decapitate the strangers eye the flesh and bones are just disguises teeth of the mountain teeth of the witch my circuits all malfunctioning while semen smells adsorb the protein teeth of the mountain teeth of the witch I gotta one way flight and the seasons aright i'm going up three times i'm only coming down twice in the sunlight of my worst mind there was nothing that I could find I attack the messengers of love my head set to self destruct teeth of the mountain teeth of the witch the sick and old have long gone rotten Id use my words but I forgot them teeth of the mountain teeth of the witch
2.
microscopic stain not showered shaved or well behaved apathetic yawn so sorry if I’m not much fun you know I have my doubts my fragile brain will burn this out straight down in hell I sit around and circulate my blood cells there’s no connection just this loss of affection dragging me down oh but I ain’t sad chemicals gone bad oh and I ain’t mad chemicals gone bad it’s nothing to get hung about purple syrup high wake to find her in a tongue tie pluck her like a plumb celebrate the art of living dumb she’s my soul extractor dry sockets gonna split me in two now I miss that simple sound of no one, no one else around
3.
laminated little spending machines looks like they made it they’re the upper deck pets of the king and queen now animated on the silver screen lookin’ faded it’s the cat scan man selling slightly used guillotines I woke up to find, that dusty dream was dead I looked outside, the streets were stained in red guess they all lost their heads... now it’s a ruby red summer, a ruby red summer, dead beneath the covers, man it’s such a bummer beating up your brothers, stealing from your mothers, ruby red summer, yeah it’s such a bummer now
4.
so we crawl up the stairs secrets safer way up here little birds beneath the trees, borrowing their babies in my brain dogs eat grass might melt away old memories cut up kid cartoons, fill my mouth with magazines only lies and dead fruit flies, break my teeth so gently as they leave so swallow up the rain, somethings sinister is waiting for me it’s hard to explain, hardly recognize a friend from an enemy the world bursting endlessly away, from me
5.
Highway 02:13
car in motion, car in motion take my body, to the ocean i’ve been stranded empty handed and I won’t be late, I won’t be late set my watch right, for the big day I’ve been waiting I’ve been patient and she's got a hopeless club she's gonna break them all oh no, not me watch me leave in the rays of the sun windows down it wont matter watch me leave in the rays of the sun in a highway goodbye
6.
She Arrived 05:41
up above, the bones and warm debris in my tree, thats where she found me she said "come off it man and that ain’t no way to be come down back to the ground and join the jamboree” we sat and watched the people scurry down the lanes lost in their little worlds just waiting for the day that the mother sun will take em all away was it love? was it just the season? she snuck inside and gave me all my reasons she said that feeling dead’s no way to live your life come down back to the ground hey follow me outside out in the garden where the light can find our eyes among the flower trees with pedals pink & white twisting the tiger’s teeth until they do decay we sit here waiting for the day that the mother sun will take us all away yeah she loves us all much more than words can say
7.
sit down in the snow everyone is hallow from the red wood forest to the gulf stream F.L.O. oranges are dripping down the plateau and it really seems we've been here for awhile my thoughts are more repetitive than Andy's my vomit smells like newborn' cotton candy and its only a speculation that you love me no replacement thought I heard you talk to me from the car radio turn the tv up to creepy paranoia should be sleeping
8.
Candy Eyes 03:53
swim always used to play the part at the circus strung her strings too sharp and watched, her fingers, fly, away when i kissed her i was surprised to find some subtle sister with a split skull mind and candy eyes stop living in your lies come outside candy eyes swim I’m sorry i’ve been so stoned and hallow shotguns and cigarettes it seem a lot to swallow while i’m, fibbing i’m feeling fine, and alright you motor all around in your boots of love swim I think I know who your really thinking of candy eyes stop living in your lies come outside candy eyes
9.
Lazy 03:58
yeah I'm lazy yeah I run my mouth change the conversation its just going round and round there's not approximation for when your karma's coming down and darling, we gotta take some time for ourselves and maybe, we can come back stronger and in good health it's complicated it's so simple actually gotta get my head straight gotta find me some relief cause when we got together it happened naturally and darling, we gotta take some time for ourselves and maybe, we can come back stronger and in good health

johnny come lately, fresh from the golf course a mean man tried to stick me in a capsule trying to slice an apple on the freeway you went your way I went down swinging isn't it nice? taking the long way home stare at the wall wish I could walk right out my skull cut my feet on multi-color eggshells down where the band sells merchandise from the van I don't quite understand all supply no demand i'm not jaded I just know were gonna make it isn't it nice? taking the long way home stare at the wall wish I could walk right out my skull its such a lonely curse everyone around gets hurt and it might get worse forever stuck in maximum ernst
