It's Alright, It's OK
Broken doll baby, And she says that
life's a waste. It doesn't have to feel that way. Dad threw away her mom;
Her mom gave up his name. Crucified by their words; Nailed by shame. She
stares into the sun, Self inflicted pain. She sees that they're blind.
Why does she take all the blame? The rhyme has changed. Compulsion rules.
Mary's little lambs are now raised by wolves. A voyeur with wings flashes
a cure. She knows forbidden things. They have a lovely lure. It's alright
it's OK, Welcome to this life. Killin' time; Just watching the grass grow.
It's alright it's OK. Welcome to this life. Don't worry sweet baby,
Cuz it's over before you know. Persecuted she's not normal. I envy her
strange ways. Seven deadly sins.Seize the hour; seize the day. Her ideas
need expression; Her wounds never bleed; Her beauty lives in my eyes; Too
bad she can't see. She doesn't try. I watch her spirit die. But giving
up the ghost would feel so good. A voyeur with wings flashes a cure. She
knows forbidden things. They have a lovely lure. Crumbling; Camelot; idle
teardrops; Cloudy diamonds; freebase funhouse. Expecting to fly but she's
just standing still. Every time she gets it up, She just can't close the
deal. So she gives herself another way out, Walks her dog for the 50th
time and files her nails till they bleed. And she cries now. She doesn't
have to try.
Happy Birthday
And happy birthday to you...
You're nice and warm. The water's
deep. I'm kickin' while you sleep. Muffled words I don't understand but
it sounds like talk is cheap. You're pushing hard. It's cramped in here.
Is this what warps my head? The lighting's red. The pressure's high. Is
it birth or is it death? Made in your image, are you prepared? You are
what you conceive. You're my first love. I know you inside out. And what
you already ate I'll eat. Naked and lonely. Will somebody hold me?
The deed is done. Let's start day one. You're stuck with me.
Ahhh happy birthday! Ahhh happy birthday! This bloody maze is puzzling
me. I can't find my way out. Should I turn back? Is it too late? Do second
thoughts count? If I can't speak, who'll speak for me?Can't even
stand on my own two feet. I'm not afraid to ask, will you hold my hand?
Leaving here's kind of bittersweet. Finally I'm safe. Home sweet home.
Flesh of my flesh and bone of my bone. So many people. So much love. Hip
hip hip hooray! I'll never be alone. Noah's ark didn't show up here.
Holy water, I guess I'm blessed. What's the buzz? Why the sweat? What's
the hold up? Why the mess? Soon I'm yours and you're all mine. I hope I'm
all you planned. Deliver me; believe in me. Salvation's in your hands.
Naked and lonely. Will somebody hold me? The deed is done.
Let's start day one. You're stuck with me. Ahhh
happy birthday! Ahhh happy birthday!
Mother Tongue
Mother tongue, I speak that language.
There are no words but there is meaning. My secret love song; My eyes swell;
I'm free. Mother tongue, Never betrayed me. Inhale your life, One more
breath I'm dancing. Lacking wings still I can fly from you
I could lose everything surrendering to you. Like praying to
a god above who doesn't even want to know you... Mother tongue, Today
I curse you. Where's my voice? Have I lost my virtue? How much more can
I sacrifice for you? Down on my knees for you. Your hands crawling through
my hair. I forgot to be cautious here.
Finally I cry I cry...
You Make Me Remember
Whispering; you stare. Wanting; you
don't care. Kiss me. Make me cry. How did I wind up here? Wishing
you were dead. Why are you in my bed? Ignore what's jeopardized. It's only
me denied. Ohh, I'm dizzy hazy. Ohh, can someone save me?
Ohh, hypnotize me. Anesthetize the pain. You speak my name. I hear nothing.
You share your dreams. I see nothing. Unconscious suicide. Aren't you gone
yet? You make me remember things I want to forget... Walk in the
park; fresh air. I shoot my drink. You're still here. Inside a child asks
why, Who used to bring me here? You speak my name. I hear nothing.
