Catch a Fever

Too young to resign
Keep repeating I'm doing fine
The pressure to fold
Take your coffee with turpentine
Anesthesia control
Take a number and fall in line
Something to hold
Till we're back on the dole
Catch a fever to go with the cold
Fight the feeling that you're getting old
Cross your fingers and promise
You'll do as you're told, as you're told
Too soon to be late
Overslept in the bed I made
Day breaks a dream
Soak the curtain in kerosene
Strike a match and fly
Through the window, it's open wide
Something to burn
Is it diamond or coal
The moment they trade what you sold
Cut the corners and watch it unfold
Cross your fingers and promise
You'll do as you're told, do as you're told
Catch a fever to go with the cold
Fight the feeling that you're getting old
Cross your fingers and promise
You'll do as you're told, do as you're told
Cross your fingers and promise
You'll do as you're told, do as you're told

Nothing to See

No fun
Always up
When you come undone
Used or amusing
I've heard
Nothing to see
But the look won't last
When nobody knows you're a ghost
Small talk
Not much to say
But it takes all day
Can't find the content
So sure
You've been before
But it feels like more
Trouble to be so
Wide-eyed
Stuck on track, looking back
Untied
It's faded black
And nobody knows you're a ghost
All spite
Too faced to fight
But your best won't do
No light would choose you
So far
You've played the part
But the tape won't start
Sooner you'll end up
Wide-eyed
Stuck on track, looking back
Untied
Save the bind
Nobody knows you're a ghost
You're no fun
Always up
When you come undone
Used or amusing
I've heard
Nothing to see
But the look won't last
Everyone knows you're
Wide-eyed
Stuck on track, looking back
Untied
It's faded black
And nobody knows you're a ghost
Wide-eyed
Stuck on track, looking back
Untied
It's faded black
And nobody knows you're a ghostW

Midnight Language

I don't mind if I melt
I might feel more myself
Midnight language
Don't sell me out
What you wanted most
What you couldn't bare
You keep it close
But you wouldn't dare
Not again I swore
Wait a minute more
I don't break when I should
All I do to be withstood
Wear me down
Won't you please, I beg
I don't mind lonely nights
But I can't take my advice
Midnight language
I spoke too slow
What you wanted most
What you couldn't bare
You keep it close
But you wouldn't dare
Not again I swore
Wait a minute more
What you wanted most
What you couldn't bare
You keep it close
But you wouldn't dare
Not again I swore
Wait a minute more, hey

Between the Ends

Take a drag
Turn the page, I'm late
You'll wait
But you won't feel bad
If all my faith
Is worth its weight
In words that you won't hear
I'm faithless
Falling out with fate I fear
Take it slow
End it fast I know
At last
What it's like this low
If all I've made
Is worth its weight
In gold that you won't hold
I'm weightless
Colder now so I've been told
But falling out of love gets old
In between the ends
Of what you needed more and what you had
It seemed to be exactly as you'd dreamed
Until the end is all you have
No one else
Has a face like you
I'd know
I'm a monster too
Wish I could tell you
That I'm scared to keep pretending
Now I'm faceless
Crawling out a siren's cave
To fall from grace and hope I'm saved
In between the ends
Of what you needed more and what you had
It seemed to be exactly you'd dreamed
Until the end is all you have
In between the sheets
We spoke in tongues at Babette's Feast
The candles burn Virginia blend and English tea
I hope the end is all you need
