Stacked Actors

Oh, mirror, mirror, you're coming in clear
I'm finally somewhere in between
I'm impressed, what a beautiful chest
I never meant to make a big scene

Will you resign to the latest design
You look so messy when you dress up in dreams
One more for hire, a wonderful liar
I think it's time we all should come clean

Stacked, dead actors, stacked to the rafters
Line up the bastards, all I want is the truth

Hey, hey now, can you fake it
Can you make it look like we want
Hey, hey now, can you take it
And we cry when they all die blonde

God bless, what a sensitive mess
Yeah, but things aren't always what they seem
Your teary eyes, your famous disguise
Never knowing who to believe
See through, yeah, but what do you do
When you're just another aging Drag Queen
Stacked, dead actors, stacked to the rafters
Line up the bastards, all I want is the truth

Hey, hey now, can you fake it
Can you make it look like we want
Hey, hey now, can you take it
And we cry when they all die blonde

Stacked, dead actors, stacked to the rafters
Line up all the bastards, all I want is the truth
Stacked, dead actors, stacked to the rafters
Line up all the bastards, we cry when they all die blonde

Hey, hey now, can you fake it
Can you make it look like we want
Hey, hey now, can you take it
And we cry when they all die blonde

Stacked, dead actors, stacked to the rafters
Line up the all the bastards, all I want is the truth
Stacked, dead actors, stacked to the rafters
Line up the bastards, we cry when they all die blonde

Breakout

You make me dizzy, running circles in my head
One of these days, I'll chase you down
Well, look who's going crazy now
We're face to face, my friend
Better get out, better get out

You know you make me break out
You make me break out
I don't want to look like that
I don't want to look like that
You know you make me break out
You make me break out
I don't want to look like that
I don't want to look like that
You know you make me break out

You can see this on my face
It's all for you
The more and more I take
I break right through
And therapy still scares me
Putting me on my back again

I may be crazy, little frayed around the ends
One of these days, I'll phase you out
Burn it in the blast off
Burn it in the blast off, watching me crawl away
Try to get out, try to get out

You know you make me break out
You make me break out
I don't want to look like that
I don't want to look like that
You know you make me break out
You make me break out
I don't want to look like that
I don't want to look like that, yeah, yeah
I don't want to look like that

Break out
Break out
Break out
Break out
Go, go, go

You know you make me break out
You make me break out
I don't want to look like that
I don't want to look like that
You know you make me break out
You make me break out
I don't want to look like that
I don't want to look like that, yeah yeah
I don't want to look like that
I don't want to look like that
You know you make me break out
You make me break out
You make me break out
Yeah

Learn To Fly

Run and tell all of the angels
This could take all night
Think I need a devil to help me get things right
Hook me up a new evolution
Cause this one is a lie
We sat around laughing and watched the last one die, die, die

Yeah, I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking cause I'm tired of lying
Make my way back home when I learn to fly

I think I'm done nursing the patients
It could wait one night
I'll give it all away if you give me one last try, try, try
We'll live happily ever trapped, if you just save my life
Run and tell the angels that everything's alright

I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking cause I'm tired of trying
Make my way back home when I learn to fly
Make my way back home when I learn to fly

Fly along with me I can't quite make it alone
Try to make this life my own
Fly along with me I can't quite make it alone
Try to make this life my own

I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking cause I'm tired of trying
Make my way back home when I learn to
Looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burnout bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking cause I'm tired of trying
Make my way back home when I learn to fly
Make my way back home when I learn to fly
Make my way back home when I learn to, to, to

Gimme Stiches

I can be your right of way
So we can get out of here
I'll always be the one who runs from everyone
Cause everyone's just too weird
Sink with someone tied to me
I'm making you volunteer
Another one has come and gone, they crawl along
Make them disappear

Dress me up in stitches, it's now or never
Tired of wearing black and blue
Dress me up in stitches, it's now or never
Dying to get my blood on you
Blood on you

Take another stab at me
I promise in time I'll heal
But yesterday went on and on a bit too long
I waited out on High Street
There's nothing left to find out here
Another day has come and gone, they crawl along
Wasting all these years

Dress me up in stitches, it's now or never
Tired of wearing black and blue
Dress me up in stitches, it's now or never
Dying to get my blood on you
Blood on you

How can you go on when you're murdering someone
Killing me like you do
Gimme stitches now or never
Gimme stitches now or never
Gimme stitches now or never
Blood on you
Blood on you
Blood on you
Blood on you

Blood on you
Dress me up in stitches, it's now or never
Blood on you Tired of wearing black and blue
Blood on you Dress me up in stitches, it's now or never
Blood on you Dying to get my blood on you.

