Track Name: Cruel
well I
go out looking to be cruel
sometimes
i need cruelness
to cool this fire in me
stillness it can be a fuel
still i'm pushing through this
cold old comfort of mine
oh...

marble skin and winter cold
icy features to behold
you can see them when they walk
through the door
i pour my heat into the mold
but i feel ore instead of gold
and i don't want that base any lower

but how do you do this
the spring and the faun
yeah love comes to you
and then its gone, gone

there's two ways to be a fool now
there's two ways to do this
but take it one step at a time

light captivates you and oh
you're still and warm
mm yeah yeah
but you don't make sense no more
and how do you feel now
and whatcha do when the sun slides down
and tell me do you still want
more
more
oooh

oh and the spring and the faun
then love come to you
and when its gone, gone

there's two ways to be a fool, now
there's two ways to do this, you take it
one step at
take it one, step at
take it one, take it one step
at at time
Track Name: Hermit Crab
I am slowly turning into a hermit crab
and my legs and hand
are shrinking into my body

I don't understand
What it is and what I have
Until I haven't really got it
I been making plans
watching the minute hand
slowly moving all around the clock

I don't understand
what I think I finally have
when I haven't really got it all together

And I just may
despite what I say
go outside today

I'm feeling comfortable
here in my little shell
its suitable to me
I've got a thousand books
don't even have to look
past my TV
technology has brought me
life and friends that I can say just
who I wanna be

If you wanted my opinion man
then you, you should have asked
at a time when it actually mattered

Now I'm in this can
buried in the sand
all these broken pieces scattered

And simple tasks
like learning how to land
they only end up shattered

Now it's back into my cave
with nothing more to say
yeah I'm feeling bruised
and battered

and I just may
despite what I say
go outside today

Outside, where the air is fine
the sun is shining
I've been pining
to live my life again
(x4)
Track Name: Sexcellent
First time I met you
I tried to run away
became reflections
with nothing much to say

This slight infatuation
overwhelmed by confrontation
keeps my tongue tied to this day

No hope for heartache
cuz I don't know the cure
chemical attraction
is an unforgiving lure

I'm reeled in
and cast aside

I lay beside him
the hours slipping by
those inner thoughts abounding
betray my outer pride

Longing unarticulated yet
physically consummated
leaves my mouth and spirit dry

No chance for changing
God knows how I've tried
Common sense and tactics
losing ground against your fire

I'm pulled in
and burned alive

Exercising urges with empty night charades
There's verbal shots and chasers
but no man makes the grade
Invite them in
and then I kick them outside

(instrumental break)

Exercising urges with empty night charades
There's verbal shots and chasers
but no man makes the grade
Invite them in
and then we kick them outside
Track Name: Three Years One Thousand Days
Pure and natural
Beat up set down left to shake off rusted away
Faces are changing my memories are fading away
Beat up set down left to shake off rusted away

Oww!

Gotta get up (x4)

3 Years 1000 days
and countless hours swept away
its time for a change

Feeling the morning sadness
And the inspired dawn
Faces are drifting my memories are fading

Its time for you to go
Its time for me grow
Its time for you to go
Its time for me to grow

3 Years 1000 days
and countless hours swept away
creation is a natural sensation
which seems to be
the hardest thing for me
(x2)

3 Years 1000 days
and countless hours swept away
It’s time for a change
(x3)

Instrumental Break

3 Years 1000 days
and countless hours swept away
It’s time for a change
