Used To Know Her Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-12-25T11:13:00.000-08:00

I used to know her, I used to talk about her
Waiting for the day that she would listen
I used to know her, I used to stick up for her
Something in her smile was so bitchin'

I used to sing, I used to sing

I used to know her - used to know all about her
I used to need her - there was something about her
I used to torture her - it's the best way around her
I used to know her - now it just doesn't matter, oh yeah
Oh yeah

I used to fuck him, I used to simplify him
Something in his walk was like Jim Morrison
I used to touch him, I used to justify him
Lying to my face with my permission.

I used to sing, I used to sing

I used to fuck him - used to fucking love him
I used to need him - now I read all about him
I used to touch him - now I could never kiss him
I used to love him - now I don't even miss him, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

I used to know her - I used to terrify her
I used to terrify her, I used to terrify her
I used to sing, we used to sing

I used to know her - used to know all about her
I used to need her - there was something about her
I used to torture her - it's the best way around her
I used to know her - now she just doesn't matter, oh yeah
She just doesn't matter, oh yeah

Lonliness Is Worse Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-12-22T10:34:00.001-08:00

When you've had enough,
and you've got it bad enough
and you can't let go.
When it comes to blows,
and you start to overflow,
and you can't get home.
It's a subtle kind of cruel,
it taps my spine.
Here I'm drawing a line,
I'm asking please.
Don't you wanna
be happy with me? [x2]
I'm afraid if you
don't come around soon,
I'll turn sadder
than you ever were,
and you'll learn
lonliness is worse
you've gotta try.
December's all alone,
and he's calling
me on the phone
but he sounds so cold.
He says he loves me so,
but how would I ever know?
Certain words grow old.
It's a vicious kind of catch,
it sides me blind.
Now I'm out of my mind,
I wanna scream.
Don't you wanna
be happy with me? [x2]
I'm afraid if you
don't come around soon,
I'll turn sadder
than you ever were,
and you'll learn
lonliness is worse
you've gotta try.
Love liked me long ago,
it had a way of making
everyone the same.
But how the angels
must laugh and sigh
to hear me pleading with you,
and needing you this way.
Oh why don't you
wanna be happy with me? [x2]
I'm afraid if you
don't come around soon,
I'll turn sadder
than you ever were,
and you'll learn
lonliness is worse
you've gotta try to
stay mine all the way
Don't you wanna
be happy with me? [x2]
I'm afraid if you don't
come around soon,
I'll turn sadder than
you ever were.

She's A Brain Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-12-18T13:39:00.001-08:00

Take me, I am yours.
You don't have to beg and plead
when I'm finished with your body.
She's a brain [x3]
She is not quite what I wanted,
she is not quite what I need.
Someone said she was cerebral,
but I don't know what that means.
Please explain... She's a brain [x3]
Take me, I am yours.[x2]
She said take me I implore you
and you know that really floored me.
When she's finished with my body,
yes, she said she's going to pour me down the drain.
She's a brain [x6]

Halloween Day Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-12-15T17:26:00.000-08:00

My life, just got grim
My life, on account of him
You had a chance
You could have made it okay
Are you really gonna marry her on
Halloween Day [x2]
Your wife is torn apart
Beware of her haunted heart
I thought you had a chance (chance)
I'd thought you'd make it okay
I never really thought you'd marry her on
Halloween Day [x2]
And something's spooky in the pit of my heart
And something's stirring in the trunk of my car
Under this itching on the roof of my mouth says
Don't go out [x2]
Don't go out after, go out after
dark [x3], after dark [x2]
After dark on
Halloween Day [x2]
My life, just got grim
My life, on account of him
On account of him [x3]

Twinstar Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-12-07T19:14:00.001-08:00

Flying, when all I want to do is die.
Feels like you're flying.
Oh god I wish that I could fly.
You wanna lift me up but
you don't know and you don't see
I'm stuck in my ways,
stuck in my ways.
Breathing, when all
I wanna do is drown.
You keep on breathing,
and I keep on sinking down.
You wanna lift me up but
you don't know and you don't see
I'm stuck in my ways,
stuck in my ways.
I'm stuck in my ways.
You keep on breathing,
and I keep on sinking down.
You wanna lift me up but
you don't know and you don't see
I'm stuck in my ways,
stuck in my ways.
I'm stuck in my ways. [x2]

