Let's fall apart together now
Zipping cupid In a body bag well-worn Next to the mausoleum He was born in Picking up the pieces Of this gory glory of it all From eve to morn For Eve to mourn Have no fear There are wounds That are not meant to heal And they sing in venere veritas Come inside Let the fire burn you alive And sing, baby sing There are wounds That are not meant to heal at all In venere veritas Let's fall apart together now There is a method to our sadness As we drag the mirror ball and chain Throught the twilight Again dressed up in shame Have no fear There are wounds That are not meant to heal And they sing in venere veritas Come inside Let the fire burn you alive And sing, baby sing There are wounds That are not meant to heal at all In venere veritas We are begging for a reflection From an unshuttered heart To blind and chase us over the edge Have no fear There are wounds That are not meant to heal And they sing in venere veritas Come inside Let the fire burn you alive And sing, baby sing There are wounds That are not meant to heal at all In venere veritas These are the wounds That are not meant to heal at all Let's fall apart together now Let's fall apart together now 02. Scared To Death
In the biblical sense and sensibility
Let me know you I'll kiss that smile off your face just say when Just say when I'm not afraid to say "I love you" Any more than I used to be babe I am scared to death I am scared to death To fall in love All these pick-up lines from hell Icebreakers infernal From a heart so black and blue Only for you Just say when again I'm not afraid to say "I love you" Any more than I used to be babe I am scared to death I am scared to death To fall in love with you With you I'm not afraid to say "I love you" Any more than I used to be babe I am scared to death I am scared to death To fall in love I'm not afraid to admit "I adore you" Any more than I was before, baby I am scared to death I am scared to death to fall in love with you With you With you I am scared to death I am scared to death I am scared to death And you're sweet like poison 03. Heartkiller
Farewell heartless world
I'll send you a postcard burnt in the flames You've tried so hard to extinguish With the fear of failing I'll write down everything I have learned An edit it down to a single word "love" For you I'm waiting, anticipating Sparks will fly beneath the lunar light Lazarus at Frankenstein's Babe, I'll be a flatliner for a heartkiller A little we die above the lesser light For you I'm open wide Babe, I'll be a flatliner for a heartkiller Top hats off to the return Of the beat to lick a wound Too cursed for some And blessed for a few It doesn't have to make any sense at all Come hither and we'll fall for love For love I'm crawling out of patience, baby Sparks will fly beneath the lunar light Lazarus at Frankenstein's Babe, I'll be a flatliner for a heartkiller A little we die above the lesser light For you I'm open wide Babe, I'll be a flatliner for a heartkiller Paint all your sorrow for me to sing heartkiller Draw your pain and hear me hum it out Sparks will fly beneath the lunar light Lazarus at Frankenstein's Babe, I'll be a flatliner for a heartkiller A little we die above the lesser light For you I'm open wide Babe, I'll be a flatliner for a heartkiller Heartkiller, heartkiller, heartkiller Babe, I'll be a flatliner for a heartkiller Babe, I'll be a flatliner for a heartkiller 04. Dying Song
I've seen you breathe life
Into the weakest of hearts And heard you scream out Loud the sweetest poem Echoing across the ocean Reminding me why I still try To hold onto whatever Is left of you and I Shedding skin to a dying song We hum along to the evening sun 'Til we are no more Little deaths to a dying song Sound a lot like life I've seen these dreams Being crushed by a single thought And felt the envy Of sadness engulf all warmth Barely alive under ice By exchanging sighs With tomorrow quivering In the loneliest light Shedding skin to a dying song We hum along to the evening sun 'Til we are no more Little deaths to a dying song Sound a lot like life and love Life and love with you Crawl back into bed tomorrow Is trembling at the sight of you and I Shedding skin to a dying song We hum along to the evening sun 'Til we are no more Little deaths to a dying song Sound a lot like life and love Life and love Life and love (dying song) Life and love (a dying song) With you (a dying song) With you (a dying song) With you (a dying song) With you (a dying song) 05. Disarm Me (With Your Loneliness)
The promise of heaven
Pushed us right back to hell Turn three sevens Into three sixes again And you laughed at my face When I told you how much it hurts And said... Disarm me with your loneliness Just like always before Deceive me out of my emptiness Telling me how you love You keep on tempting me To go on whatever the cost To witness the prettiest flower In the wicked to dust So I'll break all the rules In this endless game once called love For you... Disarm me with your loneliness Just like always before Deceive me out of my emptiness Telling me how you love Me with all your heart no more Disarm me with your loneliness Just like always before Disarm me with your loneliness Just like always before Deceive me out of my emptiness Telling me how you love Me with all your heart no more 06. Love, The Hardest Way
