Stained 05:28
Words: I've watched you leave with him in my head, every night since the day you left I've felt you buried in-side my skin, like a tick that I can't seem to shed And I feel a vacancy In every part of me And now I'm rotting away And why did you tell me who you left me for? And why did you curse me with your burden? It should only be yours I hope you're happier in his arms and that you've found what you lacked in our rut I hope his features are better to watch, and you can finally leave your eyes open when you're making love And I made the same mistake Not making your heart break And now you're leaving, while I wait And I'm shaking...And I'm shaking... And why did you tell me who you left me for? Why did you curse me with your burden? It should only be yours And why did you leave me with your cuts while I'm in pain? And why did you leave me to the dust then make it rain? Maybe I'm stained Maybe I'm stained And I'm shaking...I'm shaking And why did you tell me who you left me for? Why did you curse me with your burden? It should only be yours And why did you leave me with your cuts while I'm in pain? And why did you leave me to the dust then make it rain? Maybe I'm stained Maybe I'm stained Maybe I'm stained...

Save Her 04:10
Words: she's still a beauty when she cries with every fallen leaf, another STREAM RUNS DRY (and oo) she ain't got no flaws (and oo) she's a work of art what a perfect system be what a precious gift is she JUST A SEED of all her worth with mountains left to learn SO PLEASE SAVE HER PLEASE SAVE HER she's got a body with a perfect form and when it all moves together, she can SETTLE THE STORM (and oo) she's a grand design but we cut right through, HER BLOOD RUNS DRY what a mess of perfect SOIL what a waste of her precious DROPS rat raced and OVERWORKED she's tiring out her turn SO PLEASE SAVE HER PLEASE SAVE HER won't you SAVE HER, won't you SAVE HER? SAVE HER SAVE HER won't you SAVE HER, won't you SAVE HER? SAVE HER SAVE HER make love to her, love to her she needs some tender touch move at her pace, SLOW DOWN THE RUSH can't love her too much she's DROWNING (and we can SAVE HER) DROWNING (we can SAVE HER) cause all we'll ever need she's offering... SO PLEASE SAVE HER PLEASE SAVE HER PLEASE SAVE HER PLEASE SAVE HER...

Words: Where do YOU fall on the spectrum of sexuality? of sexuality? Where do YOU fall on the spectrum of sexuality? of sexuality? and i can truly swear that every love I share is a real thing yeah man it's a good thing and it's buried deep, it's a part of me it's a true thing; it's inside of me everyone loves someone regardless of their gender, so why would you think there's some agenda? everyone loves a man and woman somewhere, so why would you think there's nothing there? Where do YOU fall on the spectrum of sexuality? of sexuality? Where do YOU fall on the spectrum of sexuality? of sexuality? what in nature moves linearly? planets and seasons move circularly what in nature is really black and white? flowers and twilight share every shade of light every man loves a man; every woman loves a woman, so why would you think that love's inhuman? every life wants to love and wants love in return, so why would you want that love to burn? Where do YOU fall on the spectrum of sexuality? of sexuality? Where do YOU fall on the spectrum of sexuality? of sexuality? love is a gift from the powers on high it gets rid of pain when you can’t get by and when you're facing terror, you're scared for your life love is something greater that can make it right and it’s a colder world if you can’t love you want take it from yourself to choose your love no I don't want to see the same old script it's like every child’s taught to be the same old kid I like to think of my god as an artist who'd paint me with a pallet of multi-chromomatics so let’s systematically remove the dogma there's more than two ways you can reach a climax and on the spectrum of your sexuality let's find respect for individuality this train’s a comin’ like it was in the 60’s so hop on the scale and we’ll weigh ya like Kinsey Where do YOU fall on the spectrum of sexuality? of sexuality? Where do YOU fall on the spectrum of sexuality? of sexuality? Where do YOU fall on the spectrum of sexuality? of sexuality? Where do YOU fall on the spectrum of sexuality? of sexuality?

Words: Could we take this baggage off? It's like a bag of bricks attached to my legs as I walk And I know this has all been harder for you But you have no idea You have no idea Can we start over, over? Can we start over, over? Can we...start over? I didn't mean to hurt you I just didn't want to lose you And when I reached to grab you I pushed you even more It's been burning too long And the candle's run down But if we clean all the wax out Maybe you'd fall for me now? Can we start over, over? Can we start over, over? Can we start over, over? Rewind the heart and start...start over? You've made some mistakes Said too much in the past So I dragged you on a chain And moved too fast I'm sorry for the silence I just didn't have the words But now I'm ready for my turn Could we take this bandage off? It's stuck to my skin, but the wound has healed up And I know this all has all been harder for you And I have no idea I have no idea Can we start over? Can we start over? Can we start over? Rewind the heart and start...start over? Rewind the heart and start over ? (Could we take this off and start--) Maybe we could try as normal Maybe we could start all over Maybe we could put the past down Maybe we could start it now Can we start over? Can we start over? Can we start over? Rewind the heart and start...start over? (Could we take this off and start over?) Rewind the heart and start...start over? (Could we take this off and start over?)
