If I screwed you on the wall you’d be OK Though you never ever knew me this way And there are pictures on that wall of your favorite place Though I do think you believe me this day You could have it all with that big hallow fang And though the space between these eyebrows could change And when the needs are equal to desire the space is invaded with fire We could not know the difference we’ll play You’re a creature of the earth why don’t you crawl The sky is made for birds hear it in the dirt Creatures of the earth hear what we are Some give up their blood Some are chosen ones Promise truly lies are hard but could be all here alive in dark Bearer of light spirit of air truth is never what you hear Spawn of the abyss make thy presence manifest From the sixth tower comes a sign A messenger of delight You’re a creature of the earth why don’t you crawl The sky is made for birds hear it in the dirt Creatures of the earth hear what we are Some give up their blood Some are chosen ones There are times I open doors Don’t leave the light on To be the one giving angels what they know Just like holy Rome Just like holy Rome Now you could have it all with that big hollow fang But the space between these eyebrows could change And though the needs are equal to desire The space is invaded with fire We could not know the difference of day You’re a creature of the earth why don’t you crawl The sky is made for birds hear it in the dirt Creatures of the earth hear what we are Some give up their blood Some are chosen ones

Once you check these eyes they’ll see nothing of what you want them to A sad surprise paid for something only to return Whatever happened to pride Said you wanted some open up for me This house is a lie and will break apart you I’ll show you the ocean come on Tides weeping Assembly of first born Hey kid you will haunt me I know and that’s over Believe me and try You trick the old and the wise They need something and you want everything No compromise some need power and others take the blame You’ve said your goodbyes to a place where mothers can retain a little bit high And will break apart you I’ll show you the ocean come on Tides weeping Assembly of first born Hey kid you will haunt me I know and that’s over Believe me and try

Next to us a universe Parallel with everything all at once When diamonds are an easy find Be sure you’re in the right state of mind I know running inside the walls will lead us into a big kind of door I know were headed for a black hole to meet our favorite soul Thousands are like you my friend And senses are everywhere but in between A heartbeats the side of yours Never knowing that which exists because I know running inside the walls will lead us into a big kind of door I know were headed for a black hole to meet our favorite soul

All that you feel you are We weren’t born to stay Shivers from the cold keep up sane And virgins lie awake Before we become a valley of one Make peace with the sun Feast everyone Before we become a valley of one Make peace with the sun Feast everyone Now don’t forget were the special ones If all would get back to the wall Now get back to the wall with everyone of them All there is to hid is your soul We’re wrecking balls at bay And follow through the ambience today We could go away They’ll remain Before we become a valley of one Make peace with the sun Feast everyone Before we become a valley of one Make peace with the sun Feast everyone Now don’t forget we’re the special ones If all would get back to the wall Son you get back to the wall with everyone of them Now don’t forget we’re the special ones You fall You get back to the wall son You get Back to the wall with everyone of them

We can burn through time it’s not a table we turn And what we plea to each his own let be what will be Well because many times before We were aching from the cure Emotion cures what we need (Anyway you wanna go) Keep this in the back room after dark Secrets are a part of making art Don’t just stand around do what you want We live inside a vacuum after all We live inside a vacuum after all You turn to the darkest corner inside Each and every stone in mind Blocking what the earth is kind Because many times before We were aching from the cure But don’t you know that evil lies and people find that (Anyway you wanna go) Keep this in the back room after dark Secrets are a part of making art Don’t just stand around do what you want We live inside a vacuum after all We live inside a vacuum after all

If you get by forget the place in the back of the line Drive home to the place that you never can find He believes the TV Be sure that you’re after the one At times I get high back where you’re from Sure you could leave it alone But keep the stick warm and back up your bones Piece of mind take a walk with the dark and divine Throw a stone and be the first to pretend to decline She won’t leave her TV Be sure that you’re after the one At times I get high back where you’re from Sure you could leave it alone But keep the stick warm and back up your bones

Free as the atmosphere residing in flowers of fluorine in my skin Colors of burden adhere from within caught in the moment of my sin We are the first to entertain notions that organize their reign Trample like beasts until were slain Ever the bones they lay Expose you to the drug of the day Those who oppose look the other way Assert thee now a place in the hay Swine can then drown in the bay And those who oppose live another day Assert thee now a place in the hay....... When you move there is a light tracing you but all I make out is that you’re followed by a shadow Just what is heard when this blood is awake We’ve got the tools to light a fire Someone soon at the first peak of a noon could be hiding among the sheep that breed desire Oh it takes a heart to let go of a name We’ve got a burn that can never be tame Never take the hand Of the man who makes the plan Oh don’t go on holding on You’ll get X’d where is your head Each every moon is the first stage of a new we get swallowed by a howling over water Yes but it’s the first to be heard at the lake There are but few who where a halo When is it true when everything we must do can be recognized by the boards that hear the sorrow And it’s only the hard that maintain what is fate We’ll be the first to light a fire Never take the hand Of the man who makes the plan Oh don’t go on holding on You’ll get X’d where is your head
