> It was All Saints Day
Wind and rain hit my face Ripped apart from lack of grace Now so torn You never said All of this would end so strange Walk to a church across the bridge Find my shame Never been the type to confess It all seemed to waste away When your double-tongued mouth opens wide Everybody knows you can't hide forever November fades Never could put this mind to rest Step in the cold and on the mess Felling scorned I found myself Hinting with nothing to give or show Never gave or cared (a care), until now Now it's late Never been the type to confess It all seemed to waste away When your double-tongued mouth opened wide Everybody knows you can't hide forever Pariah prophet faltering way too much Crazed crusades got me in a crux Like a mute without a voice With a bottle in my hand, make some noise It was All Saints Day... |

Crowning of a Heart Crowning of a heart, textures and shades A bitter London night on the motorway You looked so divine, back in the seat Wicked desires ablaze in me Back inside the house, into the room Watching as the lights slowly fade from view Couldn't even talk, what could you say? Every thought just racing away Crowning of a heart, textures and shades Crescents in her eyes as we gaze away |

The curtain thins
Violins announce the score is over The symphony clears the folded chairs And walk towards the snack bar And I forgot what the libretto was all about At eight o'clock you drop me off And not a word was spared for us Drinks at ten, we're off again The crowds and bouncers stare at us And the last one out the car fills the meter up Don't say your name, just dance with me Oh no, my ride is gone it's time to leave Then racing for the sink I shove my head in And the world looks like heaven It's all white |

Are you asleep, are you in a dream?
The copper shades of a morning Distant lights beckon and fade Unwritten songs of another day I fear that you would never be Every song in the world for me I took your hand, led you astray You cursed the worlds I longed to save Is heaven to you a perfect place? The look of sorrow on a sufferer's face A field of lives to sow and to reap That some of us will never see? Why is it I don't feel the same? Are my longings to be blamed For not seeing heaven like you would see Why is a song the world for me? What is forgiveness? It's just a dream What is forgiveness? It's everything |

The only sin in this world of pain
In this world of shame In this world of heartache The only sin in this world unjust In this world of lust In this world distrusting The only sin in this world corrput Where passions erupt And end abrupt Is a crime With no great gestures cry Its eyes, with no great evils shine Here among all the vicious beasts With their blood lust feast Ordained by black priests Here among poison viper's bite A police gunfight In the unknown night Is a man With no great master plan No deadly weapon clutching in his hand You'll never see the light In the darkest night Never see the light Never see the light When the boredom comes If you're one of the boring ones The only crime in this violent place With lies two faced Where loves disgraceful Crimes committed with sharpened knives And wasted lives Of those who are forced To shove And murder the peace dove There is no higher calling from above You'll never see the light Quell this appetite Never see the light Never see the light When the boredom comes When you're one of the boring ones |

You wanna scream? Knowing this is all a dream Because all you see is blood You're in fear You're in denial You better take care Because all you see is blood rites You look into the mirror Then you step into the mirror Then you falling through the mirror All is blind It's blinding your life This fear is going after me So bright I can barely see Is this all just in my head I look around and see that Everything is turning red You wanna fight? You wanna scream? Knowing this is all a dream Because all you see is blood |

Eyes at night never see the day
Because it's not in my nature Golden wings rise from the plane They burn above the red earth Scale these walls in front of me Have you ever stopped to wonder... Why they forced your voice to turn From silence to a caterwaul? Why they forced your voice to turn From silence to a caterwaul? Never knew I could feel this way So old and unremembered Never thought it would slip away And fall like September Scale these walls in front of me Have you ever stopped to wonder... Why they forced your voice to turn From silence to a caterwaul? Why they forced your voice to turn From silence to a caterwaul? I heard your caterwaul... And what has tried to bound me I've severed every tie Place your arms around me And we'll leave the rest behind What was I to say? How was I to know? Was it your soft voice that said so? What was I to say? How was I to know? Was it your soft voice that said so? What was I to say? How was I to know? Was it your soft voice that said so? What was I to say? How was I to know? Was it your soft voice that said so? |

