Ladders to Fire (flemix)

Tragedy is clean
Like a flush, like a rocket
Like a twelve chambered heart
Like that dog in the rocket
And the time that you spent from your eyes to the cooler
Lifting her skirt like a mormon hooked on junk
Like a two hour day,
Like a monkey, like a monk
And the time that you spent from your eyes to the cooler
Makes me remember
Those ladders to fire.
Stumbling again from the church to the joint
Where it's two on a tuesday and there still is no point
And the time that you spent from your eyes to the cooler
When a walk is just stumbling over pigeon toed feet
And you trail by the temple housing huge dogs in heat
And the way that they hustle from their partners to the cooler
Makes me remember
Those ladders to fire,
You're weak
Coming on strong
You're weak
Coming on strong
You're weak
Coming on strong
But you're weak
Ladders to fire
Ladders to fire
Ladders to fire
Share the dirty mattress like it's something eclectic
With the ants, with the gargles, and your god damn electric
and the time that you spent from your eyes to the cooler
Every three semi men who are whole when you're working
Give a job to the chaos and the girls that they work in
and the stained yellow nightgown tells a fable that's unending
Makes me remember
And the time that you spent from your eyes to the cooler
And the time that you spent from your eyes to the cooler
And the time that you spent from your eyes to the cooler
And the time that you spent from your eyes to the cooler
Ladders to fire,
Ladders to fire
Ladders to fire
Come home.

please let me find one honest bed
let me be knuckle deep in the sheets
i'm in a room with the lights off
please let me find another place
i could be dreaming one perfect time
let me deny all of my youth

lifting disguises, serpentine
where can i find you, you're not mine
the stings. the blows, my darling asshole, valentine
go to the city and decay
seeming so winsome, so okay
the things i know my asshole suitor, valentine
build every castle in the waste
president acceleration, you
turning it into mystified
looks like a zombie full of pride, a factory
and all those missing valentines
you're a broke man you're a rich man

Checklist (flemix)

I am here again,
Always here again
Where's all the time?
Spending it curious
Hoping that this has an ending.
Girls sell some goods
Years start to tell on her,
We fall in love by a checklist.
I am here again
Always here again
Where's all the time
soaking up everything
soak in the biblical senses
love you to death
love you- so serious
we fall in love by a checklist.
I am here again
Always here again
I am here again
Always here again

absolutely there, there, there
take your corners there, there
hey jude, i'm on my own again
i'm looking hard to find some moan again
wine for merchants, face you
open caskets, look
we're blue
hey you, i'm on my own again
hey you, i said that i'm on my own again
could we go back
going solo, hose you down
man of steel is back in town

all the red scores line the street
they complete the story of hell
they'll get used to it, you'll get used to them
we're so different when we're kneeling
not so much even when it feels wrong
and he's grinning while i'm weeping
to the side
would you carry my heart in your pocket
or would you carry my heart on your arm?
all this raining has made me feel lonely
and the virgins don't look so good
they'll get used to it
getting used by them
