Wake up young man, it's time
To wake up
Your love affair has got to go
For 10 long years the leaves
To rake up
Slow suicide's no way to go
Blue, clouded grey,
You're not a crack up
Dizzy and weakened by the haze
Moving onward
So an infection not a phase
The cracks and lines from
Where you gave up
They make an easy man to read
For all the times you let them
Bleed you
For little peace from god you plead
And beg
For little peace from God you plead

Do the laughs die when
One such as I run
And allow myself
Time for own true needs
When convincing me
That you're on my team
May not lie to me
But not mentioning

X-ray mind reads plenty
Worth no more than pennies

So sit back and have
An hysterical
Laugh at tiny holes
Buy and trade men's souls

Hire a spy and bug me
Pimp your friends for money

You, they, you or what
Have been fair I thought
May you never free
You from you or me
See the more I think
I'm afraid to blink
I don't move an inch
Slowly draining me

Rich and growing sicker
Sell the dead ones quicker

My pain is self chosen
At least, so The Prophet says
I could either burn
Of cut off my pride, and buy some time
A head full of lies is the weight, tied to my waist

The River of Deceit pulls down
The only direction of flow is down
Down, oh down
Down, oh down
Down, oh down
Down, oh down

My pain is self chosen
At least I believe it to be
I could either drown
Or pull off my skin and swim to shore
Now I can grow a beautiful shell for all to see

(chorus)

For clear space and soundness of mind
I've let you play me for some time
One can only receive and retain
But the lies you recite for your gain
So you rely on my faith in your kind
Or rather continue to pretend that I'm blind
You say I made your life a living hell
And yet still let me pay you when I fell

How is it that you're feeling so uneasy?
How is it that I feel fine?
Life reveals what is dealt through seasons
Circle comes around each time
I've been blessed with eyes to see this
Behind the unwhole truth you hide
Bite to remind the bitten, bigger
Mouth repaying tenfold wide

I'm above
Over you I'm standing above
Claiming unconditional love
Above

Try to keep bad blood in the past
Never though a chance, a chance it would last
I have strength enough, enough to forgive
I desire peace where I live

(repeat heavy chorus)
(repeat soft chorus out...)

Artificial red, smoke, poison consumed
In the House of Ill Repute
Is this the way I spend my days
In recovery of a fatal disease?
On a cloud of pink has turned to grey
And I'm alone again
Someone to hold against my own
Alone, untouched is what I crave
Artificial red, smoke, poison consumed
In the House of Ill Repute
Is this the place I search for love
When my need is within me, a gift from above

Lifeless dead, that unclean bed
Till or when her hunger's fed
How he'd wished that they would wed
"I promise on our love" she said
Promises were never kept
Alone on dirty floor he slept

Yeah, Lifeless Dead

And although he'd not accept
She was gone and so he wept
Then a demon came to him
"You must know that I'm gonna win"

Yeah, Lifeless Dead

He said, she said She led him dead
He said we bled
She said not fed

Lifeless Dead, Lifeless Dead
Lifeless Dead, Lifeless Dead...

I don't know anything
I don't know anything
I don't know anything
I don't know who I am

I don't know anything
I don't know anything
I don't know anything
I don't know who to be

Why we have to be in so much pain everyday
Why the fighting and the coming down, am I sane?
I don't know
When the teacher put the ruler down on my hand
I laugh!
Cross my heart and hide reliever in trails of blood
I love?!?

(repeat all)

So much blood I'm starting to drown
Runs from cold to colder
Time to time the sky's coming down
To help me lose my way
Tears and lies for answers
You and open veins, God know I'm gone
Girl I just want you to
Come on down
Lord know it's a storm and I'm heading to fall
These sins are mine and I've done wrong, oh babe
Come on down

(Chorus)
Long Gone Day
Mmmm, Who ever said
We wash away with the rain

See you all from time to time
Isn't it so strange
How far away we all are now
Am I the only one who remebers that summer
Oh, I remember
Everyday each time the place was saved
The music that we made
The wind has carried al of that away

Chorus

So many tears I'm starting to drown
The rain in heaven's all come down
Silver spoons affix the crowd
The luckless ones are broken
Tears and lies for answers
You an open flame
God knows I'm gone
Girl I just want you to
Come on down
Lord it's a storm and I'm headin' to fall
These sins are mine and I've done weong
I want you to, Oh, I just want you to
Come on down

I fear again, like then, I've lost my way
And shout to God to bring my sunny day

We're all alone... We're all alone...
