1 - The Attic and Lace
The Attic & Lace
I was infatuated with the way that she moves
Under the moonlight to undermine my mood,
Im cavalier; I thought I needed to prove myself to you
The protégé squares off against the mentor
And all is quiet in the crowded room
A scorn adorns the face of the ladies with everything to lose
A la Carte, the wine was hot
The maitre d struggles to keep the table calm
Im captivated by the way she aggravates
The seething patrons that love the temptation
Oh I neglected to say that jealousy festers inside of me
Let the conductor lead us with his magic wand of impunity (will you follow)
And let the conductor save us from the runaway freight train
Hurtling down the mountainside unbeknownst to the people jumping the ride
Will you follow?
I am searching for the facts hidden within ourselves
Oh its my hope that it would make me smarter
To prevent them from trapping me in their paradox
Their rabid traps no rusted like profanity
That you continue to scream cause you were never discreet
Just let me know when youre finished with me oh
Cause I am finished with you
I am finished with you
Let the conductor lead with his magic wand of impunity
And let the conductor save us from the runaway freight train
Let the conductor lead us (Lead us)
Let the conductor save us (Save us)

2 - Get the Gak
Get The Gak
She said that I was charismatic but I think that she was putting me on a pedestal
She said that you, you’re going to die but I hope that she was messing around
She said oh boy you’re a classic example of chivalry that disappeared over the decade
And she couldn’t peg me down oh she’d like too, I’m temperamental and ready I’m to snap
I sleep in the apartment underneath the movers and shakers
And they shake this building all night long
I listen in and try to learn
All I can about the couple upstairs
I have studied the victims and I collect all the associated paraphernalia
And I’ll act demented, torment me,
would you dare to stop me when I’m not making sense
Damn straight you know me
What’d you expect oh it was all contrived
You may as well lock me up, for good you’ll see, yeah
Damn straight you know me
It isn’t what you wanted to get no I don’t aim to please
You may as well write me off
Damn straight you know me
Well look at you and all your bravado walking over here from out of the blue
I said oh baby my backdrop shouldn’t matter, so long as it’s a beautiful view
She said she feels claustrophobic here, a little anxious bordering on concern
Take me home to bed, she practically begged, I need a lesson I never learned

3 - Vella La Vella
Vella La Vella
I've seen beauty queens with better excuses
A man on death row is more honest then you
We’re insignificant up against marvellous things
And we’re pretentious when we step in the ring
Enter the fray we were chosen we had no choice
You couldn't hide if you tried
that abrasive tone in your voice
I'll leave subtlety and will you
reminisce when you remember me
Running silent like a submarine
In the pacific during spring of 1943
Take your femme fatal to the black tie reception
With the intention of getting under her blouse
This occasion isn't all it's cracked up to be
I'll leave my memoirs in the frost on your windscreen
Don't draw your own conclusions
from all the words that I say
You couldn’t compare if you wanted the feelings you crave
I'll leave subtlety and will you
reminisce when you remember me
Running silent like a submarine
In the pacific during spring of 1943
(repeat)
And I’ll leave I’ll leave I’ll leave subtlety
And I’ll leave I’ll leave I’ll leave subtlety

4 - Under The Spotlight
Under The Spotlight
Under the spotlight we are trying to hide
Our social graces have faded away
And I am grasping at straws and bedroom doors
Too finally reveal your violence
Stand flat on your feet this time
And Ill stand flat on mine right next to you
This isn’t an anthem I’m a disaster waiting to happen
Our sins chase us like the bottom of the glass
And leave us stranded
This isn’t closure oh I know you’ve always known that
I am your sedative closer than you imagine
Under the covers you’ve been trying to cover up
your inhibitions you traded for skin
and i am singing your praise you’ll find them
(The suggestive way that you dress doesn’t work on me
anymore your lipsticks tainted were the facelift generation)
Am I more or less the same
than a lover’s true colour I tried to fake? (repeat x4)
This isn’t an anthem this isn’t closure
I am your sedative comatose for me darling (repeat)

5 - This Night In Transit
This Night, In Transit
What if I told you I could stop all the violence?
All the bickering and all the fighting
In no mans land the bar tonight
Blond or brunette whatever you like
And what if I told you I could keep you from crying?
Stop the shouting yeah I bet you’d like that
But I don’t know if you got those guts in you
To crucify me…
Don’t be fooled now, don’t lose your cool
This is room is hot with our perspiration
We move in time now, shake the foundation
Can you recall exactly what I taste like?
What if I told you I was awkward and shy?
This evening’s festivities force me to fake a smile
In no mans land the bar tonight
I’ll give you my number call whenever you like
What if I told you I got this tendency?
To lie to guys making eyes at me
But I don’t know if you got these guts in you
To stomach deceit…
May I have you attention please ladies, gentlemen
and system robots This is your captain speaking
I’m taking over this train So don’t forgot to panic
forget everything you know abandon everyone you
once loved pray to whatever god you believe in
Sit back and stay oppressed

6 - They ve Said Triage
They've Said Triage
I ploughed head first into the wedding procession
Oh I hate to tell you but the car's a wreck
The priest won't be in church today
Cause I fled the scene of the accident
I want to go incognito and never be found alive again
Maintain my composure
Let the flower girl tend to the dead
Conceive your escape from the litter of debris
Through the broken window on your hands and knees
And while you're at it you better make your peace
They've said triage, flaunt your injuries
I'm fond of the curve where the carnage was vicious
Lives were shattered and no one was spared
When you recover for the happiest day of your life
The little girl won't walk down the aisle
Conceive your escape from the litter of debris
Through the broken window on your hands and knees
And while you're at it you better make your peace
They've said triage, flaunt your injuries
Listen up (listen up) time is of the essence
In a few short minutes we're a full-blown mess
You wouldn't let the rescue attempt
Free the passengers oh they'd have to rip your gown
Conceive your escape from the litter of debris
Through the broken window on your hands and knees
And while you're at it you better make your peace
They've said triage, flaunt your injuries (repeat)

