Upside Down
-----------

Life turns you upside down
You know I'm not shaking
But you always bring me down
Before I'm hanging upside down
She knows I can't take it
I can't take it

Life turns you inside out
You know I'm not faking
But you always bring me around
Before I'm hanging upside down
She knows I can't take it
I can't take it
I can't take it

I
I
I
I
I


Wish (ep and demo versions are virtually identical)
----

Always gode ???
Wish that sometimes maybe you could go
Away
Away

So don't waste time
The reasons I can't give are always mine
It's so hard ???
It's so hard ???
It's so hard ???
It's so hard ???

Look as cream ???
Wish that sometimes you can't always do it
The reasons I can't give are trusting you ???
You always take me by the arm and do it ???
Away
Away
Away
Away


Spin
----

You've been so alone
You haven't found me at all
And I find it so hard
I find it so dark
It's time
It's time

It's what you say now
It's what you say now
It's what you say now

I've been so cold
I'd hear you're hurting alone ???
But it's getting so long
Where have you gone
It's time
It's time

It's what you say now
It's what you say now
It's what you say now
It's what you say now

It's what you, you say now ???


Painful Thing (ep version)
-------------

You don't know anything at all
Excuses always seem to fool you
I cannot come in case you call
All I can really say
It drags me down, down
I'm hot and cold all over

I'm hot and cold all over
Your love weighs down my shoulders
I'm hot and cold all over
Your love is such a painful thing

She knows where she has to go
She knows that I don't want to burn her
A woman's feet begins to slow ???
I'll catch your every breath ???
It drags me down, down

I'm hot and cold all over
Your love is such a painful thing
I'm hot and cold all over
I'm hot and cold

I'm hot and cold all over
I'm hot and cold all over


Crawling Over Me
----------------

Lying on the floor
Where the colour doesn't show
Through the open door
Is a place where I won't go
Time will tie my hands
The willingness to try
Maybe it's inside
I know where it runs to

It takes up all my time
I know where I want to run
It crashes through my mind

It's enough to make you
Crawl on your knees and
Crawl on your knees and
Crawl on your knees and
Crawl over me,
Under me, over me

A piece of you that's mine
A piece of you that's mine
A piece of you that's mine
A piece of you that's mine


Let Me Down Again
-----------------

Can't even think about tomorrow
I feel so bad that I can't swallow
Aah-oh
Aah-oh

Don't even think I might forgive it
You let me down again
You let me down again
You let me down again
You let me down again

I can't imagine pain much deeper
Hot pleasure dripping from my fingers
Aah-oh
Aah-oh

You let me down again
You let me down again
You let me down again
You let me down again
You let me down again
You let me down again

You let me down again


Saccharine
----------

You're not real
You're reeling
You're not seeing
You're stealing
You're not strong
You're feigning ???
You're not sweet
You're saccharine
You're saccharine

You're not sweet
You're saccharine
You're saccharine
You're saccharine


Intravenous
-----------

I feel of ice
It's broken underground
You say it twice
Eventually turn 'round
Always it's the same
You never understand me
Understand me

It's too confused
And this is never found
I'm just like you
Inject me when I'm down

Always it's the same
You never understand me
Always it's the same
Your intravenous life is easy ???
Is easy

Always it's the same
You never understand me
Always it's the same
Your intravenous vein is easy ???
It's easy


Collideoscopic
--------------

I don't know why
It feels so different
It takes some time
Before I'm on my knees

I could pretend
To understand it
I see no end
To this confusion

Say what you say
Do what you do
It's no problem
Say how you'll be
Disguise it from me
It's no problem

Oh yeah

I dont know why
It feels so special
It takes no time
Before I'm on my head ???

