PRETTY
LITTLE GIRL
Alvarez
She's a pretty little
girl
So she's never alone
You see her pretty walking by
And want her for your own
In every room she's in
Every eye's on her
Memorizing every line
Every move and every curve
Of all the pretty
little girls
You know she is the queen
From all the pretty little pictures
In the pretty magazines
You tell her that you love her
But she won't know how you feel
She's as pretty as a picture
But only half as real
You gave so much
You had to know
It took so little
To hurt you so
She's learned that
a pretty girl
Can smile and get her way
It so happens that it's certain
That it happens everyday
Anything she wants she can get so easily
And a pretty little girl is all she ever has to be
You gave so much
You had to know
It took so little
You hurt you so
But you can bet
That she shed some tears for you
But I bet you that they were
A pretty little precious few
Now your eyes are
open
Can't you see just what she's done?
She's made of fool of many others
And you're just another one
From her pretty little head
To her pretty little toes
Pretty little on her mind
Precious little in her soul

JUST
PERFECT
Stevenson
It has to be time
to take you in my arms
And show you how I feel
It has to be here, it has to be now
Or this one won't be real
It has to be time to leave it all behind
What a perfect time for me to make you mine
I know I can make everything just perfect
I'm the only boy who
can make you see
That you're the only girl in the world for me
I know I can make everything just perfect
I know I can make
everything just perfect
Cause when I'm with you then everything's just perfect
You wouldn't have
to take anything
Except me with you wherever you go
I know I can make everything just perfect
So throw away the weed that you don't need
Show me all the things that I've never seen
I know I can make everything just perfect
I know I can make
everything just perfect
Cause when I'm with you then everything's just perfect
It's the perfect time
to leave it all behind
And put your life in place
Because I can replace all the drugs you take
With the smile on my face
So it's yes if I can really trust you
And it's no if I can only lust you
I know I can make everything just perfect
You can do no wrong no matter what I say
I can only make everything just perfect
I know I can make
everything just perfect
When I see you again

SEX
IN THE WAY
Stevenson
I'd like to see you
every night and day
With sex in the way
I can't see a thing
And dream about you every night and day
With sex in the way
I can't see a thing
My mind's between
your legs
My soul is lying in your bed
Now I'm not really sure
Things so evil feel so pure
I'd like to see if
I deserve your love
With sex in the way
I can't see a thing
Why must we kiss?
Each time we say goodbye
Why must we say
That three word lover's lie
I'd like to see if
you are as you seem
With sex in the way
I can't see a thing
I'd like to see if
I deserve your love
With sex in the way
I can't see a thing
I'd like to see if you are as you seem
With sex in the way
I can't see a thing

PAPER
TIGER
Alvarez
The trains all run
on time here
Got such a straight and narrow mind here
Just bad you're not a part of the picture
The things he says
are always right
The things he sees are black and white
So sorry you've got no place in his future
Paper tiger, man of
steel
The hero from the movie reel
So killer cool
So he can't feel a thing
For him, to bend is
to break
(Stubborn weakness he calls strength)
He's got it made, make no mistake
(Hide the rust beneath new paint)
His smile is his most sinister feature
Profit proves his point of view
(Talks so loud it must be true)
Doesn't want friends, doesn't need you
(And it's your world he's welcome to)
You look so small to a man of such stature

HOOIDGE
Smalley,
Alvarez
We can try to forget
We can try to walk away
But that feelings there
And it won't ever go away
Sometimes the more things change
The more they stay the same
Now the fears are gone
And I know life's O.K.
When I see you again
As life goes by
Don't look back and wonder why
You didn't see that band
Or kiss that girl and hold her hand
Go have some fun
We've only just begun
You've gotta live life now
While you got it in your hand
When I feel it again
The sky goes grey
And starts to cry
You go away
And so do I
But you
Could turn it back to blue

AUTO
WRECK
Alvarez,
Egerton
Where you going?
Do you even care?
Driven to distraction
Drives you to despair
You just spin your wheels
I recognize the panic
That your confidence conceals
It's your life
You decide
You're in control
Enjoy the ride
I hope when you begin to slide
That you know how to stop in time
Heading for a head
on
Can't you see the signs?
You can't even see the road
Just the little white lines
The needle rides on empty
You exhale the exhaust
You smile and nod your head and tell me
That you're sure you're not lost
Asleep at the wheel,
open your eyes
This is for real, this is your life
Fast as hell isn't to fast to die
Drive on by
Riding high
Its an easy life
Kiss it goodbye

