Bullet With Butterfly Wings


 

Bullet With Butterfly Wings (4:16)


the world is a vampire, sent to drain
secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
and what do i get, for my pain
betrayed desires, and a piece of the game

even though i know-i suppose i'll show
all my cool and cold-like old job

despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

now i'm naked, nothing but an animal
but can you fake it, for just one more show
and what do you want, i wanna change
and what do you got, when you feel the same

even though i know i suppose i'll show
all my cool and cold-like old job

despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

tell me i'm the only one
tell me there's no other one
jesus was an only son, yeah
tell me i'm the chosen one
jesus was an only son for you

despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

tell me i'm the only one
tell me there's no other one
jesus was an only son for you

and i still believe that i cannot be saved
and i still believe that i cannot be saved
and i still believe that i cannot be saved
and i still believe that i cannot be saved


...Said Sadly (3:09)


you should know that i love you
we should love like lovers do
and i cannot help but fall for you
all over you, just a fool
now you know
darling i'll never be true
you see for so long i was blue
and if i hurt then you were too
oh honey, i always lose
now you know
lover when will you
i'm so afraid that no one cares
lover can't find you
i swear to god don't leave me here
now you know

and you know that it can't be
but no one else here really needs
ohh no, come to me
if you hurt inside
if you can't fight in me
since you ran away
girl ya know
tell me how
nothing solves

lover when will you
i'm so afraid that no one cares
lover can't find you
and no one knows what brings us here
lover
hold me now
hold me now
tell me how
nothing's wrong


You're All I've Got Tonight (3:10)


i don't care if you hurt me somemore
i don't care if you even the score
well you can knock me, i don't care
and you can mock me, i don't care
and you can lock me just about anywhere, it's all right

(D'arcy - right, right)
'cause your all i've got tonight
your all i've got tonight
your all i've got tonight
i need you, tonight
i need you, tonight

i don't care if you use me again
i don't care if you abuse me again
and you can make me, i don't care
and you can fake me, i don't care
and you can love me just about anywhere, it's all right

(D'arcy - right, right)
'cause your all i've got tonight
your all i've got tonight (ight)
your all i've got tonight
i need you, tonight
i need you, tonight

i don't wanna feel sorry for you
you don't have to make believe it's you-hoo
well you can pump me, i don't care
and you can bump me, i don't care
and you can love me just about anywhere, it's all right

(D'arcy - right, right)
'cause your all i've got tonight
your all i've got tonight (ight)
your all i've got tonight
i need you, tonight
i need you, tonight
i need you, tonight
i need you, tonight


Clones (We're All) (2:43)


i'm a clone
i know i'm fine
i'm one and more on the way
i'm two doctor
threes on the line
you'll take the incubation another day

i'm all alone so are we all
we're all clones
all i wanted one our own
all i wanted one our own

destroy the government
we're destroying time
no more problems on the way
i'm thru doctor
we don't need you're kind
we are the ones, only ones, stupid boys run ones

i'm all alone so are we all
we're all clones
all i wanted one our own
all i wanted one our own

sixers havin' problems adjusting to his clone status
got to put an armor shell
all day long me hear cries so loud
i just wanna be myself
i just wanna be myself
i just wanna be myself
be myself
be myself

i'm a clone
i know i'm fine
i'm one and more on the way
i'm two doctor
threes on the line
you'll take the incubation another day

i'm all alone so are we all
we're all clones
all i wanted one our own
all i wanted one our own

i'm all alone so are we all
we're all clones
all i wanted one our own
all i wanted one our own
i'm all alone so are we all


A Night Like This (3:36)


(James Iha singing)
say goodbye on a night like this if it's the last thing we ever do
you never looked as lost as this sometimes it doesn't even look like you
it goes dark, it goes darker still, please stay
but i watch you like i'm made of stone as you walk away

coming to find you if it takes me all night
a witch out for another girl
for always and ever is always for you
you're just the most gorgeous thing
stupid thing i ever got in the world

say hello on a day like today
say it everytime you move
the way that you look at me now
makes me wish i was you

it goes deep, it goes deeper still, this touch
and this smile and the shake of your head
and this smile and the shake of your head
i'm coming to find you if it takes me all night
can't stand you like this anymore
for always and ever is always for you
i wanted to be perfect like before
oh-ho-ho i want to change it all
oh-ho-ho i want to change

i'm coming to find you if it takes me all night
i tell you like this anymore
for always and ever is always for you
i wanted to be perfect like before

oh-ho-ho i want to change it all
oh-ho-ho i want to change
oh-ho-ho i want to change it all
oh-ho-ho i want to change


Destination Unknown (4:14)


life is so strange
when you don't know
how can you tell
where you're going to
you can't be sure
of any situation
something could change
and then you won't know

(you ask yourself)
where do we go from here
it seems to all so near
just to spy beyond i can see
i still don't know what this all means to me

(you tell yourself)
i have no where to go
i don't know what to do
and i didn't even know the time of day
i guess it doesn't matter anyway

life is so strange, destination unknown
when you don't know, you destitnation
something could change, it's unknown
and then you won't know, destination unknown

life is so strange, destination unknown
when you don't know, you destitnation
something could change, it's unknown
and then you won't know, destination unknown

(you ask yourself)
when will my time come
has it all been said and done
i know i'll leave when it's my time to go
'til then i'll carry on with what i know

life is so strange, destination unknown
when you don't know, you destitnation
something could change, it's unknown
and then you won't know, destination unknown

life is so strange, destination unknown
when you don't know, you destitnation
something could change, it's unknown
and then you won't know, destination unknown

life is so strange, life is so strange
life is so strange, life is so strange
life is so strange, life is so strange
(life is so strange)
life is so strange

life is so strange, life is so strange
life is so strange, life is so strange
life is so strange, life is so strange
life is so strange, life is so strange


Dreaming (5:11)


(D'arcy singing)
when i met you in the restaurant
you could tell i was no debutaante
you asked me what's my pleasure
move you all together
we'll have a cup of tea
