Translucent eyes, wasted and wild
Jet-black mind, taking your sweet time
Undead but not living, awake and wild
Translucent eyes, open up in the middle of the night
I got a shock in the middle of the night
It was a feeling that I had before
I heard the static from another time
It was the memory of another man's life
I felt a shot but it wouldn't sound
It was a feeling that I had before
I heard the static from another time
It was a record that I hadn't played
Translucent eyes, wasted and wild
Jet-black mind, taking your sweet time
Undead but not living, awake and wild
Translucent eyes, open up in the middle of the night
I felt a chill from between the haze
It was a feeling that I had before
I saw a woman in another room
It was a place where I've never been
I felt a shot but it wouldn't sound
It was a feeling that I had before
I heard the static from another time
It was a record that I hadn't played
Translucent eyes, wasted and wild
Jet-black mind, taking your sweet time
Undead but not living, awake and wild
Translucent eyes, open up in the middle of the night

Sick Inside

I shuffle down the sidewalk and I lurk around a bend
And I never lift my head because I'll never find a friend
Got a heart in my pocket that I've worried into stone
Keep replaying when you promised me I'd never be alone
It was your kind eyes that lit up every room
Your occasional smile became my sonic boom
Your pretty lips, I should have known
You came into my world, the sun's outshone
I'm all sick inside
Been good since time began
All sick inside
No I don't need a friend
You're on my mind
Come make it end
I'm all sick inside
I'll hate every second 'til I see you again
Baby you walk in such a way and you talk in such a way
The way you touch the way you taste, the way you say my name
It's your kind eyes that pull my soft sighs
They're so starry, they're so starry
They're so starry and it's too much
It's too much
Those kind eyes again
They really do me in
Those secret grins
No I don't need a friend
I'm all sick inside
I'm on tenterhooks
They do me in
You really really really got me shook

Savage mothers eat their children up
They cut them down to the bone
Kids get revenge with poison pens
And daddy's in the twilight zone
Happy families are all the same
They bore themselves to tears
So tell me a story that's grim and gory
Tell me about your fears
There's blood dripping down the horizon
There's a crow perched on top of the moon
Talons filled with dollar bills
And it's singing an ancient tune
That's the kind of thing that makes me grin
When my teeth are falling out
So tell me a tale that'll make me wail
Make me scream and shout
The dark at the top of the stairs
The storm cloud behind your eyes
The rain that will never end
The sun that will never rise
Rise
The dark at the top of the stairs
The storm cloud behind your eyes
The rain that will never end
The sun that will never rise
Rise
