I lost my heart no real surprise it's dead and gone I felt it crawl all up my spine i thought it might have been a dream You've made your point no room to breathe no wrestling here a fair, fair complaint I lost my heart it's all a dream I lost my heart no messin' 'bout forever gone If you've seen it 'round no worries don't go chasing, no it's all a dream You've made your point it's all so sad no harsh demands no place to stay I lost my heart it's all a dream

pin me down down to the ground but stay silence grows stronger than iron bolts so if you leave me here quiet and still up here we are likely to find some peace under the velvet dome break my limbs break me in half or thirds safe and sound bouncing harder than rubber balls

So Long 02:15
so long baby, it's so long so long ago so long take a walk i'll see you down in mexico so please, baby, baby, please watch where you go you'll be wanted and you'll be found baby, oh baby, where you go so long baby, it's so long so long to go so long, see you somewhere around oh somewhere where you go and please, baby, baby, please send a card we'll never see each other with the same eyes oh, baby, baby, when you go so long, it's never anything else so long ago so long take a walk i'll see you with the eskimoes and please baby 'for you leave take this bit of dust and spread it over mountains & over lakes anywhere you go

as i lay my head to rest easy, easy on your chest will you watch me as I go? not so peaceful, heaven bound put it deeper in the ground will they watch us as we go? we pray a little, a little too late as i fade out into black pray the vultures will be back will they catch me as I fall? we pray a little, a little too late for our sins are created by fate are all our sins just created by fate?

love but underneath it all underneath the stars like sadness we collide drugs so far beneath us all we walk but not too far we stay but not for long and i wear nylon boots so i don't get the wet inside we sort of thought we'd be alright sane we see the things we hate we fear the things love so easy on ourselves take the faded photographs the worn out paper parts from torn out pages, hearts
7.
I know, this might end up war I know, the wound might turn out sore I sense a certain kind of dark beneath the crates & willow trees I know, this looks like a war I know, there's blood spots on the floor I know, you're someone I adore I always used to say some words they never used to mean a thing I know, the blood looks like a war I know these pictures on the wall I know the deep sound when they fall And maybe I should be afraid or maybe I should seem afraid but I know these pictures when they fall
8.
someone else is going to die make it work but don't ask why someone perfect way up high I'll never be what you want me to be I'll never see what your eyes want to see when love's around you make it loud you lay it down you pass it round
9.
a fog blows off steam on the other side a faint smell an idea that you never had it seems hard but it's harder than you ever thought the tied ropes on a steamer trying to leave this land my fear of love my ever evolving light far way far away a train crashes on your porch, you're to tired to move a slow motion kind of thing and you're bound to die it seems hard and it gets harder by the hour now the bad commotion the disaster and you don't know why my fear of love my ever evolving light far away
10.
how did all this fall apart? guess you never had a heart... fire out every window we could never be apart, no every story has some quiet just before the action starts shoot for all the wild ones we could never be apart, no so fearless is the wind so steady is the ground we walk on how do all the phonies last time has proved itself so fast aim for all the slow ones we could never be apart, no
