Miss Lindsay 05:43
lyrics
buy track
Miss Lindsay always kept a neat apartment She tidied all the corners every day Miss Lindsay always threw the biggest parties Too bad her favorite guests could never stay 'Cause she wears a face that she keeps in a jar In the closet where she's gone so far Wow, look at all the broken people Stuck inside a life they made themselves Wow, feel so bad for broken people Just don't make me join them in their hell Miss Lindsay always kept all her appointments She did what was expected, right or wrong Miss Lindsay knew which way the winds were blowing Her moral compass bartered for a song And she'll huff and she'll puff so you cannot hear But the rumor says she's kind of queer Wow, look at all the broken people Stuck inside a life they made themselves Wow, feel so bad for broken people Just don't make me join them in their hell 'Cause there's sun enough to go around If your heart's not buried underground ... Wow ... Look at all the broken people One day Miss Lindsay's garments came unraveled The empress was naked on her throne Miss Lindsay's many servants could not help her Sometimes a lie must wither on its own And her so-called friends went on the attack Having learned from her how to stab a back And the ones who might have lent a hand She'd betrayed before all this began Wow, look at the broken people The kind who think their own lives are a crime Wow, feel so bad for broken people I've been among their number in my time Deliver us from all the broken people Hiding out in houses built of shame Wow, feel so bad for broken people Deliver us from all their fear and pain

Nothing 04:11
lyrics

Life Has not been good to you Sweet Is not your word Fire and acid Filling you Spilling From your shore I don't want your venom I am not the cause I don't want your bullshit You don't care, because ... The void has come The void is in you Nothing spawns nothing but nothing Truth Does not come easily Guile It drips like clouds Demons and angels Hide from you Imbue with specious vows I don't want your kindness You know it's not real I don't want the sadness You don't really feel The void has come The void is in you Nothing spawns nothing but nothing I don't want your venom I am not the cause I don't want your bullshit

Process The Pain 04:10
lyrics

With you behind me there is nothing that I can do You always find me and I put my trust in you You stand behind me, I wait for the whip to crack You stand behind me, and you know you have my back I broaden it Give me time, give me space I can process the pain Give me time, give me space I can process the pain And then I'll return for more With you behind me there is nothing that I can't do With you to guide me, when I put my trust in you I kneel before you, waiting for my master's word I kneel before you, I am humming like a bird A hummingbird Give me time, give me space I can process the pain Give me time, give me space I can process the pain And then I'll return for more With you behind me No rope to bind me You split me open And I open up once more Giving part of myself I make myself whole And your pleasure Is the goal I broaden it A hummingbird All over me Give me time, give me space I can process the pain Give me time, give me space I can process the pain And then I'll return for more With you behind me I put all my trust in you Nothing to bind me as I wait for what is due The bittersweetness The pleasure and the pain The messy neatness The throbbing of a vein All over me Give me time, give me space I can process the pain Give me time, give me space I can process the pain And then I'll return for more Give me time, give me space I can process the pain Give me time, give me space I can process the pain And then I'll return for more For more

Wonder Drug 04:44
lyrics
buy track
You wake long after noon Thick curtain smothers your room I hung around on a hope Quite near the end of my rope You take a leisurely shave I miss the closeness I crave It's up to me if it works I choose to live with your quirks We go for coffee outdoors Five scoops of sugar in yours You're pissed at hipsters again Your tongue's a terrible edge It's been a blade all along I guess I got it all wrong Put all my eggs in this trap Can't seem to get my heart back And love, love, love Is such a wonder drug You wave goodbye to the high To say hello to the low And love, love, love Is such a wonder drug You sit there dumb through the numb It never softens the blow Nobody made me afraid Despite the choices I made But I'm drifting out of control The more I work at the role You seem to care when I'm gone Come back, my timing's all wrong I'm patient up to a fault I'll take the verbal assault I know the terrible past Know all the steps of that dance And you're tough on telling the truth Until it happens to you Can't take the weather inside This place of pain where you hide It's a collaborative crime The way we've murdered our time And love, love, love Is such a wonder drug You say goodbye to the high To wave hello to the low And love, love, love Is such a wonder drug You sit there dumb through the numb It never softens the blow And I? I wish you well But I won't live in hell And love, love, love Is such a wonder drug You say goodbye to the high To wave hello to the low And love, love, love Is such a wonder drug You sit there dumb through the numb It never softens the blow

Make The Call 05:38
lyrics
buy track
Comes a time In your strife When something comes to light Comes a time In your life When everything seems right And that's when You can make the call Be a man Be a boy Be what you invent Make a plan Make a ploy Make it with intent 'Cause that's when You can make the call What you demand What you decide What you command What you do with pride No reprimand Nothing denied You're in control And you can make the call On your own Being scared Trust me I've been there On your own Now you've dared And everything seems pear You still have Time to make the call Take a chance Take a deal Take the time to try Try to dance Try to feel Try to reach the sky You still have Time to make the call What you demand What you decide What you command What you do with pride No reprimand Nothing denied You're in control And you can make the call Don't let them tell you That pigs must fly Grow your wings And shit in their eye Make the call What you demand What you decide What you command What you do with pride No reprimand Nothing denied You're in control And you can make the call

