Burn, burn the house on fire
I'm so sick and tired
I can still remember your sound
It's cut, cut, cutting me down
I'm locked and loaded
You're so milk and roses
And I am just a letdown of your hound
It's cut, cut, cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down, slow poison
Save me one more hymnal
I have found my angel
Ah, ah, oh, she walks upon the ground
It's cut, cut, cutting me down
On an empty can
I'm a stranger in a strange, strange land
Gone, gone, just gone without a sound
It's cut, cut, cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down like slow poison
And all my dreams are only dreams
And all my schemes are only schemes
And if this is my punishment
Then I want my card to fit
Burn, burn the house on fire
I'm so sick and tired
I can still remember your sound
It is cut, cut, cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down like slow poison
It's cutting me like slow poison
Save me one more hymnal
I have found my angel
Ah, ah, oh, she walks upon the ground
Ain't a soul who's seen
A loser like me
it was she, it was she
She put the devil in me
Wasn't me, wasn't me
I don't have it in me
(That remains to be seen)
Girls like you
Don't need a thing
Cause girls like you
Hate everything
You're gonna kill me
When you hear this song
Does she still love me
Or was I wrong
(I'm losin' track, please take me back)
She's so bendable
She's so bendable
She's so bendable
Bleed in your own light
Dream of your own life
I miss me
I miss everything Ill never be
I torch my soul to show
The world that I am pure
Deep inside my heart
No more lies
A crown of thorns
An image formed deformed
The mark Ive borne
A mark of scorn to you
Consume my love devoure my hate
Only powers my escape
The moon is out the stars invite
I think Ill leave tonight
So that soon Ill find myself alone
To relax and fade away
Do you know whats coming down
Do you know I couldnt stay free?
I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free free
Free as the voices
Its all I need
I shall be free
You’re the women who made me a man
I was down you taught me to stand
I was made up of nothing
You put something inside
You opened my chest
And put that hurt in my eyes
Now I’ve got pain that I can turn to
When I wonder if I’m still alive
I was dead in the water
That left me dead in the water
I was made of nothing
You put your hands on my heart
Stained your fingers inside me
And you took me apart
You’re the woman who made me who I am
She could be found out dancin'
At ludlow st. and stanton
Oh you should've seen her
Shake it up like orangina
And even though she's a liar
We got on like a house on fire
Even though she's my friend
We never knew when to say when
Every little move she made was a ticker tape parade
And everything she'd say was a national holiday
And even though she's a liar
No one ever got me higher
And even though she's my friend
We never knew when to say when
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
She was at thompskin square
Staring at the grass
Trying to make her eyes turn green
But it never last
[ The Bravery Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] And even though she's a liar
No one ever got me higher
Cuz we never knew when to say when
Even though she was my friend
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
Over on 5th and C
She got her beers for free
And every time I came in there
She always laughed at me
She said, "why's this child in here?"
You look like you teach math
Your appled eyes betray
You've never known loneliness
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
With red hands and white knuckles
All this time I should have known
One of these days you'd follow me home
Mess up my room and proceed to tempt me
And no matter how good I am you learn to resent me
Stop, drop and roll
Stop, drop and roll
Stop, drop and roll
You're on fire
I'm stingy with words
All binge, no purge
You put the broke in broken hearted
After tonight
Who knows where we'll be tomorrow
What if we're never here again?
After tonight
This will be a lifetime ago
So let's stay up until the sky bleeds red
And we'll stop, stop, stop the world from moving
Stop, stop, stop the clocks from turning
Stop this night from fading away
This time is ours
If I could hold this moment in my hands
I'd stop the world from moving
I'd stop the clocks from turning
This time is ours
Inside a frozen memory of us
And we are motionless, motionless
Gone like a dream
That I have just awoken from
Fading away, just out of reach
And we are here
But I already miss you
Even as you're lying next to me
We're stop, stop, stop the world from moving
Stop, stop, stop the clocks from turning
Stop this night from fading away
This time is ours
If I could hold this moment in my hands
I'd stop the world from moving
I'd stop the clocks from turning
This time is ours
Inside a frozen memory of us
And we are motionless, motionless
And we are motionless, motionless
And we are motionless, motionless
We're stop, stop, stop the world from moving
Stop, stop, stop the clocks from turning
Stop this night from fading away, fading away
This time is ours
If I could hold this moment in my hands
I'd stop the world from moving
I'd stop the clocks from turning
This time is ours
Inside a frozen memory of us
And we are motionless, motionless
This time is ours
This time is ours
This time is ours
This time is ours
No brakes this time
I slit the line
But if you want me, it's cool
You can take me for a fool
I could slow down if you want me to
But just for you, just for you, just for you...
