1.
Our hearts align Under the blackened sky I will make you mine It's but a question of time You're nothing but trouble Hardly worth the triffle But I can't turn around So let's make this count Your hand in mine Stained by cum and wine It's flashing in my eyes Time after time A woman's love so cruel Divine, unbearable But there's no turning back The world around me turns to black Alone in the night I'm lost from the light One kiss for the fall The end of it all While under the stars I'm giving you up You're breaking my heart 'til life do us part
2.
Everything I touch I end up breaking For every soul I mend, mine remains aching There's not a heart, not a soul Not a single fish in my bowl As I break I suggest you all to 'lo and behold Like flies the weaklings and traitors surround me these are the ones responsible for my agony I'm not to blame, I cannot be Everyone is out to get me A you walk away, I'm telling you Don't you dare to ignore me Now that all the cowards have bailed out on me I've only got myself around left for me to blame As I take a look in the mirror The reflection keeps on getting clearer How can fate be so cruel that The king's become a common fool With a hole in my heart I'm alone in the dark Nothing let for me to keep holding on Hold my hand while I'm falling apart Take the pieces as reminders of dawn Tear Me To Shreds
3.
I can feel your breath, cold as ice I can feel your skin, taste of your thighs You set me on fire, make me high You're what I desire, babt, I could die I can't get enough, it's my only vice I can see you look right into my eyes Flames keep going higher and higher I'm a willing slave to your heart of fire Can you feel it Can you feel the blood flow It is searing, but I can't let you go We've only got time left for tonight There are still hours left 'til sunrise
4.
We must play our lives like soldiers in the field The life is short, I'm running faster all the time Strength and beauty destined to decay So cut the rose in full bloom Everyday through all frustration and despair Love and hate fight with burning hearts 'Til legends live and man is god again And self-preservation rules the day no more We must dream of promised lands and fields That never dade in season As we move towads no end, we learn to die Red tears are shed to gray 'Til the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood 'Til the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood
5.
Downfall 04:36
Fear and doubt Are blocking my view Moments of love are Growing quite few I'm scared that There will be nothing Left of me and you Everything is covered in mist How can we ever Co-exist When our lives Are in the need of an Exorcist I'm waiting for Some kind of wonder While we're stuck Down six feet under I never wanted To torn you into a Monster Trainwrecks and unnatural Disasters everywhere Are bound to me in this Perpetual nightmare Nothing's like it used to be It feels like I don't even Belong anywhere I have prepared myself for the fall The degeneration of it all I am prepared to heed your call Your fall There's no more tears, I've shed them all There's only silence forevermore Violence inside precedes my fall Downfall
6.
Grown Apart 04:11
Just like a drug-fueled love affair As the effects are starting to wear off The time we've shared ha lost it's flair Everyday is looking worse for wear When they say eyes mirror the soul I'm beginning to realize there's no-one there I remember asking you about Love's currency When you told me to pay my dues Would you like it in cash Or in my bodily fluids Every moment trapped in this place feels like burning, bleeding I can't deny the feeling in my heart That we've simply grown apart Every waking hour without you is yearning, needing my brain is numb and my heart's aready torn made to be broken by love
7.
Mirrors Shouting at my name Cutting on my sking With the sings long since repaid It's like my life Wouldn't even suffice Like I have to try Harder still Then you said That in my head There's nothing left for them to take Don't listen Keep breathing You're safe as long as I'm here Mirrors Show pictures A the time stands still 'cause every breath I take I'm living pat infinity, yet You were the only living soul there Dancing in circles around all my nightmares You were Just my reflection Smiling Bleeding beside me You were Just my reflection Of everything I needed you to be You were You were A reflection Of myself, myself You were You were A reflection Of myself, myself
8.
New Black 03:18
Could've not been older than fifteen years When she swore allegiance to her biggest fears With stars in her eyes and blood on her hands I told her not to cry, now dry your tears From that point on, her heart was racing I could sense her fear, almost taste it Her bloodied hand now held in mine The gullible fool thinks everything's fine Here are your chambers, right this way Just follow me down, down these stairs As we've reached the door, you'll see me to bed Like it or not, the Master does not care Henceforth you are my property Disobey and you've outlived your novelty The Master lives on while extending his sovereignty Like a band of thieves in the cover of night Dark igures come to take your children and wives They're safe with the Master, bathing in his light From beneath his violet banner we shall rise Surrounded by an aura we don't mention out loud Wielding mystic powers that doom and corrupt You will join him or vanish without a trace Violet is the new black of our Master's grace
9.
A woman in robes Bows before me Said "The path to light, I need you to show me" Fine, little girl, I'll oblige you You'll know all my secrets Once the time is due "It's taking too long, I won't be denied! I'll do anything you want if tonight is the night" She would beg and plead Like a helpless child Offer carnal pleasures as if undefiled Take my hand I will be your guide Only I can ever show you What's wrong and right For I have seen The path to light And you are young You will bring him delight This world is doomed By our race diseased There's still hope left for you If you just believed Open your arms Let me take you Before the time is up and your lips turn blue In brightest day In blackest night Your new master will show you the light You'll feel his might like never before Grovel before the violet dawn It's the only way Only path to light Others are false Agents of blight As the Master comes To collect his own We'll finally be immortal Like the jewels of his throne
10.
I have come To claim what's mine There's nothing to fear If you just comply Come, my child, nice and easy You know your place right here beside me The time has come to have my price Smell your hair, feel your thighs I can see the wrath in your eyes It looks so cold, but feels of fire Tell me your secrets, your darkest desires I can make it happen to appease your ire We could be like the tales of old If you shut your mouth, and do as you're told Everything I said may have been a lie But try to leave, and you will die Out of all things that go bump in the night I've got nothing to fear, nothing to hide 'cause when I'm all alone in the endless dark My devils arrive to give me my mark It's what I've earned after crossing the line No turning back now, you will be mine There's no escape, no place to hide The Master beckons, and you will abide. ut of all things that go bump in the night I've got nothing to fear, nothing to hide 'cause when I'm all alone in the endless dark My devils arrive to give me my mark It's what I've earned after crossing the line No turning back now, you will be mine In the depths of night, in the deepest dark You too shall bear the Devil's mark