You share your dreams. I see nothing. Unconscious suicide. Aren't you gone
yet? You make me remember. You touch my face. I feel nothing. You
taste my lips. I give nothing. This starving soul must be fed. You make
me remember things I want to forget... Yes, I do need to feel love, And
I used yours like a glove, But the memories come flooding back. All I want
to do is paint it black. This starving soul must be fed. You make
me remember. You speak my name. I hear nothing. You share your dreams.
I see nothing. Unconscious suicide. Aren't you gone yet? You make me remember
things I want... You make me remember things I need... You make me remember
things I want to forget...
Who Are They To Say
Feels good to wonder what I'm doing
here. Feels right. Getting smashed with God all night. Relax. Exploit my
mind. To each his own king within his own tribe. Define for me free at
last. We are history. They don't want no human contrast. They should know.
Jekyll shouldn't have to Hyde. Who are you? who am I? Who said I can't
alter my mind? Who said the puzzle needs each piece? Who said say
your seven Hail Marys? And who are they to say? You keep invading me with
your self-righteous camouflage uniform. Can't you let me be who I want
to be? If I had gills I'd fly. You can't tell me what's right. If I lose
my mind I wonder what I'd gain tonight. A lunatic just livin' a real life.
Stimulate me; try to find me.
Who would call it sin every Tom Dick
Harry? Who said absence makes the heart grow fonder? Who said smiling means
I'm happy? Who said I can't scream for mutiny? And who are they to say?
Who are they to say?
Problem Child
Why won't you pay attention? Pray
every night. I'll make you happy. If I'm real bad will you punish me? The
contact hurts but at least you're touching me.Can't you see? Can't you
read? Please read me, please. Hard to believe I'm your flesh and blood.
Watch your mistakes swimming down my face. Jump up and down and I'll even
fall. To your feet you're stepping on me. You're hurting me. You don't
notice me. You're hurting me. I'm screaming. I'm breaking. I'm grieving.
Get angry. I'm rebelling. I'm trying. I'm losing. Be proud of me. I'm sickening.
I'm learning. Please notice me. I'm your baby. Am I all you hoped that
I would be? Must be no boundaries. Guess no one cares. What's mine
is mine and what's yours is mine to get. I'll make you listen until you're
blue. The contact hurts but at least I'm touching you. I'm raping.
I'm craving. I'm begging. Get angry. I'm weakening. I'm regretting. I'm
sorry. Be proud of me. I'm invisible. I'm multiplying. I'm pleading. I'm
killing. Am I all you hoped that I would be? La la la... I'm crippling.
I'm sobbing. I'm degrading. I know you want me. I'm deprecating. I'm demoralizing.
I'm sad. Humiliating. I'm empty. I'm destroying. I'm guilty. I'm ashamed.
I'm wrong. I know I'm wrong. Why won't you pay attention? Hung from
a rope, then you'll know me.
Come Sunday Morning
Charming you's a challenge. You've
got these strings attached like bondage. For you I'll bring the holy house
down. We'll get some peace and help our sorrows drown. Lay at the altar
with me. Let's live deviantly. Maybe through you I can find God.
Don't tell me that you love me. It seems so final that you love me. Even
the blind see. It looks better when there's mystery. Can't lay my hands
on you. It'd be selfish. It's true. Cuz healing you could heal me too.
Wrong is right come Sunday morning. We'll see the light come Sunday
morning. Forgive ourselves come Sunday morning. Sunday. Sunday. Invade
my space. Invade my mind. Your intervention is so divine. Daddy, I'm diggin'
on your dark side. No more fingerprints on you that aren't mine. Can you
de-program me? Help I need somebody. Everything I see, I do, I taste is
part of you. The sky is falling. Mayday! Mayday! My idle hands are
getting weak. My mind's ignoring what they're saying. No one's perfect
seven days a week.
Kiss Me Goodbye
Your arms hold me aimlessly. I can
feel you letting me go. Don't sing me a lullaby. Don't pretend to care.
Finish up and get out of here! Indulge yourself. Kiss me goodbye,
Judas. Mangled songs words are strained. Your picture's gone.
I'm lost in the frame. Kiss me goodbye. I believed now I'm betrayed.
