Middle Digit 02:34
Turn off the television. I want a new transmission right here. Let’s form a love addiction, a glowing work of fiction, right here. I’ve got to make decisions, make up for bad conditions. I’ve got some double vision from all the long division. I’ve got your middle digit, I’ve got your middle digit right here, right here. Right on. Put up your wheels and casters, we’ve gotta move much faster, right here. I’m staring through the mirror. I count on toes and fingers, right here. I’ve got to make decisions, make up for bad conditions. I’ve got some double vision from all the long division. I’ve got your middle digit, I’ve got your middle digit, right here, right here. Right on. Look around the room. You know what I see? I see a million little eyes looking back at me. They look deep into my soul, calling me a fool. I gotta go back to school, uh huh, uh huh. But if I’m gonna beat back the Sunday blues and if I’m gonna march right back in for you, I gotta take a breath and take a step. Take a one, a two, a one, two, three. I’ve got to make decisions, make up for bad conditions. I’ve got some double vision from all the long division. I’ve got your middle digit, I’ve got your middle digit, right here, right here. Right on

Scumbag 03:28
In my head I’ve got a dirty rag, alright? Ring it dry, I’m just a filthy guy, alright? You are a scumbag. You always come back. Show your twist. I’ll never bend like this, just tonight. Junk yard kiss, you’re pressing up your lips on mine. You are a scumbag. You always come back. You always.
3.
Carousel 02:13
Running ‘round with your hair down. Whip it ‘round. They don’t care about no you. You so dark, dark as caramel. Stop to start, they don’t care about whoa you. You’ll be running after school. Spit it out if you don’t like the taste in your throat. Drip it out side to side, they think you’re uncivilized. Freaking out. Heart attack.Shake it out off your back. Spin ‘em ‘round, carousel. Fuck ‘em up, give ‘em hell.

Heal Me 02:54
Honey, I see so much ugly. I know, I know, I know, I know. Honey, I see so much ugly. I know, I know, I know, I know. Honey, I can, can be ugly. I know, I know, I know, I know. Honey, I can, can be ugly. I know, I know, I know, I know. Hold me, hear me, can you heal me?
5.
Get Out 03:43
Can’t forget the bad you did when you were just a little kid. Can’t get out. Cruising on the bedroom floor. Block the windows, lock the door. Can’t get out. We can take it all away. They will look the other way. You can disappear tonight. I will be your alibi. I’m only kind of faded. Was it right? No. Was it wrong? Were you weak? No. Were you strong? Can’t get out. Spending all your hard earned pay on some sugar meltaway. Just let it out. Get out, get out, get out. We can hide it all away. It’ll come back another day. You can make it through the night. I will sing you lullabies. I’m only kind of faded.
6.
Every wrinkle will iron out. Set the single and drop it down. Can it be alright to talk about suicide? Dancing fingers inside your mouth. Nervous tingles without a doubt. Can it be alright to talk about suicide? See the distant light and climb the roof all night. Don’t put up a fight, we can go all night.
7.
Fade Down 03:50
Let it start, the slow fade down. Dress me up, I’m your sad clown. In a way it’s on my head. Turn away while I turn red. Why don’t we have fun anymore? Why don’t we have fun?
8.
You can go outside. You will be alright. Open your heart wide. You will be alright. Darkness can’t drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that. Are we caved inside? Can you see the light? Open your ribs wide. It’ll be alright. Darkness can’t drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that. Stepping out on the road. Floating in to the coast. We have love. We have hope. You are not alone. Cover up my eyes. Take ‘em out of me. I can still see. Plugging up my ears. I can still hear. I will have no fear. Cover up my mouth. I can sing and shout over the ocean. Pounding in my chest. We are all complete when we feel the beat. "Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that." — Martin Luther King, Jr.
9.
I feel the chemicals arrive in my lungs and deep in my blood. I’m alive. I’ll be the one you need tonight, like a sharp heat straight to your heart. You can run but you won’t get away. Wherever you go, I’ll be there. We’re the same. You can lead where you want me to follow you but I won’t promise I will go, too.
