Dopamine Album Lyrics
(Lyrics to the Full Album on one page)

Everything Is Easy

I drove the coast just to see you
Why'd you take so long?
And I get that you know that I miss you
And I, I know something's wrong

And I'm caught in this state
At least I hope it's a phase
And I go and I just play along
And the voice that she plays
The photos that I've erased
I know something is wrong
I know something is wrong

And then you speak to me
And everything gets easy
Like I get what I wanted
Now I'm just haunted by you constantly
And everything gets easy
Til she leaves you alone
And then you're soaked to the bone
You'll be sore
Come make it easy some more

Go ahead, take my heart up
Roll it up like a joint
Smoke me out till the feeling gets cashed
When you look in my face
It's like you forget the point

And then you speak to me
And everything gets easy
Like I get what I wanted
Now I'm just haunted by you constantly
And everything gets easy
Til she leaves you alone
And then you're soaked to the bone
You'll be sore
Come make it easy some more

You're gonna be sore
Sore, sore, sore
Sore, sore
You're gonna be sore
Sore, sore, sore
Sore, sore
La la la la, be so lonely now
Da da da da, be so lonely now

If you wanna see me
You know I'm easily found
Just climb the stairs where we used to live
Wrap your fist round my heart
Yeah, you know how it pound, pound, pound

Now I'm just haunted by you constantly
And everything gets easy
Til she leaves you alone
And then you're soaked to the bone
You'll be sore
Sore, sore, sore
Sore, sore
Come make it easy some more
Oh, oh, oh

Shipboard Cook

I wanna go to the ocean
And send a postcard of my loneliness
Forgetting you is so elusive
I run away but it's always this
You're the only one
I love
It's always been you

And I wish I was conscripted in the Merchant Marines
Shanghaied into service to sails and machines just to stay alive
And my sister keeps it simple she's a shipboard cook
She can run line, but if you take a look, it's not easy though

'Cause I'm hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me
Hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me
I'm always a ghost

I tried your gypsy tarot readings, some seance stunt
I keep an open mind but I think it's just a front
Want to believe it though

My sister says: "Forget her boy, that's all that you need"
She pitches magical elixirs, potions full of mead for a broken heart
It's too late for that

And I try to keep it simple
I try to keep it true
It's always been you
It's always been you
When you sailor boys brag about the hearts that they broke
It's all just a joke
It's all just a boast
Yeah yeah yeah, oh
I'm always a ghost

You're about as haunted as a darkened basement
I've got all the chances of a dog in a settlement
She may have her secrets, she'll never tell
I ride along without 'em on a deep sea swell
I heard there's something new, she starts to talk
She's the merry widow on the widow's walk
And they say: "What do you fear what are you running from?"
The only thing I fear is when I go numb

And I'm hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me
Hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me
Yeah yeah yeah

And I try to keep it simple
I try to keep it true
It's always been you
It's always been you
When you sailor boys brag about the hearts that they broke
It's all just a joke
It's all just a boast
Yeah yeah yeah, oh

I'm always a ghost
I'm always a ghost
I'm always a ghost
I'm always a ghost

All The Souls

I've been hiding out
In a city landscape
I met a frontier girl
With a firm handshake and she set boy don't let me down

She said all the souls that came before
Caught their justice from the ground
So you and I can't give it up, you and I can't give it up now
Standing your ground

Oh and the camera on your cell phone screen
You miss everything
Did you ever feel the pull of the cotton wool
She said boy don't let me down

She said all the souls that came before
Caught their justice from the ground
So you and I can't give it up, you and I can't give it up now
And all the souls that came before
Caught their justice from the ground
So you can I can't give it up, you and I can't give it up now
Standing your ground
Standing your ground
Standing your ground

All the souls that came before
Caught their justice from the ground
So you and I can't give it up, you and I can't give it up now
Standing your ground

All the souls that came before
Caught their justice from the ground
So you and I can't give it up, you and I can't give it up now
Standing your ground
Standing your ground
Standing your ground

Dopamine

I aspire to you rockabilly heart
All animals and engine
But I always fake the part
My side of the bed
I want push of the ledge
Cause I cant get you to feel it
Till your out there on the edge

You say give it give it give it give it to you
And then you take it till there's nothing left

So put your hands where you want to
Start screaming across the City
I'm making it pretty
But I know I mean nothing
I'm just drugs to you
Still I'm jonesing like a fiend
So line me up that Dopamine
Ah Ah Ah Nah ah ah ah....

