1.Goodnight
作詞:Michael Rainbow
First place on a classroom wall
Every turn of the face can help to break
The fall from a domestic disgrace
Every rumor displaced is lost and found
A lack of discipline, one hand to cut the other
So unprofessional
You're not a friend, you're just a lover
Nothing exceptional, this is correctional
Mirror on the wall, frame the picture
Reflect this kiss to wish us all goodnight
First day in a victim's chair
Every surface replaced can help to keep
You fair for a corrected gaze
Every feature displayed will match your crowd
A loss of innocence, one hand to wash the other
Be a perfectionist
You're nothing if you're just another
Something material, this isn't personal
Mirror on the wall, frame the picture
Reflect this kiss to wish us all goodnight
We're all dancing to the same sad song
And we're not sleeping but it won't take long
Illicit conviction, confessions incomplete
Correction, submissive restriction
Instructions will repeat direction
Mirror on the wall, frame the picture
Reflect this kiss to wish us all goodnight
2.Falling Down
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Matthew O'halloran, Michael Rainbow, Sara
Taylor
Farewell, this blackened eye
You learned your lessons falling down
Far behind and tracing footsteps home
Despite your lack of pride
You wore your imperfections well
Dignified, spend your time alone
Trace your footsteps home
Your hands are always reaching out of favor
Your kind are only good for bad behavior
Your mouth was never one to trust
You're always speaking out, falling far behind
Falling out of line
Farewell, this bitter tongue
You spoke your lessons falling down
Talking out and breaking silence
Despite the harm you've done
You swallowed your rejection well
Amplified, sing your song alone
Trace your footsteps home
Your hands are always reaching out of favor
Your kind are only good for bad behavior
Your mouth was never one to trust
You're always speaking out, falling far behind
Falling
Swallow time, falling down
Speaking out, falling far behind
Your time running out and talking down
Falling out of line
Your hands are always reaching out of favor
Your kind are only good for bad behavior
Your mouth was never one to trust
You're always speaking out, falling far behind
Falling out of line
3.Violet
作詞:Michael John Hanmer, Michael Rainbow
The tragic comedy divine
Paints the way to peace of mind
Leaving shallow lovers far behind
Past uncertainties combine
Bringing tears to sleepless eyes
Memory runs the course of time
Blood runs cold beyond the violet prison
For violent visions
And so the broken record plays
As you throw us away
We're never enough
We're drowning in cliches
So desperate to love
We're twisting every word they say
So we sleep through the days
Within the heat of passions war
Lust is spilled upon the floor
Staining red the wasted metaphor
The selfish need for something more
Claws in vain at closing doors
Scarring faces once adored
Tracing circles in the violet prison
For violet visions
And so the broken record plays
As you throw us away
We're never enough
We're drowning in cliches
So desperate to love
We're twisting every word they say
So we sleep through the days
4.Red Stars
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Matthew James O'halloran, Michael Rainbow,
Sara Taylor
Best of cruel intentions
Finding what they fail to mention
No truth, all pretension
Raise your hand to get attention
You give and we take it
You build it, we break it
You sign and we erase it
You feel it, we fake it
It's my red star, steal it
It's my red star, can't let go
It's my red star, conceal it
It's my red star, I know
Wasted education
Celebrating imitation
Misplaced admiration
Speaking for a generation
You give and we take it
You build it, we break it
You sign and we erase it
You feel it, we fake it
It's my red star, steal it
It's my red star, can't let go
It's my red star, conceal it
It's my red star, I know
5.Looking Glass
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Matthew James O'halloran, Michael Rainbow,
Sara Taylor
Waiting as I'm wanting to
Speaking as I'm spoken to
Changing to your point of view
Fading as I follow you
A boyish notion of false emotion
These words are spoken despite my love
A fool's devotion was set in motion
My eyes are open now
It's a glass cage so I can't pretend
You hide beneath the physical
I see it coming but I can't defend
You cut so deep, my belief is gone
My belief is gone, my belief is
Tell me what I want to say
Save me for another day
Break me, it's the game you play
Hate me as I turn away
A boyish notion of false emotion
These words are spoken despite my love
A fool's devotion was set in motion
My eyes are open now
It's a glass cage so I can't pretend
You hide beneath the physical
I see it coming but I can't defend
You cut so deep, my belief is gone
My belief is gone, my belief is gone
My belief is gone, my belief is
It's a glass cage so I can't pretend
You hide beneath the physical
I see it coming but I can't defend
You cut so deep, my belief is gone
My belief is gone, my belief is gone
My belief is gone, my belief is
6.Remember Me
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
It's safe to say there's only now
A place called home is just a memory away
I know I've done this all before
A thousand silent voices begging me to stay
Apologies all left unsaid
Secrets better left unspoken
Dreams laid down and put to bed
Rumors stirred and re-awoken
If I try to get away
How long until I'm free?
