Well, I ain’t good looking, but I sure ain’t shy
My friends think I’m ugly, I’ve got a masculine style
Useless venom on the tv screen
You pay a hundred dollars just for filling up the screen,
You pay your hundred dollars just for filling up a screen.
You should meet me when I’m in my prime,
You should come back baby, in a few years time
Now she’s off the menu, time to come back down,
The name I used to scream is such a heavy fucking sound,
The name I used to scream is such a heavy fucking sound
Shake, baby, shake
Dead black cat just lying in the road
Honey you ain’t bad, you’ve got a complicated soul
Solitude carves bits of sanity away
Such cold company that you keep day to day
Well is it jail or hell? Can you check my file?
If I’m burning forever, I’m submerging in style
You’re quite the companion, take me to the top
You’ve got all my worst parts and that’s why I can’t stop,
All my worst parts and that’s why I can’t stop.
Shake, baby, shake
Saw God’s name torn from a wall
Like a dead dog falling from a brick walled bridge
Saw the darkest moments by your side,
Like the devil’s eyes in my headlights

When you see yourself
Do you feel like dying
There’s an unstable state
That I feel that I’m in
There has to be a way
For tomorrow
While time slips away
With or without you
I’ve been praying for some rain
Nothing came
Darkest days, they go by
Turns dark red
I’m your hate, you’ve been blind
This whole time
I’m your pain, trapped inside
Pale blue eyes
If I show you my dark side
Will you still hold me
All my weaknesses,
Then will you know me
There has to be a way
For tomorrow,
My life slips away
With or without you
I’ve been praying for some rain
Nothing came
Darkest days, they go by
They turn dark red
I’m your hate, you’ve been blind
This whole time
I’m your pain, trapped inside
Pale blue eyes

Hanging me the devil
Sold her soul again
Razor shaves her hair off
We’ll find another way
Buried me an angel
Summer in the rain
Holds me like a mother
Wash away the pain
Why is it wrong to wash my pain away?
There is a white thorn in my side today
Burn until my head hurts
You’ll see it in my eyes
My wings were sewn in half, dear,
Beauty trembles as it dies
Hell’s inside these lyrics
Crawling in my brain
She still calls me sweetie,
It’s driving me insane
Why is it wrong to wash my pain away?
There is a white thorn in my side today

Even Angels

Never seen such suffering
And never seen such hypocrisy
Searching for your euphoria
Fill that hole with the shit you love
So you will crawl
Even angels fall
Funny you mention heroin,
She makes me suffer to my last breath
White noise voices, no other friends
Not afraid of the grave, can’t wait for the end
So you will crawl
Even angels fall
Never meant that much to me
But never seen such hypocrisy
Searching for your euphoria
Fill that hole with the shit you love
So you will crawl
Even angels fall

Face your God

One more coffee for the road
One more hit before I go
Get me out, it starts to burn
I’ll forget more than you’ll learn
Come face your god
Confess your sins
Come let it out
And let me in
Get me out it starts to burn
I’ll forget more than you’ll learn
I can’t take this anymore
But I’ll pretend for just one more
When it’s my time just tell mine
I’ve got business on the other side
It’s a death sentence you’re right
The same is said for every life
Come face your god
Confess your sins
Come feast your eyes
On the face of sin
Get me out it starts to burn
Some hold tight and some will turn
I don’t care anymore
But I’ll pretend for just one more

Black Wings

I'm used to pain like a dirty, black gutter
Say what again, say it one more time, motherfucker
In Jesus’ name you’re a pedophile, brother
I used to see like a suicide, pull me under
Back to your warm breasts
Back to your black wings
And you sooth my head
Into your black wings
She seems to sleep like a dirty, sweet cover
Get on your knees, honey, would you please, pull me under
Nothing is free, I’m just in between mothers
I used to see like a suicide motherfucker
Back to your warm breasts
Back to your black wings
And you sooth my head
Into your black wings
Like the world’s last pack of smokes
You savour its farewell
Till the world’s last pile of butts
Looks appetizing as hell
Till the sounds, they drown you out
Immortal in my eyes
Crooked soul, a heart-shaped hole
Still carved inside of my mind
And I’m back to your warm breasts
And I’m back to your black wings
Thought you said you’d be my friend
I thought you said you’d be my friend