How can you go on when you're murdering someone,
Killing me like you do
Gimme stitches now or never
Gimme stitches now or never
Gimme stitches now or never
Gimme stitches now or never
Blood on you
Blood on you

Generator

Lately I'm getting better
Wish I could stay sick with you
But there's too many egos left to bruise
Call it sin, you call it whatever
Eating deep inside of you
Well if it were me, it's all I'd ever do

Steal me now and forever
I'll steal something good for you
The criminal in me is no one new
'Till you find something better
When there's nothing left to use
And everything starts going down on you

I'm the Generator, firing whenever you quit
Yeah, whatever it is, you go out and it's on
Yeah, can't you hear my motored heart
You're the one that started it

Send me out on a tether
Swing it 'round, I'll spin your noose
You let it down, I'll hang around with you
Till you find someone better
When there's no one left to use
And everyone keeps going down

I'm the Generator, firing whenever you quit
Yeah, whatever it is, you go out and it's on
Yeah, can't you hear my motored heart
You're the one that started it

I'm the Generator, firing whenever you quit
Yeah, whatever it is, you go out and it's on
Yeah, can't you hear my motored heart
You're the one that started it

I'm the Generator
I'm the Generator
I'm the Generator
I'm the Generator
I'm the Generator
I'm the Generator
Yeah, can't you hear my motored heart
You're the one that started it

Aurora

You believe in something else
To relieve your emptiness
And you dream about yourself
And you bleed and breathe the air
And it's on and on and on and on and on

I just kinda died for you
You just kinda stared at me
We will always have that chance
We can do this one more time

Hell yeah, I remember Aurora
Hell yeah, I remember Aurora
All this time

Hell yeah, I remember Aurora
Take me now, we can spin the sun around
And the stars will all come out
Then we'll turn and come back down
Turn and come back down

You believe there's somewhere else
Where it's easier than this
And you see outside yourself
And you buy the hole you'll fill
And still it's on and on and on and on and on

Hell yeah, I remember Aurora
Hell yeah, I remember Aurora
All this time

Hell yeah, I remember Aurora
Take me now, we can spin the sun around
And the stars will all come out
Then we'll turn and come back down
Turn and come back down

On and on and on
Aurora wait for everyone
Wait 'till the last one's done
On and on and on
Aurora wait for everyone
Wait 'till the last one's done

Take me now, we can spin the sun around
And the stars will all come out
Then we'll turn and come back down
Turn and come back down
Turn and come back down
Turn and come back down

On and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on

Live-In Skin

Take your payroll and your lottery
There's a place I know, there's a robbery
And I swear I'll never tell
If you swear you'll never tell
And we'll all make out so well
We will all make out so well

Head on with my hate, into the lights ahead
I'm amazed that I'm still standing
And I demand that we all blend in
I'm amounted

Just the same old glitter story
From the sea floor, metamorphosis
And I can't change back for you
I will not change back for you
I must live in skin that's new
I'm a livin' skin that's new

Head on with my hate, into the lights ahead
I'm amazed that I'm still standing
And I demand that we all blend in
Head on with my hate, into the lights ahead
I'm amazed that I'm still standing
And I demand that we all blend in
I'm amounted, I'm amounted
I'm amounted, I'm amounted

Turn your insides out to the outside
Turn the outsides into the inside
Trade your outside in for the inside
Turn it around again
Turn your insides out to the outside
Turn the outsides into the inside
Trade your outside in for the inside
Turn it around again
I'm amounted, I'm amounted
I'm amounted mounted
I'm amounted mounted

And I can't change back for you
No, I can't change back for you
I'm amounted

Next Year

I'm in the sky tonight
There I can keep by your side
Watching the wide would riot and hiding out
I'll be coming home next year

Into the sun we climb
Climbing our wings will burn white
Everyone's trapped in tight we'll ride it out
I'll be coming home next year

Come on, get on, get on
Take it 'till life runs out
No one can find us now
Living with our heads underground

