GREAT BIG WHITE WORLD
In space the stars are no nearer 
They just glitter like a morgue 
And I dreamed I was a spaceman 
Burned like a moth in a flame 
And our world was so fucking gone 

But I'm not attached to you now 
Nothing heals and nothing grows 

Because it's a great big white world and we are drained of our colors 
We used to love ourselves, we used to love another 
All my stiches itch 
My prescription's low, I wish you were queen just for today 
In a world so white what else could I say? 

And hell was so cold 
All the vases are so broken 
And the roses tear our hands all open 
Mother marry miscarry 
And we pray just like insects 
The world is so ugly now 

Because it's a great big white world and we are drained of our colors 
(chorus repeat)




THE DOPE SHOW
The drugs they say make us feel so hollow 
We love in vain narcissistic and so shallow 
The cops and queers to swim you have to swallow 
Hate today there's no love for tomorrow 

We're all stars now in the dope show 

There's a lot of pretty, pretty ones 
That want to get you high 
But all the pretty, pretty ones 
Will leave you low and blow your mind 

They love you when you're on all the covers 

When you're not then they love another 

The drugs they say are made in California 
We love your face 
We'd really like to sell you 
The cops and queers make good-looking models 
I hate today 
Who will I wake up with tomorrow? 

There's a lot of pretty, pretty ones (chorus repeat)




MECHANICAL ANIMALS
We were neurophobic and perfect 
the day that we lost our souls 
machines that wished they were human 
If they cry they will rust 
And I was a hand grenade 
That never stopped exploding 
You were automatic and as hollow as the "o" in god 

I am never gonna be the one for you 
I am never gonna save the world from you 
But they'll never be good for you 
Or bad to you 
They'll never be anything 
Anything at all 

You were my mechanical bride 
You were phenobarbidoll 
A manniqueen of depression 
With the face of a dead star 
And I was a hand grenade 
That never stopped exploding 
You were automatic and as hollow as the "o" in god 

I am never gonna be the one for you (chorus repeat) 

This isn't me I'm not mechanical 
I'm just a boy playing the suicide king 




ROCK IS DEAD
All simple monkeys with alien babies 
Amphetamines for boys 
Crucifixes for ladies 
Sampled and soulless 
Worldwide and real webbed 
You sell all the living 
For more safer dead 

Anything to be loved 

Rock is deader than dead 
Shock is all in your head 
Your sex and your dope is all that were fed 
So fuck all your protests and put them to bed 

God is on the T.V. 

1,000 mothers are praying for it 
We're so full of hope 
And so full of shit 
Build a new god to medicate and to ape 
Sell us ersatz dressed up and real fake 

Anything to be loved 

Rock is deader than dead (chorus repeat) 

God is on the T.V. 




DISASSOCIATIVE 
I can tell you what they say in space 
That our earth is too grey 
But when the spirit is so digital 
The body acts this way 
That world aws killing me 
That world was killing me 
Disassociative 

The nervous systems down, the nervous systems down 

I know 

I can never get out of here 
I don't want to just float in fear 
A dead astronaut in space 

Sometimes we walk like we were shot through our heads, my love 
We write our song in space like we are already dead and gone 
Your world was killing me 
Your world was killing me 
Disassociative 
Your world was killing me 
Your world was killing me 
Disassociative 

I can never get out of here 
I don't want to just float in fear 
A dead astronaut in space 
The nervous systems down, the nervous systems down 
I know




The SPEED OF PAIN 
They slit our throats 
Like we were flowers 
And our milk has been devoured 

When you want it 
It goes away too fast 
When you hate it 
It always seems to last 
But just remember when you think you're free 
The crack inside you fucking heart is me 

(thought, not spoken): I wanna outrace the speed of pain for another day 

I wish I could sleep 
But I can't lay on my back 
Because ther's a knife 
For everyday that I've known you 

When you want it 
it goes away yoo fast 
When you hate it 
It always seems to last 
But just remember when you think you're free 
The crack inside your fucking heart is me 

(thought, not spoken): I wanna outrace the speed of pain for another day 

Lie to me, cry to me, give to me 
I would 
Lie with me, die with me, give to me 
I would 
Keep all your secrets wrapped in dead hair 
I hope at least we die holding hands for always 




POSTHUMAN
She's got eyes like Zapruder 
And a mouth like heroin 
She wants me to be perfect like Kennedy 
This isn't god, this isn't god 
God is just a statistic 
God is just a statistic 
Say "show me the dead stars 
All of them sing." 
This is a riot 
Religious and clean

God is a number you cannot count to 
You are posthuman and hardwired

She's pilgrim and pagan 
Softworn and so-cial 
In all of her dreams 
She's a saint like Jackie O

This isn't god, this isn't god 
God is just a statistic 
(chorus repeat)

Coma white: 
"All that glitters is cold, all that glitters is cold." 




