The Hanging Garden lyrics

Creatures kissing in the rain,

Shapeless in the dark again.

In the hanging garden,

please don't speak.
In the hanging garden no one sleeps.

in the hanging garden,

in the hanging garden

Casting halo's on the moon,

Gives my hands the shapes of angels.

In the heat of the night, the animals scream.

In the heat of the night, walking into a dream.

Keeping Out Of Direct Sunlight (An Introduction) lyrics

We are the ones with the radiating eyes.
We are the Ones who have a fire inside.
We are the ones only we can recognize.
We've been rejected (we've been rejected)-
Suffered the ignorance, suffered the selfishness,
been pushed so far down now comes our time to surface.
Turn from the light, that made them all go blind.
We've been protected (we've been protected)

Let It Be Broke lyrics

I live in truth, complacently.
Where's the threat you see in me?
Am I the cause of your self consciousness?
You scream at me
'cause I can't ignore the destructiveness that you support,
'cause my life's contrary to yours.
No soft words from my mouth.
A glazed look in your eyes.
I live in the world of reality, you comfort yourself with lies.

Last Caress lyrics

[Misfits cover]

Well I got something to say,
I killed your baby today,
And it, doesn't matter much to me,
as long as it's dead.
Well I got something to say,
I raped your Mother today,
And it, doesn't matter much to me,
as long as she's spread.

Sweet lovely death, i've been waiting for your breath,
oh sweet death, one last caress.

Go!

Single Second lyrics

Oh my God! My God this can't be happening!
God tell me, tell me this isn't real!
I can't believe all that I have
foreseen is finally happening.
I cannot for a single second stand the way I feel.
I always knew. I always saw it coming.
Enveloped now, encased by my worst fear.
I've never felt the nausea of longing to feel nothing,
I never wanted to cease to

Coin Return lyrics

i have slipped and i have fallen so far down i can't get out.
Overwhelmed by my doubt.
Things i said i'd never do i've done.
Those i said i'd never be i've become.
i have broken - i'm still breaking - cracked and wrecked, beyond repair.
i can see that no one cares. Forgotten.
Recalled. Smacks me in the face every time i fall.
i cannot disregard, with each new fall i hit twice as hard.

Lower Your Head And Take It In The Body lyrics

Drowned in flames is where I can be found,
my nose broke from being smashed into the ground.
What a waste, this place I call my home.
Escape this place and break out on my own! I'm still reaching.
Try to slap me down, but I'll still
hold. In the fray is where I can be found.
My head is bruised from always being knocked around.
What a fight, this life I call my own!

Ph Low lyrics

So quickly draining away.
If you could only hear all the things you used to say.
Consumed now by what you knew
was poisonous, quenching your thirst for life (for life.)
Will you die for me?
Will you live for me?
Kill aspirations away.
Embrace a dream that was a nightmare only yesterday.
True friends forgotten and all hopes been traded in,
exchanged for what.
For what?

Salt For Your Wounds lyrics

There's a tear in my heart where the blood ran out.
There's a tear in my heart where the love ran out.
I thought
we worked, pushed toward the same ends,
I'll never be so quick to trust again.
Disenchanted, disgusted, I regret that I trusted.
I put my faith.
My faith in you, you poisoned me through and through.
I though we both shared the same injuries.

Third Season lyrics

It's gonna take you by surprise as it rises.
Can you feel the pulse?
Can you feel the heat rising from below?
Can you feel the energy gaining strength, oh so slowly?
But i'll wait...i'll wait...till the seasons change.
i'll wait...i'll wait... till the fall comes.
And i'll give you a mirthless laugh.
Can you see the signs?
Can you see the changing of the winds?

Three Reasons lyrics

Where were you? Say you were gone?
Well, ask me and I'll swear you were there all along.
Another place? Another state?
At any rate, I can't relate.
There's no two ways, you're a disgrace.
Drown down your fear, suffocate every spark of clarity.
Your weakness: sickens me, saddens me, strengthens me.
There's no way to free responsibility.
Who's to blame? Who's in the wrong?

Today's Lesson lyrics

Here is your lesson for today, ya better listen up real fucking good!
My cloud always has a silver lining, and I
love everything that I see.
My world is wonderful and no one could ever hurt me.
You hate yourself, yes you do, and that's
why right now I hate you.
You hate yourself, yes you do, and that's why right now I can't stand you.
Have you learned your lifes lesson yet? No?

Triple Zero lyrics

It burns! It burns! It burns my eyes and throat, but I need no antidote.
Gnawing and tearing at my insides -
seething, keeping me alive - hatred poisons me through and through -
a sustenance - keeping me true. It's not too late.
It's never gonna be too late.
Embrace your hate. The pain! The pain!
The pain it crushes me. I gain animosity. Acid sweat and

Last Caress [Misfits, vinyl only] lyrics

Well I've got somethin' to say,
I killed your baby today.
And it doesn't matter much to me
as long as it's dead.

Well I've got somethin' to say,
I raped your mother today.
And it doesn't matter much to me
as long as she spread.

Sweet lovely death,
I've been waiting for your breath.
Oh sweet death, one last caress.

Go!

Sweet lovely death,
I've been waiting for your breath.
