LYRICS

Vanishing: Still Lifes Are Failing



1. Lovesick

LOVESICK, LOVESICK, LOVESICK, OH!
LOVESICK IN MY HEART OH NO!
LOVESICK, LOVESICK, LOVESICK, OH!
LOVESICK IN MY HEART OH NO!
LOVESICK IN MY HEART, LOVESICK ALL ALONE
I'M NOT GONNA TAKE YOUR SHIT ANYMORE
GET OFF OF MY TIT! GET OFF OF MY TIT!
YOU'RE NOT MY BABY!

3. Paralyzed

PARALYZED!
SHE'S LAYING PRETTY IN HER
GOWN
CLUTCHING WHAT REMAINS
OF HER EGO
TERRORIZED!
SHE'S TRAPPED IN A PLASTIC
BAG
WAITING AND CRAVING FOR SOMEONE
TO WANT HER
HER EYES ROLLED INTO THE
BACK OF HER
HEAD
THE LINES OF HER FEATURES
APPLIED WITH
INCISIONS
THE TRACTORS WENT
DRAGGING RIGHT THROUGH
HER FACE
THE STRUCTURE OF BEAUTY
HAD BECOME HER
PRISON

4. Lover in hell

GOLD TRIMMED... ILLUSIONS
RUNNING... DOWN THE DRAIN
FLASHES... OF COLOR
RUNNING... DOWN THE DRAIN
AND WE AWAKE... STRIPPED OF OUR LOVE
AND WE AWAKE... STRIPPED OF OUR LOVE
AND WE AWAKE... STRIPPED OF OUR LOVE
AND WE AWAKE... STRIPPED OF OUR LOVE
I WANT TO SEE I WANT TO SEE WHAT I KNOW
I WANT TO SEE I WANT TO SEE WHAT I KNOW
I WANT TO SEE I WANT TO SEE WHAT I KNOW
I WANT TO SEE I WANT TO SEE WHAT I KNOW
I WANT TO RISE FROM THE METROPOLIS
REVEL IN RAGE
I WON'T CARE HOW CONCEITED I BECAME
AND AS I LOOK OUT MY WINDOW
SHAME ON THE STREETS AND BELOW
ALL THE CARS, THEY ARE SCREAMING
HELLO WE ARE WE ARE THE LIARS
AND WE LIE FOR THE MEN ON T.V.
HELLO WE ARE WE ARE THE LIARS
AND WE LIE FOR THE MEN ON T.V.
I WANT TO SEE I WANT TO SEE WHAT I KNOW
I WANT TO SEE I WANT TO SEE WHAT I KNOW
I WANT TO SEE I WANT TO SEE WHAT I KNOW
I WANT TO SEE I WANT TO SEE WHAT I KNOW

6. Still life

STILL LIFES ARE FAILING
TOO TIGHT THEY HOLD THEIR REINS IN
LOOK TO THE CENTER OF THE TRACKS
THEY'RE LINING UP, THE TRAIN RUNS FASTER
STILL LIFES ARE FAILING
EMACIATED RAILINGS
THEIR PRETTY SHAPES AND AIRBRUSHED SKIN
POSITIONED IN THE PLACE TO WIN
WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO BE LIKE A PICTURE
OF A PICTURE?
SO ALONE!
WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO READ LIKE THE
SCRIPTURES OF THE GLAMOURY?
NOT I...
I'D RATHER BE THE PART OF A PAINTING
BURIED BENEATH THE PLASTIC SHEEN
OF A WORLD THAT'S MADE OF PRETTY THINGS
BURIED BENEATH THE PLASTIC SHEEN
IS A WORLD THAT'S PAINTED VIOLENTLY
STILL LIFES ARE FAILING
TOO TIGHT THEY HOLD THEIR REINS IN
LOOK TO THE CENTER OF THE TRACKS
WRITTEN LINES, WRITTEN LAUGHTER
STILL LIFES ARE FAILING
EMACIATED RAILINGS
THEIR PRETTY SHAPES AND AIRBRUSHED SKIN
POSITIONED IN THE PLACE TO WIN
WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO BE LIKE THE PICTURE
IN A MAGAZINE?
SO ALONE!
WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO READ MY
DESCRIPTION OF THE GLAMOURY?
BURIED BENEATH THE PLASTIC SHEEN
OF A WORLD THAT'S MADE OF PRETTY THINGS
BURIED BENEATH THE PLASTIC SHEEN
IS A WORLD THAT'S PAINTED VIOLENTLY

8. Cuckoo spit

PASSION IS THE DESTROYER
OUR LOVE OUR LOVE IS A LIE
DIDN'T MEAN TO DESTROY EACHOTHER
DIDN'T MEAN TO SUCK YOUR LIFE OUT

9. Your image

DON'T SPEAK
DON'T FEEL
DON'T THINK
DON'T SEE
JUST BE HERE
SUCKED INTO THE SCREEN
LIES LIES LIES LIES
LIES LIES LIES LIES
LIES LIES LIES LIES
DO YOU LIKE WHAT YOU SEE?
LIES LIES LIES LIES
LIES LIES LIES LIES
LIES LIES LIES LIES
LET'S FUCK THE LIES

10. Idle eyes

WHEN YOU TAKE OFF THE DISGUISE
I'LL LOOK INTO YOUR EYES
UNTIL THEN YOU WILL NEVER SEE ME
YOU WERE POWERLESS TO SEE HONESTY
I NEVER REMEMBERED WHO TO BE
PEERING EYES! BOUQUETS OF KNIVES!
HAVE LEFT ME EMPTY EMPTY EMPTY
STARING AT YOUR SUCTIONED FACE
YOU GIVE ME NOTHING
PEERING EYES! BOUQUETS OF KNIVES!
HAVE LEFT ME EMPTY EMPTY EMPTY
STARING AT YOUR SUCTIONED FACE
YOU GIVE ME NOTHING!
I WAS LAID OUT IN THE WHITE SHEETS
I WAS A CARCASS IN A FIELD
I STOOD AND WAITED FOR THE HEAT
IT WASN'T ME IT WASN?T ME
IT WASN'T...