Morning Sad Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-12-04T18:08:00.001-08:00

Wake up and talk to me,
it's a long time since last night.
I know we said things,
the saddest things,
and I'm not sure it was wise.
When the morning sad,
you don't look back,
but you sure don't look ahead.
The morning sad,
you know the morning sad.
The morning sad, never had it
so bad, never had it so bad.
I'm writing desperate songs,
while you're fast asleep inside.
I could try to sing, until it rings,
but my voice comes out uptight.
So when the morning sad,
you don't relax no you
cannot clear your mind.
The morning sad,
you know the morning sad.
The morning sad, never had it
so bad, never had it so bad.
I tried a little, I tried
a lot. I'm not a window
and you've seen through
everything I've got.
Oh I don't think that I'll be
safe until everyone's awake.
Everybody, anybody, yeah.
So wake up and talk to me,
such a long time since last night.
I know we said things,
the maddest things
and I'm not sure who was right.
When the morning sad,
you don't attack but you're
much too weak to fight.
The morning sad,
you know the morning sad.
The morning sad, never had it
so bad, never had it so bad.
never had it so bad. [x7]

Disconnected Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-12-02T05:41:00.001-08:00

Disconnected, it's the way that I wanted it to be
The Cult Electric is my favorite record of the week
Cause I'm not feeling sweet

But I can't say that, when everyone is so judgmental
And I can't play back, all the times when you were gentle
Cause even you can't be true

It's astounding what love can do to a city
Laurel Canyon was the best place for you and me to be
I chose the curtains and I dreamed a dream of domesticity
What a freak you made of me

Now I'm on Zoloft, because you told me I was crazy
And I won't jump, cause now I know you'd never catch me
And I can't leave you, because you swore you'd never let me
But even you talk shit too

It's January when I jumped the fence of your backyard
Finish the fairy tale that you were drunk enough to start
It's kind of scary when your lover leaves you for a movie star
And I'm still in the dark

But you have trained me, to watch my back and drop my standards
And you have shamed me, since the first time you were with her
And you cant make me, love your band or buy your records
Cause you have tainted, my respect for your adventures

And you will never have the chance to trace my features (it's kind of scary when your lover leaves you)
And you will never make me feel like such a loser (it's kind of scary when your lover leaves you)
And you can have the past 'cause I'm in love with the future (it's kind of scary when your lover leaves you)

I'm in love with the future (it's kind of scary when your lover leaves you)

And I have met a boy who makes you look so shallow (it's kind of scary when your lover leaves you) (I'm in love with the future)
And there is so much time and so much space to travel (it's kind of scary when your lover leaves you) (I'm in love with the future)
And I will make the climb and I will kiss the gravel (it's kind of scary when your lover leaves you) (I'm in love with the future)

(Touch the sky) (It's kinda scary)
And I will kiss the gravel (I'm in love with the future)

(Touch the sky) (It's kinda scary)
And I will kiss the gravel

I'll touch the sky
I'll touch the sky
Watch me, watch me
I'll touch the sky
I'll touch
The sky, the sky

Blissful Queen Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-11-29T13:02:00.001-08:00

Blissful queen
Magazine
Making art
Stuck between
Limousines
Break my heart

You got me running
But I can't see you coming baby

Blissful queen
Sweet sixteen
Brand new car
Hit machine
Keep her clean
Razor sharp

You got me running
But I can't see you coming baby

Blissful queen
Velveteen
Shining star
Glistening
Wedding ring
Gone too far

Celebrate You Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-11-26T10:31:00.000-08:00

I'll wear my patent leather shoes
and my golden fleeces.
A feather in my hair for you,
and then I'll fall to pieces
at your celebration.
celebration [x2] celebrate you.
We're quiet as two mannequins,
feasting on silences.
We wait for Christmas to begin,
to see the cracking faces.
I tip my glass and toast to you;
the blood spills on the carpet
at your celebration.
celebration [x2] celebrate you.
And in the dream you held a gun.
You killed off all who hurt you,
and left me there the only one
who would not dare desert you.
I'm safe here growing in the shade,
away from all your brightness.
I lost my innocence today,
when I learned how to write this.
Tonight my nightgown is in knots.
I toss and turn in your honor.
I'll never know just what I've got
as long as you're my father.
And I'll keep searching here for you,
I'll clean out every corner.
It's not my fault [x5]