7 - I Architect The Cassette
I Architect The Cassette
You accused me of bringing you the rain
So I left for the ocean
And for the white wash of the wave
To form my very own tropical storm
Wage war on the shipping lanes
Of the South China Sea, yeah
We’re just a mutineer’s fantasy
And we can split the treasure now
(kill the captain now)
I want to smear your inside outside
Reveal your petty theft as (the) condescending swine
I want to make some sense of this mess
While I’m still flawless
And if you make it from Darwin to Singapore
Through the talons of my typhoon
With all hands aboard it would be nothing short
Of pure luck no… You force me again and again
To be more harsh then
A Boxing Day tidal wave
That devastates the region no…
I told myself I wouldn’t be sinister
Told myself what I wouldn’t be
I told myself you wouldn’t be sinister
Told myself what you wouldn’t be (repeat)
Fuck’en while I’m still
The tourist trap is now exactly that
We could watch the coastline get washed away
We are submerged we are submissive
Sanctioned from the surface where the air is ripe

8 - Witches
The first thing I noticed was how dark the sky is
Stay out of the woods
and stay off of the beaten track
Children are most likely to disappear
because they’re most reckless of us
And my top lip is numb
from grinding against the bark when I’m scared
We stay a step ahead
from her bony-leathered hands
clutching from the silhouettes
Just out of reach of her tattered fingernails
will the dawn ever prevail?
Oh we’ve come face to face
with her sunken eye sockets
and you can barely see her iris
Beneath the whites of her eyes
and the contour lines that hang beneath them
We did it with the passion of a teen
who’s fucking for the first time
With exuberance of an ex-wife
lacking affection and a lust for life
We followed through with a dedication of a juvenile
for the last time But she continues to taunt me
I’ve eluded to worse but she posses my body
I’ve stumbled upon their hideouts
with my pitchfork ready hell bent on revenge
For the affair with the faint
for the conspiracies of the bold and the brave
We tie the suspects to their stakes
only their whimpers mark the grave
Serve as our reminder when mankind
finally went crazy…
We tie the suspects to their stakes
only their whimpers mark the grave
Serve as our reminder of when mankind
finally went crazy…

9 - Spider Fingers
This is a hostage situation the innocent are blindfolded
and worth their weight in gold
Stand fast on the barricades you’ve made
we will negotiate all day
you’ll make outrageous demands
I’ll tell you i am doing the best that I can
But I am working against you
there’s sharpshooters everywhere on all the rooftops
and the roads are cordoned off
We all just want to make it out of here alive
and your just stalling your own shocking demise
We all just want to make it out of here and survive
keep my heart beating in sync this time
Reporters reporting are covering your story
and conversationalists will gossip about this (this is you)
Deprivation of humanity they’re calling you a fascist
diminishing your chance of survival
For gods sake lets be rational
for your sake lets not tango oh no
I just want to make it out of here alive
your just stalling your own shocking demise
I just want to make it out of here and survive
keep my heart beating in sync this time
These curse words linger on the end
of sentences with you slipping through my megaphone
like whispers in your direction
Are the airwaves infectious are you counting your blessings?
You’ll think oh wait was that a threat should I take him serious
This uncertain turn of events prickles my skin like needles
every nerve in my spinal chord is set to explode
We all just want to make it out of here alive
and your just stalling your own shocking demise
We all just want to make it out of here and survive
keep my heart beating in sync this time (repeat x2)
(She doesn’t need a messiah just let the
pre-dawn light decide whatever beauty
she retains she can use it to hitch a ride home
When she wakes up she’ll be disoriented
she’ll take prisoners to hold them against their will...)
Well this is you

10 - The Informant
The Informant
I’d like to bring you hope
At least I hope so
I’d like to bring you enlightenment
But only in the evening I’d call a spade exactly that
I’ll call your name something treacherous
Have I finally met a worthy adversary?
Destined to foil all my plans
I’d bring you beauty in a home invasion
And I’d show restraint when we’re face to face
Tragic with casual appeal I heard you say…
I would flourish now under your scrutiny
And have to keep my story straight for weeks
That’d be the sentence I serve I heard you say…
I’d be the guilt and the shame hung on you every day
Just like we do to those collaborators I’d be argument that goes to hell
I’d be the lover you wish that he were
I’d be the night on the town and all the sorrow you drown
I’d be the stranger that you wake up next to…
This music god it’s much too loud And drowns out the intricate parts
Of our discussion woven like a web
That you swat away the first chance you get
I’d bring you beauty in a home invasion
And I’d show restraint when we’re face to face
Tragic with casual appeal I heard you say… I would flourish now under your scrutiny
And have to keep my story straight for weeks
That’d be the sentence I serve I heard you say…
Please cut out my tongue Rid me off my spite
By inflicting grievous bodily harm to me Please persuade my conscious
To be conscious of the pain I guess I’m still in shock
I tried to talk but the words never came And I’ll be sorry for this
I’ll have to teach my eyes To hold a piercing gaze
Cause the rest of my face could never betray Why I feel this way
And If I ever get famous I will open my mouth
In a blatant display, diminish your doubt Show you that I’m blameless
How could I have said the things they said I say? They said I’d say… No.
