Les paroles

1. FOREVER CHEMICALS

The memory drugs
Make memory snow
I think but I forget
My imagination
Doesn'tknow where to go
So it goes to sleep instead
The memory tapes
Of memory fucking
Fill me with regret
Now my memory shapes
Forgot their own names
And I can't get out of bed
Shit

My memory body
My memory skin
I wanna kiss your pretty face
The memory drugs
Are a disciple
So I can know and keep my place

And it's all good
When nothing matters
It's all good
When no one cares
It's all good
When I feel nothing
It's all good
When I'm not there

And with friends like you
Who needs enemies?
And with friends like you
Who needs enemies?
And with friends like you

2. BEAUTIFUL JAMES

Bring me back to life
Never let me go
Your troubles and your heart strife
I saw them
Take me by the hand
As we cross through battlefields
Nobody understands
'Cause there's nobody at the wheel
Beautiful James
I don't wanna wake you
Beautiful James
I don't wanna wake you
Everybody lies
One hundred times a day
The silence in your hard eyes
Is far too rare to give away
And it's exactly why I stay
Beautiful James
I don't wanna wakе you
Beautiful James
I don't wanna wake you (don't wanna wakе you)
Beautiful James (don't wanna wake you)
I don't wanna wake you (don't wanna wake you)
Beautiful James (don't wanna wake you)
I don't wanna wake you
Though I may have to
I may have to
I may have to
Beautiful James
I don't wanna wake you (don't wanna wake you)
Beautiful James (don't wanna wake you)
I don't wanna wake you (don't wanna wake you)
Beautiful James (don't wanna wake you)
I don't wanna wake you

A hug is just another way of hiding your face

4. HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN THE SKY

Darling, happy birthday
In the sky, in the sky
You were blown away
I don't know why, why?
Now I sit and wait
As days float by, bye
Darling, happy birthday
In the sky, in the sky
I want my medicine (give me my medicine)
I want my medicine (give me my medicine)
I want my medicine (give me my medicine)
Huh, huh-ah
Huh, huh-ah
Darling, happy birthday (huh, huh-ah)
In the sky (huh, huh-ah)
In the sky (huh, huh-ah)
Now I fade and fade (huh, huh-ah)
As time runs dry, dry (huh, huh-ah)

5. THE PRODIGAL

I leave this world with a glint in my eye, I've untold all of my lies
And all the joy I leave behind, I'll miss you too, love of mine
Today no tombstone, no goodbyes, my soul is full, watch it fly
When I return, prodigal son, this wounded world will be as one
Be as one
I leave this world, a hopeful song without a tear, I will prolong
My bruises healed, my scars are gone, and every beating made me strong
So please don't cry, don't think it's wrong, my soul is pure, it sings along
When I return a better me, you'll see that sorrow can set you free
Set you free
Set you free (I'll set you free)
Set you free (I'll set you free)
I leave this world to you all, the constellations will never fall
And if you're fearful, bare no mind, the sun will rise, heed your call
No open casket, no sullen wake, your will heart will mend if you break
So without greed, without pride, shout I'm alive, I am alive
I am alive
(I'll set you free) I am alive
(I'll set you free) I am alive
(I'll set you free) I am alive

6. SURROUNDED BY SPIES

I saw you jump from a burning building
Saw you jump from a burning building
I've seen your moves, like Elvis set on fire
Seen your moves, like Elvis set on fire
This search for meaning is killing me
This search for meaning is killing me
This search for meaning is killing me
This search for meaning
Ping pong ball at the back of my throat
Ping pong ball at the back of my throat
And I won't be spoken to like that
And I won't be spoken to like that
Suspicious bag on the platform
Suspicious bag on the platform
Suspicious bag on the platform
Suspicious bag on the platform
Ex-drummer's nose stuck in the past
Ex-drummer's nose stuck in the past
Found dead behind the wheel of a car
Found dead behind the wheel of a car
World leader going under the knife
World leader going under the knife
Stage four, stage two, stage three
Stage four, stage two, stage three
We go to Sweden in the back of a cab
We go to Sweden in the back of a cab
And every picture house is empty
And every picture house is empty
I gave my heart, now I want it back
Gave my heart, now I want it back
I gave my heart, now I want it back
I gave my heart, now I want it back
I am surrounded by spies
I am surrounded by spies
I am surrounded by spies
I am surrounded by spies
Dead fly on the national anthem
Dead fly on the national anthem
Dead fly on the national anthem
Dead fly on the national anthem
I see faces on the bathroom floor
I see faces on the bathroom floor
I see faces on the bathroom floor
Come on over and I'll show you more
Where are you now when I need you the most? (Shut up)
Where are you now when I need you the most? (Shut up)
Where are you now when I need you the most? (Shut up)
Where are you now when I need you the most? (Shut up)

I am surrounded by spies
I am surrounded by spies
I am surrounded by spies
I am surrounded by spies

