CALL IT A SHAME Give it a name, call it a shame cross eyed Jane, call it a shame Give it a shape, give it a face call it a shame, a bird in space You will sleep alright through the long lonely night I will hold you close you will be just fine Call to prayer, to nothing out there give it a name, call it a shame I will love you through any wrong you might do I will be deaf and dumb when the curtains come Call it a shame, give it a name cross eyed Jane, call it a shame You will sleep alright through the long lonely night I will hold you close you will be just fine

BEWARE A HOLY WHORE Beware a holy whore translucent man-o-war and the needles on the beach When you come up against the law they will always ride you raw with eternal overreach Walk upright, show your cleanest hand nothing comes too easy trouble always waits up late for thee Behold, a hit and run the long suffering son the Infant of Prague Upon the mercy of the court for want to cut this torture short- would you euthanize a dog? Walk upright, show your cleanest hand nothing comes too easy trouble always waits up late Beware the holier than thou who yoke you to the gospel plow and the tundra of the north You remain an irish child you were born afraid of the dark yet you always barrel forth

Sex Change 04:57
SEXCHANGE In the image in my mind you were falling far behind walking down Riverside doused in gasoline No one ever questioned what were they deigned to believe? all you or I knew was to suffer When you were in my arms you were barely even there these days there is nothing you can do to hurt me I only wish you well in navigating hell I don't try to comprehend the ways you suffer I'll roll you up those steps burden in heft all I can do is hold your hand, when you go under To the end of reproduction, until the end of reproduction to the end of reproduction, until the end of reproduction Love will find every fool love will find every freak love will see that to know it you will suffer To the end of reproduction, until the end of reproduction to the end of reproduction, until the end of reproduction

Pain to Burn 06:21
PAIN TO BURN Charlemagne Holy Emperor born to rule in a bloody blur baby, you are born to burn in pain all this pain is yours to burn The spiral never stops Make it hot make it hurt never hide your hairshirt Now that you know baby you can come to grips with this maybe let it go maybe give in baby you are made of nothing but pain All useless things will fall away Make it hot make it hurt never hide your hairshirt don't you want someone to love you? Baby your pain is born to burn DNA is born to burn baby I never will be healed baby you never will be healed The spiral never stops

Sweet Gene 06:06
SWEET GENE Saw you there, shorn of hair long gone look in your eye ­­­­­­­­­­­­­ which one of us, has lost touch both of us could be insane I knew you, I loved you, you were mine I held you, I saw you, on the day that you were born too far gone to get involved there are things that will never be resolved You're out there, i've seen you, a living ghost drifting through a crowd, with your insides hanging out There is a version of you in my memory where kindness kills off every cruelty there is a version of you that will always be mine I loved you, and I knew, something was wrong you lashed out at nothing restless, since you were born There’s a version of you in my memory that will always be my sweet Gene there’s a version of you in my memory where kindness kills off every cruelty you’ll always be my sweet Gene

Mary Alice 04:45
­­­­­­­­­­­­­MARY ALICE Go on, Mary Alice you’ll never know what hit you swim alone in the sun and starving between alligators nesting Think of the places you’ll never go when you're carrying firewood out in the snow spit in the river, kiss the ground grind to dust without a sound Hold on, mary alice no one can pull you under felled heads, roll and tumble peacefully through the valley Suffer long enough, it’s driven into your blood through your body, out the top of your skull Behold, my, Mary Alice a ghost of looming cruelty two pass on, two sad beside you this is all I can give you Work with people or work alone wear your fingers to the bone dive for rocks or dive for pearls swim in a school for wayward girls I know you won’t talk, you should never have need to You’ve said all you need for knowing

Morgellons 06:53
MORGELLONS What a wicked walk of life! Morgellons moving underneath coming to the surface now Red strands fall from my hands blue dust reflects in darkness shining when the sun goes down do you see it when the sun goes down? I was driving all alone I was Shaking like a leaf the sun was strobing through the trees on everything I left behind the sun moved away from me did you see it when the sun went down? Gather wits and regrets put them out to pasture even if you turn back now the sun is gonna go on down on everything you leave behind even if you turn back now

I Can Go On 03:35
I CAN GO ON Though it really hurts me I want you to know That i can go on, i can go on Here i am and im standing all alone No one left for me to call my own i can go on, i can go on So i wait as the nights roll by Hoping that she wont see me when i cry i can go on, i can go on Though it hurts and my heart beats fast I never look to the past through the past i can go on, i can go on i can go on, i can go on
