Criss Angel Album

Wake up
Wake up, she said
As darkness descends on his dim life
Wake up
I'm alive and alone
A lost soul in a world of illusion
If we are not one
Wake up, wake up... burn... Wake up, wake up

As a story of my life zooms out from my mind
I've come to realize that we're just but a million kinds
A piece of dust - lost souls in the wind
Do our lifetimes end before they begin

I'm so happy - I'm so gay
All is well - that ends well

Come alive - she said to me
I'm alive - you wanna be
Come alive - she said to me
I'm alive alone
I'm alive alone

Wake up, wake up
(Burn)
Wake up, wake up
Burn mother, burn, burn

A toe tag ends the tale of a life insignificant
Or so they say in the news today
Smiling faces - live for the moment
But before you know it
They'll be reading off the tag on your toe

Come alive - she said to me
I'm alive - you wanna be
Come alive - she said to me
I'm alive alone
I'm alive alone

Wake up, wake up
Wake up and live
Wake up and breathe
And burn mother, burn, burn
Wake up, wake up
Wake up and live
Wake up and breathe
And burn mother, burn, burn

I'm so happy - I'm so gay
All is well - that ends well

Come alive - she said to me
I'm alive - you wanna be
Come alive - she said to me
I'm alive alone(to me)
I'm alive alone(to me)
I'm alive alone(to me)
I'm alive alone.

You don't look hard to find
What's deep in your mind
It's easier to hate than see
Your convictions of stone
You kill off your own
You desperately want to be

Masses dead inside, open up your eyes
You're broken and cold, seeing your blindsight

(down, down)

Why's humankind going down
Am I the only one that can see it
Am I the only one that can feel it
Why's the human mind slowing down
Am I the only one that can see it
Am I the only one - why am I going down
(down, down, down)

I see through your disguise
Your self-righteous lies
Destroy what you don't understand
I cannot help but feel
That time doesn't heal
Impressions that will never mend

Masses dead inside, open up your eyes
You're broken and cold, seeing your blindsight

(You're going down, sucker)

Why's humankind going down
Am I the only one that can see it
Am I the only one that can feel it
Why's the human mind slowing down
Am I the only one that can see it
Am I the only one
Why am I going down

Why am I going down
Why am I goind down
You're going down, sucker
Yeah, yeah, sucker

I have come to realize
By look in your eyes
I'm staring back at me...

Why's humankind going down
Am I the only one that can see it
Am I the only one that can feel it
Why's the human mind slowing down
Am I the only one that can see it
Am I the only one
Why am I going down

Why's humankind going down
Am I the only one that can see it
Am I the only one (Why am I going down)
Why's the human mind slowing down
Am I the only one that can see it
Am I the only one
Why am I going down
You're going down, sucker

I live in the past
I can't move on beyond the pain
I feel no release
I wanna find my peace of mind

(you forgive)

My fear, my fear (ah, come on)
It's holding me stillborn (ah, ah)
My fear, my fear
(come on, come on)
I'll never be again

(Don't fear, don't fear)

You stole the innocence
From a child to be no more
Blinded by the silence
Afraid to ever speak a word

(you forgive)

My fear, my fear (come on, come on)
It's holding me stillborn (ah, ah)
My fear, my fear
(come on, come on)
I'll never be again

(Don't fear, don't fear, ah, ah)

Thinking on the times of my demise and
I wish it wasn't me the victimized
And I don't know
Really can't see
How I really couldn't kill
the mother fucker who violated me

My fear, my fear (ah, come on)
It's holding me stillborn (ah, ah)
My fear, my fear
(come on, come on)
It's holding me stillborn

Thinking on the times of my demise and
I wish it wasn't me the victimized (don't fear)
And I don't know, really can't see
How I really couldn't kill the mother fucker who violated me
(Don't fear)

Thinking on the times of my demise and
(Don't you)
I wish it wasn't me the victimized
(Fear)
And I don't know, really can't see
How I really couldn't kill

I'll run in my fear (?)

(Girl) God I love you...

You live to criticize me
(whisper) criticize me
Forget truth, minimize me
(whisper) minimize me
Won't reasure my mind
Hold what I tried to find
I'm just sinking down...down...down....DOWN

But will you call

Wicked thoughts parlize (parlize me)
Hate to love partonize (patronize)
Still won't believe my mind
And deep within to time
Why don't you understand me... me... ME

So I let you go

I'm drowning in the sea of my mind
I'm saving everything I left behind

(open your eyes, critize, sacrifice, paralize, finalize)

(Girl) God I love you
So I let you go

I'm drowning in the sea of my mind
I'm saving everything I left behind

I'm drowning in the sea of my mind
I'm saving everything I left behind

(critize, sacrifice, paralize, open up your eyes)

