TESTI - LYRICS
01. Megalomaniac
I hear you on the radio
You permeate my screen, its' unkind heart
If I met you in a scene aflight
I'd cut off both your wings on principle alone
On principle alone.
[Chorus]:
Hey megalomaniac
You're not Jesus
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Special, as you know yourself, maniac
Step down,
step down.
If I were your appendages
I'd hold open your eyes
So you would see
That all of us are heaven sent
There was never meant to be only one
To be only one.
[Chorus]
Yeah
You're no Jesus
You're not Elvis
...
You're no answer.
[Chorus]

02. A crow left of the murder
Allure Me
Ditch what I read
Hide what I heard.
[Chorus]:
Look I'm free
Yet? Do You get it yet?
Do You get it?
Don't get me wrong its instinctual
Even straight roads meander
Every face contains a map of...
Ever dance?
March through the air?
Waltz through the sea?
[Chorus]
On the line, indivisible
A crow left of the murder
Every face contains a map of it all.
Everything I wanted, wanted to know
Everything I wanted, wanted to see.
Allure Me
Do you get it yet?
Look, I'm free
Do you get it yet?

03. Agoraphobia
Two people touching lips
And on each other's hips
Nothing else in the world but one another.
Rhe forty-second floor
On a distant shore;
I wonder how we've strayed so far from this.
Remember when we were
Just flesh and bone? you sir,
May have forgotten how good your world can be. so,
Put down your hollow tips
And kiss your lovers lips
And know that fate is what we make of it.
Please end this, please end this,
Before this, ends us, ends us, ends us.
I'm gonna stay inside
I'm gonna stay inside for good
I'm gonna stay inside for good (repeat 8x)
I read the news today
and everything they say
Just makes me wanna stay inside and wait.
But, the better part of me knows
That waiting in the throws
is on part with reading while my eyes are closed
"what can I do?" you say,
"It's just another day
In the life of apes with ego trips!"
Put down your hollow tips
and kiss your lover's lips
And know that fate is what we make of it.
Please end this, please end this,
before this ends us, ends us, ends us

04. Talk show on mute
Take a bow
Got better
Wash 'em out with burning lies
Did it all to instigate
That's your personality.
[Pre-chorus]:
Still attracting me
Fast asleep but dreaming of your face
Enjoyment from the chemical
Comfort all America.
[Chorus]:
Come one, come all
Into 1984
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights Camera Transaction.
Quick, your time is almost up
All forget that there is more
Edging in towards the flame
Burn into obscurity.
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
The Foundation is caving in
All that should be worn with pride
I hate to say
There's so much more
There's so much more
And You found Your heart.

05. Beware! Criminal
You crawl in bed
Its three am
You smell of wine and cigarettes
A butterfly under the glass
You are beautiful
But youre not going anywhere
We do the same thing every night
I swear Ive heard this song before
I swim although Ive seen a shark
Id really be more wary of the water
You came you saw you conquered
Everyone
Im left here guessing
What went wrong
Yeah Im down but not out
And far from done…at all
Beware! criminal
A prison
With an intellect
You show your eyes selectively
You stole my glow
A seasoned thief
The blacks of my eyes are turning into opals
Today I walked
Theres nothing in there for me
But empty promises
And thoughts of all the things Im never getting back
You came you saw you conquered
Everyone
Im left here bleeding
What went wrong
Yeah Im down but not out
And far from done…at all
Beware! Criminal
Did you think I wouldn’t notice
Did you really think I wouldn’t care

06. Sick sad little world
No you're not the first to fall apart,
but always the first one to complain.
You better get careful,
or you'll compromise everything you are.
The world is a drought when out of luck.
Please come back to us or all of the above.
I'm making a choice to be out of touch.
Leave me be he said.
He said:
Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world.
Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world.
I've never had a fake confidant,
its more than I would care to explain.
But I have an open door policy,
when it comes to playing.
The world is a joke when out of love.
Please come back to us or all of the above.
I'm making a choice to be out of touch.
Leave me be he said.
He said:
Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world.
Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world.
Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world.
Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world.

07. Pistola
On the tip of my tongue an offence is poised and rearing
My intention a bullet, my body a trigger finger.
[Chorus]:
Your weapon is a Pistola
I don't need to fear, fear you
Your weapon is a Pistola.
My secret arsenal is an infinite ageless ink well
It's a fountain of youth and a patriot's weapon of choice.
[Chorus]
On the tip of my tongue an offence is poised and rearing
My intention a bullet, my body a trigger finger.
[Chorus]

08. Southern girl
Is everything a baited hook?
And are there locks on our doors?
If you're looking for an open book
Look no further, I am yours
We'll behave like animals
Swing from tree to tree
We can do anything
That turns you up and sets you free
You're an exception to the rule
You're a bona fide rarity
You're all I ever wanted
Southern girl
Could you want me?
So come outside and walk with me
We'll try each other on to see if we fit
And with our roots, become a tree
To shade what we make, under it
We'll behave like animals
Swing from tree to tree
We can do anything
That turns you up and sets you free
You're an exception to the rule
You're a bona fide rarity
You're all I ever wanted
Southern girl
Could you want me?

