- Alibi
She hangs in the shadows of my dreams
And whispers, "You're colourless, almost invisible,
like a pale, sad shadow!"
And I'm chagrined to realize that I believed her.
I wish I could find a way to decieve her.
She reproaches and condemns me
For the things that have eluded me
And the things I've let delude me
- Boogey Man
You touched me with poisoned finger tips
You kissed me and sucked away my breath
You fucked me and left me here for dead
You've given me one hundred thousand deaths
I'm bigger now
I'm stronger now
My fingers curl

- Gone
Stick me with pins
Peel away my skin
Pluck out my eyes
I can't stand to see you die
Dark skies have followed me
Into this hollow tree
Memories of moonlit nights
Replaced by this hopeless plight
- Halfway to God
At midnight's stroke, when prophets feed
My karma catches this saint's disease
And I won't listen to this heavenly facade
I've stopped my flight halfway to god
Why should I fly the entire way
When a thousand lost souls haven't been paid?
I've stopped my flight halfway to god
- I Am Stretched On Your Grave
17th-century Irish poem
lyrics
I am stretched on your grave and will lie there forever
With your hand held in mine I’d be sure we’d not sever
My apple tree, my brightness, ‘tis time we were together
For I smell of the earth and am stained by the weather
- Nova Heart
Architects of the world
I walk your streets
And live in your towns
Temporarily
Architects of the world
You've served us well until now
But soon we'll be
- Prayer
If I had a god…
If I had a god it wouldn’t be hard to go on
If I had a prayer…
If I had a prayer I’d say~
God, you told us too much
You showed us too much
- Rasputin
Look in these eyes of changing dyes
Let me dissolve your moral ties
I'll tranquilize I'll tantalize
I'll move you with my lusty sighs
Beyond darkened paths
you call my name
You want me
- Shock Me Peter
He'll chase away the skeletons harboured in your Christian closets
Salutations to a passenger of guilty trips
Of guilty trips well travelled
Well travelled and travelling
Thoughts of glory holes
Of angel kisses
Of golden showers
All cured by a holy bottle of H2O
- Skeleton Song
That girl
Where has she been?
Perhaps she never left
All this changing
Disguises staying the same
Why so angry?
- Stranger
Soft like a rose cloaked in daggers
Your grin I can lease for the anger
I'm sorry
You felt that
You needed to hide
The Different inside you
You know I'm filthy
- Superhero
Do you want to save your soul?
Take back all the things that they stole?
We won't resurrect the crusade
Now, cause it looks like we've been betrayed
Will someone come save us from this storyline of mass destruction?
Will they stay when they see what we have done, just to be free?
- The Body Lies
Your eyes can touch me
Your scent can embrace me
Your voice can graze my skin
And that’s what I’ll miss most of all
I want to believe it ~
and trust what the body can know
But the body lies
- This Hollow World
Woke up this morning, radio moaning
thoughts run in circles and set the day
I'm all burnt up
no resurrection
lying here slinging ashes at the sun
Can't find what I once knew
take me
- Worse Things
Once when I was all alone,
I called you, and you weren't home
My heart fell like a stone
to the ground, to the ground, to the ground.
Why, when morn had dawned on me,
and anger grew like ecstasy,
and leda threw the swan on me
and I fell to the ground, to the ground
