All the porcelain horses
Sweetie broke are still
Sprawled out on my nightstand
and there's this hole I cannot fill
And no herbs
Are gonna bring louie back
Said the tea-leaf reader
Who laughed and asked
Were you having sex?
If there's no courage there's no love
I've given you my best and now
You gotta do the rest somehow
Just look at my poor son
He'll only ever know
The yearning for someone
But he'll never hold them close
But you don't have the excuses he does
You saw sweetie fall down
You saw sweetie falling down
She could have gone so far
Playing that pink guitar
Yes it's true
She could have been the next Siouxsie Sioux
But then sweetie fell down
Then sweetie fell down
Just look at my poor son
He'll only ever know
The yearning for someone
But he'll never hold them close
But you don't have the excuses he does
You saw sweetie fall down
You saw sweetie falling down

Fear of Girls

This song is written from the perspective of Elliot Rodger.
Jealous of the boys
Afraid of the girls
A banished prince
In a brutal world
Fear of girls
Fear of girls
Heaven save me
I'm getting hard
Hope against all hope
Computer light the dark
Fear of girls
Fear of girls
I didn't feel fourteen
I didn't feel anything
I was physically weak
School was hell for me
Fear of girls
Fear of girls

San Bernadino
Mommy's in the psych ward
I'm watching her dip shit dogs
San Bernadino
They're dead on the TV
And I just turned it off
San Bernadino
I'll see my bro tomorrow
In a rehab in White Plains, New York
I'll sit with and smoke cigarettes
But we won't talk much about you,
Al-Baghdadi or the holy war
San Bernadino
You're just another TV show
You're gone when the channel is changed
San Bernadino
I can't think of all those people
When my mother is locked away
San Bernadino
San Bernadino
San Bernadino

Dream again of Westfield Gardens
Kids moms smoke cigs in the parking lot
Hot sun on a Honda Odyssey
Blue jeans, sex smell, People Magazine
Dad's breath on your neck from the alcohol
A kiss goodnight then vanish into the hall
Dream again of Westfield Gardens
Pennies at the bottom of the fountain
It's not easy to recall how to somersault
It's not the world I came in
It's not the world I came in
It's not the world I came in
It's not the world I came in
No one warned me, mom
There are some things they won't tell you
There are some things they won't tell you
In my dream of Westfield Gardens
I'm always in the crowd
watching you take the escalator down
I lose you in the aisles of a cosmetics store
I'm wailing, a stranger says it's closing time
Nothing's changed, you're still the same
You can never disappoint me
Nothing's changed, you're still the same
You can never disappoint me
Westfield Gardens
