- "My Heart is Black"
- When you're lonely and sick of yourself
- Go find a stranger, go buy a bottle
- When you're naked and crumbling down to dust
- Go find a lover, go buy a church
- When you're out of luck and the ends ain't meetin'
- Go find a job, go steal a credit card
- When you can't sleep at night and your thoughts are reeling
- Go find a fix, go drown in the Mediterranean
- When you're feeling sorry for yourself and you need someone to blame
- Go find a doctor, go ask them for help
- When you're going through hell and the devil's in your soul
- Go find a priest, go pray to him
- [Chorus:] My heart is black, my heart is black, my heart is black...
- versus
- "Bury a Friend"
- What do you want from me? Why don't you run from me?
- What are you wondering? What do you know?
- Why aren't you scared of me? Why do you care for me?
- When we all fall asleep, where do we go?
- Come here
- Say it, spit it out, what is it exactly
- You're payin'? Is the amount cleanin' you out, am I satisfactory?
- Today, I'm thinkin' about the things that are deadly
- The way I'm drinkin' you down
- Like I wanna drown, like I wanna end me
- Step on the glass, staple your tongue (ahh)
- Bury a friend, try to wake up (ah-ahh)
- Cannibal class, killing the son (ahh)
- Bury a friend, I wanna end me
- I wanna end me
- and
- "Paint It, Black"
- I see a red door and I want it painted black
- No colors anymore I want them to turn black
- I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
- I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
- I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
- With flowers and my love both never to come back
- I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
- Like a newborn baby it just happens every day
- I look inside myself and see my heart is black
- I see my red door, I must have it painted black
- Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
- It's not easy facin' up when your whole world is black
- No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
- I could not foresee this thing happening to you
- If I look hard enough into the settin' sun
- My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes
- I wanna see your face, painted black
- Black as night, black as coal
- I wanna see the sun flying high in the sky
- [Chorus:] I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black. Yeah!

- "What Happens Afterwards"
- The night is dark and cold, the moon shines down
- There are no stars to guide our way
- No one else is coming or going tonight
- We're alone in this house of ours
- And I think we should leave soon.
- I'll be back soon, I promise
- You can count on that baby, yeah
- Baby you are mine forevermore
- The sun is shining bright
- In the sky there are stars
- There's something beautiful about them
- They're so far away, yet so close at hand
- I think I'm going to miss you tonight, baby girl
- Oh, oh! Oh! Oh!
- The sun is shining bright
- In the sky there are stars
- There's something beautiful about them
- They're so far away, yet so close at hand

- Oh, oh! Oh! Oh!

- "Possum Kingdom"
- Make up your mind
- Decide to walk with me
- Around the lake tonight by my side
- I'm not gonna lie, I'll not be a gentleman
- Behind the boathouse, I'll show you my dark secret
- I'm not gonna lie, I want you for mine
- My blushing bride
- My lover, be my lover, yeah
- Don't be afraid, I didn't mean to scare you
- So help me, Jesus
- I can promise you, you'll stay as beautiful
- With dark hair, and soft skin, forever
- Make up your mind
- And I'll promise you, I will treat you well

- "Sharp Corners Abound"
- I'm a stranger in a strange land
- Where everybody seems to be talking about you
- You're not sure if you belong or not
- And nobody gives two shits about you either
- Well maybe some of them do, but I don't care anymore..
- The world is going crazy, the world is going mad
- There's too many wars and not enough money to pay for them
- The whole planet's falling apart, yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
- All your lies and the shadows they make
- You're a king with no subjects
- A genius without any fame
- So live in a corner where sharp corners abound
- Nobody notices you there
- They don't care about you anyway...well, hardly anybody does
- They don't know you're alive
- A hundred years from now
- When your name is but faded dust
- I'll still be entrenched in the corner most likely...
- Oh, baby, oh, baby
- Don't cry because you're too young to die
- (Baby) Don't cry because you're too young to grow old
- (Baby) Don't cry because you're too young to fall in love
- versus
- "Wild World"
- Now that I've lost everything to you
- You say you wanna start something new
- And it's breaking my heart you're leaving
- Baby, I'm grieving
- But if you want to leave, take good care
- Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
- But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there
- Ooh baby baby, it's a wild world
- It's hard to get by just upon a smile
- Ooh baby baby, it's a wild world
- I'll always remember you like a child, girl
- You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do
- And it's breaking my heart in two
- Because I never want to see you sad girl
- Don't be a bad girl
- But if you want to leave, take good care
- Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
- But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware
- Beware
