Lost a Friend

Could you get me a blanket and put me to bed?
Put me to rest and get a lullaby stuck in my head.
I need somebody to lean on, got a tendency to dream on, so don’t wake me up.
Could you get me a drink or get me a think tank?
I got a feeling that I’m running out of luck and I got two shots and another one is coming cause I’m drowning it out tonight.
Now I’m thinking that I watched it end
My mind is breaking up because I lost a friend
I pushed her way too far and she fell off the edge
My mind is breaking up because I lost a friend
Lost a friend and now she’s gone
I should have never touched you,
but I just wanted to love you one more time and now I’m drunk thinkin of you and
I got a lot of regrets, I made a lot of mistakes, and now I just want somebody to come and take my place
Could you get me a new face?
Or get me a new place
Or get me a new fang just so I can bite somebody
I don’t want to fight somebody, but sometimes I just want to be punched so I can feel the lights above me
Could you get me together?
Could you send me to the looney bin so I can feel the better weather
The clouds are ruminating inside my head
I said its loud and ruminating inside my head
I said its loud and ruminating inside the bed
That we used to sleep in together but now its dead
And I just want you to know that my soul has a hole and I feel like I want to explode
Because I watched it end
My mind is breaking up because I lost a friend
I pushed her way too far and she fell off the edge
My mind is breaking up because I lost a friend
Lost a friend oh yes I watched it end
My mind is breaking up because I lost a friend
I pushed her way too far and she fell off the edge
My mind is breaking up because I lost a friend
Lost a friend and now she’s gone

The devil don’t live downstairs no more no the devil don’t live downstairs
Yea he’s cooking up a dinner with the family, so come on pull up a chair
The devil don’t live downstairs no more no the devil don’t live downstairs
Yea he’s cooking up a dinner with the family, so come on pull up a chair
I said a young man’s bones don’t shiver like an old man’s cane
Come back to me
Don’t look at the sun straight in the face, baby gonna burn
Come back to me
Trying to dance with the devil inside my sentimental side
Come back to me
Now open up the basement, see the gates of hell
Like a mannequin, I’m feeling stiff again, three headed women and “oh no I’m sinning again”
If you’re shivering I got the medicine man locked up in the medicine cabinet
Yea, hold me down, yea, slow me down, yea yea, no, don’t know how, no, open mouth, yea, yea
The devil don’t live downstairs no more no the devil don’t live downstairs
Yea he’s cooking up a dinner with the family, so come on pull up a chair
The devil don’t live downstairs no more no the devil don’t live downstairs
Yea he’s cooking up a dinner with the family, so come on pull up a chair
Come on pull up a seat, sit next to me, its nice to meet ya, when he greets ya, he’ll beseech ya to be evil, don’t take heed its just a trick ya see
No everybody gonna want to get up
Cause it’s a bloodbath and I got a reason to suspect you
And I’m getting sick of the bluff
So when you’re ready to confess I got a booth and a book
Don’t gimme that look, I’m missing the hook,
I’m kissing the cake, I made a mistake
I’m stuck in a daze, I’m changing my ways,
I’m changing my mind , I’m switching the track,
I’m dressing in black, I want to be back at the action
Yea, hold me down, yea, slow me down, yea yea, no, don’t know how, no, open mouth, yea, yea
Ay ah, the devil’s on his way today – ah
He’ll cook ya up serve ya for breakfast
The only thing to do is pray ah oh ah ay ah oh ah
The devil don’t live downstairs no more no the devil don’t live downstairs
Yea he’s cooking up a dinner with the family, so come on pull up a chair
The devil don’t live downstairs no more no the devil don’t live downstairs
Yea he’s cooking up a dinner with the family, so come on pull up a chair

