there's a virgin in my bed...

bright eyes - the trees get wheeled away

anchormen spike their blood
wear masks of mud
cucumbers cut to fit their eyes
so no one will know how tired they�ve grown
of talking and telling their lies

while your tv's change stations, scroll messages
victims and christians both drinking blood
and they pray for the destruction of all hatred
more often, just those with hate for us

cuz it hurts when you discover ones worse and ones better
to suffer or cause others to
and you can live by your conscious
now guilt is a concept you�re no longer subscribing to

there�s a virgin in my bed
and she�s taking off her dress
and i�m not sure what i am gonna do
there�s a song stuck in my head
and i can�t help singing it
but how i hope my singing pleases you
cuz i am not who i've become but what you made me into

i�ve got no health insurance
no cellular service
no disease they can cure
but we need more money to burn

so each person must learn
the dollar amount they are worth
and your pills make me dizzy
forgetting my body
i watch as it walks away
and i just keep drinking the poison and smoking the cartons
a pack and a half a day

and so when time comes to claim me
my friends and my family will gather around my grave
and they�ll believe that they knew me and loved me and miss me
and all call me by my name

so imagine what you want and then hold onto that thought
cuz that�s as close as it will ever come
and believe you�re where you are
keep acting out the part
at the end of the day, the trees all get wheeled away
and you�ll be standing alone in a blank, blank space

so believe you�re who you are
and just stay in character
but at the end of the play, the audience walks away
and i�ll be shivering cold on a well-lit stage

YAY! that was hard work....and those may be wrong...OH WELL!

i found this at a french website.....they reviewed the new bright eyes cd....i found this very humorous.....

" �Lifted or The Story is in the Soil, Keep Your Ear to the Ground� est donc l�album qui suit pas mal de disques, de ep�s, de singles, de splits, de side-projects du wonderkid d�Omaha. Un album qui a pour mission de gommer certains d�fauts � le chant emo/screamo n��tant plus tellement in � force d�exc�s -, montrer une certaine maturit� tout en conservant le charisme et essayer de renouveler un peu le genre en t�tant de nouveaux terrains."

haha....wonderkid d'omaha....emo/screamo.....ohhhh i enjoyed that.

so i'm done then. sorry for boring you all!
