1.Prelude 12/21
This is what I brought you, this you can keep
This is what I brought, you may forget me
I promise to depart, just promise one thing
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep
This is what I brought you, this you can keep
This is what I brought, you may forget me
I promise you my heart, just promise to sing
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep
This is what I thought, I thought you'd need me
This is what I thought, so think me naive
I'd promise you a heart, you'd promise to keep
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep
Kiss my eyes and lay me to... sleep.
2.Kill Caustic
So, I'm feeling much worse now.
You're better, you're better.
Your designer drug
won't work, won't work for me.
Connect to a three volt.
I hope your battery dies.
How could you run
on such, on such voltage?
All the same, I remain the one to blame and I'm
demonized, purified, justified as you let yourself show.
So now you'll love these screams,
what's left of me. (Don't speak)
Love these screams like I do. (my name)
As the infinite stops cold
just nine and the six are gone.
Guess I was the one to
ride that, ride that dirty ride
that is turning so fast now
I cannot hold on
but at this pace,
who'd want to, who'd want to?
All the same, I remain the one to blame and I'm
demonized, purified, justified as you let yourself show.
So now you'll love these screams,
what's left of me. (Don't speak)
Love these screams like I do. (my name)
Don't ever speak my name
Don't ever speak my name again
Don't ever speak it
Don't ever speak my name again
Don't speak
Don't speak
DON'T
SPEAK
MY
Don't speak my name.
So, now you'll love these screams,
what's left of me. (Don't speak)
Love these screams like I do. (my name)
3.Miss Murder
Hey Miss Murder, can I
Hey Miss Murder, can I
Make beauty stay if I
take my life?
With just a look they shook
And heavens bowed before him.
Simply a look can break your heart.
The stars that pierce the sky,
He left them all behind.
We're left to wonder why
He left us all behind.
Dreams of his crash won't pass.
Oh, how they all adored him.
Beauty will last when spiraled down.
The stars that mystified,
he left them all behind
and how his children cried.
He left us all behind.
What's the hook, the twist within this verbose mystery?
I would gladly bet my life upon it
that the ghost you love, your ray of light will fizzle out
without hope.
We're the empty set just floating through, wrapped in skin,
ever searching for what we were promised...
Reaching for that golden ring we'd never let go...
Who would ever let us put their filthy hands upon it?
4.Summer Shudder
Listen when I say, when I say it's real.
Real life goes undefined, why must you be so missable?
Everything you take, makes me more unreal.
Real lines are undefined, how can this be so miserable?
Under the summer rain I burnt away
Under the summer rain (burn!) you turned away
Listen, I can't make, make a sound or feel
Feel fine, I kissed the lies. Why must they be so kissable?
Listen as I break, break the fourth wall's seal.
Gorgeous eyes shine suicide, when will we be invisible?
Under the summer rain I burnt away
Under the summer rain (burn!) we burnt away
Under the summer rain I burnt away
Under the summer rain (burn!) you turned away
This is the fall, this is the long way down
And our lives look smaller now, and our lives look so small.
(Let me hear you crying)
This is the fall, this is the long way down
And our lives look smaller now, and our lives look so small.
Under the summer rain I burnt away
Under the summer rain (burn!) we burnt away
Under the summer rain I burnt away
Under the summer rain (burn!) we burnt away
Under the summer rain (burn!) I burnt away
Under the summer rain (burn!) you turned away
5.The Interview
Forever waiting for disaster.
What David calls servant and master,
will you play it too?
As this displacement begs for water,
swimming, bathing,
drowning in sorrow,
scream with me.
I crawl across this cracked expansion.
I'll be buried soon
beneath the sand with pure intentions,
wanting something, someone to follow.
For a change I'll refrain
from hiding all of me from you.
Here's my lullaby...
Pray for rain, lose your name
and watch all your dreams fall through.
Hush now don't you cry.
I swoon upon my knees come crashing.
Will you bury me?
Today, this small favor I'm asking.
Hold me. You may drop me tomorrow.
For a change I'll refrain
from hiding all of me from you.
Here's my lullaby...
Pray for rain, lose your name
and watch all your dreams fall through.
Hush now...
For a change I'll refrain
from hiding all of me from you.
Pray for rain, lose your name
and watch all your dreams fall through.
Here's my lullaby.
Hush now don't you cry.
Calm down.
Come down, cold resides with me.
I flee to, I flee to decemberunderground. As you exhale
I breathe in and sink into the waterunderground
and I'll grow pale without you.
6.Love Like Winter
Warn your warmth to turn away.
Here it's December every day (I like that).
