The beast and dragon, adored
You been gone so long
Where you been for so long
I went to places unknown
Rented a room
And I forgot my pen
Shook my twin
And I had to find the feelin again

Now all I need is a crew
One that can act as if
One that can slay on cue
And sneeze and sniff
Uh-huh alright
I'm going back to the water
Been landlocked too long

I got a feelin it don't come cheap
I got a feelin oh and then it got to me
It took its time a-working into my soul
I got to believe it come from rock and roll
Believe it come from rock and roll

Where did you get for so long
I been learning my scene
I been watching my friends move away
I summon my love back to me
And I went down by the seawall
That's when I knew, knew They Never Got You

Great dominions they don't come cheap
Great dominions they just want you to leave
I got the meaning the meanings air tight
Said it's not what you expected but it could be right

I got a feelin it didn't come free
I got a feelin and then it got to me
When you don't feel it it shows they tear out your soul
And when you believe they call it rock and roll
And when you believe they call it rock and roll

I wanna change your mind
Said I wanna set it right this time
I'm looking through you
You know who you are
And planning for the apocalypse
Is not considered
Considered cool
I don't suggest it myself
But no I won't sweat

I wanna change your ways
Said I'm gonna get it right one of these days
And I'm looking through you
Riding the brakes
Bringing about the apocalypse
Is not considered
Considered cool
Still you go setting it up
But never give it a thought
Just go setting it up

My mathematical mind can see the breaks
So I'm gonna stop riding the brakes
No no no no more ride the brakes
Instead I'm gonna see your stakes
Yeah I'm gonna see the stakes

I got nothing
You got something
I feel out of place
Looking through your window
Into the delicate place
Reflections stating obvious mating holds

I'll own up to you if you own up to me
I'll picture for you if you picture for me

Have you got the answer
Have I yet won the part
Is this just your way of breaking my heart
Everyone denies it but they just want to be told

I'll hold if for you if you hold it for me
I'll picture for you if you picture for me
The delicate place
The questions it raise
The delicate place

I got nothing
You got something
I feel out of place
Looking through that window
Into the delicate place


I'll own up to you if you own up to me
I'll picture for you if you picture for me
The delicate place
The questions it raise
The delicate place yeah
The delicate place yeah
The delicate place yeah

Always on the outside always looking in
I was in this drop D metal band we called Requiem
And they'd say relax
But I can't be a man this far down on the map

I was sold for suspect drawings
Underneath a makeshift awning
Now I'm yours
Know I'm here
Read it all front and back
But I can't relax
With my knees on the ground and a stick in my back
Sister Jack

I was on the outside
I was lookin in
I was in a drop D metal band we called Requiem
And I can't relax
With my knees on the ground and a stick in my back
Sister Jack

No I can't just relax
Knowing that you're coming back
Sister Jack

Remember the weight of the world?
It's a sound that we used to buy
On cassette and 45
And now this little girl
She says, "Will we make it at all?
800 miles is a drive"

Yeah, you got the weight of the world
Coming down like a mother's eye
And all that you can
All that you can give is a cold goodbye
The law enforcement's impressed
You've survived to this age
Strapped-up soldiers
They'll lock you in a cage without goodbye
For a nickel bribe

But, aw, no, where are you tonight?
And how'd we get here?
It's too late to break it off
I need a release
The signals have called
But that don't get me off
I summon you to appear, my love

Uh-huh
Mm, uh-huh

Got the weight of the world
I summon you here, my love

Remember the weight of the world?
It's a sound that we used to buy
And all that you can
All that you can give is a cold goodbye
The law enforcement's impressed
You've survived to this age
Strapped-up soldiers

For a nickel bribe

But aw, no, where are you tonight?
And how'd we get here?
It's too late to break it off
I need a release
The signals have called
But that don't get me off
I summon you here, my love

Uh-huh
Mm, uh-huh

Got the weight of the world
I summon you here, my love

Na-na
Na-na, uh-huh

The signals have called
But that don't get me off
I summon you here, my love

Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, bye
Ooh-hoo

Hung up and bent on a stranger
Just trying to swing a full-time ride
I never knew the cold hand of danger
Til I met this one and took it inside

Now I can't get near it
Don't want to hear it
My cover's blown
I walked in the rain like a drone
All the way to Marquette

The infinite pet

I got something to tell you
Far outside the black and white
Aw I got something I want to tell you
But who will receive it tonight

When I got up I cut my neckrug off
Resigned my name to the ranks of the blamed and the scoffed
Cursing the day I met

The infinite pet
Comes when you pirouette

Hung up and bent on a stranger
Just trying to swing a full-time ride
I never knew the cold hand of danger
Til I met this one and took it inside

I sat back I put my neckshirt on
Resigned myself to the fate of the failed and the conned
Just like that day I met

The infinite pet
Cheaper than all your threats
Comes when you pirouette
The the the the infinite pet
The infinite

We was walking through the park
Trying to get home before too dark
Who was it that we saw that night
Was it you?

Someone doing something not right
Shocked to see us interrupting their delight
Who was it that we saw that night
Was it you?

Tucked away inside of the wood
Tucked away inside and up to no good
Who was it that was saw that night
Was it you?

And we was cutting through the park
Trying to get home before too dark
Who was it that we saw that night
Was it you?

You where you were coming up
Did you think everyone knew
Something unclear

And when you thrown in a crowd
Could you believe yourself
Did you repeat yourself
Cause no one will hear
Just say it again
Cause they never got you and you never got them
Uh-huh

Don't let it break
Don't let it start
Don't let 'em in
Don't go too far

Cover your tracks
Cover the path to the heart
Don't let those footholds start
And don't let no one in
Cause they never got you and you never got them
Uh-huh

You when you were breaking up
Oh now they...they was just waking up
Just waking up
And back in that place where you could fall
Did it pay to play along
That's where I'm coming from
I'd rather roll it myself
Just let it be
Cause I never got them and they never got me
No I never got them and they never got me

I was a heartbeat on the danger side
Just had to see what it all was like
Put your nose in that
Oh oh yeah
Although you try to sidestep
Merchants of soul don't let

Hey what you doing on the danger side
Yes you're looking for us we know that's right
That way you move it's all an act
So get in
We know you wanna give in
And of course we'll fix you up exact
We'll mail you back
Mm hmmm!

Mixed up and lonely on the danger side
Ralph Reed was driving
Said he wants to go all night
I made him wait, took my time to decide
To get wise
The fiends are fiendin' outside
Merchants of soul so unkind
Oh yeah
Merchants of soul they don't mind
They'll take your soul I need mine
