I'm Just A Jealous Guy



I was dreamin of the past.
And my heart was beating fast.
I began to lose control...I began to lose control.
I didn't mean to hurt you.
I'm sorry that I made you cry.
I didn't wanna hurt you.
I'm just a jealous guy.

I was feeling insecure.
You might not love me anymore.
I was shivering inside...I was shivering inside.
I didn't mean to hurt you.
I'm sorry that I made you cry.
I didn't wanna hurt you.
I'm just a jealous guy.

I was trying to catch your eye.
I thought that you were trying to hide
I was swallowed in my pain..I was swallowing my pain.
I didnt mean to hurt you.
I'm sorry that I made you cry.
I didnt wanna hurt you.
I'm just a jealous guy.

Steady as she goes on with life does she think of me at all?




Steady as she goes on with life
Does she think of me at all?
I feel like I'm breaking
As she goes on with life
As she was walking down a hall
Jesus Christ, I'm shaking
As something shakes before it falls

Why Is Everybody Looking At Me



Winter weather is not my soul But the biding for spring... 
Why's everybody looking at me Like there's something fundamentally wrong 
Like I'm a southern bird That stayed north too long 
Winter exposes the nest Then I'm gone

I like to dream about what could have been.

A few weeks ago we did a few shows in Jail near the Cities of Aix les Bains and Chambéry. I got to play this lovely Mark Kozelek Song called Glenn Tipton and somehow this song, its lyrics, the cathedral style room we played in, the attention of the inmates, well it all made perfect sense.Hopefully,we'll get a small film out of that made by the inmates,pretty soon

It Feels Like I'm Touching It






We're almost there.Test Pressing sounds great,thanks to Mr Weston & Albini who have been nothing but great, and thanks to everyone who helped making or inspiring the record; hope you'll recognize yourself in these lines,as i'm aware of the fact that i'm really bad at thanking. But i mean it.

We Were Lightnings Across The Whole World



we were lightning across the whole world
we were lightnings,lightgnings,lightnings
and the guise to black cats we made a cross when our shadows met
and the guise to black cats we made a pact when our shadows passed
through sparrow black wind
a dead crow calls out to its wings
I'm getting weaker I'm getting thin
I hate how obvious I have been
I'm getting weaker,weaker,weaker
and I look down and see the whole world
and it's fading



help does not just walk up to you i could have told you that
i'm not an idiot
i could have told you that
in every serpent's eye watch you go where you go
every serpents double tongue takes a turn with your soul
if you let them ring your bell 
why wouldn't i be trying to figure it out
everyone tells you that
everyone tells you not to quit
i can't even see it to fight it
if it looks like i'm not trying i don't care what it looks like
cause i stood at the altar and everything turned white
all I heard was the sound of the world coming down around me
why wouldn't i be trying
why wouldn't i try
cause those double tongues are singing hear the wail of the choir through the fog
they're always close they're always so close always close always so close
if there's a way out it will be step by step through the black
why wouldn't i be trying to figure it out it don't mean i'm not trying if i don't make it back
i know serpents will cross universes to circle around our necks
i know hounds will cross universes to circle around our feet
i know they're close
step by step one's beside me to kill me or to guide me
why wouldn't i be trying to figure which one out

this year I think I'd rather be a relic than part of the present



It's always this year's gift
Is it ever what I wanted
Was I unhappy living in the past
Has my growth been that stunted
When to be ashamed is to be defined
And all this self awareness
The blind led by the blind
An empty conscience is sensitivity
I have to pretend I'm overcome with humility
It always comes on time
Not a second before the instant
But this year I think I'd rather be a relic
Than part of the present

In A Strange Game I Saw Myself As You Knew Me

                                                  


She got pictures on the wall,
they make me look up
From her big brass bed.
Now I'm running down the road
trying to stay up
Somewhere in her head.




When the dream came
I held my breath
with my eyes closed
I went insane,
Like a smoke ring day
When the wind blows

But you know me
And i miss you now