Seether Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-11-24T01:09:00.001-08:00

Seether is neither loose nor tight.
Seether is neither black nor white.
I try to keep her on a short leash.
I try to calm her down.
I try to ram her into the ground, yeah.
Can't fight the seether [x3]
I can't see her till I'm foaming at the mouth.
Seether is neither big nor small.
Seether is the center of it all.
I try to rock her in my cradle.
I try to knock her out.
I try to cram her back in my mouth, yeah.
Can't fight the seether.[x3]
I can't see her till I'm foaming at the mouth.
Keep her down, boiling water.
Keep her down, what a lovely daughter.
Oh she is not born like other girls,
but I know how to conceive her.
Oh she may not look like other girls,
but she's a snarl tooth seether. Seether!
Can't fight the seether.[x3]
I can't see her till I'm foaming at the mouth. Yeah

Innocent Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-11-20T20:51:00.001-08:00

We got a cutter in the bathroom
She kinda busted out of high school
She's seventeen and she likes the taste
It's too late
It's too late
For such an innocent face
Such an innocent face
You got an innocent
Lalalalala
You're an innocent

You can't see when the lights are down
You can't see what they're saying now
The kind of face that sparks a cash flow
You got a cover shoot in t-t-t-tokyo
You got an innocent face
You got an innocent
Lalalala
What a waste

You show up you're on the A-list
And no one knows how much you hate this
You won't eat without a gun to your head
You won't eat without a gun to your head
You're such a pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty
You're such a pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty mess

Damage Done Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-11-17T12:20:00.000-08:00

Check the damage girl
You got a car crash
A new stash
Stage fright

Who do you worship now
You got a mistress
A new bitch to get you high

Fi-fi-fi-fi-fi-find it
Or you're gonna freak out
You're fucking out of your mind

Can't you see the damage done
Is all over now
You can't cry anymore girl
Cause your tears dried up
With the needle and the score yeah

Lie-lie-lie-lie-lie-lie-like it or not
You can't stop
Such a heavenly ride
Memorize the number
Got a beep-beep-beeper
The bump on Riverside
Check my best friend out
She's burned out
But she's beautiful inside

Can't you see the damage done
Is all over now
You can't cry anymore girl
Cause your tears dried up
When you woke up on the floor
Can't you see the damage done
It's all over now
You don't try anymore girl
And I need you now
Like I never did before

These moments are sacret
You're my religion my love my life
Venice beach
Orange sunset

You say suicide
And I try to stop you girl
I try to keep you close
Try to take you home
We're two girls with one soul
Two girls with one soul
Two girls with one soul
My angel

Haleakala
Haleakala

Can't you see the damage done
It's all over now.

The born entertainers

Sound Of The Bell Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-11-11T01:37:00.001-08:00

I found a place where we can talk.
I found a way to reach a middle gound.
Keep your castle in my sandbox.
Build it up so we can burn it down.
Anyway I love my man,
love to keep him spinning
round and round.
Keep him feeding love from my hand.
Any way to turn him inside out.
I don't wanna go
down like the sunlight.
I don't wanna go
out like the moonlight.
I don't wanna be found at
the sound of the bell.
The sound of the bell [x2]
Meet me up and down again.
Every time is sweeter than the last.
Once you get a taste of impact,
you're always hungry for the crash.
I don't wanna go
down like the sunlight.
I don't wanna go
out like the moonlight.
I don't wanna be found at
the sound of the bell.
The sound of the bell [x2]
And this is everything
I have loved,
yeah I have loved.
Break my heart.
Down, I don't wanna go
down like the sunlight.
I don't wanna go
out like the moonlight.
I don't wanna be found at
the sound of the bell.
The sound of the bell [x2]
I don't wanna go
down like the sunlight.
I don't wanna go
out like the moonlight.
I don't wanna be found at
the sound of the bell.
The sound of the bell [x2]
I don't wanna be found
in the searchlight.
I don't wanna be dim
like a nightlight.