#10
(WET)
Alvarez,
Smalley
I know something you
don't know
Something that you've probably guessed
I just had to let you know
Had to get it off my chest
Strictly between you and me
Is simply how it ought to be
I can't keep it secret now
There's nothing up my sleeve
I need you here with me
The last thing I would
ever do
Is try to hurt or frighten you
I know you've heard this all before
But won't you listen just once more?
The words just don't come easily
Another girl might laugh at me
I'd never need another girl if you were mine today
Do you feel the same way?
Well I could turn
And we'd both be
Alone today
It's true
But I believe in you
I won't turn away from you
I won't turn away

A
MUSE
Smalley,
Egerton
In the night, black
thoughts, alone
I sit by the bed and dream
I drink in memories
Some make me smile
Some make me scream
And the music comes out
And I feel so many things
Searching for the word
And solitude calls
me from afar
For a boy and his thoughts are never truly alone
In blackness
By the light of this
black lamp
I lie on the bed and scram
I'm drowning in memories
Some make me smile
Some make me dream
And the music comes out
And I feel so many things
Searching for the word

ALFREDO'S
ALL
Here's a message from
the boys of ALL
Not to be rude but when it comes to food
There's really only one place you can go -
Go to ALFREDOS, in Lomita
Even the Russians
go to Alfredo's
Even the Martians go to Alfredo's
My heart yearns for you Alfredo
My heart burns for you Alfredo
Romance is in the air
You'll always find us there
If my allculations
are correct
The dishwasher is a victim of much neglect
Our name is ALL and
we wrote this song
It's not very good, people say it's too long
Well listen up Alfredo, this is for you
The reason why we wrote this is to get some free food!
We want: Massive enchiladas
with rice and beans!
We want: Two beef tacos, #10 that means!
We want: Chicken tostadas, lots of beans and rice!
We want: Lots of cokes and lots of ice!
And another thing,
Alfredo -
We're ALL - we practically live here
We want you to stay open
595 hours a day
765 days a year
7 weeks a month
645 minutes an hour
1733 Pacific Coast Highway, in Lomita, 90717
534-9924 - give 'em a call
We don't speak spanish
We just speak food
Because we're ALL
And that's ALL we do
This is no place to
take a chick
The food is great but she might get sick
It's just a hole in the wall
But it's good enough for ALL!!!

ALLTHYMN
ALL
When I was young I
wallowed in none
You know none is no way to be
You must go for ALL
Go for ALL and ALL will set you free
If you continue to
wallow in none-concious and hollow
Nonetheless go for ALL and ALLness will follow
ALL, like gravity, is there ALL the time
Applehead Newton was a figment of mind
Run far and wide but you can't hide
We're ALL - we got no sense of pride!
We won't exercise undue force
Or engage in somenatious intercourse
ALLulations to the
ALL-worthy
ALL is ALL you need
It's the fifth primary colour
It's the number between zero and infinity
Some would have you settle for itself
When ALL is in your grasp
When I was young I
wallowed in none
You know none is no way to be
Now I go for ALL!
Go for ALL and ALL will set you free
Don't mistake ALL
for love or hate
It's not like any other mental state
It's the total extent, when nothing else remains
The utmost possible of possible gains
There'll be no selfishness, evil, or greed
ALL don't care about your race or creed
ALL is ALL you have to do
Cause anything else would be A.U.
I was a non entity once
Then I receive a revALLution
It made me re evALLuate my way of life
I ALLivated my outlook
Some daid I had ALLterior motives
They were right
My life started ALL over again
It's ALL up to you
But are you up to ALL?
Ye must quest ALL
Lest ye become somefull
Or something of a noneskull
Saying something that is nonesense

SUGAR
AND SPICE
Stevenson
Feel her love
Watch her lie
Fell her love
Watch her lie
Sugar and spice
And everything nice
I hate to break the
news
But you've been riding on a great big lie
I hate to break the news
But you've been riding on a great big lie
Don't be fooled -
she's not pure
But you can still take that girl
For what she's worth
Get it through your head
It will never feel the way it did
That first time
Sugar and spice -
you feel deceived
Sugar and spice - in here you believed
Sugar and spice - now it's your turn to cry
Sugar and spice - because it's all a great big lie
What are girls made
of?
Sugar ans spice
What are the made of?
Sugar and spice
That's what they say

