ANIMA ANIMUS


2nd FLOOR
Apartment door
is left ajar
An eye in a glass
on the parquet floor
All the guests
have left and gone
But I'm still here
on the 2nd floor

2nd floor
And I still want more
2nd floor
2nd floor
On the 2nd floor
2nd floor

Aftermath
in an amber glow
A vodka bath
for this shipwrecked soul
Seconds fly
as the years flow by
But I don't care
I'm on the 2nd floor

2nd floor
and I still want more
2nd floor
coming back for more
On the 2nd floor
2nd floor

Why fear death
When death never hurt
no one
2nd floor
on the 2nd floor

2nd floor
2nd floor
On the 2nd floor
coming back for more

On the 2nd floor
2nd floor
2nd floor

Why fear death
When death never hurt
no one
2nd floor
coming back for more
2nd floor
and I still want more
2nd floor

TAKE MINE
Dog in the manger happy days
Why don't you take it all
take what is left
Take mine
Take mine

Counting out
and putting nothing in
You calculate
and multiple your sins
Take mine
Take mine
Take mine
Take mine

I know you scared to be alone
If I were you I would be too
Take mine
Ruled by this it needn't be this way
Your misery seeking company
Take mine
Take mine
Take mine
Take mine

Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?

PRETTIEST THING
I am gone I am sold
Can I take her home while I am sleeping?

I put it on fits so well
Dead fish floating up to the ceiling

She's the prettiest thing I've ever seen
Such a beautiful violence moving in
She's the prettiest thing I've ever seen
Prettiest thing I'm moving in

I put it on it fits my soul
You know she spoke these words
while she was sleeping
I put it on it fits my soul
I put it on it
You know she spoke these words
while she was sleeping

Razor's edge sliding in
Razor's edge
Wanna feel my fingers dipping in
Dip in... dip in... dip in

She's the prettiest thing I've ever seen
Such a beautiful violence coming in
She's the prettiest thing I've ever seen
Such a beautiful violence moving in
Dip in... dip in... dip in
She's the prettiest thing I've ever seen
Prettiest thing I've ever seen

Never say never; do it again
Never say never; do it again
Never say never; do it again
Dip in... dip in... dip in

She's the prettiest thing I've ever seen
Prettiest thing; I'm moving in
She's the prettiest thing I've ever seen
Prettiest thing; I'm coming in

DON'T GO TO SLEEP WITHOUT ME
Don't you go
without me
Don't go
and leave me here

When I lie
on my side
feel my heart
being crushed

Falling through
the spaces
Falling through
an unlit scene

Sleep dust
on your eyelids
Mahjong tiles
flicker serene
play the four winds
in dim lit bars
Aqualung feels heavy

Don't you go
without me
Don't you go
and leave me here

DISCONNECTED
Don't you think it funny
Don't you think it sad
I was thinking of you
thinking frozen land
Make the heart grow fonder
don't make it separate
Just a small reminder
a keepshake

And when you're feeling sad
can't imagine happiness
And when you're feeling glad
Alaska shows her greedy hand

Don't you think it funny
Don't you think it sad
Starting to fade in Siberian land
In Siberia

Just when you're comforted
Just when you start to breathe
the winter pounces
like a band of thieves

Oh the pain of joy
Oh the joy of pain
Zoom in
Zoom out
Cut
Pullback
Fade to black

You're disconnected
Disconnected
You're disconnected
Disconnected

Make the heart grow fonder
then obliterate
Just a small reminder
a keepshake

Don't you think it funny
Don't you think it sad
Nothing left of you in this arctic land
in Antarctica

You're disconnected
Disconnected
You're disconnected
Disconnected

SAY
I heard the news today
Billie's gone away
Left us all for good
No one understood

You only had to say
I would understand

You only had to say
Whatever come what may

I was feeling low
You called and you were too
We'd meet Saturday
It happened on Wednesday

You only had to say
it's sad
I would understand

You only had to say
Whatever come what may

I don't want you brave
A truce we made today
If you're feeling sad
On me you can depend

