There's a fire,
And all the lines are down,
There's a panic in the town,
And all the wires are crossed,
Now they're calling in the dark.

And the teeth shine like pearls,
In a witchy underworld,
And they all feed the flames,
When they're moving in.

And everyone knows your name,
In the dark it's all the same,
When you're done down in the black,
And you want to take to take it back,
Yeah, you want to take it back.

There's a fire,
And all the lights are out,
There's strange noise about,
Now it's happened all around,
Buildings burned to the ground.

Now the flames have reached the heart,
People spilling out in cars,
And they all feel the flames,
When they're moving in.

And everyone knows your name,
In the dark it's all the same,
When you're done down in the black,
And you want to take it back,
Yeah, you want to take it back.

Everyone knows your name,
In the dark it's all the same,
And when you're done down in the black,
And you want to take it back,

There's a fire,
And all the lines are down,
There's a panic in the town,
But the worst is almost passed,
Now the dogs are gone at last.

And the teeth shine like pearls,
In a witchy underworld,
And they wanna point the blame,
You can hear them saying:

"And everyone knows your name,
In the end it's all the same,
Whether you're dancing in the light,
Or crawling on all fours."

In the end it's all the same,
When there's no one left to blame,
And you're done down in the black,
And you want to take it back,
Yeah, you want to take it back,
There's a fire.
There's a fire.
There's a fire.
There's a fire.

So many hands, reaching up for our connection
Forging a plan, in a vertical direction
But, they make no movement I could trace
Under the shadow of a most peculiar place

Are they alone, though they seem to be in hundreds
And then there was one, shouting out 'its truly wonderous'
But I saw the darkness in his face
Reflecting the shadow of a most peculiar place

I moved in close to the center of the gathering
And as I approached, there were than I'd imagined
But, the statue in the middle was defaced
In showing defiance of a most peculiar place

So I raised my hand, reaching up for a connection
Forging a plan in a vertical direction
But, I made no movement you could trace
Under the shadow of a most peculiar place

. . .


Sometimes i get so excited
Sometimes i can feel you in the air
Sometimes i just lose my head and
Throw all of my caution to the wind

I've needed before and i need it now
I've needed before and i need it now
I've needed before and i need it now

All the rivers that you dammed (x3)

Inside your blue world (x2)

All the rivers that you dammed are
Overflowing over land and sea
With pockets of waves that pull you under
Overflowing over land and sea

With all the things you can't take back
And all the things you can't take back
And all the things you can't take back again

Inside your blue world (x2)

. . .


When you're lost and you're dry
The flood is on the way
When they kill you for a light
They push you all the way
The deeper you go the harder it gets
Until nothing's left of you
When you're lost it's a mess

But there's a feeling when
You let it in
You can't be sure
Of anything
I let it out,
I let it in

The flood is on the way

The times you've known,
The ones you love
You left in the dark
The drugs you took last night
Were right there from the start
The bigger it gets the fiercer it grows
Consuming everything
The ones you love,
The times you've known

But where there is nothing
Was once open
I can't be sure
Of anything
I let it out,
I let it in
Now all the things I once began
Are all but dry, they're all but dead

The flood is on the way

. . .


It's time to sink or swim
You called and i'm home again
So come on and let me know
Is there someplace that we can go?

This time might be the last
So don't talk about the past
We all make the same mistakes
We all had a choice to make

So tell me i'm wrong and tell me you've had enough
Well ok - i think i've got it straight
Tell me how crazy and out of control
You take it all so hard
You take it all so hard
You take it all so hard

It's time to sink or swim
The way that you learn again
So come on and let me know
Is there some place that we can go?

So tell me i'm wrong and tell me you've had enough
Well ok - i think i've got it straight
Tell me how crazy and out of control
You take it all so hard
You take it all so hard
You take it all so hard

. . .