7. TRY BETTER NEXT TIME

At the core of the earth
It's too hot to breathe
There's nothing much to eat
And everybody leaves
There's a place in the forest
Where the animals dance
Carefree and joyous
Like nobody's watching
And nobody's watching
So they laugh and they dance around mahogany trees
Completely unawares they're gonna end up as meat
And nobody's watching
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
So, you know me
Understand me
Is that what you think?
You haven't met the monster who wakes up when I drink
I was born out of time
I'm not meant to be here
With the weight of the world
And the weight of a tear
Are exactly the same
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
There's a spot in the ocean
And that's where we'll meet
Somewhere far away
Where fish can nibble at our feet
And we can grow fins
Go back in the water
Grow fins, go back in the water
Grow fins, go back in the water
Grow fins, go back in the water
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
It's a gas, it's a party
On this planet of flakes
Somebody take a picture
Before it's too late


8. SAD WHITE REGGAE

I got the man on the way
I wanna sleep on the way down
So many miles away
I used to dance in a fountain
I got the man on the way
Measure for measure
So many miles away
Drunk on a mountain
I got a message for Jane
Float on a feather
I hope the kids are okay
Now for the kicker
I'm stuck on a train
Heading for Scotland
They took my mom away
Illuminati
And I'm thin as rake
I'm no longer fleshy
I'll go to Samye Ling
See Lama Yeshe
Where the skies are grey
And the skies are cloudy
And every river flows
Back to Dundee
I won't give into the pain
I'll smile in the mirror
There's no one else to blame
Collapse into never, collapse into never
Collapse into never, collapse into never
Collapse into never, collapse into never
Collapse into never, collapse into never
Collapse into never, collapse into never
Collapse into never, collapse into never
Collapse into never, collapse into never

9. TWIN DEMONS

My monkey mind
Is drunken, bitten by a scorpion
Possessed by demons
My monkey mind
Is broken, smothered by a python
Possessed by demons
Here I go
Always crashing into walls
Think I'll soak my skin and soul
Till I can't feel at all
My monkey mind
My agitation, a slow acceleration
Possessed by demons
My monkey mind
My fixation, no exaggeration
Possessed by demons
Here I go
Always crashing into walls
Think I'll soak my skin and soul
Till I can't feel at all
My life on the line (can't feel at all)
My life on the line (can't feel at all)
My life on the line (can't feel at all)
My life on the line
My monkey mind
My devotion, catastrophe in motion
Possessed by demons
Here I go
Always crashing into walls
Think I'll soak my skin and soul
Till I can't feel at all
My life on the line (can't feel at all)
My life on the line (can't feel at all)
My life on the line (can't feel at all)
My life on the line

10. CHEMTRAILS

I'm gonna find another island
And get the hell out of here
I need a change of environment
So I can disappear
'Cause I've been visible too long
I want another life
My self-esteem is coming on
But I need a little time
I'm gonna hire me a pilot
To drop me at your door
Then I'll consult a psychiatrist
To understand what for
'Cause I've been quizzical too long
I want another life
My friends and relatives are gone
And I need a little time
no use crying when there's still a place to go
And time, time to make it so (time)
(Time) no use crying when there's still a place to go
And time, time to make it so (time)
I'm gonna find another island
Get the fuck out of here
I'm sentimental and violent
So I should disappear
'Cause I've been risible too long
I want another life
And I know I'm not the only one
Who needs a little time
no use crying when there's still a place to go
And time, time to make it so (time)
(Time) no use crying when there's still a place to go
And time, time to make it so (time)

11. THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED

Hey, hey, hey
There's no need to panic
This is just how it is
Your pulse is fast and frantic
And it feels like you'll explode
This is what you wanted
This is here and now
This is what you came for
But you leave disappointed
Cracked skin and furrowed brow
Hey, hey, hey
This is what you wanted
This is why you came
This is what you asked for
Yes, I heard you beg
And you came, then you broke it
Threw it out of the room
Flushed it, down the toilet
Even though it was your precious
The last thing to call your own
Hey, hey, hey
This is what you wanted
And you got it, now you hate it
'Cause it's a disappointment
Your expectations were way too fucking high
Now you're angry, frustrated
You've created your own special hell
Where it's Arctic and it's barren
And it's silent and it's white
Your own prison cell
Hey, hey, hey
There's no need to panic

12. WENT MISSING

I fell off the face of planet Earth
I went missing for a living
People were singing for what it's worth
When I went missing for a living
I took the subway to Humble Pie
And I went missing for a living
Too much temptation, I can't satisfy
So I went missing for a living
Can I have your attention?
Then take away the sky
Crash into me with spiders (spiders)
I was struck by a rubber band
So I went missing for a living
I got urges I don't understand
So I went missing for a living
I threw a flower into outer space
And I went missing for a living
Everybody sang Amazing Grace
When I went missing for a living
Can I have your attention?
Then take away the sky
Crash into me with spiders
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away

13. FIX YOURSELF

No way
I won't deal
Go fuck yourselves
Don't tell me how to feel
Now I'm bored
Of your caucasian Jesus
Not seen
But isn't even there
And I dream
What you could never dare
My thoughts are not who I am
I've killed, I've died
And I've tried the best I can
I run from you
Harbingers of doom
'Cause I won't be pacified
By what you're scared to lose
And I won't efface myself
So I can be like you
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Go fix yourself
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