Carry me home, put me to bed!
Leave me alone, it's all in my head!
It's out of my hands, over the wheel
My only chance, my only appeal
What if you're here to save me from this?
If I disappear will I be missed?
I never know what I should do
Can I leave it up to you?
No brakes, it's true
No brakes, just you
Something to move me instead
Of this rolodex in my head
I never meant anything I said
When I see red, I see red, I see red...
Carry me home, put me to bed!
Leave me alone, it's all in my head!
It's out of my hands, over the wheel
My only chance, my only appeal
What if you're here to save me from this?
If I disappear will I be missed?
I never know what I should do
Can I leave it up to you?
Can I leave it up to you?
Can I leave it up to you?
Oh jack-o'-lantern man
We will see who's laughing then
Someday when push comes to shove
We will see who's laughing then
Oh jack-o'-lantern man
If you could see the rage inside of me
I could cut my veins and drown you in the flames
And I'd know, I'd know
I would know ecstasy
And I was only seventeen
Stir the blood spill the seed
Psilocybin all the time
Dirty water spill the wine
The birds outside, they never stop
Shut the window call the cops
Oh jack-o'-lantern man
I wanna see that smile turn cold surprise
[ The Bravery Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] We will see who's laughing then
When I piss in your hollow eyes
I wanna drown you like a kitten in the sink
I wanna see you bleed amethyst
Oh jack-o'-lantern man
We will see who's laughing then
with a skull full of piss
And I was only seventeen
Stir the blood spill the seed
Psilocybin all the time
Dirty water spill the wine
Kenneth Anger colored dreams
Underwater hide the screams
The birds outside, they never stop
We are faster, faster than pain
We are a nerve ending without a brain
We have evolved, we have no feeling at all
It is a brave new world
Raise a glass in salutation
We drink to our annihilation
Was and will just make me ill
It is a brave new world
And we are faster than pain
We are dogs without a name
We are marching soldiers off to claim
The brave, brave, brave new world
I wanna dream it all away
[ The Bravery Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] And take a soma holiday
I take a gram and I only am
It is a brave new world
Raise a glass in salutation
We drink to our annihilation
Was and will just make me ill
It is a brave new world
And we are faster than pain
We are numbers in a chain
We are marching soldiers off to claim
And you know me now
like a mother knows a child
And you know me now
like I came from your own body
I can feel your pulse like a moth inside a jar
And even this is still too far
Even this is still too far
I wanna be your skin
I wanna feel everything you feel
I wanna be your covering
So let them come like an army against us
I know you won't be afraid
Because I am the armor upon you now
And we are never betrayed
There is no ending between you and me
I wanna be your skin
I wanna feel everything you feel
I wanna be your covering
And I will hide you inside of me
With every breath in harmony
I wanna be your skin
You've got nowhere to run
You've got nowhere to hide
I know you won't escape this time
You can't run far enough
You can't run fast enough
You can't outrun my love
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm coming for ya
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm gaining on ya
You're moving fast
But you'll never outlast me
Hot, hot, hot pursuit
Yeah
You might think that I
Come on a little strong
But the real thing is
I can't wait too long
So give your distance now
'Cause time is running out
Until you finally see
You belong to me, you belong to me
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm coming for ya
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm gaining on ya
You're moving fast
But you'll never outlast me
Hot, hot, hot pursuit
Yeah
You've got nowhere to run
You've got nowhere to hide
I know you won't escape
This time
You can't run far enough
You can't run fast enough
You can't outrun my love
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm coming for ya
Hot pursuit, yeah
I'm gaining on ya
You're moving fast
But you'll never outlast me

You're moving fast
But you'll never outlast me
Hot, hot, hot pursuit
Yeah

If I put my hands around your wrists, would you fight
them?
If I put my fingers in your mouth, would you bite them?
So many things that I would do if I had my way with you
I can keep secrets that I know that you want me
You could dig your nails into my skin and you won't
stop me
You could twist and scream into the air but no one can
hear you here
And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you,
you had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
While your shouting friends that despise you to your
face
What would they say now if they saw you in this place?
Naked and breathless, could you live with this
disgrace?
Could you live? Could you live? Could you live with
this?
And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you,
you had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
If I put my hands around your wrists, would you fight
them?
If I put my fingers in your mouth, would you bite them?
So many things that I would do if I had my way with you
And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you,
you had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
If I put my hands around your wrists, would you fight them?
If I put my fingers in your mouth, would you bite them?