We had to break up
But I cant get you to feel the break
Call this what you will
Just don't call it a mistake
Call it addiction
Say that we were not in love
I don't really care now
When your all I'm thinking of
Yea your all I'm thinking of

So put your hands where you want to
Start screaming across the City
I'm making it pretty
But I know I mean nothing
I'm just drugs to you
Still I'm jonesing like a fiend
So line me up that Dopamine

I go out the way that I feel
You think I'm just a fiend
I'm just a chemical in your head
I'm just that Dopamine
So come on line me up
Come on line me up
Come on line me up that Dopamine
Come on line me up that Dopamine
Come on line me up that Dopamine
Come on line me up that Dopamine
Come on line me up that Dopamine

So put your hands where you want to
Start screaming across the City
Line me up that Dopamine
And I'm jonesing like a fiend
So line me up that Dopamine
Come on line me up
Come on line me up that Dopamine
Come on line me up
Come on line me up that Dopamine

Rites Of Passage

Break ups, blowjobs and black guys
bass mans and goodbyes now
and your all freaked out
trying to find out what your life's about
In your soul there's a broken bone
Come home so far from home
And you got let down by occupied
Cant find the ties that bind

I wish I could not been through this phase
Its like Bowie says
You prettier things you go though to, to change it
Don't take the world they left behind us
Don't let them find us

Something you cant come back from
Something's lost and somethings won
Whats done is done
Move on to another one
Its Rites of Passage
Its just Rites of Passage

I used to think my thoughts would be brave
To low to be saved
All shadows and shade
So scared for even thinking
Even diamond talks have their days

Its like Bowie says
You prettier things you go though to, to change it
Don't take the world they left behind us
Don't Don't let them find us (Don't let them find us)

Something you cant come back from
Something's lost and somethings won
Whats done is done
Move on to another one

Rites of Passage (Rites of Passage)
Its just Rites of Passage (Rites of Passage)
Rites of Passage (Rites of Passage)
Its just Rites of Passage

Can't stop it coming now you
Im still a man, your gonna die

Something you cant come back from
Something's lost and somethings won
This pain's the same now for everyone
Its Rites of Passage
Its just Rites of Passage
Rites of Passage
Its Rites of Passage

(Something you cant come back from)
Break ups, Blowjobs and Black Guys)
(Something's lost and something's won)
Make the one and save the night
(Whats done is done)
Move on to another one
Rites of passage (Rites of Passage)
Its Rites of Passage (Rites of Passage)
Its just Rites of Passage (Rites of Passage)
I wish I could not been through this phase

Yea thats the one
Yea that the one
Yea thats the one
Woah oh Woah oh
Yea thats the one
Woah oh Woah oh
All Believe that all believe in one
All believe in All believe in one
Woah oh Woah in that one
In that one one one one.....

Back To Zero

Tomorrow I'm going to move and change my clothes,
Just black on black and nothing else
I'll just let it go

Oh, tonight I'm gonna scream and medicate,
'Cause it's too late to beg someone for some money
And emptiness is filling me

I'm gonna move back to zero
I'm gonna leave no doubt
I'm gonna zero you out

In the bold days
Just a substitute
For calling you, for stalling you
Gonna move back with some friends in black
Rebuild my life at 17th and Capp

I'm gonna move back to zero
I'm gonna leave no doubt
I'm gonna zero you out

I'm gonna move back to zero
And in the moment that I let go
I'm back to zero
And I take on a life of my own
I'm back to zero

And a song, a song starts to grow
Back to zero
And a song, a song
Don't let sorrow bring you down

I've been in love with her
I speak in perfect Japanese
Oh, no, no, are you gonna do it?
I think I'm through now
I'll mention all the black jeans.

Go, go, go, go, go! Whoo!

Back to zero! (I'm gonna move back to zero)
Back to zero! (I'm gonna leave no doubt. I'm gonna zero you out)

Haunted
No guarantees, sometimes it's enough to breathe
And get through one more day of missing you

Get through one more day of missing you

Something In You

Someone's basement party,
backward and cross-dressed,
she's a circus girl in a shower of oranges.
She's a fabulous mess
and I wasn't quite at my best when I said
"you look like you'll never leave California."
I felt my fingers inching towards you oh so slow.
We got room to grow.
We got room to grow.
And I want to find out all the things the chaos brings.
There's something in you I believe in,
cause there's something in you I believe in.

