Cellophane flowers never happened for me
Been sleeping the day off
Watching the night fall
Covering nowhere
Filling my time share
There's a woman in the mirror in a firey state
As she motions to me, I start turning away
She's lifting her dress up
Trying to keep up
Oh, you'd be surprised how we race
While our lives erased
Another alone on an everyday night
Thinking the morning looking for alright
Warming the blood flow
With poison, I dont know why
Maybe the rain stops following me
Dripping the colors
Running the daylight
Over the cloud burst
Hoping they don't burst
Right before my eyes, erased
Our lives erased
We know we're lost, we're lost, we're nowhere now
We know we're lost, we're lost, we're nowhere now
Now we know we're lost and nowhere now
Maybe the rain will stop following me
With millions of colors reflected in daylight
Right on the kickdrum
Turning the sound up
Another alone on an everyday night
I think in the morning I think I'll be alright
Watching the blood flow
No wonder I don't know why
Theres a woman in the mirror in a firey state
She motions to me I start pulling away
She's lifting her dress up
All the way up
Oh, don't look surprised, erased
Our lives erased
Our lives erased

| mrgus | Posted: Mar 28, 2012 - 07:31 Anybody else hearing the Kink's "Lola" in this song or is it just me? |

Apparently your request has been granted. I love this song. The original is great, but I actually prefer this one. There's so much more irony in it, even a contempt that I enjoy. |
| Milk5Cents | Posted: Dec 21, 2011 - 21:33 Was on a plane and overheard a couple of roadies talk about the tour they were on (they were working with Elton John) and they talked about this awesome band Secret Machines. That's how I first heard about these guys. Go figure. |

| coloradojohn (Setagaya-ku, Tokyo, Japan -- 15 min. west of Shinjuku, center of the freaking Universe) | Posted: Aug 19, 2011 - 19:54 Really jamming, never fails to get the toes a tapping... Daddy's In the Doldrums (Ten Silver Drops) jams well, too, but in a different way... Go, RP, you're on a tear! |

| Gregorama (Austin, TX) | Posted: Aug 17, 2011 - 13:27 They did a great cover of Bluejay Way on the "Across the Universe" soundtrack. Great album and the movie was much better than I expected. |

| htowncoog (Texas) | Posted: Jul 20, 2010 - 14:02 I love this band's sound! Just slightly different and original.  |
| akdavey (Playa del Rey) | Posted: Mar 31, 2010 - 12:54 I'm currently watching the designers in our studio bobbing their heads to this tune. This is simply an epic song. Nothing else from the band has inspired me, though. |

Never thought of that but actually, yeah... And just the other day, my ipod randomly shuffled this after Tv on the Radio's "Wolf like me". Worked real good. |
| iscoot4peace | Posted: Sep 23, 2009 - 15:40 Oh Hell Yeah! All the way up! |

Anyway, really like it - great run of tunes tonight. The lead singer voice is on the same plane as Gordie's. I can see why you're reminded of the Hip. |
| helgigermany (Germany) | Posted: Aug 23, 2009 - 03:36 Good rocking! |
| rmgman (The Garden State) | Posted: Jul 22, 2009 - 13:12 Cool album cover, but I rated the song "acceptable". |
| Misterfixit (Nashville) | Posted: Jul 06, 2009 - 12:50 This is very likable. However, I prefer Bill Shatner's version for some obtuse and twisted raison d'etre. |

| ArbiterOfGoodTaste (Seattle, WA) | Posted: Jul 23, 2008 - 17:55 It's really a bummer that one of the trio left the band. I read that they are working on new matierial however, and I hope I like it as much as I do this. |

Very much so. I was going to say the same thing.she motions to me I start pulling away she's lifting her dress up all the way up" I do like the sound of that. |
| prickelpit96 (Hannover, Germany) | Posted: May 06, 2008 - 01:06 Great!!!  |
| michaelgmitchell (Belleville, ON Canada) | Posted: Apr 20, 2008 - 07:17 Damn, just caught the end of this. Sounded yummy. The comments below suggest thumbs-up. I'll hope to hear this again, and likely will. |
