96 QUITE BITTER BEINGS

With my perceptions in a mix, down 20 miles through the sticks
To the clouded town of Hellview population 96
Excessive vacancy well maybe in the shadow of an eye
All the strangers pass right through it where the rules just don't apply

At the fork turn left, a store, but on the right stay free from sight
Cause 96 quite bitter beings like to stack the bodies high
The only way to ever leave is overflooded by the storm
And entanglement in Hellview brings you fear in 50 forms
They've deleted all the tourists at the bottom of the lake
And not one supports the cause to leave the blood stay in the veins

Here three miles back is where we are
All we ever wanted was an answer
The civilized are close yet way too far
All we ever wanted was an answer
Footprints giving clue to where we are
All we ever wanted was answer
The civilized are close yet way too far

RIO BRAVO

I've seen it done like the way the dogs do
I'll think it over, we're standing into
Your phony life but now it's all dry can't take it you will see
Not more than others....your phony life
Like I don't hear them, but I'll tell you something else
When we get to the desert it's out

What we left in the past....it tears me up

Pulled into a truck stop...my luck is over
The plan is failing....I think not

What we left in the past...it tears me up

It's not what you're used to in the middle of nowhere
I'm an old man I love to wander distantly
Your phony life and now it's all dry if you think that I had myself controlled
That's a lie

DISENGAGE THE SIMULATOR

With the error that's in my mind and in my soul
I'm flying high
I got a picture in the box that's bringing me to where I am
Yet the eyes are all affixed on you not me for driving blind
And the first time will be the last time that you believe

You're falling as you decide
Face down the whole world wide
Before cannot be retrieved

From all the way up here there's no end
I'm flying high
But the worst is never first and there's a person that will set you straight
Cancelling a force within my brain
For flying high
A simulator has been disengaged

Indifference begins to take sides
Face down the whole world wide
Before cannot be retrieved

From all the way up here there's no end
I'm flying high
But the worst is never first and there's a person that will set you straight

THE HUMAN DRIVE IN HI-FI

I can't deny it all my life
It's the token of my eyes
Something you would try
For the best in the obscene
You just look on your tv screen
To pass away the while
It doesnt matter if you're
Red, black, or in the sack
I've got my grip I've got a hold
Nothing ties them down like prime time in Hi-Fi
But now its getting old

People stop and stare
Here there and everywhere
They've got the blueprints for life
If you keep pretending
The world is ending
Then you'll be fictionized

So stop the human drive
The fierce power switching on the
Ripe adolescent light
Terminates in five
The people standing in the lines
Have seen the film a million times
With a pocket full of dimes
So unless it is for free
You'll spin the country on its side
To be intensified

People stop and stare
Here there and everywhere
They've got the blueprints for life
If you keep pretending
The world is ending
Then you'll be fictionized

It's on this tv
It's on the tv
It's on your tv
It's on the tv
It's on his tv
It's on her tv
It's on his tv
It's on your tv screen!!!

You keep pretending the world is ending...and you'll be fictionized

LOST IN CONTRACEPTION

I was lost in a contraption
Took me days to find direction
Suddenly the moments collide
Finally found the fault in father
Family blood dilutes the water
I was dazed in my direction tonight

Photographed when he hit the ground
No one minds
That's my blind side

I was lost and you're to blame
A man of doubt gave me a name
The obvious was too hard to find

To watch me try is out of line
The sun will shine

To watch me die
Is out of line
The sun will still shine
What's mine is mine
The sun will still shine

KNEE DEEP

Some people don't know, don't know what is wrong so they're knee deep,
Knee deep in sorrow

MY PROMISCUOUS DAUGHTER

I caught my daughter giving head to my brother
I caught my daughter giving head to my brother
I caught my daughter giving head to my brother
I caught my daughter giving head to my brother

Only domestic free
I caught a graphic dream
Some say to innovate
I don't need that again

I caught my daughter giving head to my brother
I caught my daughter giving head to my brother
I caught my daughter giving head to my brother
I caught my daughter giving head to my brother

What can be done with my promiscuous daughter?
What can be done with my promiscuous daughter?
What can be done with my promiscuous daughter?
I can't be down with my promiscuous daughter

Not just a family name
I hear but don't complain
Anyone can feel ashamed
I don't need that again

SARA'S MASK

The first time I saw you I thought that I could just make another
And then I realized that in life you were just another mirror
The first words you spoke were the ones that I vaguely remember
But taddin the night and the times that we haven't spent together

And is it your face that's got you down?
Or is it your mind (mine) when no one's around? (Thinking thoughts of suicide)
And is it your face (mine)that's got you down?
Or is it your mind when no one's around?

And now when she leaves in the dark behind amber waves of cancer
A stroll in the park is a walk for her hopes to be a dancer
A light at the end of a tunnel that's been going on forever
You don't understand why these people are looking unfamiliar

So take my hand 'cause I will walk you around in a mask
Why don't you tell me about

And is it your face that's got you down?
Or is it your mind (mine) when no one's around? (Thinking thoughts of suicide)
And is it your face (mine)that's got you down?
Or is it your mind when no one's around?

And now when you leave in the dark beside everybody's answers
You plant it away to abandon us and live your life the way you like
Avoiding the urge to go sulk in your remedial appearance
Sara I only expect to see the whole thing a little bit clearer

So take my hand 'cause I will walk you around in a mask
Why don't you tell me about

And is it your face that's got you down?
Or is it your mind (mine) when no one's around? (Thinking thoughts of suicide)
And is it your face (mine)that's got you down?
Or is it your mind when no one's around?

So take my hand 'cause I will walk you around in a mask
Why don't you tell me about

TO ALL OF YOU

The mirror doesn't look like them I guess it never will
What would you say if I took a piece for me?
Happiness is your best friend it doesn't appeal to me
Have you ever seen me?

As I'm talking and lest you down
I find all you used to be
But you never talk your way

The universe is in your hands it doesn't appeal to me
What would they say if I took a piece for me?
Happiness is your best friend it doesn't appeal to me
Have you ever seen me?

As I'm talking and lest you down
I find all you used to be
But you never talk your way

The mirror doesn't look like them I guess it never will
What would you say if I took a piece for me?
Happiness is your best friend it doesn't appeal to me
Have you ever seen me?