And if I don't come back here
Will you remember me?
It's safe to say there's nothing now
It's all so quiet but I can't forget the sound
A thousand voices call my name
A thousand hands that pull me
Back down to the ground
I turn away from what you are
Denying all that you have given
But find a place that's safe and far
In time, all will be forgiven
If I try to get away
How long until I'm free?
And if I don't come back here
Will you remember me?
7.Unfamiliar
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Matthew James O'halloran, Michael Rainbow
Lately nothing passes lightly
A heavy hand is holding me down
A breeze is just an unfamiliar sound to me
Just close the door
(It's all coming back to me)
Be still, my heart
('Cause it's all coming back)
Just close the door
(It's all coming back to me)
Be still, my heart
('Cause it's all coming back)
Lately nothing passes by me
And every hand is pulling me down
And praise is just an unfamiliar sound to me
Just close the door
(It's all coming back to me)
Be still, my heart
('Cause it's all coming back)
Just close the door
(It's all coming back to me)
Be still, my heart
('Cause it's all coming back)
Ooh, just close the door
It's all coming back
Ooh, just close the door
'Cause it's all coming back
All this meaningless direction
Feels like it pulls me away
It's hard to just forget what they say to me
Just close the door
(It's all coming back to me)
Be still, my heart
(It's all coming back)
Just close the door
(It's all coming back to me)
Be still, my heart
('Cause it's all coming back)
8.Walking With Strangers
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
Look around for a means to dissuade her attention
Can't remember the places or names that she mentions
My words are falling apart in spite of me
I'm stepping out of the light so she can't see
Don't think I'll miss her but I want to take her picture
When I've found a place where she can't find me
And she's falling asleep as she's walking with strangers
Talking cheap as the flies on the wall entertain her
Her world is falling apart in front of me
She's stepping into the light but she can't see
It's hard to miss her when she's posing for a picture
But I've found a place where she can't find me
My words are falling apart in spite of me
I'm stepping out of the light so she can't see
Don't think I'll miss her but I want to take her picture
When I've found a place where she can't find me
9.Weekend
作詞:Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
Lights out, boys sleepwalking on the weekend
Black out, two nights killing off a best friend
Fall out like soldiers walking off the deep end
Hands out, don't stop marching till the hearts rend
The time goes by and sets the stage
They play their parts and act their age
They never forget the lines that they say
Speaking slowly
I promise you one day
I promise you always
We'll make it out one day
I promise you always
Nights out, girls keep walking on the East End
White out, two lights shining on a dead end
Drawn out like circles trailing off the pavement
Stand out, don't stop marching till the hearts mend
As time goes by, we set the stage
We play the parts and act our age
We'll never forget the words that they'd say
Talking slowly
I promise you one day
I promise you always
We'll make it out one day
I promise you always
I promise you one day
I promise you always
We'll make it out one day
I promise you always
10.Kill The Lights
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
This story's missing a wishing well
No mirror to show and tell
No kiss that can break the spell
I'm falling asleep
Every prince is a fantasy
The witch is inside of me
Her poison will wash away
The memory
We kill the lights and put on a show
It's all a lie but you'd never know
Your star will shine and then it will fall
And you will forget it all
And after midnight we're all the same
No glass shoe to bring us fame
Nobody to take the blame
We're falling apart
Every story's a waiting game
A flower for every name
Their colors are paling
In the falling rain
We kill the lights and put on a show
It's all a lie but you'd never know
Your star will shine and then it will fall
And you will forget it all
Now you know it's so much better to pretend
There's something waiting for you here
Every letter that you wrote
Has found its way to me, my dear
You can make believe that
What you say is what I want to hear
I'll keep dancing through this beautiful
Delusional career
Faking every tear
Looking like a compromised suicide
Keeping all my dreams alive
11.Blue
作詞:Michael Rainbow, Sarah
Plastic blue invitations in my room I've been waiting here for
you
Reservations made for two sunlight fading
Black tongues speak faster than the car can crash
You supply the rumors and I'll provide the wrath
Romance is breaking every heart in two
Casting shadows in the pale shade of blue
Plastic blue conversations in my room saving every tear for you
Trusting every word untrue twilight fading
Fate changes faster than the death of light
You provide the envy and I'll provide the spite
Reflections cutting every face in two
Casting shadows in the pale shade of blue
12.Loves End
作詞:Michael John Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
Hands cover whispers of the lovers fright
Fear-cloaked renditions of that autumn night
Digging up rumors of the kids in the park
What awful things happened in the dark?
