Green Day - Carpe Diem

Breaking in a sweat
Like a bomb threat
Is your silhouette fading out?
Nothing left to lose
Detonate the fuse
Another breaking news blowout

Ain't it beautiful?
So unusual
Life's a gas and it's running out
Living a cliche
Gonna seize the day
Bottle rockets and celebrate, celebrate, celebrate

Carpe diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask a reason and no reply
Are we all too young to die?

Making a living
Making a killing
What's worth forgiving?
Alright

The blink of an eye
Barely scraping by
Dominated by passer by's
Feeling out of luck
When the traffic's stuck
And you're feeling
So left behind

Getting off a binge
Get a second wind
Another promise
Just make a change
Got a Broken wing
Hear the angels sing
With a signal that's out of range
Ain't it strange?
Ain't it strange?

Carpe diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask a reason and no reply
Are we all too young to die?

Making a living
Making a killing
What's worth forgiving?
Alright

Making a living
Making a killing
What's worth forgiving?
Alright

Carpe diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask a reason and no reply
Are we all too young to die?

Carpe diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask a reason and no reply
Are we all too young to die?

Megadeth - À Tout Le Monde

Don't remember where I was
I realized life was a game
The more seriously I took things
The harder the rules became
I had no idea what it'd cost
My life passed before my eyes
I found out how little I accomplished
All my plans denied

So as you read this know my friends
I'd love to stay with you all
Please smile when you think of me
My body's gone that's all

A tout le monde
A tout mes amis
Je vous aime
Je dois partir
These are the last words
I'll ever speak
And they'll set me free

If my heart was still alive
I know it would surely break
And my memories left with you
There's nothing more to say
Moving on is a simple thing
What it leaves behind is hard
You know the sleeping feel no more pain
And the living all are scarred

A tout le monde
A tout mes amis
Je vous aime
Je dois partir
These are the last words
I'll ever speak
And they'll set me free

So as you read, know my friends
I'd love to stay with you all
Please smile, smile when you think about me
My body's gone that's all

A tout le monde
A tout mes amis
Je vous aime
Je dois partir
These are the last words
I'll ever speak
And they'll set me free

Morrissey - My Love Life

Aah ... Come on to my house
Come on and do something new
I know you love one person so
Why can't you love two?
Aah ... Give a little something
Give a little something
To my love life, to my love life
My love life
I know you love one person so
Why don't you love two, love?
Oh, love to ...
Give a little something
Give a little something
To my love life, to my love life
My love life
I know you love one person so
Why don't you love two, love?
Love to ... Oh, give a ...
Love
I know you love...
Aah ...

Peter Murphy - Indigo Eyes

Fire burning in a hill
The lines are rocky rough
Red angels wait to pick remains
The cindered shoulder
Of confused men

Separate from their awe
With grey desire
He looks out mad
His soft grey indigo eyes

Indigo eyes

Asking

His heaven is uncovered not
A black tree blocks his way
His way is skating round a dome
(His way is in dismay)

The playmate sings

Like Orphee in some thunder world
Asking to be bathed in light
To be exemplified

With grey desire he looks out mad
His soft grey indigo eyes

Saw his past
He had dug for trust
With blind infected hands

And wondered as the hurt bit hard
Why the sacred weren't at hand

Only when his ears were deaf
To the angels light burst waves
Only when his ears were deaf

Did life turn from fog to fog
But not evil but estranged
But not evil but estranged

Indigo eyes, Indigo eyes
Indigo eyes, Indigo eyes

With grey desire
He looks out mad
His soft grey

Indigo eyes
Indigo eyes

Siouxsie And The Banshees - Melt!

You are the melting men
You are the situation
There is no time to breathe
And yet one single breath
Leads to an insatiable desire
Of suicide... in sex

So many blazing orchids
Burning in your throat
Making you choke
Making you sigh
Sigh in tiny deaths
So melt!
My lover, melt!
She said melt!
My lover, melt!

You are the melting men
And as you melt
You are beheaded
Handcuffed (in lace and blood and sperm)

Swimming in poison
Gasping in the fragrance
Sweat carves a screenplay
Of discipline...and devotion

So melt!
My lover, melt!
She said melt!
My lover, melt!

