lyrics

Ghosts Can Come In On Me

Ghosts can come on in to me
I’ve got plenty of space to lend them time
What was that fine mess you got us into?
Through the lights of San Francisco when we nearly died

Those City Lights they almost dragged us down:
Rack near the Panhandle Shoulder,
Catching drippings in a Champagne sink you know
You're way out of time, I think
Now you're living it up, living lone
And turning into 'The Light That's Always On'

True roses have their thorns
And all love is pain
The Jack's the diamond mine
And your bullets always find the brain

True roses have their thorns
And all love is pain
The Jack's the diamond mine
And your bullets always find the brain

Grand Complications now chime the hour
Glances gone are best intoned
But move when you and I are alone
What was it that we’ll never know?
You've dissapeared your into The Void
And Im trying to find that thing undone

Oh sweetheart know, you have won
That's why we all are losers
When you are gone
Jump on that ladder you crazy castaway,
Go pretend that it don’t matter,
In LA I’ll find disaster

True roses have their thorns
And all love is pain
The Jack's the diamond mine
And your bullets always find the brain

True roses have their thorns
And all love is pain
The Jack's the diamond mine
And your bullets always find the brain

True roses have their thorns
And all love is pain
The Jack's the diamond mine
And your bullets always find the brain

True roses have their thorns
And all love is pain
The Jack's the diamond mine
And your bullets always find the brain

The Killing Words London

My mind is an ashtray
Filled with coins-
But an ashtray nonetheless
Dreams of avarice, dreams
of returning to the fold. Dreams
of St. Francis of Assisi- out there all alone
Naked within the wilderness,
vision well-sprung bittersweet
bearing down on the bottom of the barrel-
But dreams of avarice nonetheless. ... more
