Who’s that covering the road with shame? In and out the bleeding sky, the twilight of terrestrials Behold! A mirror flecked with body heat Makes a drain on your resources and the weakness is dispersed In my eyes there was a figment of the badland And it spun electric failure like a map of my contempt And my dreams were drowned by visions of the badland Burn the myths bereaved in churches you will never know Run the races on the needles of democracy The finish line, you’ll never find peace Bleed the badlands into madlands into fantasy You’ll stick it in and never find release Beckoning to meet the badlander A name-dissolving, systematic saint And you’re never going to beat the badlander Contempt for all the wisdom of restraint What’s that collecting at the door for debt? Up and down demolished stairs the mist of your involvement Look up! A ceiling stained with paraffin Drips betrayal on your candles flaming nihilist dispersed By the window was an etching of the badland And it made reverse impressions like a mask of my dissent And my cuts were opened nightly by the badland Scar cathedral walls by furnace You will never know Run the races on the needles of democracy The finish line, you’ll never find peace Bleed the badlands into madlands into fantasy You’ll stick it in and never find release Beckoning to meet the badlander A name-dissolving, systematic saint And you’re never going to beat the badlander Contempt for all the wisdom of restraint

I knew a girl (I knew a blue girl once upon a time) I knew a girl (I knew a blue girl, she was never mine) I knew a girl (I knew a blue girl once upon a time) I knew a girl (I knew a blue girl, she was never mine) I’d say that you have pretty eyes, but no one wants those pretty lies If they twist enough they might be true, those things that I would do to you I knew a girl, I knew a girl (X2) I knew a girl, she was blue ‘Cause life took what she got from you Put cyanide upon my lips Lay strychnine in between her hips I said, “Honey, honey…please don’t go Your life has been so hard, I know Just stay right here and drown with me ‘Cause you’ll never find the strength to leave Lying here I’m having fun Just tell me I’m the only one ‘Cause I get so emotional About the things I can’t control I knew a girl, I knew a girl (X2) I knew a girl, she was blue ‘Cause life took what she got from you Put cyanide upon my lips Lay strychnine in between her hips I said, “Honey, honey…please don’t go Your life has been so hard, I know Just stay right here and drown with me ‘Cause you’ll never find the strength to leave I knew a girl, she was blue The kind that I’m addicted to So I bought her strings and ceiling wax Some pills to help her head relax I said, “Honey, honey…make me smile.Use me for a little while.Just stay right here and drown with me" ‘Cause I’ll never find the strength to leave