I WANT TO DISAPPEAR
Look at me now I've got no religion 
Look at me now I'm so vacant 
Look at me now I was a virgin 
Look at me now grew up to be a whore 
And I want it 
I believe it 
I'm a million different things 
And not one you know

Hey and our mommies are lost now 
Hey, daddy's someone else 
Hey, we love the abuse 
Because it makes us feel like we are needed now 
But I know 
I wanna disappear

I wanna die young and sell my soul 
Use up all your drugs and make me come 
Yesterday man, I was a nihilist and now today 
I'm too fucking bored by the time I'm old enough 
I won't know anything at all

Hay, and our mommies are lost now 
(chorus repeat)




I DON'T LIKE THE DRUGS (BUT THE DRUGS LIKE ME) 
Norm life baby "we're white and oh so hetero and our sex is missionary." 
Norm life baby "we're quitters and we're sober our confessions will be televised." 

You and I are underdosed and we're ready to fall 
Raised to be stupid, taught to be nothing at all 

I don't like the drugs but the drugs like me 
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs 

Norm life baby "our god is white and unforgiving we're piss tested and we're praying." 
Norm life baby "I'm just a sample of a soul made to look just like a human being." 

Norm life baby "we're rehabbed and we're ready dor our 15 minutes of shame." 
Norm life baby "we're talkshown and we're poiting just like christians at a suicide." 

You and I are underdosed and we're ready to fall 
Raised to be stupid, taught to be nothing at all 
I don't like the drugs but the drugs like me 
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs




NEW MODEL NO. 15
I'm as fake as e wedding cake 
And I'm Vague and I know that I'm homopolitan 
Pitifully predictable 
Correctly political

I'm the new, I'm the new, new model 
I've got nothing inside 
Better in the head and in bed 
At the office 
I can suck and I smile 
New, new, new model

I can choke and diet on coke 
I'm Spun and I know 
That I'm Stoned and Rolling

Lifelike and poseable 
Hopeless and disposable

I'm the new, I'm the new, new model 
I've got nothing inside 
Better in the head and in bed 
At the office 
I can suck and I smile 
New, new, new model

Don't let them know how far you go 
Or that you use you "lovers" 
Oh look, you're like a VCR 
Stick something in to know 
Just who you are you

New, new, new model




USER FRIENDLY
Use me when you want to come 
I've bled just to have your touch 
When I'm in you I want to die 

User friendly fucking dopestar obscene 
Will you die when you're high 
You'd never die just for me 
She says, 
"I'm not in love, but I'm gonna fuck you 
'til somebody better comes along." 

Use me like I was a whore 
Relationships are such a bore 
Deleted the ones that you've fucked 

User friendly fucking dopestar obscene 
Will you die when you're high 
You'd never die just for me 
She says, 
"I'm not in love, but I'm gonna fuck you 
'til somebody better comes along." 



FUNDAMENTALLY LOATHSOME
I want to wake up in your white, white sun 
I want to wake up in your world with no pain 
But I'll just suffer in a hope to die someday 
While you are numb all of the way

When you hate it you know you can feel but 
When you love it you know it's not real 
No 
And I am resigned to this wicked fucking world 
On its way to hell 
The living are dead and 
I hope to join them too 
I know what to do and I di it well...

When you hate it you know you can feel but 
When you love it you know it's not real 
No

Shoot myself to love you 
If I loved myself I'd be shooting you




THE LAST DAY ON EARTH
Yesterday was a million years ago 
In all my past lives I played an asshole 
Now I found you, it's almost too late 
And this earth seems obliviating 
We are trembling in our crutches 
High and dead our skin is glass 
I'm so empty here without 
I crack and split my xerox hands 

I know it's the last day on earth 
We'll be together while the planet dies 
I know it's the last day on earth 
We'll never say goodbye 

The dogs slaughter each other softly 
Love burns it's casualties 
We are damaged provider modules 
Spill the seeds at our children's feet 
I'm so empty here without you 
I know they want me dead 

I know it's the last day on earth (chorus repeat) 




COMA WHITE
Something is cold and blank behind her smile 
She's standing on an overpass 
In her miracle mile 
(coma): 
"You were from a perfect world 
A world that threw me away today 
Today to run away"

A pill to make you numb 
A pill to make you dumb 
A pill to make you anybody else 
But all the drugs in this world 
Won't save her from herself

Her mouth was an empty cut 
And she was waiting to fall 
Just bleeding like a polaroid that 
Lost all her dolls 
(coma): 
"You were from a perfect world 
A world that threw me away today 
Today to run away"

A pill to make you numb 
A pill to make you dumb 
(chorus repeat) 




UNTITLED
In The End I Became Them And I Led Them
After All None Of Us Really Qualified as Humans
We Were Hardworn Automatic And As Hollow As The "O" In God
I Reattached My Emotions Cellular And Narcotic
From The Top Of Hollywood It Looked Like Space
Millions Of Capsules And Mechanical Animals
A City Full Of Dead Stars And A Girl I Called Coma White
This Is My Omega
