A Pain That I'm Used To
I'm not sure
What I'm looking for anymore
I just know
That I'm harder to console
I don't see who I'm trying to be
Instead of me
But the key
Is a question of control
Can you say
What you're trying to play anyway
I just pay
While you're breaking all the rules
All the signs that I find
Have been underlined
Devils thrive on the drive
That is fuelled
All this running around
Well it's getting me down
Just give me a pain that I'm used to
I don't need to believe
All the dreams you conceive
You just need to achieve
Something that rings true
There's a hole in your soul
Like an animal
With no conscience
Repentance unknown
Close your eyes
Pay the price for your paradise
Devils feed on the seeds
That are sown
Can't conceal what I feel
What I know is real
No mistaking the faking
I care
With a prayer in the air
I will leave it there
On a note full of hope
Not despair
All this running around
Well it's getting me down
Just give me a pain that I'm used to
I don't need to believe
All the dreams you conceive
You just need to achieve
Something that rings true

John the Revelator
Put him in a elevator
Take him up to the highest high
Take him up to the top where the mountains stop
Let him tell his book of lies
John the Revelator
He's a smooth operator
It's time we cut him down to size
Take him by the hand
And put him on the stand
Let us hear his alibis
By claiming God as his only rock
He's stealing a god from the Israelite
Stealing a god from a Muslim, too
There is only one god through and through
Taken from OldieLyrics.com
Seven lies, multiplied by seven, multiplied by seven again
Seven angels with seven trumpets
Send them home on the morning train
Well who's that shouting?
John the Revelator!
All he ever gives us is pain
Well who's that shouting?
John the Revelator!
He should bow his head in shame
Bye-bye
Bye-bye
Bye-bye
Bye-bye
Seven lies, multiplied by seven, multiplied by seven again

Suffer Well
Where were you when I fell from grace
A frozen heart, an empty space
Somethings changed, its in your eyes
Please dont speak, youll only lie
I found treasure not where I thought
Peace of mind cant be bought
Still I believe
Just hang on
Suffer well
Sometimes its hard
Its hard to tell
An angel led me when I was blind
I said take me back, Ive changed my mind
Now I believe
From the blackest room, I was torn
You called my name, my love was born
So I believe
Justhang on
Suffer well
Sometimes its hard
Its hard to tell
The Sinner In Me
If I could just hide
The sinner inside
And keep him denied
How sweet life would be
If I could be free
From the sinner in me
Ill never be a saint
Thats not a picture
That your memory paints
Not renowned for my patience
Im not renowned for my restraint
But youre always around
You can always be found
To pick me up
When Im on the ground
If I could just hide
The sinner inside
And keep him denied
How sweet life would be
If I could be free
From the sinner in me
Im still recovering
Still getting over all the suffering
More known for my anger
Than for any other thing
But youve always tried
To be by my side
And catch my fall
When I start to slide
If I could just hide
The sinner inside
And keep him denied
How sweet life would be
If I could be free
From the sinner in me
Precious
Precious and fragile things
Need special handling
My God what have we done to you
We always tried to share
The tenderest of care
Now look what we have put you through
Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought wed managed
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give
Angels with silver wings
Shouldnt know suffering
I wish I could take the pain for you
If God has a master plan
That only he understands
I hope its your eyes Hes seeing through
Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought wed managed
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give
I pray youll learn to trust
Have faith in both of us
And keep room in your hearts for two
Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought wed managed
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
Macro
Overflowing senses
Heightened awareness
I hear my blood flow
I feel its caress
Whispering cosmos
Talking right to me
Unlimited endless
God breathing through me
See the microcosm
In macro vision
Our bodies moving
With pure precision
One universal celebration
One evolution
One creation
Thundering rhythm
Pounding within me
Driving me onwards
Forcing me to see
Clear and enlightening
Right there before me
Brilliantly shining
Intricate beauty
See the microcosm
In macro vision
Our bodies moving
With pure precision
One universal
Celebration
One evolution
One creation
I Want It All
I see a river
Its oceans that I want
You have to give me everything
Everythings not enough
Its my desire
To give myself to you
Sometimes
Sometimes I try
Sometimes I lie, with you
Sometimes I cry
Sometimes I die, its true
Somewhere I find something thats kind in you
And Ive crossed the line again
A line I drew in sand
And still you give me everything
But everythings not enough
Im ready but not willing
To give myself to you
Sometimes
Come on over lay down beside me
And Ill try
Come on over lay down beside me
And Ill try
And Ill try
I want it all
Nothing's impossible
Just give me a reason, some kind of sign
Ill need a miracle to help me this time
I heard what you said and I feel the same
I know in my heart that Ill have to change
Even the stars look brighter tonight
Nothings impossible
I still believe in love at first sight
Nothings impossible
How did we get to be this far apart?
How did we get to be this far apart?
I want to be with you, have something to share
I want to be here I'm not There
Even the stars look brighter tonight
Nothings impossible
I still believe in love at first sight
Nothings impossible
Even the stars look brighter tonight
Nothings impossible
If you believe in love at first sight
Nothings impossible
I still believe in love at first sight
Nothings impossible
Introspectre
Intrumental
Damaged People
Were damaged people
Drawn together
By subtleties that we are not aware of
Disturbed souls
Playing out forever
These games that we once thought we would be scared of
When youre in my arms
The world makes sense
There is no pretence
And youre crying
When youre by my side
There is no defence
I forget to sense Im dying
Were damaged people
Praying for something
That doesnt come from somewhere deep inside us
Depraved souls
Trusting in the one thing
The one thing that this life has not denied us
When I feel the warmth of your very soul
I forget Im cold
And crying
When your lips touch mine
And I lose control
I forget Im old
And dying
Lilian
Oh, Lilian
Look what youve done
Youve stripped my heart
Ripped it apart
In the name of fun
Oh, Lilian
Im a poor mans son
And precious jewels
Werent found in schools
Where I came from
Pain and misery
Always hit the spot
Knowing you cant lose
What you havent got
Oh, Lilian
I should have run
I should have known
Each dress you own
Is a loaded gun
Oh, Lilian
Oh, Lilian
I need protection
I hear your voice
And any choice
I had is gone
Oh, Lilian
Once I'd begun
I couldnt stop
Till every drop
Of blood was sung
Pain and misery
Always hit the spot
Knowing you cant lose
What you havent got
Oh, Lilian
Look what youve done
You've stripped my heart
Ripped it apart
In the name of fun
Oh, Lilian...
The Darkest Star
Oh you sad one
Playing the Angel
Isnt so easy where youre from
Oh you wild one
Devils companion
You wont stay satisfied for long
I dont want you to change anything you do
I dont want you to be something else for me
Oh you dark one
Eternal outsider
Caught in the spiders web youve spun
Oh you blind one
Gentle and kind one
Seeing the world as a loaded gun
I dont want you to change anything you do
I dont want you to be someone else for me
Stay as you are the darkest star
Shining for me
Majestically
I dont want you to change anything you do
I dont want you to be someone else for me
