Screaming Crows

Save you from your enemies
it's as if everything's gone dry
To be fading in this world means
nothing as it all goes by
Walking out
in the cold damp night
with the light
burning in your eyes
Screaming crows
fly away fom you
and their wings
make the strangest noise
as the night turns bright
Hostile
towards
all this
non sense
Tippitoing 'round the bends
just for your sake
Bright red light
through the crackling sky
and you know
that your time has come
You look up
but they're all gone now
leave a mark
so they know you were here
and you know you were there
Inside I know
It's my head
In this motion/notion
I will break you
off me
stay off don't you come back

Wasting precious
time on trying to impress you
Sad is this waste
how indifferent can a person be?
Fire is put out
Joy is drowned and hope is flushed
away forever
No more contact
Tell me I'm
okay and
that I have your
respect
Why is it that
everything
that I do
is so wrong?
I'm the same
flesh & blood
as you are
Are we one?
Talking about me
behind my back
It compares to a stab
Pointless gestures
Trying to be nice
and what do
I get
Something
The jaws of life
I get
Nothing
But the feeling of my
worthlessness
No more acting
Everything is fine and dandy
just as long as I don't speak
my mind
This won't ever change I know
Let me go

Blue Tin Foil
02:24
|
|||
I should tie you up in ribbon
Like a gift from my muse
I should wrap you in blue tin foil
We will lift this burden

Tie Myself In Chains
04:58
|
|||
Bits of despair are flushing down the drain
into rivers of good luck and hope
could it be
this place has changed its
face and now wants me to
be a part of the fun
Have looked around and I have yet to see
what I missed but maybe this is it
could it be
my luck has turned for
once and I am part of
life itself and its fun
I should tie myself in chains
but oh my word is the savoir
I should put myself in search
of truth but it is way off in the distance

Erasing
03:15
|
|||
You took my self esteem
and trew it down the
waste bin along with my pride
Would you let me keep
my thoughts to myself no
nothing was sacred
back then
M-M-O
I took your blow
I'm rising from ashes
M-M-O
I took your blow
Erasing - you are?
How come you're still alive
you're not loved
by anyone
You fail to deserve
anything
This is my final word
my enemy
be gone
gone for good
out of my life now

180
pounds of pure evil
Viscious intensions
filthy agenda
Are you the devil?
Or just a lost soul?
Nothing relieves you of
my hate towards you
You had me at "hallo"
for me much needed
one touch one night
But soon the fear began
I was too weak and
you had acting skills
academy award
I tried to give you all
the best of me
and much beyond
Egoistic face
your heart is frozen
and mine almost died
because of you
So much
darkness
for so long
Never before Have I
Been fooled
into
Believing a fiend
just wishing
for craving my life
This is
evidence
Just for myself
I got out of the fire
Shoo
Devil
Be gone for good and
let me forget your face

Just Indulge
04:44
|
|||
Comb your hair
and follow
me into the
light sweetheart
Let us have some past time
Not much light but we're
alright
We should just indulge in
all the wickedness in here
Can you guess
what my game is?
Look outside there's no
sunshine
We share the flesh
and we like it
for reasons that
Will not concern
any other than us
Check the stamp
Play ball
and call
my name
it is all in vain
Waste my trust just
free me with you

Mélancholie
04:43
|
|||
Trey of
burned out old smokes
I'll stay
Here in
My own
nostalgic fit
always
no way
Out of
melancoly
this time
proves to
be of
significance
to me
re-membering
Those who
have crossed my path
and filled
me with joy
I will
watch myself go
back to
those days
When I
ran all around
blissful
Nothing
Could bring
rain on my parade
Most days
Were just
Something to
treassure for dark times
like now
useful
Tools I
work with to bring my
joy back
memories

So Out Of Place
02:56
|
|||
Down here I'm looking up
up on all that is real
I don't know what to do
with my life
Inside I'm safe with me
Feeling evil ever
stronger and more fierce
Is this task for me?
Funny how it seems to me
thing are not how they should
be my life, be my soul
I'm my savior
How can it be
I'm so out of place
traps, death, blow
all over
Will I have to go through
obsticles
with my head intact
and alive
Will I have to
go through hell alone
and face my self
in the depth
Could you please help me
just a bit when the time is closing in on me?

Coward and a Star
05:40
|
|||
When I call you
up I know you
won't be where
I had hoped
to find you but then
I just cry and shout at
myself for being weak
It is a problem solver
everytime
...Except when I feel
stronger I lash at you
for being
a coward and a star
Star star in your own
show a show with viewers
who're just as fake
and shallow as you are
Make it just make it
Fly off and be the sole
one to see art as it
should be cor...
rect me if
I'm wrong and you're right
You told me and you are the star
Star star in your own show
A show with viewers
Who are just as fake
and shallow as you are
I am struggeling not with the
possibilities no but
limits it's more like
hell and guess who
brought it up
And made my love into a
hate more spiteful than anything
I've ever come to fight with in my life
I will accept
All your dirty
ways but I
Know you'll someday be
Headless!
I shall welcome
you into my
home but I
Tell you
you will have to
Behave!
Every time I
think of opening
my door
You throw a bucket of
s... my way!
I am clean now
You are dirty
cowardly don't you
ever just feel bad?

Wreck and Drive
05:30
|
|||
Cut cut cut them up
into little bitties
makes for a good show
blood is getting nearer
Waste waste waste of flesh
I am not allowed to
line them up a window
Feasting on their eyes
and their
Hair hands legs knees
Every juicy part of them
is going into
my recollection
Same blood must mean sin
but it is intriguing
to mess around with
moral deprevation
Although I suffer
Make it go away
I will eat them with my eyes
Pretty and guiltless
Makes it all the more
fun for me
to wreck and drive
my hurt away with
their agendas
not even known to them
Pick trick sick I am
thinking thoughts like these
but I like what I see and
I can almost taste them
My mind is a mess
ethics dead and gone now
All that is left is
urge for fear and madness
Save safe save yourself
before I get closer
How come you're smiling?
Oh you know I'm bluffing
|

Presence of Nonsense
04:02
|
|||
In your presence of nonsense
pointless remarks
and attemps to be funny
I call your bluff
Your stare is flickering
and oh so nervous but
here's that absurd
humour again to watch your back
Ignorance is bliss I guess
Stick to it stick to it
A brotherhood of laugh and cheer
Look within all the way
|

Poison Drink
06:57
|
|||
You think that my life
is empty just
because I don't fill
up my body
with the poison drink
You're wasting your life
while mocking and
rediculing
we the introvert
have the edge
We can see through you and
rejoice that we are not like
you are
so depraved and empty
Still you're able to bring
doubt to my mind and
make me wonder
but not for long
It's not that I hate you
you're just so pointless
in your dead end ways
and I am not among you
When I love to wonder
you make assumptions made
from nothing but your silly
prejudice and fears
Bringing you knowledge
I condemn what it is you
do and breathe for
just flee from my sight
Will you please
leave me be and
just swallow through
just swallow through
Waste your mind
I know
You have faded
youself into
A big vast wasteland
Are you waiting
for bliss
Play your cards right
And you know you will
Find your saviour in time
to escape the flames
ride the wave, ride!
Watch your back cause
everyone is about to see
what it is that you do
when you
lose control, check
Your pulse is off
place yourself in a
casket and make sure that it's
sealed real tight
Break away!
