[No lyrics]

As I stare into space
You see my fall from grace
A madness slowly takes me
Is this to be my fate?
Like famine before the feast
I'm waking from my sleep
It's time to make a choice between the angel and the beast

Tell me it isn't so, just feel the ebb and flow
You madness slowly drowns me
I smile and let it go

As day turns into night
And wrong takes place of right
I see your motive clear
My love gives way to spite
I drank up all your tears, and fought to wipe your fears
But your illness, it kills me
And so the end is near

And so I woke, into the light
To touch your face, it felt so bright
But after light comes dark, and after laughter tears
I ate my cake to swallow my fears
I saw it dim
I saw it flicker
I pulled the plug, to make it quicker
In trying to give, I took it all
Flew into the light, and now I fall

I adore the light until it wanes
I got so close I burst into flames
I sought the light at every turn
I held you tight, until it burned
In trying to give, I took it all

I cast her into the void with a glad heart
She'll never know the pain I felt from the very start
I'd like to feel the rain, soaked through, once again
I start to feel the tears
I remember only pain
I turn to face the sun with a glad heart
We never know when to run until we fall apart
I cast her into the void with a glad heart straight down
I've done it now, don't ask me how
I wonder why it always has to die
Are we men or mice when we throw the dice?
Now my fate is bound, gonna go straight down
Got my head up high as I watch the sky
All I need is hope and for my neck more rope

Are we men or mice when we throw the dice?
Now my fate is bound, gonna go straight down

We knew from the start you'd rip out my heart
So with my submission I taste your derision
The pain in my soul can never be cured
The voices in my head never endured

I've done it now, don't ask me how.
I wonder why it always has to die.
Are we men or mice when we throw the dice?
Now my fate is bound, gonna go straight down.
Got my head up high, as I watch the sky
All I need is hope, and for my neck more rope.
Are we men or mice when we throw the dice?
Now my fate is bound, gonna go straight down.
We knew from the start, you'd rip out my heart.
So with my submission, I taste your derision.
The pain in my soul, can never be cured.
The voices in my head, never endured.
Are we men or mice when we throw the dice?
Now my fate is bound, gonna go straight down.

I just can't wash your taste away
I taste you, night and day
I try hard to close my eyes
It helps ignore your lies

I taste my tears again
And now I need your rain
And so, I forgive you now
I pay the price
I know how

I forgive you all the time
I just can't draw the line
The truth will light the way
The rain will clean, or so they say

A piece of me I cast aside
Something hardens deep inside
I can't wash your taste away
I feel your presence night and day
I forgive you all the time
I just can't draw the line
The truth will light the way
The rain will clean, or so they say

Sit back, enjoy the ride
Pointless to try and hide
I know you can't be found
I listen hard, but there's no sound

[No lyrics]

I need the beat to hit me where it hurts!
I need the beat to keep me going on!
I need the beat to feed the fear that grows!
I need the beat to beat me, all night long!

I breathe your air
I taste your lips
I bite your kiss
Your finger tips
I feel you close
I take your soul
Don't stop me now
So close to home
Your lips on mine
I'll push inside
You take my smile
I'll take your eyes
you hear me laugh
I hear you cry
I'll cut you up
You'll ask me, "why..?"
Just ask me why
I'll tell you why
We know you would
I eat your sighs
You give me blood
I'll give you lies
Just give you lies
Give me blood
I'll give you lies
Pushing...
Rushing...
Crushing...
I breathe your air...

I saw you standing there on your own
I had to stare
If only I'd known
I was so scared
I felt a fear
Would you care when I was near?
I stared so hard, all I could do
I couldn't get that close to you
My hands were cold
My heart was pounding
I felt so old, where I was standing
You danced with grace
My feet are lead
You touched my face
My world stoppped dead...

I need to talk
I need to cry
You'll be the answer when I ask why
Someone to hold until the light
When nights are cold
You'll do it right

My hands were cold
My heart was pounding
I felt so old, where I was standing

I need to talk
I need to cry
You'll be the answer when I ask why
Someone to hold until the light
When nights are cold
You'll do it right

A beating heart, a gentle hand
A place to make my final stand
To feel your lips
To touch your skin
To hear your heart, the life within
With sun in the sky
How can I fly
When my world stops dead?

Should we sleep, for a while?
Will you weep, or spit your bile?
Drench me like the rain
Wash my tears away again
I can't resist my only fate
Why are you so easy to hate?
You lift me from the floor
So easy to adore
Tearing me down anew
The same old thing you have to do
I'm the one you really need
Why do you want to make me bleed?
I know I'll fail your little test
I feel you pulling at my flesh
Your passion holds me like a storm
I need your breath to keep me warm

The slightest sound can drag me down
Your sweetest smile, like a distant isle
You're the light in my dark
But your shadow leaves its mark

I'll give you my control
Feel my pulse and taste my soul
Your hands are cold, around my heart
Slowly pulling me apart

The slightest sound can drag me down
Your sweetest smile, like a distant isle
You're the light in my dark
But your shadow leaves its mark

Take the place next to me
I'll take your fears and make them cease
I close my eyes
I need your kiss
There's nothing more I need than this

She takes me down into her world
She takes my breath, my scary girl
She licks me up and spits me out
She takes it all, except my doubt
She saw through me, my empty lies
It took one smile to seize my eyes
My body is free but my minds a chain
Tied to a dream till I see her again
Taking chances and stealing glances

She saw through me, my empty lies
It took one smile to seize my eyes
My body's free but my minds a chain
Tied to a dream till I see her again
Far from eyes and the light of the sun
To hurt a soul you don't need a gun

Feeling the rush, tasting the thrill
Looking for an emotion that's harder to kill
Don't need a reason, it's all in the mind
Look for a motive, just ask the blind
Can't hide the truth from her x-ray eyes
Hunting for gold between her thighs

I'm holding her down but I'm on the rack
Her sighs in my ears

Her claws in my back
We like what we do
We know what we feel
We live with our scars
They're all that is real