DON
QUIXOTE
Smalley
Tilting at windmills
I'm always trying
To knock things down
Or bring 'em around
But they don't come down
They won't come around
Like society
Or that girl that I used to see
Now these are things that just don't change
But I'm tilting at windmills
All the same

SKIN
DEEP
Alvarez
I looked your way
You looked your best
Looked like a million
More or less
You were so carefully undressed
But you're just skin deep
And I'm not impressed
You're just skin deep
Just like all the rest
Because you change your mind
Like you change your clothes
Pre-fab perspective, poise and pose
In it comes and out it goes
But it's just skin deep
And that's as far as it goes
It's all done with mirrors
And painted smiles
Reflection…Obsession
The hype of style
I looked away
I could have cried
You always have me hypnotized
Sure would like to know what your like inside
But you're just skin deep
And looks can lie
You're just skin deep
So why even try?

WRONG
AGAIN
Smalley
So much dirt has been
thrown
I thought it was buried
So much time has passed
I thought it was over
So many slurs have been made
I thought it couldn't be made worse
I thought once again I could trust you
Wrong again
Now I know you'll never let go
Now I know we can't be friends again
You pray for my damnation
I pray I'll never be like you
But I won't offer you my absolution
Did you really expect me too?
This is my way of walking away
Now I close my ears to your lies
Any faith I had in you is gone
Now I know your words disguise
Wrong again
Enjoy your hate; I'll
regret my pity for you
Too bad you turned out wrong again
(back

I
HATE TO LOVE
Alvarez
Her glance can make
you short of breath
Your heart stop dead in your chest
She has what words just can't express
She gives a kiss that's cursed and says-
"I hate to love"
A word, a song, a smile, a tear
She doesn't care for me, it's clear
I'll never tell
It hurt like hell
To see her turn and disappear
I hate to love
I hate to love
She's laughing beside
someone else
And I'm alone beside myself
She's like no one else
Hung by my rope
Strung out
Hurt
Let it drop, it just won't work
Stretch my neck across the block
Heart in my hand, axe in hers, (while she's says)
"I hate to love"
I hate to love
So I do without
And die within
Once we were two
It wore too thin
It just wore too thin
I hate to love
It hurts too much
Everytime
The time is up

WISHING
WELL
Smalley
I go to that wishing
well
Stand looking down
So many thoughts cloud my brain
As I think about their lives
I think of all the things I'd do
If wishes could come true
Each time I leave
that wishing well
I hold my head up high
Because I'm not afraid to dream
I'm not afraid to cry
I think of all the things I'd do
If wishes could come true
If only there were
peace on Earth
(only wishes don't come true)
If only justice walked in blue
(only wishes don't come true)
If only everybody cared
(only wishes don't come true)
If only we could work together
If only we could never say never…
I think of all the things I'd do
If wishes could come true
Each time I leave
that wishing well
I hold my head up high
I've got a thousand wishes
And I'm not afraid to try
I think of all the things I'd do
If wishes could come true
I tossed a penny in
the well
A useless gesture, just as well
I watched it fall
A penny for your thoughts -
Do you care at all?
I think of all the
things I'd do
If wishes could come true

POSTAGE
Stevenson
I want to forget
The day we met
And the way I felt inside
I'm just a perfect failure
And all my plans gone wrong again
I'll never replace
you
But you are sick
And I know there's no cure
So much to hate
But I hate to see you go
Without a fighting chance
I'll never replace
you
But you are sick
And I know there's no cure
It doesn't matter
what I call you
As long as I call you
So I won't call you anything
Or you'll always have me
In the palm of your hand
So right now I forget you
Can you do the same for me?
You never tell the
truth
But I can't call you a liar
You're never faithful
But I can't call you anything
It doesn't matter
what I call you
As long as I call you
It doesn't matter what I say
If I'm talking about you
I can't call you anything
Or you'll always have me in the palm of your hand

DAVEAGE
Smalley
There must be something
that you don't understand
About me -
Because I can't believe all the things that you say,
And they you want to stay
Well count me out of your plans
And you know that hurts me, man
I guess that all I have today
Is a memory of you yesterday
Well I just can't believe
No I just can't believe
The things you said to me today
That couldn't have
been you I saw
That must have been another girl
It's true that you look the same
But you're acting so different
'Cause you're playing a whole new game
With those new friends of yours
The ones that you met last week
I hope that they prove to be
All the images they wanted you to see
Well I won't stick around
And pick you off the ground
When things come crashing down
Now you're walking
on a ledge
Don't walk with me
And now you've lost your edge
Don't talk to me
'Cause I just can't believe
No I just can't believe
The things you said today

