I cannot believe my luck
I found a new friend
I found a new friend
I want to die
So we can go to Heaven
There's nothing bad in Heaven
There's nothing bad in Heaven
I was so alone
For so many years
For so many years
I want to die
So we can go to Heaven
There's nothing bad in Heaven
There's nothing bad in Heaven
I want
I want
I want
I want to die
So we can go to Heaven
There's nothing bad in Heaven
There's nothing bad in Heaven

Cloud Nothing

Eventually the clouds break up
and wander home
The sun pours through
as we drive away
and a wild wind blows
a wild wind blows
a wild wind blows
a wild wind blows
And now you're all I ever wanted
Because you're all I ever needed
and now you're all I ever needed
because you're all I ever wanted
Even now I'm wondering
How this will end
if you'll see it through
if it comes back to you
because we're in the ground
in the ground
in the ground
in the ground
And now you're all I ever wanted
Because you're all I ever needed
and now you're all I ever needed
because you're all I ever wanted
And now you're all I ever wanted
Because you're all I ever needed
and now you're all I ever needed
because you're all I ever wanted

Drive

I don't drive when I'm alone
I can't turn up the radio
but when I'm with you
I don't give a goddamn
you're my alpha bitch
Sister can I drive your car
Kick it into fifth and then
Maybe we can fly
Over the cliff
I think back to '99
The year that I knew you were
Changing from a man
Into a woman
Suddenly alive and potent
Anywhere's the same to me
To make you scream like God in heat
a quiet lie is something sharp like Ice
Sister can I drive your car
Kick it into fifth and then
Maybe we can fly
Over the cliff

Everything is wet shiny and wet
After a hard rain has fallen
Hundreds of
Thousands of raindrops exploding
On impact
And a rush of blood
From my heart to my head
Helps me to remember
Oh how could I forget
My heart
My heart
My heart
My heart beats me
Awake
Awake
Awake
I'm one hour behind
behind
behind
You're already at work
And I cannot call
Cannot call
I cannot call
I grind my teeth at them as the
Rain clouds pass
On a slow funeral march due
East to you
And I already miss you
and the warmth of your eyes
and I wish I could kiss you
bring your warmth to these skies
My heart
My heart
My heart
My heart beats me
Awake
Awake
Awake
I'm one hour
behind
behind
behind
You're already at work
And I cannot call

Breathers

Saw your face in a crystal ball
Years before you walked into that room
And made my heart attack
The first thing that I saw
and it was you
Strangled all the words I spoke
For years and kept them in a jar
Hidden behind a cellar door
I wish I didn't know
Tired from my teeth on edge
like razorblades stuck end to end
if I could spit I'd cut you up
If I could live I'd love you up
Wake in fright but I'm asleep
I haven't the strength to move my feet
Tangled in ways I can't express
I somehow wish you won't think less of me
I'll keep quiet I won't say
All the things you did before
I'll keep quiet I won't say
All the things you did before
I'll keep quiet I won't say
All the things you did before
I'll keep quiet I won't say
All the things you did before

You were my friend
You were my friend
But I loved you
Oh I loved you
Oh a midnight wave
You came my way
Didn't know what to do
Because I loved you
Sapphire and ruby touch
I know it's far too much
For me to ask of you
You were my friend
You were my friend
You were my friend

Rubaiyat
Rubaiyat is a three-Piece doom wop/indie rock band based out of Los Angeles, CA. Joel Heinrich sings off-kilter songs that take a darkly honest look at his brushes with love. With undercurrents of alternative rock like Pixies or Sonic Youth, Rubaiyat's lyrical content is focused on distilling moments into morsels of insight of life and love’s hedonistic and nihilistic tendencies. ... more
