Eighteen Visions

I know you can move in that black velvet. yeah.
so move for me in that velvet dress.
the sweet taste you'll leave on me.
tainted with that kiss.
bite your lip.
brace yourself.
my hopes have turned into desperation.
please get undressed and lay beside me.
before my cold, cruel world comes to an end.
wasted by the sight of you.
it's all for nothing.
wasted by the sound of your voice,
but she said something.
I heard her scream.
today wont see tomorrow.
kiss it goodbye.
suffering with the shadows of her cold embrace.


my neck snaps at the sound, at the sight my eyes bleed.
trapped in my gloom.
with my head in my hands.
trapped in my gloom. yeah.
now my hell is breaking loose.
so move for me in that black velvet baby. yeah.
why don't you follow me home.
that dress needs some action.
taint me sweet with that kiss.

Could you, maybe, stop this from happening?
I know it hurts but you don't have to walk away

I don't know why, I want to stop myself from feeling low
I don't know why, lies know my name and lies I show
I don't know why, I want to stop myself from feeling low
I don't know why, I don't know why I even try

I can't be that way when my life looks this gray so I let go
I let go

I don't know why, I want to stop myself from feeling low
I don't know why, lies know my name and lies I show
I don't know why, I want to stop myself from feeling low
I don't know why, I don't know why I even try

I can't be that way when my life looks this gray so I let go
I let go
I can't be that way when my life looks this gray so I let go
I let go

I've got to leave it alone this time or wallow in my mind
I've got to leave it alone this time or wallow in my mind
I've got to leave it alone, I've got to leave it alone
I've got to leave it alone, I've got to leave it alone

I can't be that way when my life looks this gray so I let go
I let go
I don't understand why clouds sit on my head, it looks like rain
I feel shame

I can't be that way when my life looks this gray so I let go
I let go
I don't understand why clouds sit on my head, it looks like rain
I feel shame

I can't be that way when my life looks this gray so I let go
I let go
I don't understand why clouds sit on my head, it looks like rain

You could ease my pain
You could bring the rain
Yet all these clouds have washed away
So why does my life still seem gray?

You can't save me
You can't save me from yourself

And I should put you in the grave
And I should put you in the grave

These dead flowers aren't in bloom
But still I picked them just for you
You don't mean anything to me yes I say

You can't save me
You can't save me from yourself
You can't save me
You can't save me from yourself

Why did you give up on me when I was young?
Why did you give up on me from the moment I was born?

And I should put you in the grave

You can't save me
You can't save me from yourself

And I'm bleeding from you leaving
You don't mean anything to me, yes I say
And I'm bleeding from you leaving
You don't mean anything to me, yes I say

This time (this time), I am gonna give you all the lovin' you need (this time),
this time, set your heart free, set your love free (this time).

How can I be at ease when I know soon I'll lay my eyes on you,
I close my eyes imagining the moment that my dreams are gonna come true.
The way you wear your hair, the shyness underneath your smile,
the warmth of your embrace is gonna thrill me in just a little while.
I rushed right in before but right now I'm gonna take my time,
every moment we share I'm gonna savor like a vintage wine.

And when you kiss me (I'm gonna taste my lips) I won't let go,
and when you hold my hand, baby I won't say no 'cause...

Ooh baby I want ya, I can't live without ya no way,
I ain't never gonna love this way again,
no time to pretend, no, no, this time,
I'm so glad I've got another chance, mmm, to love you again,
Oh this time.

I can feel you closer to me, closer as the moment comes,
I thank God for another chance to love that very special one. (Thank you.)
Will he return my love I've held on for so many years,
I close my eyes to cry, then I heard you whisper in my ear...

Ooh baby I want ya (oh I want you), I can't live without ya no way (no way),
I ain't never gonna love this way again (no, no),
no time to pretend, no, no, this time (this time),
I'm so glad I've got another chance, mmm, to love you again,
and again, and again, and again.

Ooh this time, I'm gonna give you all the love I me,
set your heart free,
ooh this time it's gonna be forever (forever).
This time, I'm gonna give you all the love you need (all the love you need),
set your love free (set your love free, set your heart free),
ooh this time it's gonna be forever.

