Is everything alright? I've been waiting for your letter to arrive... Some say that I'm a dreamer. Some say I'm out of touch, but it's alright. Is everything alright? I've been waiting for your letter all my life. Some say that I'm a dreamer. Some say I'm out of touch, but it's alright. Anticipating those words, pictures in my mind. There's some things that get here. Some things can get through. I can see you days ahead; they're translucent. I can stay in touch with just a single move. It's dark out. You're so far.
2.
I polarize your eyes Your pulse, it turns to shades I watch your lips turn up Oh I am still amazed It's seeping in, the scent I hover at the sound I visualize you my way You are never around You're too serious. You're too serious And it's not going to take much When can I meet you? I don't make mistakes When can I meet you? I walk through the city into your blank side I am a creature you wanna ride Rip through your boredom, swim through your tears I can't watch you die I'm never near No movement Just objects
3.
I feel in patterns Eat in abstract Talk in serial Corner you, serious Searing pain Searing pain Point to nothing Aging valulessly Wallow in time With this pain Searing pain Searing pain
4.
Radiating lust. I go all the way. Hit you where is hurts. Take it all away. When you saw me creep over, did you know what was in my hand? Now I can't let go. Tell me what you're gonna do My car is parked by the moonlight Hope we don't have far to go The trees are casting dark shadows

I am sitting people are passing by Nobody looks Nobody stops I am bleeding But they cannot I am bleeding They pick me up You are terrified of yourself I am terrified of your greed I am terrified of myself You are terrified of your greed Wanna, wanna, wanna go? Wanna take a random telephone call Wanna, wanna, wanna go? Wanna take a telephone call? In the sidewalks I grow shorter In the sidewalks I shrink always In the hospital I grow taller In the hospital I get smarter

about

This is a compilation of tracks by Nikki Nevver's former band, Modern Creatures, which disintegrated due to touring conflicts some time around 2009. Nikki plays bass, sings, and writes lyrics. Jeremiah plays bass through many pedals. Mike plays drums. It's on the goth/punk/post punk side, with touches of Bowie, Siouxsie, Joy Division, Devo, Ramones, Sisters of Mercy etc etc.
