All day long diamond in my hand
But you know
Sometimes I’m diving for pearls
All night on living where I stand
But you know
Sometimes I’m halfway around this world
In your arms where I should have been
But you know
I was so deaf and so blind
Me and Tchaikovski share this one thing
You know
We wish we could go back in time
Can’t you see what you mean to me?
To sell my soul would be a sin
I believe, if it makes you free,
I will say these words over and over again
Memory serves but makes me a slave
You’d think I’d left you behind
If you forget, let you remember
Let me see you one more time
All I want all of the time
You know
Is only all of everything
All I am is holding this line
So it goes
In my cage I still can sing
Can’t you see what you mean to me?
To sell my sell my soul would be a sin
I believe, if it makes you free,
I will say these words over and over again
From Grand AVE to the Tivoli
You took me out and you took me around
The very first kiss that I still miss
It happened quickly without a sound
So long ago but I still know
There’s a tiny thread so small and so fine
Darling please come around to me
One more kiss One more time
Make my circle draw the lines
Speak my words into the fire
Burn all of my offerings
Let them know my desire
Take your time move in near
Captivate me ’til I’m free
Drown me down in your waves
Even if they’re high above the trees
Can’t you see what you mean to me?
To sell my should would be a sin
I believe, if it makes you free,
I would say these words over and over again

I cannot believe I threw you away
How silly of me
What was I thinking? What was I drinking?
Was it a dream?
I am a believer in the love, love of the world
I’ve drawn up the circle
Uttered the names
Hold on tight
I’ve messaged the gods
Burned offerings
See you tonight
I am a believer in the love, love of the world
Come around
I’ve been waiting so long won’t you come around?
I’ve been far away for so many days
I wonder why
Where have you been? What have you seen?
Kissing the sky
I am a believer in the love, love of the world
You’ve made your plans castles of sand
They’re washing away
I’m made of stone I’m bringing you home
Every day
A spell upon you…

Soothsay Number one
Pull trigger on the gun
Big shadow bigger scenes
Frightening all you could be
Little words little flex
Pieces of light pieces of death
Take me in your open mouth
Let me explode inside your house
Do you listen?
Can you hear?
All the rebop
The static
And shakes
Cold heaven
Hot house fake
Do you feel it?
Do you break?
Every day in every way
Suck on my plastic
Suck on my face
Ink spot by design
Feel your fur every time
Memories of pleasure you give
Hot ticket dying to live
Crystal ball future speak
Advertise but do not seek
Episodes of living dreams
Nudity of you and me

You came around but I never came
You bit my thumb
But I never blamed
You came around and showed me
0=2
2=0
You showed me, it’s true
That 2=0
And 0=2
You showed me
Green in the gray
The blue in the blue
I am a believer in the love of the world
