Shoot Me Deep (long version)

Come back and shoot me, shoot me deep again

Come back and shoot me, shoot away my pain

Come back and shoot me, shoot until I'm whole Come back and shoot my soul, shoot my soul

Oh no, this isn't what you think it is Just hear me out, just because it's me You're further through the pain, and it's been tough You're lost and distant, but I tell you this I've listened to your silence long enough Just hear me out, and I'll let you be

Vain as you are, you always wanted me Of course you wanted me, you wanted me To make a song about you, and here it is There's never any need to boost your ego But time has come to let my feelings flow There's zero left to lose, and you should know The things I said I hated, I deeply miss I deeply miss the way you shook my tree

I miss the way you couldn't let me be I miss the way you shot me in the head I miss the way you kicked me out of bed I miss the way your eyes turned crimson red Without your shots, I'm a living dead

Come on and shoot me like you used to do Come on and and shoot me back, back to life Shoot me home and let me land beside you Why don't you heal me like you used to do?

You shot me down, when I left the earth

You shot me up, when I was going under You always had a way to cure my health

Please, come back, my walking wonder

Shoot me, shoot me out of rainy skies

Shoot me, shoot me out of muddy water

Shoot, shoot until I breathe again

God knows there weren't many quiet hours

We slept in cars and climbed forbidden towers Our relation graph was jagged and wild

'Like an ECG' you said and smiled Our marriage was a yearlong slingshot ride

God knows how many times we lived and died

I didn't know if I was up or down

But when I said I wanted out, I lied We made a paradise to call our own And I'm not fit for living on the outside And you're the only soul I've ever known And when you're gone, I get nothing done From dusk til' dawn, I'm orbiting my sorrow

I numb myself, like there's no tomorrow Please, shoot me back into the sun

Come on and shoot me like you used to do Come on and and shoot me back, back to life Shoot me home and let me land beside you Why don't you heal me like you used to do?

You shot me down, when I left the earth You shot me up, when I was going under You always had a way to cure my health

Please, come back, my walking wonder

Shoot me out of rainy skies

Shoot me out of muddy water

Shoot, until I breathe again

Come back and shoot me, shoot me deep again

Come back and shoot me, shoot away my pain

Come back and shoot me, shoot until I'm whole Come back and shoot my soul, shoot my soul

And we spiral in her honor

We spiral til' the holy end

Don't be scared and don't be shy

Trust our goddess, beyond the sky

If you're dying to light up her halo

You gotta' ride the spiral and let go

Take my hand and spiral now

Our goddess longs to fill your cup

Come on and spiral up, up, up

Spiral to her heaven

Spiral to her heaven

Spiral to her heaven

Don't look back and don't look down

Trust our goddess, til' the holy end

I know your love for her won't bend

I know you're hungry for her light

Trust the spiral, and hold on tight

There's no stairway to her heaven, no There's no spaceship and no easy ride

We gotta' ride the spiral, til' the end

The spiral into heaven burns so bright

Come on, we gotta surf the light

Come on, we gotta' drink her light

Trust our goddess, til' the holy end

If you're dying to ignite her flow

If you're dying to caress her crown

You gotta' kiss the spiral and let go Take my hand and spiral up

Our goddes longs to fill your cup

Come on and spiral up, up, up

Don't let our goddess down, down

Come on and spiral up, up, up

Spiral to her heaven

Spiral to her heaven

Spiral to her heaven

Too Many Saints (long version)

Your house has turned into a sanctuary

And to be honest, I find it deeply scary

I can't imagine how you live in here

You seem devoured by a ghostly sphere

You stare right through the naked walls and me

To many halos blind the eyes, I think

You're numb to change and to reality

And there are sain'ts as far as I can see

St. Mary stands beside the kitchen sink

St. Peter stands inside the empty stove

Astatue of St. Joan guards the grove

St. Joseph sleeps inside the hollow tree

And other sain'ts are hidden in the green

I see more sain'ts than I have ever seen You ask me, what do I feel, what do I see?

I see a sea of sain'ts, but it's shallow

I see you hide your head inside a halo

I see a sea of sain'ts, but no honesty

I feel you're slowly dragged away from me And I can't seem to make you understand You hold to many idols in your hand

Too many crucifixes, too many fixes

Too many roses, too many holy poses

Too much white, too much candle light

And too much space to pray your life away

Will harm your being, and you're not whole

Until you know the desert of your soul

Your life's a chain of stations, passions, fashions

Asea of sain'ts can't fill your inner hole

And you can't heal until you learn to cry

But you can't cry until you learn to die

You gotta' listen to me when I say

The time to learn to die is every day

And every angel has a hand of sand

Your head has turned into a citadel

There's something toxic going on in there

I see your earthly heaven turn to hell

You seem to be infected by a spell