I can't see the floor from the clothes from the night before
and we lay in a bed that's never made.
When she lets herself go she's like no one you'll ever know.
It was true then what I said to you a long time ago.
We got room to grow.
We got room to grow.
And I'll take you in no matter what your chaos brings.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.
There's something in you I believe in.

Get Me Out Of Here

I just kicked out the floor lights, but the spotlight operator's
Shining shame on all my chosen words
and my hip parading I can see him start to sneer

Get me out of here
Get me out of here

And what started out in earnest now seems more like a jest
And who was your concrete hero, is now an uninvited guest
And the floor seats are sensing fear

Get me out of here
Get me out of here

Could be the greatest rockstar ever
if you [?]
Cause it's a wilderness
It's like a wilderness

And the band said, come to,
we're waiting up for you,
yeah they're waiting up for you,
and you're backstage in the dark. Yeah.
Can you stand the audience command?
Suit up, stand up for the band.
Well I think I lost my spark.

My damsel with the dowry,
walked into the hotel belry.
Some Junior banker's lusty conquest.
And I'm too shocked to shed a tear.

Get me out of here.
Get me out of here.
Could be the greatest rockstar ever
Who needs a new address.

Come to,
we're waiting all for you,
yeah they're waiting all for you,
is everything alright?
Can you stand the audience command?
Suit up, stand up for the band.
You're a creature of the night.
She's a creature of the night.
She's a creature of the night.

To a busted [?]
Gold dig get rich,
to leftover peas and a note on the fridge.
She took the keys and tony supremes
but the message is clear,
get me outta heeeere.

Crashing in the backstage the show's a smashing great success, thank you darling.
The band's a gateway drug and I'm a tragic mess.
But one more time the light's they fade in
This song's for you, my bashful maiden,
who's face looked like my wife
is now as cold and calculated
as that surgeon's knife

somebody's surgeon knife
somebody's surgeon knife

The band said come to,
we're waiting all for you,
yeah they're waiting all for you,
is everything alright?
Can you stand the audience command?
Suit up, stand up for the band.
You're a creature of, the greatest rockstar ever.

[?]
Cause it's hard to get it right
when you're a creature of the night.
She's a creature of the night.

Blade

I took my blade, and I cut him deep
And the blood bloomed red on his crisp white shirt
For your party guests to see
I could've run in the night
I could've slit his throat in his sleep
But I wanted you to see
The company you keep

I thought we went together like violence on a balmy night
I thought being alone with a violent man made you feel alright
Can we get away tonight?

And your father said follow the money to the source
That's what life is all about
Then you f*ck the source
Till the money comes out

You say that I'm a brute
Cause I fell faster than you
But I've got a heart that's true
And there's nothing that I won't do
To get away with you

Smile lights the slander in her eyes
She's the dark clouds swirling in my skies
And the cocktail chatter all starts to dim
Like a doppler away from me she spins
On a bloom light sea she starts to swim
She betrayed me, all now on a whim
To get away with him

I took my blade
But I couldn't get it all to drain
I could see him bleeding differently
Like teardrops in the rain

All These Things

My mom recovered - alcoholic
Gave me opera and Jackson Pollock
Said all these things, all these things are yours
She said you're not blessed, and you're not cursed
In the end you write your verse
Yeah all these things, all these things are yours

Let that feeling born in shadow
Let it make you, make you strong
And the demons you've got to carry
carry you on, and on, and on

John Coltrane's addict ways
Took us all to better days
Said all these things, all these things are yours
Am I right? Am I wrong?
In the end just write your song
Cause all these things, all these things are yours

Let that feeling born in shadow
Let it make you, make you strong
And the demons you've got to carry
Carry you on, and on, and on

Cause all these things, all these things are yours
All these things, all these things are yours
All these things, all these things are yours

What happened to you man
I've been there too
Cause all these things, all these things are yours

Let that feeling born in shadow
Let it make you, make you strong
And the demons you've got to carry
Carry you on, and on, and on

