Days of Disaster 03:09
lyrics
buy track
Spent all day getting hungry Now I'm reaching towards the city I just need somebody to get behind Strung out and stiff hearted Nobody in this town gets me This place is going out of style So tonight I'm gonna get wild These are the days of disaster Hardly get to recognize them Before they've passed ya How'd we even get so far? I hardly got to know you brother Maybe we're born from the opposite sides Makes you ache at the comedy of relation Somewhere on the eve of disaster I'm the orphan on the last evening train (You gotta get off sometime baby)

Going Gray 03:18
lyrics

Old dirty river’s going gray (from factory runoff) All of the trees have burned today (energy is gone) Lady’s on fire now Look at her smokin It’s time you kept a check on the rise of your humming shorelines so easily slips away Think about the ones in the widening gape I’m troubled by what I can’t change Slowly slipping under The waves of a garbage harbor The volcanic crash I’m caught in the path How can I get back? 4 million dying all alone (ten this week by the gun) not enough beds, no one to hold (lady’s on after dark) Melting ice-caps, lost falcons Struck with envy, my poison pen Things in the distance Are coming fast So forgive me I’m going gray

Nasty! 02:16
lyrics

The girl was half my age We were do or die and counting down the days To our son To our first born one I took a walk around And I patiently awaited the moment when you called me out Odd like the sound of a tin foil bomb I’d like to say you’re wrong but I don’t have time What’s the meaning of my life? Oh come on baby just try and shut your eyes Every day is wronger Just flip the book the earth is dying it’s grave I took a walk around Saw Betty and her baby Daisy foaming at the mouth They’d like to founder anybody’s fault But they didn’t find nothing Didn’t and they won’t What’s the meaning of my life? Oh baby I just don’t know I took a shot for all the dumbed down lies This world is so mysteriously tied To things beyond you and I I bought the box because history’s just some dying thing I bought the box because passion is so nasty today I need you to be nasty to me!

The Comfort Station 01:42
lyrics

Kathy is it true Under your glasses Is there a hole that’s filled An identikit So fine thinking of you On the veranda I gave you a parting gift It’s the knife I named “Alaska” Oh well! Muted memories talking Kathy kneels at the zero crossings Goes dark with me To buy the morning bird And think of songs of my destruction
