Do you want go to school? Don't you want to have a job? Do you want to run in place? Don't you want anything at all? Are you happy with yourself? Aren't you sworn to tell the truth? Are you content as an adult? Aren't you glad to shed your youth? Will your heart be filled with love? Won't your brain do as it should? Will your life be spared of bad? Won't you only see the good? Is your smile like angel's? Isn't your soul as pure as snow? Since I haven't answered "yes" Then my favorite word is "no" So here we go My favorite word is "no" Ask all you want and I will still say no Ask me to stay and I will still go That's all the proof I need Say no and I'm set free Tell me tell me What's your favorite word to say? Tell me there's another way I swing a royal scepter, you'd know it by the smell Secreting screeching frequencies one octave below Hell Do you feel like you are free? Don't you desire to belong? Were you forgiven of your debts? Then your favorite word is... Ask all you want and I will still say no Ask me to stay and I will still go That's all the proof I need Say no and I'm set free When I was young somebody said You could have some over if you had some friends I'm married now, I pay my bills It's all over now but I hear you still Hold on a second, I've changed my mind I have three favorite words now My new favorite words are "go" and "fuck" and "yourself" Go fuck yourself You'll have to beg for my help I will reclaim The child from your pain

It's sweet to be a chickadee When the sky is blue and big But you can't maintain a nest When it's hard to come by twigs Misfortune's end is just beyond the bend Or so we said Stitch the other back together At the price of their own thread The lovers, they know One of them is eating for two She's nervous, it shows And he's not sure what he wants to do They're pregnant with doubt It's certain they won't make it through It's hopeless, they know It's worthless, they know It's impossible and useless and fruitless, they know It rains on their wings And their eyes always sting The voice in their heads incessantly sings Everyone is happy except you Everyone's attractive except you How could that possibly be the truth? Everyone is happy except you Is it true? They're not even phased by a limitation Or heartbreak because Days when they feel right are unexpected And suspicious He won't pray for victory anymore She won't say what's on her mind anymore The work day was long, they're on the floor One million bucks ain't walking through the door

Meet The Little Man He greets you mighty quick I hear it's clear he's queer, my dear Be mindful of his tricks Shake his little hands Tickle on his feet He pukes and coughs when he gets off Then offers you a seat Oh poor you, so confused Victim to a keen coup Had no clue she'd debut A melody tonight From above I drop the rope Dangle it around your nose Jerk on my string and you'll hear me sing A song from the spire Silence! She sings C-A-P-T-I-V-A-TING So prude! No time for suitors Unsuitable men with less than chaste intent Often pursue her She doesn't mind at all, you see The men of the village at her feet The men of the village on their knees These men will not receive release Piqued, they claim, "But I'm replete Equipped with all things that you need You prig, you tease, I've no disease Please proceed with "The Gentleman's Squeeze!" Make no hobby of disquisition Nature is a tune but you just won't listen Erections on legs, bumbling up the hill Little Man, earn your keep! Dose me with the Paradise Pills! Oh poor you

Now that we're free to speak the truth I care more about this than you I won't give up that's what you do I care more about this than you I care about you You care more about you Clock yourself, Polykron, tick tock tick No one will ever know I feel sick I must go, take me home, won't be missed Find a way for me to not exist Midnight hands touch, tamed by the tone Only myself when I'm alone Stoned, I pass the time in headphones Only myself when I'm alone

Four horns sound, four bells toll Four mares ride, gods behold Entopra/Erzatu: "Let's create a monster, The receipe's right here, Deny him of validation, Fertilize his fears!" Excoti: "Shut up now, give me the book!" Emito: "It's upside down." Entopra: "Let's have a look." Erzatu: "You three have it all wrong you see Turn to the chart on page 73."

Four horns sound, four bells toll Four mares ride, gods behold, Hell unfolds ????: "Simpletons, touched in the head Useless needles void of thread You must not take direction well Your skulls are not eggs, but unoccupied shells A major step was missed, though you're hearing this too late Yes, you robbed him of his bliss but you taught him to create!" As creeped out as you are By watching this I'm living it now

Christmas was meaningless, New Year's Day Goodbye to everyone, I'm not afraid Lion knocks at the door, let him in I don't care anymore, I can't win Receipt from the drug store, just in case Made sure that it will work, my blue face Two floors above the ground, there I spin I don't care anymore, I give in Pierre was aware The beast in the room had always been there Pierre falls without fear That was the first time a meal volunteered Sitting above in the loft, drug-erased My last living moment, smile on my face At least, I can have peace, start the fall The beast waiting for me, unhinged jaws Pierre to his surprise Sees familiar puppy dog eyes "Zero, my friend! I've missed you the most!" The boy and his dog reunited as ghosts "I'm so happy that you are here today I would like it if we had time to play But there's something more that I need to say Though I left you so many years ago Always I love you and you're not alone Waiting by her phone, distant Scorpio I was very sick and I watched you cry Sometimes it can hurt just to be alive But you can, you could, yes, you will survive Never meant to leave you so suddenly Felt your wish for me, sobbing privately Now that I am here, will you promise me? Don't you cry for me, you won't let me down! It's not time for you to lie in the ground What am I to do to care for you now? I must hurry now, our time's ending soon In my final thought that I share with you Before I return you back to that room Leave this world and you leave a hole The shape of your quixotic soul" We kiss goodbye, "Oh, I know you're strong Your flaws will pen their favorite songs You will meet with your friend again But not until your story ends Your blood still beats and I know, I checked Now's your chance, release your neck!" The ball has dropped, the couples kiss Another holiday I've missed My foot is reaching for the stairs My lungs are nearly drained of air "Yes! I'm here! The cord is slack My love, my life, I want it back." I catch my breath then hear a bark "Are you still there?" I ask the dark Between my fingers a clump of fur A howl that no one else had heard The beast whose maw could swallow Earth A curse, a breath, a life, a birth These days I'm living very differently Above that dog is always watching me An indifferent god who left me to die That old friend of mine brought me back to life So I say to you, if you're like Pierre You must find your truth, I can't take you there This is my story and I have to share You are somebody and somebody cares

You can't take a picture of this Because it's already gone Los Angeles area code But I decline the call I'm just not enough and the pay's not too much So she sat me down "My roots have been here for too many years You won't miss this town The mortgage was signed, I changed my last name That's just how it went Answer that call, hit the highway I won't let you make the same mistake "Everyone is waiting for you We want you to make your dreams come true You can borrow what we have Even if it's not much We're with you all the way Even if you fuck up You don't have to earn our love" When I get that first check, I know what it buys Every penny to the women in my life My mother gave me art, my grandma made me wise And it's easy to accept myself when I'm with my wife