How To Be A Fashion Queen 04:25
lyrics
buy track
I buy on discount I pay with cash You don't like my look, man 'Cause I'm full of sass I clean up nice I'm down and dirty I dress to kill I'm suave and purty Look good in clothes I look good naked I'm the king of cool No need to fake it And this is how This is how This is how to be A fashion queen Don't follow fake trends Not living plush Ain't got no fast car, cause I Still take the bus I make heads turn Just with my style I make hearts yearn Kill 'em with a smile And this is how This is how This is how to be A fashion queen My endless selfies Are a cry of defiance If I don't get your approval I'll compel your compliance Took so long to find myself I don't care what you think Two right in the eyeballs And one in the pink You'll say my look Is too bizarre With a big old stogie And a silver tiara A designer shirt And leather pants But you will never catch me 'Cause you're afraid to take a chance And this is how This is how This is how to be A fashion queen

Pretty As Fuck 05:12
lyrics

(Well, aren't you just the cutest thing ever?) Gaze of the wolf Meek little lamb But I ain't no sheep Just take a look See where you stand I'll just want to sleep Life of the wary Interpret all Bud, I see right through I'd hit that hard I want to ball But I don't care to know you Pretty as fuck Glint in his eye Pretty as fuck For all it's a lie And now I'm moving on I may be low Weak little sop But I know the score Who's gonna win? Who's gonna top? You don't get no more Pretty as fuck That's what he said Pretty as fuck Out of his head And now I'm moving on Now I'm moving on

Elusive Now 04:42
lyrics
buy track
Was it just one more role? A costume for the crowd? Hard to say when he's elusive now Gone away and he's elusive now Star Man, Thin White Duke Too strange to call him proud Hard to say when he's elusive now Gone away and he's elusive now He's gone, he's gone, he's gone He's gone, he's gone, he's gone He's gone, he's gone, he's gone Blew open every door Or was he just strung out? Hard to know when he's elusive now Strike the show, 'cause he's elusive now Jester in hints and paint A truth wrapped in a cloud Hard to know when he's elusive now Let him go 'cause he's elusive now He's gone, he's gone, he's gone He's gone, he's gone, he's gone He's gone, he's gone, he's gone And the bitter hearts will say He traveled less than half the way Lonely hearts gone fallow say We're unfit even for his shadow Have to lose your heroes When they're insufficiently queer Oh damn I only know my changes took heart From his passing strangeness But he's gone, he's gone, he's gone He's gone, he's gone, he's gone He's gone, he's gone, he's gone He's gone, he's gone, he's gone

Raise your voice And let us hear the call Make the choice For all the men in thrall Be the noise Resonate Raise your voice So all can hear And know you're not alone Open eyes So you can see the view Spy the prize Make it belong to you Be the scene Captivate Open eyes And all will see And know they're not alone Share your senses Be the world Alone, we're not alone We're not alone Bare your skin The air is feeling fine We'll begin When you give me The sign Be the hit Palpitate Bare your skin So all can feel And know they're not alone Breathe it all in Inhale the world Let it begin again Loose the zest So we can taste the day Like the rest And never look away Be the tang Cultivate Loose the zest So all can taste And know they're not alone Share your senses Be the world Alone, we're not alone Share your senses Be the world Alone, we're not alone

Damn 05:24
lyrics
buy track
I just watched my fantasies Go up in smoke You're the bloke With the perfect ass I'm the butt Of a cosmic joke Handsome face Working out When you speak You've got a brain Everything I dream about And I can't stand the pain I don't wanna start a fight with fists But I think that God is taking the piss Damn! I wanna fuck you, but I've met your wife Damn! I wanna fuck you, and it's plain to see, she's looking fine Damn! I wanna fuck you, but it's obvious you're straight Damn! I wanna fuck you, but it looks like I've been fucked by fate I just watched my fantasies Go off the tracks She's the babe with the bangin' bust And I'm good, but I can't compete with that Pretty face Killer smile Everything she says is smart Might as well confess right now It's a dagger through my heart I don't wanna rile your better half But it looks like God is having a laugh Damn! I wanna fuck you, but I've met your wife Damn! I wanna fuck you, but it's plain to see, she's looking fine Damn! I wanna fuck you, but it's obvious you're straight Damn! I wanna fuck you, BRB, I gotta masturbate I can't get my fantasies To solve this quirk Been so long since I went both ways Don't know if it still works I'd like to show up at your house Make you flip your lids Turn the both of you inside out But we'd probably wake your kids Don't wanna get stuck here playing the fool Thank God my boyfriend's hot as you Damn! I'll never fuck you, or your smoking wife Damn! I wanna fuck you, and it's plain to see, she's looking fine Damn! I wanna fuck you, but I guess that it can wait Damn! I wanna fuck you, better get home, 'cause I'm running late DAMN