All sewn up
Pull out the seams Take your call Your voice is static Far from my reach I burn the page Images are blurred Am I afraid? Around my throat You came so close To stopping me Alive in jail, alive and well I cannot leave Innocent accident Find my pulse Trapped in a locked box Teeth in a grind All night amphetamine Noise to the tape Comes like a shattered beast Cast a shade Your mouth destroys me Come down dawn in one piece Come down dawn to find some peace Driven to shambles on a tip I never said that I would quit And the next song takes over Quickly I said Because your feet need to hit the floor And wake your mind up Because the body needs a little more And you step out from the porch Into the street And the night will have its way with you And you find a paper on the wall And see the slogan needs an audience And you give it a new look You were trying to take a stab You try to take a stab You try to make something happen And the colors saturate into the walls of the buildings A defeated deposition A nexus A movement to fruition A middle finger to the institution A middle finger to the institution A middle finger to the institution |

Wasting away the better part of the day
In the bus on the docks of the UK We walked down the street on that all Hallows Eve But couldn't wait to get back to the US of A The torture of eight days straight Without sight of your face is so frightening Hoping to make it straight Or find signs of a bite that won't fade like poison In London we played half an hour a day For a house full of neds who are wanting us dead In Glasgow and Leeds we find signs of relief An escape from our grief with a fistful of E's Eight day hell You're in an eight day hell |

Ride the apocalypse
Coming through the city side Fallen angel no need to hide All bodies collide and fate decides Where vengeance hits Where our love will fit I can't find your face I can't see a trace In a world coming to a close I'm so damned I can't win With my heart in my hands again Take your hurt A muse of sin With my heart in my hands again And this is where it began Shot through a shattered lens And there is virtue in lonliness In vacant lots and florescent malls In one room coffins and crowded halls There is nothing to be done We have lost all control I walk in the shadows of your tortured realm I'm so damned I can't win With my heart in my hands again Take your hurt A muse of sin Passing glance forgotten Reason to doubt So pry your eyes From a film that never ends I'm so damned I can't win With my heart in my hands again Ride the apocalypse Coming through the city side There is nowhere to hide Ride the apocalypse Fallen angel no need to hide |

Eyes obscured, by those bangs
Sun is shielded, by your shades Kick it on the corner Leather coat and safety pins You got some ? news And you smoke your ? cools And it's 1977 You were rocking out of town Will last night ring in your ears? (With last night ringing in your ears) Kids are hopped up now They are ready to go In this burned out, shell of a place Eveyone, everybody, hustles around They were looking for that faraway/fiery court To make this troubled sound You were rocking out of town Will last night ring in your ears? (With last night ringing in your ears) Kids are hopped up now They are ready to go You said they'd hate you first But now they're coming 'round You said you were a curse But now your look has changed. |

It was there that I saw you
And it was there that I came As evening sighs, rises up against the skyline Let me come and have my leis You were fair and fey as a sun that evil day We were bold and life was great But as time went on I wondered what went wrong I wondered what became of you Let me hold you in my arms, dear And let me melt in the heat of your gaze And let the clock strike one, time and mind go marching on Let our sense of self decay It was there that I saw you In the heat of a summer's embrace But as time went on, I wondered what went wrong I wondered what became, became, became, became, became of you |

Now that our ties are served
Let us not wonder whether As we say goodbye We are ready to take the dive Grieve, but not grieve together Let it drag us down, let it fade Let it dive, let it die, let it fade out of sight Mourn with nothing to say Lost as those sweet warm other days Gone are those times forever Let it dive, let it die, let it fade out of sight Let it dive, let it die, let it fade Let it drag us down, let it come between you and I Where we born to despair There will always be something there Deeds done but not forgiven? Let it dive, let it die As long as one of us goes on living Let it fade out of sight What's done is done, no reason to apologize Let it drag us down, let it come between you and I Let it dive, let it die, let it fade |

