Turning To Dust

I’m turning to dust
Burning up
I’m turning to dust
Breaking down
I’m turning to dust
Back inside
I’m turning to dust
Loosing ground

And I’m waiting for the changes
It’s choking me up
I’m draining
It’s turning me to dust

I’m turning to dust
Sinking in
I’m turning to dust
Killing time
I’m turning to dust
Dead inside
I’m turning to dust
Loosing ground

And I’m waiting for the changes
It’s choking me up
I’m draining
It’s turning me to dust

Swallowing a bitter pill
Feel the shame
You’re welcome to it
Sinking in
Watching
I can make this go

And I’m waiting for the changes
And it’s choking me up
Without you, is turning me to dust

It’s still the same routine
My forty days of desert
Abandon everything
I just faded away
I found myself alone
Though self condemned I know this
My sentence, to dust

In the Dollhouse

It’s the day for change
I’ll begin again
Time to take the poison
But that’s alright cause I’m done with the blame
This again, I’m ready
Same routine, but only
Bigger still, a monster
But that’s fine, cause I’m set like a bomb

I’m back here again about to descend
Back in the chicane
I’m shedding the doubt
I’m willing it down
I’m playing the game
In the doll house

Burning ground
Pedal down
Now I’m loaded and I’m ready to go
Time to move
Face the poison
It’s the one with the cracked up smile
This again, I’m ready
Same routine, but only
Bigger still, a monster
But that’s fine, cause I’m set like a bomb

I’m back here again about to descend
Back in the chicane
I’m shedding the doubt
I’m willing it down
I’m playing the game
In the doll house

I took it upon me
Now I’m set like a bomb

I’m back here again about to descend
Back in the chicane
I’m shedding the doubt
I’m willing it down
I’m playing the game
In the doll house

Cause I’m set like a bomb
Like a bomb
Yeah, I’m set like a bomb

Femme Fatale

I, I came to get away
I thought I took control
I know I made it to your door
Now as I adjust to the light
She’s lying by my side
Last night comes crashing into sight

How
She Had me wrapped around her fingers
And got me ready to roll
I couldn’t help it
Yeah, she moves so good
She’s really got me begging for more

Oh, she’s got it all
She’s going on
What could I say
Oh, her sucker dolls
Her willing slaves
But thats ok

Check it
She’s the queen of the night
She knows her prey man
She’s a viper to the vein
Go
How could I walk away
She’s everything
I’ll be her willing victim here again

Roll, she’s got the devil in her pocket
I couldn’t do it I know, no, no
I couldn’t help it
Yeah, she moves so good
She’s really got me begging for more

Oh, she’s got it all
She’s going on
What could I say
Oh, her sucker dolls
Her willing slaves
But thats ok
Check it

Oh, she’s got the devil in her pocket
She’s got me begging for more
I couldn’t help it
Yeah, she moves so good
She’s really got me ready to roll

Oh, she’s got it all
She’s going on
What could I say
Oh, her sucker dolls
Her willing slaves
But thats ok
I couldn’t do it I know, no, no
Oh, she’s got it all
She’s going on
What could I say
Oh, her sucker dolls
Her willing slaves
But thats ok
I couldn’t do it I know, no, no, no

Until She Comes

She says she’s like that alien sex fiend, without that part about the alien
She shows me round her tattoos and her piercings
And tells me there’s some more that I should know

Confesses she’s crazy
Some people find her scary
That’s all I need
That’s enough for me
Let’s take this over to me place
It’s real close, just across the street

Now she’s on the bed smoking cigarettes
As she sips her wine, how she looks divine
As the day arrive, I’m between her thighs and she tells me
That I just cant go from here and then she comes

She’s on repeat, I could see she’s insatiable
Cant get enough of this lovin’ so just keep it coming
The second round, down. Breath is shallow. Back is hollowed out
Her fingers sliding, nails are tracing lines on my back

She moves her position, and whispers while twisting
That’s what I need, that’s what works for me
Let’s make this one in a million.
The night’s young, you don’t need to leave

So now she’s on the bed smoking cigarettes
As she sips her wine how she looks divine
As the day arrive, I’m between her thighs and she tells me
That I just cant go from here