So many things that I would do if I had my way with you
I can keep secrets that I know that you want me
You could dig your nails into my skin and you won't stop me
You could twist and scream into the air but no one can hear you here

There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you,

The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly

The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
All I want is everything
Everything that I'll ever be
Everyone that's coming for me
Nothing happens and everything is changed
All I want is everything to stay the same
Will you give in?
Will you give in?
All I want is everything
All the words and the truths between
All I want is everything
Everything you're keeping from me
Nothing happens and everything is changed
All I want is everything to stay the same
Will you give in?
Will you give in?
I've been staring back in my eyes for a while
I think they never stop moving
All I want is everything
All the things that you think of me
All that you've tricked yourself to believe
Nothing happens and everything is changed
All I want is everything to stay the same
Will you give in?
Will you give in?
Will you give in?
Every morning I wake up and you are home
But in your eyes I see that I'm alone
You've left me with your body in my arms
But I can't feel you anymore - You are gone
I can touch your skin but you aren't there
Frustration burns in me, it's more than I can bear
I wanna take you in my fists and squeeze the life back into you
But there is nothing I can do - You are gone
And I can hold you in my hands
But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone
You've slipped away like a fistful of sand
You are gone, you are gone, you are gone
I am staring straight into your eyes
You never turn away or tell me lies
But you are with some other man while I am lying next to you
When I hold you I am just trying to feel
That thing inside of you that I once thought was real
To see that light I thought I saw, but it was never there
at all
I put these things in you I wanted to believe
But they aren't real it seems I made them in my dreams
I see allusions of the things I wanted you to be
And I see faces in the darkness, I hear voices in the air
I see shadows all around me, but no one's there
No one's there
I see faces, I see faces
You are speaking, but your're lips don't match the words
Are these just voices in my head?
I want someone one to love so badly I don't know what is
real, anymore
And I see faces in the darkness I hear voices in the air
I see shadows all around me, but no one's there
No one's there
I see faces, I see faces
I see faces in the darkness, I hear voices in the air
I see shadows all around me, but one's there, no one's
Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear
Like a snake in a suit spitting into the air
With a tongue like a needle and we're shot full of fear
White picket teeth and a big red alert
The life of the party and we pulled up our skirt
It's like poison
It's like poison
Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear
A fool is a devil and a devil's a fool
With a fork-tongue needle and you got us all fooled
A monkey doing tricks and we couldn't resist
If this isn't evil then I don't know what is
It's like poison
It's like poison
Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear
The faces all around me, they don't smile, they just crack
Waiting for our ship to come but our ship's not coming back
We do have time like pennies in a jar
What are we saving for? What are we saving for?
There's a smell of stale feeling that's drinking from our skins
The drinking never stops because the drinks absolve our sins
We sit and throw our roots into the floor
What are we waiting for? What are we waiting for?
So give me something to believe
'Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more to keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe
Some thing's always coming, you can hear it in the ground
It swells into the air with the rising, rising sound
And never comes but shakes the boards and rattles all the doors
What are we waiting for? What are we waiting for?
So give me something to believe
'Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more to keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe
I am hiding from some beast but the beast was always here
Watching without eyes because the beast is just my fear
That I am just nothing, now it's just what I've become
What am I waiting for? It's already done
So give me something to believe
'Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more to keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe
And I need something more to keep on breathing for
We are liars like the summertime
Like the spring, we are such fools
Like fall, we are false prophets
And like winter, we are cruel
I don't know what's wrong with us
They just made us this way
There's a hole in you and me
That pulls us together
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
Every day you bring me pain
And we savor it like rain
We hold it on our tongues
Just like wine
Someday back when we were young
I guess something just went wrong
The two of us are hung
From the same twisted rope
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
Oh Angelina
You are the sun and the moon
Every song I ever sang, I stole it from you
I knew that nothing could tear us apart, I never even gave it a second thought
I was so sure and I was wrong, Now every single thing I ever had is gone
Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away
Oh Angelina
I learned my lesson this time
I took you for granted for so long And now I just wanna die
Every thing I ever got, I never even gave it a second thought
I was so sure, I was so sure - Now there's only one thing I know for sure
Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away
Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away
Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away
Louisiana, in the Bucket of Blood
That's where they met, his eyes were like mud
Cause his whole life he had nothing to see
But he held on to her and he found peace
He'd take her walking down by North Shore
And he always told her
we're meant for much more
We outta go off somewhere so pretty
And then a storm came and fucked up the
Crescent City
And then they were left with nothing
She said nothing's not so bad
It could be the best time that we ever had
Every single day
I can feel them chip, chip chipping away
If only we could run, run from these swine
Oh baby we are wasted in this time
Someday if we try
I know we could fly, fly, fly, fly, fly
We shine like gold
Oh baby we were born to be adored
And I can feel them staring in my face
Like they're dig, dig, digging me,
digging a grave
It's like these people are dead they're so weak
And someone dug them up and gave them
words for their lips to beat
And then they were left with nothing
She said nothing is not so bad
Everytime you come around
There's a bouquet for me
A corsage of promises
And I am pinned
Like a butterfly on a card
I'm naked and I'm scarred
And you're so perfect to me
Violent ties with hands like a steeple
Tell me lies with a tongue like a needle
I let the words shot down my throat
A face like an iron fist
That I can never resist
I learn the ...
