chains 03:11
I've got no time for garbage bins I've got no time for you I've got no time for rusty tins All that I know is true are Rotten apples and life that's dead Inside my decaying head I've been a maggot for so long I think it's time to change I've been a maggot for so long I think I need some space I've got no time to cry or weep I've got no time to be I've got no time for rest or sleep One thing I cannot see is How I came to be this way Who cares if I don't stay? I've been a maggot for so long I think it's time to change I've been a maggot for so long I think I need some... I need to lose these chains If I die and my bones rot To earth from which they came Then let them lie and hate me not I'm not the ones to blame I have tried to change anew This is all that I can do 'cause I've been a maggot for so long I think it's time to change I've been a maggot for so long I think I need some space

The stars don't try to hide, they saturate the night Eyes are blind, sky is stark, exploring in the dark I wander in and out, forgot to bring a light Running fast through the park, exploding in the dark I saw a door, I wanted to cry, I saw the genie up in the sky Unattainable, out of reach, all I want is one more wish I saw the spirits, I know they heard, one glance is fleeting, no final word And in the morning I am blind The void devours the sun, pursue me into flight Eyes are blind, sky is stark, exploring in the dark Eyes are blind, sky is stark, exploding in the dark

jangle doll 04:18
See me in your garden, digging up some fun Feel me in your pocket, searching for the sun You don't think it's so bad, I don't think you know Scare me in your bedroom, see what I have become Hear me in your closet, looking for a gun Don't take it so hard, don't take it so I always knew you'd find me in here, in your secret sacred home Sitting next to the teddy bear, where else could I go? Taken from me, all that I see Has been taken from me this time No I'm not abnormal, although I seem to be I can touch your secrets, they're right in front of me You don't think it's so bad, I don't think you know If you look me over you'll see the scars I wear Like the careless stitching upon the teddy bear Don't take it so hard, don't take it so And though I always bounce up and down on my worn elastic rope I'll never get to the end of the carpet in the hall Taken from me, all that I see Has been taken from me this time See me in your garden, going for a stroll Hear me in your memory, I am your jangle doll

unspoken 02:53
You can't always see the way Sorrow is not here to stay You can't always understand What you're holding in your hand When the hurting gets to you There isn't much more you can do I know fingers of the pain Reach into your heart and brain When the sorrow gets you down Come around I don't always realise What goes on behind those eyes But even though you might not say I will listen anyway When the sorrow gets you down Come around
