Dreamboy, dreamboy
You're my only dreamboy
Dreamboy, dreamboy
You're my only dreamboy
Dreams fade into the night
but rather than die away
why won't you stay?
Dreamboy, dreamboy
You're my only dream.

In the Dark

That sound could be the sound of laughing
not the cold October wind
Maybe this feeling is the beginning
and not the end?
This cold autumn day could be the first day of spring
Any moment the songbirds could start
and I could find someone beside me
in the dark.
in the dark.

Have you ever been out west?
Because I’ve spent some time
In the high
In the high
I once killed a dear
and where he fell I took him apart
and on his heart the shine of a right life
Another dreamboy in the dark
I think he thought I’d be afraid to live my life
for the lucky and the washed
but there’s money in the walls,
there’s money in the walls
and It talks
You wanna know what it says?
I'll tell you what it says...
You don’t have to give a dog a bone
lightning tends to happen on its own
There’s a moment, you can feel it
and you know when it’s there
like how you learn a word and then it’s everywhere
You are watched then by millions
in the throes of tragic sex
There’s vomit on your safety cards
and pandas on your checks
One more name,
one more name in nightlife
I've a roommate in my body and he's pacing all night
hunting for the pieces of my formative might
My eyes glow like numbers on the front of a train
My mouth a stinking sheath of a busy blade
I've a roommate in my body and he's pacing all night
hunting for the pieces of my formative might
And all that he finds
all that he finds
is that I owe it all to Tylenol.
One more name, one more name
one more name, one more name in nightlife.

Shadow of a Cage

I’ve seen my share of boys who think they’re men
Doesn’t seem anything has changed
They come here stinking of beer and cologne
shiny boots, Bible names
But this one he was different he was softer somehow
quaking like a moth for the moon
Swaying bare-chested in the summer night
Something deep coming loose
I guess I wanted just to touch someone
but my hands are made of stone
I wanted him to see the shape of me
but my skin is made of chrome
I know it’s awful but I’m grateful to him
for making me feel like i was strong
for seeing stripes on my face
not the shadow of a cage
You and me, Ian
Wild and free

There are so many colors in the world Eric Schmalenberger
lets count them all lets start tonight!
So many colors in the world Eric Schmalenberger,
put them all together and you get white.
There’s blue like the blue of the summer sky
green like the big green trees
red like the apples that you take to school
yellow as a cheddar cheese!
Yes, so many colors in the world Eric Schmalenberger,
lets count them all, why not tonight?
So many colors in the world Eric Schmalenberger,
all of them at once and you get white.
Then of course there’s purple
Purple as the veins in your mother legs
Like the color of the vicious Corvan’s eggs
like the tiny little worms in everyone’s poo
Like the eyes of the dragons that are hunting you!
hunting YOU!!!
There are so many colors in the world Eric Schmalenberger!
Let’s count them all WE HAVE ALL NIGHT!
There are so many colors in the world Eric Schmalenberger!
Get them all together and you get white.
A blinding white

Sugar Neighbors

Wild as a young Mars I held your hand
under the halos of blue argon light
Holy rollers and a few scanning rogues
deep in the green gum of the night
An old way to the water, our bodies in that mirror
Stars were exploded in rings ‘round our legs
We stopped in shallows and below us those stars
were once again made
And for a moment I, I thought I could see
things get better than we ever thought they could be
Sugar neighbors, maybe that’s what we are
standing in the wet clothes of all of our tries
First comes the flower, and then comes the fruit
the fall and the flies
All I can give you is the name on my door
but I, I know what I need and how long I need it for

Only One Kind of Night
02:51

Some people like the warmth of incandescence
Others like the cool of white fluorescence
Many prefer the sun
but not everyone…
Now I’m just another worker in the great unknown
But I’ll tell you what’ll really rattle your bones
It’s not all the the things you’ll see
it’s the things you won’t
For all the different kinds of light
there’s only one kind of night.
Now some little critters they bioluminesce
or occasionally a rock will phosphoresce
but if you’ve gone astray
they won’t light your way
No for that you need a little technological assistance
Capacitors, adapters, the right resistance
and even with all this, you still need a switch
For all the different kinds of light
there’s only one kind of night.

Dreamboy, dreamboy
You're my only dreamboy
Dreamboy, dreamboy
You're my only dreamboy
Dreams fade into the night
but rather than die away
why won't you stay?
Dreamboy, dreamboy
You're my only dream.
