Swoon

(Ask For Joy)


Darlin', I'm connected, but you remain detached
You fix your eyes on me, your beauty is unmatched
When you touch me, baby, it's more than I can stand
I swoon, I swoon by your sweet hand (I swoon, I swoon, I swoon, I swoon)

I implore thee, come stand before me
And I will give myself to you
I implore thee, come stand before me
And I will pour myself on you

(I swoon, I swoon, I swoon, I swoon)

She slides up next to me, I lay here sedate
Just how much longer are you gonna make me wait?
She's in control of me, I come at her command
I swoon, I swoon by her sweet hand (I swoon, I swoon, I swoon, I swoon)

I implore thee, come stand before me
And I will give myself to you
I implore thee, come stand before me
And I will pour myself

Please don't stop now, baby, let's end what we began
I swoon, I swoon by your sweet hand (I swoon x 12)


Requiescat

(Oscar Wilde/Ask For Joy)


Tread lightly, she is near
Under the snow
Speak gently, she can hear
The daisies grow

All her bright golden hair
Tarnished with rust
She that was young and fair
Fallen to dust

Lily-like, white as snow
She hardly knew she was a woman, so sweetly she grew

Coffin-board, heavy stone
Lie on her breast
I vex my heart alone
She is at rest


When Fins Became Limbs

(Ask For Joy)


What took us so long
To climb out of the water
To crawl up on land
With our sons and daughters
To lay on the sand
Bright scales flashing in the sun?

Where did we go wrong
To climb out of the water
To crawl up on land
With our sons and daughters?
What need did we feel
To bring them to slaughter
To earth's muddy shores
And the evil they brought her?
There's nothing for me
The water is where we ought to be

Where did we go wrong?
Where did we go wrong?
What took us so long?
Where did we go wrong?


I Will Break Your Heart

(Ask For Joy)


I will break your heart
Break your heart in two

I will bring you pain
Time and time again

I will make you cry
And never wonder why

I will break your heart
Leave it torn apart


To-night

(Sara Teasdale/Ask For Joy)


The moon is a curving flower of gold
The sky is still and blue
The moon was the sky to hold
And I was made for you

The moon is a flower without a stem
The sky is luminous
Eternity was made for them
To-night was made for us


Peace

(Sara Teasdale/Ask For Joy)


Peace flows into me
As the tide to the pool by the shore
It is mine forever more
It shall not ebb like the sea

I am the pool of blue
That worships the vivid sky
My hopes were heaven-high
They are all fulfilled in you

I am the pool of gold
When sunset burns and dies
You are my deepening skies
Give me your stars to hold

Peace flows into me
As the tide to the pool by the shore
It is mine forever more
It shall not ebb like the sea


The Answer

(Sara Teasdale/Ask For Joy)


When I go back to earth
And all my joyous body
Puts off the red and white
That once had been so proud
If men should pass above
With false and feeble pity
My dust will find a voice
To answer them aloud

Be still, I am content
Take back your poor compassion
Joy is a flame in me
Too steady to destroy
Lithe as a bending reed
Loving the storm that sways her
I found more joy in sorrow
Than you could find in joy


Jewels

(Sara Teasdale/Ask For Joy)


If I should see your eyes again
I know how far their look would go
Back to a morning in the park
With sapphire shadows on the snow

Or back to oak trees in the spring
When I unloosed your hair and kissed
The head that lay against my knees
In the leaf shadow's amethyst

And still another shining place we would remember--
How the dun wild mountain held us on its crest
One diamond morning bright with sun

But I will turn my eyes from you
As kings and queens turn to put away
The jewels they have worn at night
And cannot wear in sober day

If I should see your eyes again
I know how far their look would go
Back to a morning in the park
With sapphire shadows on the snow


Alone

(Sara Teasdale/Ask For Joy)


I am alone in spite of love
In spite of all I take and give
In spite of all your tenderness
Sometimes I am not glad to live

I am alone as though I stood on the highest peak
Of the tired great world
About me only swirling snow
Above me endless space unfurled

With earth hidden and heaven hidden
And only my own spirit's pride
To keep me from the peace of those
Who are not lonely, having died


Here She Comes

(Ask For Joy)


Here she comes and I'm on fire
When she comes on, I hear an angel choir
I'm floatin' on a cloud and I never wanna come back down
When she comes on, I come around

