Hush my love, don't bite
Never leave here this night
Words break, don't faint
What is love if love obeys
Let flee doves in flight
Make me stray from my light
Never leave here softly
[Chorus:]
I've seen the world upon a thousand dreams
Your eyes are one that can't see what it means
But still I love you
Like everything, it goes and goes
It goes and goes
It goes
If you break, believe me
If you take, deceive me
To the sound of one clapping hand
Is your heart so lonely
That your honor is only
As good as can be had on command
Hush my love, don't fight
Never leave here this night
[Chorus]
I've seen the world upon a thousand trees
I've seen the world upon a thousand trees
It goes and goes
It goes and goes
It goes and goes
It goes

Being Beige (World's On Fire)
I don't love you for what it's worth
So if you're leaving can you hurt
Cherry blossom, this is goodbye
Come here lately and you fly
When they say what it's worth
The world tells you first
Then you know where to hurt
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so have you heard
Lover let me please
Fall on down your knees
Lover let me please, be the one
Know the prayers to make
Flowers made to fade
And when this world to wait
It'll wait for us
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so have you heard
Yes I loved you as a matter of fact
You first are wrapped up, and that's that
Lover let me please
Fall on down your knees
You once made me smile
When you strayed
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so have you heard
The world's on fire
The world's on fire
The world's on fire, have you heard
Lover have you breathed
To make for your alief (To make for your belief)
So I'm no longer here by your side
What's to hide
The world's on fire
The world's on fire (Until I'm ready on Monday)
The world's on fire (Until I'm ready on Tuesday)
The world's on fire (Until I'm ready on Wednesday)
The world's on fire (Until I'm ready on Thursday)
The world's on fire (Until I'm ready on Friday)
The world's on fire (Until I'm ready on Saturday)
The world's on fire (Until I'm ready on Sunday)
So if you're leaving can you hurt
Cherry blossom, this is goodbye
Come here lately and you fly
When they say what it's worth
The world tells you first
Then you know where to hurt
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so have you heard
Lover let me please
Fall on down your knees
Lover let me please, be the one
Know the prayers to make
Flowers made to fade
And when this world to wait
It'll wait for us
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so have you heard
Yes I loved you as a matter of fact
You first are wrapped up, and that's that
Lover let me please
Fall on down your knees
You once made me smile
When you strayed
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so
The world's on fire, so have you heard
The world's on fire

Drum And Fife
Away, away foul dream
You're gonna listen now to me
No rules or in-betweens
You're gonna listen now to me
Waste all your time
Find another kind of boy, whoa
A face upon the line
Offensive I don't care to hold
Come on along on an eastern shore
Come on along, you're mine
Come on along on a winter's morn
Come on along, you're mine
Mine
Inside
The drum and fife is steel
Racing scene to scene
To break this best in me
'Cause I will bang this drum to my dying day
In my affection, too
You're gonna listen now to me
But stop what's left as rule
You're gonna listen now to me
Come on along on an eastern shore
Come on along, you're mine
Come on along on a winter's morn
Come on along, you're mine
Mine
Inside
The drum and fife is steel
Racing scene to scene
To break this beast in me
To remedy this waiting
'Cause I will bang to my dying
I will bang this drum to my dying
I will bang this drum to my dying day
'Cause I will bang this drum to my dying day
Don't you ever be afraid
Don't you ever be afraid
Don't you ever be afraid
No more, no more, no more
'Cause I will bang this drum to my dying day
Don't you ever be afraid
'Cause I will bang this drum to my dying
I will bang this drum to my dying
I will bang this drum to my dying day
'Cause I will bang this drum
You're gonna listen now to me

Anti-Hero
Never been kissed by a girl like you
All I wanna, I wanna do
Love me baby, love me true, ooh
Everything I want, I had to have
And with madness, it's love that's sad
Trust little baby, oh can't you see?
Ooh, it's me
Ode to the alien weekend
Wednesday's ring starts to turn slow
You said show them one weakness
Then fill that happy heart
With a girl like you
All I wanna, I wanna do
Love me baby, oh can't you please?
Ooh, with a girl like you
Thrown with a girl like you
Ooh, with a girl like you
Times that preach how it's been
As the straw lives on without
You're so alone, they'll let you in
Ooh, if they let you in
Ode to the alien weekend
Stoned where it starts to burn slow
You said show them one weakness
Then give my hand a hold
With a girl like you
All I wanna, I wanna do
To love me baby, oh can't you please?
Ooh, with a girl like you
Thrown with a girl like you
Ooh, with a girl like you
Thrown with a girl like you
You can say, I will listen
You can swear, don't mind
You can blot out tradition
Till I'm bored
With a girl like you
With a girl like you, ooh
With a girl like you, ooh, ooh
I'm so alive with a girl like you
I'm so alive with a girl like you
Trust little baby, can't you please?
Thrown a girl like you
All I wanna, I wanna do
Love me baby, love me true, ooh
Everything I want, I had to have
And with madness, it's love that's sad
Trust little baby, oh can't you see?
Ooh, it's me
Ode to the alien weekend
Wednesday's ring starts to turn slow
You said show them one weakness
Then fill that happy heart
With a girl like you

Monuments to an Elegy is the ninth studio album by American alternative rock band The Smashing Pumpkins, released on December 9, 2014 on Martha's Music. Band leader Billy Corgan noted that—like the band's previous release, Oceania—the album is part of the 34-track music project, Teargarden by Kaleidyscope. [citation needed] It turned out to be the last part of the series due to cancellation of the project in 2018. Corgan and guitarist Jeff Schroeder recorded the album as a duo, with Mötley Crüe's Tommy Lee adding drum parts. This was the last album before the return of original guitarist James Iha and drummer Chamberlin in 2018.
The album received generally positive reviews from music critics, but sold poorly compared to the band's previous albums, peaking at number 33 in the U.S. and number 59 in the U.K., thus making it (at the time) their lowest charting album in both regions since their debut, Gish (1991).
