Past Lives 03:07
We were lovers in a past life I can see it in your blue eyes Maybe you were one of my wives In a long lost tribe There's just something ‘bout you I know It started centuries ago, though See your soul is like a lost ghost Only I would know But I I keep on falling For you, time after time Time after time Don't you remember, time after Time after time Time after time See millennia ago love We were nothing more than stardust Just the galaxy beneath us We found weight Then we made it through the Ice Age But I lost you in the crusades I built the pyramids for you, babe Just to see your face But I I keep on falling For you, time after time Time after time Don't you remember, time after Time after time Time after time

He's Acting 02:07
He acts just like he's listening But he don't hear the words He acts just like he's listening But he don't hear the words Sometime it occurs to lie But then I change my mind Till it's over

Four seasons in one day Lying in the depths of your imagination Worlds above and worlds below The sun shines on the black clouds hanging over the domain Even when you're feeling warm The temperature could drop away Like four seasons in one day Smiling as the shit comes down You can tell a man from what he has to say Everything gets turned around And I will risk my neck again, again You can take me where you will Up the creek and through the mill Like all the things you can't explain Four seasons in one day Blood dries up Like rain, like rain Fills my cup Like four seasons in one day It doesn't pay to make predictions Sleeping on an unmade bed Finding out wherever there is comfort there is pain Only one step away Like four seasons in one day Blood dries up Like rain, like rain Fills my cup Like four seasons in one day

I don't want to work away Doing just what they all say Work hard, girl and you'll find One day you'll have a job like mine 'Cause I know for sure Nobody should be that poor To say yes and sink low Because you happen to say so, say so, you say so I don't want to work away Doing just what they all say Work hard, girl and you'll find One day you'll have a job like mine, job like mine, a job like mine Be wise, look ahead Use your eyes he said Be straight, think right But I might die tonight! ahhhhhhhhh

Secret Smile 02:47
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile And you use it only for me Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile And you use it only for me So use it and prove it Remove this whirling sadness I'm losing, I'm bluesing But you can save me from madness Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile And you use it only for me Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile And you use it only for me So save me I'm waiting I'm needing, hear me pleading And soothe me, improve me I'm grieving, I'm barely believing now, now When you are flying around and around the world And I'm lying alonely I know there's something sacred and free reserved And received by me only Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile And you use it only for me Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile Nobody knows it Nobody knows it Nobody knows it but you've got a secret

To me, coming from you Friend is a four letter word End is the only part of the word That I heard Call me morbid or absurd But to me, coming from you Friend is a four letter word To me, coming from you Friend is a four letter word End is the only part of the word That I heard Call me morbid or absurd But to me, coming from you Friend is a four letter word When I go fishing for the words I am wishing you would say to me I'm really only praying That the words you'll soon be saying Might betray the way you feel about me But to me, coming from you, Friend is a four letter word

Hurt 03:49
I hurt myself today, to see if I still feel, I focus on the pain, the only thing that’s real The pavement tears a hole, the old familiar sting Try to kill it all away, but I remember everything What have you become, my sweetest friend Everyone you know, goes away in the end And you can have it all, your empire of dirt You will let me down, you will make me hurt You wear this crown of shit, upon your liar's chair Full of broken thoughts, I cannot repair Beneath the stains of time, the feelings disappear I am someone else, you are still right here If you could start again, a million miles away You would keep yourself, you would find a way

Big pain burnin' down Giving me a cow what you Seem to be sayin’ is you're patiently waiting like an ashtray for the butt Well I'm puttin it down But you're not picking it up Yeah I'm puttin it down but you treat me like a clown and I don't wanna be funny Fat chance glued to the wall like a centerfold of an old cannonball will you put me inside your TV tonite cause you're treatin' me like a rerun So what I lost my job at the Hut My ass got cut but I'll be better at kissin' When my teeth are all missin' And the silverware's burnt and I'm eatin' with my fingers No no no I don’t want to be funny