FOOL
Alvarez
I sent you a valentine.
I'm afraid it won't get there till June
Somehow I lost track of time, but you know I'm a fool for you
I send a bouquet of
roses, the kind that you're allergic to
You know that I don't know better, you know I'm a fool for you
Head over heels, banana
peels, it's funny how you make me feel
Like of love sick slapstick tragedy - would you like to
Fool around with me?
I'd fall of the highest
mountain, drown in the deepest river too
Catch a cold in the hottest desert, you know I'm a fool for you
I would sing outside
your window if I could only hold a tune
I suck so hold it against me. You know I'm a fool for you
The real world seems
so mean to me that I can't take it seriously
But I love your laugh and I hope you see that I just might be the
Fool you need
Every single time I'm with you something's wrong with what I do
Don't get mad it's like I told you I am just a fool for you

CHECK
ONE
Stevenson
Lets not and say we
did.
Then, lie and talk about the old days.
We were just as boring, but not as ugly.
Check one
Yes or no
Life is a mistake until you fill in the blank.
What not to see, what
not to do, where not to go
Quit quitting. Do anything, even if it's wrong.
Who cares why? Why the hell not?
Check one
Yes or no
Life is a mistake until you fill in the blank
Zip, zilch, zero,
jack, squat, none, nil, nada, nope
Anything
Everything
Not nothing
Check one yes or no
Life is a mistake until you fill in the blank.

SCARY
SAD
Stevenson
All in my mind but
there's no shaking
Scary, sad things out of my mind
Always on time, but there's no time to
Bring the scary, sad girl back to life
None in her heart, some of the things
She did seemed almost nice
I can't stop the blush when things aren't right
But I'm to scary, sad to cry
Feel it so strong
but she's done it so wrong
All those scary, sad things; scary sad things
Every time she slit
her wrists I wish she hit instead of missed
Every secret family crime, all my love a waste of time
Every doctor, every
shrink, every bloody bathroom sink
All the filth we tried to hide, just a face I needed to be beside
Scary, sad girl leave
my happy lone world
All those scary, sad things are what any love brings
Every girl that I
ever hated was just a monster that I created
Maybe if I close my eyes real tight then the scary, sad
Things will go away and I'll quit living in yesterday
I'll just smile and laugh at all the scary, sad
Things you put me through
None of the doctors
could find a cure
Just a scary, sad girl in a scary, sad world
None of the shrinks could make her think
About anyone else but her
I want to go home, I want my mom to make
The bad things go away
I want to forget I could ever let any
Scary, sad girl treat me that way
Feel it so strong,
but she's done it so wrong
All those scary, sad things; scary, sad things
Truth comes out in
dreams at night
Cause she's done it so right
All those scary, sad things; scary sad things

MAN-O-STEEL
Lombardo
If I ever get out
of this hole that I'm in
I'll take a stand. I'll be a man of steel.
Too many mistakes,
not enough breaks
In my life for one man to stand
I will overcome my
fears, and I'll be a strong as I appear.
I'll be a man of steel. I am really REALLY real.

BOX
Reynolds
I live in a box. I
live on a one way street, but I don't mind.
'Cause I live alone. Nobody has to share my home.
And if I could choose I might pick a bigger box
But that's all I'd change, until I get a credit card
My home on the range is underneath my black hat
Until I wake up
I will not be watching
you so you should not be watching me
I've got what I need.
I've got a car that doesn't work.
I've got blood to bleed. I've got a bar of soap. I've got
shampoo too
So I look like me but I smell like you.
I won the Nobel Prize. I made a thinner dime.
You know I'll get my act together when I find the time
But right now I think that living is a place to lie down.
You see I rule the dirt, so I'm the king of this town.
I live in the dark.
I live in the silence, and I can say
That I see and hear how much more than the average bear
And if I could choose I might pick a darker void
But that's all I'd change, until I get a bigger club
My home on the range is somewhere in the closet,
Until I wake up.
I will not be watching
you so you should not be watching me
So here's what we've
got. You tell me what I am.
I'll tell you what I am not. You tell me what I'm not.
I'll tell you what I am. We'll both scratch our heads
Like we give a damn. Please tell me who comes out ahead
Was it me or you? Was it me or you? (probably you)
I live in my skull.
I'm under my eyelids. You can't touch me.
'Cause I'm fast asleep. You wouldn't like the friends I keep.
And I could choose I might pick a larger head
But that's all I'd change, until I get a safe way out.
My home on the range is right behind my eyeballs.
And don't you dare wake me up.

