Big Mistake

1: Big Mistake

There's no sign on the gate
And there's mud on your face
Don't you think it's time we re-investigate this situation
Put some fruit on your plate

You forgotten how it started
Close your eyes
Think of all the bubbles of love we made
And you're down on your knees
It's too late
Oh don't come crawlin'
And you lie by my feet
What a big mistake
I see you fallin'

Got a buzz in my head
And my flowers are dead
Can't figure out a way to rectify this situation
Don't believe what you said

You forgotten how it started
Close your eyes
Think of all the bubbles of love we made
And you're down on your knees
It's too late
Oh don't come crawlin'
And you lie by my feet
What a big mistake
I see you fallin'

I could sting like a bee
Careful how you treat me
Baby I don't think I'll except your sorry invitation
Close the door as you leave

You forgotten how it started
Close your eyes
Think of all the bubbles of love we made
And you're down on your knees
It's too late
Oh don't come crawlin'
And you lie by my feet
What a big mistake
I see you fallin'
And you cry over me
I can't wait
I feel you stallin'
And you try to reach me
What a big mistake
I hear you callin'
And you're down on your knees
It's too late
Oh don't come crawlin'
And you lie by my feet
What a big mistake
I see you fallin'


2: Torn

I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm, he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry

Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know, seem to care what your heart is for
But I don't know him anymore
There's nothing where he used to lie
My conversation has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's fine I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn

So I guess the fortune teller's right
Should have seen just what was there
And not some holy light
Which crawled beneath my veins
And now I don't care, I had no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can touch, I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake
And I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn
Torn

There's nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's right, I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see
The perfect sky is torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I'm ashamed
Bound and broken on the floor
You're a little late
I'm already torn
Torn


3: Tomorrow Morning

Lonely
Lost every part of me
Maybe
Outstayed my company
Walking into sad scenes
Hold me tight
And say goodbye
I've seen behind tomorrow's sky
You'll be my missing alibi
Pull me over backwards
Turn around
And change my mind
Cos I've been thinking
About our world tonight
Slowly sinking
Into my appetite
Tomorrow morning
Are you a friend of mine
I swear you've left me open
Nowhere to hide this moment
Overcrowded daydreams
We are lost
Or so it seems
Cos I've been thinking
About our world tonight
Slowly sinking
Into my appetite
Tomorrow morning
Are you a friend of mine
Cos I've been thinking
About our world tonight
Slowly sinking
Into my appetite
Tomorrow morning
Are you a friend of mine


4: Something Better

I won't say anything
I'm hiding in the pink
If I move will I break the spell
Or am I boring you
I can't feel anything
I'll think whatever you think
You took me riding on the big wheel
So I guess i'm happy now
And i'll stay with you
And i'll lay with you
And i'll always be there
Nothing will go wrong
Til something better comes along
So now you've swallowed me
Come and finish off the rest of me
We'll build a house with cactus lights
Spend perfect days and sleepless nights
Whatever
Whatever
And i'll stay with you
And i'll lay with you
And i'll always be there
Nothing will go wrong
Til something better comes along
And i've lost my fingerprints
And i've lost my sixth sense
But you just don't feel a thing
When the needle's going in
And i'll stay with you
And i'll lay with you
And i'll always be there
Won't go nowhere
And i'll stay with you
Til something better comes along
And i'll lay with you
Til something better comes along
And I will stay
And I will lay with you
Til something better comes along
Til something better comes along
Til something better comes along
Til something better comes along
So now you've swallowed me
Come and finish off the rest of me


5: I've Been Watching You I've Been Watching You

When you lose
Slaps your face
Says your a pain is a state of grace
Mirror cracks
Image bleeds
He'll touch your desires
But not your needs
I stand at an open window
I see everything there is to see
I-I-I i've been watching you
Isn't it true the fool keeps taking you down down
Taking you
I-I-I i've been watching you
Isn't it true the world keeps taking you down down
Taking you
Party ends
On the floor
Hear a voice
Behind the door In the dark
You play his games
Forget yourself
Forget your name
I stand at an open window
I see everything there is to see
I-I-I i've been watching you
Isn't it true the fool keeps taking you down down
Taking you
I-I-I i've been watching you
Isn't it true the world keeps taking you down down
Taking you
So there you are all dressed in black
Walk away and don't look back
But if you must then cast a stone
The light is on but there's nothing and no one home
Cos i've been watching you
Isn't it true the fool keeps taking you down down
TaIking you
I-I I've been watching you
Isn't it true the world keeps taking you down down
Taking you
I said I i've been watching you
Isn't it true the fool keeps taking you down down
Taking you
I-I-I I've been watching you
Isn't true the world keeps taking you down down
Taking you down
