Slow Kill

Don't cry on the bridge of starving
So cold, first light
Up here on the bridge of night
Forsake me but listen
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
For what
Up here on the bridge of night
To fall it would be so nice
Chase this misery out of this town
Bury my face into the ground
Now jump
Now jump
Jump
Into a smile mesmerised
She wants you
She wants you
Up here I can see for miles
Such a fire as burns inside
I'm up here because I wanted to die
I'm up here like a dying messiah
I'm up here because I wanted to die
I'm up here
I lie here
The pain
Don't cry
Now jump
Now jump
Jump

Laura

Tempted white eyes
Blinded by the night
Hollow like the towers
On the inside
Laura's a machine
She's burning insane
Laura's a machine

For a menace in disguise
Behold this night
The four walls are furnished
Now she's alive
No one ever helped poor Laura
She's rabin in ecstacy

She's on the line to cut it all
She's on the line to drop or fall She's
on the line,
Line to fall

People laughing an awful sight
Please leave Laura
'Tis her night
Laura's a machine
She's burning insane
Laura's a machine
From the light of the catherine wheel She
spins from above
Haunted by these times
My European love

No one ever helped poor Laura
She's rabid in ecstacy

She's on the line to cut it all
She's on the line to drop and fall She's
on the line to cut or fall
She's on the line
Line to fall

Preacher Man

Well he talks in confusion
and he faults your point of view
You talk about his apparition
and he talks
hear him laughing at you
Contamination and radiation
Let it crawl while the city sleeps
Your turn to lay for bait for a while
Now you're melting through your burning fields
and all my people say oh
Stop!

When he talks
connected scars reopen
A thousand fingers
reach out for you
We don't feel no contamination
We don't feel no contamination
We don't feel no contamination
We don't feel no contamination
Oh keep talking
You're a hunter I'm a wolf
Yeah keep talking
I'm the preacher you're a fool
Contamination and radiation
Let it crawl while the city sleeps
Your turn to lay for bait for a while
Now you're melting through your burning fields
That's when my people say oh
We don't feel no contamination
Radiation, contamination
Radiation, contamination
Radiation, contamination
Radiation

Volcane (Mr. Jealousy Has Returned)

Mr. Jealousy has returned
Yearning, yearning
Mr. Jealousy has returned to reality
All secured by humanity
You're living in danger
Mr. Jealousy has returned your hurting me
Can't you see?
Our love is in danger
Living inside her this love volcane
Now burn inside her this love volcane
Living inside her this love volcane
Now burn inside her this love volcane
Mr. Jealousy has returned
Mr. Jealousy has returned
Living inside her
Now burn inside her
Volcane...
Walk on...
Volcane, Volcane, Volcane
Yearning...

Vet For The Insane

Disheartening dreams
For tonight
Relax
Just try to sleep
Relax, relax...
You've got to hold to your past
So bad, so bad...
I'm gonna pull you all to pieces
So sad, so sad...
Flowers in your kitchen
They weep for you
I'm gonna shred them all to pieces
Like I did to you
Relax, relax...
Relax, relax...
I want to go home
In this asylum I cry for you
I want to go home
Look what you've put me through
Put me through
The wolves gather round
To a droning sound
Like the hunter that's beat
What am I here for?
Relax, relax...
Relax, relax...
I want to go home
What am I here for?
I want to go home
Help me
I want to go home

Secrets

He rides on the crest of a wave
his anger running out
he acts as if the same way
as I ride across town to town
I forgive you follow me
I forgive you follow me
I forgive you follow me
I'll forgive you
I'll forgive you
I've seen the hardest men fall
I've seen them crawl
secrets I know where noone can find them
behind the darkened door
I can feel what she wants me to be
I can see the movements she'll make
'cause
I can see
I can see
I can see
I can see
I can see
I can see
I've seen harder men fall
I've seen them crawl
secrets I know where noone can find them
behind the darkened door
darkened door
darkened door
darkened door
I forgive you follow me
I forgive you follow me
I forgive you follow me
I'll forgive...
I've seen harder men fall
I've seen them crawl
secrets I know where noone can find them
behind the darkened door
the darkened door
the darkened door
the darkened door

Dust

Blood, want to wash away
Got to heat this love
As she breaks
Dust
We fade the scene
Gotta reason in peace Now explain
Feelings go on and on
The killing is all in my name
The rhythm of life is all too strong
To get back
Come down
Riding on a train
In this swirling pool
of blood and brains
Well that's fate
My mind is made

Reanimator

Pain, we are transforming
With your daughters underground
Pain, we look like sisters
Caught up in a landslide
Falling down

Too far you can't feel it
Too far you can't reach it
Too far

Reanimator
Reanimator now

Reanimator
Reanimator now

Pain, entranced by fire
Your world stinks
Your world stinks of you

Pain
The world's unwired
Your mind burns
Your mind burns on through
Too far you can't feel it
Too far you can't reach it
Too far
Too far
Reanimator
Reanimator now
Reanimator
Reanimator now

Power

Power...
power feeds you long,
loving hours
I can give everlasting power
Flower...
the world opens
you need simple flower
A feeling, a feeling all so sour

Drain me, now drain me
from power
Drain me, now drain me
from power.

Oh, the wide open stench of all - so sour.
I can't give, but I recieve for hours
oh...

Drain me, now drain me
from power
Drain me, now drain me
from power.

Drain it - static from the attic,
attic walls...
Oh...

Drain me, now drain me
from power
Drain me, now drain me
from power.

Drain it - static from the attic,
attic walls...

A power, so somatic
See the heart is burning -
I call it static
(attic walls...)
I need static
so charismatic
You're so tragic -
my love's so manic
(attic walls...)
I have the power
use it, frantic
your body's turned -
I'm systematic
(attic walls...)
See my touch,
Those who cower
drain me of
my breathing hours
(attic walls...)

The Tower

She lifts the flowers from the window box
Summers flowers now winter flocks
She lifts her veil to the morning rain
Hides her eyes from the sun again

A thousand years shimmer on her face
Cut inside she redreams the tast
She knocks her flowers from the window side
They fall to the ground they fall to the ground

Hide away from the raging sun
You hide your love from the fire beyond

See the woman in an ancient form
She's tangled in the bushes tall
Cowering down with head in hands
She cries out loud she cries out loud
Seems so cold it seems so cold tonight
Seems so cold seems so cold tonight

Hide away from the raging sun
You hide your love from the fire beyond