Press your lips to the sculptures
and surely you'll stay (Love like winter)
for of sugar and ice, I am made, I am made.
It's in the blood, it's in the blood.
I met my love before I was born.
He wanted love. I taste of blood.
He bit my lip and drank my war
from years before, from years before.
She exhales vanilla lace.
I barely dreamt her yesterday, yesterday.
Read the lines in the mirror
through the lipstick trace 'Por Siempre'.
She said, 'it seems you're somewhere far away' to his face.
It's in the blood, it's in the blood.
I met my love before I was born.
She wanted love. I taste of blood,
She bit my lip and drank my war
from years before, from years before.
Love like winter, oh, oh...
Love like winter, winter... 3,4
It's in the blood, it's in the blood.
I met my love before I was born.
He wanted love. I taste of blood.
He bit my lip and drank my war
from years before, from years before.
7.Affliction
Every night devise
new heights in genocide.
Lover, I am loveless.
All my friends and I
toast health and suicide.
Lover, I am lonely.
Were you holding hands when
my palms bled?
Oh, I will be all right...
just use me, just use me.
The future's bright without me.
Spend some time walking the line.
World is unified.
Ennui, and I divide.
Lover, I am loveless.
Red days and burning might
bleed till, till the faceless die. Oh,
Lover, I am lonely
Were you holding hands when
my wrists bled?
Oh, I will be all right...
just use me, just use me.
The future's bright without me.
Spend some time walking the line,
Spend some time walking the line.
So stay sweetly numb.
Remain lifeless, love.
So stay sweetly numb.
Maintain lifeless love.
stay sweetly numb.
Remain lifeless, love.
Oh, I will be all right...
just use me, just use me.
The future's bright without me.
Spend some time walking the line,
Spend some time walking the line.
8.The Missing Frame
One at a time constants become surreal.
One at a time heart attacks are concealed.
I can see that I lose the joys of life one at a time.
Suicides are revealed.
You will see that I lost another life but tonight
I'll let you tear it up
if you don't wake me up.
But if you tear it
we can't repair it
so please don't wake me
till someone cares.
Now no one cares.
One at a time I watched them all forget.
One at a time I'm lost in little deaths.
It's the place that I, I forget my life, like tonight.
I'll let you tear it up
if you don't wake me up.
But if you tear it
we can't repair it
so please don't wake me
till someone cares.
Now no one cares.
Will the flood behind me
put out the fire inside me?
Will the flood behind me (Will the flood)
put out the fire inside me?
I'll let you tear it up
I'll let you break it up
if you don't wake me up
but if you tear it
we can't repair it.
So, please don't wake me
till someone cares.
Now no one cares, cares.
I'll let you tear it up
if you don't wake me up
'cause it's apparent
that you don't care and
it's sunk into me
'cause I don't care.
Now no one cares.
9.Kiss And Control
Watch the stars turn you to nothing.
Now blush and smile as they whisk you away.
Part your lips a bit more, I'll swallow your fear.
I will show you how
all the bite marks impress a need to be here,
a need to see
city lights, like rain,
dance and explode,
fall upon debutants
reeling from nights that
kiss and control
all of our broken hearts.
Velvet burns the wrists while restraining.
You blushed and smiled and said you would stay.
One more time seal my breath, I'll feed you the sky.
I will show you how.
Steal the glamour from death and before you die,
oh you should see
city lights, like rain,
dance and explode,
fall upon debutants
reeling like nights that
kiss and control
all of our broken hearts.
All our hearts, all our hearts.
'We all wanna die like movie stars', you said
as you jumped from the height of our cutting room floor
while above us, glowing, exploding, our dreams burst forth in
light and death.
Hold me and tell me, 'We'll burn like stars. We'll burn as we
fall.
Watch as city lights dance for us.'
City lights, like rain,
dance and explode.
Fall upon the pain of our lives,
(reeling from nights that)
as they, kiss and control.
Fall upon the pain of our lives,
as they, dance and explode.
City lights like rain, city lights so caress me!
Kiss and control
all of our broken hearts.
10.The Killing Lights
Oh
Five A.M. on the bathroom floor
from the night before,
do you find me dreadful?
What a shame such a sad disgrace.
Such a pretty face
but she's not regretful.
Am I beautiful?
Am I usable?
It's killing time again (killing time again).
Put on your face and let's pretend,
these killing lights won't kill us all again.
Three A.M. on the city street,
when the air is sweet,
I've had my mouth full
but it seems that outside the screen
such a pretty face
often will look dreadful, oh.
Am I beautiful?
Am I usable?
It's killing time again (killing time again).
