"Stay (Prayer for the Wild-Eyed Queen"

How many years must we wake up trembling
and cracking like shots in the night?
while you were running with the neon wolves
baby, you were my fire-light
baby, you were my fire-light

Stay awhile, wild-eyed queen

sometimes hearts can get so vacant
other times they're pressed to the bone
lately I'm just sending mine out there, babe
hopin' my love could be enough
hopin' my love could be enough

Stay awhile, wild-eyed queen

Well the stars shine down on you babe
maybe they're too bright for you to see
so far away, in your abondon
baby your halo fell over me
baby your halo fell over me

Stay alive, wild-eyed queen
stay alive, and fall back on me

"Will You Ever Miss Me?"

you're not too honest
but you don't mind
and you're not so loving
yet not quite unkind

well I broke the gate
but there was no one home
you were so casual
'bout leaving me alone


hey babe I'm burning now
hey babe I'm going down

Are you gonna miss me when I'm gone?
Will you wonder who's soul is free?
Are you gonna miss me once I'm gone
or just leave me to the dirty sea?

Once I bent my knees
down to the wood
and once you hurt me
because I said you could

I told you everything
I couldn't tell myself
yeah so you stole my veils
and tried to hide yourself

hey babe don't you know
hey babe I can't let go

Are you gonna miss me when I'm gone?
Will you wonder who's soul is free?
Are you ever gonna miss me when I'm gone?
Could you find someone like me?

Well the spirit sometimes
is blind to the day
and this renegade heart
wants to fall by the way

if you wanna break me
that would be okay
'cause what really kills me
is feeling so far away
so far away...

(standed, victimized
by the heat and stars
as the twilight rises
over the cheap rusty cars
I went lookin for my angel
in the fields and the bars
now you won't even ask
to take a look at my scars
oh no Glory's gone
oh no this task is done
Oh Mercy is on the run
Oh Lord I'm gone, so gone)

hey babe this pain is real
hey babe, can't you just feel...

Are you gonna miss me when I'm gone?
Will you wonder if this soul is free?
Are you ever gonna miss me when I'm really gone?
Could you ever run back to thee?