Gone

I can’t think of what to say,
I can’t think of what to say, just keep moving on
Longest night, it starts to fade
Colours blurring in your face, now the light is gone
All the sheep are ruled by wolves,
And torn apart by dogs
So you turn to God
In a world that’s torn apart by gods
You can’t understand the pain,
Only loneliness remains, now that she is gone
I can’t tell you what to say,
All this hell I have to pay, just keep moving on
Misery is me today
They say time, it doesn’t wait, well it seems to take so long
In my head I see your place,
Vague, sweet memories I hate, because they’re almost gone
All the sheep are ruled by wolves,
And torn apart by dogs
So you turn to God
In a world that’s torn apart by gods
You can’t understand the pain,
Only loneliness remains, now that she is gone
I can’t tell you what to say,
All this hell I have to pay, just keep moving on
Now your shadow slips away
Now your shadow slips away, back where it came from
I can’t tell you I would stay
I can’t say that I would stay, look what I’ve become
I was born to crawl in thorns
Through the shadow of my sins
Lest we burn in hell
For the God that lets the devil win

I could see it on your face
I could read it in the lines,
From the movements in your eyes
I could hear it in your voice
You think you’re such a crooked mind
And you’re not afraid to die
So you threw it all away
For a simple fucking case
Of the daddy don’t love me blues
Ain’t no sunshine in these eyes
Ain’t no sunshine in these eyes
You’re a junkie, so am I
My mother was a witch
She was burnt alive
Little bitch, I still hear her cry
So you threw me all away
For a very simple case
Of the daddy don’t love me blues
My old man wonders where I’m at,
And they keep trying to take me back
No one’s home inside my head
No one’s home inside my head
No one’s home inside my head
When we met you were just fine
Now all you do is cry,
Let the demons sooth your mind

Vulture
06:36

In the desert, we’ll drive until we’re through
I have to know babe, do you feel the way I do
No direction, and the vulture grips his cane
I hate reflections, it’s as if this were a game
Can the devil see me yet
With the tapestry of dead
All the vultures in my head
As the darkness seems to spread
Until I’m facing hell
I’m addicted, I’m the sum of all my sins
I just confessed it, don’t need to confess again
No one’s coming, left alone inside my cell
Heaven knows it, heaven knows we’re bound for hell
Say that you would stay,
That you would stay with me
Oh sweet Jesus, I’ll deny you to your face
Thanks to your help, we’re a justified disgrace
Satan met me, he said “son why aren’t you scared?”
And I said “shit man, I dated your daughter for three damn years.”

Falling

Thank you for your time and your hatred
Thank you for dealing with my mind
You know that I know that I need this
Take me home, upstairs, bring me inside
Thank you for messing with my conscience
Thank you for leaving me alive
Take it all, lying scared here
And it ain’t enough to keep me satisfied
Hey I thought we had a deal
Make me feel alive
It's time you bring out all your pipes
Show me how to die
Time we let these demons run
Open up your eyes
Time to live with what I’ve done
Show me how to die
Thank you for the pain and confusion
Thank you for no truth against my lies
You know that I know that I mean this
That without those years, I would not have this life
Nothing in my head seems to sooth me
Suffer in my deepest done mistakes
I’ll carry this cross with me
In the choices I’ve made and the strangest twist of fate
Hey I thought we had a deal
Make me feel alive
Time you bring out all your needles
Make me feel alive
Time we let these demons run
Open up your eyes
Time to live with what I’ve done
Said it’s time to die
And it hurts to set you free
You make me feel alive
But you’ll never follow me
I see it in your eyes
And I’m a child because I lie
I lie cus I’m a child
So I wonder why I get so cold
Each time I see your eyes
Hey I thought we had a deal
Make me feel alive
Time you bring out all your needles
Show me how to die
Time we let these demons burn
Ashes in your eyes
Time to live with what I’ve done
A song for my demise
