Truth?
 
  • I've been burning
  • And dousing the flames
  • I feel the whiplash
  • Of the backlash on my face
  • I melt to sleep at night
  • But I wake to trip the day
  • Never for you never for me
  • Would I kiss your feet of clay
  • I'm still alive and so should I
  • Soak up the wave of compromise
  • Am I the victim of youth
  • Is this the truthh
  • Why don't you tell me
  • Why don't you tell me
  • There's no conscience
  • In charity or shame
  • The voice deceive me
  • But believe me its the same
  • I see the black in white
  • And the colour in the gray
  • Better for me better for you
  • Gonna bleach it all away
  • I'm still alive and so should I
  • Soak up the wave of compromise
  • I see the scars, I hear the lies
  • So what's the truth
  • Why don't you tell me
Turn To Dust
 
  • The concentration drifts
  • In and out of me
  • Conversation slides away
  • Turn and face the change in apathy
  • Take a rise to fall
  • Won't you save me
  • Don't you blame me
  • I got the feel that I'm gone - Turn to dust
  • Sentence
  • Rape me
  • Segregate me
  • I got the fear that I am gone - Turn to dust
  • Slave or sympathy it atrophies
  • Save but ancient hearts
  • Hiding scars and knives in symphonies
  • Still we rise to fall
  • [Repeat Bridge]
  • [Repeat Chorus]
  • [Repeat Bridge]
  • [Repeat Chorus]
Slang
 
  • Sittin' Dark
  • Getting taken
  • 'Cause I said
  • Something lewd in a
  • Low down accent
  • Yeah Yeah Yeah
  • Kinda love those eyes
  • I wanna get down honey
  • But I ain't your guy
  • I'll rap'n ruch
  • 'N jam it up
  • But count me out
  • Cause all I ever wanna get is slang
  • Slang with me - I don't wanna get my hands dirty
  • Slang with me - I just wanna get soakin' wet
  • Slang with me - I don't wanna get my hands dirty
  • All I ever wanna get is slang
  • What's affectin' my condition
  • What's about to knock you down
  • Said wrapped 'n bound and a goddamn
  • I'd love to get connected
  • But it's outta my hands
  • [Repeat Bridge]
  • [Repeat Chorus]
  • It's my intention to be your obsession
  • It's my obsession to be your addiction
  • [Repeat Chorus]
All I Want Is Everything
 
  • I don't know how to leave you
  • And I don't know how to stay
  • I've got things that I must tell you
  • That I don't know how to say
  • The man behind these empty words
  • Is crying out in shame
  • Holding on to this sinking ship
  • When nothing else remains
  • All I want is everything
  • Am I asking too much?
  • All I want is everything
  • Like the feel of your touch
  • But all I have are yesterdays
  • Tomorrow never comes
  • It's hard to hold your head up
  • When you're kneeling down to pray
  • And the talking dooesn't come easy now
  • When the words get in the way
  • And if you could see what's going on
  • Behind these private eyes
  • The truth would look so easy now
  • But I'm running out of lies
  • [Repeat Chorus]
  • [Guitar Solo]
  • You think the shadow of doubt
  • Is hangin' over my head
  • It's just an angel whose wings hide the sun
  • And it's myself I betray
  • I can not wish this away
  • Took my chance now the damage is done
  • All I want is everything
  • Am I asking too much?
  • All I want is everything
  • Like the feel, the feel of your touch
  • When all I have are yesterdays
  • Tomorrow never comes
  • Ooh, oooh
  • Ooh, oooh
Work It Out
 
  • Day and night black and white
  • You take it all for granted
  • I'm the one who turns you on
  • When you don't know where you belong
  • And nothin' seems to matter
  • I'm the one who's holding on
  • It's alright to be wrong
  • All we need's a little time
  • But nothing here can last that long
  • We show the world a brand new face
  • It's taken us all this time
  • All this time
  • All of this doubt
  • We get to work it out
  • All of this doubt
  • We get to work it out
  • Yesterday lost your way
  • Still looking for an answer
  • I'm the one who holds the key
  • When you don't know where you belong
  • And nothing seems to matter
  • I'll unlock this mystery
  • [Repeat Chorus]
  • [Guitar Solo]
  • [Repeat Chorus]
  • All of this doubt
  • Day and night - Black and White
  • Take it all for granted
  • We get to work it out
  • I'm the one who turns you on
  • Turns you on - Turns you on
  • All of this doubt
  • When you don't know where you belong
  • And nothin' seems to matter
  • We get to work it out
  • I'm the one who's holdin' on
  • Holdin' on - Holdin' on
Breathe A Sigh
 
  • Let me down slow and easy
  • Cause there ain't nothin' I can do
  • I hope and pray my faith won't leave me
  • When it comes down to me and you
  • Try a little tenderness
  • I die a little
  • For a long lost sweet caress
  • You lyin' next to me
  • Fulfilled some destiny
  • I wanna cry
  • But I breathe a sigh
  • Just a little bit of letting go
  • I don't want you to know
  • I wanna cry
  • But I breathe a sigh
  • Overflow of emotion
  • And a hurt that'll never heal
  • If you close the door forever
  • The fate of pain is sealed
  • Try a little tenderness
  • I die a little
  • For a long lost sweet caress
  • [Repeat Bridge]
  • [Repeat Chorus]
  • I more than long for your affection
  • I tell you know that ain't so
  • Not even gentle persuasion
  • Is ever gonna let me go
  • Won't you let me breathe
  • [Repeat Bridge]
  • [Repeat Chorus]
Deliver Me
 
