Shed your skin girl, shed your skin Dance for him like your mother used to Just like your father taught you He couldn't help but laugh at the girl Ripping out his eyes from his head Why don't you believe me? When I tell you you're imitating Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I'll be the can that holds dirty water I'll be your canvas you paint with I'll be the can holds dirty water this time Mice scratching at the walls in your head Mice scratching at the walls in your head I am the can that holds dirty water Beauty is in the eye of the beholder Trust is not a word that dabbles around our block Drink it down like you have the strength of fifty men Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I am the can that holds dirty water I am the canvas you paint with I am the can that holds dirty water this time Luck will hit the habitat Luck will hit the habitat Mice scratching at the walls in your head Mice scratching at the walls in your head Yow Funnier every time I see it Funnier every time I feel it Every time I lose it Funnier every time I see it, see it Mice scratching at the walls in your head Mice scratching at the walls in your head (Inside of me, inside of you) Mice scratching at the walls in your head Mice scratching at the walls in your head (Inside of me, inside of you) Mice scratching at the walls in your head Mice scratching at the walls in your head Mice scratching at the walls in your head Mice scratching at the walls in your head

For the record I must say It's sad to see you all pray All pray your lives away When in reality Why should we believe in something we can't see? A mockery, orchestrating hypocrisy Oh the irony Open up your eyes and There you go pointing your fingers at me You burn it in and out of humanity Now you see those clergy eat better than you and me They tour amongst the shores with stouthearted feet Trade stigma, ad harlots Golden letters, leather-bound looks Fight with fire and throwing stones Our world, it sheds when our rivers run red Fight with fire and throwing stones Our world, it sheds when our rivers run red We'll never know where we'll go Till there's a crutch to call home (We'll never know) (Where we'll go) We'll never know where we'll go We'll never know where we'll go We'll never know where we'll go

He's got an English smile And you wouldn't believe me when I tell you When I tell you it wraps around my heart like threads We disappear in here, we disappear It's where we can go to be alone People know it's true When you're the only two in a crowded room This chemistry will sentence us to death If there was a bridge that could stretch Across the sea from points A to B Our loved ones that- that we hold so boldly in our hearts and Minds wouldn't schedule us for a romantic gesture of a Hanging, this early Thursday morning In here, we... In here, we... In here, we are disappearing here Disappear in here...

She loves me (He loves me not) You've told me but I forgot I don't want to be the one you call on When you struck luck in golden ambers You kiss by the book, when you ride lies upon the throne Taurus; it's your year, be in for a surprise The naked force, eight eyes of a new era on my back A homecoming parade, from our tidy bed of roses What once was A new career you call it To catch a souvenir Of what once was, strict embarrassment And it makes you boil And it makes you choke And it makes you rally up the troops within your throat And it makes you boil And it makes, it makes you choke (It makes you choke) Choke When she is me Where is the naked force, eight eyes? Naked force and Birth the machines Invoking the spirits of fathers Take hand, earth, air, fire, water A motherly life and echo of a home Burn 'em out of their homes Burn 'em out of their homes Pillage the humans Eight eyes of a new era on my back Eight eyes of a new era own my back Eight eyes of a new era own my back Eight eyes of a new era own my back

Weeks are just numbers And numbers are nothing more than crushing stars Reveal my disposition as I hit the floor This distance won't label us Mask imprints left behind by fortunetellers Our vital bed lay grounded You will never label us Provocateur of turquoise ballets Pedestal to adulation Lucent skies from your eyes bleed Take my hand We'll always be joined at the skin I give you my word My love, some words of comfort here Some words of comfort here (Here) I am the one fearing open parachutes But if you jump I'm coming right after you Tonight we dine on each other Tonight we dine on each other's sound Tonight it will always be in our hands If life tends to keep us apart, I'll cradle myself into you If life tends to keep us apart, I'll cradle myself into you If life tends to keep us apart, I'll cradle myself into you

We all want to feel like we have a purpose We're all just numbers in the end we're time traveling Turn the lights off Turn the lights off Where do we go from here? Winter comes round' the bend When you're not plannin' our escape September is such a trend When the leaves fall red We bow our heads To the dead We bow our heads A funeral for a good friend To the dead To the dead To the dead (Un funerale per un buon amico, per i morte) You still swim around In the sound The Long Island Sound I can still see you swimming around You'll never let me drown In the sound You swim around When the whistle blows You know it's time to go When the whistle blows You know it's time to go When the whistle blows You know it's time to go "Hi, Krysta, it's Grandma. Just wanted to know how you're doing. I haven't heard from you, and I was wondering how things were going. Give me a call when you can."

And I miss you when you're gone He leaves me with a box of pearls Kissing pearls with no mouths Conceived in a birdcage, she grows The apple of her father's eye Swimming in a fountain of milk Built from bricks to the heart of thickness I can feel her Fingers spread To the beat of a kick drum She will be beautiful and we already know her name She will be beautiful and we already know her name She will be beautiful and we already know her name I've already laid eyes on the apparition of my daughter She's got that touch of you that makes her glow Softest harmony, sung aloud And she will be beautiful Our choir girl Venora (taste me, embrace me, our choir girl) Venora (taste me, embrace me, our choir girl) Our choir girl Mother nature's got craftsmanship While producing ghostly fruits She crept around the woodwork gracefully speechless

It's cold, down here My body lays next to a man I fear It's what you've said to me Before you've made me bleed Run Run now Faster, softer Pinned Pinned to the ground Her eyes remain on the stars in the sky Helpless, lifeless in a pool of blood Last thing she smelled, death around her It's what you've always wanted It's what you've always want It's what you've always wanted It's what you've always want It's what you've always wanted It's what you've always want It's what you've always wanted It's what you've always want It's what you've always wanted It's what you've always want It's what you've always wanted It's what you've always want She raises her hands to the sky One last breath Her body flows into the sea Let the tides lull her to sleep High tide lullaby Now The water radiates (She floats upwards) Sing her to sleep A glazed stare Sight no different from a blind man's He breaks out the chains And wraps them around her feet She drifts to the ground Laid her to sleep Laid to sleep Laid to death by a tyrant Body lay frozen At the bottom of the sea Her body lay frozen At the bottom of the sea Her body lay frozen At the bottom of the sea Her body lay frozen At the bottom of the sea

(Come on) The paranoia is in bloom, the PR The transmissions will resume They'll try to push drugs Keep us all dumbed down and hope that We will never see the truth around (Come on) Another promise, another scene, another A package not to keep us trapped in greed With all the green belts wrapped around our minds And endless red tape to keep the truth confined (Come on) They will not force us They will stop degrading us They will not control us We will be victorious (Come on) Interchanging mind control Come let the revolution take it's toll if you could Flick the switch and open your third eye, you'd see that We should never be afraid to die Rise up and take the power back it's time that The fat cats had a heart attack you know that Their time is coming to an end We have to unify and watch our flag ascend They will not force us They will stop degrading us They will not control us We will be victorious (Come on) They will not force us They will stop degrading us They will not control us We will be victorious (Come on)