There's nothing now that isn't known
Nothing in the end that can't be shown
It all comes back to this
And the feeling doesn't stay
It doesn't matter if it's fast or slow
It all comes back to this

Always takes me back
Always pulles me under
In a heart attack

There's nothing now that's still the same
The neon and the pinprick in the vein
Moving through your blood
And you can tell it leaves a trace
And always when you wipe away the stain

It all comes back to this
Always fills the cracks
Always pulls me under
In a heart attack

There's nothing now that isn't known
Nothing in the end that can't be shown
It all comes back to this
And everything begins in white
But it doesn't matter if it's fast or slow

It all comes back to this
Always ends in black
Always pulls me under
In a heart attack

Dancing in the Light

We're not gonna crack,
Not a bit,
We're not gonna stop,
At nothing.

Anything you do,
it's nothing changed
Anywhere you go,
We're coming in.

And when it gets in you,
It sets in you,
And then you know it's all the same,
A complicated mess!

We're not gonna give,
Give an inch,
We're not gonna let up,
Just a pinch.

Anything you do,
it's nothing changed
Anywhere you go,
We're coming in.

And when it gets in you,
It sets in you,
And then you know it's all the same,
A complicated mess,
A mess,
A mess!

We've got machines,
To beat you up
Jaws that eat,
Eat you up
You just keep,
Backing up.

Pulling away and running out the back
But you can't get away
No, you can't get away
No, you can't get away

We're not gonna crack.

. . .


Stop all the noise
I thought i heard a voice
From down in here
From down in here

I could've sworn
It was slow and long
Coming from here
Coming from here

Let's make a rope
Get something that floats
And stuff it here
And stuff it here

What light that comes
I will not run
Alone and still
To catch the tail

Now it's so cold
Let's pack and go
Far away from here
Far away from here

. . .


I should have known you'd disappear
I should have known you wouldn't be here
Dancing in the brightest light
Burning down this endless night
I could have been something bigger then
Got turned around somewhere, somewhen
Turning to somebody again
For just that one more time and then
You fall on every whim
Come again to a place that lets you in
And you'll never see the end
Wasted again
Wasted again
I could have seen the turning tide
Got swept away on the longest ride
Trying to make up for lost time
Trying to find what's left behind
All the little lights that shine
In my mind and all the time
It's just that one more time you spend
Well, just that one more time and then
You fall on every whim
Come again to a place that lets you in
And you'll never see the end
Wasted again
Wasted again
Wasted again
Got turned around somewhere and then
What did you expect to find
Burning down this endless night?
What did you expect to see?
Who did you expect to meet?
What did you expect to find
Burning down this endless night?
What did you expect to see
When you're all the world away
And you're bringing in the fire
Bringing in the flame
Bringing in the worst
Bringing in the pain
When you want it to be right
You want it back and then
You're all the world away
Again

. . .


tell me everything I need to know
calling out 'till this plateau is behind
do you if there's nothing left
and is there life after death
but in time

come and take me for a little ride
i'll meet you on the other side
a voice is blaring in my head
you might as well be dead
if you're not already

tell me is this just another trick
another turn to make me sick on myself
if im doing what I ought
but with the same old lonely thoughts of you

come and take me for a little spin
and I'll have someone get you in
a voice is blaring in my mind
you might aswell be blind
if you're not already

but im not gonna lose any more, oh no
im not gonna lose any more, oh no
please don't let me lose any more

come and take me for a little ride
i'll meet you on the other side
a voice is calling my name
you might as well be saved
if you're not already

but im not gonna lose any more, oh no
im not gonna lose any more, oh no
please don't let me lose any more

. . .


Your head is turned around, a twisted up face
Screwed up like a hurricane
The words are coming out tongue-tied every way
Getting away from you again

And it looks like red
But it feels like grey
And there are no signs to point the way

Fading in and out, coming through in waves
Breaking up on the line
Everything is in every other place
Moving in a different time

And when you're trying to find a place
And all you see is filled up space

Underneath are other things that you call by name
Familiar friends, you let them in
Just holding on so nothing slips away

Well i can't forget and you know i can't be wrong
I can't forget and you know i can't be wrong
I can't forget and you knew it all along
You know i can't be
You know i can't be wrong

Underneath are other things that you call by name
Familiar friends, you let them in
Just holding on so nothing slips away