Only You Know Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-11-08T11:11:00.000-08:00

don't thank me for what you got
I've given you love I've given you too much thought
don't blame me for sinking the ship
you're a hopeless liar and a hypocrite
only you know [x4]
don't thank me for what you got
I've given you love I've given you too much thought
don't shame me for calling it quits
you're a hopeless sinner and an optimist
only you know [x4]
hey, don't hate me for what you got
I've given you drugs I've given you too much fun
don't blame me for flunking the test
I would rather think that you were honest
don't blame me cause you got caught
you've given me up, you've taken everything I got
those lies came straight from your mouth
I never dreamed that you would be a sellout
only you know [x4]
don't use me as your last crutch
I've taken you in, I've trusted you way too much
don't wear me around your wrist
you should've thought it through before you blew it
same day, same life, different person
your ghost, my pride, perfect
don't hate me for what you got
I've given you love, I've given you too much thought.
don't shame me for sinking the ship
you're a hopeless liar and a hypocrite
don't hate me for what you're not
I'm aiming your gun
I'm lining up the perfect shot
don't waste me
on something stupid like this
I would rather die than take your bullet [x5]
only you know [x8] (your bullet) (different person))

Salt Flat Epic Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-11-05T03:27:00.001-08:00

Salt lakes I saved for myself
I never thought you'd leave
Countries I've claimed to myself
I know you'll never be yourself again
But what you were is still in question

Pacific ocean's way too small
For both of us to swim
Antarctica will have to thaw
For us to meet again
And I respect the all of what is fair and worthy

And I will never feel this way about another person
And I will never feel this way again
I want to make you understand
It's not the songs and it's not the band
I'm still afraid but I'm doing the best I can

Given grace and all the saints
You'll never be near me
You got your drummer
You got your faith
I've re-defined the laws of friends
And what won't happen ever again

And I will never feel this way about another person
And I will never feel this way again
I want to make you understand
It's not the drugs and it's definitely not a man
I'm still afraid but I'm doing the best I can
Doing the best I can
I'm doing the best I can

That's enough for now.
That's enough for now.
That's enough for now.
That's enough for now.

Now I practice the art of forgetting...

Circular Trend Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-11-01T05:36:00.000-07:00

Are we gonna figure out or make it round our little circular trend
Are we gonna break it down or hang around or make it good in the end

You make me smile when I don't feel like dealing
You're suicidal and you're fresh out of feeling
You say I love you like a slap on the wrist
Do I deserve this

Are we gonna build it up or blow it out our little fire of sin
Are you gonna fuck it up or hear me out or honey will you give in
Yeah

You make denial into some kind of fashion
You want my child but you don't have the passion
You say I love you like a slap on the wrist
Do I deserve this
Yeah yeah yeah
Do I deserve this
Yeah yeah yeah
Do I deserve

You make me smile when I don't feel like dealing
You're suicidal you're fresh out of feeling
You say I love you like a kiss on the lips
Do I deserve this
Yeah yeah yeah
Do I deserve this
Yeah yeah yeah

Never Met Her Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-10-28T12:25:00.001-07:00

I've never met her, and I don't mind
I've seen her face a thousand times
she hides behind her hair
I wonder if her love is like mine
Face up, I'll face the day
three weeks, you flew away
I'll never blame her
I'll never let you make me hate a girl that way
touch down, I hear the score
I watched you slide out through the backdoor
I've never met her, but when I do
I'll thank her from saving me from you

Wolf Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-10-22T21:56:00.001-07:00

That was a time for falling;
I knew you well.
There was no time
for calling me when you fell.
This is a time to take cover
in a wishing well.
Summer was blowing
all over me when you fell.
Sailors can take all the breathing
out of the sail.
I took a trip when you needed me.
When you fell,
waters were driving me to a deep place
I closed my eyes to see your sweet face,
a Coke can beside me
I slept in hell.
Angels can be so deceiving
when they love you well.
Did you think you would be leaving me?
These are some lavender flowers
in a broken shell
(I know it's broken..)
They comfort me ever since
the day when you fell.
When you fell,
waters were dancing
in a dark place; I closed my eyes
to see your determined face.
My secret inside me,
I slept in hell.
This is a time for believing
in fairy tales.
One in which you are brought back to me.
Wolf,... I cried wolf. [x3]

