The Angel that mauled
02:16
|
|||
The angel that called
couldn't break us
tangled with soft words
the hum that spawned a cancer
the angel that mauled
ment to save us
strangled with tough love
tears that might have mattered
the angel that lost
couldn't help it
stayed long enough to stall
fears that might have guarded
the angel that crossed
appeared to enlighten
thought nothing of the cost
generous with our blood

Storm

signs are hateful
time to suffer fools again
cue the faithful
who will lead us all to hell
should I mind that its fatal
when millions sing
crimes enabled
boiling slowly numbs the fear
glue disabled
that had held the fort for years
ran beguiled as they jailed us
while media jeers
the night must be tasted
to yearn the day through tears

Burnt
02:54
|

lure skewered knave
strayed close to the beam
felt warm all over
pitched headlong to please
made a torch
still burning
pure sure brave
maimed under the wheel
cried on a shoulder
volunteered to bleed
shone unsung
still hurting
burnt old rage
that no longer screamed
thought it was over
hid to shun the gleam
made to crawl
still yearning

I wish I could pray
02:51
|
|||
I wish I could pray
and lay to rest this open wound
soul barred the way
fear a leap of faith
that could seal my doom
to numb this pain
might mean no return
a golden cage
touch and reclaim
find my step
and then take my turn

Grace

|

Lets see how high you can take it
lets see how far away from grace
your part in the dream was to break it
good intentions meant no escape
lets see how long you can fake it
lets see how well you face the day
you're part of the scene and it made ya
a lottery away from being saved
put it down to weakness
put it down to hate

heal me
03:16
|
|||
come over and heal me
like only you can
this burning fever
has worn me down
come over and heal me
like I wish you would
this burden of freedom
is turning to hurt
all the kings horses
and all the kings men
couldn't restore me
like you do
all the gods angels
and mystical spells
couldn't enchant me
like you do

carrion
03:05
|
|||
A glimpse of the lure
seeps to the bone
spellbinds the seed
to parch in a malady
the river that roars
will make its way
the nature of beasts
is to take what is given
the scab of the sore
so 's not to lose face
will carry on spinning tales
of their vision
the ruse will hold
the gambit thrown
and hounds will bay
to their moon
where carrion gnaw
to fuel a rage
demons plague to undo
the memories
the ruse will hold
the gambit thrown
and the hounds will bay
to their moon

when neverness falls
02:59
|
|||
Time to pick up pieces
left behind as sand
Time to be afraid of nothing else again
When neverness falls
Time to take the cup
and take it like a man
Time to burn your bridges
and banish childish things
When neverness falls
Time to lose your grip
on all you ever had
Time to take your place
where only you can stand
When neverness falls
