. . .



And for one second I lost my head
and for one second, I wished that you were dead
and for one second, you wish that you were here all alone
Hold back the tears that could fall for me.
And for one second, I lost my breath
and for one second, I cherish what you said
and for one second, it seemed that I was here all alone
Hold back the tears that could fall for me
And for one second, I understand
and for one second, my life was in your hands
and for one second, you wish that you were here all alone
Hold back the tears that could fall for me, they fall alone.


. . .



You get high, with your destructive instinct
You get high, with your corrosive instinct -
Where can I go, to escape your foul mind tricks
You're trying it more, but you will never break me
Cause you presume, the winner's you but that's not true

So say just words to me, unreal what your hate's providing
Say just words to me, your talk is always contradiction
Say just words to me, you won't feel the warmth of friends around you
You say just words to me, is it true that there's worth inside,
So say just words to me.

Your designs, all the worse from power craving
Your desires, only where there's fire burning,
I'll show you the way, a pleasure that's for the taking
You're trying it more, but you won't get satisfaction
Couse you presume the winner is you, but that's not true
So say just words to me.


. . .



Through the searching lights that weave and dark
comes the stranger that cares not for your heart
the pain of living life this way
must take its toll on you some day.
Your jaded eyes can see embarrassment or harm
the trail skin that bleeds emotionally on guard.
All lowest forms of life are pounding you inside
your hollow cold display your tired masquerade
let the image that you present entice
unlike the mirror that shows the strains of vice
this act of contact your decay
while willing souls will more that pay.


. . .



You live for times of solace
Within a sign there's a promise,
Don't lose all faith cause you shake at night
It's in the art of the process.

In another rhyme beyond this place.
The healing's fast enough...
Done a thousand times a thousand ways until
You've had enough...

It's mercy you're asking for cheating life
By taking more it's mercy you're asking for
Take my life or give me more...
The loss of prize possession to cure the mind's obsession
Could trade your soul for that normal life
Elite to all objections...

See beyond all tears and broken years your senses giving
Up lose all confidence at your expense your courage swallows up.


. . .



I could not care less for on,
So many things tales of your distress
And what tomorrow brings alluring
You on sight I'd harbour my delight
You could not care
For what tune sorrows sings
In this battle of ages
A breath of fire would light your pilot
Are you soul courageous
A breath of life would make you maybe see...
You bring me to the ground
Victory's in vain unless one knows the score
Inner peace reclines in place the bitter scorn
Spirit maketh man always at hand
But spirit fails to save the ones worth waiting for


. . .



Another day and the guilt is gone
Another day will stress the week and the strong
Just a memory that we've become
I have taken without warning when the day has just begun...

A summers day, and my blood runs cold,
I can hear you in the morning as I'm reaching out to haunt you,
A summers day, and my blood runs cold,
You will never hear me calling as I'm reaching to destroy you.

Another day won't ease the sorrow
Another day will help frustration to
Grow all the pictures and the face of hope,
I have taken without warning when the day has just begun.


. . .



I find when I'm all alone that I feel so ashamed, cause all my pride is gone
Say what you never can resist
Say what you never would believe
Give what you never want to show.
Give what you never would receive.
A time when I'm all alone & I'm breathing afraid, cause all my pride is gone
Elate the tears I create, how completely inane, cause all my pride is gone.

Collapse at my sorry stance but I need to surpass cause...
My only thrill alone in my own hell


. . .



I can take one day to achieve my goal, then it starts again.
In this circumstance that I call my own dreams just don't deliver.
I never needed foes forever feeling low cause they breake me down cannot fake
this frown.
I never took offence I never swore in advance but I'll breake you down with my
poison mouth again.

I cannot deny bittersweet recline to a sole religion
It's a certain way that I'm feeling host to a new deception...


. . .



You'll see the blood, blood of another
You'll see the blood as we roll in it together
You'll see the blood, blood of another
You'll see the blood as we roll in it together tonight.

What unruly life is like what is fabled wisdom like?
This indulgent grace is spinning round and leaving all bahind knowledge
Limits you besides claming you're so sure by vibes
In this frozen climate the temperature should bring you down to rights.