  • I'm tired of feeling hateful
  • I'm tired and I can't breathe
  • So tired that I would be grateful
  • If you close the door when you leave
  • That's me diggin' my heels in
  • That's me with the holy ghost
  • 'Scuse me but I don't remember
  • Where were you when I needed you most
  • And I'm tied to the sky
  • As you claw at my eyes
  • And I wait for the flood
  • I swim in blood
  • As I crawl to my knees
  • And I beg your disease
  • Taste the ice on your breath
  • As you catch your death
  • I close my eyes
  • Embrace me
  • Deliver me
  • Hey you the voice of reason
  • Hey you are you listening to me
  • It's you that I can't believe in
  • I don't buy what I don't see
  • Say good-bye 'cause I don't need
  • [Repeat Chorus]
  • [Repeat Chorus]
  • I close my eyes
  • Embrace the wave
  • Abandon me
  • Save the day
  • That I won't see
  • Deliver me
Gift Of Flesh
 
  • I am all destiny, a trade
  • A grain of sand
  • I am the lesson to be learned
  • I take the throat of innocence
  • And leave decay
  • I stain the way for all to see
  • No fear, no voice, no reason
  • In God no guiding light
  • When all the guilt that's in your head
  • Turns its back and plays for dead
  • You scorch the earth and torch the sky
  • Conscience low with head held high
  • Indulge and multiply
  • And sacrifice
  • As lack of breath chokes underground
  • Divulge degenerate
  • The darker side
  • From windows watch the screaming sky
  • [Repeat Chorus]
  • When all the guilt that's in your head
  • Turns its back and plays for dead
  • You scorch the earth and torch the sky
  • Conscience low with head held high
  • From all the truth comes all the shame
  • The curse of flesh just takes its aim
  • On hallowed ground and tortured sky
  • Walk in fear with spirits high
Blood Runs Cold
 
  • I heard this line one time 'bout tryin' to save the world
  • But have you ever tried to save yourself
  • A wide-eyed suicide drive
  • Remains a fake
  • As if you'd ever
  • Ever go and make the same mistake
  • Strung out as the night comes crawlin'
  • Your halo of thorns is fallin'
  • Blood runs cold
  • I feel it in my bones
  • But you don't know your time is up
  • Blood runs cold
  • Somebody somewhere is screamin' out the words
  • But do they ever really ease the pain
  • I guess what I'm trying to say
  • Is whose life is it anyway because livin'
  • Living is the best revenge
  • You can play
  • This fall from grace
  • I see your face
  • It's over
  • [Repeat Chorus]
  • From you love was kind
  • Resolved left scarred and blind
  • Wasted and naked in the wings
  • Denying twist of fate
  • Demanding Heaven's gate
  • Lying in wait above the wind
  • Strung out as the night comes crawlin'
  • Your halo of thorns is fallin'
  • [Repeat Chorus]
  • Blood runs cold
  • Blood runs cold
Where Does Love Go When It Dies
 
  • Could you ever steal a prayer to deny your God
  • Could you ever buy your love and not count the cost
  • Could you ever take a life when all was lost
  • And would it ever be enough
  • Could you bite the hand that feeds you and then ask for more
  • Could you kiss the wound that bleeds spit it on the floor
  • Could you open up your heart then close the door
  • And would it ever be enough
  • Every word you whisper
  • All the tears you hide
  • You die for love when it's alive
  • But where does love go when it dies
  • If you came across your dream would you walk on by
  • Hold a candle to the wind and just let it die
  • And is there room inside your mind for one more try
  • And would it ever be enough
  • I watch the time go rushing by it's like an ocean wave
  • Showing you no mercy throwing dirt upon your grave
  • You're drowning in the darkness and you're blinded by the light
  • And there ain't no prayer that's gonna save you now
  • If you woke up from your sleep blood on your hands
  • Would you wash the pain away no one understands
  • There must be someone out there who can help you breathe again
  • And would it ever be enough
  • [Repeat Chorus]
Pearl Of Euphoria
 
  • Your price, name the time
  • The suspect or the crime
  • The shadow of my gun
  • Get down or you can run
  • Feed the demon, kiss the flame, feel your desire
  • Empty room, turn the key
  • You're never alone
  • When you're with me
  • Temptation, break the vow
  • Cut flesh from the sacred cow
  • Unchain the tiger, kiss the flame, feel your desire
  • Feed the demon, kiss the flame, feel your desire
  • Soaked in fear, the curtain falls
  • Religion within these walls
  • Mystify my soul beliefs
  • Confession is my release
  • Feed the demon, kiss the flame, feel your desire
  • Unchain the tiger, crucify, feed your desire
  • Pearl of euphoria
  • Pearl of euphoria