Can you see?
See into the back of a long, black car
Pulling away from the funeral of flowers
With my hand between your legs
Melting...

The Pogues - Boys From The County Hell

On the first day of March it was raining
It was raining worse than anything that I have ever seen
I drank ten pints of beer and I cursed all the people there
And I wish that all this raining would stop falling down on me

And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning

At the time I was working for a landlord
And he was the meanest bastard that you have ever seen
And to lose a single penny would grieve him awful sore
And he was a miserable bollocks and a bitch's bastard's whore

And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning

I recall that we took care of him one Sunday
We got him out the back and we broke his fucking balls
And maybe that was dreaming and maybe that was real
But all I know is I left that place without a penny or fuck all

And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning

But now I've the most charming of verandas
I sit and watch the junkies, the drunks, the pimps, the whores
Five green bottles sitting on the floor
I wish to Christ, I wish to Christ that I had fifteen more

And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning

And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning

The boys and me are drunk and looking for you
We'll eat your frigging entrails and we won't give a damn
Me daddy was a blue shirt and my mother a madam
My brother earned his medals at Mai Lei in Vietnam

And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning

On the first day of March it was raining
It was raining worse than anything that I have ever seen
Stay on the other side of the road
'Cause you can never tell
We've a thirst like a gang of devils
We're the boys from the county hell

And it's lend me ten pounds, I'll buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning

And it's lend me ten pounds and I'll buy you a drink
And mother wake me early in the morning

The Cure - Shake Dog Shake

Ha ha ha!!!
Wake up in the dark
The aftertaste of anger in the back of my mouth
Spit it on the wall
And cough some more
And scrape my skin with razor blades
And make up in the new blood
And try to look so good
Follow me!
Make up in the new blood
And follow me to where the real fun is
Ha ha ha!!!

As stale and selfish as a sick dog
Spurning sex like an animal of god
I'll tear your red hair by the roots
And hold you blazing
Hold you cherished in the dead electric light

Your face
I'll never see you this way again
I captured it so perfectly
As if I knew you'd disappear away

Shake dog shake

You hit me again
You howl and hit me again
The same sharp pain
Wakes me in the dark
And cuts me from my throat to my pounding heart
My heart
My shaking heart

Shake dog shake

But we slept all night in the virgin's bed
And dreamed of death
And breathed like sick dogs
We slept all night in the virgin's bed
And breathed like death
And dreamed of sick dogs

Shake dog shake

Wake up wake up wake up!
Shake dog shake
Wake up wake up wake up!
Shake dog shake

Wake up in the new blood
Make up in the new blood
Shake up in the new blood
And follow me to where the real fun is...

Shake dog shake

The Clash - Bankrobber

My daddy was a bank robber
But he never hurt nobody
He just loved to live that way
And he loved to steal your money

Some is rich, and some is poor
That's the way the world is
But I don't believe in lying back
Sayin' how bad your luck is

So we came to jazz it up
We never loved a shovel
Break your back to earn your pay
An' don't forget to grovel

The old man spoke up in a bar
Said I never been in prison
A lifetime serving one machine
Is ten times worse than prison

Imagine if all the boys in jail
Could get out now together
Whadda you think they'd want to say to us?
While we was being clever

Someday you'll meet your rocking chair
'Cause that's where we're spinning
There's no point to want to comb your hair
When it's grey and thinning

Run rabbit run
Strike out boys, for the hills
I can find that hole in the wall
And I know that they never will

The Jesus And Mary Chain - Some Candy Talking

I'm going down to the place tonight
To see if I can get a taste tonight
A taste of something warm and sweet
That shivers your bones and rises to your heat

I'm going down to the place tonight
The damp and hungry place tonight
Should all the stars shine in the sky
They couldn't outshine your sparkling eyes
But it's so hard to be the one
To touch and tease and to do it all for fun
But it's too much for a young heart to take
Cause hearts are the easiest things you could break

And I talk to the filth and I walk to the door
I'm knee deep in myself
But I want to get more of that stuff
Of that stuff

Some candy talking
Talk

And I want
And I want
Some candy talking

Some candy talk

I love the way she's walking
I love the way she's talking
It's just the way she's walking
It's just the way she's talking

And I need
All that stuff
Give me some
Of that stuff
I want your candy.
I want your candy
And I need
Give me some
Of your stuff
Give me some
I want your candy. I want your candy.
I want your candy. I want your candy.
I want stuff

U2 - Trip Through Your Wires

In the distance, she saw me comin' round
I was callin' out, I was callin' out.
Still shakin', still in pain
You put me back together again.
I was cold and you clothed me, honey
I was down, and you lifted me, honey.

