1. OCEANS

Hold on to the thread
The currents will shift
Guide me towards you
Know something's left and we're all allowed to dream
of the next time we touch

You don't have to stray two oceans away
Waves roll in my thoughts
Hold tight the ring...
The sea will rise...
Please stand by the shore...
I will be...
I will be...
There once more


2. WHY GO

She scratches a letter
Into a wall made of stone
Maybe someday
Another child
Won't feel as alone as she does

It's been two years and counting
Since they put her in this place
She's been diagnosed
By some stupid fuck
And mommy agrees
Why go home?
Why go home?
Why go home...

She seems to be stronger
But what they want her to be is weak
She could just pretend
She could play the game
She could be another clone

Why go home?

What you taught me
Don't come visit
Put me here
Mommy dear

3. DEEP

On the edge
Windowsill
Ponders his maker
Ponders his will
To the street below
He just ain't nothin'
But he's got a great view...

On the edge
Know-nothin' town
Feelin' quite superior
The aged come
To the sky above
He just ain't nothin'
But he's got a great view...

On the edge of a
Christmas clean love
Young virgin from heaven
Visiting...
To the man above her
She just ain't nothin'...
She doesn't like the view
Doesn't like the view
Doesn't like the view...
But he sinks himself deep.

Can't touch the bottom
In too deep
Can't touch the bottom

Can't touch the bottom
In too deep
Can't touch the bottom

Can't touch the bottom
In too deep
Can't touch the bottom
Can't touch the bottom
Deep...


4. ALIVE

Son, she said
Have i got a little story for you
What you thought was your daddy
Was nothin' but a....

While you were sittin'
Home alone at age thirteen
Your real daddy was dyin'
Sorry you didn't see him
But i'm glad we talked...

I'm still alive

Oh she walks slowly
Across a young man's room
She said i'm ready...for you
I can't remember anything
To this very day
'cept blood, blood
From you know where
Now i can't see, i just stare.

I'm still alive

Is something wrong
She said
Of course there is
You're still alive
She said
Do i deserve to be
Is that the question
And if so,...if so...
Who answers?
Who answers?

I'm still alive
