The past is a grotesque animal

And in its eyes you see

How completely wrong you can beHow completely wrong you can be

The sun is out, it melts the snow that fell yesterday

Makes you wonder why it bothered

I fell in love with the first cute girl that I met

Who could appreciate George Bataille

Standing at a Swedish festival discussing "Story of the Eye"

Discussing "Story of the Eye"

It′s so embarrassing to need someone like I do you

How can I explain? I need you here and not here too

How can I explain? I need you here and not here too

I'm flunking out, I′m flunking out

I'm gone, I'm just gone

But at least I author my own disaster

At least I author my own disaster

Performance breakdown, and I don′t want to hear it

I′m just not available

Things could be different, but they're not

Oh-oh-oh

Things could be different, but they′re not

The mousy girl screams, "Violence! Violence!"

The mousy girl screams, "Violence! Violence!"

She gets hysterical (ooh, ooh, ooh)

'Cause they′re both so mean (ooh, ooh, ooh)

And it's my favorite scene (ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

But the cruelty′s so predictable, (ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

It makes you sad on the stage (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Though our love project has so much potential (ooh, ooh, ooh)

But it's like we weren't made for this world (ooh, ooh, ooh)

And though I wouldn′t really want to meet someone who was

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Do I have to scream in your face? (ooh, ooh, ooh)

I′ve been dodging lamps and vegetables (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Throw it all in my face, I don't care (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Let′s just have some fun, let's tear this shit apart

Let′s tear the fucking house apart (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Let's tear our fucking bodies apart (ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Let′s just have some fun (ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Somehow you've red-rovered the gestapo circling my heart

And nothing can defeat you (ooh, ooh, ooh)

No death, no ugly world (oh, ooh, ooh)

You've lived so brightly (ooh, ooh, ooh)

You′ve altered everything (ooh, ooh, ooh)

I find myself searching for old selves

While speeding forward through the plate glass of maturing cells

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

I′ve played the unraveler (ooh, ooh, ooh)

The parhelion (ooh, ooh, ooh)

But even apocalypse is fleeting (ooh, ooh, ooh)

There's no death, no ugly world (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Sometimes I wonder (ooh, ooh, ooh)

If you′re mythologizing me like I do you (ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, if you're mythologizing me like I do you)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

We want our film to be beautiful, not realistic (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Perceive me in the radiance of terror dreams (ooh, ooh, ooh)

You can betray me (ooh, ooh, ooh) (ooh, ooh, ooh)

You can (ooh, ooh, ooh)

You can, you can betray me (ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Teach me something wonderful (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Crown my head, crowd my head with your lilting effects

Project your fears on to me (ooh, ooh, ooh)

I need to view them (ooh, ooh, ooh)

See there′s nothing to them (ooh, ooh, ooh)

I promise you there's nothing to them (ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

I′m so touched by your goodness (ooh, ooh, ooh)

You make me feel so criminal (ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

How do you keep it together? (ooh, ooh, ooh)

I'm all, all unraveled (ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

But you know, no matter where we are (ooh, ooh, ooh)

We're always touching by underground wires (ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

I′ve explored you with the detachment of an analyst (ooh, ooh, ooh)

But most nights, we′ve raided the same kingdoms (ooh, ooh, ooh)

And none of our secrets are physical (ooh, ooh, ooh)

None of our secrets are physical (ooh, ooh, ooh)

None of our secrets are physical now (ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