Happiness I can't explain, inside I have you just for mine,
I'm kissin' your lips, you're lovin' me,
this phrase keeps runnin' through my mind...

Ooh baby I want ya (oh baby I want ya),
I can't live without ya no way (no way),
I ain't never gonna love this way again (never gonna love this way again),
no time to pretend, no, no, this time (this time),
I'm so glad I've got another chance (got another chance),
mmm, to love you again,
and again, and again, and again.

Ooh this time, I'm gonna give you all the love I me (all the love in me),
set your heart free, baby (set your heart free, set your love free),
oooh, this time.
This time, this time, I'm gonna give you all the love you need
(all the love you need),
set your love free (set your love free, set your heart free),
this time, oh this time, oh this time it's gonna be forever.

Ooh baby I want ya, I can't live without you no way,
I ain't never gonna love this way again,
no time to pretend, no, no, this time,
I'm so glad I've got another chance, mmm, to love you again,
Oh this time.

You told me no apologies, but I'm sorry
It couldn't cut the mustard and it's absurd
Hey, you turned the light off, you gave me darkness
You sucked the blood right out of life

Are you running away from me?
Are you running away from me?
Are you running away from you?
Are you running away from you?

Are you running?
You showed me what I should see, but I'm still blind and I can't breathe
You swallowed pride like someone died
You chewed it up and spit it out but no one's to be found now
Are you running away from me?

Are you running away from you?
Are you running away from you?
Are you running?
Hey, what are you running away from?

You told me what I should see
But I'm still blind and I can't breathe
Are you running away from me?
Are you running away from you?
Are you running away from you?
Are you running? Are you running?

> I watched the falling rain
Splash upon your face
I know those
Aren't your tears
You know it's me
And where I've been
It's just the circumstances
Don't let her down...
So, I should tell you
Why it's so hard to tell you
You know it's me and where I've been
And the million words I'm thinking
I burned my time today
As I start to waste
You were my one and only
And now I don't know why
You know it's me
And where I've been
It's just the circumstances
Don't let her down...
You know it's me
And where I've been
It's just the circumstances
Don't let her down...
And I know what you're feeling tonight
And I know soon everything will be fine
And I know what you're feeling tonight
And I know for now you're...mine...
For now you're...mine...
For now you're...mine...
For now you're mine
I watched the falling rain
Splash upon your face
I know those
Aren't your tears
You know it's me
And where I've been
It's just the circumstances
Don't let her down...
Don't let her down...
Don't let her down...

God help me save tomorrow
From fear of darkest hour
This world in pain
Time to rise again

This life is so called murder
Staring at angry horror
Don't want to live today when all I feel is pain
And I pray that I won't fall apart
(I know this world's the enemy)

You don't know what it's like and I don't think you even care
(I know this world's the enemy)
You don't know what it's like when you've never ever even been there
(I know this world's the enemy)

God help me save tomorrow
From fear of darkest hour
This world in pain
Time to rise again

My life is going under
Staring at angry horror
Don't want to live today when all I feel is pain
And I pray that I won't fall apart
(I know this world's the enemy)

You don't know what it's like and I don't think you even care
(I know this world's the enemy)
You don't know what it's like when you've never ever even been there
(I know this world's the enemy)

This life is so called murder
Staring at angry horror
Don't want to live today when all I feel is pain
(I know this world's the enemy)
(I know this world's the enemy)

I've been sleepin' here for days
Hope I die before my dreams drive me insane
When you're not around I might let my guard down
Don't keep me waiting

You can't understand my nightmares
But bad dreams are all that I can keep

Locked in a room where all my dreams come true
Scrape my mind off of the walls painted pretty blue
Collective thoughts fill my brain but every night it's just the same
Don't keep me waiting

You can't understand my nightmares
Bad dreams are all that I can keep
You can't understand my nightmares
But don't you close your eyes to see
(Blindness is overwhelming)

You can't understand my nightmares
But bad dreams are all that I can keep
You can't understand my nightmares
Don't you close your eyes to see
(Blindness is overwhelming)

I haven't met you lately
I know it's been so long
I haven't seen you lately
I know that you've done wrong

Think time has made you crazy
Your mind is oh so gone
Think time has more than raised me
Don't need you anymore

