Another effortless 80-minute cut Another bad, bad burning Down in my gut Big men in hoods and coats with scissors Darkness underneath, light shining through their eyeholes Rotted yellow teeth They've come for its soul And roll The next reel Don't let anybody tell you how to feel Stories in my head Blur out in fractured pieces Light pink envelopes With very subtle creases When I close my eyes, it all fades into focus Thank god that you don't know The pain that comes with clarity Unimaginable, the haunted frames appear to me And see my Last reel Don't let anybody tell me (you) how to feel

Last Girl 02:16
The angles tell us how to feel My blood runs hot for that last reveal Make me hurt, make me scared Make me wish I'd never seen this place Make me wish I'd never dared Take every left turn Make every mistake Some people can't learn Some rocks just sink in the lake And I can't hear you over the sound Of the demons telling me just what I'm good for I will not bend and I will not break I am an unrelenting force The angles keep you far away The doors all lock and I can't be afraid Let me squint, let me take aim Let me grab the knife from off the shelf Let it poke into your brain Bet on the loser Let the sun rise Someone could bruise her Someone is asking to die And I can't hear you over the sound Of the demons telling me just what I'm good for I will not bend and I will not break I am an unrelenting force

The sun always rises in the south And it sets there too So it never shines on you Turn on the faucet, and let it run God help us escape here But 'til then let's have some fun Mansions built too Big to fail The bleeding edge of comfort In this perfect public jail My lenses are all built to last And if one of them cracks We'll get a new one fast You are the star shining in the dark Don't look me in the eye Don't think and don't try Don't make me tell you lies Don't let me hear you sigh Don't ever lose your spark Who needs an audience When you've got a stage And why look for the key When it's so nice in the cage

Last Year 03:10
Matches in a maze Your sideways glance silencing the haze And the red, or however the red looks in greyscale Your face is so pale Don't tell me what I don't remember I was in Munich last December And you were under Where the shadows went Rows upon rows of those Things that move only when my eyes close And the statues, or whatever you call the ones with masks I shouldn't ask Don't tell me what I don't remember I was in Munich last December And you were under Where the shadows went I will leave this place and head for the sea I will make it through last year If it kills me Blink your eyes if you think I'm fine Do it twice if you realize I can't blink mine And the reason I'm leaving here with you Is that I'm scared, and I'm all out of flares Don't tell me what I don't remember I was in Munich last December And you were under Where the shadows went But now you're up here And now I'm shaking And now you're staring And now I'm breaking Any place but here Any time but last year

Lob some spit at the window Watch it drip down the pane It's only the guilty who concern themselves With clearing their names You bring tidings of hope, false tidings When you come here There's two friends who did me wrong that you're protecting It's so clear That when you speak it's those two Who speak through you Who'll speak for me? The burning and the electricity Sun goes down San Francisco Friends are hard to find Chew them up just as quick as I can catch them Try to clear my mind Remember hours at the table Gauze white light easing through If there's one thing I'm not gonna do tonight It's die for you And when you speak it's those two Who speak through you Who'll speak for me? The burning and the electricity
