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 01:54
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

Paul 04:15
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 05:04
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 03:15
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 02:10
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

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

about

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