Love's the devil counting
Teardrops in the rain To the sound of a chalkboard symphony Played with nails For what it's worth I don't want to see you hurt anymore Than you have to Dine on glass Wine on blood Baby, love the hard way Baudelaire in braille Baby, love the harder way Once you lose yourself entomb I promise you love the hardest way Pretty like a flower On a tomb you are Kissed blue by the last arrows Of the sun Olly olly oxen free Hide and go weep No more Unless you want to Dine on glass Wine on blood Baby, love the hard way Baudelaire in braille Baby, love the harder way Once you lose yourself entomb I promise you love the hardest way Dine on glass Wine on blood Baby, love the hard way Baudelaire in braille Baby, love the harder way Once you lose yourself entomb I promise you love the hardest way (Love the hard way) Love the hardest way (Love the harder way) Once you lose yourself entomb I promise you love the hardest way Love the hardest way Love the hardest way Love the hardest way 07. Katherine Wheel
Lo and behold baby
These are the things you make me do Katherine wheel I'm burning for you I'm burning for you Come on and break me a limb at a time Wrap me around your spokes so tight There's no letting go Spin me around to blur the line Between you and I What are you waiting for Lo and behold baby These are the things you make me do Katherine wheel I'm burning for you Please don't stop Until my heart no longer screams Katherine wheel Katherine wheel Holding hands won't be enough In a world giving head to a gun Love in theory and practice chapter one Lo and behold baby These are the things you make me do Katherine wheel I'm burning for you Please don't stop Until my heart no longer screams Katherine wheel Katherine wheel I twist and turn In your arms swirl The dizzier I get the clearer I see With you I'm at peace with the war within Lo and behold baby These are the things you make me do Katherine wheel I'm burning for you Please don't stop Until my heart no longer screams Katherine wheel Katherine wheel Lo and behold baby These are the things you make me do Katherine wheel I'm burning for you Katherine wheel I'm burning for you Katherine wheel Katherine wheel I'm burning for you 08. In The Arms Of Rain
Once again we found ourselves to be lost
Holding hand while straying From the path in a forest dark Aren't you happy to see me crawl Serpentine towards the sun to you Lift the lid of your heart's casket In the arms of rain We'll drift along this river of sadness 'Til we feel no pain Baby, stop hail marys For the secret you've kept from me Hail marys for tomorrow's dream In the arms of rain we are free Again, I fought myself and lost Come bite the apple And I'll coil around your heart I'm so happy to see you weep along In these arms you belong Lift the lid of your heart's casket In the arms of rain We'll drift along this river of sadness 'Til we feel no pain Baby, stop hail marys For the secret you've kept from me Hail marys for tomorrow's dream In the arms of rain we are free Ave Maria we've tried Ave Maria we've cried Ave Maria we've died Lift the lid of your heart's casket In the arms of rain We'll drift along this river of sadness 'Til we feel no pain Baby, stop hail marys For the secret you've kept from me Hail marys for tomorrow's dream In the arms of rain we are free Lift the lid of your heart's casket In the arms of rain We'll drift along this river of sadness 'Til we feel no pain Baby, stop hail marys For the secret you've kept from me Hail marys for tomorrow's dream In the arms of rain we are free It's the end of the road Hold me It's the end of the road and we're free 09. Ode To Solitude
Easy on the eyes, uneasy on the heart
Sew my wrists shut Sew my wrists shut with hope Straight into the light shining bright I dare you to dream this And I dare you to dream this gone What I want to know is which Makes you smile less Here's to the pain The light of the oncoming train Come on, ode to solitude in chains Here's to the pain As always heaven in flames now bleeding Ode to solitude in chains Map the scars of a heart bruised and torn Loosen the noose love Loosen the noose with love What I want to know is why You keep hanging Here's to the pain The light of the oncoming train Come on, ode to solitude in chains Here's to the pain As always heaven in flames now bleeding Ode to solitude in chains If I should fail to stay Remember not to forget This feeling you have I've failed, please pretend It never happened baby Here's to the pain The light of the oncoming train Come on, ode to solitude in chains Here's to the pain As always heaven in flames now bleeding Ode to solitude in chains Here's to the pain The light of the oncoming train Come on, ode to solitude in chains Here's to the pain As always heaven in flames now bleeding Ode to solitude in chains Ode to solitude Ode to solitude Ode to solitude Ode to solitude 10. Shatter Me With Hope
