At the close of every day
At the close of every day
there's a woman passing
Lover did you hear her say
her one last word
"We're all doing time"
Something’s closing
Haven't you heard?
The woman that we've tried to stop
now sits alone just waiting till forever,
forever makes me cry and I don't know
why all you people, put that into my head
I can't see why this conversation
is looking kind of dead
At the close of every day
There's a woman passing
Lover did you hear her say
her one last word
I'm often doing time
and I don't know just
why you reckon it would be
this day and Don't you see
that my heart's on fire
Your wicked wings that you
spread 'round me sometimes
All I know is we've got to aim higher
Babe I wish that we'd go
for the great escape
So you do praise a different light
and I am blinded by it, so sorry
that I made you cry
your faith in me it had to die
I guess that it's too late,
the lights are out,
the party's over baby
and now I wish I'd told you
Too late tonight
It’s too late tonight
to save all of you
I’ve got to hold on
and make myself like you
you went on the velvet way
and every dying day
you’ve got your own love to shake
into your mind again
baby I want to know
every breath that you save
And I’ll be there when you burn
And I’ll be there when you turn
It’s too late tonight
to go racing back for
it won’t work anyhow
the way you loved him so
go on your wicked dance
but every fight you’re in
you’re gonna end all alone
shedding your blood again
baby I want to know
every breath that you save
Every time it comes around
it picks you up and throws you down
All I know is I am bound
to fall over with you
Love, you must be thinking of love
Got to keep moving
lover you hide from me every time
Love, Oh love
And it’s too late tonight
to go running back for
it’s too late tonight
don’t break every red rose
It’s too late tonight
hold your head up
it’s too late to go.
All will wait
We wait for love to come
We’ll all go down
We’ll take our turns
We walk across
A new born world
All will wait for us
I sail along your shore
I broke you then
I’ll break some more
All will wait for us
The ship is turning over now
We’re trying to hold it up
just one more time tonight
Feel all right
been turning on that very point
You ought to stay, anyway
Don’t you wanna bring holy love today
Don’t you wanna Pray
Oh no yeah, all gunned down
hold your tears
and don’t you break my very own life
Hate, pulling me down
You will walk You will walk
Hot tears coming down hard
the pain inside don’t you hate
I know you
We just walk We just walk
All will wait for us
All will wait for us
Little things of Venom
Out on the scene today
blasted in every way, got you
caught on the other side
some things you just can’t hide,
feel the poison of change in me,
all that I’ll ever be,
comes back
crushing on into me
Here it comes again.
Has it spotted you, Oh no
Have they got you too, Oh no
Has it spotted you, Oh no
Have they got you too, Oh no
With every step it takes
Something inside me breaks,
hang myself by a rope of words
whether or not it hurts, got to
save you from all of your
demons that had to score, every
trick that you’ve pulled before
Here it comes again
We’re heading for a fall
set your mind at ease
won’t you save us from
these little things?
One of my feelings took
a ride today
into a black box and
it came out grey
We’re heading for a fall
set your mind at ease
won’t you save us from
these little things?
Believer
If I could be someone
within an hour or a day
If I could turn the wheel of fortune
Could you guess what I would say
If I could be a believer
If I could be whatever
you'd want me to be
A believer, a believer, a believer
Someone, someone
To make your every day
Yeah, someone just trying
to wipe them tears away
Yeah, someone burning fires
on the edge of every town
Yeah, someone just rollin
in your love as it comes down
And if I could see things different
If I could turn the clock of time
If I could rearrange the play love
I would never leave you behind
If I could be a believer If I could be
whoever you'd want me to be
A believer, a believer, a believer
Someone, someone
To make your every day
Yeah, someone Bitter morning
come on play your solid blues A believer,
a believer, believer
Then I might stop playing pretend
And if I could show you
my heaven I'd wear my thorny crown
I walk the stairs of seven
I walk them down
Dearly departed
Fingers numb, feel sick again
I call on you, you my friend
You’ve stung my heart
with your goodbyes
The lemon sweet of your lies
Let the dirt cover me
Kiss the sky, as you fly on high
Over all that’s left to be
I’ll see you when I fall
I’m so tired, put me to sleep
I dig a hole, I dig down deep
I see faces in the black
Grabbing hands pulling me back
I am lost within myself
No I can’t be someone else
So many things still left to say
I’ll see you when I fall
Face the phantoms in my sleep
They say time heals, will it for me?