Oh yeah

Say what you say
Do what you do
It's no problem
Say how you'll be
Disguise it from me
It's no problem

Say how you feel
So you can reveal
All of your problems
Say what you say
Do what you do
It's no problem

So much
So low ???
So up
So down

Say what you say
Do what you do
It's no problem
Say how you'll be
Disguise it from me
It's no problem

Say what you say
Do what you do
It's no problem


Our Friend Joey
---------------

Bury myself on a bed of nails
Killing myself cause it never fails
With you

I've gotta get all of you
I've gotta get all of you
I only want all of you
I've gotta get all of you

Always goad ???
You never try
I wish you would
I don't know why

Understand the need to rush
Am I wanting far too much
Killing myself on a foolish dream
Killing myself cause I want to be with you

I've gotta get all of you
I've gotta get all of you
I only want all of you
I've gotta get all of you

I've gotta get all of you
I've gotta get all of you
I only want all of you
I've gotta get all of you


Dead Girl Friend
----------------

Don't look back
Please don't cry
I have this need
You must oblige me

There's no way out
So please don't try
I fill your mouth
I hear you cry

As you don't understand me anymore
I tie your wrists
Leave you bleeding, leave you raw
And fantasize, kid myself that you want more

[faint murmuring]

I'm sorry now
Didn't mean to hurt
I couldn't stop
It felt so good

[scream]

As you don't understand me anymore
I tie your wrists
Leave you bleeding, leave you raw
And fantasize, kid myself that you want more

If you don't understand me anymore
I tie your wrists
Leave you bleeding, leave you raw
Fantasize...you want more


Half Life (1992)
---------

So high it's hurting
So wide the line is drawn
I've gotta learn to stop myself from falling

Don't die it's over
Got a life, got a place to grow
Gotta learn to stop myself from falling
Down so low

There's no time to build
It's no horror film
It's so hard to think clearly

Ah
Ah
Oh

Still some time to grow
You know, you know
It's so hard to think clearly

Ah
Ah
Ah
Ah
Ah


I Want To Touch You (demo)
-------------------

I always thought the way you talked was neat
And I dream that when you speak, you speak to me
But you're always out of reach
And I can't control my speech
And I'm scared that when we meet I'll want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you

You're the only soul inside that makes me shake
And the crazy senseless things you made me take
It would really make my day
If you'd only move away
'Cause I'm scared that if you stay I'll want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you

But you're always out of reach
And I can't control my speech
And I'm scared that if we meet
I'll vanish, can't you see

I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you
I want to touch you
Touch you, touch you, touch you, touch you, touch you,
Touch you, touch you, touch you, touch you


Black Metallic (demo)
--------------

I've never seen you when you're smiling
It really gets under my skin
You're never touched by another
I still can't guess what you're after

It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic

I think of you when you're sleeping
And all the secrets that you're keeping
You can't stay all day under the covers
'Cause under there you'll discover

It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
You're turning black metallic

It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic


30th Century Man--as originally done by Scott Walker (written by
Scott Engel)
----------------

See the dwarves and see the giants
Which one would you choose to be?
And if you can't get that together
Here's the answer, here's the key

You can freeze
Like a 30th century man
Like a 30th century man
Play it cool
Like a 30th century man
Like a 30th century man

I'll save my breath and take it with me
'Til a hundred years or so
Shame you won't be there to see me
Shaking hands with Charles DeGaulle

Play it cool and surrender up all you can
Be a 30th century man
You can freeze like a 30th century man
Be a 30th century man
High, high

Be a 30th century man
Play it cool
Be a 30th century man
You can freeze
Be a 30th century man
Play it cool
Be a 30th century man
???

See the dwarves and see the giants
Which one would you choose to be?
And if you can't get that together
Here's the answer, here's the key

You can freeze like a 30th century man
Be a 30th century man
You play it cool
And surrender off all you can
Be a 30th century man
You can freeze like a 30th century man
Be a 30th century man
You play it cool like a 30th century man
Be a 30th century man
You can freeze
And surrender off all you can
Be a 30th century man


Free of Mind
------------

Right now (I feel like/we lack) something far gone ???
Stripped down
Seems like everything I did was wrong
Well, maybe

Delicately laid to rest
In the house of mummy's bless ???
Follow me inside
Delicately free of mind
A vacuum all the time
But it leaves me blind

Find out
Peel away the layers of my skin
Baby
But be sure
Brace yourself for what lies within
Baby

Delicately laid to rest
In the house of mummy's bless ???
Follow me inside
Delicately free of mind
A vacuum all the time
But it leaves me blind

Stripped down

Delicately laid to rest
In the house of mummy's bless ???
Follow me inside
Delicately free of mind
A vacuum all the time
But it leaves me blind


That's When I Reach For My Revolver--as originally done by Mission of
Burma (written by C. Conley)
-----------------------------------

Once I had my heroes
Once I had my dreams
But all of that is changed now
Gets twisted inside out
The truth is not that comfortable, no
No

And Mother taught us patience
The virtues of restraint
And Father taught us boundaries
In honor we must go
The vanity will colour us, yeah

That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when it all gets blown away
That's when I reach for my revolver
That feeling passes by this way

A friend of mine once told me
His one and only aim
To build a giant castle
And in it sign his name
The silence whispers me and you in chains ???

