RIDING OVER
I'll be riding over if you ever wanna see me
I don't care what time it is it could be 5 or 3 a.m.
And if it's raining ice outside I guess I'll pay the price, it's fine
And if it's raining fire that'll just make things exciting
And when I finally get there could you tie me down to a chair?
Lock me in your closet and feed me whenever you want
I'll be dying daily just waiting for you to kiss me
If you don't come quickly I'll be dead before you get here
But don't leave behind my body, cook and eat me with spaghetti
And you can use my bones to make a music xylophone
And whenever you play it for me my love
I'll be waiting for you from below or above

SOMEDAY
Shattered glass down at my feet
I feel complete with you by me
Someday someday today, I'll stay
Right by your side
I won't go, I tried
You seem happy and it suites me
My dear, I fear I'm not enough so light me up
Someday someday today, i'll stay
Right by your side
I won't go, i tried

MAN IN THE MOON
When I see your face I want to run away
To another place we could be happy
Underwater waves, never take a break
They will bring the wind to where we're swimming
But on a perfect day in the middle of the rain
Under a skylight is where I'll be sitting
The man in the moon looks a lot like you
And whenever I want, I can wish upon a star for whatever I want
And however I feel, it's no big deal
Words will lead to silence
It smells like the sun from the burning wood
Put the liquor in boiling water
Makes my blood run warm underneath the storm
And when I breathe in, I can feel you leaving
The man in the moon looks a lot like you
The man in the moon looks a lot like you
And whenever I want, I can wish upon a star for whatever I want
And however I feel, it's no big deal
Words will lead to silence
Give me up, let me down or I'll stick around
And if I do, I'll love you when I calm down
And whenever I want, I can wish upon a star for whatever I want
And however I feel, it's no big deal
Words will lead to silence
Words will lead to silence

BABY BLUE
If you called then I would be appalled
Maybe I'd even fall harder still
I don't want to, but I need you
Could you be mine sometime soon?
You said light me up, but I couldn't
Does this mean you like me, forget it
With your black hair and your steady stare
I'm still falling and it's not fair
Political punk, you're so drunk and there's laughter
But I saw you crying over her
Do you love her?
Is there a cure?
You're the only one with your eye color
Burr, your eyes burn
Are you teasing, because it's pleasing?
Are you alright because you look freezing?
You're just playing with me, now I see
All I am to you is nobody
I dwelled too long cuz you led me on
I love you and it's your fault
Hey Paul, could you give me a call?
Cuz if you don't do something soon
I'll never be over you, baby blue
With your black hair and your strange stare
I'm still falling and it's not fair
You don't have a favorite color, do you?
Hmmmmmmm, baby blue
Baby blue, I love you
Or at least I used to

Sorry

SORRY
Bitch from another universe
Bitch from a fiction book
Bitch you are so wonderful
Bitch leave me alone
Sorry for shakin when you needed somebody sturdy
It's not me honey
Did you ever love me?
Or were you just gambling?
When you saw me laughing, thought you could make me yours
Well I've been there before
Sorry, I thought I could love you
But you're solid and I'm see-through
Who are you baby?
Your poker face doesn't phase me
It only makes me angry
Perfect mess, go back to class, re-take the test that you got an A on Because you failed me
And that isn't very easy
Cold heart in a hot body
You make me feel so sorry
And you guessed it
I guess I'm just jealous that you have a family
And you got Grace
You even have spare change, but you can't spare a smile
It's been nice not knowin' you all this time
And how dare you look at the picture I drew
Bitch, it was private, my only secret and you took it from me
You should be sorry
Sorry

GRACE
When she walked away the train came
When she walked away the train came
We were gonna get aboard in fur coats
You and me would be only alone
We'd be rollin around under fast clouds
And there'd be wine stains on our mouths
But I don't know where we'd go
But I don't know where we'd go
But I don't know where we'd go
When has that stopped us before
When she walked away the train came
When she walked away the train came
And it started to rain and she became
A washed out girl in a picture frame I made
I got on anyway
Throwing coal over the railing
Trying to pray
Good god give me grace
Meet me at the end of this place
Meet me in the middle of a bridge that burned away

BRUISES
When I take a bite, I have to eat the whole thing up
When I pick a fight, I have to be the one who's right
I'll just take the bruises with the fruit
And I'll just take the bruises with the losers too
Just another kind of girl with a mother and a world all her own
You can't reach the telephone, it'll just beep
Is she dying, is she dead?
She's alone inside her head
Does she need any help?
What a lonely place to be
When will you all leave me be?
To spend time with misery
She's always good company
I know you all wish me well
It's too bad I'm headed for hell
I'm too paranoid to breathe
There's no thought I can believe
I'm a pebble, I'm a flea
I have fallen from my tree
Rotting fruit bruises by me on the floor of my dreams
Nothing to do but stare up at the ceiling now that I'm peeling, I am soft You can eat me if you want
When I take a bite, I have to eat the whole thing up
When I pick a fight, I have to be the one who's right
I'll just take the bruises with the fruit
And I'll just take the bruises with the losers too

CLAUDIA
You're a liar, you're a leecher, you're a drinker, you're a smoker
You're a liar, you're a preacher, you're a non-stop talker
You're a liar, you're a stealer, you're a great manipulator
You're a liar, you're leecher, you're a bad bad girl
I want you out of my world
Get out of my mind, it's hard to find
Someone so selfish
Someone like Claudia
Claudia, paranoia,
Claudia ,Claudia, Claudia, paranoia
You're a runner, hate your mother cuz she's fucking evil
You're a speaker, you're a keeper, you're a disturbed sleeper
You're so funny, you're my honey, some day we'll make some money Suicidal, you're my idol and you're just 14
You're so crazy, you amaze me, explode in to confetti
You'll be my friend until the end, I wanna be there for you
Until the end of high school
Be there for Claudia
Claudia, paranoia
Claudia, Claudia, Claudia, paranoiaaaaaaa
Claudia Power is a coward
Claudia Power
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

PROFESSOR FAUST
Professor Faust, teach me about a brain that hates
A brain that doubts
Professor Faust, what are you talking about?
You taught me that a book could never learn me much
I thought I was missing you on Christmas and in school
But I was missing a man that I made up in my head
Oh anyway, you know it all
If I was fine maybe you'd call, but
You don't know what it's like to be a little girl
And I'll never find out what it's like to be a student in your school
Professor Faust, you're getting old
And all your glitter was never gold
Professor Faust, you sold your soul
The devil knows that I'm the toll, but
You don't know what it's like to be a little girl
And I don't mind if you go to hell

Tuesday Faust Portland, Oregon
Tuesday Faust’s debut record Killed The Cat weds the whimsy of quintessential jangle-pop bands like the Sundays and Velocity Girl to the unflinching lyrical candor of emo-folk bards Elliott Smith and Conor Oberst. The result is a collection of songs that are both sunny and sad, refulgent and melancholic—like bruises concealed by lipstick smiles and dollops of foundation. ... more
