1.Proto Pretty

(n. walusko - d. sahanaja)

I wanted to give my soul to you.

I thought i could feel you pulling me through.

The dna is pretty - you know it makes me smile.

The oxygen is plenty - don't touch that dial.

I thought i could make it, but only with you.

I wished i could bake it - if only i could.

The dna is pretty - you know it makes her smile.

The jellyhead is singing - don't ask her why.

Oceans old,

From a river flow,

Forever slip away...

I wanted to give my soul to you.

I thought i could feel you pulling me through.

The dna is pretty - you know it made me smile.

The oxygen is plenty - don't touch that dial.

The dna is pretty - you know it made her smile.

The jellyhead is singing - don't ask her why.

The dna is pretty - you know it made us smile.

The trilobite is swimming inside our mind.

Proto-pretty


2.Fleur-de-lis

(n. walusko)

Came the day i saw her, walking on the water,

And i was sinking in the sand.

And i thought i caught her,

But she was a little out of hand.

She's in a citadel that she built on her own.

She let her hair down for me.

Wish i'd keep her only locked away just for me,

But she's already doing time.

She's a concrete flower,

Squeezing in the hour 'til you're gone.

You're in a citadel that you built on your own.

Just let your hair down for me.

Could be a million reasons,

But you found just one - just one.

Fleur-de-lis frozen lily

Fleur-de-lis frozen lily

Silent sands are pouring, patiently ignoring

The minutes sliding into years

From the time i lost her,

Through the door of summer where she remains...

Forever out there

Fleur-de-lis frozen lily

Forever out there

Fleur-de-lis frozen lily

Fleur-de-lis

Forever out there


3.Tracy Hide

(d. sahanaja)

Who is the girl by the railway station lost-and-found?

Her warm coat, eiderdown.

Her eyes are cloaked in auburn combed brown.

Tracy hide go seek within my mind.

Outside, the world seems so unkind. she hides.

Not far away from the schoolyard, carved an elegy.

'til then, you're here with me.

The endless cry of an aching melody.

Tracy hide go seek within my mind.

Outside, the world seems so unkind. she hides.

I feel her holding back the tears of time,

Haunting me like a nursery rhyme.

Who is the girl with the paintbox -

Canvas the sad clouded skies -

Opens her eyes to find me here -

To blind the fears and the lies.

Alone, she's my one and only truth.

Tracy hide go seek within my mind.

Outside, the world seems so unkind. she hides.

(repeat)


4.She Opens Heaven's Door

(n. walusko)

She opened heaven's door and let me come inside.

Imagine all you want and all you need to find.

But wanting something changes fast

The thing you want,

So let's pretend it wasn't there for you to count.

A flower opens heaven's door - in her.

And now i tasted something more - with her.

It's good to know a smile can spread in many ways,

And like a sugar crystal, melted, candies glaze.

When heaven's so much closer than a falling star,

You go, and there you find one - there - it's not too far.

A flower opens heaven's door - in her.

And now i tasted something more - with her.

A flower opens heaven's door - in her.

And now i tasted something more - with her.

And love can move us in the lights of life that glow,

Like fireflies in coruscating dances slow.

Just when you talk, you stop and think another way.

It's over there beyond a ledge of knolls, they say.

Ah la la la


5.Libbyland

(d. sahanaja)

Once again they played the pawn.

Seems the overtime's well-spent.

Sacrifice your sunshine for the rent.

Never had the guts to question why.

Makes you want to shrivel up and die.

So every time the world's a-stutter,

Libbyland's a place you can call your own.

And if you find your road is cluttered,

Close your eyes and laugh yourself all the way home.

It's funny where their interests lie -

In god and platinum we trust,

'til you feel just like a speck of dust.

Rumor has your title up for sale,

And if you must succeed, your friends must fail.

So every time the world's a-stutter,

Libbyland's a place you can call your own.

And if you find your road is cluttered,

Close your eyes and laugh yourself all the way home.

You're in the eye of the psyclone,

Where foolish angels fear to go.

They'd never know that your revolver was set to unload.

Explode!

Slip into another world...

It's a place you can call your own.

And if you find the world's a gutter,

Close your eyes and laugh yourself all the way home.

The leprechaun's your ticket-taker,

Libbyland's a place you can call your own.

So say goodnight, you mischief-makers -


6.Shine

(n.walusko)

When i saw you in a

Mirror humming like a

Jet plane coming overhead

A rooftop faraway at night

Coming coming coming bright

Like a swirly eye-shape on

A simulated wood-grain god

In a dazzling form of flames

Recurring dream where i saw you

And nothing happens but i do

See the sun

In your heart

Feel the shine

Above

And if she laughs with happy

Little bubble colors

Bursting silent like a star

Shut your eyes and some things change

Skeletons will rearrange

See the sun

In your heart

Feel the shine

Above

Shine. . .


7.Thought Back

(d.sahanaja - m. roohk)

And i won't let you cry again.

No, i won't let you cry to make me want you.

