LYRICS


Glistening Metal


In a room locked up by all six sides
Black, dark and gloomy, no where I can hide
Tied on a slab, locked up my hands and feet
Tick tocking slowly, holding a steady beat


(CH)
Glistening metal (Torcher)
Glistening metal (Anger) {4x}
Razor Sharp Metal
Held by ribbons
Falling side to side
Razor Sharp Ribbons
Holding the metal
Falling side to side


The stailness of the air, moist and motionless
Tick-tocking tick-tocking
I heard in the abyss
The hole in the sky where the clouds passed through
Started sweating and bleeding untill I was through


(CH)


Dazed Status


Sittin' in a chair, boring little life
Wonder why I'm here, pondering the knife
External bleeding threatening my ways
Critters crawling up my spin my emotional maze


(CH)
External blunder I'm in a blender
Spinning out of control
External binding such a wonder
Killing my dirty soul


The spirals do grow, they're all hard find
Teasing my senses, tripping my mind
The bonds are made of steal
Encompassing my fate
Growing so frantically
Sensless to erraticate


(CH)x2


My eyes slip closed again,
I watch the shadows move
I feel so damn uncertain just what do I prove
The shapes behind my eyes
are starting to stir
Abussing my sanity, nothing is for sure


Lonely Spider Web


Holding a grudge for so very long can have an effect on the brain
Giant butterflies fluttering freely dancing before
my eyes but they can not see me
Army ants drone on because their life is empty they have no wives no kids and no family
Some say a black widow is nothing like me but I can see why it is lonely


(CH)
A spider spins its web to catch a bumble bee
A spider spins its web like you did you catch me
A spider spins its web to live in harmony
But, you spun your web just to let me free


Washing myself with some soap to wash away all the madness
Some say I'm mad I say I'm ingenious, some say I'm mad then they say I'm lonely
Giant butterflies fluttering freely they are in disguise because they can see me
Morning sickness is imaginary when you're alone anything will make you happy


(CH)


Shout Out Loud


A fire full of corpses is one with soul
A flame is taught to burn
A drop is taught to fool
And, just like in the grave yard
Tombstones line the way
A person buried alive
Or a person told to stay


(CH)
Shout out loud
If you want an answer
Bury all your problems showing you a way
Shout out loud
If you need an answer
Bury all your troubles away


A glowing peice of paper is one with imagination
A pen in taught to write, the mind is taught to teach
And many people out there are people in dispare
They do not see the right way,
They only see what's there


(CH)


If you need an answer just fallow your instincts
Destiny is waiting for you to show
IF you need an answer don't fallow the crown
Fallow what your living mind tell you to show


A man with problems is another mans releif
The man is taught to listen
The man is taught to greive
A listening ear is an ear with a salution
A man with no troubles is a man who speaks his mind


(CH)
(CH)


Dance Freaks


In the past more then the presant
People danced with more intension
People danced with definition
People danced with obligation


Now it's time to redifine
People danced in the time
People that choose it a crime
Peole dancing more divine


Growing like a dancing blob
On the dance floor like a mob
Stirring up a mosh of love
People watching from above


Now that the time has come
Move around and move above
Now is your time to live
Dance around and be creative


The One For Me


For you are the one for me
Why would I deny the truth?
'Cause you are my destiny
I just keep loving you
More and more and more
I love the way you walk
And I love the way that you move
I also love the way that you talk
I just can't get enough of you


(CH)
My love----
Will travel around the world for you
My love----
Will travel across the universe


For you are the girl I love
Beuatiful in every way
And my love is the love that you shoved
Out into the brightness of day


(bridge)
When I'm asleep
Your love travels around me
When I'm asleep
Your touch comes to wake me up


But when I wake up it's all just memories
And I think to myself when will I tell you the truth?
(The truth about my love)


We met in the dark
Your hair glowed in the moonlight
We stayed up all night
Just to watch the sun rise