Let that feeling that you carry
Nah nah nah

Exiles

The studio's red lights are a smoke-filled screen
Trying to find the sound, I can't say what I mean
Are we breaking up the band? The naturals of dark arts
I think we like the feeling of falling apart

Well I remember everything I said
And I don't take it back
In the silence of this breakup all my cracks are exposed
And then the night goes black on black

Cause I recognize something in you
that makes me feel I'm not alone
I recognize something deeper than I've ever known
And we'll never change, we'll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We're exiles
We are exiles

A kitchen light at midnight, our [?] mates are asleep
Before she makes me go, it's about to go deep
You're gonna miss us when we grow up
I miss your sweetness and your grief
And I may be a mystery, but you were beyond belief

When Ziggy Stardust plays at a karaoke bar
And I can't remember the DJ's name
Everyone knows who you are and
We'll never change, we'll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We're exiles

We are exiles
We're exiles so
We are exiles so slow
We're exiles

Come and sing it out
You're the next best thing to the devil
Come and sing it out at the crossroads
At the crossroads, yeah

Cause I recognize something in you
that makes me feel I'm not alone
And I recognize something deeper than I've ever known
And we'll never change, we'll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We're exiles
We are exiles

Say It

If I tell you what I really want, you just say shut up
You don't really wanna hear it, no
I try to be resolute, you reduce it down to cute
I tell you you're a coward, you say I'm a prostitute
When the mascara's dry, I know you've got something to hide

Can't you just say it, say it, say it, say it one time?
Speak your mind
Say it, say it, say it, I would show up with someone else
What's a pact[?] when you're yourself

I tell you what I want, but I keep it kinda cryptic
I'm a zoetrope[?] decipher on the tip of a triptych
Tell you what you want
Tell you what I need but I hate you if you miss it
I'd like to take a stranger's face in my hands
And kiss the taste of nowhere to hide
Yeah the taste of nowhere to hide

I want you to say it, say it, say it, say it one time
Speak your mind
Say it, say it, say it - here comes the breakdown
What's a life when there's no one around?

Say it, say it, say it - what's going on here?
I swear you'll disappear if you don't say it, say it, say it
[?] or speak no more

You're just a cheap lout
You're just an escape route
But you know, you know, you know
What makes me try again

What's the matter with you?
Were their tunes you wanna do?
You won't let anyone get near
Is it the critics you fear?
Blast them all and cut off your ear
And keep it all in your head
[?] when you're dead no one else can hear
Nothing you write will ever match this
You should go back to that actress
Or the days you lived on a mattress
When everything was new
[?] cursed, and make a gift to the universe
You wanna go? And you'll see me at the show

Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it
Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it
Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it
Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it
Say what you mean
Say it, say it, say it

Mine

(B-Side)

On my mind, I passed my bedtime
No rest at the kingdom
Alone in the place, my heart is away
All that I can think of is
We should get married, we should get married
Let's stop holding back on this
And let's get carried away

Stop making a big deal out of the little things
Cause I got big deals, and I got little things
I've got everything I'm asking for but you
Stop making a big deal out of the little things
Let's get carried away
Come right now, you know where I stay

I just wanna say you're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say that you're mine, you're mine
F*ck what you heard your mine, your mine
All I'm really asking for is you
You're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say that you're mine, you're mine
F*ck what you heard you're mine, you're mine
As long as you know who you belong to

From 8 until late I think about you
You own my nights, don't know what to do
I can't get no rest, I can't get no sleep
This whole thing's gone way too deep
And we should

Stop making a big deal out of the little things
Cause I got big deals, and I got little things
I've got everything I'm asking for but you
Stop making a big deal out of the little things
Let's get carried away
Come right now, you know where I stay

I just wanna say you're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say you're mine, you're mine
F*ck what you heard you're mine, you're mine
All I'm really asking for is you
You're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say that you're mine, you're mine
F*ck what you heard you're mine, you're mine
As long as you know who you belong to

I gotta pull up on you
You're gonna make me have to pull up on you
Don't go ghost on me I'm gonna go thriller on you
I'm just I'm gonna let my hands do the talking when I see you
Baby girl I miss feeling on you
I miss everything that's real about you
And that's everything about you
That's just how I feel about you
I've been about you and I'm still about you
But we ain't finished talking
I believe it's true

All I'm really asking for is you
