I’m a scary gargoyle on a towerThat you made with plastic powerYour rhinestone eyes are like factories far away
When the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keepDrive on engines till they weep With future pixels in factories far away
So call the mainland from the beachYour heart is now washed up in bleachThe waves are rising for this time of yearAnd nobody knows what to do with the heatUnder sunshine pylons we’ll meet while rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky
I got a feeling now my heart is frozenAll the phoses and growsinHappy and after native in my soulI prayed on the unmovableYeah clinging to the Adams of rockSeasons sees just smooth signs of changeI cant see now she said taxiI that light is so I can takeStorm bring strange loyalties
I’m a scary gargoyle on a towerThat you made with plastic powerYour rhinestone eyes are like factories far away(Here we go again)(That’s electric)
Helicopters fly over the beachSame time everyday same routineClear target in the summer when skies are blueIts part of the noise when winter comesIt reverberates in my lungsNatures’ corrupted in factories far away
Your loves’ like rhinestones, falling from the skyWith future pixels in factories far awayYour loves’ like rhinestones, falling from the skyWith future pixels in factories far away

Oh joy's arise The sun has come again too hold youSailing out the doldrums of the The polyphonic prairies here, its all around youIts all around you, out here
And if the whole world is crashing downFall through space out of mind againWhere the emptiness we leave behind on warm air risingLose all the shadows far away
The falling alcohol empire, is here to hold youRuling out and haunted till it sinks
Little memories, marching onYour little feet, working the machineWill it spin, will it soreMy little dream, working the machine
Soar, like a wavethen crash and fallcloser than, i wantto who we are?

Up on melancholy hillThere's a plastic treeAre you here with meJust looking out on the dayOf another dream
Well you can't get what you wantBut you can get meSo let's set up and see'Cause you are my medicineWhen you're close to meWhen you're close to me
So call in the submarine'round the world we'll goDoes anybody knowIf we're looking out on the dayOf another dream
If you can't get what you wantThen you come with me
Up on melancholy hillA man at easeJust looking out on the dayWhen you're close to meWhen you're close to me