And then she comes again
I should go, it’s late. I just don’t wanna
Oh, I know I should be leaving, but it’s hard to depart from her
Because she

She’s on the bed smoking cigarettes
As she, she moves so fine
As it gets bright outside I’m between her thighs
And she tells me that I just cant go from here
Until she comes
Until she comes
Until she comes
Until she comes

Heroes (When the Night Slides In)

Pale skin
Smell human
Brother wolf and his sister the moon
New lambs to the slaughter
Strange fruit that you couldn’t refuse
Wake up
You think we’re make believe
Wake up
Some thinks you need to see, and it is real

We’re slaves to the day
But hero’s when the night slides in

Lights on
Blood pumping
Through your body like a beacon until
Cold sweat. Salvation
Broken promises to lead you astray
Wake up
You think we’re make believe
Wake up
Some thinks you need to see, and it is real

We’re slaves to the day
But hero’s when the night slides in
We’re slaves to the day
But hero’s when the night slides
When the night slides in
When the night slides in

Enough

How, how could I know
Cause it seemed good… well, good enough
To satisfy
Your desire would slowly change as it all goes wrong

And so my friend, this ends here
I’ve taken enough

Listen to yourself
Can you believe that it could help to criticise
My desire would slowly change as it all goes wrong

And so my friend, it ends here
I’ve taken enough
I’ll say it again. It ends here
I’ve taken enough
Enough

I cant help you
I made my confession the minute I met you

I’ll say it again. This ends here
I’ve taken enough
Enough
Time to stop. This ends here
I’ve taken enough
I’ve taken enough
Yeah enough

Let it go

The End of the World

Please stop
Stop this doll show
You keep talking
Talking for me
Please stop
I’m eager to share blame
I keep talking, but no body here could care

You call her to see if she could give a damn
You just can’t believe we’d end this way

But I should just face it
It’s too late
It’s the end of the world
You failed her
It’s the end of your world
You had it all
Now see it fall

No sleep, dark room
I just lie alone here
Making sense from mayhem
As the story unwinds

You call me to see if I still gave a damn
I just can’t believe we’d go this way

And I should just face it
It’s too late
It’s the end of the world
You failed her
It’s the end of your world
We had it all
Now see it

It’s over and done
The future unfolds with no one to blame except me
It’s over and done
We’re beyond console
But nothing to save

Save it
It’s too late
It’s the end of the world
You failed us
It’s the end of your world
You had it all
It’s the end of your world
You could find me ever silent
It’s the end of the world.
Hope is final
Hold you
Blame you.
It’s the end of the world
You could find me ever silent
It’s the end of the world
Hope is final
Hold you
Blame you
It’s the end of the world

The end of everything
The end of everything
It’s the end of your world
The end of everything
The end of everything

Bullet

You cant believe I could pull the trigger
No subtle warnings
You can’t defend
This sudden feeling is hard to swallow
The cold steel in the palm of my hand
No surprise
I can’t help how I’m wired
Reasons why I ease off the controls
Same excuse that I use every time
Just before it all goes

Bang
Shoot fast
Think slow
Rewind, but now the bullet’s in flight
Knockdown
I’m wrong again

I cant believe I could pull the trigger
No subtle warnings
I can’t defend
This sudden feeling
It’s hard to swallow
The cold steel in the palm of my hand
No surprise
I can’t help how I’m wired
Reasons why I ease off the controls
Same excuse that I use every time
Just before it all goes

Bang
Shoot fast
Think slow
Rewind, but now the bullet’s in flight
Knockdown
I’m wrong again
Bang
Shoot fast
Think slow
Sink in, but now the bullet’s in flight
Knocked down
I’m wrong again
To catch a bullet
Bang
Shoot fast
Think slow
Sink in, cant catch a bullet in flight
Knocked down
I’m wrong again

Can’t bring the bullets back

Exit Wound

I can never get clear from all the sins I own
But I have atoned, and then some
You cannot forget to slip in
All was wrong and not forgiven
Closed tight inside you

I’m leaving in chains for the crimes I’ve done
Though I’ve made amends, you still bear my exit wounds

I can never get clear
I’ve carried my sentence so long, I’ve repented it all… and then some

