- A Letter to God
Is this life this degradation
This pointless game, humiliation
Born to die, we're born to lose
And not one choice we make we choose
And when this life is at an end
We find that Death's our only friend
Must we suffer through your games, oh Lord?
Can God really be so bored?
- Blessing
How can I believe in it something unseen?
How can I believe in a vision, a dream?
How can I believe in it something unseen?
How can I believe in a vision, a dream?
I should have known better than that, than to count you among my blessings
I should have known better than that, than to count you among my blessings
I should have known better than that, than to count you among my blessings
- Complex Messiah
You drew a line at being honest
You drew a line at being sincere
You drew a line at being there for me
You drew a line that much is clear
I don't believe that it was hopeless
I don't believe you can get something for free
And now I can honestly tell you
- Fear
Come take a piece of me, come cripple what you see, come be a part of what's inside
You wanted something more than what was really yours, come on and use what you despise
You're all I'll ever need - I'll never make you bleed - until I use you up - and still that's not enough
And all that I can see is insincerity
And all that I can see is void of personality
- Heaven Now
I don't want to bleed, I don't want to wait
I don't want to see the pain and the hate
That you need to feel, you need to feel alive
Down inside your soul, your blood and your skin
Numb to the cold and numb to the sin
And it makes you feel, it makes you feel alive
- Let Me Break You
What on earth went wrong
Just tell me what went wrong
Can't understand just how you feel
I know the end is near
But I no longer fear
That what we had was so unreal
- Letter To God
Is this life this degradation, this pointless game, humiliation?
Born to die, we're born to lose and not one choice we make we choose
And when this life is at an end we find that Death's our only friend
Must we suffer through your games, oh Lord? Can God really be so bored?
We waste our lives destroying, hating, while beneath our flesh a skull lies waiting
Blind to beauty blind to love, we fear of our loving Lord above
Some live their lives to play their games, some live as victims, the insane
Your experiment oh Lord has failed and I trust that when we meet you will forgive us
- Love You to Death
I die when I hear your voice
To touch you divine
Be my possession, my sweet obsession wine
I'm dealing in demons love
It's just a matter of time
I'll wear you down
One day you will be mine
- Nothing's Sacred
Nothing's sacred, nothing's pure, nothing's sacred anymore
Forget salvation, forget the cure 'cause nothing's sacred anymore
I've seen it all, I've seen it all before
It's such a bore, you sell your souls like whores
You've killed free will, free me of responsibility
You hope, you pray you'll be the one who's saved
- Pure
I, I used to be so sure
I, I used to be so pure
I cannot explain
I get lost in the pain
In the meaning there's a mystery that's hidden and locked
That's the paradox
You never know until it's too late
- Republic
You're being used, You're being lied to, In a desert without water
You are desperate to believe, You're like a lamb led to the slaughter
Self deceive, You won't believe, You're like a child who needs mother
You need guidance, You see violence as a way to control others
Do you think that ignorance sets you free?
Has slavery made you all you can be?
Is cruelty your new authority?
- The Beginning of the End
Your color's fading, your halo's looking dim
Hide behind hate, my patience has worn thin
How can we proceed? Just acknowledge what is true
The glutton and the guilty, the demon that is you
You have let me down, You have left me cold
You don't understand, You haven't won, You've begun, It's begun, The beginning of the end
I will not forget, I cannot forgive
- The Christmas Song
In this world of snow and cold I'll hide
In this world of ice I've built with pride
Of all things that I'd most like to receive
There's just one thing I really want this Christmas Eve
I believe, I believe it's you
I know you're out there waiting in the cold
All shimmering and blue and warm to hold
- The Kids Are All Wrong
Fame, hate, pain, It all controls you
Rage, fear, blame, It satisfies you
No one ever really loved you much anyway
No one really understands so you'll make them pay
They're the target they're the meat they're the animal
You're the star, you are pure, they're the criminal
- Untitled
Twilight the leaves fall,
The ground is oh so cold
Sing about God,
Sing on his death
Sing about love
And sing about sex
Your great mystery's a lie
Hypocrisy's the rule
- Where Good Girls Go to Die
Step into this picture, release all your light
I think God has gone mad here tonight
You can't believe your eyes, control is so hard to keep
Obsession can be hell from which you'll never be free
It's all for the taking, here tonight
Rip out your heart
I'll tear it apart
- Your Best Nightmare
Long after midnight, on a night like this
I'd sit by my black light and dream of your kiss
Pulsating music filled my room and my head
And I dreamed what it'd be like to have you in my bed
I'm your best nightmare
And then it happened, you were in my arms
