1. Kitty Litter3:47

   Letra

   The way you're dancing Makes me come alive Makes me shiver and perspire Your surreptitious glancing The way you crack a smile Nearly start a fire So move closer I wanna feel your touch So come over Come on [Chorus:] Love of mine This fortress in our heart Feels much weaker Now we're apart Love of mine This fortress in our heart Comes crashing down I need a change of skin I need a change The way you're moving Hips from side to side Makes you all that I desire Bathsheba of my choosing and I'm so unsatisfied You're all that I require So move closer Gotta feel your touch So come over Come on So move closer Gotta feel your touch So come over Come on [Chorus] I need a change of skin I need a change I need a change, I need a change of skin [x4] [Chorus]
2. Ashtray Heart3:32

   Letra

   Cenicero, mi cenicero Mi corazón, mi cenicero [X2] You are the birth and you are waste You are the one who took my place You took a jump into forever A leap of faith I could not take And it was A leap of faith I could not take A promise that I could not make A leap of faith I could not take A promise that I could not make Cenicero, mi cenicero My ashtray heart Mi corazón, mi cenicero [X4] You were alone before we met No more folorn than one could get How could we know We had found treasure How sinister and how correct And it was A leap of faith I could not take A promise that I could not make A leap of faith I could not take A promise that I could not make Cenicero, mi cenicero My ashtray heart Mi corazón, mi cenicero [X4] Cenicero, mi cenicero My ashtray heart Mi corazón, mi cenicero [X4] I tore the muscle from your chest Used it to stub out cigarettes I listened to your screams of pleasure And I watch the bed sheets turn blood red Cenicero, mi cenicero My ashtray heart Mi corazón, mi cenicero [X4] Cenicero, mi cenicero My ashtray heart Mi corazón, mi cenicero [X4]

5. Devil in the Details4:28

   Letra

   I've been wasting all my time With the devil in the details I got no energy to fight He is a fucking pantomime That devil in the details And he is fixing up to take a bite I don't see the point in try I've got the devil in the details He's gonna teach me wrong from right That fucking pantomime the devil in the details I'm gonna dance with him tonight All of my wrongs, and all my wicked ways Will come back to haunt me, come what may He wrote all the songs I hope to write someday Looks like the devil is here to stay Let me take you for a ride with the Devil in the details We'll kiss and tremble with the delight Everything is fine with the devil in the details We're gonna dance with Him tonight All of my wrongs, and all my wicked ways Will come back to haunt me, come what may For all of the songs I hope to write someday Looks like the devil is here to stay Looks like the devil is here to stay Looks like the devil is here to stay All of my wrongs, and all my wicked ways Will come back to haunt me, come what may For all of the songs I hope to write someday Looks like the devil is here to stay Looks like the devil is here to stay Looks like the devil is here to stay I've been wasting all my time With the devil and the details
6. Bright Lights3:23

   Letra

   Cast your mind back to the days, When I pretend' I was OK. I had so very much to say, About my crazy livin'. Now that I've stared into the void, So many people, I've annoyed. I have to find a middle way, A better way of givin'. So I haven't given up, But all my choices, my good luck... Appear to go and get me stuck, In an open prison. Now I am tryin' to break free, Be in a state of empathy. Find the true and inner me, Eradicate this schism. No-one can take it away from me, And no-one can tear it apart. 'Cause a heart that hurts, Is a heart that works. A heart that hurts, Is a heart that works. A heart that hurts, Is a heart that works. No-one can take it away from me, No-one can tear it apart. It may be elaborate fantasy, But it's the perfect place to start. 'Cause a heart that hurts, Is a heart that works. A heart that hurts, Is a heart that... works.
7. Speak in Tongues4:06

   Letra

   Kitty came back home from on the island But kitty came on home without a name She and me's a history for violence So I long, I burn to touch her just the same So we both can both can speak in tongues So we both can both can speak in tongues Every single sense in me is heightened There's nothing left inside to rearrange Like a slave to history and science I long, I burn to touch you just the same So we both can both can speak in tongues So we both can both can speak in tongues Until the universe is done And the course of time has run So we both can both can speak in tongues Don't let them get their way Don't let them have their way You're beautiful and so blas© So please don't let them have their way Don't fall back into the decay There is no law we must obey So please don't let them have their way Don't give in to yesterday We can build a new tomorrow, today We can build a new tomorrow, today We can build a new tomorrow, today We can build a new tomorrow, today
8. The Never-Ending Why3:23

