Mild apprehension

Blank dreams of the coming fun

Distort the odds of a turnaround

Gut screams out next to none

So turn it on

Tune it in

And stay inert

You say: I've got the backbone

The back way to escape the gun

Climbing a tree with a missing limb

And not saving anyone

And now it hurts

To stay at home

And see

Flash

The mirror ball's throwing mold

You can't get a grip if there's nothing to hold

See the flash catch a white lily laugh and wilt

But if you must smash a glass first fill it to the hilt

Plants

As far as I know are still,

Still bending toward the light

And if we dance

Until the heart explodes

It'll make this place ignite

And even if this hall collapses

I can stand by my pillar of hope it's just

A case of Flash delirium

Here's a growing culture

Deep inside a corpse

Ages stuck together

Takin it to the source

Timeless desperation

Pictures on a screen scream

Hey people, what does it mean?

Comfort keeps us nice

So quick to donate everything (nothing arrives)

Die wolken drifting blinding smiles circling (einkreisen)

But time's tingling spines

Attaching hands to floor

The rosy-tinted flash

The hot dog's getting cold

And you'll never be as good as the Rolling Stones

Watch the birds in the airport gathering dirt

Crowd the clean magazine chick lifting up her skirt

(Why close one eye and try to

Pledge allegiance to the sun

When plastic ghosts start terrorizing everyone

Geometric troops aligning

Carried up to the burial mounds

My earthbound heart is heavy

Your heartbeat keeps things light

With the violence forever threatening the night

And even if this hall collapses

I can stand by my pillar of hope and trust)

Lines when I close my eyes and just

Aim blindly at the sun

And hear love

When the ghosts start singing terrorizing everyone

Geometric troops aligning

Carried up to the burial mounds with gold

It's a heavy load but your

You rhythm makes it light and explode

Like a violent star keeps threatening the night

And even if this hall collapses

I can stand by my pillar of hope and trust

That our heads won't bust

66 55 red battleships

40 earthlike planets

3 holes 2 tits

1 fork in it's side

Zero tears in their eyes

Sue the spiders

Sink the Welsh

Stab your facebook

Sell sell sell

Undercooked

Overdone

Mass adulation not so funny

Poisoned honey

Pseudo science

Silly money

You're my honey