You only had to say
it's sad
I would understand

You only had to say
it's sad
Whatever come what may

You only had to say
I would understand
Don't be scared to say
Whatever come what may

You only have to say
it's sad
You only have to say
it's sad

EXTERMINATING ANGEL
Here it comes again
Taste of jagged glass and rusty can
There are just black holes
where the stars would be watching
Just black holes
where the stars should've been

Plumes of dirt carress a urine coloured sun
Swarms of angels come to kill your sons

And there's nothing but black holes
where the stars should've been
Nothing but black holes
where the stars would be watching

Oh those strange argonauts
Digging again in your pit
Cover them in menstrual stream
Covered them black gold
Plunge them onto ingots
Ripping through your mentrual stream
Rising up taste of rusty can
and jagged glass feeling again
Here it comes again

Hordes of locusts blot out your sun
Raining down... rain on everyone
Poor little rich thing
Poor little bleeding heart
Poor little misunderstood
Piss on it I'm sick of it
Enough is enough
I wanna fuck it up
In spite of it
Just for the hell of it
I wanna fuck it up

Out of sync out of phase
Out of sight out of spite
Raining down... raining everyone
Poor little rich thing
Poor little bleeding heart
Poor little misunderstood
Piss on it I'm sick of it
Enough is enough

Enough is enough
I wanna fuck it up
For the hell of it
Well it makes me laugh
In spite of it
Out of sync out of phase
Out of sight out of spite
Piss on it I'm sick of it

Here it comes again
Taste of jagged glass and rusty can
There are just black holes
where the stars should've been
Just black holes
where the stars would be watching

TURN IT ON
All you rely on
here come the storms
to shatter control
from the war lords
Can you feel the power
It turns me on
Unpredictable
Turn it on
Turn it on

Feel the power
Invincible
Feel the power
Won't play their games
but we're a playful thing
Everything to risk
Everything to sink

Gonna change what I can
Accept what I can't
Because I've got the power
Chameleon
Turn it on
Feel the power
Unpredictable
Feel the power
Untamable
Turn it on

Hurricane and earthquake
Monsoon and tidal wave
Here come the storms
They really turn me on
Unpredictable
Turn it on
Turn it on
It turns me on
Turn it on
Turn it on

Omnipotent
Unpredictable
Untamable
Invincible
Chameleon
Turn it on Turn it on Turn it on
Turn it on

I WAS ME
I can't tell how it all
first began
Just a face at a window
familiar
So I walked up to see that I was wrong
That's when I first asked if
I was me
If I was me

Same lips same hair
the same stare
When she laughed she was sipping
my favourite drink
With a friend I had known since my birth!
It's not fair I was me
Not she
I was me not she

Everywhere that I go
I see me
In a life that I had
not long ago

I'm not recognised or heard but I swear!
I was me I was me
I was me!
I swear I was me

I walk through the dawn
in a daze
Same lips same hair
the same stare
It's on the tip of my tongue oh oh yeah!
I swear I was me
I was me!
I remember when
I was me!
I remember I was me
I was me

I can't tell how it all
first began
Just a face at a window
familiar
I was me
Oh I swear
I was me
I was me

ANOTHER PLANET
I'm here
I'm here on another planet
How's it with you
on your planet
All was surreal on this planet
I felt so regal it was so romantic

Now it's all changed
and the plot's unfolding
Another fairy tale
with a twisted end

They're coming out the walls
They're seeping in
There's armies of them crawling
They're coming in
They're coming in

Satelite unthinking

Satelite above
looks down unblinking
Satelite of thought
unthinking

They're coming out the walls
They're seeping in
Three odd eyed tentacles
speak in forked tongues
sprouting all over me
and blossoming
I'm breaking out the walls
I'm comin' in
I'm comin' in
I'm comin' in

I'm here
I'm here
On another planet
How's it with you
on your planet

Satelite above
looks down unblinking
Satelite of thought
unthinking

Satelite
Satelite
unthinking

Satelite
Satelite
unthinking

Satelite
Satelite
unthinking