   Letra

   The atom will implode The fragile kingdom fold The tremor becomes a quake And there's a body in the lake And as the two of us rebel Damn you all to hell I wonder if that's all there is Time will help you through But it doesn't have the time To give you all the answers to the never-ending why The sound of silence grows As the spider'' kiss is laid The tumor becomes malign But the kids are doing fine And as the two of us rebel And damn you all to hell I wonder if that's all there is Time will help you through But it doesn't have the time To give you all the answers to the never-ending why
9. Julien4:43

   Letra

   The payback is here Take a look, it's all around you You thought you'd never shed a tear So this must astound you, and must confound you Buy a ticket for the train Hide in a suitcase if you have to This ain't no singing in the rain This is a twister that will destroy you You can run but you can't hide Because no one here gets out alive Find a friend in whom you can confide Julien, you're a slow motion suicide Fallen angels in the night And everyone is barred from Heaven Just one more hit to make it right But everyone turns into seven Now that it's snowing in your brain Even ten will not placate you This ain't no killer for the pain This avalanche will suffocate you You can run but you can't hide Because no one here gets out alive Find a friend on whom you can rely Julien, you're being taken for a ride You can run but you can't hide Because no one here gets out alive Find a friend in whom you can confide Julien, you're a slow motion suicide Slow-motion suicide [x9]
10. Happy You're Gone3:50
11. Breathe Underwater3:44

    Letra

    Here comes another fall from grace I'm always falling on my face This attitude that I embrace For the love I'm trying to replace I try to kill the song 'Cause the melody's all wrong And there's a fever coming on It's hard to reconcile What I've become With a wounded child Hiding deep inside Breath underwater I'm coming up for air I wanna see another dawn Coming up for the air Sick of the slaughter I'm coming up for air 'Cause I've been floating here too long Take my ego for a ride 'Cause there's nobody by my side It's getting hard to justify And it won't be long 'till I collide My weakness is laid bare As people stop and stare But it's the last time I swear It's hard to reconcile What I've become With a wounded child Hiding deep inside Breath underwater I'm coming up for air I wanna see another dawn Coming up for air Sick of the slaughter I'm coming up for air 'Cause I've been floating here too long Start breathing Start breathing Start breathing Start breathing Breath underwater I'm coming up for air I wanna see another dawn Coming up for air Sick of the slaughter I'm coming up for air 'Cause I've been floating here too long I'm coming I'm coming I'm coming Coming up for air Coming up for air Coming up for air
12. Come Undone4:36

    Letra

    You don't know how you're coming across You don't know what you're coming across You don't know who you're coming across You don't know how you're coming across So you come undone You don't know how you're coming across Acting like you don't give a toss Walking around like you're on some kind of cross And it's a shame on you, the irony's lost When you come undone You come undone You know, you come undone You know, you know, you know You don't know how you're coming across You don't know how you're coming across And I don't think that you're aware of the cost So you come undone You come You come undone You know, you know, you know
13. Kings of Medicine4:13

    Letra

    They're picking up pieces of me While they're picking up pieces of you In a bag you will be before the day is over While you're looking for somewhere to be Or looking for someone to do Stupid me to believe that I could trust in stupid you And on the back of my hand Were directions I could understand Now that old buzzer Johnny Walker Has gone and ruined all our plans Our best mate plans Don't leave me here to pass through time Without a map or road sign Don't leave me here, my guiding light 'Cause I, I wouldn't know where to begin I ask the kings of medicine They're picking up pieces of me While they're picking up pieces of you Lying on ice you will be before the day is over So case in point, baby That you never thought it through Stupid me to believe I could depend on stupid you And on the tip of my tongue Were words that always came out wrong 'Cause they were drowned in southern comfort Left to dry out in the sun, the noon day sun Don't leave me here to pass through time Without a map or road sign Don't leave me here, my guiding light 'Cause I, I wouldn't know where to begin I ask the kings of medicine But it seems they've lost their power Now all I'm left with is the hour Don't leave me here to pass through time Without a map or road sign Don't leave me here, my guiding light 'Cause I, I wouldn't know where to begin I ask the kings of medicine But it seems they've lost their power Now all I'm left with is the hour Don't leave me here Don't leave me here, oh no I wouldn't know where to begin