Into the night we shine
Lighting the way we glide by
Catch me if I get to high when I come down
I'll be coming home next year

I'm in the sky tonight
There I can keep by your side
Watching the whole world wind around and around
I'll be coming home next year

Come on, get on, get on
Take it 'till life runs out
No one can find us now
Living with our heads underground

I'll be coming home next year
I'll be coming home next year
Everything's alright up here if I come down
I'll be coming home next year

Say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye, say goodbye

I'll be coming home next year
I'll be coming home next year
Everything's alright up here if I come down
I'll be coming home next year
I'll be coming home next year
I'll be coming home next year

I'll be coming home next year
I'll be coming home next year
I'll be coming home next year
I'll be coming home next year

I'll be coming home next year
I'll be coming home next year
I'll be coming home next year
I'll be coming home next year

Headwires

Have you been headwired
Were you satisfied
Did it free the feelings in your spine
Sleeping way inside all this time

Will your meet your mind
Where the night collides
Will you greet yourself
When the sun arrives
I'll just stay behind
I've met mine

Better than a bullet being fired
Tangled in your headwires now
Better than a bullet being fired
Tangled in your headwire, headwires now

Help you feed the wires
When your head unwinds
And if our headlines become entwined
You can have all mine
I'll be fine

There's a reason why
Keeping me alive
There's a cure in me
That I wish were mine
As long as I can fight, I'll survive

Better than a bullet being fired
Tangled in your headwires now
Better than a bullet being fired
Tangled in your headwire, headwires

Stationed on the wire
One day I'll let go
Tell them all hello
Tell them all hello
Stationed on the wire
One day I'll let go
Tell them all hello
Tell them all hello, headwire

The sun is on Arlandria, the sun is on Arlandria
The sun is on Arlandria, the sun is on Arlandria
The sun is on Arlandria, the sun is on Arlandria

Ain't It The Life

Can you save me from
The borrowed cloud I'm on
All you've gotta do is try
Pray you're just getting by

Hey wait I thought you made it
How'd your bottled crown fall off
Tell me how'd you get so tired
Fade it down to the wire

Try living a lie and kicking out
The same old guise
Wasting time

So very ordinary
Wait until my bomb goes off
See the actors run and hide
Fake it all in stride

One day we all can say where we're gone
And haunt the ground we're from
Everything's so open wide
Hear within the divide

Try living a lie and kicking out
The same old guise
Wasting time

Ain't it the life, ain't it the life
Ain't it the life, got no crime
Just sail on by, sail on by
Ain't it the life, ain't it the life
Ain't it the life, got no crime
Just sail on by, sail on by, ain't it the life

Try living a lie and kicking out
The same old guise
Wasting time

Ain't it the life, ain't it the life
Ain't it the life, got no crime
Just sail on by, sail on by
Ain't it the life, ain't it the life
Ain't it the life, got no crime
Just sail on by, sail on by, ain't it the life
Ain't it the life

M.I.A.

Call and I'll answer
At home in the lost and found
You say that I'm much too proud
Someone who's taken pleasure
In breaking down

Never mind mannequins
Drunk in their hollow town
Drinking their spoils down
Cheap imitations
A revelation is now

Yeah, you won't find me, I'm going M.I.A.
Tonight I'm leaving, going M.I.A.
Getting lost in you again is better than being numb

Counting every minute
Till the feeling comes crashing down
Run when it hits the ground
I'm good at escaping,
But better at flaking out

Calling unanswered
The centre becomes blown out
Stuck in the inside now
It's fear I'm embracing
I never could face you down

Yeah, you won't find me, I'm going M.I.A.
Tonight I'm leaving, going M.I.A.
Getting lost in you again is better than being numb

Red, red, laced around your head
Cold and rescued, cold and rescued
Cold and rescued, cold and rescued

Call and I'll answer
At home in the lost and found
You say that I'm much too proud
Someone who's taken pleasure
In breaking down

Yeah, you won't find me, I'm going M.I.A.
Tonight I'm leaving, going M.I.A.
So you don't find me, I'm going M.I.A.
Tonight I'm leaving, going M.I.A.
Say goodbye to me, I'm going M.I.A.
I can find relief, I'm going M.I.A.
Getting lost in you again is better than being numb

Better than being numb, better than playing dumb
