- Afterglow
Lay down your arms and surrender to mine
Let me release you from your tangled skein
Burn down your temples and your holy shrines
Sift through the ashes for the truth that shines
No more weeping or wringing of hands
Come with me to the promised land
Close your eyes and we'll go down slow
We're gonna drown in the afterglow
- Amelia
Daddy says "Come and sit on my knee"
Daddy says "You're the only girl for me"
'Cos Amelia, "You're Daddy's favourite girl"
Amelia, "Daddy loves his little girl"
Daddy comes in the dark of night
Daddy say "Don't be scared, it'll be alright"
Amelia, "Daddy hates to see you cry"
- Beautiful Chaos
Beautiful chaos, come wreak your revenge
Come shower me with your madness, so sweet in your intent
Shoot me full of holes and let your colours bleed
You give to me amuse and the poetry that I need
And there's so many shades, so many shades, shades of green
I'm laying in the dark and listening to the rain
Reminds me of you and makes me sad all over again
- Belladonna
You be the boy and I'll be the girl
I'll be your toy if you will shake my little world
I'll dress and parade for you in your finest satin and lace
I'll drag your razor down my legs and I'll, I'll paint my face
Don't let every little thing drag you under
'Cause life can be so full of joy and wonder
- Beyond The Pale
Cold still waters running deep
Pale before the eyes
Ravaged
By the hands that feed
Thunder clouds the skies
Drifting with the tide
Floating with the stream
The howling winds have gathered strength
- Black Mountain Mist
Listen
To the silence
Of the breaking of my heart
From a lowly vale
To the rolling hills
You and I
Lie worlds apart
Time is catching my breath
- Butterfly On A Wheel
Silver and gold and it's growing cold
Autumn leaves lay as thick as thieves
Shivers down your spine chill you to the bone
'Cos the mandolin wind is the melody that turns
Your heart to stone
The heat of your breath carving shadow on the mist
Every angel has the wish that she's never been kissed
A broken dream haunting in your sleep
- Daddy's Going To Heaven Now
Come close my baby girl
I've got something I need to say
I'll miss you my darling child
I'm so sorry I gotta go away
So say goodbye cos daddy's going to heaven now
So say goodbye cos daddy's going to heaven now
Remember I've no regrets
- Dance On Glass
Run you ragged
Torn and Jagged
Sharp tongued, ripped and ragged
Couldn't find the party line
Gee whiz, it's happy time
Mirror, mirror, reflects me hazy
The heat's on, I'm running round crazy
Here's the road, didn't miss a trick
- Dragonfly
When you're scared and fell all alone
Reach out for me
In the cold and dark of night
Reach out for me
I will always be there for you
No matter what you say or you do
I will always shine hard for you
And light your way
- Dream On
Every time that I look in the mirror,
all these lines on my face getting clearer.
The past that's gone,
in the night like dusk to dawn. (Not sure about that)
Isn't that the way?
Everybody's got their price in life to pay.
I know nobody knows,
- Evangeline
She knows the mystery
Of masks and of veils
She bestows ecstasy
In the torture that she sells
She'll bind you, blind you, make you plead
For love and mercy on your hands and knees
She'll make you scream and beg for more
She'll put the pain inside you that you adore
- Even You May Shine
Sone crazy holy roller trying to sell you Jesus
Trying to sell you helter skelter
He sells you genocide, he sells you kingdom come
Now watch the little piggies run for shelter
Cease to exist, just come and say you love me
Welcome to the family, meet Sadie and Gypsy
They'll creepy crawly under your skin
- Father
Can't stand the light, it hurts my eyes
And it comes as no surprise to find
A broken heart has no reprieve
In all the things we leave behind
I won't forsake you
Don't wanna break you
Don't wanna make you
- From One Jesus to Another
From one Jesus to another napalm can be a treat
Religion is only cold comfort 'cos Judas Iscariot was a cheat
Bullet holes in my mirror and a minefield across my floor
I don't want to be a soldier, don't want to fight someone else's war
I don't need no Hare Krishna
I don't need no primal scream
I don't need no mantra chant
I don't need no self esteem

- Grotesque
The only meat that will touch these lips of mine is human
Hope you consider that animals feel pain the same as we
Barbaric slaughter so you can put meat on the table to feed yourself
I hope you choke yourself to death on the very first bite
We are accountable, we are the choices that we make
And there's no reason for cruelty towards those that can't
Defend themselves, well, it's obscene that someone gets fat
- Heaven Sends You
I'll kiss the sleep from your eyes
I'll kiss you when the sun goes down
I'll kiss your until sunrise
I'll kiss the skin from your lips
And I'll kiss you on your fingertips
And I'll kiss you on the back of your neck
And I'll kiss you behind your ears
- Into The Blue
Mumbo jumbo, listen to the whispers of madness
We have climbed mountains of dust
We have seen gold gather rust
Hocus pocus the stampede of my heart
We have sailed on the stars through the air
We have flown on the wings of a prayer
Into the blue, only with you
Into the blue, only with you, into the blue
- Lay Your Hands On Me
A bunt out truck on a desert highway
Frank on the radio doing it My Way
And the sun beats down its a hundred and ten
And the girl in the back vows Never Again
Theres too many bends in the road too many curves
And the way I pout gets on your nerves
Those who hear not the music think the dancer mad
And all Ive got to say to you its the best time I ever had
- Lose Myself in You
When you touch me, you save my life
I don't need redemption, I don't want Christ
All I've ever needed, all I've ever wanted is you
So hey baby rae you can elevate me
You can raise me up, you can make me see
The wonder and the innocence in everything
Little thing you do
I wanna lose myself, lose myself in you.