Put on your face and let's pretend,
these killing lights won't kill us all again.
It's killing time again (killing time again).
Cover your face and we'll pretend,
these killing lights can't kill us all again.
You see they always remember.
They never forget a face
when they cut cut cut cut cut cut cut you up,
cut cut cut cut. They remember.
Cut cut cut cut cut cut cut you up,
cut you up.
It's killing time again (killing time again).
Put on your face and let's pretend,
these killing lights won't kill us all again.
It's killing time again (killing time again).
Cover your face and we'll pretend,
these killing lights can't kill us all again.
All again.
All again.
It's time again.
It's killing time.
11.37mm
Bring your secrets to me.
Just give me your hands
and I'll let you feel the wounds
they put in me.
If you believe in me, how can I be dissolving?
If you'd believe me, I'd tell you everything.
Do you fall too? (Every time that I)
Yes, I fall. (Every time that I)
Do you want to (try to pacify)
fall into me? (fall into me, fall into me)
Into me
Silence can you hear me?
Press me to your lips and I'll suck the poison out.
Who will heal me?
Me...
If you keep killing me, how can I keep absolving?
Your sins into me, begin the poisoning.
Do you fall too? (Every time that I)
Yes, I fall. (Every time that I)
Do you want to (try to pacify)
fall into me? (fall into me, fall into me)
Into me
Time, time, time, we're not waiting.
Time, time, time, we're no one.
(I fall... I fall...)
Do you fall too? (Every time that I)
Yes, I fall. (Every time that I)
Do you want to (try to pacify)
fall into me? (fall into me)
Do you fall too? (Every time that I)
Yes, I fall. (Every time that I)
Do you want to (try to pacify)
fall into me? (fall into me, fall into me)
Into me
We are no one
12.Endlessly, She Said
Walked into our world and made horrible sounds.
I can still hear them today. Strangely, they seem
beautiful now though they outlast my love.
Still, each time I always meant
every word, every one.
Though, in time they finally bent
every word, every one, every word.
'I will wait for you',
she said, 'endlessly'.
'I will wait for you.'
So spoke misery.
I returned to you but found my empty home.
The radio told me to stay. As it burned down I sang alone.
You will outlast my love.
Still, each time I always meant
every word, every one.
Though, in time they finally bent
every word, every one, every word.
'I will wait for you',
she said, 'endlessly'.
'I will wait for you.'
So spoke misery.
Oh...
I have been waiting for you,
biting as you taught me to.
I have come to relieve you
of life and love.
I will wait for you.
I will wait for you.
I will wait for you.
I will wait.
(I will wait)
'I will wait for you',
(I will wait)
she said, 'endlessly'.
'I will wait for you.'
(I will wait)
So spoke misery.
'I will wait for you, wait for you,
endlessly.'
'I will wait for you.'
So spoke, so spoke
misery.
And I will bite
Straight through...
As I wait for you
Dear... Endlessly
13.Rabbits Are Roadkill On Rt. 37
What once did exist,
Now is meaningless.
And doesn't it seem funny,
How soon you did forget (How soon you did forget)
All the words that now lost their way
But I remember, I remember
Desperation. Devastation.
All I truly know (All that I know)
Is isolation. Self-damnation.
All life that I know
Was shed and worthless now
What I knew was wrong,
One who lived is gone.
Guess it was just an echo,
When you would sing my song (When you would sing my song).
All the notes you've forgotten now
You've left abandoned, I remember
Desperation. Devastation.
All I truly know (All that I know)
Is isolation. Self-damnation.
All life that I know
Was shed and worthless now.
I can
Hate myself
More
More than anyone (will you join me?)
I know you know that this tortures me.
Have I created the suffering?
Show me.
Or do you happily cut further in
to sever what's left inside
that binds me?
Now all I feel is:
Desperation. Devastation.
All I truly know (All that I know)
Is isolation. Self-damnation.
All life that I know
Was shed and worthless now.
Desperation. Devastation.
All I truly know (All that I know)
Is isolation. Self-damnation.
All life that I know
Was shed and worthless (worthless) now.
14.Head Like A Hole
God money I'll do anything for you.
God money just tell me what you want me to.
God money nail me up against the wall.
God money don't want everything he wants it all.
No you can't take it
No you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me
No you can't take it
No you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me
Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.
Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.
Bow down before the one you serve.
You're going to get what you deserve.
Bow down before the one you serve.
You're going to get what you deserve.
God money's not looking for the cure.
God money's not concerned with the sick amongst the pure.
God money let's go dancing on the backs of the bruised.
God money's not one to choose
