Hand of Silk
03:28
|
|||
V1:
Gathered in the mine and shackled by the bone
Pieces of the mind and desires of the fool
Poisoned to the tone of what I see in you
Feeding on my dead friends and taking what I choose
V2:
Stolen from the crowd and thrown into a cell
Latched onto the bars and summoned to the floor
Talking bout my dead friends and If i'd bleed for them
What's it mean to me and what's in it for you
Chorus:
What's it mean to you for me
Held up by the role of man
Wrapped inside a hand of silk
Carved into a mask of blood
B:
For you
For me
For you

Cut Him Loose
03:26
|
|||
V1:
A crystal palace on an unknown plain
The holy mace of disarray
A shallow hole to wash it out
A cleaner way to say farewell
V2:
sinking feet and a soulless dance
What's to say when you're insane
beating drums and the heavy sun
Roll away from this unknown grave
C:
Fill his lungs
Cut him loose
Unconcerned
Strung up by design
Tasteless boy
Broken toys
You and I
Strung up by design
B:
Fill him up

Eyes of Eden
04:51
|
|||
V1 :
Gather around now, it's your beast and burden
His every thoughts lie, to your creator
He's the master, and you're the key
Clawing sideways in the creation
V2 :
Burst of lightning, your eyes of eden
Take my hand child, and part the water
Plague of darkness, a simple reason
Count me out now, I'll leave a pardon
C:
Seeking out what isn't mine
Falling in and letting go
Piece by piece it goes to show
What's it mean to be alone
|

Tin Man
03:25
|
|||
V1:
Hey soldier, marching down the road
Poor soldier, little would we know
Dead soldier, where would you of gone
Little soldier, why'd you have to go
V2:
Hey soldier, this is where we'll meet
Hey soldier, this is where we'll greet
Poor soldier, tore apart his chest
Dead soldier, heaven is his friend
V3:
Hey soldier, where are you now
A soldier, marching in the clouds
A soldier, doing what he's told
Dead soldier, doesn't have a soul
C:
Packed into a stairway which leads nowhere
Fall into the void and scream but no ones there
Choose your battles wisely as you are simply a tin man in hell
B:
You seem so out of sorts
Didn't you get the memo
We all are bound to fry

Gone Girl
03:48
|
|||
V1:
Lie awake in the fields of another gone girl of mine
oh but I know where this will go and I sway to my knees and I kiss the ground beneath my feet
Cause I know oh I know just let it go
V2:
And I pass the statues of a man covered in glass
who sides with the one I knew in the fields of gloom when the stakes were you
cause I know oh I know, just let it go
C:
Sweet Love of Mine
Sink into me
B:
Don't let go you've got a heart to let it show
Don't blow fire you've got a know to let it go
Don't reside in the echoes of the mind
Hearts of gold mended in a vile
|

Black Cat
04:26
|
|||
V1:
Towards the black cat of the night a hint of the fight distorts what we see and what we know
Crash into the canvas of a plain a taste of your grace ignites a flame
V2:
Brush off all the dust the pixies and the lust a coroner to bust a simple plan
With my hatchet and my cross I will not confront I'll become of one Inside you
C:
Take you away from the mounds of pain
Stand to the beat of the marching feet
B:
It's just a funny tune
Just crash and burn
A stack of two
So bleak but true
A kiss of death
A table without any legs
|

7. |
Chariots
04:01
|
|||
V1:
A Sweetness fills my lungs
A tongue that's like a gun
The softest words that Ive heard
Convinced me of your concern
V2:
This voice that's inside my head
Tells me to pick "up the dead"
Dissecting all that I've known
A slave to this terrible show
V3:
And now I roam through the court
Sick and broken to the core
But that's okay because I
Have nobody by my side
C:
Golden chariots in silk run free
Wrapped in a blanket of it all, what more
Discretion reeks of hope
B:
Shoot it up and take your time
A ticking clock writes tomorrows lie
And that's okay because I am fine
Leave me be and don't say goodbye

Cellar Dogs
04:48
|
|||
V1:
Green wide eyes in a haze rattling
Cut and burn loosen up in a night
Parasite in my head in my bones
V2:
Straddling on the floor with a knife
You and I we burn alive take it all
What's there to a secret for you
C:
Oh god damn, this ride
Cellar dogs, unite
Plastic hands, cold eyes
If we meet, I do
|
||||
9. |
||||
V1:
What you know and what you see
A god to us is a god for me
V2:
See you run and cross my feet
Let them in and let them be
A moment of led you to be
A busted image on a burnt-out screen
C:
You don't know what you don't see
A mighty palace for an unborn king
Chew your meat and spit your greens
A quiet hammock on a crowded tree
B:
Come along and join the fun
A healthy taste of your afterthoughts
|
||||
10. |
See the Sun
03:48
|
|||
V1:
Descending to us
A cloud in the sun
Don't fear the one
Just listen to the voice
A booming reminder
Of what was once one
Apart of you
Apart of me recedes
V2:
Close all your eyes
Feed off the light
The seven seas
Are glistening at once
A break in the wind
A soft tasteless sin
Divinity, deity
What more?
C:
Let's see the sun
Let's have our fun
Let's be of one for now
|
||||
11. |
||||
V1:
A cancer to the soul
A hammer to the dome
Brother please come home
Drifting in the wind
A reason for the bends
An epiphany for it all
V2:
Cryptic to the touch
Desires feed the lust
A phony intuition
Eyes that burn to touch
A hand that turns to dust
Chewing out your guts
C:
Gone with the wind you sail
B:
Run away