I Don't See Bodies
02:17

I’ve been looking through your window
Cause I want to watch him cry
Then I got stuck inside your pillow
And I’m so down I don’t know why
Lord forgive me, cause I know I’m on to something
I’m picking up the broken pieces that we left behind
Oh yea, well look at the mess we made, it’s too late baby
Oh my my, oh my my, oh I gotta get up I gotta get going
oh my my, oh my my, what is with this place?
I don’t see bodies I just see the blood and I know it’s too late for you.
Ketamine, dopamine
Whatcha mean? I don’t know
Where’d she go? I don’t know
Whatcha say? I don’t know
Ketamine, dopamine
Whatcha mean? I don’t know
I don’t know, I don’t know
Ketamine, dopamine
I flip on the light and she’s gone and I wake up alone and I just want to move on
I’m sick of this feeling like I am a broken man
I’ve been creeping through your nightmare
Cause I want to hear him scream
Then I got sick and tired of waiting
So I just went a told the queen
Lord forgive me, cause I know I’m on to something
I’m picking up the broken pieces that we left behind
Oh yea, well look at the mess we made, it’s too late baby
Oh my my, oh my my, oh I gotta get up I gotta get going
oh my my, oh my my, what is with this place?
I don’t see bodies I just see the blood and I know it’s too late for you

Feed My Fantasy
03:02

I didn’t mean to hurt ya
I didn’t mean to push ya, no
I didn’t mean to act up, no, I didn’t mean to fight
Could ya tidy up my face, and put me back in my place
And get me some good graces so I can be okay
Could ya keep the lights on, I’m looking for someone
To help me find a new disguise
Now the smoke is rising, you’re cooking me up in your pan with the flame on high
Could ya help my find my soul and keep me out of the cold, yea
Put me in a straightjacket and just leave me alone
I’m gonna lose my patience,
So I’m locking it up and throwing away the key.
I’ve got a new frustration so I’m taking my time to feed my fantasy
I’m gonna lose my patience,
So I’m locking it up and throwing away the key.
I’ve got a new frustration so I’m taking my time to feed my fantasy
Ooo sick and stupid I think I’m gonna lose it
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you is clueless about me
Help me back on my feet, yea, give me just what I need
Don’t wake me up when I’m dreaming
Hallucinating stupid illusions, the elemental boo hiss
Holy holy matrimony, hopefully I’m scooting tonight
You strip me down to my bones
Creeping up on that throne, yea
Put me in a straightjacket and just leave me alone
I’m gonna lose my patience,
So I’m locking it up and throwing away the key.
I’ve got a new frustration so I’m taking my time to feed my fantasy
I’m gonna lose my patience,
So I’m locking it up and throwing away the key.
I’ve got a new frustration so I’m taking my time to feed my fantasy

New Tsunami
03:10
|

What a day, what a day we had
What a face, what a face you made
What a mistake, at the right place at the wrong time
And I didn’t mean to go all night long
What a day, what a day we had
What a face, what a face you made
What a mistake, at the right place at the wrong time
And I didn’t mean to go all night long, yea
A broken soul I got to walk it off
I flip my lid and now you write me off
A broken soul I got to walk it off, walk it off
Give me strength, now
All the killing in the hotel lobby. Politician folding origami.
All the children with automatic weapons
And everybody’s running from a new tsunami
All the killing in the hotel lobby. Politician folding origami.
All the children with automatic weapons
And everybody’s running from a new tsunami
Don’t we got a lot of work to do today?
Don’t we got a lot of mouths to feed?
Don’t you got a lot of friends to make today?
Gonna wait the day out, so give me strength today now, yea
Hold me up the sky is falling down
And the king I think he lost his crown
Now the kingdom’s going to hell
Time to wish em’ well, time to wish em’ well
Wait its a rat race I’m in last place but the winds at my back and its got a face pace
Tie my last lace up, and face all the mistakes
Gotta vacate, ready to die, ready to lay waste
Get in the fast lane, up on the edge up at the last wake
Speed up the frame rate, get in the back, get in the new wave
Gotta be doomsday, red in the blue face
Gotta be doomsday, red in the blue face
Red in the blue face
All the killing in the hotel lobby. Politician folding origami.
All the children with automatic weapons
And everybody’s running from a new tsunami
All the killing in the hotel lobby. Politician folding origami.
All the children with automatic weapons
And everybody’s running from a new tsunami
Don’t we got a lot of work to do today?
Don’t we got a lot of mouths to feed?
Don’t you got a lot of friends to make today?
Gonna wait the day out, so give me strength today now, yea
Gonna wait the day out, so give me strength today now, yea
Give me strength today now, yea

In Control

I didn’t mean to run, but you were the last one
I didn’t mean to hide, but you left at the first light
And you’re all I know but you’re not in control
You’re all I know
They let you off the hook cause you played by the book
You stumble and you fall and we watched it all
And you’re all I know but you’re not in control
You’re all I know
And you’re all I know but you’re not in control
You’re all I know