The kiss is vital before you walk away. One, two, three, four. You
stab, I plead for more. Don't you see I'm still alive.Your sword is double-edged.
Your stalling makes it worse. I can't take this please push it deeper...
Give in to your filth. You've always made love to yourself. Deflower my
memories and I'll memorize your last breath. Ignore the weight I've lost.
Those are stars you see in my eyes. You're flattered. Were you always this
blind? Get your business done. Show me your lowest low. Toxic waste. Isn't
this fun? Prey on this. Well I'll be damned. Kiss me goodbye, Judas. The
dance is done, so let it rain.Take your faces; take your shame. Kiss me
goodbye. I believed now I'm betrayed. The kiss is vital before you walk
away. I believed now I'm betrayed. The kiss is vital before you walk away.
I believed...
Hell To Pay
If I didn't know your game, Would
you lay me down and lie about your name? If things didn't go your way,
Would you tell the lawyers you were just playing? If there were no hell
to pay I wonder would you still need a God? If the rich were weak would
you fight for their lives? Without a marriage would you give up your wife?
If you saw me coming would you take another route? In your house does difference
stay out? If there were no hell to pay I wonder would you still need a
God? If there were no hell to pay I wonder would you still need a God?
Do you dig for gold? Would you sell your soul? What should we know?
Who are you when you're alone? If my eyes were closed would
you launch your stones? What should we know? Who are you when
you are all alone? With the cameras off would you beat him till he's dead?
If you found the cure would you make us beg? If no one had to work would
you still get out of bed? If the bullet was for me would you take it in
the head? If there were no hell to pay I wonder would you still need a
God? If there were no hell to pay I wonder would you still need a God?
If there were no hell to pay I wonder would you still need a God? If there
were no hell to pay I wonder would you still need a God? If I believed
in you and you believed in me would you still need a God? If no one cared
would you sleep
all day? Would you still need a god? If my eyes were closed
would you launch your stones? Would you still need a God? With the cameras
off would you beat him dead? Would you still need a God?
Will You Still Love Me
Dying to scream so I hide and sing.
A disillusioned voyeur studying the sane. God keeps whispering in the devil's
ear. Hallelujah! Things are getting weird. I'm nakedly perverted. Possessive
and free. I wanna run away, But I never wanna leave. I got an ax to grind
and a mouth to match. You better hear me out. Don't let me crash. The blues
in my eyes take me swimming. I try to dance, The floor keeps moving. My
swollen lips. The words aren't forming. The curtain's coming down.
Will you still love me tomorrow when you find out who I am today?
Will you know my name tomorrow when you hear the things I have to
say? Will you still love me tomorrow? I'm black. I'm white. I'm the human
race. Call me Eve. How's the apple taste? In a perfect world I'd find my
place. Try to change me, What a fucked up waste. My body's cold.
The whispers chill me. Expose myself. Am I still pretty? Are you so flawless?
Or is it gutless that you can't accept me! Talking it into the ground.
Do you have the faith knowing what you've found? What others hide I'm laying
it down. Conformity is our tragedy. The blues in my eyes take me swimming.
I try to dance, The floor keeps moving. My swollen lips. The words aren't
forming. The curtain's coming down. You're higher. Will you? Will you?
Will you know my name?
Imagining You
What would morning taste like with
you? Would a shower feel the same with you? Did you ever think what loving
me could mean? When you're all alone, do you imagine me? Would I smell
the same after I hugged you? If I slept in your arms could you sleep too?
Did you ever think what loving me could mean? When you're all alone, do
you imagine me? Fingers memorizing my skin. I lose myself so your search
can begin. Contemplating what you might do.When I'm all alone, I'm imagining
you. If I touched you here would you get the butterflies? Could I see your
chills? Would you show me how you cry? Did you ever think what loving me
could mean? When you're all alone, do you imagine me?
I can't breathe. You took my breath
away. Breathing you'd be worth my last days. Did you ever think what loving
me could mean? When you're all alone, do you imagine me? La la la... Contemplating
what you might do. When I'm all alone, I'm imagining you.
