Angels in the Flesh and Devils in the Bone
And what will they say when your gone That you conquered That you burned like a rocket From the womb to the world And you ran with your colors And your flags unfurled And you ignited everything Like a gasoline rain Will they say you were insane while their life is grey And all of us go down slow And then we rise again Just like a tide out at sea We lower and rise again And the days go by And the nights all feel the same And the beast in your eyes Slowly becomes tame and dim Tame and dim

I squeezed and slid my wet way out. Into a world that was too damn cold. My pushing mother had no doubt. That the child would be something to behold. And all the church bells rang. All the angels sang. And I thought I should feel safe. But I was always watching, always. Yeah, yeahhhh And I can't slow it down, I watch the seasons roll. And I can't slow it down. Watch the seasons roll. And I can't slow it down. Watch the seasons roll. yeah! Angels! Why don't you save us? Devil! Why don't you take us? Take us from ourselves? Take us from ourselves! Take us from ourselves! Ahhyeah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah........ I know that I should feel safe. I'm always watching, I know that I should feel safe. But I'm always watching, I know that I should feel safe. I'm always watching, I know that I should feel safe. But I'm always watching I know that I should feel safe.

So you rise from the blood, Catching yourself in the mirror... Well did you get it on film? And monkey see monkey do. And it's another day, You are a star today... Aching to get in to see the show. They take the curtain down, Nobody makes a sound, The movie star in your heart is like a drug. Someone says here we go... And the pain dies, As the lights come down. Hold on. This will all be over soon, yeah... And as they speak, Their words destroy you. Ahh, their words destroy you. Just hold still Until the lights come down... Until the lights come down. So you rise from the blood. You got a steel gaze...cat's eye... Intoxicated by All of the people that you might be. And it's another day, You are a star today, Aching to get in to see the show. They take the curtain down, Nobody makes a sound, The movie star in your head Is like a drug. You whisper here we go... And the pain dies again As the lights come down. Yeah. You better hold on... You still haven't seen the end. When they get into your brain Let them reveal you... Ahh, let them reveal you. Just hold still... Until the house lights rise. Rise. Oh yeah... Oh... Come on and march. March... Into the aisles. Come on and march Out into the aisles... The day is over now And the time is drawing near When we'll go When we'll go When we'll go When we'll go When we'll go When we'll go When we'll go And we'll march. March. One, two, three... Oh, march, march, march again. Oh, march

Feast on me and Take your fill. And when I finish giving, Go and find someone who will. We are one you say, but Who are we? I'm lying on the table, And I'm high above the trees. And this beast must go on and on and on... And nobody gives a damn. Take a side you say It's black and gray And all the Hunters take the hunted Merrily out to play. We are one, you say, but Who are you? You're all too busy reaping In the things you never sown, And this beast must go on and on and on... Nobody gives a damn. Feast on me, and Take your fill and When I finish giving, Go and find someone who will. Am I talking a bit too loud? Am I acting a bit too proud? Well, it's always something, Then I'm gone away... And you're all starving. Starving. You're all starving... You're all starving... All starving...

With every twitch of the brain Comes a thick, black chain. Now see the body's a beast, And I am a rider, And whither the beast goes... So shall I. Shall I warm these bones By the Dark Nine Moans? See, the body's a beast, And I am the rider, And whither the beast goes... So shall I.

Good morning, children! How nice to see you again. I hope your ready for your lesson today. To build your spirits will help: We'll start erasing the self. Suppress those tiny devils Boiling in your bone. Your whole life, You've been softly fading. Once you were strong, But now degrading, And searching for a light to lead the way. That's me... I'm a holy spastic. I'll make you feel You're made of blood, In a world that's plastic. Take my hand, 'cause only I can show you the way... And all the way The sinister minister's grinning. What have I got to offer? What have you got to lose? In your alcohol haze... In the softest grace. When you could be mine, And even God needs lambs. And I am the shepherd... I am the shepherd. I hate to see you cry. And I hate to see you cry. I hate to see you cry. I hate it. And what do you want to suffer? What are you trying to prove? In your sick little phase... You got your hands up raised. And you could be clean. And you know I need lambs And I am the shepherd... You know I'm the shepard. I hate to see you cry. I hate to see you cry. Bleach that soiled life And take your place in line, yeah... You know your whole life You've been softly fading. Once you were strong, But now you're degrading And searching for a little light to lead the way. Well that's me. I'm a holy spastic. I'll make you feel You're made of blood In a world that is plastic. Take my hand, 'cause only I can show you the way. And now you know all the way... That I will be grinning