Automatically, emphatically... you know
I gotta let you go [uh, uh]

Automatically, emphatically... you know
I gotta let you go [uh, uh]

I had a dream
We're ruled by consciousness
Undemented eyes
Blind conditions
Procreation
Maybe I'm crazy, but you know I'm not some...
[Robot] nut job, not another nut job

(ahhhhhhh)
Stretch that skin
Spit me out
I'm not you
Procreation
(ahhhhhhh)
Rubber room
Body in the womb
Spit me out
[uh, uh]
Procreation

I can't forget
Real life sees... resurrects
See you plant a seed
My stomach gives
You're inside me
Maybe I'm crazy, but you know I'm not some....
[Robot] nut job, not another nut job

(ahhhhhhh)
Stretch that skin
Spit me out
I'm not you
[uh, uh]
Procreation
(ahhhhhhh)
Rubber room
Body in the womb
Spit me out
[uh, uh]
Procreation

[spoken] That pisses me off

[whispered] I'm not a nut job
I'm not a nut job
I'm not a nut job
[uh, uh, yeah]
Everyone's a nut job
But I'm not a nut job
(give it to me)
I'm not a nut job
(give it to me)
I'm not a nut job
Give it to me!

Automatically, emphatically... you know
I gotta let you go
I just can't go
It keeps suck, sucking me in
So, here I go
[uh,uh]

(ahhhhhhh)
Stretch that skin
Spit me out
I'm not you
[uh, uh]
Procreation
(ahhhhhhh)
Rubber room
Body in the womb
I'm not you
[uh, uh]
Procreation
I'm not a nut job
[whispered] nut job
I'm not a nut job
[whispered] nut job
I'm not a nut job
[whispered] nut job
I'm not a nut job
[whispered] nut job

[whispered] nut job
I'm not, I'm,
[whispered] nut job
I'm...
I'm not a
nut job, I don't think so

Twenty-one years of my life to go
Have I lost myself to someone else?
Truth, lie, to live or die
Makes no difference if you're never gonna fuckin' try

I know I'd die for you
Feed off my sorrow
(If you want me to)
I know I'd die for you
Bleed for tomorrow
(If you want me to)

Will you die for me?
But will you die for me?

See me standing, so fucking cool
Wish you would be like me - a fool
Truth, lie, to live or die
Makes no difference, you're never gonna fuckin' try

I know I'll die for you
Feed off my sorrow
(If you want me to)
I know I'll die for you
Bleed for tomorrow
(If you want me to)
I know I'll die for you
Feed off my sorrow
(If you want me to)

I know I'll die for you
Can you feel it, can you see it, do you want me to
(Bleed for tomorrow)

Will you die for me?
But will you die for me?

I want you to...
I want you to...
I want you to...
I want you...

Eight days I've been searching for someone
Looking for the reasons to keep hangin' on
I'm not sure how I should feel
It's gettin' worse 'cause you're not here
And it's crazy, losing to myself
All by myself

I'm gonna smack
I'm gonna crack
I'm past the point there's no turning back
Oh, damn, I'm gonna slam into the
Edge of the World

What do I want from me?
What can I ever be...?
What can I ever be
What I wanna be?
How can I change the way
Of what I know today?
Change me, Change me, Change me.
I'm getting closer to the Edge of the World


Help me I'm sinking six feet deep
I had enough but I can't let you go
Oh, oh
I wish to God you'd rescue me
And tell me who I'm suppossed to be
It's crazy losing to myself
All by myself

I'm gonna smack
I'm gonna crack
I'm past the point there's no turning back
Oh, damn, I'm gonna slam into the
Edge of the World

What do I want from me?
What can I ever be...?
What can I ever be
What I wanna be?
How can I change the way
Of what I know today?
Change me, Change me, Change me.

What do I want from me?
What can I ever be...?
What can I ever be
What I wanna be?
How can I change the way
Of what I know today?
Change me, Change me, Change me
I'm getting closer to the Edge of the World

C'mon,
C'mon, C'mon
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh

It's another Mindfreak going out of control,
Got my mind, got my mind get ready to blow
ahhhhhhhhh
? tickin', and my dreams are tricky, ? all around town

What do I want from me?
What can I ever be...?
What can I ever be
What I wanna be?
How can I change the way
Of what I know today?
Change me, Change me, Change me.