When I feel her mouth
When she kiss my face
There's nothing else that matters to me
I get lost in her embrace

I need to go lay down 'cause she's spinnin' deep inside of my head
When she comes on, I'm close to dead

Here she comes again
Here she comes again
Here, here she comes

Take me up to paradise 'cause she's rushin' deep inside of my vein
When she comes on, I go insane

Here she comes again
Here she comes again
Here, here she comes
Here she comes again
Here she comes again
Here she comes
Here she comes
Here she comes


Summercrush

(Ask For Joy)


Today
Is not another ordinary day
Your kisses took my breath away
I'll take your whisper to my grave

Alive
I feel when I go deeper down inside
Like when two galaxies collide
And a million ships are lost at sea, y-yeah
Yeah, y-yeah

You're my summercrush

The way
You touched me on that August day
It left my world in disarray
I wish this dream could never end

Yeah, y-yeah

You're my summercrush

Ooh, ooh
Yeah, y-yeah

You're my summercrush


Heaven In You

(Ask For Joy)


I found my heaven in you
Never thought it could be true
Slipping down to ecstasy
Your crystal eye shines down on me
Stay with me and we will be complete

Come to me, sweet darling, don't resist
If you would grant me just one wish
Tiptoe softly to my room
Be the one that I entomb
And kiss me, kiss me, angel angel heart
And kiss me, kiss me, angel angel heart

You're my heaven
You're my

I found my heaven in you
Tied up to my bed, don't be so blue
Everything's gonna be alright
Don't you say a word tonight
And I'll kiss you, kiss you, angel angel heart

You're my heaven


My Deepest Ocean

(Ask For Joy)


I could never walk away from you
When all else fails, you pull me through
I could never push your love away
It keeps me warm, it keeps me sane
Now you come again to me
Here you come to me slow motion
You have always been my deepest ocean
You've always been my calm blue sea

La la la

Every day I get so drunk off you
It's such an easy thing to do
I'd crawl upon my hands and knees
If you'd just only ask me please
Let me come again to you
Let this be my one devotion
You have always been my deepest ocean
You've always been my calm blue sea

La la la

I will be your sacrifice
I will drink your secret potion
You have always been my deepest ocean
You've always been my calm blue sea
You own my heart and soul completely
No one can take the place of thee

La la la


Pull My String

(Ask For Joy)


I'm in need of a playmate
Can you come out to play?
I'll be your Raggedy Andy
I'll be your See 'n Say
You know I'll always been your friend
Even after all the trouble you get me in

If you pull my string, I'll say anything
You pull my string

Is that a teardrop in your eye?
I'm sorry if I made you cry
You know that life ain't always fair
And you were never one to share
When I get scared, I walk away
Because I don't know what to say
But I go back to your embrace
For you to put me in my place
Up in the house with Barbie and Ken, oh oh
Until you're ready to play with me again, yeah yeah

If you pull my string, I'll say anything
Pull my string
If you pull my string, I'll do anything
Wind me up and pull my string
If you pull my string, it's wound around my heart
Pull my string
Yeah yeah, if you pull my string, I'll be yours forever
Go on and pull my string


The Sacrifice

(Ask For Joy)


I gotta keep my mind clear
I gotta make it through
A few more hours, a few more hours to go
Then I'm comin' home to you

You got nothin' to say
You just take my pain away
You don't want anything from me
You just want me to be happy

Baby baby baby baby, yeah

Comin' down's the hardest part
It's hard to sleep when you've a broken heart
If I should die before I wake
That's the sacrifice that I'm prepared to make

You got nothin' to say
You just take my pain away
You don't want anything from me
You just want me to be happy

Baby baby baby baby, yeah

Comin' down's the hardest part
It's hard to sleep when you've a broken heart
If I should die before I wake
That's the sacrifice that I'm prepared to make

All the way up to the sky

Tomorrow's gonna be a brand new day

Fentanyl

(Ask For Joy)


Bit by bit until the patch runs dry
Another lollipop and I regain my high
I feel the waves when they start to roll
It's time to close my eyes and let it take control

Just a drop
I come out on top
A little taste and I'm fully laced

Fentanyl
You make me feel so ill
I always run right back when I feel that pull
But fentanyl
You know I love you still
It feels so wonderful I think I'm gonna cry