Another failed and hopeless year Of wasted life and wasted time Long ago you sang a tune Of running from a painful youth And now it's dry, you're wondering why Talk to me, reveal how your life must seem All the wonderful things that you could never achieve Now you're out of time, your life is dry, you're wondering why Remember how it used to be You were young and love was cheap And every night was fire and wine Now you face another year In a lonely state, in an empty place Wiping dry your crying eyes Wipe and dry your crying eyes Talk to me, reveal how your life has been All the wonderful things that you could never achieve Now you're out of time, your life is dry, you're wondering why I lost the rainbow Behind that cloud, I lost the rainbow there It's hard getting over all the rain It's hard getting older all the same |

Like a voice that commands Rain drops fall Like the blood from your hands Pray to God But I doubt that he's listening This world is a gutter That he likes to piss in tonight Millions of people Quietly sleep Dreaming of deserts As the puddles grow deep Dark clouds of rage Black out the sun The rivers will run Red with their blood No place left dry No place of shelter for which to run People huddle in mass Waiting for the storm to pass But it's just begun Millions of people All of you people Dream of the sandman But the sandman has turned to mud Rain falling down Is this another great flood? The rivers are running Red with our blood |

Hear the noise back in town Let's gather everyone And go see what they're up to now Driving in, Driving out From hotel to the bar All our friends are here But somehow we seem so divided We're the voice crying out Screaming every song Not that anyone understands Diving in, Diving out the terrified crowd All our bands are here But somehow they seem so divided If you want to see where the fight is Look around... I hear the sound of a voice inside my head Saying things that I can't understand Telling me a life may soon be dead I wonder from what hand The words they say are too hard to conceive I try my best to never listen Can't you see I'm struggling to conceal These thoughts from everyone? It's not that I don't care And I don't want to hurt you It's just the worst I fear is coming out Coming out of me You know I've heard you say that I'm not real I know you think that I don't understand Truth is I'm trying hard to deal this is not what I had planned It's not that I don't care It's not that I don't love you It's just that I am here To put you out of your misery All of you lovers who think you're in love I'll put you out of your misery All of your children born under the sky I'll put you out of your misery venom that you can't conceive Is pouring out of the depths of me You think you're free, you've been deceived I'll put you out of your misery You think the future is warm and bright But it is death and I am your destiny You think you'll be protected by God I'll put you out of your misery I was put down to bring you down and put you out. |

I had a house on a rock I turned around and it had gone to rot All that was left of me were walls of doubt I asked a question but the world returned with silence All that I wanted to know is where'd everyone else go? I had a dad, I had a mom I had a family, don't know what went wrong I watched them helpless as their blood turned sour Wanted to scream for them but had to stand in silence All that I wanted to know is where'd everyone else go? I had a band, had a song I had a vision, where's my vision gone? I turned inside to find the walls of doubt My mind was stripped of sound, I had to stand in silence All that I wanted to know is where'd everyone else go? |

Grinning from a mask of hollowed bone Where a human is somewhere to be found But where I don't know And things couldn't be better From behind the halls we cannot pass Hear the muffled traces of a boyish laugh Hear the monster screaming ""What have I become?"" Before his looking-glass And things couldn't be better This is one fine life This is one fine wine This is one fine wife This is one fine lie And things couldn't be better They are the best |

With history, your bluest grace Falls apart, cascading down Speak to me of beautiful hate Of island chains swept with the tide Tragedy ripening on The coral leis of a conquering king They're swept away Oh, but not lost Beneath the waves of trembling stars The road winds towards The windward side My soul is saved by these city lights My face is framed by the blanket of night They're swept away Oh, but not lost Was I too proud to sat, or to wish for Words that I knew were forbidden? Because I don't want to know I didn't want to see what I saw When I looked in the distance They're swept away Oh, but not lost |

