"Truth?" I've been burning And dousing the flames I feel the whiplash Of the backlash on my face I melt to sleep at night But I wake to trip the day Never for you never for me Would I kiss your feet of clay I'm still alive and so should I Soak up the wave of compromise Am I the victim of youth Is this the truthh Why don't you tell me Why don't you tell me There's no conscience In charity or shame The voice deceive me But believe me its the same I see the black in white And the colour in the gray Better for me better for you Gonna bleach it all away I'm still alive and so should I Soak up the wave of compromise I see the scars, I hear the lies So what's the truth Why don't you tell me

"Turn To Dust" The concentration drifts In and out of me Conversation slides away Turn and face the change in apathy Take a rise to fall Won't you save me Don't you blame me I got the feel that I'm gone - Turn to dust Sentence Rape me Segregate me I got the fear that I am gone - Turn to dust Slave or sympathy it atrophies Save but ancient hearts Hiding scars and knives in symphonies Still we rise to fall [Repeat Bridge] [Repeat Chorus] [Repeat Bridge] [Repeat Chorus]

"Deliver Me" I'm tired of feeling hateful I'm tired and I can't breathe So tired that I would be grateful If you close the door when you leave That's me diggin' my heels in That's me with the holy ghost 'Scuse me but I don't remember Where were you when I needed you most And I'm tied to the sky As you claw at my eyes And I wait for the flood I swim in blood As I crawl to my knees And I beg your disease Taste the ice on your breath As you catch your death I close my eyes Embrace me Deliver me Hey you the voice of reason Hey you are you listening to me It's you that I can't believe in I don't buy what I don't see Say good-bye 'cause I don't need [Repeat Chorus] [Repeat Chorus] I close my eyes Embrace the wave Abandon me Save the day That I won't see Deliver me

"Gift Of Flesh" I am all destiny, a trade A grain of sand I am the lesson to be learned I take the throat of innocence And leave decay I stain the way for all to see No fear, no voice, no reason In God no guiding light When all the guilt that's in your head Turns its back and plays for dead You scorch the earth and torch the sky Conscience low with head held high Indulge and multiply And sacrifice As lack of breath chokes underground Divulge degenerate The darker side From windows watch the screaming sky [Repeat Chorus] When all the guilt that's in your head Turns its back and plays for dead You scorch the earth and torch the sky Conscience low with head held high From all the truth comes all the shame The curse of flesh just takes its aim On hallowed ground and tortured sky Walk in fear with spirits high

"Blood Runs Cold" I heard this line one time 'bout tryin' to save the world But have you ever tried to save yourself A wide-eyed suicide drive Remains a fake As if you'd ever Ever go and make the same mistake Strung out as the night comes crawlin' Your halo of thorns is fallin' Blood runs cold I feel it in my bones But you don't know your time is up Blood runs cold Somebody somewhere is screamin' out the words But do they ever really ease the pain I guess what I'm trying to say Is whose life is it anyway because livin' Living is the best revenge You can play This fall from grace I see your face It's over [Repeat Chorus] From you love was kind Resolved left scarred and blind Wasted and naked in the wings Denying twist of fate Demanding Heaven's gate Lying in wait above the wind Strung out as the night comes crawlin' Your halo of thorns is fallin' [Repeat Chorus] Blood runs cold Blood runs cold

"Where Does Love Go When It Dies" Could you ever steal a prayer to deny your God Could you ever buy your love and not count the cost Could you ever take a life when all was lost And would it ever be enough Could you bite the hand that feeds you and then ask for more Could you kiss the wound that bleeds spit it on the floor Could you open up your heart then close the door And would it ever be enough Every word you whisper All the tears you hide You die for love when it's alive But where does love go when it dies If you came across your dream would you walk on by Hold a candle to the wind and just let it die And is there room inside your mind for one more try And would it ever be enough I watch the time go rushing by it's like an ocean wave Showing you no mercy throwing dirt upon your grave You're drowning in the darkness and you're blinded by the light And there ain't no prayer that's gonna save you now If you woke up from your sleep blood on your hands Would you wash the pain away no one understands There must be someone out there who can help you breathe again And would it ever be enough [Repeat Chorus]

"Pearl Of Euphoria" Your price, name the time The suspect or the crime The shadow of my gun Get down or you can run Feed the demon, kiss the flame, feel your desire Empty room, turn the key You're never alone When you're with me Temptation, break the vow Cut flesh from the sacred cow Unchain the tiger, kiss the flame, feel your desire Feed the demon, kiss the flame, feel your desire Soaked in fear, the curtain falls Religion within these walls Mystify my soul beliefs Confession is my release Feed the demon, kiss the flame, feel your desire Unchain the tiger, crucify, feed your desire Pearl of euphoria Pearl of euphoria