COPPING
Z'S
Alvarez, Egerton
I get up in the morning
But mostly in the afternoon
The sun gets up too early
The moon goes down too soon
What can I expect
from the day ahead?
Maybe I'll just sleep instead, no escaping it
Sunrise, who owns
your time?
9-5 for life
What can I expect
from the years ahead?
I get up in the morning
But mostly in the afternoon
The sun gets up to early
The moon goes down to soon
If you would go away.
I could sleep all day
But up is where I have to get, no escaping it.

HOT
ROD LINCOLN
Ryan,
Stevenson
My pappy said "Son
your gonna drive me to drinkin'
If you don't stop driving that hot rod Lincoln"
Have you heard the
story of the hot rod race
Where the Fords and the Lincolns were setting the pace?
Well that story is true cause I'm here to say
I was driving that model A.
It's got Lincoln motor
and its really souped up
And that model A body makes it look like a pup
It's got eight cylinders, uses them all
It's got overdrive, just won't stall
It's got a four barrel
carb, and dual exhaust
With four, eleven gears you can really get lost.
It's got safety tubes, but I ain't scared
Breaks are good, tires fair
Pulling out of San
Pedro late one night
With the moon and the stars just shining bright
We was headed up grapevine Hill
Passing cars like they was standing still
All of a sudden, in
the wink of an eye
A Cadillac sedan passed us by
I said "Boys this ones marked for me"
But by then the tail lights was all you could see
Now the fellas rid
me for being behind
So I thought I'd let that Lincoln unwind
Took my foot of the gas and man alive
I shoved it on down into over drive
Wound it up to 110
My speedometer said I hit top end
My foot was glued like lead to the floor
And that's all there is, and there ain't no more
Now the boys all thought
that I'd lost my sense
Those telephone poles were like a picket fence
They said "Slow down, I see spots!"
The lines on the road just looked like dots
Took a corner, side
swiped a truck
Crossed my fingers just for luck
My fenders was clicking the guard rail post
The guy beside me was white as a ghost
We had smoke coming
from out of the back
When I started to gain on that Cadillac
I knew I could catch him, I thought I could pass
But don't you know by then we'd be low on gas
I had flames coming
from out of the side
Feel the tension, man what a ride
I said "Look out boys, I've got a license to fly"
And that Caddy pulled over and let us by
All of the sudden
she started knocking
Down in the dips she started rocking
I looked in the mirror. Red lights were blinking
The cops was after my Hot Rod Lincoln - Damn
The arrested me and
they put me in jail
Called my pappy to throw my bail
And he said "Son, you're going to drive me to drinkin'
If you don't stop driving that Hot Rod Lincoln"

SHE'S
MY EX
Stevenson
She's my ex. I
can't cross her from my memory
She meant everything to me she meant every word she said
When she said, "I'll never love again. Be my ex until the end."
And I know I'll never feel that way again
She's just my ex
She's my ex. She marks the spot where I'm the weakest one
I can't expect she'll change her ways; can't accept the things she's done
She's just my ex. Nothing more nothing less but she'll always be
my ex
She's my ex. Don't cross her path she still belongs to me
She'll be my ex till I say when till I get her back again
'Cause I know I'll never love again. Never need another friend
And I know I'll never feel this way again
She's my ex. She'll cross my mind a thousand times today
Still have a million things to say, guess I'm better off this way
Cause I know she'll never love again. She
'll be my ex until
the end
And I know I'll never feel this way again
She's just my ex. Nothing more nothing less but she's still my ex
And I could never kiss that face goodbye
But I could never stop to wonder why
She looks so pretty, she looks so pretty
And I know I'll never feel this way again
She's just my ex

BUBBLE
GUM
Alvarez
Warm, and sweet and
soft and pink
Or so I was led to believe
The good things went from bad to worst
Every bubble has to burst
It seemed so sweet
before, but not anymore
Just chewed me up and spit me out like bubblegum
Cold and bitter, hard
and grey
The whole world seems to be that way
Its no surprise. Its only life.
It makes me want to hide inside
It used to make me cry, but now I'm just to numb
What seemed so sweet
before, means nothing anymore
Just chewed me up and spit me out like bubblegum
Small minds firing
words that freeze
Conspire to drive me to my knees
Fine. I know that I can find
Courage burning deep inside
Fire to keep me warm for when the winter comes
It just so bad before,
but never anymore
I'll never be used up like that by anyone
Never be used up like bubblegum
It seemed so sweet
before.