I’m leaving in chains for the crimes I’ve done
Though I’ve made amends, you still bear my exit wounds

I could say this I know
Let me try to atone

I’m leaving in chains for the sins I’ve done
And you’ve been condemned, to still bear my exit wounds
Save it
Leaving my exit wound
Save it
Trying to choke the pain away

King Of Nothing

Call, it’s a roll of the dice that I’m taking
Hit me with a choice and I’ll run with it all
I’ll take it

Gone, disappear like a thief with a fortune
Shut down, but I’m taking the hit with a grin

So now I’m the king of nothing
Got no money, yeah I’m lucky
I’m the king of nothing
Shackle gone, man I’m loaded with nothing at all

Call, it’s a roll of the dice that I’m taking
Hit me with a choice & I’ll run with it all

Because I’m the king of nothing
Got no money, man I’m lucky
I’m a king of nothing
Shackle gone, man I’m loaded with nothing at all
I’m a king of nothing
I’m a king of nothing
I’m a king of nothing
I’m a king, with nothing at all

When the dust clears, I’m gone
I got nothing, but road

I’m the king of nothing
I’m the king of nothing
I’m a king of nothing
I’m a king, man I’m loaded
I’m a king, with nothing
I’m a king with nothing
I’m a king with nothing
I’m a king, of nothing at all
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
Nothing at all, no
I’m the king

Rise of the Reptile King

They filled the seats as they climbed the trapeze to the top
And pretty daisy how she drove them all crazy, and there was
Jack Wall, he’s the human cannon ball

Then Mr. Pickle, Such a performer
He throws knives at his spinning bride
And then

Lights out, Shows on
It’s a killer
No one believes what they see
Main man kicks in
And steals the freak show
Bringing the crowd to their feet
It’s the rise of the reptile king

He gives them chills as he takes Mrs Beal to the spot
They grow uneasy as whispers something
Then she walks out
And when she’s gone, he just carries on

Poor Mr. Pickle. Such a performer
He threw knives at his spinning bride
Until

Lights out! Shows on
He’s a killer
No one believes what they see
Main man kicks in
And steals the freak show
Bringing the crowd to their feet
It’s the rise of the reptile

There’s something wrong with the King. Inside

Lights out! Shows on
He’s a killer
No one believes what they see
Main man kicks in
And steals the freak show
Bringing the crowd to their feet
He’s the start of the show
And it’s a killer
No one believes what they see
And he’s the star of the show
And he’s a killer
Bringing the crowd to their feet
It’s the rise of the reptile king

Misplaced

Caught by the change
Memories decay
No signs of life
A life I’ve mislaid

Keep telling myself I know this
To see if I can still recall
The man that I was when this started
And try to find the life that I misplaced

Caught by the change
Memories decay
No signs of life
The life I’ve mislaid

Passing myself I noticed
See if I can still recall
The man that I was when this started
Tries to find the life that I misplaced

From the Sea

The coming sunlight meets the chill
Scent of jasmine lingers still
Dry earth & east wind brought her to me
An ocean of desert brought her

From the sea
Carried
By the sea
She came

The driest season
Bleached sands
Drought
The waves of desert brought her

From the sea
Carried
From the sea
She came

From the sea
Carried
By the sea
She came
From the sea
My love
By the sea
She came to me

She Is

You’ve seen the change in my circuitry
As my weakness for her seals my decline
I’m blind to face up to some common sense
Cause she’s taken over all of my time
It’s a shame
An illusion
Just a game I never knew that I played

But oh, that’s the way she is
Oh, that’s just how I am bound to the way she is
She is

I try to breath and I turn to reason
But she’s taken over, I’m wasting my time
It’s a shame
An illusion
Just a game I never knew that I played

Oh, that’s the way she is
Oh, that’s just how I am bound to the way she is
She is

Roll up, roll up to the big top
Watch the animal beg for her
A game to play, but I didn’t know

Oh, it’s the way she is
It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter
She is vengeance, she is flawless
We understand. Nothing can save this
She is cruelty, she is flawless
We understand. Nothing can save this
She is vengeance, she is flawless
We understand. Nothing can change her
She is vengeance, she is child like
We understand. Nothing would change her
