1.Abused
Won't take me home, I'm sweetness to the bone
I'm silken and discreet, amiable and cheap
Meat for you to pound, to beat and smack around
Holes for you to fill with anything you will
But I won't apologize for the things that I do
I am victimized but so are you
There is nothing I've not seen, I'm bruised but I'm clean
If you're turned off by my tracks just get up on my back
I'm prouder than you'd guess, I'm honest more or less
For you i will not pretend, I'll never be your friend
I won't apologize for the things that I do
I am victimized but so are you
Love knows these lips, never kissed before
And at my fingertips are the secrets of a whore
Bring me to your lust
You're cursed and you are weak
In myself I trust
In my bed you leak
2.All Change
The trouble is you think you have time
Enough to waste enough to embrace
Enough to let you just talk about what you will do
Totally lost, fully undone
How do you change what you've become?
It's all change now
Do the best you know how
When desire ends
Peace will come again
The trouble is you think you'll find
Why should you try what you don't know
You have a description of the world that you believe
But will all let you down
It always lets you down
It's all change now
Do the best you know how
When desire ends
Peace will come again
So do it now, do it well
Tomorrow all will have changed again
Be awake, be amazed
Be a guest at the best parade
For it's all change now
Do the best you know how
When desire ends
Peace will come again
It's all change
Oh it's all change
It's all change
Change
3.Black Hole
You can't deny what you are
You are part of a star like me
We will return there one day
We will return there one day
4.Caned
Long face lines trace the time
Memories that you hold dear
Swear you've been blessed by years
Routine thats kept you here
So long, so long
Strong, how much stronger, stronger that me
Pull a little harder
Until you pull free
Caned young to stop the bend
Up before the world awakes
Won't leave your home behind
Bones lie leviathans
of pride
Inside, inside
Strong, how much stronger you always were
Pull a little harder
You're almost there
We all harbour prejudice
We all want more than we have
But when it all fades away
Underneath we are the same
Strong, how much stronger, stronger than me
Pull a little harder
Until you pull free
Strong, how much stronger, you always were
Pull a little harer
You're almost there
You're almost there
5.Dust
I just lost my best friend
I miss you so much I wish my life would end
I cannot get up from down here
I cried until dust appeared
But I cannot let go
Cuz it hurts like I've never been hurt before
And it feels like I'll never smile again
I cannot sleep without you there
All I wanted was to be with you everywhere
Let me quietly fade away
The best part of me left today
But I cannot let go
Cuz it hurts like I've never been hurt before
But it feels like I'll never smile again
One day, all this will be yours
And I'm hoping to find you with open arms
But I cannot let go
Cuz it hurts like I've never been hurt before
But it hurts like I've never been hurt before
And it feels like I'll never smile anymore
And it hurts like...
And it feels like...
But it hurts like...
But it feels like...
6.Heavy
Rejoice for what is coming
Smile for we are one
You are part of my future
And thats as bright as they come
As they come
Just because we're heavy
You don't have to be held down
Just make sure you're ready
For your trip this time around, around
In your company I'm quickened
I move inwards when we speak
We're all heavy with instruction
We're all fragile in defeat, in defeat
Just because we're heavy
You don't have to be held down
Just make sure you're ready
For your trip this time around, around
Around around around around around
Around around
Around around around around around
We are defined by our mistakes
An open mind is all it takes
Just because we're heavy
You don't have to be held down
Just make sure you're ready
For your trip this time around, around
Around around around around around
Around around
Around around around around around
Around around
Around around around around around
7.Nobody Knows
All designed for my downfall
Fortified but for how long
Everything I want nothing I need
Poverty is hard wealth's a disease
In control I'm not in control
Stranglehold
Nobody know's the trouble I'm in
Happiness is wafer thin
I'm in love until I'm not
Less content the more I've got
Play too much to want to stop
All that's good I've given up
Takes awhile to realize
Mischeif does what love defies
In control, I'm not in control
Swallowed whole
8.Red Bird
I've been dreaming of a red bird
And the peace of it's gentle wings
It's an omen of better things
I've been waking with the same pain
That makes me wanna sleep
And dream of a red bird
So build us a nest, for I've chosen to leave
For I'm so heavy here
Come to me tonight and I'll be waiting
With my wings
I will have left the weight behind me that
The blood of man brings
Where there once was despair
Tonight I'll be free
And the slings and the stone that uncovered my bones
will have flown my memory
I've been dreaming of a red bird
It's sings of a way out, it sings of release
It's been tapping on my window
To remind me it's waiting
And that I have a choice
So build us a nest, for I have chosen to leave
For I am so heavy here
Come to me tonight and I'll be waiting
With my wings
I will have left the weight behind that
The blood of man brings
Where there once despair
Tonight I'll be free
And the slings and the stones that uncovered
my bones will have flown my memory
Take me away from here
I am not equipped for such strain
Take away the fear
How do you prepare for the pain
Now I'm leaving with a red bird
As my arms leak again
I am so happy here
Come to me tonight and I'll be waiting
With my wings
I will have left the weight behind that
The blood of man brings
Where there once was despair
Tonight I will be free
And the slings and the stones that uncovered
My bones will have flown my memory
I've been dreaming of a red bird
And the peace of it's gentle wings
It's an omen of better things
I've been waking with the same pain
That makes me want to sleep
And dream of a red bird
Been dreaming of a red bird...
9.Stones
It's just like you to cause a scene
It's just like me to tell tales
I know it weighs heavy
But it doesn't have to be this way
Just let the stones fall from their slings
You know you can throw sharper things
Just let the pain fold away
You'll slip your chains sooner that way
What comes down to burden you
Is just like a test that never fails
And I know It's hard for you
But you don't see the beauty that I see
Just let the stones fall from their slings
You know you can throw sharper things
Just let the pain fold away
You'll slip your chains sooner that way
And I will be the last one down
For I see more than just a noose
Allow me to show you what I mean
Just take my hand it's alright
I know you're weak from all you fight
Just let the fear of it all
Trouble you no more
10.Teenage Angel
She's in love but she doesn't know
What she needs or how to let go
I feels like being married
She was too young to miscarry
She says
"Bye bye my childhood dream man
I will keep in touch if I can
Spent the best years of my life with you"
Happens every time
You start to lose yourself
You turn to blame the one
That loves you the most
To stay and work it out is harder
Than to run away
So she leaves a note
Because to his face she couldn't say
"Bye bye my childhood dream man
I will keep in touch if I can
Spent the best years of my life with you"
Hold on if you can
Hold on
So all things fade in time
But what was once so bright
Somehow no longer shines
Caught the pain at last
Thought he was the one
Thought she had the strength to hold
"Bye bye my child hood dream man
I will keep in touch if I can
Spent the best years of my life with you"
"Bye bye my teenage angel
I don't know how the spell was broken
I don't know what I'm doing, but I'll miss you
I don't know what I'm doing but I'll miss you
I don't know what I'm doing but I'll miss you"
11.Underneath
Last night I saw the face of god
But waking I forgot who she was
Now I understand the power of love
Now I know nothing is all I've understood
I want to know the truth
But then again what's the use
I'm so confused
I've all the answers just too much to lose
And I need to know what I believe
I feel a child underneath
Underneath
