It's in the water baby
It's in the pills that bring you down
It's in the water baby
It's in your bag of golden brown
It's in the water baby
It's in your frequency
It's in the water baby
It's between you and me

It's in the water baby
It's in the pills that pick you up
It's in the water baby
It's in the special way we fuck
It's in the water baby
It's in your family tree
It's in the water baby
It's between you and me

Bite the hand that feeds
Tap the vein that bleeds
Down on my bended knees

I break the back of love for you
I break the back of love for you
I break the back of love for you
I break the back of love for you

It's in the water baby
It's in the pills that bring you down
It's in the water baby
It's in your bag of golden brown
It's in the water baby
It's in your frequency
It's in the water baby
It's between you and me

Bite the hand that feeds
Tap the vein that bleeds
Down on my bended knees

I break the back of love for you
I break the back of love for you
I break the back of love for you
I break the back of love for you
I break the back of love for you
I break the back of love for you
I break the back of love for you
I break the back of love for you

Brick shithouse
["Without you I'm nothing", 1998]

Meet the brick shithouse
Meet the brick shithouse
Meet the brick shithouse
This is the brick shithouse
This is the brick shithouse
This is the brick shithouse
Meet the brick shithouse...

Don't you wish you'd never met her?
Don't you wish you'd never met her?
Don't you wish you'd never met her?

Lay him down, lie on
Lay him... down
Now your lover went and put me in the ground
I'll be watching, when he's around
Now your lover went and put me in the ground
I'll be watching...

Meet the brick shithouse
Kiss the brick shithouse
Meet the brick shithouse
Kiss

Lay him down, lie on
Lay him... down
Now your lover went and put me in the ground
I'll be watching, when he's around
Now your lover went and put me in the ground
I'll be watching...when he's around
When you cum you never make a single sound
I'll be watching, when he's around
When he's around, when he's around
He's around

Don't you wish you'd never met her?
Don't you wish you'd never met her?
Don't you wish you'd never met her?

Lay him down, lie on
Lay him... down
Now your lover went and put me in the ground
I'll be watching, when he's around
Now your lover went and put me in the ground
I'll be watching...when he's around
When you cum you never make a single sound
I'll be watching, when he's around
When he's around, when he's around
He's around

Don't you wish you'd never met her?
Don't you wish you'd never met her?
Don't you wish you'd never met her?

The bitter end
["Sleeping with ghosts", 2003]

Since were feeling so anesthetised
In our comfort zone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home

Were running out of alibis
From the second of may
Reminds me of the summer time
On this winters day

See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end

Every step we take thats synchronized
Every broken bone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home

You shower me with lullabies
As youre walking away
Reminds me that its killing time
On this fateful day

See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end

From the time we intercepted
Feels more like suicide...

See you at the bitter end

Micro cuts
["Origin of symmetry, 2001]

Hands are red with your blame
Megaphone screaming my name
Whimpers someone I should've loved
Souls weeping above

I've seen what you're doing
Destroying puppet strings
To my soul

Micro waves me insane
A Blaine cuts in your brain
Sounds like forks on a plate
Blackboard scratched with hate

I've seen what you're doing
Destroying puppet strings
To my soul