Sick As Your Secrets Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-10-12T16:34:00.000-07:00

Sick
Sick of the night
Sick of the day
Sick of the sun that burns you
White
Knuckling it
Wasting away
Color yourself back in again

You're as sick as your secrets
You're as sick as your secrets
You're as sick as your secrets

Slip
Into the bath
Into the grey
Hating yourself so much it hurts
Wake
Up from a nap
Wish you were brave
But you're not that kind of person

You're as sick as your secrets
You're sick of it
You're as sick as your secrets
You're sick of it
You're as sick as your secrets
You're sick of it all

I'll take you back
I'll take you on
I want you to crack
I want you to crawl
I'll take your mistakes
I want you to break
I'll bring you home

Scared
Scared of yourself
And what you might say
So you just let the phone ring
Hey
You could come back
Back to L.A.
You used to like the summer

Officially Dead Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-10-05T14:05:00.001-07:00

I don't believe what you said
I can go anywhere
I can hold my head up
I can breathe in the air
I'm not officially dead
I still have a heart
I'm not officially dead, yeah
I still have a heart
do you remember the times
you ride my bike past my house
I wanna know you so bad
know you inside and out
you're officially dead
you don't have a heart
you're officially dead, yeah
you don't have a heart
you're officially dead
you don't have a heart
you're officially dead
(see me, feel me, touch me, please me..)
was it easy just to leave me
just to leave me dead
I know you can't let me go
it's all in your head
you want me back in your arms
back in your bed
we're officially dead
we don't have a heart
we're officially dead
we don't have a heart [x4]
officially dead
we're officially dead [x2]
officially dead [x3])

All Mine Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-10-03T03:40:00.000-07:00

I've got blood on my hands,
From this little timid life
It's just like a man,
to trust me with all his might
I've got mud on my feet,
When I kicked you back 3 weeks
If I promised to keep my mouth shut,
can I sit her while you speak
Finally mine, you're finally all mine [x2]
Where did it get me, all mine
What did it teach me, all mine
Somebody stop me,
I'm losing control again
I've got honor to earn
But I guess I lost my turn
When will I learn,
to treat you with concern
Finally mine, you're finally all mine
Where did it get me, all mine
Look what it taught me, all mine
Somebody stop me, I'm losing control
Where did it get me, all mine
Look what it taught me, all mine
Somebody stop me, I'm losing control
All mine
Where did it get me, all mine
Look what it taught me, all mine
Somebody stop me, I'm losing control again

Aurora Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-09-30T11:38:00.001-07:00

How could you be everything
We were cracking you up to be
We're cracking ourselves up too
We're cracking ourselves up to be you
Had you in my hand
Now where'd you go, Aurora?
See you up ahead,
but I don't know if I can go as far as you go
Everything keeps happening
And it's happening to me
I'm losing sight of its meaning
You blew away the meaning
I had it in my hand
Now where did it go, Aurora?
I see you up ahead,
but I don't know if I can go as far as you go
And everyone keeps telling me that this is good
I needed you to tell me it was good too
Had you in my hand
Now where'd you go, Aurora?
I see you up ahead,
but I don't know if I can go as far as you go

Disinherit Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-09-28T00:23:00.001-07:00

Cut the back, pull the stuffing
Cut the girl down to nothing
Feed the boy
Disinfect the house
Disinherit [x3]
And it's creeping up my spine
And it's clutching at my throat
And it's seizing my tongue
And I'm numb
And it's feeding on my face
And it's foaming at the mouth
And it's gnawing on my bones
And he's rolling up his sleeve
And he feeds me
And he's memorizing me
And he's making his mark [x2]
Stop the car
Still the engine
Save your best until now
Dig your nails in

Victrola Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-09-24T11:10:00.000-07:00

You're so wonderful,
I adore you, [x3] Victrola.
You're so audio.
Don't remove me to a movie,
I am grooving, Victrola.
Happy new year [x3]
You're my winter love,
I can lie here
with you so near.
We both live here.
Happy new year.
You're my sweet dear Victrola. Victrola.