Beauty, purity inside twisted madness filth and vice
Death is not selective the darker shroud will fall on all despite
Recklessness, the fault in mind anger, laughter can't provide try to turn a
blind eye
The wasting pain one trip you cannot buy...


. . .



In living with a fear of chance,
The chance of fear the only reason you're awake,
We decrease in size when burdened with your mind,
But you know escape is to run,

In a constant commotion
When I speake it's revulsion maybe you'll disappear

Recall the past when you were strong,
Those distant days it seems are now forever gone,
You'll increase desire to wander and retire, but you know escape is to run.


. . .



Seasons of sun won't suffice,
But for you my guarding light, I'd walk around this earth.
Though the streets are paved with gold I'd collect it to be sold,
I'm bringing this on myself

But I feel for you,
Will you show you're sane.

In your mouth a loaded gun,
Pull the trigger have you won
Let's see how you can do, it's the darker days you dread,
All the hurtful things I said, it seems I'm nothing,

But I feel for you,
Will you show you're sane.


. . .



You aren't what I love
You aren't what I need
You aren't what I love
You aren't what I need
What I need
Don't let them take me down there
You aren't what I love
You aren't what I see
You hate from above you become what I need
What I need
Don't let them take me down


. . .



[digipack bonus]

In your hands I'm trying
In your hands I'm trying flight
I can't die
In your hands I'm trying
In your hands I'm trying flight
I can't die,

I'm flying in the cold breeze every night
Spare me all the strife
My desires never tire but would it feel much better if I died?
Petty highs get me by but how long must I live with this disguise...

Have you no direction?
I just sense pretentious signs...
In your highs
Have you no direction?
I just sense pretentious signs
In your highs...

I hear the same old stories every night
Spare me all the strife
My desires never tire but would it feel much better if I died?
Petty highs get me by but how long must I live with this disguise...


. . .



I need time I know
I need time I know
but it's too late
your time I don't need
I've the mission for you
can you see it through
resist what I say
accept what I do...

you'll see
mourning the loss is just pain to one self

numbered days are few
the lies promised to you
are a good way
of keeping it all
collapsed is our bond
I pretend to respond
no love for the lost...
no love for the lost...

you'll see
mourning the loss is just pain to one self


. . .



I am the son
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
of nothing in particular

you shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

I am the son
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
of nothing in particular

you shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

there's a club if you'd like to go
you could meet somebody who really loves you
so you go, and you stand on your own
and you leave on your own
and you go home, and you cry
and you want to die

when you say it's gonna happen "now"
well, when exactly do you mean?
see I've already waited too long
and all my hope is gone

you shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does


. . .



[Originally performed by Stillborn]

'o you sweet, little six six sixteen
I'm the saviour of your sisterhood
stretched thing, held in leash for daddy
clench the thong now honey clench it good
shadow blue, the shadow of the ox whip
whistling through the dark and kiss my poor child
slashed sister, kneel before your daddy
and squeeze now honey swallow my pride

'o you are my favourite nightmare
'o you are my favourite nightmare

nude thing, 'o the nude so naked
mummy's little girl a long way from home
all by herself, on a southern highway
now you're the princess of my leather dome

'o you are my favourite nightmare
'o you are my favourite nightmare

'o you sweet, little six six sixteen
I'm your daddy you're my flesh and blood
shadow black, the shadow of the razor
all over my room just flesh and blood


. . .



within the hour it finds me
how come with you it takes so long?
so long, so long

and if you're slipping out of sanity
I reveal, you're not the fool that feels it strong
what it takes to make you go

holding the hands that shake me
it's just the rules you're reading wrong
oh so wrong

and if you're careless with hostility
I reveal, you're not the fool that gets it wrong
what it takes to make you go

within the hour it finds me
how come with you it takes so long?
so long, so long

and if you're slipping out of sanity
I reveal, and like a fool I feel it strong
what it takes to make you go


. . .



into what should not be done, into what was left undone
the way you fall onto your knees

into what should not be done, into what was left undone revealing
the fortune from your pleas

but I can't take it back, cos his soul keeps searching for more
but I can't take it back, any soul would cry out for more
but I can't take it back, no way no more