MARY
Reynolds
If you talk to Mary
please don't look at me
Cause she's never seen me before
Don't call attention to the man outside of me
Cause she can cut my head off with the blinking of her eye
And I'm not supposed to be here and I'm too young to die
See, she carries my confusion in the pocket of her jeans
I go bouncing like a pinball in between extremes
I'm not surprised,
this happens all the time
And my hand lights her cigarette inside my mind
And she's never seen me before
So if you talk to
Mary please don't mention me
Cause she's never seen me before
Just let me hide behind the smoke and the pleasantries
Cause I do my best work with the mannequin brigade
I just peek around the statues spitting art and foreign trade
She looks a hole right through me to a shadow on the wall
Till I'm sick of my surroundings while I'm not here at all
I'm not surprised
this happens all the time
And my hand lights her cigarette inside my mind
And she's never seen me before
Warhol monotone,
robotic talk, we're all so smart we're so perceptive
But her mouth doesn't move, except to smile to be polite
To receptive
She burns me with a glance. I look away
I'm safely cool, I'm so deceptive
I'd give my right
arm for a different situation
Convince myself I see everybody watching me
I set myself up for this stupid situation

NET
Stevenson,
Egerton
All the fun I never
had
All the love you never gave
All the brains I never used
Against womankind,
away from you
Fighting for the softest
touch
Biting for the slowest kiss
Hating waiting to be missed
I could be a romantic
kind of guy with you
Against womankind, away from you
You can laugh and
I don't care
You'd never have the guts to dare
Or the heart to be aware
Pictures sever to
hold me back
The only time the lens didn't crack
Was when I was by you
The truth is I feel better being miserable without you
Then happy with someone else
I want your friends
to bury you
I want to watch them bury you
Then I'll know that I knew you
I prefer the dead
of night
To living with a breathing lie that looks like you
And I prefer the cold of heart
To warming up to someone who reminds me of you

NO
TRAFFIC
Reynolds
You flush a fish down
a toilet and look down to
See your second hand is dead still.
You think them somehow connected but you can't be
Sure and it's just as well.
What to do next when
the shit piles up?
You can't decide. You go outside.
Stand in the moonlight drinking coffee from a paper cup.
You'd almost swear
you hear voices, but you know it's
Nothing but a noisey, guilty conscience.
You hear monotonous noises. It's that time of night
Its so predictable.
Oh what a feeling
to listen to your blood.
The way it feels when it congeals,
Like someone sucked you dry and pumped you full of rocks and mud.
Close your eyes.
No traffic, in or out.
Tired eyes
No traffic, in or out
You won't decide anything
tonight. No need to
Rush things, they'll keep until tomorrow.
Just make a fresh pot of coffee and stay up
All night and get nothing done.
Don't you hate preference?
I know you hate choice
Just hang your limbs out in the wind
And clear your throat because you don't know when you'll need your
Voice
You hope it won't
be long before you're back in
The action like a moth around a light bulb, but
Who gets to say when the switch flips and the
Light goes off and you fly away.
You could be standing
and watching city lights
But where you'll be is where you'll be
And what you do is up to you. Stand still you've got the right
Close your eyes
No traffic, in or out
Tired eyes
No traffic, in or out
I think I see the
East, I think I see the East
And as I face the East, I swear I taste the East
I've got to go back East
Where there's no traffic, in or out.

CARNAGE
Stevenson
You came clearer than
ever before
You did what no one else can
Just never follow up when I'm awake
Because I'd hurt you. You'd hurt me too.
You are a dream. This
is the longest time I've been with someone
There's no explaining, no escaping
You are for real and nothing will ever come between us
There's no need to look to deep
I'll just never go to sleep
I felt your body as
I remember
Put me to shame when I was through
I put you down inside myself
But you manage to do it. You always do
Did you know you missed
the point of dreaming
When you said you needed more and more
You ended up with less
This time I have you
with me
I pulled you out when I got up
I beat your pretty face
I will make this one real
Everything wet; pillow
with tears
Sheets with sweat. I'm tired
Do it when I'm here