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
I'm stuck just like a pig
Roasting in your eyes
I'll believe anything that you want
You gotta teach me how to live
Cause you make me wanna die
You took it all, now you're all I've got
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
There's noises in my head
Just noises in my head
If I could I'd drown them all out
I'd bury all of these noises
From your tyrant mouth
You're just a noise in my head
You're just a noise in my head
I'll drown you out
And I'll bury all the noises
From your hateful little mouth
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Words of wisdom
Words of wisdom
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Tragedy Bound
Looking for clues
I'm starting to suspect she likes abuse
I'm starting to feel like she doesn't feel
Is there anybody in there?
Tragedy Bound
She is a mess
Her daddy was a demon watching her dress
He shriveled her down, wore her like a crown
Is there anybody in there?
All her life, she's bound to lose
Tragedy Bound
I feel sick
Her daddy was killed, her feelings were mixed
He wore a hole in her skin, now all the boys look in
Is there anybody in there?
Tragedy Bound
Now she's stuck
She can't even care enough to fuck
She's cutting herself just to see if it works
Is there anybody in there?
All her life, she's bound to lose
Tragedy bound
If I met this man
Whout would I say? How could I speak
Whenever I look back
On the best days of my life
I think I saw them all on T.V.
I am so homesick now for
Someone that I never knew
I am so homesick now for
Someplace I will never be
Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If I could do it all again
I'd go back and change everything
But time won't let me go
I never had a 'Summer of 69'
Never had a Cherry Valance of my own
All these precious moments
You promised me would come in time
So where was I when I missed mine?
Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If you gave me back those years
I'd do it all better I swear
Time won't let me go
Ba ba ba ba ba...
If I could go back once again
I would change everything, yeah
If I could go back once again
I'd do it all so much better
Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If I could do it all again
I'd go back and change everything
But you won't ever let me go
[Chorus]
With your long blonde hair and your eyes are blue
The only thing I ever get from you is sorrow (sorrow)
You're liked and fun;
Spendin all my money
You're out there playing your high-class games
Sorrow (Sorrow)
You never do what you know you 'outta
Something tells me you're the devil's daughter
Sorrow (Sorrow)
I tried to find her 'cause I can't resist her
I never knew just how much I missed her
Sorrow (Sorrow)
[Chorus]
With your long blonde hair and your eyes are blue
The only thing I ever get from you was sorrow (sorrow)
Your long blonde hair
I couldn't sleep last night
Split me wide open and look right inside
There's so many things that I tried to hide
Oh you see right through me
You always see right through me
Split me wide open, and cut me in two
There's nothing that I could ever hide from you
Oh you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me
Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open, you look right through
I give it all to you
Split me wide open, and cut it at all
My hands on your body like a blind man's on a wall
Oh you always show me, you're the only one who shows me
Pinned to a wall, I am hung from a tree
For all these drooling faces that can look up and see
But you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me
Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open and look right through
I give it all to you
Split me wide open
Split me wide open
Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open, you look right through
I give it all to you
Split me wide open
Split me wide open
Oh you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me
Split me wide open
Split me wide open
It's sweet Eliza
Remember me
I'm a liar
But not a cheat, no...
I think it's safe to say
That I got carried away
Eliza, it's fooling anyone
Forgive me if I'm out of line
I can't control myself sometimes
I think I'm sick but I might be well
I think I'm broke but it's hard to tell
I think I feel like I've never felt for you
It's sweet Cassandra
Remember me
You are no longer
The one I need, mmm...
