floating backwards through an upset mind there is nothing left to you but time time, time, time, make it work (x2) why, why, why, won't it work time, time, time, make it work contorting with every falsity yearning shambles never set you free time, time, time, make it work (x2) why, why, why, won't it work time, time, time, make it work time, time, floating backwards...

the wondrous stereophonic of your supple effusing motions careening everywhere inbetweening all the while weight drifts to dust all your boarded windows now a fountain of fantastic debris ripped ruthlessly from broken frames by real feeling ghostly children grab your palm lead you in the voice of the sun shake don't shiver, shake don't shiver, break your body quake don't quiver (x4) all of your delusions are delusions of delusions and your body movements are thunderclaps in bobby pins strewn in scattershot about turning all the earth's dirt to mud your busted lips purse to kiss blood on those who forget when sky was just sky and no implications glide within hopes are tinged aggressions and thoughts are just misplacements of time shake don't shiver, shake don't shiver, break your body quake don't quiver (x4)

my heart's in my hand and my hand is pierced, and my hand's in the bag, and the bag is shut, and my heart is caught soul strings plucked on porcelain her fingers are washing away in memory novocaine again falling backwards like the spring softly awakening somewhere the birds do sing my hand's in my heart and my heart is pierced, and my heart's in my hand, and my hand is shut, and my heart, is caught soul strings plucked on porcelain her fingers are washing away in memory novocaine again falling backwards like the spring softly awakening somewhere the birds do sing birds of prey, birds of genet birds of genet, birds of prey (x4) [birds and man solo]

golden one you woke up a little freaked out a little sussed out by the winds of time by the pangs of night but now you're okay and that's how you'll stay mandala's golden (x4) you're the one who comes up when the odds are down when the lights are out you put up a fight you dream green inside and you know you're way and it's all okay mandala's golden (x4) (repeat verse 1, chorus, get trapped in C)

pangaea highway; we are the ones pangaea highway; eternal tongue soul dawn, soul dawn pangaea highway; you'll find the one open the windows in the rain what's done is done soul dawn, soul dawn pangaea highway; we are the ones and down our highway we are one and on our soul day we are one (x2) pangaea highway; our sacred guns blow us away, low looming ones soul dawn, soul dawn and washing waves of neon days prune all our thumbs caressing wind upon our face drive on the run from soul dawn, from soul dawn pangaea highway; we are the ones and down our highway we are one and on our soul day we are one here comes the soul dawn, here it comes here comes the soul dawn, here it comes...

scarpered sunset, moonlight unrest, cowering like a dog when you wake and begin to shake off the shipwreck dawning fog look into the mirror baby; don't you love what you see isn't it a miracle baby just the way you look and see oh! always be true speak for yourself be only you be no one else be just you, don't be nobody else idea's ashes, time just passes, through begrudging nights books of words and words of sound and darkness never light but look into the mirror baby; don't you love what you see isn't it a miracle baby, just the way you look and see oh! always be true speak for yourself be only you be no one else be just you, don't be nobody else no one else could take that thing away the way you take the world on every day no one else will take that thing away; promise no one else will take that thing away oh! always be true speak for yourself be only you be no one else be just you, don't be nobody else

we are heaven on dead streets the spotlight spots on you and me (repeat countlessly)

you came alone and you're on your own now where do you roam you came along and your song came from the wound where it all begins never going to end never play that cadenza you know what then you went alone and you're on your own now where do you go you went along and your song came from the wound where it all begins never going to end never play that cadenza you know what then madame golden has gone madame golden the sun you came along, you came alone (x4) we know your song, we know your song (to fade)
