It's never been like this
It's never been like this, no I've never felt like this before And it was just around sunrise when you crept out the door Left me ragged and worn but left me, Left me wanting more, more, more Let's do this all again Let's do this all again Let's do it all again Let's do this all again, do it all again sometime Sometime And do you remember Paris in the rain? And it looks just like Christmas But that's come and gone again And the wild cats roaming in among the tombs and graves And the flickering white neon of the cross and "Jesus Saves" And the headlights like fires and the crowds in the streets Children dressed in rags begging at our feet And we crawled back to our room With our heads spinning 'round And we just lay in the dark And didn't dare make a sound And a sorrow soft as whispers stole into our hearts Lay down between us and pushed us apart And do you remember the silence scorched with pain? A burning regret, let's never do this again Again Let's never do this again |

Some crazy holy roller trying to sell you Jesus
Trying to sell you helter skelter He sells you genocide, he sells you kingdom come Now watch the little piggies run for shelter Cease to exist, just come and say you love me Welcome to the family, meet Sadie and Gypsy They'll creepy crawly under your skin And every time a bell tolls, and you've blood on your hands An angel, an angel gets her wings Cease to exist, just come and say you love me And you had Jesus until I came along So come and join this freak show of mine There's a place for you with use, a place for you in Heaven All that glitters is not gold, in Heaven Even you may shine He preaches revelation, chapter and verse And all dead swine grow up a sacred cow Too many Christ's and never enough crosses Who shall we crucify now? Cease to exist, just come and say you love me Shine on |

It was the word from Milo, A word to the wise
That set me straight about your cheating and your lies Set down between us like the bottle that we shared He had to tell me because no else dared I'm so disappointed I'm so very, very let down You can have the bed and the stains on the sheets I'll sleep on the floor, I can't bear you deceit You gave yourself away for the sake of a thrill And for the price of my conceit, you were a steal I'm so devastated I'm so very, very let down You leave a trail of scarlet like footsteps in the snow You leave a trail of scarlet everywhere you go and I'm The last to know And isn't it just like you to shake the faith in me I gave you all I have to give but I couldn't give you all you need And something that had died was all we had to lose And the worst thing I ever did to you was to ask you to choose I'm so very lonely I'm so very, very let down You leave a trail of scarlet like footsteps in the snow You leave a trail of scarlet everywhere you go and I'm The last to know |

Save me, save me, save me from the spider, begs the fly
I'm caught in her web and she's bleeding me dry She wears her seduction like the bride wears her veil She promised me Heaven but all she gives me is Hell Oh no, no she's pulling me under She's dragging me down, tearing me asunder I'm sweating hot steel bullets, my mouth is bone dry My heart beats too fast,can't catch my breath The spider the spider traps the fly She dresses in white but her heart's as black as sin Her legs are wrapped around me feel her crawl across my skin As she sucks the life outta me. I can't fly anymore And I shiver and I shudder and surrender to the whore Oh no, no, no, no, no she's dragging me under She's pulling me down, tearing me asunder I'm sweating hot steel bullets, my mouth, my mouth is bone dry My heart beats too fast, can't catch my breath, The spider, the spider's trapped the fly |

I've been too drunk to love
Too drunk to care I've looked like death, felt like hell Been the worse for wear I've been drinking too much to remember The hell of the night before I've been drinking myself blind And still I'll drink some more She is the wine that makes harps and choirs The sweetest sound that the grapevine brings She is the wine that makes gods and angels And when I drink of her, she conjures me wings She invites me to her banquets And I feast on her bouquet She chases the dragons, and, Drives the demon away She builds a rainbow bridge To the island of the blessed She leads me to surrender To the quarry of my quest She is the temptress The master magician A sister to eros She is exhibition She plays like a symphony Smells like sympathy Tastes like poetry Gives her very soul to me |

I know I am a legend 'cause I've seen my name
Slandered on a dirty subway wall Sticks and stones may break my bones but names don't hurt Names can't hurt me at all You can crucify me I will rise again You can crucify me I will stand alone You bask in the light that pours from me But that's just the way the world is mine That's just the way all stars must shine Assassination by vitriol and your quill is a loaded gun Your finger on the trigger baby, trigger baby, trigger baby But your dumb dumb bullets, dumb dumb bullets Can never hurt anyone |

I'm not scared anymore
I'm not scared of the dark when I sleep with you And I'm feeling alive And I'm feeling strong again when I'm with you And it hits me Just like a runaway train And it blows me away Just like a hurricane You can make me happy and I hope you feel the same You make me feel just like a child, a child again I'm not trapped anymore Between madonna and the whore when I lay with you And the days run away Like wild horses run away when I'm with you And I'm breathing you in Just like the morning air And I'm wrapping you around Just like a skin to wear Oh sweet thing I'm born once again For you sweet thing Just like a baby again You make me happy and I hope you feel the same And I'm in heaven and it feels like a gentle rain You make me happy and I want you to feel the same You make me feel just like a child A child again |

I never knew how much you could mean to me
Until the moment you saw how untrue I could be I never meant to cause you sorrow Never meant to cause you any pain But with all the best intentions I can't promise I won't do it again I don't know what it is that drives me to make me want to throw it all away 'Cause you're really very precious, and I do so dearly want you to say It gets harder all the time, to be away from you And I want to work it out, so you can grow to trust me too Like I trust you Time is not the healer, I was hoping he would be And I'm still tender and bruised, but I want you to touch me 'Cause there's a healing in your touch And you're the one I need to be with I want to give myself to you, give you all I have to give You make me live You make me breathe You make me breathe |

From one Jesus to another napalm can be a treat
Religion is only cold comfort 'cos Judas Iscariot was a cheat Bullet holes in my mirror and a minefield across my floor I don't want to be a soldier, don't want to fight someone else's war I don't need no Hare Krishna I don't need no primal scream I don't need no mantra chant I don't need no self esteem I'll take to bed John the Walrus 'cause my Baudelaire has been pawned Plagued by demons, deceived by angels What little devils have we spawned? And Buddha sits on my shelf shooting up Edgar Allan Poe And I'll dream in 'Forbidden Colours' just like Vincent van Gogh I don't need no suit of armour I don't need no sword and shield I don't need no immortality I don't need no Elysian fields I don't need no lollipops or rainbows I don't need no hare of the hound I don't want to be mummy or daddy I don't need no duty bound It's bedlam just like Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse causes a scandal Kahil Gibran was a junkyard and Genghis Khan was a vandal And I fell in love with Marilyn Monroe and Then Kennedy told me she'd died And anyway, if it came to a choice, I'd take Mata Hari for my bride I don't need no religion or faith I don't need no collusion I don't need no spiritual healing I don't need no selfdelusion And Jesus walks on water But does he ever walk on air? I'm getting lost again, mummy, scared again, daddy And the beauty of it all is I no longer care. |

Buried deep, buried deep inside
The hurting and the pain I've got to hide It's cold and it's dark and it's raining outside Never another sunset until there's another Another sunrising up Like a mountain from the sea Against the pain The walls I build, the bridges I burn So I'll never get hurt again It's cold and it's dark and I'm feeling numb Never another sunrise until there's another Another healing time come Hiding away in my ivory tower, my fortress, my sanctuary Until the healing comes, quiet and sure, like a mistress visiting me It's cold and it's lonely but there's a light shining in my eyes There's another sunset until there's another Until there's another sunrise |