I find it hard to tell
That I'm finally be an angel
And silence isn't fooling anyone
Forgive me if I'm out of line
I can't control myself sometimes
I think I'm sick but I might be well
I think I'm broke but it's hard to tell
I think I feel like I've never felt for you
ooh-oooh-oooh
ooh-oooh-oooh
I think I'm sick but I might be well
I think I'm broke but it's hard to tell
I think I feel like I've never felt for you
I know what your problem is, baby
Now take it from me
You think too hard, it makes you crazy
So come on sing songs with me, alright
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Lie in the sand
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Show me a smile
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Girl, take my hand
And walk a while with me
Hey sunshiney day
Hey sunshiney day
Take a walk with me
Hey sunshiney day
Hey sunshiney day
Walk a while with me
On a sunshiney day
Some days were meant to be alone
And this day was meant to for a girl
There's no way you're staying home
Come on out and let me see those pretty curls
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Up on the roof now
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Take me by surprise
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Tell me the truth now
And fill my eyes with you
Hey sunshiney day
Hey sunshiney day
Fill my eyes with you
Hey sunshiney day
Hey sunshiney day
Fill my eyes with you
Everyone knows what to do
But nobody told me
Looking at me like I knew
So nobody told me
Everyone knows where to go
But nobody told me
Been walking around like I know
Something no one told me
But I wanna know
Who left me out
I wanna know
Who let me down
And I wanna know
Who left me out
Who left me out
Everyone knows what to say
But nobody told me
Everyone around with a smile on their face
But nobody told me
Everyone knows what to do
But nobody told me
Looking at me like I knew
Something no one told me
But I wanna know
Who left me out
I wanna know
Who let me down
And I wanna know
Who left me out
Everyone knows what to be
But nobody told me
I wish I could see what they see
But nobody told me
So maybe it's just me
It must have been me
And I wanna know
Who left me out
I wanna know
Who let me down
And I wanna know
I've spent my whole life surrounded
and I've spent my whole life alone
I wonder why I never wonder why
The easiest things are so hard
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want something
Something for nothing
Something, something for nothing
I'm a beggar and I'm a chooser
I'm accused, I'm an accuser
But nothing's unconditional
I hold the whole world accused
I've only got myself to blame
I wonder why, I never wonder why
The easiest things are so hard
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want something
Something for nothing
Something, something for nothing
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want something
Something for nothing
Something, something for nothing
I'm a beggar and I'm a chooser
I'm accused, I'm an accuser
Tell me, come on, tell me what you can
Even as you wait for death, you're wiser than I am
Tell me what does it mean to exist
I am not a scientist, I must believe in more than this
And I cannot accept
Everything that's real
Is only what our eyes can see
And our hands can feel
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
Are just real as the time we spent
You'll always be close to me, my friend
This is not the end
I see, I can see you're so afraid
We're like the silver herd on you, even feel obscured
I wish, I wish I had some words to give
But all that I can think to say is I'll be with you everyday
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
I just realized the time we spent
You'll always be close to me, my friend
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
I don't care, I don't care what you believe
As long as you are in my heart, you're just as real as me
And maybe, maybe even more
Someone has touched so many lives
Can never, never die
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
I just realized the time we spent
You'll always be close to me, my friend
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
The birds are up when he collapses through the door
Spilling out in constellations on the floor
Soaked in liquor he's soft as bread ...
And everything that's left of him to beckon to his bed
He is a nocturnal always alone
But you'll speak in secret codes
That he has never known
In this world, but not of it
So he watches from above it
A visitor here, this is not home
Chorus
I am the spectator
I can see the world passing by from here
I am just a child, to a man
Back to the dust where i began
I was never even here at all
I am the spectator
I am the spectator
His eyes, like two cats, scratching in his head
Begging him for sleep, starving for a bed
But sleep, it never comes
so he ticks the time away
Hour after hour, hear them play their bells go
Chime chime chime, ticking ticking time (x2)
Chorus
I am the spectator
I can see the world passing by from here
I am just a child, to a man
Back to the dust where i began
I was never even here at all
I am the spectator
I am the spectator
I am the spectator
And the bells go
Chime chime chime, ticking ticking time (x3)
Chorus
I am the spectator
I can see the world passing by from here
I am just a child, to a man
Back to the dust where i began
I was never even here at all
I am the spectator
I am the spectator
Me and the ocean
Me and the sea
I don't think so
I don't think it was meant to be
Take me off, somewhere cold
Gradually just growing old
And someday maybe make of me an honest man
Yeah, well
I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Love in this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke
Down by the ocean, walk by the sea
All these people
They look so, they look so happy to me
What if all, I want want in this world
Turned out just to be an honest girl
Turned out just to make of me an honest man
Oh Yeah, well
I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Love in this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke
I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Love in this town, makes it hard to see
Things that aren't right in front of me
Oh yeah
Ba ba ba bada, ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba bada, ba ba ba ba
In this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke
I'm blind in this town, it's hard to see
Things that aren't right in front of me
I climbed up a mountain, and looked off the edge
And all of the lies that I never have led
Is one where I stayed with you, accross the sea
I wonder do you still think of me
I carry your image always in my head
Folded and yellowed and torn at the edge
And i've look upon it for so many years
Slowy im loosing your face
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
Sixs and sevens we live on jet planes
And so many faces I don't know the names
So many friends now and none of them mine
Forgotten as soon as we meet
All of these moments are lost in time
Your caught on my head like a thorn on a vine
But to hurt but to mend me that I wonder why
Do I wish i've never known you at all
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
The sun and the moon
An ocean of air
So many voices
But nothing is there
The ghost of you asking me why
Why did I leave
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
Oh the ocean rows us away away away
Downtown in the shade
Staring at the sunshine in my face
Telling me to come and hide, come and play
I'm telling you the sun never goes away
And all i do is talk, talk, talk all day
I'm laughing my life away
I'm staring at the sun again
Till everything's fading
It's like a swollen summer
What if I'm getting dumber?
