  1. [Lyric] Standing at the Threshold (Deer Tick)

    [Verse 1] You and me created something special You and me, always standing at the threshold Forgive me, I've created a monster The police said that they cannot help your daughter [Chorus] Sometimes it takes a tough man to hide Sing it soft, just like the lullaby I'll fall apart from the inside out And die [Verse 2] Kept my faith from the day that...Learn More

  2. [Lyric] What Kind of Fool Am I? (Deer Tick)

    [Verse 1] What kind of fool am I Who never fell in love? It seems that I'm the only one That I have been thinking of What kind of man is this? An empty shell A lonely cell in which An empty heart must dwell [Verse 2] What kind of lips are these That lied with every kiss That whispered empty words of love That's left me alone like...Learn More

  3. [Lyric] Sink or Swim (Deer Tick)

    [Verse 1] Time is all we pass through All the years I spent lookin' for you But now I'm here, if you're feelin' the fear And I feel it too [Bridge] All day long And if it feels so right How could we ever be wrong [Verse 2] Selfish, your gambling, your singing your songs Oh life is so short but tradition so long Now if every rich man gave a little...Learn More

  4. [Lyric] Not So Dense (Deer Tick)

    [Verse 1] Have you ever felt too far gone to be a sinner But you know yourself too well to ever be a saint Well it's okay now, the kids are making models Of God out of papier-mâché Why did you vow to take the decadent path 'Cause you smile like a devil and shut up like a trap Well it's okay, now you fixed your scruff So now you can be properly...Learn More

  5. [Lyric] Long Time (Deer Tick)

    [Verse 1] Smiles that'll disappear with the morning sun Miles of laps that we were made to run And when the lights dim, I think about myself with no one else around And I believe there's a way to describe the silence as sound And it's fading Let's smother it, so it won't burn out And I was taken by the arms that dealt the clout And you look to the...Learn More

  6. [Lyric] Ashamed (Deer Tick)

    I am the boy your mother wanted you to meet But I am broken and torn with halos at my feet And with your purest light, why don't you shine on me Well, I should've been an angel But I'm too dumb to speak Now as she gets nearer, the visions get clearer I'm kneeling, weeping, I will hold her dear Oh, If your eyes water You got your favorite number to...Learn More

  7. [Lyric] Baltimore Blues No. 1 (Deer Tick)

    [Verse 1] Kiss all your saviors goodbye Offer them up to the dead No kidding, you know who's right And whose got a price on their head [Verse 2] No doubt I'd sell you all out For a pocket full of silver and gold Way back when, when they made me one of them Don't you know they're gonna save my soul [Verse 3] I can't hang around with you like this...Learn More

  8. [Lyric] Christ Jesus (Deer Tick)

    [Verse 1] I woke up next to the king He got up, gonna fix me something And it made me sick How I can't trust him, no I can't trust him [Pre-Chorus] Said the bottom of his belly That's where he would keep me [Chorus 1] Christ Jesus As I'm floating And you get a brick And you drop it down on me Christ Jesus Have you seen us We're down on our hands...Learn More

    [Verse 1] Well, they said it was the cheapest fare at this time of year And they said, "It's nice and safe, you got nothing to fear" So I will take this old plane to get to you Yes, I will take this old plane to get to you [Verse 2] Twenty minutes late the plane crashes down And I'm one of three left amongst a priest and a clown And then all I can...Learn More

  11. [Lyric] Dirty Dishes (Deer Tick)

    [Verse 1] And I cried all night You created a stream and it flows forever It's made of dreams that didn't come true And I'm sorry, there's nothing more that I can do [Verse 2] When we get together Take apart my fantasy And when we're done We'll work on you It's sweet, lie motionless just staring at the ceiling With your back turned up against the...Learn More

  12. [Lyric] Diamond Rings 2007 (Deer Tick)

    Oh, it takes my life away To think of her as gone Now I'm running down the maze And I'm finding only wall Blowing down the flame To catch the burning wax Now I'm running out of steam Now watch this man collapse You said you wanted a better life And you will tell me what you find And then I'll stay the whole night through And I'll turn from sad to...Learn More