Perfect Love Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-09-21T06:40:00.000-07:00

I don't want to be reckless
I don't want to be rude
I don't want to regret the stupid
Things I say to you

I don't want to be angry
I don't want to be sad
I don't want to look back on every thing we could have had

Perfect love
Perfect man
Perfect hand to hold onto
Perfect love
Perfect man
Perfect hand to pull me through
Perfect love
Perfect man
Perfect hand to guide me to
Perfect you

I want to be lovely
I want to be cute
I want to make all of your sex
Kitten dreams come true

I would like to be helpful
I would like to be pure
I would like you to love me madly
As I'm walking out the door

Perfect love
Perfect man
Perfect hand to hold onto
Perfect love
Perfect man
Perfect hand to pull me through
Perfect love
Perfect man
Perfect hand to guide me to
Perfect you

The Sun Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-09-18T19:16:00.000-07:00

Lighter than light
A feather
Floating into sight
Higher than I
Remember
I know you'll make it better
If I have to I will drive to the sea
To bring you to me

The sun
Rolling backwards
The day
Racing after
The wind
Rushing under
The night
Is the hardest time

So this is life
Together
The glamour and the grace
Brighter than bright
December
The winter on your face
And you're safe

The sun
Rolling backwards
The day
Racing after
The wind
Rushing under
The night
Is the hardest time

It's all right
It's ok
You're the master
It's all night
It's all day
It's all disaster
The saddest sound
Is down my hall
It's the saddest sound of all
I hear you scream
I hear you call

The sun
Rolling backwards
The day
Racing after
The wind
Rushing under
The night
Is the hardest time

Pretty Boys Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-09-15T08:23:00.001-07:00

Last night I dreamt you were gay
It was all you needed to say
Finally an answer for why you don't want me that way

Last year I slept in your arms
Slept right through the alarm
But now you live in Virginia, alone on a farm

Boys will be boys,
Boys will be boys,
Girls can't avoid,
Pretty boys

Last July I came untied
My trousers, my bra and my pride
You were so confident that I would let you inside

Back of the bus in Berlin
That was the Summer of Sin
Brian and Reggie pounding the bottle of gin

Liars and lovers, twin brothers never win

Boys will be boys,
Boys will be boys,
Girls can't avoid,
Pretty boys
Girls can't avoid,
Pretty boys

A Piece Of You Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-09-12T11:45:00.001-07:00

I'm just trying to live this life of mine.
The more I look the more I'm blind.
And all I ask for is peace of mind.
But all I want is a piece of you. A piece of you...
Well I lost my way today back home from work
the snow felt like dust, I felt like dirt.
Happens every time I start to search
for that long lost piece of you. A piece of you...
Well the last time I was sure of anything,
I sold my heart, I wore your ring.
And now the queen has lost her king.
And all I want is a piece of you.

Benjamin Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-09-09T03:27:00.000-07:00

Take me away, I know
I could use the rest.
I wanna clear up this mess.
I need a few days,
with my good sense.
I need a few good days.
Benjamin, no.. oh.. [x2]
Benjamin, no..
where did you go? No, no..
When you were falling from my tree,
I was not scared.
I thought you'd
meet me back up there.
It never dawned on me
you were home free.
It never dawned on me, no.
Benjamin, no.. oh.. [x2]
Benjamin, no.. where
did you go? No, no..
You said that I could
tie you down, no [x5]
Take me away, I know
I could use the rest.