Angel, angel or devil?
I was thirsty
And you wet my lips.
You, I'm waiting for you
You, you set my desire
I trip through your wires.

I was broken, bent out of shape
I was naked in the clothes you made.
Lips were dry, throat like rust
You gave me shelter from the heat and the dust.
No more water in the well
No more water, water.

Angel, angel or devil?
I was thirsty
And you wet my lips.
You, I'm waiting for you
You, you set my desire
I trip through your wires.

Oh I need, oh I need
Oh I need, oh I need it.
Oh I need, oh I need
All I need, yeah, yeah!

Thunder, thunder on the mountain
There's a raincloud
In the desert sky.
In the distance
She saw me comin' round
I was callin' out
I was callin' out.

Cat Power - Troubled Waters

I must be
One of the devil's daughters
They look at me with scorn
I'll never hear their horn

Sometimes
It's like chains
Sometimes I hang my head
In shame
When people see me
They scandalize my name

I'm going down
To the devil's water
I'm gonna drown
In that troubled water
It's coming 'round my soul
It's way beyond control
I must be one
I must be one

I must be
One of the devil's daughters
They look at me with scorn
I'll never hear their horn

Sometimes
It's like chains
Sometimes I hang my head
In shame
When people see me
They scandalize my name

I'm going down
To the devil's water
I'm gonna drown
In that troubled water
It's coming 'round my soul
It's way beyond control
I must be one
I must be one
I must be

(originally recorded by Mae West with Duke Ellington's Orchestra)

New Order - Round & Round

I just can't help thinking what you've done to me
You built a wall of love and tore it right down in front of me
And you think you know what's going on
You keep telling me that I am wrong
I don't care about what you do
But if you mess with me I'll get rid of you

The picture you see is no portrait of me
It's too real to be shown to someone I don't know
And it's driving me wild
It makes me act like a child

You think I am crazy, but what can I do?
You waste your time, like my money
It ain't so funny, but it's true
(Don't waste my money, baby)
Now you can't tell me what's going on
And that I am weak while you are strong
What is it you need, that makes your heart bleed
Do you really know? 'cause it doesn't show

The picture you see is no portrait of me
It's too real to be shown to someone I don't know
And it's driving me wild
It makes me act like a child

The picture you see is no portrait of me
It's too real to be shown to someone I don't know
And it's driving me wild
It makes me act like a child

Paradise Lost - Two Worlds

The sense required is all too vague
Within my faculties, building me
This awesome presence longs to see
The times I've fallen
The times I've failed

And I've never seen my hands
And I couldn't walk away
Two worlds are the same tomorrow
Still I must not complain

The sense acquired is all too grave
With less than one percent left in me
This awesome prison locked and sealed
For times I've borrowed, for times I've failed

And I've never seen my hands
And I couldn't walk away
Two worlds are the same tomorrow
Still I must not complain

And I've never seen my hands
And I couldn't walk away
Two worlds are the same tomorrow
Still I must not complain

And I've never heard a whisper
And I'd never speak of pain
Two worlds are the same tomorrow
To all I seem inane

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Hard To Concentrate

Hustle, bustle and so much muscle awww
Cells about to separate
And I find it hard to concentrate and

Temporary this cash and carry
I’m stepping up to indicate
The time has come to deviate and

All I want is for you to be happy and
Take this moment to make you my family and
Finally you have found something perfect and
Finally you have found

Death defying this mess I’m buying
It’s raining down with love and hate
And I find it hard to motivate and

Estuary is blessed but scary your
Heart’s about to palpitate
And I’m not about to hesitate and

