Ask me again about the switch and if I wanted it
Ask me again if I'm in it or if I'm offended
When you're this sick it makes me rich could you hold off below
And you're so sweet it makes me itch beneath the neon glow
Can't you see I'm busy
What's the problem honey, I'm running out of tape
Can't you see that you're better off away
Can't you see that you're better off away
Ask me again about the glitch and if I captured it
When you're this sick it makes me rich and then I'm over it
Why can't you see we're better off going the other way
I'm the apple to your orange in the blue decay
Can't you see I'm busy
What's the story glory, I'm running out of lane
Can't you see that you're better off away
Can't you see that you're better off away
Can't you see that you're better off away
Can't you see that you're better... oh
Can't you see that you're better off away
Can't you see that you're better off away

did i say it was okay in here
still i find it hard to disappear
disconnected by the atmosphere
did i say it was okay in here
it's been interference
it's been interference, oh
it's been interference
all damn day
did i say it was okay in here
still i find it might have interfered
disconnected by the atmosphere
did i say it was okay in here
it's been interference
it's been interference, oh
it's been interference
all damn day
it's been interference
it's been interference, oh
it's been interference
all damn day

evil twin
kept him in
translucent
would you stay if i said how much
would you stay if we kept in touch
would you stay if it's never enough
you should know
they're gonna try to push you
and even if they make it seem surrounding
they're gonna try to push you around
evil twin
this just in
good won't win
would you stay if i said how much
would you stay if we kept in touch
would you stay if it's never enough
you should know
they're gonna try to push you
and even if they make it seem surrounding
they're gonna try to push you around
they're gonna try to push you around
they're gonna try to push you around
they're gonna try
they're gonna try to push you around

You say you will but you never do
Teach me about the rain
You're coat comes off you're on the run
And you ain't got much to say
You raise your hands and search the air
When I'm here in your face
You take off with you're on and off again
And leave me out in the rain
Out of state forecast / Asking for an autograph
Out of state forecast / Strip me down and make me laugh
Out of state forecast / Asking for an autograph
Out of state forecast / Kiss me on the hourglass
You say you will but you never do
Teach me about the rain
You're coat comes off, you're coat comes off
You're coat comes off, you're coat comes off
Out of state forecast / Asking for an autograph
Out of state forecast / Strip me down and make me laugh
Out of state forecast / Asking for an autograph
Out of state forecast / Kiss me on the hourglass
You're coat comes off
You're coat comes off
Out of state forecast
Out of state forecast
Kiss me on the hourglass

Anyone (Nu Wave)

i'm so tired of making bad mistakes
i'm so tired it's making me feel weak
we've been through what no one can imitate
i've missed you so let's make this evening great
and if i can't be with you i can't be with anyone
and if i can't see this through i can't be with anyone
now i'm wired without a reason to stay
on hang wire without your reasoning
we've been through and through and through
and through it all before
if it's true, our love will weather the storm
and if i can't be with you i can't be with anyone
and if i can't see this through i can't be with anyone
and if i can't be with you i can't be with anyone
and if i can't see this through i can't be with anyone
anyone, anyone
(solo)

baby, you're as gone as gone can be
you're a wrinkle in time you set the rhyme that held me
baby, you're as gone as gone can be
you're a wrinkle in time you walked the line and hurt me
shebore, shebore she's out the door
she poured it out for me
shebore, shebore she's out for more
she poured it out for me
baby, you're as far as stars can be
you're a wrinkle in time you set the line that held me
shebore, shebore she's out the door
she poured it out for me
shebore, shebore she's out for more
she poured it out for me
where did you go, where did you go
you gave me something to look toward
where did you go, where did you go, where did you go
where did you go, where did you go
you taught me that i could look forward
where did you go, where did you go, where did you go
where did you go, where did you go
you gave me something to look towards
where did you go, where did you go, where did you go
where did you go, where did you go
you gave me something to look for
where did you go, where did you go, where did you go

i guess you could call it mine
i'll have no use for it in time
because my friend, it's only temporary
i'll have no use for it in time
you, you are all across the waves
you, you are all across the waves
i guess you could call it mine
we'll have no use for it in time
because my friend, it's only temporary
we'll have no use for it in time
you, you are all across the waves
you, you are all across the waves
you, you are all across the waves
you, you are all across the waves
you, you... (are all across the waves)

and it starts again
blowing backwards
and it feels of rust and the cold
and it starts again
flowing backwards
and it soaks us all to the bone
if they ask you once..
i've worn the ring out
turn to me now
(we're) safe inside out
shapeless and round
and it draws us in
foaming sketches
and it strips us of every coat
and it stops just to
wait and listen
while we start to collapse and unfold
if they ask you once
i've worn the ring out
turn to me now
(we're) safe inside out
shapeless and round
so safe and sound
so safe and sound
so safe and sound
so safe and sound
(hoo hoo, hoo hoo..)
and it starts again
blowing backwards
and it feels of rust and the cold
if they ask you once..
i've worn the ring out
turn to me now
(we're) safe inside out
shapeless and round