Hey, hey, medicine woman, Do your dance, Take the pain. Slay the lamb Slay the minister Make me whole again. Did you feel that? Did you like it? Straight to heaven, no need to pray. Don't make it all so complicated, Watch the background fade away. Hey, hey, let our legions swallow you. And we're only Half a mile from home. We're so lonely One more night alone... Don't leave me alone with him. (And the feelings closing in...) Don't leave me alone with him. (And the minister starts to grin...) Yeah. Hey, hey, astro-traveler Has your family gone away? Do they lambs obey the minister? For your wrecthed soul they pray. Did you see that? Did you like it? The way the sheep all flock that way? Don't make it all so complicated, Watch the background fade away. Hey, hey, let our legions swallow you. And we're only Half a mile from home. We're so lonely, One more night alone... Don't leave me alone with him. (And the feeling is closing in...) Don't leave me alone with him. (And the minister starts to grin...)

Some times I'm up. Some times I down. This indecision keeps me chained to the ground. Some times I high. Some times I low. Stuck in the middle, Jesus Christ, I've got no place to go. No where to go. Nothing to hide. 'Cause I've got nothing at all. You know I've got nothing. Feel the family fade. Feel the faith degrade. Why won't they please behave? Take me back! Sometimes I'm high, Say, sometimes I'm low... Stuck in the middle, Jesus, I've got no place to go. Got no where to go. Nothing to hide. 'Cause I got nothing at all. I've got nothing. No where to go. Nothing to hide. I've got nothing at all.

Choking up dust on a mexican bus, I Gave birth to a brand new concept, Then doubled over, and my days are numbered. Read about sun rise given to a new town, Can't breath and I move so slowly And the sky is humming, and my motor thunders. Shall we ride into the white hot dawn? Tomorrow all will be known. Your feet will rise from the storm... And you go through the sky. Until then I'm all you've got. Until then, I'm all you need. I'm everything Every day. Take a back seat to a sweet companion. Must say something to control it. The world is watching, and I'm outnumbered. Don't fuck with a greater man you said, I don't fuck with a man in control. The sky is humming, and now my motor thunders. Shall we ride into the white hot dawn? Tomorrow all will be known. Known... Known... Known... All will be known. Known... Known... Known... Known... Known... And take my wings and I still roam... Break my glass and break my bones... But I'll be beside you. And take these thorns from out my feet While you walk these wretched streets... I'll be inside you. And now... You're inside me.

Am I getting through? Am I losing you? Just give me some little sign. You're drifting out to sea... You can't do this to me. I gave you all that was mine, Yeah... Do you see That you were always alone Until you befriended me? How you've grown... Just take a look at yourself. The stranger has found a home. And I could leave this place, And I could almost fly... If I could only just reach the window... One, two, three, four... You had sex on television, Watched a clock. Did you never notice that your life has stopped? Changing, Think I'm arranging In some thin little ways. And you cry... Take me away sister, Won't you leave me astray sister? Was my taste not as sweet... As your tongue wanted? You need me, we're the same. You need me, we're the same. You need me, we're the same. You need... Yes, it's a shock. But trust me, you'll feel better after. I see- I see you must have lost your way, But I can bring you back again. Go through the sky again, Breath, open your eyes, Feel your skin grow cold... I can bring you back again. Be yourself again. I was so kind... Went nearly out of my mind. But I was thinking of you the whole time. And I gave you all that was mine. I gave you all that was mine. I gave you all that was mine. I gave you all that was mine. I gave you all that was mine. I gave you... I gave you... I gave you. Come back to me. Come back to me. Come back to me. To come back to me.

