You can't find me now
My telephone is busted
And now I've got my feet on the ground
I'm leaving, yeah I'm going, yeah I'm getting out of town today
And I won't be around
'Cause I don't have the stomach
I don't have the guts
To pretend I'm still in love today
Today, today, today
You won't see my picture
You won't see my face
I will love myself in spite of myself
Yes
And I will love myself until the end of time
Yes
And I will keep it together
Despite how much I toss and turn
Left, right, left right, left right
I forgot which side of the bed I sleep on
I would rather forget it all
I just twist the knife
And I was convinced I'm done playing my heart out
I was convinced I'm out of rhythm
But despite myself I will get better.

All fucked up over something dumb
And you know what it is
I won't tell you 'cause I love you
And that's that, no more questions
All worked up over nothing
I'm such a coward when all the cards fall
But I will always be your dancer
So messed up over some bad dream
You won't tell me 'cause you love me
We're such cowards in the morning
You don't know just how scared I can be
I'd rather lay here with my back against your long, dark hair
And my mind completely elsewhere
'Cause I will always be your dancer
And I
And I will always be your dancer
When the rug gets pulled away
I'll still be standing on my own two feet
I've improved my balance
I know the attack and the release
But I refuse to become numb
I refuse to get used to it
I wanna love, I wanna hurt
With the best of 'em
I wanna love, I wanna hurt
With the best of 'em
I wanna love, I wanna hurt
With the best of 'em

When I'm in the same timezone
I feel just a little bit closer to you
It twists the knife in
It twists the knife in
I remember every single thing
From start to finish
Gemini
You don't know
And you can't taste it
Gemini
You don't know
And you can't taste it
I don't like the taste
Of the memories of your blue face
I don't like the way my mind conflates
The living with the dead sometimes
Gemini
You don't know
And you can't taste it
Gemini
You don't know
And you can't taste it
No one taught me what to wear
Or how to dye my hair
And you said the dress I bought was ugly
But I liked it

Tangled In Your Curls

You said you wanna be with girls
You're sick of me, you're sick of living in this stupid world
And I don't wanna be a boy
I'm just as sick of the sound of my own stupid voice
And when you finally sobered up
That's you realized that you're not really that in love
Cash your chip in with a smile
Knowing you can just pretend
You're gay just for a little while
It's in your system
Tangled in your curls
It's in your system
Tangled in your curls
And you don't wanna be with guys
And in your saucer eyes
Is when I finally realized
I'm not a girl enough for you
I'm not a man, I'm not a girl enough for me too
It's in your system
Tangled in your curls
It's in your system
Tangled in your curls
I never really had to man up
Or felt manly being brave
It didn't make my shoulders wider
But it happened just the same
I never really had to man up
Or felt manly being brave
It didn't make my shoulders wider
But it happened just the same

Exorcizer (Folk)

In the bathroom's where I saw you disappear
And I kept my mouth shut just like I was taught to
I wasn't ready to watch you come out of that room
The smoke just dissipated 'cause I heard her
Fallin' down the stairs, baby
Crash, crash, crash
Fallin' down the stairs, baby
Crash, crash, crash
Fallin' down the stairs, baby
Crash, crash, crash
Fallin' down the stairs, baby
Crash, crash, crash
I can't blame you if you don't wanna talk things through
I've got a problem with a ghost that I can't exorcise
And in the pleasure and the pain it seeps right through
I can't argue any longer 'cause I hear her
Fallin' down the stairs, baby
Crash, crash, crash
Fallin' down the stairs, baby
Crash, crash, crash
Fallin' down the stairs, baby
Crash, crash, crash
Fallin' down the stairs, baby
Crash, crash, crash
Darlin' you won't understand
The terror that I feel
'Cause when the two of you hit at once
You know it's all so real

Cowboy Killer: Killed

White light
White light
White
Light
White light
Comin' down real slow
Racing through your head
White light
You don't belong in heaven
Your color was always green
'Cause heaven looks like rehab
Too white and too clean
You belong in the earth
With the animals, with the trees
Filtered through
Georgia trees
Into your
Sheer-white sheets
Godrays bounce
From bloody water
And then you die
Before you know it
White light in Marietta, Georgia
This was never your home anyway
And by the time they found you
You couldn't really speak
And sometimes even angels
Can hardly carry your weight
You knew it all along, didn't you
But you never really said a thing
So many mornings that you don't remember
Rolling out of new beds and dirty sheets
Unfamiliar ceilings with the windows open
So many bars they had to drag you from
And good god, you're so skinny
What weight will they carry this time
Yeah, what weight are we gonna carry
'Cause I don't think my arms can hold much more
White light
Filtered through
Georgia trees
Into your
Sheer-white sheets
Godrays bounce
On bloody water
And now we're dead
Before we know it
Cowboy killer killed
White light
White light
White light
White light
White light
White light
White light
White light
White light
White light
White light
White light

Blue Sky Coming

Will I find the peace of mind
That I left behind
In the basement of my old house
I think I will find myself
As beautiful as I found you
Coldest breeze on my back
Won't let up the attack
And I will find something
That makes it all worth it
Truer than true
And I don't know what means
But I know it feels good when I say it
And I had to become a good liar
To tell the truth as well as I do
And I hate myself for it sometimes
But I think that's just taking the pain
With the love along the way as I do
In spite of it all
I will love every moment
Just to get life's reaction
Coldest breeze on my back
Won't let up the attack
And I'll find something
That makes it all worth it
Something that's truer than true
I don't know what that means
But I know it feels good when I say it
And I think think there's a blue, blue sky coming.
