Black Dress 03:46
who gives a damn about your Barcelonian binges? your man, he took you to Paris and cheated in Venice. you gotta give yourself away to live a world class rower learned it as your bedmate but he drives a Porsche and he brought some gin and a Joy Division seven-inch. you'd never miss it you gotta love someone to love yourself these one-night-stands are not enough to get you by so you search for a different type and you put yourself in situations scandalous and dangerous it's obvious that this won't get you by who gives a damn about Lord Byron, you're gonna forget him you're gonna take care of him after class and I'll miss it you gotta give yourself away to live: a French professor hiding in your closet but he has a knack for poetry and he always brings the opiates you'd never miss it you gotta love someone to love yourself these one-night-stands are not enough to get you by so you search for a different type and you put yourself in situations scandalous and dangerous it's obvious that this won't get you by i met you on the terrace wall you shed your skin you're slow to crawl to undeserving arms while I go unnoticed it's hard to catch you in a fall and hard to fall in love at all your vices grow too strong and i go unnoticed but who gives a damn about your heart?

Sick Girls 02:37
i caught you running at the mouth when you're onto me and all the friends that you got are bent on taunting me and everybody wonders why i'm a machine i'm a clean machine at least so do you offer to go down on every single one on your phone do they fall are they all aware that you're just a bored by the numbers with a mental disease it's at your expense at least... ...and i don't care if you're just having fun, cause your love is torture to everyone you touch i wonder if your father knows he raised a tease i think i'll forward every forward-thinking man your plea and maybe then you'll pretend that you're the same as me in flesh and blood at least how could i ever open up my heart when all of the girls they just use every opportunity to make light of me from across the country it's a silly state you see and i don't want to see you again in fact just stay where it fits i'm over it

Warhol 03:35
your friends are modern lazy lovers caught in their artifacts and no amount of man's compassion will ever bring them back they're under pressure and if a heart attack is not enough to say i love you i might put powder in my brain waves so i can train with them to learn the things you love thank god it was i may have strained let the vanity catch me on my way home so leave your looks at the door and douse them until i say we're under pressure "we're gonna bring andy warhol back 'cause he deserves a drink" i said "we're gonna bring andy warhol back 'cause he deserves a drink" he's under pressure and who's so high as the company judge us on our way on a thin minerva let the energy drown us while we sing we're under pressure ...and all of the faces that you've seen they make me cower from beneath
4.
Heroin 03:12
your professional life does nothing for your nervousness when you see specimen at bars that you wanna kiss and every time I see you you try to sell me heroin every time I see you you try to sell me heroin you got a trunk full of battery acid for experiments but you can never seal the deal with the one you miss and every time I see you you try to sell me heroin every time I see you you try to sell me heroin you got ten thousand dollars stashed in a hotel bed but you would rather sleep alone in your Mercedes Benz but that's ok I guess and I still with you the best but you gotta understand that I don't want your heroin every time I see you you try to sell me heroin every time I see you you try to sell me heroin

Yours is a calculated veil to hide this week’s betrayal. You’re ephemeral, your touch will poison all. You take bad vibrations and store them deep within your chest. The blood is boiling cold in your poisoned pulse. But it’s alright. I never thought that we would be alright, despite your slight of hand. It’s all fine despite your eyes against me all night. I’m just an unfamiliar thread in a mess of crimson hair. If your scarf will fall, to the sheets we’re called. And if I fall astray and follow all of the crooked daggers you own will you lead me home so I can hush my bones? I’m the Salinger to your Vonnegut. You’ve got English acrobatics when you talk, but I don’t talk. I can trust as much as your pointy shoes. You’re not manic when you’re static so you walk, but I won’t walk. It’s alright.