09. Priceless
The fact, that you
You think, you can
Speak, to me
The way, you do
It pains me to believe that you
Have never stepped out of the skin you've lived with.
And then, and if
This day, occurs
Your tongue, the taste
Will immitate
A battery
the anti-equilibrium
Your stomach becomes the floor
The look on your face was priceless!
The look on your face was priceless!
Yes, the look on your face was priceless!
That look it was
So right
Because of stairs
The attic is a place of solitaire
Isn't big enough for both of us
So who will swim in eel infested oceans?
Kiss and say goodbye
Because the tide is coming up
And in your water, water, water everywhere
And every chance to sink!
The look on your face was priceless!
The look on your face was priceless!
Yes, the look on your face was priceless!
That look it was...
So.. Priceless... Priceless.. So priceless...
Now you should know the things, you aren't
The ways you wish you were
A split second, percieve
You know the way you really look to everyone of them
I wish, that you could see because
I wish that you could laugh
The look on your face was priceless!
The look on your face was priceless!
Yes, the look on your face was priceless!
That look it was
So... Priceless...
So priceless..
Priceless...

10. Zee deveel
Nice car
Where'd you get your ride?
A trophy? Badge of honor? Overcompensation?
Price tags advertise your pride
Since when did what we pay for colored cloth gauge our gravity?
Yeah you got your little world
Picture perfect, its a pearl
Now go and try and sleep in the bed you made
You should be careful what you wish for
Cause everyone of us has a devil inside
You should be careful what you wish for
Cause all I want abounds becomes you
Nice watch
Man, you got the time?
There's never enough and it always goes too slow
Yeah you got your little world
Picture perfect, its a pearl
Now go and try and sleep in the bed you made
You should be careful what you wish for
Cause everyone of us has a devil inside
You should be careful what you wish for
Cause all of what amounts becomes you
Nice watch
Man, you got the time?
There's never enough and it always goes too slow
Price tags advertise your pride
Since when did what we pay for colored cloth gauge our gravity?
You should be careful what you wish for
Cause everyone of us has a devil inside
You should be careful what you wish for
Cause all of what amounts, becomes you

11. Made fot tv movie
I heard a word from on high
Clear like a light in the sky
It said, "quit blowing each other up"
The voice seemed so crystally clear
Some things are clean in your ear
When only blood fills your cup
Hello
I'm trying to focus, but my eyes deceive me, yeah
Focus
I'm witnessing history repeating
It fell like a tear from my eye
Flying machines so up high
Well, there goes the neighborhood
A scene set to singe innocence
Upheave, unhinge, and pit against
Like every made for TV movie should
Hello
I'm trying to focus, but my eyes deceive me, yeah
Focus
I'm witnessing history repeating
Focus, Focus
Focus (I can see now)
We are, we know, we see, we think for you, yeah
The who, the what, the when, the where, the why
We build your hill, we build you too, we see you all
Hello
I'm trying to focus, but my eyes deceive me, yeah
Focus
I'm witnessing history repeating

12. Smile lines
Met my match today
Felt the blood rushing and mingling
A curious and enigmatic thing
Spiders in my dreams
Synchronicity weaves like a web
When you were meant to be a meal
I want you bad!
I want you bad!
I understand why they say high school never ends
Never act my age
You can tell by the lines in my smile
That I have been around for awhile
So, insecurities
Are about as useful as trying
To put the pin back in the grenade
I want you bad!
I want you bad!
I understand why they say high school never ends
I want you bad!
I want you bad!
I understand why they say high school never stops
This isn't coincidence
There's no such thing
This isn't coincidence, no
This isn't coincidence
It's no such thing.
This isn't, no
I want you bad!
I want you bad!
I understand why they say high school never ends

13. Here in my room
This party is old and uninviting
Participants all in black and white
You enter in full blown technicolor
Nothing is the same after tonight
If the world had fallen apart
In a fiction worthy wind
I wouldn't change a thing
Now that you're here
love is a verb here in my room
Here in my room, here in my room
Yes love is a verb here in my room,
here in my room, here in my room
You enter and close the door behind you
Now show me the world as seen from the stars
If only the lights would dim a little
I'm weary of eyes upon my scars
Pink tractor beam into your incision
Head spinning as free as Dervishs' whirl
I came here expecting next to nothing
So thank you for being that kind of girl

14. Leech
Does it make you indie?
Does it make you proud?
To talk the world into a paper bag
spotty stain of "I'm ok, you're not ok"
Yes, men too could be on the rag
I'm over my head I need a pick-me-up
Its easy to get high when you're standing on our backs, man
Will anything ever be good enough for you?
Stand on your own, hold your water if you can
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fairing well
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fairing well
Not in my time
It isn't fair to mention, but it awes the crowd
Your fictional, plastic alibi
So take another hit, steal another line
Did you ever meet a leech who was good at goodbyes?
When you were down i always picked you up
Why didn't I recognize that everything was never fine?
I'm kicking myself that i shared spit with you
So fuck yourself
And fuck this bleeding heart of mine
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fairing well
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fairing well
Not on my time
When you were down i always picked you up
Why didn't I recognize that everything was never fine?
I'm kicking myself that i shared spit with you
So fuck yourself
And fuck this bleeding heart of mine
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fairing well
The ride's over, did you enjoy yourself?
The ride's over, fairing well
The ride's over
