Stacked Actors
Oh mirror mirror, you're coming in clear
I'm finally somewhere in between
I'm impressed, what a beautiful chest
I never meant to make a big scene
Will you resign to the latest design
You look so messy when you dress up in dreams
One more for hire, a wonderful liar
I think it's time we all should come clean
Stack dead actors, stacked to the rafters
Line up the bastards all I want is the truth
Hey, hey now, can you fake it,
Can you make it look like we want
Hey hey now, can you take it
And we cry when they all die blonde
God bless, what a sensitive mess
Yeah, but things aren't always what they seem
Your teary eyes, your famous disguise
Never knowing who to believe
See through, yeah but what do you do
When you're just another aging drag queen
Breakout
You make me dizzy running circles in my head
One of these days I'll chase you down
Well look who's going crazy now
We're face to face my friend,
Better get out, better get out
You know you make me break out,
make me break out
I don't want to look like that,
i dont want to look like that
You can see this on my face
It's all for you
The more and more I take
I break right through
Therapy still scares me
Putting me on my back again.
I may be crazy, little frayed around the ends
One of these days I'll phase you out
Burn it in the blast off,
burn it in the blast off
Watching me crawl away
Try to get out, try to get out
You know you make me break out,
make me break out
I don't want to look like that,
I dont want to look like that
Generator
Lately I'm getting better
Wish I could stay sick with you
But there's too many egos left to bruise
Call it sin, you can call it whatever,
Eating deep inside of you
Well if it were me it's all I'd ever do
Steal me now and forever
I'll steal something good for you
The criminal in me is no one new
Till you find something better
When there's nothing left to use
And everything starts going down on you
I'm the Generator, firing whenever you quit
Yeah whatever it is, you go out and it's on
Yeah can't you hear my motored heart
You're the one that started it
Send me out on a tether
Swing it round I'll spin your noose
You let it down
I'll hang around with you, till you find someone better
When there's no one left to use, and everyone keeps going down
Live-In Skin
Take your payroll, and your lottery,
There's a place I know,
There's a robbery, and I swear I'll never tell
If you swear you'll never tell, and
We'll all make out so well
We will all make out so well
Head on with my hate, into the lights ahead
I'm amazed that I'm still standing
And I demand that we all blend in
I'm amounted just the same old glitter story
From the sea floor, metamorphosis
And I can't change back for you
I will not change back for you
I must live in skin that's new
I'm a livid skin that's new
Turn your insides out to the outside
Turn the outside in to the inside,
Trade your outside in for the inside
Turn it around again, I'm amounted
Headwires
Have you been headwired
Were you satisfied
Did it free the feelings in your spine
Sleeping way inside all this time
Will you meet your mind where the night collides
Will you greet yourself when the sun arrives
I'll just stay behind, I've met mine
Better than a bullet being fired
Tangled in your headwires now
Help you feed the wires when your head unwinds
And if our headlines become entwined
You can have all mine, I'll be fine
There's a reason why keeping me alive
There's a cure in me that I wish were mine
As long as I can fight, I'll survive
Stationed on the wire, one day I'll let go
Tell them all hell
The sun is on
Arlandria, headwire
Ain't It The Life
Dear Haley, can you save me from the borrowed cloud I'm on
All you gotta do is try,
Pray you're just getting by
Hey wait I thought you'd made it
How'd your bottled crown fall off
Tell me how'd you get so tired
Faded down to the wire
Try living a lie and kicking out the same old guise
Wasting time, so very ordinary
Wait until my bomb goes off
See the actors run and hide
Fake it all in stride
One day we all can say we're gone
And haunt the ground we're from
Everything's so open wide
Here within the divide
Aint it the life, got no crime, just sail on by
M.I.A.
Call and I'll answer at home in the lost and found
You say that I'm much too proud
Someone who's taking pleasure in breaking down
Nevermind the mannequins, drunk in their hollow town,
Drinking their spoils down, cheap imitations
The revelation is now.
You wont find me I'm going MIA
Tonight I'm leaving going MIA
Getting lost in you again is better than being numb
Counting every minute till the feeling comes crashing down
Run when it hit's the ground, I'm good at escaping
But better at flaking out
Calling unanswered the center becomes blown out
Stuck on the inside now
It's fear I'm embracing
I never could face you down
Red, red, laced around your head
Cold and rescued
You wont find me I'm going MIA
Tonight I'm leaving going MIA
So you don't find me I'm going mia
Tonight I'm leaving going MIA
Say good-bye to me I'm going MIA
I can find relief I'm going MIA
Getting lost in you again is better than being numb
Better than playing dumb
