LYRICS

Depersonalized

my mind is a complex machine and sometimes my memory fails me sometimes i feel trapped in a box that is tapped so others can see what i think but i have one private tank thats hidden and never been used it's personalized and free from all lies and you ask me to give it to you?

Personalized

i rode alone with you
and took you on the road today and showed you what was wrong
i came upon my space
saw everything surrounded by another place you want to go, but i only want you to know your'e safe

but you know i don't like being personalized
everybody's always asking me when they should know,
they know

i dropped you off in town and let you out but it was loud
and so you climbed back in
but if you're here to stay just know that there's another world
inside my head that i don't want you to know

you know i don't like being personalized
everybody's always asking me when they should know,
they know

Inhibition

fill me in on inhibition
while i knock on the door
i asked nicely, it was your decision
now you're sleepin on the floor
you left yourself a smile or two
in case of times like these
a lie of little circumstance
to put yourself to sleep

well don't come around
i'm stuck on a sound
of a chronicle of lives interwined with mine
and the way that the darkness reflects in her eyes
there'll come a time when
you too will find
your friend

tell me all about your vision
of flying through the sky
the release of your invention
for the good of humankind
then slip away into a crowd
of empty, hollow rooms
and tell them of the happiness
you think i thought you'd found

well don't come around
i'm stuck on a sound
of a chronicle of lives intertwined with mine
and the way that the darkness reflects in her eyes
there'll come a time when
you too will find
your friend

Manhole

hey clare, are you under there?
i'm in a manhole holding a candle
hey pete, come down from the street
won't you have a seat?

i'm in a man's world, and your'e a dreamgirl
i'd like to stay but i'll be late
deep, in a hole, there's a goings on
and you should join them
leap, like a toad, the sun's much brighter in this layer, o

pete's sick, from sleeping on the ship
he can't think straight so for pete's sake
he'll be there, just save him a chair
won't you have a seat?

I'm in a dream world, and your'e a man's girl
i'd like to stay but i'll be late
deep, in a hole, there's a goings on
and you should join them
leap, like a toad, the sun's much brighter in this layer, o

The Salty City

norman needs a nap now,
the sun's been going down
set the red alarm clock,
the ship is going down, dropped
by on its way out of town, your'e free

now no one does you harm if you don't stop
don't even turn around, don't look back
you'll turn to salt, i know it's not alot
but it's the best that we've got

i will need a napkin to wipe away a frown
the six o'clock alarm's off, it's time to watch the news, the
word is getting out that, i'm free

now no one does you harm if you don't stop
don't even turn around, don't look back
you'll turn to salt, i know you hurt alot
but your'e the best man we've got

Old Mary Weather

Old Mary Weather, pull yourself together, there’s nothing to get worked up about.
Walking around, you followed a clown now there’s nothing, no reason to shout;

A shame we couldn’t be there,
Waving our arms in the air…

Waiting to fly, bring us a smile from the sky;
Wait for a king, you elegant thing don’t you cry.

Old Mary Weather, for one thing you’d never get caught up in what to correct.
Wait for the day, you travel away not knowing just what to expect;

Trains all ride to the sun,
Far too long or you’d run…

Waiting to fly, bring us a smile from the sky;
Wait for a king, you elegant thing don’t you cry.

Everyone’s watching the moon,
Oh what a day!
At last your ship has come,
To take you away!
