Track Name: Cease Fire!
Mark another one off the list
Another girl, another miss
As unsatisfying as
Hard to resist
You gotta cease and desist
You gotta cease and desist
You gotta cease and desist
Because the one for you might not exist

CHORUS:

I'm calling
Cease fire
Cease fire
Cease fire
In my heart

Put another one in the books
She was little more than looks
I'm disappointed
But I ain't pissed
You gotta cease and desist
You gotta cease and desist
You gotta cease and desist
Because the one for you might not exist

CHORUS

I suppose it could have been worse
Not the last, not the first
I just don't know
What it's worth
You gotta call off the search
You gotta call off the search

CHORUS
Track Name: Missing a Part
i always thought that my heart
was missing a part
or some mechanical affliction

but then you took it apart
because you're so smart
and put it back in the right position

so now i'm starting to start
preparing my heart
for its maiden expedition

but before we depart
i'd like to impart to you
a humble proposition

CHORUS:

i see the moon, the moon sees me
the moon sees somebody i want to see
i see the moon, the moon sees me
the moon sees somebody i want to be

mr. god, he didn't make you
no you are all new
the first and only of your kind

and now i know that it's true
and i won't be through
until you're completely mine

CHORUS
Track Name: Moscau
i had a girlfriend once
i had a boyfriend too
that i know i don't want either
i know i know is true

i just want my own house
i can lock myself in
with the king james bible
and a fifth-gallon of gin

i could learn origami
or collect babatchka
and if i fail at these
i could always watch the...

sky spread like an ocean out my window and know
that my whole life is waiting for me in moscau
(in moscau)

if i don't know why i smoke or i
get too lonely
i could join the bonsai tree on
the manifold and see

the sky spread like an ocean out my window and know
that my whole life is waiting for me in moscau
(in moscau)

i could get hit by a train that gets
hit by a car
but i know that when i die, i won't
wander too far

i could learn cyrillic
or collect babatchka
and if i fail at these
i could always watch the

sky spread like an ocean out my window and know
that my whole life is waiting for me in moscau
(in moscau)

if i don't know why i love, or i
get too lonely
i could join the aloe vera on
the manifold and see

the sky spread like an ocean out my window and know
that my whole life is waiting for me in moscau
that my whole life is waiting for me....
Track Name: Stolichnaya
the girls are shrieking on avenue A
all spangled up like a faberge
the boys are wearing smirks and tugging skirts

looking out through the rain on my windows
i think of all the songs written out windows
and i don't envy them
and i don't want their pity
and nothing ever happens in new york city

you've got a lot of cool kids looking to get made
and they've come so far, and they aren't afraid
of whatever this tame old town's got going down

laughing loud outside in the street
life is good and youth is sweet
and i'm sitting in the corner, wondering again
what i think i'm doing and where i've been

there goes the messiah
he's out on tompkins square park
all full of stolichnaya
like a waco shark

daddy's little princess strolls along
and the boys in the band are coming on strong
it's such a thrill, let loose, all alone in this great big world

looking out through the fog on the glass
i can't count the figures walking past
lovers stumbling in a drunken embrace
i can't wait to get the hell out of this place

oh, there's the messiah
he's out on tompkins square park
all full of stolichnaya
like a waco shark

the boys are smirking on avenue B
hair stuck up like a rotary
the girls are wearing skirts so short it hurts

looking out through the static inside
i think of all the things i've never tried
but i don't envy them
and i don't want their pity
nothing ever happens in new york city
Track Name: Sometimes I Sleep
CHORUS:
i wouldn't say that i can
look forward to tomorrow
i've sown a lot that i must reap
i wouldn't say i'm a man
of constant sorrow
because sometimes i'm asleep

the one who's fastest to recover
is the one who's first to find a new lover
the oldest and unproudest of the arts

to me you looked like tokyo feels
but i was just the joke at your heels
or neck or lips or head or hands or heart

i thought you were so in love with me
but i had it all backwards as you can see
i just couldn't get that whore before the cart

i know that you would do your creeping
at night when you thought i was sleeping
and i do a lot more of that since we're apart

CHORUS

ever since you left our little team
my life has literally been a dream
i laze in a haze of lonely since you been gone

crying gave me a nasty cough
and i think i'll probably just sleep it off
wake me when you get your things off of my lawn

CHORUS
Track Name: An I
an i
hope that we don't stay together
cause your name will be my suicide letter
and when my brothers find out about it
they will tell my sisters no doubt about it
and
then they'll put you in the car
and they'll go on down to the reservoir
and when my family feels the boldest
they'll throw you in where the water's coldest
i
hope no one does what you do
because then this story would be true
i'd be dead and you'd be too
and i wouldn't have a chance to fly the coup
an i
know that we don't get along
though you lay with me while i write this song
remember me this when i wake today
it's that i'd rather be dead than too far away
we can't be together anyway
and i'd rather be dead than too far away

an i
know that we don't get along
though you lay with me while i write this song
remember me this when i wake today
it's that i'd rather be dead than too far away
we can't be together anyway
and i'd rather be dead than too far away
Track Name: Silhouette
Dear, I will die if I don’t go
I’ll pack your heart in my sac a dos
Along with all the things you’ll never know
Dear, I will die if I don’t go

Love, I’ll not live if I can’t leave
There are so many places I can’t believe
Rio and Oslo and Tel Aviv
Love, I’ll not live if I can’t leave

You must be foolish when you’re young and bold
If you want to be wise when you are old

Baby, I’ll drop if I don’t jet
I’m drawn by the deep dark silhouette
of all the things that haven’t happened yet
Baby, I’ll drop if I don’t jet

Dear, I will die if I don’t go
I’ll pack your heart in my sac a dos
Along with all the things you’ll never know
Dear, I will die if I don’t go

You must be foolish when you’re young and bold
If you want to be wise when you are old
Track Name: Not the Devil
you know i get a funny feeling
when i put a loaded gun up to my head
a little dance, a little reeling
at the little bitty though of being dead

you might just laugh to see me kneeling
here beside this little pool of red
i recommend you train your eyes upon the ceiling
there's a mirror that reflects upon the bed

CHORUS:

let me revel
as i undress you
i'm not the devil
but i possess you

some have said that i am vile
some have said that i'm a monster, not a man
why don't you stick around a while
and let me try to make you understand

i know you might not trust my smile
you even seem to be afraid to hold my hand
see my intentions are of kindness not of guile
so let me show you how it all began

CHORUS

You and I, we didn't ask to be alive
But we are, so we might as well play the part

CHORUS

you know i get a funny feeling
when i put a loaded gun up to my head
a little dance, a little reeling
at the little bitty though of being dead

i know you might not trust my smile
you even seem afraid to hold my hand
see my intentions are of kindness not of guile
so let me show how it all began