The foil unfolds and I'm not as cold
Another lick and I'm floating quick, whoa

Fentanyl
With you I'm me again
Seems like so long ago that I was not in pain
Oh, fentanyl
You know I love you so
It feels so wonderful I think I'm gonna cry
Bye bye, my love, goodbye
Bye bye, my love, goodbye
Bye bye, my love, goodbye


Gentle Girl

(Ask For Joy)


It's been so long
I'm barely hangin' on
You're such a gentle girl, but I want more
Oh, I want more
This is something that I need
I want you to make me bleed
Don't be so gentle, girl, 'cause I want more
Yes, I want more

A-ha, a-come on
A-ha, a-come on
A-ha, a-come on
A-ha, a-ha, a-hey, come on
Come on baby

I want you to scream out loud
It's okay, yes, you're allowed
You're such a gentle girl, I know it's hard
I know it's hard
You can let your senses go
Just close your eyes and let it flow
Does such a gentle girl want more?
Yes, she wants more
Ah, she wants more

A-ha, a-come on
A-ha, a-come on
A-ha, a-come on, yeah, yeah
A-ha, a-ha, a-hey, come on

A-ha, a-come on
A-ha, a-come on, hey, yeah yeah
A-ha, a-come on, yeah
A-ha, a-ha, a-hey, come on

You'll only feel the pain until you do it once again

A-ha, a-come on
A-ha, a-ha, a-hey, come on


Closer To Tanya

(Ask For Joy)


She's a stunner, a dark-haired beauty
She has no idea what she does to me
Walkin' right by like she just don't give a care
Always has her head in a book
But she won't give me a second look
Meanwhile all I can do is stop and stare

If I should happen to catch a smile
For a moment I feel like life's worthwhile

I wanna get closer to Tanya
I wanna get closer to Tanya
Oh baby, I wanna get closer to you

She looks so cool just smokin' her cigarette
I want her to notice me but I ain't found a way yet
If she'd just let me, I would gladly be her slave
I don't know just what it is that makes me feel this way

I gotta get a message to Tanya
I'll wait just as long as you wanna
Oh baby, I gotta get closer to you

I wanna get closer to Tanya
I wanna get closer to Tanya
Oh baby, I wanna get closer to you

I gotta get
I wanna get
I gotta get
Oh oh, I wanna get
Oh baby, I wanna get closer to you


Summer Getaway (I Got The Beach)

(Ask For Joy)


I need a summer getaway
With the top down, go flying down the highway
Tired of the games that I don't wanna play
The life I wanna live is just eighty miles an hour away

Pack my bags for the interstate
Nothin' in my rear view, breeze is feeling great
The sun, the road and the sea await
The life I wanna live is laid back and sedate

I got the beach and a bottle of Don Patrón
I got the waves and the water all to my own
I got a crush and it's makin' my head spin
I got a room at the motor inn
Close my eyes and clear my mind
Gonna leave this life behind

Smoke rings floating 'round my head
Got my baby and we're layin' in bed
Watch the birds fly overhead
The life I wanna live is one where I don't feel so dead

I got the beach and a bottle of Don Patrón
I got the waves and the water all to my own
I got a crush and it's makin' my head spin
I got a room at the motor inn
Satellite TV and an ice machine
The life I wanna live is laid back and serene

Let's run away so fast and thumb our noses at death
This city is poison, it'll rob you of breath
It will make you its slave and never set you free
That's not where I wanna be

I got the beach and a bottle of Don Patrón
I got the waves and the water all to my own
I got a crush and it's makin' my head spin
I got a room at the motor inn


Hey Tracey

(Ask For Joy)


Nothing can shake me
'Cept when she comes along
With her cotton candy kisses
And her marmalade tongue
She looks over her shoulder
Hair hanging down
Nothing can phase me
'Cept when she's around

Hey hey, Tracey
Won't you be my baby
I kneel before you
Please say yes

She's got the sweetest smile
She's got the bluest eyes
It makes me shiver
Every time she passes by
It leaves me so haunted
When i see her about
So deep inside my head
And i can't get her out

Hey hey, Tracey
Won't you be my baby
I kneel before you
Please say yes
Oh oh, Tracey
Won't you be my baby
Come here embrace me
And please say yes
Please say yes
Please say yes


