Lyrics: Demonstration

Otherworldly Mammal
When did we agree to run roughshod over me?
I'll forgive you one more time
though blood could be drawn
to alleviate the tedium
You hate that I know that you love me and couldn't care, I
Feel no need to know the meaning
I feel no need to know why you believe that
I'm a prophet or an otherworldly mammal, 'cause your mystery is clear to me as day
Sharpen my vision, like claws upon your face You kill me every time
Every time that I forgive you Every time you tell me one more lie
With new affectations and more complications you deny that
I'm a prophet or an otherworldly mammal, but your mystery is clear to me as day
Feel no need to know you're bleeding
I feel no need to know why you're relieved that
I'm a prophet or an otherworldly mammal, 'cause your mystery is clear to me as day
How does it feel to know that you can't move Until I tell you to
Why does it feel so good? Every time
You hate that I know that you love me and couldn't care, I
Feel no need to know the meaning
I feel no need to know why you believe that
I'm a prophet or an otherworldly mammal, 'cause your mystery is clear to me as day

No Human Words
The widowed whale never cried like this
How could I behave for that tranquil speech you gave
That ripped out chunks of me and served it like another's flesh
Is it too much to ask for you to understand
It would have been easier if you'd gone in a car crash
It would have been easier if you'd gone away forever
I can't get used to being something you don't want to touch
I'm not prepared to hemorrhage these emotions
There are no human words for this
The human mouth cannot express
What cannot find a moment's rest There are no human words for this
The beauty pageant of this world is always cruel
And the winning envelope has lost its perfume
Good things are so delicious to abuse
What have you let loose? This hole this thing this pain -
It does not feed on grass or grain
There is no sleep that's unpolluted by your lovely face
The memories are now poisoned by my ugly rage
I could forgive you if you'd gone in a car crash
Your consolations are the spit in the rapist's hand
There are no human words for this
The human mouth cannot express
What cannot find a moment's rest
There are no human words for this
This year's favorite might be next year's whipping boy
My sorrow's greater for the joy of hat we had before
If you had a single arrow you could find no place
in me to make a wound that is not bruised, that's not in pain
Damn it. pain. Why? pain. Stupid. pain. Wake up. pain. Cold Turkey. pain. Make it stop. pain.
Shut up. pain. I'm sorry. pain. Can't think. pain. Bitter. pain. Where are you? pain. Who is she?
pain. Pathetic. pain. ...and it was worth it... pain. You're done. What's next?
There are no human words for this The human mouth cannot express
What cannot find a moment's rest There are no human words for this

Amazing
My unlikely passions seem more possible today
This is how Delilah felt when Delilah had her way
We go in slow motion We take our precious time It is heaven's volition So we do it without inhibition
We taste each other's potion We'll go 'til we've arrived It's all that we're embracing
And every moment of it feels amazing
I knew you were coming from a mile away
Now I know so much about your face
Delivered swiftly from the sky You broke your oath You told them lies I'm a mere mortal in their eyes
I know they say it ain't right
But it's alright

Money Anyhow
Won't be talkin' much about the stuff I found
Lyin' in the gutter just lyin' around
Ten million dollars is going underground
Well
Maybe here's a reason but I shouldn't complain
That I found an opportunity to find a new name
Sick of all the people that I let into my head
I'm incredibly safe 'cause now I'm legally dead
Well, it's just Money Anyhow
I sail tonight for a distant shore, putting all my faith in this little rowboat
I have nothing to day 'cause I've got somewhere to go
A finger to your lips if you think that you have seen
a woman face her cage, her morality, and her money
Somebody Knows, Someone I Can't See
Someone Up Above and Someone Below Me
And my money
Conductor wants a ticket from the quiet little dame
Lookin' out the window of a one-way train
Thinkin' bout the future and the pistol in her blouse
Well, it's just money anyhow

The Body
If by chance I slap your face, there's a chance you'd run away
And the day I see you again I'll recognize you as a different man
- every memory
You can lie about your age and the crimes you've had to pay
All the details of your soul are exposed, bought and sold - everything
Promises made under pressure and back to your first kiss
Nothing is lost, nothing's a secret
If you can read, it's written on your body
On Your mind, In Your Eyes, it's written on your body
All that you go through is written on your body
Remember the first time you freaked out and back to your first bliss
Nothing is lost...
On your mind, In your eyes, On your body
You can cry about your age and the vows you've had to take
All the details of your soul are exposed, bought and sold... everything
Forgive the unspeakable pleasure, Oh, it's all in the wrist
Nothing is lost...

Morpheus Rising
Number the sins more serious than this purged with less regret
Swinging absolution with a sensuous twist
It's all in the way that you look at it
The bloodhounds of your mind, the gogo dancer on your precipice
won't let you jump, won't let you forget that
Whatever you were now you're something new
If you once were fragile now you're bullet proof
And fused into what I've made of you
Morpheus rises, bringing you the truth
You can deny your mysterious new mind
All you have known is shattered by the patterns of my transient soul
I've gone this far and I can't let go
I've chased you to escape the phantoms on your back
You're gorgeous when you vortex into all of that
Whatever you were now you're part of me
And you and I have gone way beyond belief
We don't exist so don't come looking for me
In the arms of Morpheus you'll be allowed to see
