Album • 2016
Blood-red and sweet Mouthful of wine I savour it And taste the freedom On your lips And heaven knows I tried To steer away Delicious danger Made me stay Now I'm closer Closer to the edge Closer to experience All of life and all of death Oh I'm falling Closer, closer to the edge Closer to experience Into love and out of breath I am falling Blood, red and sweet Spill in excess Stick to our hands And in its rush we both shall rest And pain nor fear Can break This bond, our chain Together for our crimes We'll pay Some kill their love when they are young And some when they are old Some strangle with the Hands of Lust Some with Hands of Gold The kindest use a knife because The dead so soon grow old Yet each man kills the thing he loves By each let this be told

Your voice is thunder pounding on my soul My voice is rain We're going under Nothing will remain We'll be the hurricane And I can't calm you down Though I try and try in vain And you can't keep me down But I'll try to share your pain And we'll never back down We'll let it storm and rain We'll be the hurricane We'll be the hurricane You gathered all the clouds Safely overhead I try in vain still we're going under Nothing will remain We'll be the hurricane And I can't calm you down Though I try and try in vain And you can't keep me down But I'll try to share your pain And we'll never back down We'll let it storm and rain We'll be the hurricane We'll be the hurricane All the times that I nearly broke your heart All the times that we nearly fell apart Let it thunder over me my love please let it thunder over you All the times that I tried to make you scream All the anger and trouble to redeem Let it thunder over me my love, please let it thunder over you

Hey, are you in there? Don't you remember me, your oldest friend Are you in there? Don't you remember how I've always been The one who cared when no one else did Hey, are you aching You used to turn to me when you were down Are you breaking? You can still trust in me to turn it all around And calm you down Just remember we're a team How do you feel? I don't... How do you know You won't... To let go of you I will fight Until my last breath Hey, are you still mad? About the time we almost went too far I know your regrets In my defence; By now, it's just a scar that distracts you from your broken heart Just like you wanted it to do Don't deny me! Do you want to try me? I know exactly what you need Don't deny me You know the comfort of the blade Don't deny me! Do you want to try me? I know exactly what you need You're nothing without me You're nothing without me You're nothing without me

Time's moving onwards Pushing and pulling me Offering no release Where do we go now Why can't we pause and stay I'm hanging on the Pendulum below the clock Please swing slower, make it stop Can we end the endings? Can we make believe this will last forever? I don't mind pretending Still you push me Still you push me Faster Time's moving onwards Turning the night to day I'm jumping on the brakes Where does this thing go Why can't we pause and stay I'm just afraid to Realise as I look up Who's getting off at the next stop

Just 'cause it's part of a plan That doesn't make it right If I put my life in your hands It's still unmistakably mine Dark its wings across a pitch-black sky: Death will come for me, but not tonight Let the earth cover me! Angels will call for me! But in time Not tonight I said I'd walk the mile Not that I'd walk in line I can not promise I'll smile But I can promise I'll try If I ever make another vow It's to live for what's right here and now Let the earth cover me! Angels will call for me! But in time Not tonight It's the Art of Death Give me your best Give me your darkest It's the Art of the Fall That comes for each and all But I'll keep it waiting for me It's the Art of Death Give me your best Give me your best

Scandal - Now you've left me all the world's gonna know Scandal - They're gonna turn our lives into a freak show They'll see the heart-ache, they'll see our love break They'll hear me pleading, I'll say for God's sake Over and over and over again, Scandal - now you've left me there's no healing the wounds Scandal - And all the world can make us out to be fools Here come the bad news, open the floodgates They'll leave us bleeding, we say you cheapskates Over and over and over again So let them know when they stare, it's just a private affair They'll have us hung in the air and tell me what do they care It's only a life to be twisted and broken They'll see the heart-ache, they'll see our love break They'll hear me pleading, I'll say for God's sake, Over and over and over and over again, Scandal, yes you're breaking my heart again Scandal Today the headlines, tomorrow hard times And no-one really knows the truth from the lies And in the end the story deeper must hide Deeper and deeper and deeper inside

I was here When the first morning dawned upon you I'll be there I was here When you first ever drew a breath in I'll be there For the last living thing And I will turn the lights out Turn the lights out Turn the lights out And lock this wicked world behind me Lights out Turn the lights out Turn the lights out And lock the universe I was here Will you welcome and recognize me I'll be there I was here Will you dread me, will you despise me I'll be there For the last living thing And I will turn the lights out Turn the lights out Turn the lights out And lock this wicked world behind me Lights out Turn the lights out Turn the lights out And lock the universe

I looked at the stripes The monarch flies I halt my cries If my friend, If you can change Perhaps then so can I I looked at the markings And I looked down to my own You're here, I thought Transform I said And show them how you've grown