With every cut you’re in too deep
As sorrow plants another seed
I let the dirt cover me
Kiss the sky, as you fly on high
Over all that’s left to be
I’ll see you when I fall
I’m so tired, put me to sleep
I dig a hole, I dig down deep
I see faces in the black
Grabbing hands pulling me back
I am lost within myself
No I can’t be someone else
And it makes me wonder why
All good things they come to die
Behold the sadness in my eyes
But I’ll forget and live my life
Though you’ll burn inside of me
I’ll see you when I fall.
Me and my melody
Oh lord, it’s pulling me down
Oh darling, how weak this crown
do you fail to understand
what is heartily now what’s in your hands
Oh creature, oh love, strained now
till we get enough I ain’t afraid no more
as they batter down the door
Who you are and what you say
you’ve built it up some other way
isn’t that crime, these tears divine
love you tear me up sometimes and
Oh darling you and me, stuck on time as we see
the outside world slip away till the dark,
the dark of the day
And who you are and what you say
What does it mean now anyway
throw off your crown, tread me down
oh baby stop all feelings now
And we’re worlds apart
helpless as we are you and I walk on by
our little love will die
Still walking the bridge to God thinking things
that I can not relate this to, what you say
bricks are falling down this day
Oh darling, the weeks to come ain’t nothing
but the sound of your drum
you can stay or walk away
As I, I long to say
Who you are and what you say
babe we’ve lost now anyway isn’t that a crime,
these tears divine
a river ’round your waist sometimes.
Stuck in tears as we’ve gone too far
babe you’ve built a wall that’s hard
getting through, getting through to you
Who you are and what you say
held down anyway Darling fear brought us here
Ooh, hey, Hold hands she don’t want me tied
her hand still stuck in mine Baby I long to see
Hey you, my tears won’t mend
Until the end
World weary eyes
You should have seen her
all her days are all filled with tears
You should have seen her
touch her greatest fear
You should have seen her stumble and
fall you should have seen
You should have seen her out on
the wire once again
You should have seen her missing out
on every chance
Oh the wall and the wicked
the storm in her mind
And the fire oh baby
she’s dying sometimes
She’s gonna leave it
to the others to sort it all out
And the fire oh baby
I want you to be now
I want you to be now
You will see when things change
she’ll soon fled the town
You will see there’s someone
holding her down
You’ll see her she’s the object of
a sickened kind of love
You will see her nights end
in pieces, once again
You will see her missing out
on every chance
I want you to Be now
whoever you want
See now whatever you want
the world is turning day by day
like you away from me
Oh your world weary eyes
Oh and should I fall into your
trap again
or should we just stay friends?
Life
Hey kid,
hasn't love bit you lately?
Well maybe,
still yet to come to fulfil
and erase, yeah raise
And circumstances dancing
around my head
It's the way to your soul
that holds me alive
Life, life
We forced up the fear
and that's why we're wandering
Life, life
Just hold on my dear,
isn't that why we're here, love?
Life, life
My baby she knows
the weight that I'm under
Life, life Life, sweet life...
I could slowly seek
and wonder
Many do erase
from the eye
Life, life
It's gonna be
life, Hold on tight to the life
It's going be
our little trial
Life, life And she,
holds me alive
Elegy
Hold still Don’t move I say
wilt thou hear my elegy
Head high
preserve my pride
I shall defy the gallows
I and you and me and
We just don’t know
What love can do
I pledge to you that
I won’t deceive
the heart that’s mine
As here I sit
I vow
your history
does not
perish my love
The shame
will be mine, for a
scarlet woman thou art
I and you and me and
We just don’t know
What love can do
I pledge to you that
I won’t deceive
the heart that’s mine
Dead from the grave
we’re all slaves
to what we’ve got
Love’s been through the door
for days