One to treasure the rest of your days here and
Give you pleasure in so many ways dear and
Finally you have found something perfect and
Finally you have found……..here we go

Do you want me to show up for duty and
Serve this woman and honor her beauty and
Finally you have found something perfect and
Finally you have found……yourself

With me……will you…agree…to take
This man…into your world…
And now…we are as one…

My lone ranger the heat exchanger
Is living in this figure eight
And I’ll do my best to recreate and

Sweet precision and soft collision awww
Hearts about to palpitate
And I find it hard to separate and

All I want is for you to be happy and
Take this woman and make you my family and
Finally you have found someone perfect and
Finally you have found……yourself

Iron Maiden - Heaven Can Wait

Can't understand what is happening to me,
This isn't real, this is only a dream,
But I never have felt, no I never have felt this way before,
I'm looking down on my body below,
I lie asleep in the midst of a dream,
Is it now could it be that the angel of death has come for me?
I can't believe that really my time has come,
I don't feel ready, there's so much left undone,
And it's my soul and I'm not gonna let it get away.

Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait til another day.
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait til another day.

I have a lust for the Earth below
And Hell itself is my only foe,
'Cause I've no fear of dying,
I'll go when I'm good and ready,
I snatch a glimpse of the light's eternal rays,
I see a tunnel, I stand amazed,
At all of the people standing there in front of me,
Into the paths of rightness I'll be led,
Is this the place where the living join the dead?
I wish I knew this was only just a nightmare.

Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait til another day.
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait til another day.

Take my hand, I'll lead you to the promised land,
Take my hand, I'll give you immortality,
Eternal youth, I'll take you to the other side,
To see the truth, the path for you is decided.

Oh oh

My body tingles, I feel so strange,
I feel so tired, I feel so drained,
And I'm wondering if I'll ever be the same again,
Is this in limbo or in Heaven or Hell?
Maybe I'm going down there as well,
I can't accept my soul will drift forever.
I feel myself floating back down to Earth,
So could this be the hour of my rebirth?
Or have I died or will I wake from dreaming?

Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait til another day.
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait,
Heaven can wait til another day.

The Smiths - Shakespeare's Sister

Young bones groan
And the rocks below say :
"Throw your skinny body down, son!"

But I'm going to meet the one I love
So please don't stand in my way
Because I'm going to meet the one I love
No, Mamma, let me go!

Young bones groan
And the rocks below say :
"Throw your white body down!"

But I'm going to meet the one I love
At last! At last! At last!
I'm going to meet the one I love
La-de-da, la-de-da
No, Mamma, let me go!
No...

I thought that if you had
An acoustic guitar
Then it meant that you were
A Protest Singer
Oh, I can smile about it now
But at the time it was terrible
No, Mamma, let me go
No...

Mogwai - Blues Hour

My ghost is
Always hungry,
My soul is over apart.

Train lines
Going nowhere,
No destination found.

Is this a final home?
Compensation,
Delivery undone.

And thanks for all this
Trying to listen
Remembering a kill.

Train lines
Going nowhere,
No destination found

We'll leave this world
Just as we found it,
We'll leave this place alone.

Star aligns
On a hill slide,
Everyone alone.

Train lines
Going nowhere,
No destination found

The Cult - Little Face

Her voice cut like a razor
A rose petal with summery eyes
You beautiful flame girl screamer
Seducer of the non-believers

Little face, they cut you down
They push your face into the ground
Oh little face, they cut you down
They push your face into the ground

Princess, but no virgin
A butterfly burnt by flame
She fluttered with her life
She stood outside till the winter came

Little face, they cut you down
They push your face into the ground
Oh little face, they cut you down
They push your face into the ground

And everyday they pull it tighter
The barbed wire wrapped around her heart
Yeah, everyday they pull it tighter
The barbed wire wrapped around her heart, oh, oh, oh

Her voice cut like a razor
A rose petal with summery eyes
Oh, beautiful flame girl screamer
Sweet seducer of the non-believers, oh yeah

Little face, they pushed you down
They push your face into the ground
Oh little face, they cut you down
They push your face into the ground

And everyday they pull it tighter
The barbed wire wrapped around her heart
Everyday they pull it tighter
The barbed wire wrapped around her heart, oh, oh, oh

Little face
Little face
Seducer of the non-believers
Little face
Little face

Led Zeppelin - The Rover

I've been to London, seen seven wonders. I know to trip is just to fall
I used to rock it, sometimes I'd roll it. I always knew what it was for.

