouth. Nothing ever blows me away. (Come outside!). Nothing ever blows me away. Cant you see we're all in the spotlight? We're not alone, no! Be kind to half life crude creatures and their phones. She said it takes time to get to steady state. A kind of valence between quicksand and the brain. Rise in the battle or fall, open veins and all, nothing's thrown away. Come outside. Pine cone make you awake in your dreams. Baby steps into the ache inside. Pine cone blow you away. But nothing ever covers the taste in my mouth. Nothing ever blows me away (come outside!). Can't you see we're all in the spotliines? We're not alone, no! It was the First Time. You said hello. You said it takes time, I've got your steady state. A kind of balance between system and the change. In the waterfall, I know change is all. And nothing's thrown away. (We're not alone)