(CH)
(Bridge)


You are the girl of my dreams


The Haunting of a Sleepless Night


Breathing new life into corpses of fire
A place that's so cold yet you sit and perspire
Pictures on the mantel are staring you down
While the shadows on the wall are holding their ground
Creaking and dripping and howling at night
The house is a wonder and an all out delight
Cob webs are hanging and pushed by the gohsts
That haunt this house and love it the most


(CH)
Pushing shoving Fighting Biting
I think it's alive
Leaking bleeding dead man sleeping
Dead man sleeping
On this lonely night


Cyoties howl and claim their spots
While modern day phantasms are spooking the lots
Was that the wind, or something unseen?
Or maybe it was nothing,
Don't believe me.


(CH)


Solitary


I can see that I am blind
This is my payback for being kind
I can see that no one is around me
With my enemies colaborating


I can see that nobody cares about me
Even when I cry
Nobody cares for me
Even if I died
Nobody would cry for me
And if I lived
All shame is brought upon me
That is if I lived


(CH)
I'm bleeding
I'm bleeding
I feel the life draining
Stop me
From breathing
I feel my life sofocating


I can feel I'm paralized
I was in to deep before I realized
I can feel that no one is around me
They are traiders colaborating


I can feel that nobody cares about me
Even when I climb to fall
Nobody cares for me
When I put my fists right through a wall
Nobody cares for me
When I drag the corpses through the hall
Still nobody cares for me
Nobody cares for me at all


(CH)


I'm bleeding
I'm bleeding
My life lines recieding
Stop me from breathing
Or I'll kill you all

 


Ritual Dungeon


Hmmmm...


Bats and candles burning insence
Freeing all from their prisons
Boys and girls of every age
Are trembling in their cages


(CH1)
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo


Are ee aye ee um be aye ee are ee um be aye
Are ee aye ee um be aye ee are ee um be aye


(CH)
Cheat on death
I'm alright
Temporarily under tonight
Contemplating what will become of all that I see


Bats and wolves come out at night
Reaking Havoc with delight
Trembling all in despair
Levitating in the air


(CH1)
(CH)

My Night


Sitting all alone
On top of a hill
Trying to feel the wind tonight
The gusts are silent
And do not blow
I wonder if without wind I could fly


The trees stand still
In the water no ripples move
I'm sitting on the hill
I'm sitting on a groove
The clouds do not aproach
They stay just where they are
And up on the hill
I see a moving star


Stand all alone
On top of a cliff
The water deep below is silent tonight
A star in the distance
Is calling out for me
But, what would happen if I fallowed
Why don't we see?


The grass stands still
By the pond is no life
I'm standing on that cliff
All alone tonight
The stars becon me
To come along with them
Should I wait till morning or,
Should I go with them?


Leap or die?
Die or leap?
Which should I do?
Which should I seek?
Beware of the moonlight
It may turn your love
Into something inconceivable
To the ones above


The clouds lay dormant
By the forest are no trees
I'm falling off that cliff
I'm falling to my knees
The water waits below
The currents take away
All the pain and suffering
The world went through today


Why?
Why?
Why?
Why?
Why?
Why?


Why arn't you to come along to my universe with me?
Why arn't you to reason to me about sanity?
I know just where I'm going.
I know just where I've been!
I you can only open up and come with me my friend.


Wrapped in Ribbons


According to the land
According to the sea
Something can be everything that anything could be
According to the sky
According to the fire
Our success is information we must accuire


(You know that I know that we grow together
Gentle balance of the univers)


(Bridge)
We're all------
Wrapped in ribbons
Gental balence of time and space
We're all------
Wrapped in ribbons
The trees and the sky and the human race


(CH)
We're all------ wrapped in ribbons
We're all------ tied together


According to the sky
According to the land
Everything is equalized with your hand
According to the fire
According to the sea
Anything and everything is balanced equally


(Bridge)
(CH)


(CH repeatedly)
