Algebra
Why can't you just
Forget about algebra
It's all about you now
And all your talk
Of logic and formula
Could never help you now
Not anymore
Cause you were always
On the run
From the darkness
In your heart
So you wear it
On the outside
Of your chest
I have taken
The liberty
To tell your ghost to go
Bribing them with
Sunlight and sympathy
They promised not to show
For a while
Cause you were always
The little boy
Who couldn't keep it
To yourself
So your heart
Is on the outside
Of your chest
At the speed of light
You moved inside my home
Nothing is alright
If you are still alone
And your heart
Is greater than
The sum of you
And everyone
But still you're always
On the run
From the poison
In your lungs
And your heart
Is on the outside
Of your chest
The same old song
Here's my prayer
I'm getting nowhere
I'm stepping up the stairs
But falling behind, oh
I'm a one-man show
That nobody knows
My body sure knows
I'm wondering why, oh
I can't go on singing this song
That the angels will not hear
The world is a hole from all that I stole
But there is still a little love in here
Few things will last, I did it too fast
But I'm learning to cry
Don't be a stepping stone
Get it all out, deliver it
Here's my weep
I'm digging too deep
I do believe in lies
I've got everything to hide, oh
I'm young, I'm old
I do what I'm told
Cut open, unfold
But there's nothing inside, oh
I can't go on singing this song
That the angels will not hear
The world is a hole from all that I stole
But there is still a little love in here
Few things will last, I did it too fast
But I'm learning to cry
Hey child, you dance too loud
Here is your limit
No, I can't go on singing this song
That the angels will not hear
The world is a hole from all that I stole
But there is still a little love in here
Few things will last, I did it too fast
But I'm learning to cry
Don't be a stepping stone
Get it all out, deliver it
Here's my plead
My never ending repeat
I'm a circular cry-baby
With no one to trust
I'm restless and mad
And anciently sad
If someone wants to kill me
Go ahead but make it fast
Rock 'N' Roll Ghost
Well you know
And you go
When I`m alone
I have no cause
To think about the shit
We used to know
Made of snow
Well you came
And you stayed
No one here
To raise a toast
Be my guest
And I will be your host
To a rock`n roll ghost
A rock`n roll ghost
Would you help me pack my bags
I might be leaving
I need some sweet assistance
While I'm stealing
Some of your time
I hope that's fine
And I've got photographs
Of all you all I'm needing
Forgiveness if I
Left you all believing
That I'm the one
Cause I feel like none
And I need something
To direct me to it
Cause I'm a frequent flyer
A notorious liar, ohh
But I can't get close enough
I never get close
I can't get close enough
I would love to tell my story
From the ending
But the story's getting thin
From heavy spending
And I need my man
And I need a fence
And I need someone to protect me
From the wench
I'm a frequent flyer
A notorious liar, ohh
But I can't get close enough
I never get close
I can't get close enough
To the ending
I can't get close enough, I, I, I
I can't get close enough
To the sun
I can't get close enough
I'm a frequent flyer
A notorious liar, ohh
But I can't get close enough
I never get close
I can't get close enough
It seems
I can buy you
A life of sanity and dignity You know it takes two
And what's the use in being a millionaire If I can't have you
I wanna buy you a home
I'll pay your friends if you're feeling alone
The pain of losing a guy like you
Is a bigger cost Than paying your dues
I can buy you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But I can't make you do what you don't
And I can hire you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But I can't make you love me I can't make you
You say I'd never go for a little
And I always need more
And you're a thousand dollar playboy That I just can't afford
But I guess you got me, oh, oh
You got me hanging around For too long
I don't wanna stop it, oh no, oh no
I bet your life that it's With me you belong
And I can buy you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But I can't make you do what you don't
And I can hire you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But I can't make you love me
I can't make you care
Well you said
She`s better off dead
You think that I might
Have heard a word
But I was much too young
And much too cool for words
Look at me now
No one here
To raise a toast
Take me by the hand
Man, raise a toast
Or the rock`n roll ghost
To a rock`n roll ghost
We don`t know
Until we`re gone
There`s no one here
To raise a toast
I look into the mirror
And I see
The rock`n roll ghost
My rock`n roll ghost
Frequent flyer
So if I can't make you love me If I can't make you care
What price can take me there
In this world
Somebody told me cash is king
I didn't mean to force you, oh no
But I bet a fortune it's With me you belong
And I can buy you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But I can't make you do what you don't
And I can hire you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But I can't make you love me
I can't make you care
I can't take you there
Anymore
Angel of sadness
Something's watching over me
There's someone in
My house that I can't see
I've asked her many times to leave
She tells me she's not evil
In my hours of confidence
When feeling real and
Worthy of my friends
When I let go of my defence
She's waiting in a corner
Angel of sadness
Leave me alone
Save me some hours
To try on my own
When the music is over
The silence is on
You know I will be yours alone
So pick me up
And carry me home
Life with her is getting hard
It's like I'm not the
Driver of my own car
I'm not the holder of my credit card
Oh Jesus, make me sober
Misery comes and lovers go
I lose myself and
Sometimes I don't know
She says I've always told you so
But I'll stay with you forever
Angel of sadness
Leave me alone
Save me some hours
To try on my own
When the music is over
The silence is on
You know I will be yours alone
So pick me up
And carry me home
Angel of sadness
Angel of grief
Save me some hours
Then please can you leave
When the music is over
The silence is on
I'll be completely on my own
But I'll work it out
And find me a home
Such A Bad Comedown
I danced for a while
And my moves
Would make you smile
Oh, I loved you then
My dear chemical lover
You veiled me in your haze
Like a puppet in your lace
Amazing disgrace
From your
Silverspoon substance
You took me away
Made Monday a Saturday
You stained me with love
And left me in dirty laundry
But I left my ground
For a minute
Your body in my veins
Your power is what remains
You know I never had
Such a bad
Bad comedown
You took me away
Made Monday a Saturday
You stained me with love
And left me in dirty laundry
But I left my ground
For a minute
My oh my
You took pride
In my fuck-up
I've been cursed
And I've been hailed
I have blown it
And I've inhaled
But I never had
Such a bad
Bad comedown
Such a bad
Bad comedown
Such a bad
Bad comedown