There can be no denyin' that the wind 'll shake 'em down
And the flat world's flyin'. There's a new plague on the land

If we could just join hands
If we could just join hands
If we could just join hands

Traversed the planet when heaven sent me. I saw the kings who rule them all
Still by the firelight and purple moonlight. I hear the rested rivers call
And the wind is crying, from a love that won't grow cold
My lover, she is lying, on the dark side of the globe

If we could just join hands
If we could just join hands
If we could just join hands

You got me rockin' when I ought to be a-rollin'
Darlin', tell me, darlin', which way to go
You keep me rockin', baby, then you keep me stolen
Won't you tell me, darlin', which way to go... that's right

Oh how I wonder, oh how I worry and I would dearly like to know
I've all this wonder of earthly plunder will it leave us anything to show

And our time is flyin' see the candle burnin' low
Is the new world rising, from the shambles of the old

If we could just join hands.

Depeche Mode - Strangelove

There'll be times
When my crimes
Will seem almost unforgivable
I give in to sin
Because you have to make this life livable
But when you think I've had enough
From your sea of love
I'll take more than another riverful
And I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile

Strangelove
Strange highs and strange lows
Strangelove
That's how my love goes
Strangelove
Will you give it to me
Will you take the pain
I will give to you
Again and again
And will you return it

There'll be days
When I stray
I may appear to be
Constantly out of reach
I give in to sin
Because I like to practice what I preach
I'm not trying to say
I'll have it all my way
I'm always willing to learn
When you've got something to teach
And I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile

Pain will you return it
I'll say it again - pain
Pain will you return it
I won't say it again

I give in
Again and again
I give in
Will you give it to be
I give in
I'll say it again
I give in

I give in
Again and again
I give in
That's how my love goes
I give in
I'll say it again
I give in

R.E.M. - We Walk

Up the stairs to the landing, up the stairs into the hall
Oh, oh, oh
Take oasis, Marat's bathing
We walk through the wood, we walk
Up the stairs to the landing, up the stairs into the hall
Oh, oh, oh
Take oasis, Marat's bathing
We walk through the woods, we walk
Take oasis, take oasis
Take oasis, take oasis

Up the stairs to the landing, up the stairs into the hall
Oh, oh, oh
Take oasis, Marat's bathing
We walk through the world, we walk
Up the stairs to the landing, up the stairs into the hall
Oh, oh, oh
Take oasis, Marat's bathing
Up the stairs to the landing, up the stairs into the hall
Oh, oh, oh
Take oasis, Marat's bathing

Up the stairs to the landing, up the stairs into the hall
Oh, oh, oh
Into the, oh, oh, into the, oh, oh
Up, up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up, up

Smashing Pumpkins - Wound

There you are
As you always were
In bathing light
And naked blur
You're a part of me
Eternal one
By grand design
And setting sun

If you wait I will wait
Taste I will taste
If you love I will love
Run I will run
To my last breath

Last night I turned around
And thought I saw myself turning
Inside the strangest dream of life
Unloved and cities burning
Awake in my arms
You cry unharmed
Our age of the hours
While they still devour all

So take it all
I doubt if we
Will know it's gone
'Cause we've been here
Since time began
Begged God awake and make these plans

Wound opens
Reveal this broken man
And soon there's notions of blood on his hands

If you wait I will wait
Taste I will taste
If you love I will love
Run I will run
To my last breath

Last night I turned around
I thought I saw myself turning
Last night I turned around
And thought I watched the world ending
Inside the crushing down
I felt a pang the tide was turning

Destroyed in the wake
The jealous ingrates
Who'll tear this world down
To spite God above
With his own love
With his own love
If you wait
If you wait

If you wait I will wait
Taste I will taste
If you love I will love
Run I will run
To my last breath

Pearl Jam - Strangest Tribe

It's five below in evidence.
The winded eves and sideways snow.
His eminence has yet to show.

