Big nights are black and blue
They get cold and they get wet And they're calling out for you Like no one you ever met No one dreams in the hours around me The more I lose the more you find me I lose track with every kiss We shouldn't be isolated like this Yeah, you're my friend And when we're lost I'll still hold your hand Revealed in white when the shadows fail In any shadow that you can name I'll be the shadow of your name Hold the prize close to your heart Prizes made for those who failed Hold the prize away from you So maybe you can hold me as well When time peels off your statued skin I'll still be fooled by what remains Yeah whatever's left of you will be my dream Yeah, you're my friend And when we're drunk I'll still hold your hand Revealed in white when the shadows fail In any shadow that you can name I'll be the shadow of your name In any shadow that you name I'll be the shadow of the name I'll be the shadow of your name |

The hospital wouldn't admit you
So we go home again Right back to the same old room Right back to the same old thing But you know you're just another girl Come from some carry-out in hell You're just another story how they fucked up the life Of a sweet girl We'll sit and look at the street Watch the El Dorados roll by You can't look your murderers You can't look them in the eye But you know they can always spot you From a mile away They give you anything you want They'll do anything you say And outside this bar there's no one alive Outside this bar how does anyone survive Together you and me you know we've gotta destroy this world C'mon darling we've gotta destroy this world And I remember when Your girlfriend would put you on display You'd be the life of the party Til they come and drag you away But in the end we'll watch the pattern As it begins to tear We'll see the chaos that's underneath All the clothes that the angels wear And outside this bar there's no one alive Outside this bar how does anyone survive Together you and me you know we'll never destroy this world C'mon baby I wish we could destroy this world Outside this bar Together you and me turn this quiet night into silence Together we'll turn this love into violence |

I hold your dress, your dress is blue
I'm a coin that fell into the sea Now stumbling around, I'm lost from view Do you know what became of me He can see with his eyes closed He'll leave you something to remember him by Valentine said no way out No way out and no goodbye Now you're finally at my mercy Now you're at my beck and call You were born with just one kiss That's all it took He comes to this bar, he gets desperate He's been shot and killed by love Sits at the bar thinks about all those angels in heaven And offer him to the overpass above I hold your dress, your dress is blue I am a coin that fell into the sea Stumbling around but now I'm lost from view On the losing side of eternity Now you're finally at my mercy Now you're at my beck and call You were born with just one kiss That's all it took |

Gary tell me why the leaves on the trees
Are falling this early as the spring Why the leaves on the trees that are falling on us Are like the words to the song I've lived my whole life to sing If you swim too much you'll drown If we sit here and drink enough beer We'll be two inflatable dolls in a hooker's bad dream When the storm reaches us we'll be two blind drunks Who've absorbed through the skin a whole lifetime of kerosene If you drink too much you will dream And the shame of my life is watching you Gary, I think we've worn out our welcome They're waiting for us to leave Gary, they've got a new kind of person A newer, stronger, cleaner breed And I think I just came in my pants Oh baby do you want to dance Everything collapses here, slow motion And the roots of the dance and the stain in my pants Are beyond any small man's conception If you drink too much you will drown And the shame of my life is watching you drown |

I remember how I let you down
Everything you say reminds me of the pain How you lost your dignity Passing in and out of a dream Is there some secret I'm supposed to know Is there some secret I'd always miss 'Cause there's no dignity when you have to live Within the boundaries of a kiss And the nightwatchman Yeah he's asleep Nightwatchman Oh come on tell me what's wrong Nightwatchman Is the night too long Is the same lie you gave me before I don't care anything you say is just fine I'll just sit and watch the traffic passing by outside The will in the world it's the prevailing tide You're supposed to watch the night as it passes by You're never supposed to need anyone 'Cause once I knew the secret to happiness I knew it was oh but now it's gone And the nightwatchman Yeah he's asleep Nightwatchman I can't wake him up Watchman C'mon tell me what's wrong Nightwatchman Is the night too long |

You got me good, you did the right thing
And nothing matters everything's understood You did the right thing Are you gonna be my judge and jury at night 'Cause I'm busy baby with the electric light I'm not afraid of it why are you, why are you C'mon tell me the truth I was just a little bit lonely and that's not a crime I was crying for the very last time I was caught blind staring into your electric light But I'm never going back again I'm never going to go back again At a drink booth for a straight pack in the room You could see me down here again That is not a very pretty sight I can see pretty face but you're raped every night It's all plain as day in the electric light But I'm never going back again No, I'm never going to go back again |

Where are all your brothers and sisters?
'Cause I hope they're not all like you Where are all your brothers and sisters? 'Cause I get so lonely when there's just you Why do you hate me so bad? 'Cause I was the best friend you ever had Tell me why you gave up so easily Yeah I guess that you just lost your head The same water falls in lightning and snow The same scene of failure every night The same echoes reach me from far away Echoes of the end and the feign in my old day Caught a small scene on my mom's TV She watched it when she was lonely at night Oh God I hate you Telling me what's gonna happen the rest of my life The same water falls in lightning and snow The same scene of failure every night It's read all off of your face It's in everything you say Echoes in the end And the fade of night and day Get so lonely |

Now that we've perfected the art of love
Now all the lights shine on me and misery My good friend misery You can be cured by a single touch You can get up and walk away Anything that you say The drive of the road again 'Cause I'll be your only friend Right before we touch the ground The night asleep, loving sound Sweet loving sound |

This year, oh what's the look this year
Is it the look of things to come Has it all been said, has it all been done The sun upon the sea Did you dress that way for me This year everyone just stood around And watched my family tree burn down Watched it crumble on the ground Making no protesting sound As if justice was finally found And anything beautiful That you can contrive Has no desire to survive This year the mirror the wall It cracked right through the middle And spring turned into fall Love the most beautiful killer of them all |
