Omnium Gatherum
Slasher
1. Slasher
Can you question the deep insight
Will you assess what is right
Left is a promise forced to hide
Is there a reason to be so dead inside
As the night falls down
All beliefs of the heart
Since you left it far behind
Can you be certain not still twined
What is fate if not certainty
You're not too late, certainly
As the night falls down
All beliefs of the heart
As the night falls down
All beliefs of the heart
Shadows in the dark
Shadows in the dark, in the dark
There is no shadow in the dark
There is no shadow in the dark, in the dark
As the night falls down
All beliefs of the heart
As the night falls down
All beliefs of the heart
Shadows in the dark
Shadows in the dark, in the dark
There is no shadow in the dark
There is no shadow in the dark, in the dark
2. Maniac (Michael Sembello cover)
Just a steel town girl on a Saturday night
Lookin' for the fight of her life
In the real time world no one sees her at all
They all say she's crazy
Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart
Changing movement into light
She has danced into the danger zone
When the dancer becomes the dance
It can cut you like a knife
If the gift becomes the fire
On a wire between will and what will be
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
On the ice-blue line of insanity
Is a place most never see
It's a hard-won place of mystery
Touch it, but can't hold it
You work all your life for that moment in time
It could come or pass you by
It's a push-shove world, but there's always a chance
If the hunger stays the night
There's a cold kinetic heat
Struggling, stretching for the beat
Never stopping with her hair against the wind
She's a maniac, maniac, at your door
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac, at your door
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
It can cut you like a knife
If the gift becomes the fire
On a wire between will and what will be
She's a maniac, maniac, at your door
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac, at your door
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
Maniac, maniac
Maniac
3. Sacred
We've grown past the thing
It kept on lingering
Destroyed the foul ground
The wind has a new sound
Wanna know why
We are not afraid
An undesired state
Of being
There you see a sacrifice
A deadly kiss to be
A scream will set it free
What is sacred
Let it not be forgotten
To remember the ones who truly forgave
You wanna know the thing
Meaningful
It is here and everywhere
Somewhere you and I were there
There you see a sacrifice
A deadly kiss to be
A scream will set it free
What is sacred
There you see a sacrifice
A deadly kiss to be
A scream will set it free
What is sacred
Then you know why
We are not afraid
The undesired state of play
Then you know the thing
Meaningful
You can hear it everywhere
Somewhere you and I were there
There you see a sacrifice
A deadly kiss to be
A scream will set it free
What is sacred
There you see a sacrifice
A deadly kiss to be
A scream will set it free
What is sacred
4. Lovelorn
Feel the coming day
One never went away
The only guest
Here to stay
Lay it out tonight
Show 'em you are the kind that makes it
Count tonight
And none can deny the gravity
How the sleepless talk
Continue to walk
Against the circle
Can you feel me and the night
So we see it is alright
Seems to be
The matters of the heart
We sometimes miss
And get lost to
How the sleepless talk
Continue to walk
Against the circle
Can you feel me and the night
So we see it is alright
Can you feel me and the night
So we see it is alright
Lay it out tonight
Show'em you are the kind that makes it
Count tonight
And none can deny the gravity
Lay it out tonight
Make it count tonight
Love is loud tonight
And none will deny