What if I'm in denial?
What if they come and cop my style?
Downtown in the clear
All I know is nothing ever changes here
And I know there's no excuse and no defense
But my summertime never ends.
It's like a swollen summer
What if I'm getting dumber?
What if I'm in denial?
What if they come and cop my style?
It's like a swollen summer
What if I'm getting dumber?
What if I'm in denial?
What if they come and cop my style?
Swollen summer
Swollen summer
Swollen summer
Come, come like sugar my love
Until the bitter taste is gone
These images then burn my eyes
Like the thumbprints of the sun
Come, come everything to please me
Candy canes on parade
Lay me in the sun till every trace is gone
I am bleached away, bleached away
Oh sugar pill I believe you
Oh sugar pill I wanna eat you up up up up
[ The Bravery Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] Now I am blissed out
I have kaleidoscope eyes
I'm light as cotton
I am wide as the sky
This is where my thoughts come to die
And I am happy
Oh sugar pill I believe you
I saw Jacob, he lay in the street
He said the air out here is like amphetamine
And I never ever wanna sleep again
I wanna live 'till I die
They took all his money and all that he had
But he smiled with his eyes
and his face was blood red
And spit would run from his mouth when he said
I wanna live 'till I die
'Cause I am alive and there's blood in my arms
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
I will live 'till I die
'Till I die
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
I am born again today and
all my sins are washed away
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
Jacob sat on the roof and he said
Some day the earth will cast out its dead
If you dwell in the dust then wake up and sing
I will live 'till I die
Jacob smiled when he said to me
I am not waiting on the Red Sea
To open up and rain pearls on me
I will live 'till I die
'Till I die
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
I am born again today
and all my sins are washed away
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
As long as I live and there's blood in my arms
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
There's more inside of me than skin and bones
I am born again today
and all my sins are washed away
There's a vessel and it's sinking at sea.
An apparition that's beckoning me.
As the cold dark night brings on the sweat.
I slowly drift away.
Stuck down in the bottom of your cylindrical state of mind.
What are we running from?
There's a distant sound of a melody.
Release me from this place.
All like to live with sedative under the skin.
Bury it, carry the cure.
Just let emotion set devotion within your heart to collect the death we
Sow.
Step out from the moonlight like it's a game we play.
The checkerboard is tainted drops of red will lead the way.
Black are the lies. Gold are the tongues of the glorified.
Command her seas of the blood in me.
Stuck down in the bottom of your cylindrical state of mind.
What are we running from?
There's a distant sound of a melody.
Release me from this place.
All like to live with sedative under the skin.
Bury it, carry the cure.
Just let emotion set devotion within your heart to collect the death we
Sow.
All like to live with sedative.
All like to live with sedative under the skin.
Just let emotion set devotion within your heart to collect the death we
Sow.
Collecting sanity, simply ready, for the life that wins surely.