Follow the ageless tide.
Follow the angled light.
Follow the strangest tribe.
I... I... I...

It's 6:00 AM. You're waiting for...
You've had your feast. You're wanting more.

Follow the wayward mile.
Follow the distant high.
Follow the strangest tribe.
I... I... I...

Follow the ancient stripe.
Follow the angel's try.
Follow the strangest tribe.
I... I... I...

Lykke Li - Never Gonna Love Again

Baby can you hear the rain fall on me
Never gonna love again
Baby can you hear my heart cry tonight
I can't keep running away
This time
I can't keep running away,
'Cause I'm never gonna love again

Every time the rain falls, think of me
On a lonely highway
How can we
Turn around the heartache
Oh I, I'm alone tonight babe
And I'm never gonna love again

Baby wait a lifetime before
You love somebody new
Come and turn the lights down so I
Can feel your hand in mine
Can we
Start all over again cause
I'm never gonna love a new

Every time the rain falls, think of me
On a lonely highway
How can we
Turn around the heartache
Oh I, I'm alone tonight babe
And I'm never gonna love again

Never gonna love again, no not I,
Not I, I'm never gonna love again

Drive me to the dead end, till I
Promise not to run
This time
I can't keep running away cause
I'm never gonna love again.

Every time the rain falls, think of me
On a lonely highway
How can we
Turn around the heartache
Oh I, I'm alone tonight babe
And I'm never gonna love again

Sonic Youth - Tunic (Song For Karen)

Dreaming, dreaming of a girl like me
Hey what are you waiting for?
Feeding, feeding me
I feel like I'm disappearing
Getting smaller every day
But I look in the mirror
And I'm bigger in every way

She said:
You aren't never going anywhere
You aren't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere

I'm in heaven now, I can see you Richard
Goodbye Hollywood, goodbye Downey
Hello Janis, hello Dennis, Elvis
And all my brand new friends
I'm so glad you're all here with me
Until the very end

Dreaming, dreaming of how it's supposed to be
But now this tunic's spinning
Around my arms and knees
I feel like I'm disappearing
Getting smaller every day
But when I open my mouth to sing
I'm bigger in every way

She said:
You aren't never going anywhere
You aren't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere

Hey mom, look! I'm up here!
I finally made it
I'm playing the drums again, too
Don't be sad, the band doesn't sound half bad
And I remember mom, what you said
You said "Honey, you look so underfed"

Another green salad, another ice tea
There's a tunic in the closet waiting just for me
I feel like I'm disappearing
Getting smaller every day
But I look in your eyes
And I'm bigger in every way

She said:
You aren't never going anywhere
You aren't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere

Goodbye Richard! Gotta go now!
I'm finally on my own
The band's got a gig
Keep the love lights glowing
Little girl's got the blues
I can still hear mama say
"Honey, don't let it go to your head"

The Gathering - Gemini I

On the day that you woke me up from our dream to your nightmare
I didn’t know it was possible to feel so alone being with you
I tried to move, but you glued me to your side, with all that you gave me
Did you catch the moon together

When I saw the look upon your face
I knew we had lost precious hours through our days

Did her skin feel as soft as you always said mine are to your fingers?
Did her eyes look as deep into your soul as you always said mine did

Hunting down all my strength to reveal that clouds have appeared for regression
I tried to move but you’ve glued me to your side with all that you gave me
Will I find my way home

When I saw the look upon your face
I knew we had lost precious hours through our days

Paradise Lost - No Hope In Sight

No hope in sight
Daylight before them dies
Enshrine the horrified
No hope in sight

Have I prayed, as a slave of lasting cries
To obey, to sedate as humour dies

Cold embrace is the saviour in disguise
Through old age, only danger never dies

It’s a battle as the years start to fade

No hope inside
A light before us dies
Aligned the horrified
No hope in sight

You’ll face your fears
Through fading years

It’s a battle as the years start to fade

No hope in sight
Daylight before them dies
Enshrine the horrified
No hope in sight