That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when it all gets blown away
That's when I reach for my revolver
That feeling passes by this way

Yeah
And now the sky is empty
But that is nothing new
The dead eyes look upon us
And they tell me we're nothing but things ???

That's when I reach for my revolver (but things)
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver


Don't Want to Know if You Are Lonely--as originally done by Husker Du
(written by Grant Hart)
------------------------------------

I'm curious to know exactly how you are
I keep my distance but my distance is too far
It reassures me just to know that you're okay
But I don't want you to go on leading me this way

And I don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know if you are less than lonely
Don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know, don't want to know

The day you left me left me feeling oh so hurt
Still I'm not sure about all the doubts we had
>From the beginning we both knew it wouldn't last
Decisions have been made, the die has been cast

And I don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know if you are less than lonely
Don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know, don't want to know
Don't want to know

Don't want to know
Don't want to know
Don't want to know
Don't want to know
Don't want to know, know

The phone is ringing and the clock says four AM
If it's your friends then I don't want to hear from them
Please leave a number and a message at the tone
Or you can just go on and leave me alone

And I don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know if you are less than lonely
Don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know, don't want to know
Don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know if you are less than lonely
Don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know


La La Lala La
-------------

Jesus, what a state to be in
Something's wrong, I don't know what I'm fearing
Scream inside towards the christening
Wrap your arms, protection I've been missing

But something close, something near
Don't know what I really fear
Somtimes cold, sometimes warm
Don't know why this need must end

Jesus, what a grip to be in
Something's wrong, the gruesome pain I'm feeling
Step inside the dreams, I follow
Wrap my arms, protection seems so hollow

Nothing's good, nothing's clear
Don't know what I really fear
I can move if I try
It goes deeper every time

La la lala la
La la lala la la
La la lala la
La la lala la la
La la lala la
La la lala la la

La la lala la (Nothing's good, nothing's clear)
La la lala la la (Don't know what I really fear)
La la lala la (I can move if I try)
La la lala la la (It goes deeper everytime)
La la lala la (Nothing's good, nothing's clear)
La la lala la la (Don't know what I really fear)
La la lala la (I can move if I try)
La la lala la la (It goes deeper everytime)
La la lala la (Nothing's good, nothing's clear)
La la lala la la (Don't know what I really fear)
La la lala la (I can move if I try)
La la lala la la (It goes deeper everytime)
La la lala la (Nothing's good, nothing's clear)
La la lala la la (Don't know what I really fear)
La la lala la (I can move if I try)
La la lala la la (It goes deeper everytime)
La la lala la (Nothing's good, nothing's clear)
La la lala la la (Don't know what I really fear)


Something Strange <--- HELP!!!
-----------------

All that I've come to feeling
Is a plastic wig ??? <--- world?
All that is grown
Is a plastic doll
Days so excited
All is just the things
All, all

Come down and see us win
Keepers caught in clear ??? <--- could this be non-English?
All those good times
Is it much too fast
Deep inside the train
So imagination takes you there

And it's something strange
And it's something strange
And it's something strange
And it's something strange

And it's something strange
And it's something strange
And it's something strange
And it's something strange
Something strange


Come Back Again
---------------

Another year
A time event
To take you there
Another time
Another time
Another year
I make it fail
Another time
Some time to kill
Come back to love
Return to love
So don't reap all
It's a small part
The friction starts

Come back again
Come back again
Come back again
Come back again
Come back again
Come back again

She said
Blow the light away
Come back again
Come back again
You never missed
I tell you this
Come back again
Come back again

You know how it feels
My name is clinging so
Be mine, be mine, be there
You can't, you can't, you are here always
Fade away there
To share today

You love to know
Come back again
Come back again
Come back again