Golden Head, and feet of clay. And someone said it looked like me. You know you're not to blind to see... His golden head and feet of clay. Look in his eyes and see the disease... But in his mind he's free and clean. And when the water washes you clean... You see the disease eating me. You see the disease eating me. You see it eating me. You see it eating me. You see it eating me. You see it eating me...

Go to the window, boy. Become what you would destroy. Feed yourself on dissonance. Make your belly grow... And take heed of the cry Of all the sirens outside. You know that this will be your inheritance Up from this plateau... Where have those days gone? South with other wings? I'll just learn to settle on Slightly lesser things. Gripped on my face, Hold my place With a cold grey vaccine line And I'm fighting off a cold, Slowly getting old, Slipping perfectly Into the design. And I'm drooling my drops of wine. Do you remember how we swam Out beyond the dams? When we were diving down with confidence... Up from our plateau. Where have our days gone? Have they gone south with other wings? I'll just learn to settle on Slightly lesser things. Grab to keep pace In an endless race. Coveting yours And clutching mine. Just take me back, Take me home, Can't find my way... My way back home.

This is the last time I will never feel this way again I'm gonna see that swollen river take my wretched body in With your street lamp for a soul I am just one of many insects in your light in your light in your light So I call on the dogs again Nobody said you could go You wanted to watch me bend Well, now I'm gonna put on a show All things need an end Come on, six feet to go Sad eyes, just look at him try. Cold man, he's been poisoned from inside. I'm a legless thing that lives to run A useless thief who's frightened by the night In the night in the night in the night And so I call on the dogs again Nobody said you could go You wanted to watch me bend Well now I'm gonna put on a show All things need an end Come on, six feet below There's still six feet to go Now that you know If these are the last days, do you feel like holy man?

Come out little mosquito, And prove you are my love. Preach to me a strange obsession Poised on a highway of blood. Highway of blood... On a highway of blood. Yeah. Creeping up my staircase... Switching off all the lights. Nobody can see us now, Show me you can bite. Bite. You gotta try it To know what it's like. As mosquito drives the spike. I made a choice, God lost the fight, And I don't hear him crying. Oh... Don't hear him crying. I don't hear God crying. Yeah. On wings it hears me calling. Desire is of a sting. Brings me the identity I came to this world missing. Yeah, missing... Missing. I remember your father... But do you remember me? Did I leave a footprint In the dust of your memory? Down in the dust? You've gotta try it To know what it's like... As mosquito drives the spike. And I made a choice, God lost the fight, And I don't hear him crying. Yeah. An' I don't hear him crying. Yeah. Come out little mosquito, And prove you are my friend. I can't turn the lights back on... Is this how it ends? Is this how it ends? "Hey, baby..." "where you at?" "There you are..." "what the fuck'd you do?!"

The heat has a taste. It tastes like a flame. You drink up the flame, and it burns your flesh away. And in the city of clouds, You're just a face in the crowd. But you take up your place, And you throw yourself away, Everyday of your life. Well, take a breath, and take a seat, and take your medicine. Close your eyes, and cauterize the wound you're opening. Well, all these lives, that make no sense. All along we cry in our defense. And all of us go down slow, And then we rise again. And just like a tide on the sea. We lower and rise again. Well, and the days go bye and the nights all feel the same. And the beast in your eyes slowly becomes tame. Someday you will change. Hey hey hey heyyy This world has gone and drug us along And nothing's the same, and it will never be again. It's never gonna be the same. And all these lives that make no sense. All along we cry in our defense. All of us go down slow, Then we rise again. But just like the tide on the sea. We lower and rise again, and again. I said, the days go by and the nights all feel the same. And the beast in your eyes, slowly becomes tame and dim. Someday never comes. Ooh! The snake strikes, To give, Life!
