1. _ Downwardspiral
All my troubles have found me today
"when will i hit the ground?" i hear myself say
But i just keep on falling weightless and half asleep
But i know someday those troubles will be mine to keep
Right now i'll put it off right now i will be shoving off
Downwardspiral
I have always heard you pay for your mistakes
But what currency will be accepted at that gate?
Have i cried enough? have i thought about it enough?
What's going to count when the road turns rough?

2. _ Sorry
I'm sorry
I let you get away before you heard me say
I didn't mean a word i said especially that i want you dead
I'm sorry
We sat on that picnic bench and drank til we started to fence
We used words instead of swords and i don't know who got the award
But i'm sorry
I'm a sorry son of a bitch but nothing i say seems to make you flinch
I'd get down on my knees and say, "pretty, pretty please!"
I'm on my window ledge eight stories down i'd be hard to catch
A crowd gathers for the hunt and i swear i heard you scream, "jump!"
You'll be sorry

3. _ Western Medicine
I've forgotten why i came here but i know why i stayed
I came to love this dirty town and its passion plays
But when you relive the same bloody war
Even with different actors you start to want something more
Western medicine
I've forgotten how i lived with my disease
I've forgotten how i lived could you remind me please
Remember when you found me in that silly cage?
You opened the door and said i never really had to stay
Western medicine
It's so simple that's it's stupid, it's so simple: love!

4. _ I'll Build A Fire
I can't get what i want i can't get what i want
But i want what i want
So i'll make people listen i'll make people
I'll build a fire so high
I'll build a fire in my eyes
I'll build a fire that won't die
I'll build a fire and light the sky
Noone listened when i was younger
Noone listened and now i'm stronger
Noone listened but now they'll hear me

5. _ Bury Me
I checked my baggage with the man at the station
But i still felt heavy and complacent
I try to let go and feel free
But all my possessions are buryin' me
Bury me bury me take me down to the hanging tree
I went back home and tried to forget
But the phone kept ringin' like a burnin' cigarette
So i drank like a fish swimmin' in the sea
All my vices are buryin' me
Bury me bury me take me down to the hanging tree
I woke up determined to lose myself
So i went into town and i offered my help
They surely declined when they took a look at me
All my bullshit is buryin' me

6. _ The Half I Saw
I first saw her face on a silver screen
It was a matinee, a european
I kept returning for at least ten more shows
Then i followed that film 'round until it closed
Someone else should've been thinking for me
They would've said an actress only gives you half the story
The half i saw was more than enough
The half i saw was almost too much
I joined her fan club boy did i ever feel young
I couldn't stop myself i was so badly stung
I found out where she lived i quit my job to find
This flicker in the dark i couldn't leave behind
Someone else should've been thinking for me
They would've said an actress only gives you half the story
I went to santa barbara and tried to find that girl
But no one can ever tell you it's impossible...
I hitchhiked home and i got my old job back
I had to take their shit i had to watch them laugh
Now i spend my nights in front of my t.v.
I finally figured out just what she means to me
No one else has to do my thinking for me
I want my actress to just only tell me half the story
The half i saw was more than enough
The half i saw was almost too much

7. _ The Undead
Fats waller on my stereo raisin' hell
And the tv's got the sound turned down but i see william powell
And he's got myrna loy in a fond embrace
And i know she's not acting by the smile on her face
The undead the undead they fill my head
Bix beiderbecke stayed high as long as he could score
He wanted to play less cornet but the fans wanted more
So he hid away in a cheap motel
And he played his piano in both heaven and in hell
The undead the undead they keep me fed
James whale would not hide the fact that he liked boys
He worked at universal in the 30s making noise
Horror films with black humor and grace
And when he checked himself out he left a note behind in case...we might forget

8. _ I Had To Do It
I had to do it, i had to do it i had no choice
I had to do it, what would i tell my boy?
I had to do it, i haven't found work since june
There's food and the medicine and christmas is coming soon. i had to do it.
Now don't you start talking about morality
You'll only start me thinkin' about my mortality
'cause it's so easy to judge me when you don't really think much of me
And you've all got plenty of money
I had to do it, i already made the plan
I had to do it, i hired every man
In my opinion crime is a sacred cow
Should i wait forever or take my compensation now? i had to do it.
Now everything was goin' so smoothly
Til i figured out the crew i hired were just using me
So i gave them the slip and i unbuttoned my lip
Cause i know when to quit
I can't undo what i've done but if i'm good could i please see my son?
I had to do it, i walked away with just some scars
I had to do it, i'm safer behind bars
The crew are resting they're all taking the big sleep
A promise is something you should always keep
I had to do it

9. _ Rosewood Casket
There's a little rosewood casket filled with her letters
And any other thing she gave to me,
And i don't know why i keep it
She is so long gone and i don't know why i cry every day
I see her on the street, she smiles so sweetly
And i look her in the eye and try to do the same
And i don't know why i do it
She is so long gone and i don't know why i go there every day
I wish i could climb in a little rosewood casket
And i wanna to sleep forever or til my sleep is done
But sleep won't make things better
And time won't move faster, only the end can cure what's wrong
There's a little tiny detail i always leave out
And that is why she left me as if there was some doubt
But all that really matters is i lost the war
And i don't think he's a good friend anymore

10. _ Jealous Of Your Throne
I don't mean to gripe but i saw you open tonight
In your latest play and i know what your critics will say
They'll say you should've stayed home and your mind wanders then it roams
They're just jealous of your throne
You've had a little to drink but first night jitters shouldn't make you think
Of giving up the ghost, it's what you do best and i love the most
But they'll say you should've stayed home and go over you with a fine tooth comb
They're just jealous of your throne
So please don't close the show
Take a deep breath and then blow
Everyone away and close your ears to the small minds that say
You sing in a monotone that sounds best on the telephone
They're just jealous of your throne

11. _ The General Died At Dawn
Don't wave that flag in my face
You don't have energy to waste
Your arms will break your legs will crack
From marching back and forth and back
You hear a scream and take the bait
We all need a reason to hate
The theater of war is sold out
"give us an encore!" the audience shouts
The general died at dawn he wanted to live but not too long
Some things have more power when they're no longer here
Ideas to believe in that are not clear
A slogan makes the logic stop
Until you're ready to join the mob
But who's gonna buy 'bloodshed'
When you can sell 'pride' instead
Nothin' wrong with national pride
Except when it eats you up inside
And all you can see is red
And the only good foreigner is dead
The general died at dawn he wanted to live but not too long
Some things have more power when they're no longer here
Ideas to believe in that are not clear

12. _ What Pauline Kael Thinks
She may be influential
She might state her case like a pro
She might be a real great writer
But i won't follow wherever she goes
Cause she tried to steal the one true jewel in orson welles' crown
But all her biting wit and accusations didn't bring him down
She never floats as many ships as she sinks
And i don't care what pauline kael thinks
She never floats as many ships as she sinks
And i don't care what pauline kael thinks
Maybe it's cause she's not beautiful
Maybe it's cause she's just too damn smart
Maybe it's cause she believe it's the truth
Or maybe it's cause she likes breaking hearts
Well it probably doesn't matter cause i'll read her anyway
But someday soon i'll throw that book down and just walk away
She never floats as many ships as she sinks
And i wish i didn't care what pauline kael thinks
No i wish i didn't care what pauline kael thinks
No i wish i didn't care what pauline kael thinks
