2. Anomie
Opening the door in the darkness
Finally anxiety has a face
All this blood and all this pressure
We could be growing if we had the space
And like this thing without a place
With a hole for home and life alone
My sanity's not far behind
Like a drug for children (never given)
Pacifies your sleepless mind
I use a mirror for a window
Nothing gained by looking out or in
Looking like a scavenger of sin
With a hole for home and life alone
My sanity's not far behind
Like a drug for children (never given)
Pacifies your sleepless mind
With a hole for home and life alone
My sanity's not far behind
Like a drug for children (never given)
Pacifies your sleepless mind
3. Hell is a Desert
Every night I'm taken by the legs and then...
Every hour awakened by the drugs again
A downfall every day
I can't cry anyway
It makes no difference over time
Confessed in whispers on the borderline
Every time a stranger hears the lie
(While passing by...)
A downfall every day
I can't cry anyway
I'll take my chances in the dark
4. There and Back
There's the answer waiting on your face
Where's the mirror when you need it bad?
I have seen your cemeteries
I have seen your flying ghosts
If you think you'll take me back
You're dead wrong
Back again or maybe never fades
Like an echo hanging in the mist
I have seen your cemeteries
And I have seen your pools of blood
If you think you'll take me back
You're dead wrong
5. Under No Flag
I told you I could never make it
There was some truth in that, it seems
Outside these walls I've been created
Maybe you'll see me in your dreams
Just fragments, only filaments
From a distance nations wide
Correspondence (really evidence)
Of a certain suicide
Do you want me as a memory?
Wish granted long ago
Or a heart attack? On contact?
A broken promise to a dead man
Lie down here and disappear
Invisible to all the world
Without a friend exist again
Tonight
Like a footprint, like feedback
Fades faster than you know
It gets worse in the universe
Black holes start to show
Lie down here and disappear
Invisible to all the world
Without a friend exist again
Tonight
6. You Get Nothing
7. 11:58
I've been in this house a hundred times or maybe more
This corridor I never knew was here
Holding in a breath while I am opening a door
The continuity is clear
8. Midnight
Look outside the window as the ocean's on the beach
Haunted hills are waving like the sea
Watching generations drifting deeper out of reach
There's only one survivor and it's me
Dreaming high and flying by
Into another night
Midnight - I can start to see the light
Midnight - All four walls are white
Midnight - Still not dressed right
Midnight
Dreaming high and flying by
Until another night
Midnight - I can start to see the light
Midnight - All four walls are white
Midnight - Still not dressed right
Midnight
9. Attack of the Spiders
It's an eight-leg showdown
As they drop down
Hot sweat web threat
Just above your head
It's an all-night black scare
Lifelong nightmare
Comes true, covers you
Thrashing in your bed
And now you're half awake
But you still shake
It's a lights-out deathstrike
One touch deathlike
Overcome, scared dumb
Waiting to be saved
In an eight-blade knife fight
Ending tonight
Bedroom your tomb
Sleeping in your grave
You could be lying still
Still there will be
Webs of intrigue intertwined
Headless answers you can't find
From your ceiling to attack
You, the victim, on your back
On your back!
Although you're half asleep
Know you'll be in
Webs of intrigue intertwined
Headless answers you can't find
From your ceiling to attack
You, the victim, on your back
On your back!
10. The Snitch
There's a secret in the water
And a neighbor knowing well
Watching in too closely
And a chance that he would tell
Left him wading there
With a blade in his back
Murder was the message
Making curses in disguise
Many could be watching
But not one to trust to lie
They'll be from anywhere
And they won't come back
Water serves the silent
Like a chapel for a corpse
Fatal friend, fatal friend
The sanctity of secrets
Can be silently enforced
Down again down again
And you'll be deep in there
With your family in black
11. End of Earth
Fiery day, it's coming our way
Dig me a ditch so I can stay
I could live on hunger like you live on love
No good any longer, what you're made of
Suits you well, dying in hell,
Well, farewell, the fire fell
And you will turn to screaming children
Burning softly in your beds
12. Death in Time
13. Endless Guilt
This is where she cut your wings off
This is where I wept for you
Watched your blood run through the village
Watched your body snapped in two
And there's not a fucking thing that I can do about it
But to spend my life in horror knowing I chose this way
Old enough to shiver with the season that was blowing in
But young enough to think that it could end one day
Guilt Run Rain
Run Fall Shame
Fall End Wrong Run
End Black Game
Now I sleep face down in vomit
Now I'm nauseous constantly
Down that hole went all the magic
Down that hole went me
And there's not a fucking thing that I can do about it
But to spend my life in horror knowing I chose this way
Old enough to shiver with the season that was blowing in
But young enough to think that it could end one day
Guilt Run Rain
Run Fall Shame
Fall End Wrong Run
End Black Game
And there's not a fucking thing that I can do about it
But to spend my life in horror knowing I chose this way
Old enough to shiver with the season that was blowing in
But young enough to think that it could end one day
Run Fall Shame
End Black Game
14. No Answer
I see my brother's face
I see my brother's face
I see my brother's face
I see my brother's face
I see my brother's face
I see my brother's face
I see my brother's face
I see my brother's face