- Love Me To Death
Let me come inside your ivory tower
Let me come inside your hallowed walls
God, it's heaven in here
Fix me with your hand of praise
Fix me with your touch of precious thrills
Your fingers dance across my skin
Reaching out for the pride of man
Hand in hand, flesh in flesh
- Mr. Pleasant
Oh, Mr Pleasant, how is Mrs Pleasant?
I hope the world is treating you right and your head's in the air
And you're feeling so proud 'cos you're such a success
Cos the whole wide world is on your side, hey hey
How are you today? People say Mr Pleasant's good, Mr Pleasant's kind
Mr Pleasant's OK, Mr Pleasant don't mind
As long as Mr Pleasant's alright, hey hey
- Never Again
It's never been like this
I've never felt like this before
And it was just around sunrise when you crept out the door
Left me ragged and worn but left me,
Left me wanting more, more, more
Let's do this all again
Let's do it all again
- Running With Scissors
The only way that I'll make the papers
These days is if I load a gun
And fire a bullet into my brain
But then again the hackneyed hacks
Will only write
I'm only jumping
Someone else's train
- Severina
She's got her head in the clouds
She's got the stars in her eyes
She's dancing with a dream in her heart
She's got the wind in her hair
Moonchild shining bright
And she's dancing, with a dream in her heart
Severina, Severina
- Spider And The Fly
Saw me, save me, save me from the spider, begs the fly
I'm caught in her web and she's bleeding me dry
She wears her seduction like the bride wears her veil
She promised me Heaven but all she gives me is Hell
Oh nu, no, no she's pulling me under
She's dragging me down, tearing me asunder
I'm sweating hot steel bullets, my mouth is bone dry
- Stay With Me
Книги и покрытия и любители неполного рабочего дня
Вращение в комнатах в городах ржавчины
Я застрял вычеркнувший на этой линии
Есть дым и огонь и сталь и провод
И стакан и шпиль и пыль
Один на пол на рассвете с губами, привязанными и оттянутыми
Бессонные проведенные ночи, с посланными небесами ангелов
- Sticks And Stones
I know I am a legend 'cos I've seen my name
Slandered on a dirty subway wall
Sticks and stones may break my bones but names don't hurt
Names can't hurt me at all
You can crucify me
I will rise again
You can crucify me
- Swim With The Dolphins
I wanna fly with Peter Pan
I wanna go with Alice to Wonderland
I wanna pitch ball to Shoeless Joe
I wanna roam the plains with the buffalo
Ohoh, ohoh, and before I die
Ohoh, ohoh, and before I die all I wanna do
Is swim with the dolphins
- The Light That Pours From You
I still remember the very first kiss
And the blood on the sheets
And like a star
That shoots through the night
We crash and burn in the heat
There's never any shadow if you don't have light
The darkest hour comes before dawn
And heaven knows the colour you bring to everything
- Tower Of Strength
You raise me up
When I'm on the floor
You see me through
When I'm lonely and scared
And I'm feeling true to the written word
And you're true to me
And still I need more
It would tear me apart
- Trail Of Scarlet
It was the word from Milo, A word to the wise
That set me straight about your cheating and your lies
Set down between us like the bottle that we shared
He had to tell me because no else dared
I'm so disappointed
I'm so very, very let down
You can have the bed and the stains on the sheets
- Until There's Another Sunrise
Buried deep, buried deep inside
The hurting and the pain I've got to hide
It's cold and it's dark and it's raining outside
Never another sunset until there's another
Another sunrising up
Like a mountain from the sea
Against the pain
The walls I build, the bridges I burn