Moments lost searching for a dream that's real
From my heart
I'd give it all away just to know
Drifting away
In truth revealed
With perfect order life repeating endlessly
Light streaming from below
This is life reborn
From the shadow to the light
Moving through the time
It's a cycle that repeats
Forever
Don't touch the spinning wheel
Risking progression just for a little taste
But it's so natural
Call it human if you wish to save face
Losing control
Go with the flow
Get swept in the undertow
Where do we go
You ask in simple question
Let me show you
Give me your hand and we shall fly
Seeing all from infant eyes
Moving all through me
It's a cycle that repeats
Believe in memories to resurrect me
Besieged by falling dreams
Hold them tightly
Adorn my wings to thee, and use them nightly
I'm neither angel nor a demon spawn
Though some will call me god
Gravity is just a law I've wrought
Hear temptation take the sky for all to see
Sheer elation to write in history
I'm neither angel nor a demon spawn
Though some will call me god
Gravity is just a feeble plot
When I said I'd never kneel again
What I really meant
Was (fucking) pull the pin because time is spent
Unite with ravens on their shadow flights
As my nocturnal right
Gravity is just a mortal's vice
When I said I'd never feel or see
Contest to modern theory
Incapable of any progress
Analyzed, developed
Imitating consciousness
At least what it seems to be
Uniform and unrevieling the machine
Cut off
The silent space
Cut off
The silence
I'm aware of ancient myths
That signal to our coming
Fare the well
Humanity
Time waits
For none to come
The dying age of these
Of those
feeble beings is closing
What should we do with their lives
Forgive them for trespass
Spare them termination
Or let them die
Touched by the hand of the creator
Tantalizing the will of the maker
Subject to a wide array of thoughts emotions
Held by this rationality
Worlds collide
No peace of mind
Consciously evolving
Conceived in machines
Separated by perceptions of these dreams
Elevate this warped sense of reality
I can't understand myself
Touched by the hand of the creator
Tantalizing the will of the maker
Subject to a wide variety of thoughts emotions
Held by this reality
Feeling for the first time
Awake and more than alive
Reaching into infinity
Aware of a greater world
Though you can give no more inspiring false security
I've got the reason to alter belief
Selfish paintings diamonds mutilate
You can't erase the way I'm unappreciated
But I can't sleep tonight
Embrace of the drink
Be hollow, swallow the pain
Splitting the fields
All the noise agitates
The stars have not aligned in your favor
Cross the line of obscenity
Ignoring the signs
The smoke in your eyes
Carelessly
Look to find a way, to love all the past promises, to keep you washed away.
Sever the ties
Broken by the black and white
Now fade away
The stars have not aligned in your favor
Cross the line of obscenity
Ignoring the signs
The smoke in your eyes
Carelessly
Look to find a way, to love all the past promises, to keep you washed away.
Laid in the ground
Were lost far beyond the clouds
Staring in the darks of hell, it's me.
Along the edge of belief
A heart always in the stars will never fade
Decay in the ground
Were lost far beyond the clouds
Pray in the dark for now
Prey on the sounds
And silence the darks around
Strip away all the access components
Unveil a picture one sought to hide
Personalities are like fiction
The derivative truth but with no substance
Violence and hate,
Nourishment, territory and mate.
We are the product of some experiment
While most live in ignorance
Some cant except
The last thing we see is obsession, depth of insanity
Follow the source into the ground
Feeling all vibration flow inside of you
We create the sound
Like our fathers long before us
We've forgotten how
Sun down
Swiftly a less passive creature emerges
Mark the august steps
We'll shine the way
Still the path remains the same
Some may find their own way
Forever like me thirst for a pool of consistency
Catch a bug for knowledge and the structure comes down
A counter intuitive attack
Speak no evil and watch it flourish
Reach into the void
Touch the heart of darkness
Reach for the light
Feel the hand of god
The uncertainty of my existence
Can be decided by choice of a path I must walk
So, sick monotone culprit
Come on down and we'll talk about it
Bow down to the gods
Or keep on walking further.
On the cusp of our enlightenment we march
With the sun at my back
I take my first step outside shading my thoughts
and perceptions.
Done from the truth I'll never run
Be it the light or the shadow
I walk in hand with all
Born of nothing
My thoughts are unconditional
And I despise the façade of the original martyr
Deep with the void
Higher
Searching for the light
We leave this world behind
The violent twisting of the fates
The eminent collapse of our current state
Born of nothing
My thoughts are unconditional
And I despise the façade of the original martyr
Deep with the void
Higher
Searching for the light
We leave this world behind
Bow down to the gods
Or keep on walking further.
