We Bury Our Dead At Dawn

Their whispers become like cries
Tears fall from blinded eyes
Ninty nine have burned as embers
Ninty nine have lost their lives
Tired arms now fight for life
Amidst the crashing waves they're drowning
Will you hold me until mornings light
And I'll tell you what it's like to die

Tonight it's too late to cry now
She sees her face and screams was once so beautiful
Now kissed by flames and showered with glass
So beautiful, yet so cruel

The way love tends to be
Her beauty so cruel
The way love tends to be
Her beauty so cruel
The way love tends to be

Will you hold me until mornings light
And I'll tell you what it's like to die
Will you hold me until mornings light
And I'll tell you what it's like to die




Habeas Corpus

Stabwounds will take their toll
Murderer with her smile and as an afterthought
She kept the heart he gave her
Beauty can be so cruel

She once swore him forever to make good
On her word ensured he'd never leave her
She lies and whispers loving words
He lay bleeding on this floor
A sigh, a kiss will end his pain

And she drives the blade deeper still
Come closer to me
Crimson streaks the pale skin of her face
From the spray of blood from his throat
His eyes ever questioning why she swore never to leave him

She lies and whispers loving words
He lay bleeding on this floor
A sigh a kiss will end his pain
And she drives the blade deeper still

Come closer, come closer
Come closer, to me
Come closer, come closer
Come closer, to me
Come closer, come closer
Come closer, to me




Judas

They shut their eyes now that night has fallen
And pray the wolves are kept at bay
For now the mist hang arms wide open
Like some cruel depiction of Christ

For now the silence comforts
Lost souls who in this moment hang
Gracefully by the dead, hidden by shadows
Who've come to take them in their sleep
Falling farther in darkness

Eyes wide lacking comprehension
As sillouettes dance in the flames
Their limbs bound by the shadows that seem
To stare back from the pits of black

For now the silence comforts
Lost souls who in this moment hang
Gracefully by the dead, hidden by shadows
Who's screams echo for eternity
Awakened by their screams

Like something of a nightmare
Lacking the desire to breathe
Wishing for the end




The Lines Of Suicide

my heartstrings cease to strain
i've aquired a taste for poisoned lips drank
deep of this disease
in me
adored with prying eyes
beneath
a mask made of flesh
and thorns

collected from the ones she'd loved before
collected from the ones she'd loved before
collected from the ones she'd loved before
collected from the ones she'd loved before

my heartstrings cease to strain
i've aquired a taste for poisoned lips drank
deep of this disease
in me
adored with prying eyes
beneath
a mask made of flesh
and thorns

her eyes were opened wide
she now could see forever
traced deep the marks she'd made
with her razor

her eyes were opened wide
she now could see forever
traced deep the marks she'd made
with her razor

the lines of suicide
the lines of suicide
the lines of suicide
the lines of suicide




Eyes Sewn Shut

Dead skin
Weathered, lifeless and torn
The eyes sewn shut
And tounge form the mouth
She lay bleeding, scarlet stains
Ripped out the stitches his hands
Blasphemy




Nausea

Instrumental




Shotgun Wedding

She wasn't born in that brothel I'm told
Well aware of where she was
Well aware of where she'd end up
In what position
Dressed in red down on her knees,
She'd done this sort of thing before
Choking back on this disease
Dressed to kill

To die for
To die for
To die for
To die for

Her pretty face hides the demons inside
The kind that haunt her in her sleep
She was found face down in that ditch
Her skirt hiked up
Dressed in red down on her knees
She'd done this sort of thing before

Make up
Chases the tears down her face
The handprints left on her throat
He hits her, she'd ask for more
He hits her, she'd ask for

Just, a little slut
She lost, a little slut
She lost, a little slut
She lost

Her pretty face hides the demons inside
The kind that haunt her in her sleep
She was found face down in that ditch
Her skirt hiked up




Vivid

In the midnight hour
We wished for dawn
Alas we've reached the final gaze

Pull the pins from beneath my skin
Kissing each of your eyelids closed
Murderer she looks beautiful bleeding
And the tears fell down

So tired I crawl deep inside of her
I stole a glance of your heart beating
I watched until your lungs ceased bleeding, breathing




Paint It Black

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens ev'ry day

I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facin' up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the settin' sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah




The Damned

Songs made of whispers
Silent screams like a choral of the dead needles
Prick the softest skin
And the breeze screams bloodlust
These eyes gazing over the hilltops burning red
The night skies seem to follow me
Blanketing me with crowds of grey and black

The crowd of the damned screams
Eyes shown red raise the dead
The breeze screaming
Over the whispers in the dark
Setting the leaves in sway

Hanging there like a body from the raftors
Smiling back at me they wait in eager circles
For me to stagger into the darkness
These images that I have seen
They still burn inside of me