Learning To Fly

(Tom Petty)


Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as it crossed the hill
And the town lit up
The world got still
I'm learning to fly, an' I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing

Well the good old days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing

Well some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
So I started out for God knows where
I guess I'll know when I get there
Learning to fly around the clouds
What goes up must come down

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
I'm learning to fly around the clouds
And what goes up must come down
I'm learning to fly
I'm learning to fly


Dragonflies

(Ask For Joy)


Dragonflies alight
On blades of grass at night
And share their innermost secrets with me
And tell me of their homes far away on the sea

Shimmering and bright
The dragonflies in flight
Circle over the sycamore tree
Humming songs to lull their nymphs to sleep

Maybe I could fly away with you
Maybe only theirs is love that's true
Knowing all the ancient ways of things
Is the burden that they carry on four wings

Maybe I could fly away with you
Maybe I could fly away with you
Maybe I could fly away with you
Maybe I could fly away


Narcan

(Ask For Joy)


Life's great when you've got the blues
And you feel there's nothing left to lose
Your hopes and dreams have all been crushed
Come take some refuge in the dust

Let me show you what to do
Hope it with a steady hand
Push down when you see it flash
And if you do a little much, then we'll hit you with some Narcan

When trouble has a hold on you
And you feel there's nothing you can do
If you're tired of running in this race
It's here to offer you a warm embrace

Let me show you what to do
Hope it with a steady hand
Push down when you see it flash
And if you do a little much, then we'll hit you with some Narcan

Life's great when you've got some blues
Escape's an option you can choose
To forget whatever weighs you down
And cast off the shackles of that dirty town
Of that dirty little town

Let it take your cares away
You've gotta hold it with a steady hand
When you do it you will feel the rush
And if you do a little much, then we'll hit you with the Narcan
Hit you with the Narcan
Hit you with the Narcan
Hit you with the Narcan


Euphoric

(Ask For Joy)


I've never felt like this before
Never knew that it could be this way
Always wondered was it something about me
'Cause nothing ever seems to take my breath away
Now I see it 'cause my eyes are open
It holds me close in a warm embrace
Squeeze me tight until I think I'm chokin'
And my head is about to explode

I love it when I feel euphoric
I love it when I feel euphoric
I love it when I feel euphoric
I love it when I feel, I love it when I feel

Like the moment when our eyes first met
Like the moment when I took your hand
Like the moment when I touched your lips
It's been a long, long time I been thinkin' 'bout this
Electric shocks in the middle of the night
Cherry kisses make me feel all right
When you call my name and you come alight
And my head is about to explode

I love it when I feel euphoric
I love it when I feel euphoric
I love it when I feel euphoric
I love it when I feel, I love it when I feel

I love it when I feel euphoric (Don't let on)
I love it when I feel euphoric (Don't let go)
I love it when I feel euphoric (Don't breathe out)
I love it when I feel, I love it when I feel (Don't lose control)
Euphoric



Nod Your Head Yes

(Ask For Joy)


Do you want me to touch you?
Nod your head yes
Do you want me to kiss you?
Nod your head yes

It's hard when you're all tied up
You must be so scared
But I promise you that everything's gonna be all right
I'll keep you safe inside
Just nod your head yes

You have such soft skin, uh huh
So smooth and white like porcelain
Nod your head yes
But it's covered in bruises
And it's cool to the touch
And you're pushin' me away
And screaming too much
You'd better nod your head yes
Nod your head yes
You'd better do what I tell you
Ooh, won't you nod your head yes
This is gonna feel so good
Nod your head yes
Do you like it when I touch you?
You'd better nod your head yes, baby

It's hard when you're all tied up
To nod your head yes
You must be so scared, terrified
To nod your head yes
But I promise you that everything's gonna be all right
So nod your head yes, baby
And no one's ever gonna hurt you
I'll keep you safe inside
Just nod your head yes


She's Bleeding From Everywhere

(Ask For Joy)


Pretty girls make me wanna crash cars
Pretty girls make me wanna take risks
Can't you see I love you so?
The evidence is on my wrists
Pretty girls always wanna see your scars

Pretty girls make me wanna lose control
Take 'em for a ride in my automobile
See how fast I make it go
Slam the brakes, the tires squeal
Didn't hear the screams until we flipped the Coupe de Ville

