No candycoloured paradise
No stary blackholed eyes No more dreams of neverend Through embers only dark descends No more comatose sleepwalking No feeble sideshow toungetalking Not even crucified you'd get that far Nor escape the shining mourningstar No lies shall opiate your senses No spying glasses with shaded lenses Nor suns that burn a brighter tint Just lucid weaves in pristine mint No candycoloured paradise No stary blackholed eyes No more dreams of neverend Through embers only dark descends No more angels in the snow No more hunting high and low No more water in our veins To seek out gold from grains No fight to win or loose No single path to choose No second coming at all Just a simple rise and fall No candycoloured paradise No stary blackholed eyes No more dreams of neverend Through embers only dark descends 02. Brighter Than The Sun
We could wander in the garden of eden baby
We could anything tonight, maybe We could even touch the sky If we just get up on our feet and try We could wander in the garden of eden baby Will you settle for the bull's run For the second best of fun For the fire of a handgun Burns brighter than the sun Any colour you like as long as it's black You have anything if you just give it back You could be a celebrity like me It won't change anything as you will see Any colour you like as long as it's black Will you settle for the bull's run For the second best of fun For the fire of a handgun Burns brighter than the sun 03. Dust Is Our Fare
There is a time when some of us are healed
There is a time you're clean and undersealed There is a time it almost looks like fun There is a time for the bullet of a gun No one here drinks water None of us is sane If you pretend you're my daughter We do it again and again No one here is praying 'Cause no one here is god And every word we are saying Might as well be put in blood There is a time when worms revel in me There is a time for a pigfaced reality There is a time and it's usually the afternoon There is a time and I hope it will be damn soon No one here drinks water None of us is sane If you pretend you're my daughter We do it again and again No one here is praying 'Cause no one here is god And every word we are saying Might as well be put in blood 04. To Have And Have Not
She shivered, afraid that I would shoot
She'd panic, afraid that I would not She drank it all right before my eyes Said, be my Lucifer, be my Lord of Flies I can take all your blasphemy I can take all your sins I can end any moment And let new one begin She said, do it and do it now Yeah, let all black birds fly again For all fires that burned before As hell's fire, shall burn bright once more I can take all your blasphemy I can take all your sins I can end any moment And let new one begin 05. For Her Pleasure
Erase the pictures from my mind
Eliminate the presence of your kind Unloose the strings of instinct laws Just to fall into some other jaws In pounding afternoon I rise For the pleasure of dying twice A wingcut anges in decline Breathe my air and I'll be fine Put your teeth in me Carve your name in me I don't care if there is something That I'm blind to see Invite yourself and feel free To pick up splinter of debris It's in your sys.ex Subdues all that's delusive Initially this lie I'd recoil But again I crawl this dirty soil Of all possessions I did treasure This one's strictly for her pleasure Put your teeth in me Carve your name in me I don't care if there is something That I'm blind to see 06.

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste I've been around for a long, long year Stole many a man's soul and faith And I was 'round when Jesus Christ Had his moment of doubt and pain Made damn sure that Pilate Washed his hands and sealed his fate Pleased to meet you Hope you guess my name 'Cause what's puzzling you Is the nature of my game I stuck around St. Petersburg When I saw it was a time for a change I Killed the czar and his ministers Anastasia screamed in vain I rode a tank Held a general's rank When the blitzkrieg raged And the bodies stank Pleased to meet you Hope you guess my name Ah, what's puzzling you Is the nature of my game I watched with glee While your kings and queens Fought for ten decades For the gods they made I shouted out, "Who killed the Kennedys?" When after all It was you and me Let me please introduce myself I'm a man of wealth and taste And I laid traps for troubadours Who get killed before they reached Bombay Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name 'Cause what's puzzling you Is the nature of my game Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name 'Cause what's confusing you Is just the nature of my game Pleased to meet you, pleased to meet you Guess my name, guess my name Pleased to meet you, pleased to meet you Guess my name, guess my name 08. Best Friend Money Can Buy
We drank as much as we could
And she drank more than she should We stumbled out of this cheap whiskey bar And that is the story so far Guided by the dim streetlights We walked through the black harbour night No people, no passing car Well, that is the story so far She thinks she smells the northland snow Northland snow And she's as glad as I to go I to go Hey very bolts are sick for shore Sick for shore And I, I want it ten times more Ten times more She silenced her mouth when I asked for her name And she asked me to please do the same She said it's all written in the stars And that is the story so far But she whispered her name when I kissed her goodbye Her voice stained by whiskey and tar She went back to where she belonged, and I I went back to the bar She thinks she smells the northland snow Northland snow And she's as glad as I to go I to go Hey very bolts are sick for shore Sick for shore And I, I want it ten times more Ten times more 09. As Long As You Are Mine
You dance like liquid fire
Like crystal methedrine You make the stars come closer The most beautiful girl I've seen You're everything I want Only you can set me free You're an angel in the snow You're a shot in the arm for me I will let your L.E.D.'s shine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine As long as you are mine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine As long as you are mine You move and whisper softly You make me safe and sound You're a tranquilizer You make the world go round You are here beside me You make me feel fine I'll go through any day As long as you are mine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine As long as you are mine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine As long as you are mine As long as you are mine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine As long as you are mine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine As long as you are mine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine As long as you are mine I will let your L.E.D.'s shine As long as you are mine 10. Lucy
Lucy was my first choice
Lucy was the one She was my silent voice When all was said and done Yeah, Lucy was a demon She did it all my way She'd give me all her fun As long as I would pay!! Lucy gave me veil Like shaken crystal clear When lights were turning pale Then I would still be there Lucy shone is neon Lucy swore she's mine And in another aeon I would be the first in line |