So many reasons why one should never entertain the taste of the red
A cry for a life of innocence is key to her head
Keep running back to kill because it might make it easier
A fear that keeps you chained down to the ritual adhere
You're a slave born into a dark world of disease
A slave that's longing for a rich way
Learning to love a disaster
Direct your soul in the essence of light
To draw the blood of the master
Flee
The stains on your wings now carry the fray
Selfishly
Embraced the glory vengeance brings
Hold, curl in tight
Illuminate the light
Punish me, punish me
An eye for an eye, an eye for the wicked
Just the sight of me
Your cold intention, burn intuitions
But with a smile on his face
Exist like you can last within this wretched place
So please forgive what I've become
Learning to love a disaster
Direct your soul in the essence of light
To draw the blood of the master
Flee
The stains on your wings now carry the
Coldest zeal
Extracted from the omen's life
One steady hand in victory
Darkness weeps
As love informs under a pure and present night
Point from the eye, endure the way
So many reasons why one should never entertain the taste of scarlet
Scarlet
So many reasons why one should never entertain the taste of the red
A cry for a life of innocence is key to
Learning to love a disaster
Direct your soul in the essence of light
To draw the blood of the master
Flee
Freedom beyond or control
Partition, they break out in endless stride
I'm on the floor in travail
Faithful days fall
Memories hold
Free my soul
Seeking within
The curtain call
Fleeing our fate
Every step now recalled
Down the drive
Staying so close
Retraction weighs my soul
We are thunder
We are all the space in tow
Now again
This happening
My handle is honest calculation
Free of the pain
Seeking the glow
We both need it so
Time will give way
Time will formulate
Seeking within
The curtain call
Fleeing our fate
Every step evolved
Don't deny
Staying so close
Creation is our goal
Discretion, the only thing that made me incomplete
Cast the sail, just to spin this fate
Cross the empty sect in flight
Pleasant memories
Redefine all that's left
The sound it makes me scream
I can hear your voice at night
(Your light lost in a waking dream within)
Freedom is not of control
Endless the chase, pushing through
I'm so engulfed
Falling to strain, but I still persist
I'd like to paint this tapestry
With our blood
To represent the symmetry
Finding a sickened result of possibility
Refuse the violent source and pain that made you
Left to deny that it will change with no solitude
Let us take this train
Leaving the form, stretching far beyond what I can see
Chasing the race
Left to complete
My revelation
Reaction creates the fall
Realize
These are broken words
Shattered thoughts amend
See beyond the only present road
Just let go
Counsel to ascend
See beyond the only present hold
Let go
Cannot comprehend
Leave it all to find a moment's love
I am
Working to be
Complete
No more adversity
Growing consciously
My revelation
Reaction is not the call
Realize
On my new self
Rising on my own
Sage advice, embrace wisdom
Hang the past
Take the helm
Fashion a new future to live
In your flame
I see regret
I've awakened
To feel a piece of distant harmony
How could I not see
Possibilities and unlimited passion
Hello luminescent being
Walking outside of my last identity
Celebrate
For in the end
We'll meet inequality
I see light
As we grow and while
she nails in the prophet.
Amoung the day she saw diamonds and ghosts.
The ground is betrayed,
the lifeless the resperated fall to dirt.
Behold as the water flow within.
The roots of life now sprout to this.
Bent and stirred up earth.
The diseased shall see new light.
Forget the figures.
Sever the distance between,
who we are and never will be.
The shift of "true man kind".
To see us truely shine.
This would bend me.
As i fold in time.
But the holders of survival,
Lost the way
Feel the world below me
Painlessly ascend
Torn away dissolving the life I know
Grasp the light
Feel the glow enfolding
Exaltation
Isolate the answers are truths from lies
Loss of faith
The path unravels before me
Unholy day
I'm letting go
Void the past, create the new
Separate the few because I hold ability to lead
Astray
Now living through every day on the path between
The frozen lines
Now no one ever will know about this experience
Will someone for once step back
And gaze upon the world through my eyes
Drawn behind the point of view
Seal us from the truth
On our own the fear of life decays
Time alone reveals our fatal aspect of arrogance
In life we're not the only ones
Free from the walls I'm alive
Lost the way
The path unravels before me
It starts as one festering feeling
The kind that cuts from the flesh down to the soul
No way to make amends for the time behind the door
Street lights feed lies straight to the mind of the
wishful wanderer
How could he give up?
No second chances to say goodbye.
Wrapped in this cold, nostalgic energy from the cries
of the ones who are
Buried
Ascend beyond.
Life is ruthless and shot full of pain.
It lifts you up, leaves you out in the rain,
And it hurts just to know that you're not coming back
again.
I will miss you my friend
Memories like a slug to the brain
Paint the walls with a love that will stain the darkest
of nights
You left to join the stars and I cannot shake this off
my chest.
In death we grieve 'till all hell predicted from this
realm
In time we will meet again.
Suddenly I can feel the connection between dimension
ties
Open gut on the floor. Trembling down to the core.
What is this?
It's been a long ride without you
I'm lost inside my own world.
There's not a single day where I've feigned the
acceptance,
But it's a somber stroll down this road that we call
life.
The silence still is crawling out of my sedated sight.
How can I be free?
Wrapped in this cold, nostalgic energy from the cries
of the ones who are
Buried
Ascend beyond.
Life is ruthless and shot full of pain.
It lifts you up, leaves you out in the rain,
And it hurts just to know that you're not coming back
again.
I will miss you my friend
Memories like a slug to the brain
Paint the walls with a love that will stain the darkest
of nights
