Apocalypse on my Mind In an apocalyptic state of mind You took too much of what was mine X2 But nobody knows So, onward goes Beautiful reminders They operate slow Just the tiniest flowers On the side of the road It’s all greed, greed, greed Gotta get you what you need Then one day it’s wide, wide road Where you weep, weep, weep Beautiful reminders They operate slow In an apocalyptic state of mind The pain was too much to bare You take too much and it’s disaster Boy, have I been there It’s all greed, greed, greed Gotta get you what you need Then one day it’s wide, wide road Where you weep, weep, weep Beautiful reminders They operate slow While you’re driving nails Through pure driven snow And clearing the forest With banks of my blood You cannot intake love

Persistent Hum of Desire I was just go, go, go All on my own, own, own Self-delusional Holding onto you All of my virtues Stuck in a pinwheel Dead leaves were rolling Around my feet So I leaned into you You looked into me I worked my hands to the bone for you All you ever did was swallow me Leave me on the sidewalk bleeding Till you’re done feeding

I’m Always Losing Myself (In Someone Else) Im always losing myself in someone else X2 I never hold the way I see you do I lost my compass again, does that threaten you? (cause) Im always losing myself in someone else X2 Maybe yours is coming for me now I got mysteries you could figure out Im always losing myself in someone else X2 I lost my compass again, does that threaten you? Im always losing myself in someone else oh coocoon oh coocoon I cannot leave my room Im afraid of the voices that follow me around in my head, on the street, nearly everyone I meet wants their fame, wants it now, wants a dollar X2 (oh coocoon oh coocoon I cannot leave my room) Im always losing myself in someone else X2

Find My Hand In The Dark i was tossing and turning all night waiting for your love it was sleep like the husk in my heart was confined to my lungs everybody takes it as what it is straight off the street in the dark weeds but i was stuck without a heart, i was naked in the dark i know everybody blamed me, when you said I did I was opening the doors, i was banging on the floors trying to find you You out looking for something? Come seek it on me you in need of something? Come seek it on me Cause I’m tossing and I’m turning and I cant sleep and I’m writhing in this coocoon that I built around me and I’m lusting, and I’m lusting, and I’m lusting find my hand in the dark, find my hand in the dark, find my hand in the dark, find my hand in the dark i was tossing and turning all night waiting for your love it was sleep like the husk in my heart was confined to my lungs but i was stuck without a heart, i was naked in the dark i know everybody blamed, when you said you did I was opening the doors, i was banging on the floors trying to find you You want dark waters, I got em X2 find my hand in the dark, find my hand in the dark, find my hand in the dark, find my hand in the dark feeling you in the dark, a flame in my head, a moth in my heart feeling you in the dark, a flame in my head, a moth in my heart oh coocon oh coocoon oh coocoon come into my room

Bombyx Bombyx X9 Oh sweet home Chicago I don't know what you know But every step I start Brings me a broken heart What am I to you? Bombyx X9 30 years of making up all of the answers I’m a little drowsy, I’m a little weak what am I to you? Oh cocoon oh cocoon I cannot leave my room I’m afraid of the voices That follow me around In my head on the street Nearly everyone I meet Wants their fame, wants it now wants a dollar You’re an empire were the worms that feed on your Bombyx X9 30 years of living Deep inside of my head You are my salvation You are my relief What am I to you? Oh cocoon oh cocoon I cannot leave my room I’m afraid of the voices That follow me around In my head on the street Nearly everyone I meet Wants their fame, wants it now wants a dollar Bombyx X9 Oh sweet home Chicago The streets are all in ruin Hold me in your arms so I can finally fall asleep Bombyx X9

I’m Still In Love With You Crowded room the day I met you Couldn't tell right from wrong or where My head was in the clouds Until you said my name out-loud I floated down and offered you a chair I said this is real love What does that mean for us? You held me up to raw emotions The one thing I cannot resist You made me cry so many times It blurred the lines between our hearts Till I felt blind and old and sick I was holding out for real love To open up a door for us At the ledge of our communion Against my angels beck and call I followed love into this wide, wild world I can follow you into the dark Cause if this is real love Won’t it light the way for us? And if this is real love wont my angels work with us? Everyone said go your own way Can’t you see that something’s died? Were out of money out of luck and out of time Bu how can I? I’m still in Love with you I’m still in love with you

Maybe It’s the End Of Love down by the road way coming up on a dream I remember seein this one in the rearview like i threw it He’s gone again, I knew it till i fall in love again Oh, ill fall in love again many take the wind blown soul hold it till the sun goes down over when I said it would be i don’t really take it though cause loves a semi shaken fool i call you up again sayin maybe its the end of love Our tongues they seemed to quiver but we were never bitter for long strange problem i could never tame it though My inconsistent nature my heart, young lion heart of zionistic love you smell it coming Cut the roses as they fall in two I’m here again with you singing maybe its the end of our love maybe its the end of love