Centipede Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-09-06T02:35:00.000-07:00

I can't breathe
The centipede
Is choking me
It's my one-armed monster
Daylight
No appetite
Don't wanna fight
Cause I'm
Cause I'm
Broken depressed fucked up insane
Smokin depressed wanna see you again
Broken depressed fucked up

My heart aches
I need a break
A clean escape in my pink pajamas
I'm angel-dusted
I'm ill-adjusted
I can't be trusted
Cause I'm
Cause I'm
Broken depressed fucked up insane
Smokin depressed wanna see you again
Broken depressed fucked up insane

I can't breathe
The centipede
Is killing me
The furniture's
Peculiar
It keeps me company

Broken depressed fucked up insane
Smokin depressed wanna see you again
Broken depressed fucked up insane
Broken depressed fucked up

One More Page Of Insincerity Please Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-09-03T14:58:00.001-07:00

Waste of paper and ink
Biding my time
While fighting sleep
Preventing health
Trying to satisfy myself
The day is over
I can't get over it
I must move on
When it is gone
One more page of insincerity please

I'm Taking Europe With Me Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-08-31T04:42:00.000-07:00

Sleep in late,
a day, a week a year.
Open my eyes, how'd I get here?
Order food and turn on Oprah.
Things are clean in Canada.
(I think I just might) Prefer that
(I think I just might) Repeat that
(I think I just might) Repress that
(I think I just might) [x2] Veruca
(I think I just might) Salt that
(I think I just might) Change that channel
I think I just might
Theives are on the loose again yeah
thought you were my friend

Finding what you're heart is after.
bite your tongue you fucking bastard.
(I think I just might) Prefer that
(I think I just might) Repeat that
(I think I just might) Repress that
(I think I just might) [x2] Free that
(I think I just might) Obsess that
(I think I just might) Said blow it out your ass
I think I just might
I'm taking europe with me
so there'll be one less soul to rescue.
you come with me
so they'll find two less freaks at sea
I'm taking europe with me
so there'll be one less soul to rescue
you come with me
so they'll find two less freaks at sea
...c'est tout, c'est finis

Fly Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-08-27T17:20:00.001-07:00

Twice bitten, twice baked.
Twice led down the same mistake.
Try me on a Saturday.
Try me. Try me.
Fine fool for a holiday.
Slow sun in a Spanish way.
One heart for one week of May.
Why me? Why me?
Twice given to yesterday.
Ripe for a foray with fate.
Fly me home to heaven's gate.
Fly me. Fly me. Fly.
Twice bitten, twice baked.
Twice led down the same mistake.
Try me on a Saturday.
Try me. Try me. Try me.

Closer Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-08-24T18:13:00.000-07:00

I will you to me like a river
Wash away all the war paint from your face

I want you to be happy
I want you to be safe

I waited for you like a lion
Lay you down
Weigh me down
You make my limbs ache

I want you to be near me
I want you to escape

So much closer to me
So much closer to me
So much closer to me
Closer

Summertime in the heat
Summer dive in the sheets
Waterslide into me
Come closer

My body's holding you for ransom
Gotta make it happen
Honey's gotta get paid

I want you at an angle
I want you face to face

You burn like motorcycle blue
I love the way you do it
Like it down the freeway

I need you like confession
I need you like a faith

So much closer to me
So much closer to me
So much closer to me
Closer

Summertime in the heat
Summer dive in the sheets
Waterslide into me
Come closer
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey

Spiderman '79 Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-08-20T23:51:00.001-07:00

You're so nice,
you tie me in a web
and cradle me till dawn.
You're so deadly
that I can see your breath
beneath me when you're gone.
You're so windy,
I'd like to pin you down
and tack you to the wall.
Spiderman [x2]
Spider Sunday,
you blaze up from the South
with oil on your hands.
I'm streaked in grease and grime,
and idle mouths,
you spoiled all my plans.
Spiderman [x2]
I can't take more of that. [x4]
Tiny truck stop,
you lay me in a towel,
and savour me like a lamb.
You smell of corduroy and lemon drops,
and reds pulled from a can
I dream in black and white
I've long forgot exactly who I am.
A spiderman.
Spiderman. Oh, man.
Spiderman [x3]

The Same Person Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-08-13T22:31:00.000-07:00

I am not the same as before
and I don't feel that way
anymore [x3]
no, I am not the same person

Hey Little Ghost Lyrics By Veruca Salt

2008-08-06T07:34:00.000-07:00

Hey little ghost
are you haunting me right now?
Cause I feel a little chill
and the door's not open all the way.
I love you when you're gone,
oh I love you when you're gone.