The girl who cried at love
Won't you come and play with me? You can be Cassandra Underneath the sword of Damocles We'll tear this baby apart Wise like Solomon Run, come shatter me now Shatter me with hope Crawl, come breathe me in Bleed out all sorrows Scream me a dream Untouched by shadows Baby, shatter me now, shatter me now Shatter me with hope She'll be the witness To the repose of Evelyn Push the needle in To the of canticles of ecstasy Turn to page 43 And you'll know how I feel Run, come shatter me now Shatter me with hope Crawl, come breathe me in Bleed out all sorrows Scream me a dream Untouched by shadows Baby, shatter me now, shatter me now Shatter me with hope Swear on your heart's grave, I'm wrong And love like your life's depending on it Because it is We'll tear this baby apart Wise like Solomon Turn to page 43 And you'll know how I feel Run, come shatter me now Shatter me with hope Crawl, come breathe me in Bleed out all sorrows Scream me a dream Untouched by shadows Baby, shatter me now, shatter me now Shatter me with hope Shatter me now Shatter me now Shatter me now Shatter me now Shatter me now Shatter me now Scream me a dream.....! Shatter me now Shatter me now Shatter me now Scream me a dream.....! Shatter me now Shatter me now Shatter me now 11. Acoustic Funeral (For Love In Limbo)
You missed the winter
And it followed you back home Where sun kissed the crimson Footsteps in the melting snow We are doing our best To disown the golden mean By disacts of cruelty In the name of beauty to be free The acoustic funeral for love in limbo We're dancing with tags on our toes I saved my last breath for your window To write you this song for the acoustic funeral On the verge of a vow To kill all reason locking that door To a nightmare within A nightmare we are bound to adore Let the pleasure in the shape Of a heart lie to me And finally confirm all fears To be so real, be so real The acoustic funeral for love in limbo We're dancing with tags on our toes I saved my last breath for your window To write you this song for the acoustic funeral Underneath the ice so thin I am turning blue (I'm turning blue) The one last thing I know to be real Is the shadow of you Killing love with a kiss The acoustic funeral for love in limbo We're dancing with tags on our toes I saved my last breath for your window To write you this song The acoustic funeral for love in limbo (The acoustic funeral for love in limbo) We're dancing with tags on our toes (We're dancing with tags on our toes) I saved my last breath for your window To write you this song for the acoustic funeral Lest we have to fall For the acoustic funeral Killing love with a kiss 12. Like St. Valentine
In the name of love lost
I'm frozen to her and I want you to come Build me a bridge soaked in gasoline And pass the torch Hey baby, let me be your valentine Saint Valentive Suck the sorrow out of you and try To keep a lie alive Like Saint Valentine Like the couple from Pompeii Our drama is put on display Along with a dove stuffed In a coffin of glass entitled Love, lust and the holy ghost Those were the days Hey baby, let me be your valentine Saint Valentive Suck the sorrow out of you and try To keep a lie alive Hey baby, let me be your valentine Saint Valentive Suck the sorrow out of you and try To keep a lie alive Like Saint Valentine Love is the only war worth dying for Lift me up to knock me down I'm all yours for now Hey baby, let me be your valentine Saint Valentive Suck the sorrow out of you and try To keep a lie alive Hey baby, let me be your valentine Saint Valentive Suck the sorrow out of you and try To keep a lie alive Like Saint Valentine Hey baby, let me be your valentine Saint Valentive Suck the sorrow out of you and try To keep a lie alive Hey baby, let me be your valentine Saint Valentive Suck the sorrow out of you and try To keep a lie alive Like Saint Valentine 13. The Foreboding Sense Of Impending Happiness
By your heart strings
I am hanging from a dream Gently swinging In the warm autumn breeze Come look at the scars Smother a heart Opening up Look at the scars Smother a heart Opening up No more Tiptoeing along a strand Of your hair suspended between These thoughts and actions Miles above reality Come look at the scars Smother a heart Opening up Look at the scars Smother a heart Opening up Come look at the scars Smother a heart Opening up Look at the scars Smother a heart Opening up Come look at the scars Smother a heart Opening up Look at the scars Smother a heart Opening up Opening up, opening up Opening up, opening up Look at the scars Uou open me up, open me up Smother a heart Opening up, opening up Look at the scars You open me up, opening up Open me up |
