No one at the party knew what a genius you were and I myself was only just discovering the extent then you tried to stick your entire tongue inside that poor girl's ear and we got kicked out but that was usually how things went We passed out on the Boulevard St. Michel and all I remember of that is nothing Girl in Boston with the long brown hair, how we wanted her so you said, "She looks like butter melting on a waffle" then I had her, you had her friend, and I apologize Je me souviens bien comme elle avait chaud au cul We did the walk of shame in the wrong direction but somehow that just made it cooler--yeah! Singing George Michael's 'Faith' with a deficit of irony: "I know not everybody's got a body like you." Faith faith Faith faith

Is it only in my head? The moon is just a fingernail every cloud's a Death's Head see how the zero bleeds from the edge Take a walk outside in the blazing midnight sun all the dead are in machines and your deeds are all undone It's the voice of the angels in a Xerox machine it's the Devil's fingerprints in a swirl of gasoline Is it only in my head? See how the zero bleeds from the edge [All we ever wanted was everything all we ever got was cold get up, eat jelly sandwich bars and barbed wire squash every week into a day O, to be the cream!] Is it only in my head? See how the zero bleeds from the edge

Fallin' Anvils I have known sudden romances that break your every bone The love of a woman can shatter your spine grind you to dust on the ground when you thought it was just a good time It comes out of nowhere when you think it's all fine much like the windshield to the wayward dragonfly I have done nothing of which I'm ashamed but I know there's an anvil somewhere overhead bearing my name (André!)

​ Have you ever wondered baby If I feel the same? I think while we were sleeping Everything got rearranged First it's ancient curses Then you're on the wrong damn train Getting lost within the pages of Love & Death Under the Rain Whatever you want Whatever you need We can be visionaries Of make-believe Nights I lie awake and Listen to the falling rain And I work on fitting pieces Of the puzzles inside your name Whatever you want Whatever you need We can be visionaries (You maybe more than me) Whatever you want Whatever you need We can be visionaries If incompletely Of make-believe