Shooting your inspiration
Bullets don't feel so good
Turning to desperation
And I always knew you would

Think time has made you crazy
Your mind is oh so gone
Think time has more than raised me
Don't need you anymore

This is where you stand
This is where you pray
This is where you sit
And this is where you lay
This is where you stand
This is where you pray
This is where you sit
And this is where you lay

I left you there to bleed by yourself
You left me here to die alone
I left you there to bleed by yourself
You left me here to die alone
I left you there to bleed by yourself
You left me here to die alone
I left you there to bleed by yourself
You left me here to die alone, yeah

Think time has made you crazy
Your mind is oh so gone
Think time has more than raised me
Don't need you anymore
Think time has made you crazy
Your mind is oh so gone
Think time has more than raised me
Don't need you anymore

Can someone save me, from this hell I've made?
Can someone save me, before it's too

Late nights have driven me insane
From you, I feel so far away

I'm all alone now in this hell I've made
I'm all alone now, I think it's too

Late nights have driven me insane
From you I feel so far away
Late nights have driven me insane
From you I feel so far away
(I feel so far away)

Can you tear me away from this, I said
Can you tear me away
Can you tear me away from this, I said
Can you tear me away
Can you tear me away from this, I said
Can you tear me away

Can someone save me, from this hell I've made
Can someone save me, before it's too

Late nights have driven me insane
From you I feel so far away
Late nights have driven me insane
From you I feel so far away
(I feel so far away)

Close the book and turn the page
Exit players from the stage
Count the moons and the stars
But please stop fighting wars with me

After all is said and done you still try
After all is said and done you're not mine

Turn your back on all hope
This sheep has shed his winter coat
You send your notes and rantings
This pigeon has hard times landing

After all is said and done you still try
After all is said and done you're not mine

After all is said and done you still try
After all is said and done you're not mine

We'll be tonightless

We can't wait another moment
Our time will come before we know it (before we know it)
With your heart you got to open up this time
I don't want to be alone tonight

Am I gonna be tonightless again?
Although the loneliness has got to end
I know the years have been so bittersweet
But you don't have to go, so please don't leave

Our souls are lost without each other
We got to find some time to recover (to recover)
If you hold me close, this heartache will subside
I don't want to be alone tonight

Am I gonna be tonightless again?
Although the loneliness has got to end
I know the years have been so bittersweet
But you don't have to go, so please don't leave

We'll be tonightless
We'll be tonight

We'll be tonightless
We'll be tonight
We'll be tonightless
We'll be tonight (You know me well, you know me well)
We'll be tonightless
We'll be tonight (You know me well, you know me well)
We'll be tonightless (We'll be tonightless, baby)
We'll be tonight (You know me well, you know me well)

Poetic madness, drains from my mind
You've fucked me there too many times
Heart in throat, I'm all choked up
Heart in throat, I'm all choked up

I wish I was
Now give me sanity
This is the love, I can't control
And now you've lost it
And you're just so fucking crazy

You make me crazy
Dope sick and depressed
But she's magnetic
She's so magnetic

You , you make, you make me
You make me crazy
You make me so fucking crazy
Fucking crazy, fucking crazy

A bittersweet orgasmic mind fuck
Or the smoothest sheet of something stainless
Will pleasure me for now
And now I find myself where the needle was too weak
And now I find myself where the razor couldn't speak

Now cover me
In your green essence, lovely
Distance, where I can't touch you
That's where the gun will touch you

Paint up your pretty face
You're something I wish I was
Paint up your pretty face
Give me this agony

Paint up your pretty face
Paint up your pretty face
Paint up your pretty face

Her makeup smears away
With the tears
That eyeliners runnin'
And she's runnin' away from me

The lipstick stains like gold
And for that moment
I wanted to be her
Feeling, how I failed her

Right now, the drama bites hard
You're the poison in the bottle
In that, just knocked me out
A simulcast signing off, yeah

Mind controls a bitch
I'm on that downer depressant
That overcast chill
And she's just so fucking sexy

Yeah, lips like sin, die like sin
Lips like sin, die like sin
I'm on that downer depressant
That overcast chill
She's dressed in black and dressed to kill

Lips like sin
