I sat beauty on my knee
she disappointed me
and so I told her how to be
that she'd insulted me
Magistrate
You're stained, you're stained
Emperor
You're stained, you're stained
Take your time
make sure it's all that you can find
Carve a line
and get on the right side
Something got a hold of me
a greater force than me
I told her then and there we'll be
a pair indefinitely
Bend the line
make sure it's harder to define
Compromise
gets you on the right side
Magistrate
You're stained, you're stained
Councillor
You're stained, you're stained
Emperor
You're stained, you're stained
Councillor
You're stained, you're stained

A heart beating in the morning sun
I throw myself from one chair to another
A symbol system for everyone
I lend myself to one and then another
Coming on with double talk
I stay neutral
Move over I'm the new kid
I move quickly
An eye dropper and a bleeding arm
I'll take you there cause I got no honour
so hold me up from one side
and we can make the feeling go on longer
Twelve hours gone and we're still waiting
keep dreaming
I remember when days were so bright and full of questions
no longer

I Think I Remember

You said I think I remember
you were the carrier I was the load
the sky above me was open
I was bonded to the ground below
You're in the middle of science and art
trying to fix it just pulled it apart
And now my clothing is frozen
I'm the holder of a dead man's hand
I got around your inspection
there's gonna be a new demand
You're in the middle of science and art
trying to fix it just pulled it apart
I got your message I'm thinking in through
distance is lending enchantment to the view
my time is burning a hole in my mind
must be the part wants to see you some time
You're in the middle of science and art
trying to fix it just pulled it apart

These memories are burning
a hole in my back pocket
keeping a track of the ghost years all this time
is eating me alive
Life at large
in a one horse town
If you regret it
you can pretend you were not around
Is there a hand holding me under
or is it my own weight?
I've been told to keep my eyes open
but I can't watch
Life at large
in a one horse town
If you regret it
you can pretend you were not around
Is there a hand holding me under
or is it my own weight
I've been told to keep my eyes open
but I can't watch anymore

Bones
03:16

I found a little piece of me
in every word you said
without any shelter
they'll wash away
'cause fighting in a vacuum makes you come on stronger
and dying in your bedroom makes you live a little longer
I find myself holding on
to every stolen day
We're never gonna be complete
unless we're lying at each other's feet
I've turned away
I will return
with hands of stone
My shattered feet
my tired back
they're gonna have new bones
I catch myself
hanging on
to every word you say
If I ever get control of myself
I swear I'll never let you get away
