Burn My Home 03:05
Someone should've warned me 'bout this feeling, it's so dumb. I get high but all the while I am choking on your gun I got social graces still I'm howling at your door Ya my lips were kissed so hard that night that they were blood and torn. I'm gonna get high, I'm gonna get it low I'm burning matches baby, I'm gonna burn my home Clicked my heels and on my way I followed all the rest You were patting your own back sayin man you did your best And I know it's not the first time nor the last that it will be But it can't be all that decent if you're givin it for free No it can't be all that good for you and me
2.
Piggy 02:45
The higher the piggy can fly Let's kick these old town shoes and I will die Every time that you go by Heart is bursting in a hearse and Every time the piggy cries She got a blister in her eye from Licking up your ruby lies Hide your mama, tell your father that I've got a number for you The deeper the piggy can dive There's white lines, they turn red inside and Passing moments puddle up, you just stomp in them for fun There's a man that I made up He still cries for Vietnam so We've been saving everything Can we trade our hands for wings?

Red Room 03:15
Getting dizzy in a red room Looking fine drinking perfume I live by my machine My baby he speaks for me A silent understanding She's driving kinda madly And I don't really know why He's giving her a piece of mind But it goes on and on and on and on Classic habits, I am gunning for the other side Man it's tragic I will kick it til I'm satisfied Alabama come clean I'm spitting up my dreams You give me your secret I'm not gonna keep it If loves just an alibi If loves just a free ride Call it a cheap thrill I found me a quick fill Classic habits, I am gunning for the other side Man it's tragic I will kick it til I'm satisfied Curse me madly, but I'm running for the quickest ride. Run along with me
4.
Socialites 02:51
I was sitting on my own Caught a cold from your phone call Kicking, slicked back gonna drown Gonna bloody up my evening gown that's alright, Socialites Cursing, kicked out, loved up He's so lovely but he won't ever marry me and I was begging for that ride Ready, give up and open wide and the city don't sleep when you go down that's alright, Socialites
5.
I spill blood on the piano, I got a new dress on We're hanging with the shadows At the break of dawn Look at me like a scandal We're getting dirty in the dark Talking shit about him, swimming with the sharks He thinks I don't know but I do. I spell something witchy on a bedroom wall And my death daddy shows no sign at all I crawl like a lady, I talk like a doll But I am an actress baby, it ain't my fault He thinks I don't know but I do.
6.
Reason 03:36
People need a reason, that or just play dead As evil shines, I get inside some wise and old man's head Now I see, trust me Failed to believe in me, go straight to hell As light of a sinning man unfolds This is above me Don't you ever wonder? Sleep for days and we'll sleep to dream Supposed quarrelling and a tenant that taunts me Endlessly Tales of treason, we fear the dark You give me your reason and where are we now? But don't you ever wonder? We should've stayed inside, where police don't go It's not safe inside
7.
You and I are thieves of stone and I said my piece Now I'm done, I'm done I ain't playin no two's and I ain't playin' no fours You've gone out and leave through the back door We're all being scrutinized by the sound of black solitaire You and, said I miss you I miss you Is it everything you planned? Don't cheat yourself We're all being hypnotized by the sounds of black solitaire Bind me up, tie me up Leave me for days We're falling from the sky, be it our demise Compose yourself Got me all hypnotized with your petty lies So calm yourself Leave me for days Bind me up, tie me up Leave me for days I miss you, I miss you, I miss you so calm yourself
8.
DFA 04:54
In a cruel world, it's bound to be here and I will show you what you mean here How I love their anxious faces And how it puts me in my place and ohhhh I wanna see it from the other side, the other side of me I wanna feel it and force it down, force it into me In a cruel world, it's all we needed This is awfully complicated, How we learn to laugh in the deep end Everyone seems so defeated
9.
Got Lost 03:49
Well I met crazy and his brother, we grew a love for each other Tried to hide me under covers So I burned a hole to the floor I feel settled in the fever now that I have felt it Upside down to my objection Upside down in no direction I see the liar take the wheel and it is all the same Exploding into petals on your emaciated face Catch you in the classroom Over now, thought it was a game But I'm only every second thought, every other name I feel settled in the fever now that I have felt it Upside down to my objection Upside down in no direction I see the liar take the wheel and it is all the same Is Billy still alive? I was told about him when I was only 5 In the streets of the villain, I weep simply at the mention Follow through familiar notions to catch us fucking after hours Is it cause my voice is sweet I get away with all these lies? No one knows my middle name

Loud Mouth 03:08
He said to me, you've been a loud mouth girl Girls gone and done it again Take her out to Arizona To the racetrack on her back Got her tied up in the van and He said to little red There's nothing you can do about it
