Grotesque 01:56
"This is what's wrong and this is what's right. Solid black. Solid white. We own the lies, we own the truth. As old as time and the glow of youth. For the fires in the east, fires in the west, all things are beautiful. All things grotesque."

Dead End 03:41
Is it just for the time? Disappearing in lust – I’ll give you nothing. Can anybody save him? Make her beg for the pill. Sitting pretty and ripe – you’ll heal tomorrow. You’re nothing but a dead end She hides her head from the quivering ground – screams how did you know He throws a penny in the wishing well – said help me – where did you go Replace her sins in the whispering water – hear pianos She holds her ears from the loneliest sound – said help me – where did you go Where did you go Broken blisters in boots. Drink the whisky and wine so she can get through. I’m always gonna’ crave him. Drop the need for a thrill. Sittin’ lonely and shy - try again tomorrow. You’re nothing but a dead end She hides her head from the quivering ground – screams how did you know He throws a penny in the wishing well – said help me – where did you go Replace her sins in the whispering water – hear pianos She holds her ears from the loneliest sound – said help me – where did you go

Hero Within 04:03
Wicked greed – green on the paper Suffer please – he saw an angel spider weaves – she licks her fingers cry on me – hero within Break down the take down - the wind she will blow all abound – wrapped around her soul She waits while he breaks the stories that they told all inside a crystal lie they sold Reaching or breaching Creature with eyes of gold

My habit – you gonna know where you are - where you are - where you are My habit – you gotta know when to stop - when to stop - when to stop Infectious hexes - give or take sleep alone – with spiders and snakes in strange dark places – start the chase My habit – you gonna know where you are - where you are - where you are My habit – you gotta know when to stop - when to stop - when to stop Uh oh – it’s another day – I don’t suppose I can blink and make it go away but there’s a strange noise comin’ from the back porch buildin’ like a freight train – squealin’ like a spoiled kid. oh no – what do I see – the book of revelations opens right in front of me – but there’s a storm cloud brewin’ in a tea cup – spillin’ on a sidewalk – restin’ in my underpants My habit – you gonna know where you are - where you are - where you are My habit – you gotta know when to stop - when to stop - when to stop Uh oh – time is runnin’ out – the clock is tickin’ and it’s trippin’ and it’s laughing at me – and there’s a strange voice comin’ from the backroom – spreadin’ like a revolution stirring up a mutiny Reflection injection – live on fate come along – with the devils handshake in strange dark places – stop the chase

Tie your boots – shoot shoot hit the target – run – start with the left foot Hold me down with everything you’ve done follow with the right foot – the right foot Point a finger or a gun – use a perfect smile – slap with an open hand kiss my cheek – I’ve never bled so much – fight till’ we understand – misunderstand Cheated me bleed right through violent dreams in violent dreams – violent violent violent violent violent Hit the button – click click this is loud and clear – it started in your sleep Toys are cold – your momma tells you so it’s all you’ll ever need and never know Bite the bullet and your tongue – show your broken teeth – the dying chosen one kiss my cheek – I’ve never bled so much – it’s all we’ve ever done – we’re never done Cheated me bleed right through violent dreams in violent dreams – violent violent violent violent violent

White Room 03:19
He listens so hard but her words are made of glass cracks in mirrors – twist and bend the path in the white room – I want you – and we’re perfectly cut in two in the white room – I’ll be with you – in the shadows with a broken tooth run to the river when the jackal starts to laugh smokestacks that billow – breathing turns to gasps in the white room – I want you – and we’re dripping wet with honey dew in the white room – I’ll be with you – and you’re vividly in color, too He listens so hard – but her words will never last these broken mirrors – shattered bits of past in the white room – I want you – and we’re perfectly cut in two in the white room – I’ll be with you – in the shadows with a broken tooth vividly in color, too

Vails 03:09
The moon moves like you - all splintered and warm the birds in the pictures – don’t sing anymore My wish is for nothing kiss the leaves and I kick the trees My heart is made of vails simple as the night the sugar stops at nothing the end of the knife My wish is for nothing kiss the leaves and I kick the trees Can I faint in your shadows maybe smoke a cigarette and a shy girl gives you a snarl it’s not over yet My wish is for nothing kiss the leaves and I kick the trees It’s not over yet
