When I met her in 1663
I didn't know what she'd mean to me
Astral traveling, spell-casting mistress
What could I have done to predict this?
So she told me
I hold a universe in my pocket for you and me
I think you got just what it takes
You should learn the way to unlock it and then you'll see
Into me
If I was thinking, I would've wrote down her magic words
That sorta thing could come in handy in a bind
Well, is the magic in her or what she said?
And other sorts of things that have come to mind
I hold a universe in my pocket for you and me
I think you got just what it takes
You should learn the way to unlock it and then you'll see
Into me

Outta the Sky

Fairies in the attic dance 'round and 'round
The queen is dead, the deed's been done
When the birds fall outta the sky
You know who to call, I'll be your guide
Are we alone, are you lone with me?
Living it large in a hollowed-out tree
When the birds fall outta the sky
You know who to call, I'll be your guide
(solo)
When the birds fall outta the sky
You know who to call, I'll be your guide

I knew you'd come around
With your words untied but your hands bound
Don't you judge a path of self-destruction
Operating free of your seduction
Stack me up and knock me over
But I was your two, three, four-leafed clover
Silver-tonged, she's a sneaky devil
Laughing at you, get on her level
Yeah!
Serving up delicious lies
They love your lips and they love your eyes
Stack me up and knock me over
But I was your two, three, four-leafed clover
Silver-tonged, she's a sneaky devil
Laughing at you, get on her level

Fade to Grey

I know you got my letter
And it's not getting better
My lamp is low, the flame is thin
Attached within
My note of resignation
God, I need a vacation
Train stations and terminals of cognition
I've made my decision
But at the end of the day, you got no say
Because it's not your fucking brains on the wall
And you're not the one when it's all said and done
Who's jumping off the earth to fall away
I miss your voice and after
All of that it don't matter
Looming in the background
Unexpected confound
Didn't wanna forget at first
Now I know I'm the worst
Now it's looping in slow motion
My head says I'm better off
Says I'm better off dead
But at the end of the day, you got no say
Because it's not your fucking brains on the wall
And you're not the one when it's all said and done
Who's jumping off the earth to fall away
But at the end of the day, you got no say
Because it's not your fucking brains on the wall
And you're not the one when it's all said and done
Who said it's better burning out than to fade to grey