You know you know what all i've been through,

So now what else do you want me to do?

And i won't let you cry again.

I won't let you cry.

Thought twice on another's advice that nothing

Could come from you.

Thought twice that it would have been nice to see you.

Thought back but i couldn't keep track of everything you do.

Thought back as a matter of fact, but i feel you stalking.

Another day goes by, another crime.

You'd have your way again.

And you've nothing to say - that's the way it will be.

You think you're as far as you can see,

But i think that you'll be there without me.

You'd have your way again.

You'd have your way.

Thought twice on another's advice that nothing

Could come from you.

Thought twice that it might've been nice to see you.

Thought back but i couldn't keep track of everything you do.

Thought back as a matter of fact, but i feel you...

Another day goes by, another crime.

And there's no alibi to waste my time.

Another day goes by, and i could feel you near

And i'll never let you do me like you did before.


8.Time

(d. sahanaja - b. kassan)

Time, i see you wasting all this time,

But it's not mine. it's your dime.

Time, i see you running on the line

And it's not right to fear the light.

And all the things you said, you understood well.

The past is gone

And there's no welcome in your eyes.

Time, i feel you wasting all this time

And it's a crime. it's so sublime.

And all the things we did, you understood well.

We can't deny. there's no hiding this disguise.

Oooh, gonna let you down

Oooh, gonna let you down this time.

And i'll be fine.

Oooh, let you down.

Oooh, gonna let you down this time

And never pay you mind.

Time, i think you're running out of signs

To join with mine. it's so unkind.

And all the things we said, you understood well.

We can't deny and there's no welcome in your eyes.


9.Global Village Idiot

(n.walusko)

Got a letter - maybe better that i get a piece of you instead.

All the chatter doesn't matter when you realize it wasn't read.

Can't be nothing when it's something that will get

Attention anyhow,

Like a doggy in the window with his head a-going up

And down.

Sister suzie with an uzi that eventually got her fame.

Next door neighbors doing favors for a pipe dream in

The media drain.

'she was always such a quiet...such a quiet neighbor

Of a girl.'

But no one asked her what it's like to be a stranger in a

Stranger world.

Have a vision in collision with the vehicles you had to rent.

Loud as honey dripping money for ideas in retirement.

Little brother watching big brother watching for a

Thought disease.

And no one caught 'em picking petals in the minds

Of psychodaisies.

Stop the world, stop the world, i'm a global

Village idiot.

As it turns, as it turns out to be the biggest job

I forget

Tone of silence rings the violence like a halo resting

On the horns.

Make the angels so pathetic with their cybernetic

Crown of thorns.


10.Playtex Aviary

(d. sahanaja)

Another dive

Everything is comical to me

Another silicon display

All night and all day

Oh night and day

Every morning i wake up

Every morning i sigh

I keep mourning the truth that's lost inside

All night all day

A state of mime

And i'm still born before my time

She's a lycanthrope buffet

All night and all day

Oh night and day

Every moment i break up

Every moment i cry

Through her eyes i can feel the void

And the truth that's lost inside

Look in her eyes


11.In A Haze

(d. sahanaja - b.kassan)

She never tells him what she wants or what she needs.

It seems to him the time is lost. it's so hard to believe.

He thought they had a real good time - or so she said.

But now he knows their passion played a tape inside her head.

Things they would say,

Moments aflame -

And now it's over.

Another day on his own,

And now it's just a haze of memory and

He's alone.

And how the time has passed him by inside his room.

A chord is struck, a melody comes floating from him soon.

And now he's found the simple pleasure inside his head.

A memory lost on paper in a box under the bed.

Moments aflame -

Nowhere the game -

And now it's over.

Another day on his own,

And now it's just a haze of memory and

He's alone.

The kind of pain

He must outgrow,

For what it's worth now,

A memory and he's alone.

He's alone.

He's alone.

He's alone.


12.Carnival Of Souls

(n.walusko)

You hang around those people like you really care.

Since when have you just been all by yourself?

Not everybody's someone else,

And it's not enough to let them be like you.

It's good to see you.nice to see you. hi hello.

I don't believe, don't believe you have to go.

So nice to see you. good to see you. hope you're

Doing well.

I guess i'll leave you to your carnival of souls.

No matter what the score was, always you're the best.

So good at simplifying all the rest.

But now you're asking for some help,

And who knows what to do?

(chorus)

I won't deceive you like your carnival of souls.

All of the time, there's no one,

And now there's someone else.

You're dressed in black because it's safer dead.

Oh satisfaction holds you in your electric chair.

You threw the switch and all the guilt was spread,

For who's behind is now ahead

And it's gonna be just you against you.

So nice to see you. good to see you. hope you're

Doing well.

I'm gonna feed you to your carnival of souls.

Good to see... nice to see... what to do.

Just don't believe it... don't believe it's not the truth.

So nice to see you. good to see you. hope you're

Doing well.

I've got to leave you to your carnival of souls.

I don't care.