Take just one last dare
Pretend you don't care
Till twilight falls
Wait, is someone else here?
And I can't stop my tears
I've never been so scared
In the cellar buried six feet deep
The lover's shaken from a dreamless sleep
Nails clawing splinters from the ceiling and floor
Shrieking like the witches 'til his stitches are sore
Take just one last dare
Pretend you don't care
Till twilight falls
Wait, is someone else here?
And I can't stop my tears
I've never been so scared
Calling for the other
Searching for her lover
Secrets she discovers
Drain her face of color
One, two, three, four, underneath cellar floor
Five, six, seven, eight, lover will suffocate
One, two, three, four, underneath cellar floor
Five, six, seven, eight, lover will suffocate
One, two, three, four, underneath cellar floor
Five, six, seven, eight, lover will suffocate
One, two, three, four, underneath cellar floor
Five, six, seven, eight, lover will suffocate
13.Happy Birthday
作詞:Michael Rainbow
I think my friend said, 'I hear footsteps'
I wore my black and white dress to the
Birthday massacre, birthday massacre, birthday
I wore my black and white dress
I think my friend said, 'Stick it in the back of her head'
I think my friend said, 'Two of them are sisters'
'I'm a murder tramp, birthday boy', I think I said
'I'm gonna bash them in, bash them in', I think he said
Then we wished them all a happy birthday
We kissed them all goodnight, now he chases me to my room
Chases me to my room, chases me
In my black and red dress
I think my friend said, 'Don't forget the video'
I think my friend said, ' Don't forget to smile'
'You're a murder tramp, murder tramp', I think he said
'You're a murder boy, birthday boy', I think I said
I think my friend said, 'Stick it in the back of her head'
I think my friend said, 'Two of them are sisters'
'I'm a murder tramp, birthday boy', I think I said
'I'm gonna bash them in, bash them in', I think he said
I think my friend said, 'Don't forget the video'
I think my friend said, ' Don't forget to smile'
'You're a murder tramp, murder tramp', I think he said
'You're a murder boy, birthday boy', I think I said
14.Horror Show
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow
They're getting ugly, they're a horror show
And now we're laughing because they'll never know
That they have everything, we give them all of our own
And they tell us they're sick and they're all alone
They make fools of us together but we always think of them
All they're laughing and they're talking and they're wasting of
our time
And it always hurts to see them now that everything is different
We don't like to see their eyes 'cause they will never look the
same
They shut the door, we fell far behind
We try forgiveness but they cross the line
And now the moment has passed and we can't rewind
We are dead long before, we run out of time
They make fools of us together but we always think of them
All they're laughing and they're talking and they're wasting of
our time
And it always hurts to see them now that everything is different
We don't like to see their eyes 'cause they will never look the
same
They make fools of us together but we always think of them
All they're laughing and they're talking and they're wasting of
our time
And it always hurts to see them now that everything is different
We don't like to see their eyes 'cause they will never look the
same
15.Video Kid
作詞:Michael Rainbow
Next phase, next craze, next nothing new
Got the pretty boy beat him up black and blue
Broke the sissy boy's teeny toy heart in two
Turned him into a video kid like you
I know you're just pretending
There's no window for mistake
I know you see right through me
There's no promise left to break
Shot the pretty boy killed him on commodore
Need a new game, need a new something more
Got a new face got a new way to score
Got a voice like something I've heard before
I know you're just pretending
There's no window for mistake
I know you see right through me
There's no promise left to break
The message misleading
We're lying, we're cheating
We're only repeating
The motions preceding
I know you're just pretending
There's no window for mistake
I know you see right through me
There's no promise left to break
