bound 04:20
broken falling drag me through the pouring rain if it makes you happy shaking crawling the ties that bind us bite hard so numb that I no longer can feel you and you can run but I will always want you stolen moments from a life we could never lead left a bond between us breakdown ruin we turn away from everything we need so blind that I no longer can see you and you move on but I will always love you all this time drifting outwards from our hearts now the gulf between is swallowing the stars I don't know where to go no more so lost that I don't dare try to find you so I'll wait and I will always look for you for you and where you are, you are, you are for you are..

I black out my room paint the walls red lay very still never draw a breath I keep my silence turn the radio low channel my resistance divert the flow I search every station for a connection between you and me a little secret but you're giving out distortion every channel, every frequency well I shut down for the night radio silent inside my asylum away from everything that could touch me anyone could hurt now I talk with my fingers through the static they glide across the airwaves come apart as they reach you yeah you smile as every signal dies now I know what it's like radio silent inside my asylum away from everything that could touch me anyone can hurt radio silent inside my asylum away from anything that could touch me anyone could hurt

intravenous rocket fuel has taken hold of my engine heart the steel is cool metallic blue like a starlit sky like the night sky d'ya wanna take a ride...a ride in my super jet car it's gonna take us so far away from here and if you wanna jump out you'd better look down yeah we're up in the sky now somewhere a million miles away the countdown has just run out so pull the blocks away and hit the turbo thrust and we'll be burning up through the ozone haze far away...far away in my super jet car it's gonna take us so far away from here...away from here somewhere a million miles away

I walk through the door and I see you crying again head in your hands holding back the pain kneel down beside you try to take it all away happy when you need me but it never stays that way when the moon is so dark and just like your heart can be so cold and your soul...well who knows what's on the far side of you on the other side and dreams wash ashore never sure if they'll come true lapping at your door breaking waves of love for you turn me into stone with your blue eyes I'm all alone can't get inside where the moon is so dark and just like your heart can be so cold and your soul...well who knows what's on the far side on the other side of you on the other side of you on the other side of you

tv queen 05:53
she's living through the television she does her makeup in her reflection on the screen and while she dreams about what might have been she cuts out faces from old magazines and though so many tears have run down she tries hard...maybe too hard she was the tv queen now she looks like hell she says she's been there just an old has-been in a painted shell she's been to hell and back with a broken heart in front of the television she makes love in remote control when she dreams up another fantasy she draws on memories of a love grown cold and though the years have come and gone she walks tall...get's up after every fall she was a tv queen now she looks like hell she says she's been there just an old drag queen in a painted shell like a faded star a fallen star a faded star a fallen star a faded star a fallen star...
