Leeches

Like leeches

"Ignorance we trust".

If you say this way, I'll take that way

Fuel for the fire on wich I thrive.

Chorus:

    Spit me out

    I'm glad I don't belong

    Save me the speech

    You'll be forgotten and gone.

    It burns, it rips, it hurts...

Leeches, they preach to us

Words of wisdom from blocked minds.

Chorus:

    Spit me out

    I'm glad I don't belong

    Save me the speech

    You'll be forgotten and gone.

    It burns, it rips, it hurts

    They make you bleed your turn

    The chance of a lifetime,

    How does it fell to be alive?

A tear for the poet that can't be heard

(And) praise the artist that steals.

Chorus.

Shot for shot

Let the bullet penetrate me

Embrace me

Tell me stories of golden gods

The precision in your voice

Pierce the walls that I've build

Your eyes reach deep in ME.

Take a chance

They don't come much bigger than this

Dark Star spend another day with me

A dead surface that doesn't reflect

The storm underneath

Take a chance

Bring me the calm.

    ... And it leaves NOTHING

    Expose the dark side,

    Aching and emotional,

    Expose the dark side,

    Impossible to tame.

Chorus:

    Away from the light of the sun

    Away I find what is really me. (x2)

Throw yourself into the eye of chaos

Infiltrate me

Sneak out before I awake

Take out the trash and burn it

Try to find a beautiful place to lay

These fragile bones of mine.

Chorus.

... And it leaves NOTHING

    Expose the dark side,

    Aching and emotional,

    Expose the dark side,

    Impossible to tame.

Chorus.

Save all your prayers

I think we lost today

There's no morning after

And no one's around to blame.

I'm not afraid to bleed

But I won't do it for you

A star among hypocrites

The melody of our time.

So say goodbye to the world

We're the dead that walk the earth.

Chorus:

    Scream you lungs out

    Wait for laughter

    You don't have to wait for ever

    Here's the next disaster!

What decides when you've lost a war

When the first man falls

Or when they've erased it all.

We're numb to feel

The downfall starts here

Hold your breath and swim

Swallowed by life's tear.

In times of make belive,

No one really seems to care

Maybe I should care less

Cause I'll die too.

So say goodbye to the world

We're the dead that walk the earth.

Chorus.

What will it take for us to realize

The more we provoke,

Winter will come TWICE.

Save all your prayers

I think we lost today

There's no morning after

And no one's around to blame.

Chorus. (x2)

We are ordinary people,

We all live different lives

In the end we're pretty much the same

We're just living in differnt lies

We're just live in differnt lies

We're just live in differnt lies!

Chorus:

    They scream, You scream, I scream

    We scream but no one listens.

    Abuse to feel superior,

    Is it working for you?  (x2)

We are ordinary people,

In a world build on stress

When we build walls around us

We end up in a mess.

Chorus.

Rushing through 30

Getting older every day By two

Drawing pictures of innocent times

Could you add colour inside these lines?

Chorus:

    I want you to lead me,

    Take me somewhere.

    Just don't want to live

    In a dream one more day.  (x2)

Sure it would change my perspective

I'm certain I would change today

I'm certain it would change our ways

Would things fall into place?

Chorus.

Take me somewhere.

Just don't want to live

In a dream one more day... (x2)

The yesterday we loved.

Speak of tomorrow.

The burden of man is that time never takes a pause

We live from monday to sunday

But we forget what it means

Then a ghost comes to visit

And we tell stories from tabloids.

Call all your friends,

Watch fake photographs

From a made up vacation.

Speaking in tongues about ancient artifacts.

Chorus:

    We steal from beggars

    And ask for understanding

    Lie rape steal and murder

    To make tonights headlines.

    Trust the system.

    Make your contribution.

    Smile, applaud, love, hail.

    The weaker you get, the stronger they become.

    Listen in silence.

    Hear her voice.

    How far are we ready to take this?

    Listen in silence.

    Hear her voice.

    Before it all crumbles.

    Lie, rape, steal and murder

    Smile, applaud, love, hail.

Gather in front of the TV.

Exploding sympathy.

The weatherman our trust,

Our punctual company

Chorus.

Listen in silence.

Hear her voice.

How far are we ready to take this?

Listen in silence.

Hear her voice.

Before it all crumbles.

Compassion.

Confession.

It's all a compromise.

Dedication.

Domination.

Please define the lines.

Irritation.

Innovation.

Pair up to succeed.

Totaliation.

Termination.

Fake smiles and greed.

Chorus:

    Surrender to nothing.

    Or run, as far as you can

    I'm trying to hold on to what I belive in,

    But my heart is in a coma!

Aggression.

Attention.

A need to be seen.

Directed.

Disrespected.

Stand in a line to be thankful OBSCENE.

Chorus. (x2)

I'm trying to hold on to what I belive in,

But my heart is in a coma!

The black hole forever mine.

I need fear.

Push me out

Ohh be brave

Show me signs

Should I feel shame for the questions that I have?

If you could be

The things I need.

I'll crawl through knives

An inch per tear.

These knees, they bleed for you.

Let the colour persuade the hate

That you fear.

Feed the lie.

Force the reason.

Leave me in doubt.

Need some motivation

Chorus:

    It's in my hands.

    The sky is so bright.

    It's burning.

    It's for me to decide.

    If flames will reach heaven tonight.

    It's in my hands.

Nailed to the floor

Paralyzed

Emotions drifting

Though the new

If you could be

The things I need.

I'll crawl through knives

An inch per tear.

These knees, they bleed for you.

Let the colour persuade the hate

That you fear.

Chorus. (x3)

When all is said and done

We'll know what's right, what's wrong

But does it matter then

When all is said an done.

When all is dead and gone

We'll know who lost, who won

But does it matter then

When all is dead and gone.

Chorus:

    See everything go

    End of all things

    The life that we know

    Shift your point of view

    You've been warned

    This one way ticket is for you.

When all the lights go out

We know what life's about

But does it matter then

When all the lights go out.

When all the laughter dies

We'll see nothingness and realize

But does it matter then

When all the laughter DIES.

Chorus.

When all the laughter dies

We'll see nothingness and realize

But does it matter then

When all the laughter DIES.

Chorus.

In a disaster story

A central confilct of primal rage

Usual sort of desperation

Characters remain the same.

Chorus:

    NEVER CUT YOU OUT,

    I CUT YOU IN

    Feeding on life leftovers

    I am writing to you

    You should realize

    It hurts in me, too.

Walk on broken glass

Is the pain safe at the end?

All the elements in life's complexity

Make our struggle infinite.

Chorus.

All the elements in life's complexity

Make our struggle infinite

Chorus.

I CUT YOU IN

Feeding on life leftovers

I am writing to you

You should realize

It hurts less I cut you in.

Vanishing light

The end of a compromise

In fury, in rage

A dream will demenish.

Behind enemy lines

Learn to survive

Find a way to clone

Make friends and place a to call home.

Chorus:

    Take a picture and jump before we crash. (x2)

    Slide away

    Learn your ways and fire when ready

    This is a race

    To no mans land

    But who knows the direction?

You're on the easy route

Money up front?

There's no doubt.

Chorus.

It's so sad

But pay no mind!

Chorus.

Find time

And play with innocence

Like you ever would

I don't see you make any sense

I guess you deliver misery

Just like you should

9 o'clock

And you paint the skies grey

It ain't your fault

We're the ones who betray

But how can you say it with such ease?

You want to take a stand or just please?

Your bedtime story is scaring everyone

But you make me understand the evil that men do

The evil that men do
