1. Say Just Words (edit)
You get high, with your destructive instinct
You get high, with your corrosive instinct
Where can I go, to escape your foul mind tricks
You're trying it more, but you will never break me
Cause you presume, the winner is you but that's not true,
So say just words to me, unreal what your hate's providing,
Say just words to me, your talk is always contradiction
Say just words to me, you won't feel the warmth of friends around you
Say just words to me, is it true that there is worth inside
So say just words to me
Your desires, all the worse from power craving
Your desires, only where there's fire burning,
I'll show you the way a pleasure that's for the talking,
You're trying it more but you won't get satisfaction
Cause you presume the winner is you but that's not true
So say just words to me
2. How Soon Is Now?
I am the son
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
of nothing in particular
you shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does
I am the son
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
of nothing in particular
you shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does
there's a club if you'd like to go
you could meet somebody who really loves you
so you go, and you stand on your own
and you leave on your own
and you go home, and you cry
and you want to die
when you say it's gonna happen "now"
well, when exactly do you mean?
see I've already waited too long
and all my hope is gone
you shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does
3. Albino Flogged In Black
[Originally performed by Stillborn]
'o you sweet, little six six sixteen
I'm the saviour of your sisterhood
stretched thing, held in leash for daddy
clench the thong now honey clench it good
shadow blue, the shadow of the ox whip
whistling through the dark and kiss my poor child
slashed sister, kneel before your daddy
and squeeze now honey swallow my pride
'o you are my favourite nightmare
'o you are my favourite nightmare
nude thing, 'o the nude so naked
mummy's little girl a long way from home
all by herself, on a southern highway
now you're the princess of my leather dome
'o you are my favourite nightmare
'o you are my favourite nightmare
'o you sweet, little six six sixteen
I'm your daddy you're my flesh and blood
shadow black, the shadow of the razor
all over my room just flesh and blood
4. Cruel One
I need time I know
I need time I know
but it's too late
your time I don't need
I've the mission for you
can you see it through
resist what I say
accept what I do...
you'll see
mourning the loss is just pain to one self
numbered days are few
the lies promised to you
are a good way
of keeping it all
collapsed is our bond
I pretend to respond
no love for the lost...
no love for the lost...
you'll see
mourning the loss is just pain to one self
5. Soul Courageous
I could not care less for on,
So many things tales of your distress
And what tomorrow brings alluring
You on sight I'd harbour my delight
You could not care
For what tune sorrows sings
In this battle of ages
A breath of fire would light your pilot
Are you soul courageous
A breath of life would make you maybe see...
You bring me to the ground
Victory's in vain unless one knows the score
Inner peace reclines in place the bitter scorn
Spirit maketh man always at hand
But spirit fails to save the ones worth waiting for
Enormous thanks to Roman Isakov (isakov@elsite.ru)