What do I want from me?
What can I ever be...?
What can I ever be
What I wanna be?
How can I change the way
Of what I know today?
Change me, Change me, Change
I'm getting closer to the Edge of the World

Ahhhhh
C'mon

I'm at the edge... I'm at the edge of the world

Why aren't you here
Why does life seem so unfair
You were strength in my darkest days
And I cannot face the world
Alone

I need you here

God tell me why
My friend is gone
My friend is gone
And I'll give up forever to be with you
So tell me why
My friend is gone

Won't you come back for me
In my dreams I want to see
All the promises we made come true
And to have just one more time - with you

Forgive my negativity
This world is cold and empty
They tell me time will heal the pain
But I know I'll never be the same
Without you

I need you here

God tell me why
My friend is gone
My friend is gone
And I'll give up forever to be with you
So tell me why
Why, God, my friend is gone
Why, God, my friend is gone

Tell me who I am
My friend is gone

All that I am is due to you
Do you see that you live in me?
Eternally I'll always be
Connected and reflected to your memory
Can you see me, can you feel me?
Can you hear me, can you heal me?
I can't take this, I can't fake this
I can't shake this
Life is so unfair

I need you here - please

Why
My friend is gone
My friend is gone
And I'll give up forever to be with you
So tell me why
Why, God, my friend is gone
Why, God, my friend is gone

So tell me why (To be with you)
God tell me why (To be with you)
So tell me why, God, my friend is gone

God tell me why (To be with you)
Why (To be with you)
So tell me why, God, my friend is gone
God tell me why (To be with you)
Why (To be with you)...

Welcome to a world of hate ~
Where does it come from, all this hatred?

I know who you are.
What's left to say? Get out of my face.
I can't compete with your expensive toys.
So what's the difference anyway, you do the same thing everyday.

Hate me for what I am, hate me for what I'm not.
Hate me with everything and anything you've got.

I know who I am. I know who I am.
I know who I am. What about you?
(x2)

Hate me, hate me, hate me for what I am.

Hate me for what I am, hate me for what I'm not.
Hate me with everything and anything you've got.

Hate me, hate me, hate me with everything, everything you've got.

Father, forgive me, for I have sinned.
Of what sin are you guilty?
I have been guilty of hating mankind.

Hate me for what I am, hate me for what I'm not.
Hate me with everything and anything you've got.

Hate me, hate me, hate me with everything and anything you've got.

Where does it come from, all this hatred?

Drive them, drive them all into submission.
Do not show the slightest pity or mercy.
Never stop. Now go, go.

Hate me for what I am, hate me for what I'm not.
Hate me with everything and anything you've got.

Where does it come from, all this hatred?

Lost souls seek for a way
To spend eternity together
One half chosen to stay
From the mirror of forever

Time can't seem to erase
The lonely desperation
Just a million faces

It's all about you
It's all about me
It's all about oneness
Eternally
Deadlove calling me
Don't you hear me calling you?

Living life as a lie
Camouflage reality
Visions through blinded eyes
Where noone else can ever be
Yesterday was alive (I'm alive)
Reflections of a fantasy
The only face i want to see...

It's all about you
It's all about me
It's all about oneness
Eternally
Don't you hear me calling you (deadlove)
Don't you hear me calling you?

Don't you hear me calling you?

I can't leave me
I can't leave you
I can't leave this
Alone

It's all about you
It's all about me
It's all about oneness
Eternally

Don't you hear me calling you? (deadlove)
Don't you hear me calling you?

Deadlove calling me
Deadlove calling me
Don't you hear me calling you?

This voice said, don't let them break you -
As I remembered, thinking: it's too late.
I'm already broken.

I'm so tired
So tired
Of my fear of the unknown
Do You Know

Do doo do doo doo. Do doo do doo doo doo
Mmmmm hmmmmm

Look to tomorrow
(tomorrow)
To show me what I hope for
Hope that tomorrow
(tomorrow)
Rest my fear of the unknown

(Do You Know)
Do You Know
(Do You Know)
Do You Know
(Do You Know)
how it feels
(Do You Know)
Do You Know
(Do You Know)
how it feels
(Do You Know)
Do You Know

I'm so tired
Do doo do doo doo. Do doo do doo doo doo.
Do You Know

It is the spirit of Houdini we wish to contact
Metamorphosis

It is the spirit of Houdini we wish to contact
Metamorphosis

As logic ends and she descends
Two less than zero

It is the spirit of Houdini we wish to contact
Metamorphosis

As logic ends and she descends
Two less than zero

It is the spirit of Houdini we wish to contact
Metamorphosis

As logic ends and she descends
Two less than zero

Metamorphosis

Are you here, Houdini?

Rage
saturates my inside
as my dreams turn to dust
Trust doesn't live there
...creeps in my head
Oh, I wish you were dead
To never, and never hurt me

Victimize
Patronize
(Patronize)
Words can't be spoken to erase
Shed my skin
To begin
Forever
Forever
It's too late for me

Feel my pain
(seep into your...)
It's too late
It's too late

Feel my pain
feel my shame
It's too late
It's too late
(forever)

It's too late
(for me, for me)
It's too late
Forever
It's too late
It's too late
Forever
Forever
Forever