She's bleeding from everywhere
She's bleeding from everywhere
It flows like wine around her hair
She's bleeding from everywhere

Pretty girl, look what you made me do
You look so peaceful, just like you were asleep
Close your eyes, I'll hold your hand
The sirens pierce the quiet so deep
No one's gonna take you away from me

She's bleeding from everywhere
She's bleeding from everywhere
It flows like wine around her hair
She's bleeding from everywhere

Pretty girl, what have you done to me?
My heart is pounding and I can barely breathe
In a daze as EMS cuts away her crimson dress
And feels no pulse upon her neck
Yellow tape surrounds the wreck
Now this girl is mine for eternity
Now this girl is mine for eternity
This girl will be mine for eternity

She's bleeding from everywhere
She's bleeding from everywhere
Chainsaws cut the cool night air
She's bleeding from everywhere
She's bleeding from everywhere
She's bleeding from everywhere
Her body torn beyond repair
A crimson dress for her to wear
She's bleeding from everywhere
She's bleeding from everywhere
It flows like wine around her hair
She's bleeding from everywhere


Requiescat

(Matthew Arnold/Ask For Joy)


Strew on her roses, roses
And never a spray of yew
In quiet she reposes
Ah, would that I did too

Her mirth the world required
She bathed it in smiles of glee
But her heart was tired, tired
And now they let her be

Her life was turning, turning
In mazes of heat and sound
But for peace her soul was yearning
And now peace laps her 'round

Her cabined, ample spirit
It fluttered and failed for breath
Tonight it doth inherit
The vasty hall of death


Mystery Disease

(Ask For Joy)


He looks so pale and acts so withdrawn
Been a while since we seen him around
Can't get any sleep because he's way too sore
Don't really see him out any more

Never know when I'm about to feel the pain
Never know if will ever be the same
I'll try anything in times like these
To regulate this mystery disease

Acetominophen don't bring me no relief
It's no wonder people turn to the streets
Can't ask for anything better or they'll think you use
Don't give a fuck about a high, don't give a fuck about drug abuse

Never knowing when I'll hit the floor in pain
Never knowing if I'll ever be okay again
I'd do anything, I'd get down on my knees
To try and cure this mystery disease

Sitting up all night, rocking on the bed
Fearing that I'll be this way until I'm dead
Wond'ring to myself, should I put out a call?
Is this mystery disease any better than a case of withdrawal?


I Am Not Yours

(Sara Teasdale/Ask For Joy)


I am not yours, not lost in you
Not lost, although I long to be
Lost as a candle lit at noon
Lost as a snowflake in the sea

You love me, and I find you still
A spirit, beautiful and bright
Yet I am I, who long to be
Lost as a light is lost in light
Is lost in light
Is lost in light

Oh, plunge me deep in love
Put out my senses, leave me deaf and blind
Swept by the tempest of your love
A taper in the rushing wind

I am not yours, not lost in you
Not lost, although I long to be
Lost as a candle lit at noon
Lost as a snowflake in the sea
Lost as a snowflake in the sea


SoCal Girl

(Ask For Joy)


Born to the surf and sun
Cradled by the curves on the 101
SoCal girl
Gonna be a movie star
Got her headshot in a magazine
My SoCal girl
Pretty little superstar
She looks so good to me

Take me to where the films are made
We'll hit the dispensary on the way back to the room to get laid
She's the girl next door, she dresses herself real cute
Sign these papers and we'll start the photo shoot
My SoCal girl
My SoCal girl
She's my SoCal girl
My SoCal girl


Whirlaway

(Ask For Joy)


There she goes

There she goes, among the trees
Random as a feather's flight
To watch her hair flow in the breeze
Will energize my soul tonight
And she runs through the flowers
And chases the butterflies
And all that I can do is watch her whirl away, whirl away
Waiting for another day
Whirl away, whirl away

Lose your grip or you can lose your mind
Either way, you'll never know
You're bound to pack your bags and leave it all behind
But she's moved on to another show
While you've run through the flowers
And captured all the butterflies
And all you that you have done is watch her whirl away, whirl away
Waiting for another day
Whirl away, whirl away from me
Whirl away

Whirl away
Waiting for another day
Whirl away from me
You whirl away from me
