I was walking along on the ocean,
I felt a fever burning up all I am,
'Cause if there's one thing that I can't stand,
It's standing next to my fellow man.
Ah-ah-ah. (x2)

It's about to break.
Oh.

For the social worker at the needle exchange.
For the self-medicated and the hard deranged.
For the lesbians at the bakery,
Saying, "Do you really hate me?"

It's about to break.
Break like a fever.

A little early in Spring for a bonfire ring
She's shivering alone.
I bumped into you somehow.
Well, you can wear
My duct-taped vest
it's a party vest
it's really all I own
everything's changing now
And I am high like a star that's flying
Cassiopeia
Everything's changing now
She said it's alright
She said no don't die alone,
There's no goodbyes.

Lightning comes and lightning goes

All I want right now is the time that we slept on the floor,
You said, "Right here and right now is all that we're livin' for."
I got the velocity when all I need now is the mass,
And, I just want you to ask.

Can you take me?
Into days I never knew?
Let's start a riot (I wanna riot)
Let's start a riot me and you, 'cause a riot's overdue.

Now these days I wonder why we holdin' back on bliss,

In this night, I need to call you but all the lines are blown.
If only you knew, how empty I feel.
But maybe then you're lonely too,
and it's tearing through you like a punctured wound.
Maybe no one knows what to do.
When we know we're alone in a temporary home.
Maybe we'll realize that's a blessing in disguise.
A blessing in disguise.

Cigarette fingers, ember stain
Incriminating notes on a paper chain.
Did you ever get the feeling that you've been cheated?
I wanna bust out, I've not been defeated.
We're all strong bones, they hold no water,
Got the whiplash smile, this gets harder.
Time has wound down and now we've been cached,
Because half measures are all half-assed, and
how did we ever end up this way,

Every moment of your life,
Is a chance to get it right.
Every moment you've been living in,
You could turn it on like a light.
And the weight of the years,
Has got me bursting into tears.
Standing here with nothing,
I stand alone inside my fears.
Like an actor reveals a deeper state.
When I tell you now for me,
It's not too late. (It's not too late.)

To tell you, baby:

No chance I could be her boyfriend
I'm trying to flip butch girls again
We could see what life pretends
And widen our circle of friends

She said:
You know I love you, but I feel so one in ten.

But life is short and dull
Categorized to the full
And til the charm is gone
Your a big girl if you wanna get it on, You will
And if you don't, You won't

She said:

Time tick tick ticks after me
My mp3 is out of juice
I wrote a song for you but whats the use
How did we get knocked so loose, knocked so loose.

Someone I swore Id never be
Who trades his dreams for security
Walks this city blindly
Lately its a little hard for me to see
Lately its a little hard for me to believe

And its all disappearing
And it all falls apart
And it seems like the ending

This dumb jam didn't mean a thing
Ecstasy, rave is king
Fake diamonds shining on a finger
And I'm bad for you
You stole my soul, or I gave it to you

I wish I was a spray can

Hey!
Where did everybody go?
Everyone I know has blown the coast and
Shiver in the wind, it shows
All I have are summer clothes
Oh it brings me down when it's wintertime in a Summer Town and

(laugh)

When will I start to learn?
Oh, yeah-eeah.
I'm bleeding in this game,
'Cause she uses boys like bandages,
But the wounds remain the same.
And, I hope you find it through this endless wandering.
I'm missing you for so long.
Oh, yeah-eeah.
You're a question mark and a scar.
And, you twist me up like a tourniquet,
'Till I don't know who we are,

Are you frightened by the weight you possess
Or is this lie just weightlessness, and
Smoggy twilight in L.A.
I cant think of one real thing to say
And you and me are walking in the canyons
She forgets that we were friends
I guess it all depends on your mood
Why cant these meds be any damn good

And she said,
Why cant you be like my water pick shower massager
A sweet reliable machine
