Tin Can Bees

No one knows what I'm going thru
We hate where we live but love the view
No one knows why I---liquid star shot eyes
Spinning over the white marquee
One night only of tin/can/bees
Watching a mute scene---dying for the queen
Lights on the stage and it feels alright
Nobody's getting paid but it feels alright
No one knows what I'm going thru
We hate where we live but love the view
Golden photograph---who you crying too?

Sound Of The Bell

I got the fever
I got the touch
I got the light that you crave so much
With twenty dollars in the pockets of holy caulbearers
I steal glances over your shoulder
I turn around it's already over
There is a backbeat that's leaving your footwork alone
Sound of the bell is so all you can tell that I'm here
I don't know what to think maybe I best disappear
'cuz your nothing to fear
Beaded necks netted legs
Hot lights where the strikers beg
The flight of the night suspended on perching hours
I steal sparks til my hands are on fire
I burn through the hallways
I burn through the liars
Round up the (smoke rings) and hang on conductors wire
Sound of the bell is so all you can tell that I'm here
I don't know what to think maybe I best disappear
'cuz your nothing to fear

Hit the plans at the bottom of the dark
Yr still whistling while you found your dog
You might say hers and mine are outta line
Been gone for a weekend in the city
Burning all the bridges that you cross
I got the black candy blues
But its alright...alright...
RUBY. RUBY? RUBY!
It's such a sad estate to leave
Rest yr fingers on the piano keys
Yr nothing but the shoes on yr feet
But you play on...and on...and on...
RUBY. RUBY? RUBY!
Ruby dog lying in the street
Caught in the headlights
Strike it fast like a virgin flame
>>> runaway >>>
Hit the plans at the bottom of the dark
yr still whistling while you found yr dog
but its alright...alright...
RUBY. RUBY? RUBY!
Ruby dog lying in the street
Caught in the headlights
Strike it fast like a virgin flame
>>> runaway / runway >>>
White night
Black eyes
Love lies you cant hide
OoooOoooOOOooo but its alright, it's alright Ruby

Dont ask me bout the setting sun
Dont ask me why I shot the gun
Dont ask me whats the master plan
Dont ask me if I understand
Dont ask me to get on that train
Out of town in a single day
Dont ask me if I am in love
Cause feeling it is not enough
from_you_its_true
Dont ask me whats inside yr eyes
Dont ask me all the different kinds
Dont ask me why our hearts do break
Dont ask me to participate
Dont ask me why I took a chance
The reasons lie between our hands
Dont ask me why i lied to you
Because that's up for me to choose
from_you_its_true
So you've got dying fractions
Self reactions please
Take the time and
steal the liars keys
from_you_its_true

Fix + Repair

We beat sour to the wide eyed rows
Take the wheel tell the siren turn the radio
But held in his hand is a hat for a hare
A postcard tear and a pindrop stare
They drive on...
Under his arm while he snickers and steers
Over rattlesnakes when she caught in the mirror
Coiled up around her both love a deceit
Sirens chasing a madman in cold blooded heat
they drive on...
Who do you love
When there's nobody there?
To pump all yr blood
The backseats the dare
Who do you love?
When there's nobody there?
To fix +++ repair
His pockets are lined with the jewels of a thief
From her thighs it rose up to the lips where it leaves
The stolen cling tight to his words as relief
At the top of her head to prevent such a leak
But it comes__back_real___fast_____
The dust is thick and we're starting to spin
Feeling the heat and the sin on our skin
Making our way til there's nowhere to go
He said yeah yeah! yeah!!
She said no! no!! NO!!!
I guess you never learn when you crash you really burn You B.U.R.N

Caligari! yr synethesia
Seeing red but yr pockets full
Yr closing in on yr decision of fame
Yr curtain closed on yr vision of hate
Caligari!
Yr big decision
You make a fist round the merry moon
Wonders! Marvels! and Miracles!
Step right up for the somnambulist sewn up
Oh Cesare
Yr heart is waking
Carry on with yr wasted youth
On yr back over rooftops
Chase you down to the beds of salt
Oh Cesare, yr just a victim, yr not the mind of yr violent cry
Who are you now? and who will you be? yr always asleep
chasing dreams
Burning through the night
If the shadows are right
You sleep with one eye open
With yr conditions aside
Sleepwalk
Yr way
Upstairs
And hear the organ play
Hoo Hoo Hoo
Hoo Hoo Hoo
Oh Cesare just a victim
Stand in line for another night
An order was made to the blue china cups
That the doctor made head calls
And you could bet his name was Caligari!
LOUD house
SwEEt wind
Red SCREAM
Hear the organ play
Hoo Hoo Hoo
Hoo Hoo Hoo
Hoo Hoo Hoo
Hoo Hoo Hoo