> How can anyone be so unkind
As to want to take another's piece of mind? Is acceptance so implausible? Well I know how the best will fall And the rest will follow. It's important to recognize In this world we live there is nothing worth dying It's enough to say ""hello"", we're all human But I know how the best will fall And the rest will follow Is it so easy to resign To ruin this world for everyone? I guess when it's all said and done It's just something in our design. We are all of us so capable of The greatest acts of hate and the worst acts of love I wonder sometimes what's the matter with us all And I know how the best will fall And the rest will follow... |

> Lying on the grass
Afternoon, there's always something happening Friends go floating gently by I'm listening to a song inside my head Although the summer's past Those mythic dreams would never last Nor do I care anymore And if it makes you sad Remember all the things you have That can't be bought Recollection brings me back Sad to think that it was just a fantasy We'd already accepted that Which many others struggled to believe And though it makes no sense I know there are no accidents I've no fear anymore And if it makes you sad To give up dreams you've always had That can't be caught It just can't be fought. Looking back at '91 Reflecting on those things we could have Said and done The dancing lights across a crowd Remind us of another town That's dead and gone It's just dead and gone Take me to that summer past And tell me is it really worth remembering? I realize that music then Was really just a song in my head And though the fun has past Those mythic dreams would never last Have no fear anymore And if it makes you cry To look ahead well dry your eyes It can be done Yes, it can be done. |

Talking 'bout things we've seen Paris to Oslo seem like dreams Looking back, was it real? You know how things sometimes feel You can run but you can get no further than Three city blocks from where you began Caught in a wasted state of mind Here you come, here you come Now you're gone Where will it take me? Why am I waiting? Caught in a stasis, feel like I've wasted all this time With people and places who've never related or desired |

Told a lie about yourself
It felt so good to deceive To pull the wool over everyone Tell them whatever they'd believe You missed the train and now you're gone To join the faceless everyone Your a name on a phone list I've crossed off I've pushed you back to square one And if I fall then I'll stand back up Learning how to run is half the fun Somehow I know that there must be something better No one's going to have power over me If there's a sign above the door That says you have to hang your coat But your wanting me to pay the doorman with my soul I think that I will be moving on Your witches web is hanging over my sleep My one half lies awake, the other in a dream Somehow I know that there must be something better No one's going to have power over me |

Told a lie about yourself
It felt so good to deceive To pull the wool over everyone Tell them whatever they'd believe You missed the train and now you're gone To join the faceless everyone Your a name on a phone list I've crossed off I've pushed you back to square one And if I fall then I'll stand back up Learning how to run is half the fun Somehow I know that there must be something better No one's going to have power over me If there's a sign above the door That says you have to hang your coat But your wanting me to pay the doorman with my soul I think that I will be moving on Your witches web is hanging over my sleep My one half lies awake, the other in a dream Somehow I know that there must be something better No one's going to have power over me |

from ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead - Worlds Apart (2005)
Random lost souls have asked me
"What's the future of rock 'n' roll?" I say "I don't know, does it matter?" This and that scene, They sound all the same to me Neither much worse nor much better. We're so fucked these days We don't know who to hate or who to praise Yet we consider this our suffering and pain When we're so privileged, a fact We all forget about as We go whinging all over the place. How they laughed as we shovelled the ashes Wrath hath soured Blood and death, we will pay back the debt For this candy store of ours. Look at those cunts on MTV With their cars, and cribs, and rings and shit Is that what being a celebrity means? Look, boys and girls, here's BBC See corpses, rapes, and amputees What do you think now of the American dream? And our soccer moms and dads Who raised us brats on those TV ads I know that they sleep at night Their conscience is intact They've convinced themselves of that Giving money to Jesus Fucking H Christ How they laugh as we shovelled the ashes Of the twin towers Blood and death, we will pay back the debt Of this candy store of ours Of this candy store of ours Of this candy store of ours |
