I'm not the first you sucked down
I drank your pleasure slow
Then stumbled out from your veil
Still I've come for you tonight
Choke my faith and stab my pride
And tell myself that

[Chorus:]
This is the last time
This is the last time
This is the last time now
I'll bleed for you

Preservation or predation
As I'm reeling I don't know
Crumbled I spill out of your hand
I want to fall

Memories are just where you laid them
Dragging the waters til the depths give up their dead
What did you expect to find
Was it something you left behind
Don't you remember anything I said when I said,

[Chorus:]
Don't fall away and leave me to myself
Don't fall away and leave love bleeding in my hands, in my hands again
And leave love bleeding in my hands, in my hands
Love lies bleeding

Mister could you maybe lend a hand
To held a drowning, starving, soulless man
Whose eyes are blind and feelings all but numb
Whose ears are all so deaf and mouth is dumb

[Chorus:]
This is the way, is the way
I fill your spaces now
It's the way, it's the way
Cause all that's been left for me
Is the fight to fill these empty spaces now

Night is day and day is night again

Chase the sun in my head
Blistered skin turning red
I can't complain
It's something to do
Cloud my mind and erase you

[Chorus:]
Since you're gone
All is wrong
Nothing feels the same down here
And if you're gone
And I'm alone
Whose heart will I scar now dear

Fall in, fall out
Break free, break down

Feel my legs pushing through
This world I built around you
I know the blame

Had a bad day again
She said I would not understand
She left a note and said "I'm sorry, I had a bad day again.
Spilled her coffee, broke her shoelace.
Smeared the lipstick on her face.
Slammed the door and said "I'm sorry, I had a bad day again."

And she swears there's nothing wrong
I hear her playing that same old song
She puts me up and puts me on

And had a bad day again

Lay me down in sheets of linen where she lies
I know she's grinning in there
Crossed your heart and hoped to die
And still you broke that spirit that I bear

[Chorus:]
Lay me down for a while
Maybe you can tell me why
All my dreams are so defiled
And prove to me
You're something like human!

Lay me down in sheets of linen where she hides
I know I'm going nowhere

I've seen your "Johnny Come Lately"
Seen your exiled love parade
For you another is so easy
One more mask for the charade

[Chorus:]
Yeah you don't hear the sounds I hear
Yeah you don't feel the fear you fear
The distance that is there
Well it's wearing really thin now
And breaking you down is gonna be so easy

I've felt your high and mighty
Parasols and darkest shades

I gave you everything
I gave you trust and salvation
I gave you everything that I could provide
I gave you strength to stand and you shoved me
Down

[Chorus:]
I know you want me to love you
But all you ever do is bring me down
Won't you go away forever

I've felt the world of pain
Brought me to the water and then left me dry
Took the drug from the user

Draw the shades to close my eyes
(I never want to see again)
I found the cost of courage high
(Sometimes hard to pay)
I hear the song the sirens sing
(Calling on the shore for me)
So sell your soul and try to fly
(The teather still remains)
And all the finer things they laid apon my table
Smiled as their hooks were slowly sinking in

Another pill I'm to consume

Give me one good reason
To why you're so blind
I covered your back again
And you'd better cover mine

[Chorus:]
If I turned and walked aay
Would you stick your knives in me
How much longer til you break
Until I walk away, walk away from you

Give me one good reason
To why you're so unkind
You know I believe, believe it's true
You know I believe in you

[Chorus]

Satan, you know where I lie
Gently I go into that good night
All our lives get complicated
Search for pleasures overrated
Never armed our souls
What the future would hold
When we were innocent
Angels, lend me your might
Forfeit all my lives to get just one right
All those colors long since faded
All our smiles are confiscated
Never were we told
What the future would hold

All this time
I thought this coming down was fine
Now everything I fought to grow
Is withered hanging on that vine

[Chorus:]
And all I wanted
Was all I needed you know
And everything good in my life
If you have to take it all way
Oh, no, take it all away, oh, no no no...
Take it slow.

Everything I try to find
Is every love I'll never hold
And in your garden now

O.K. Ready to take off
do it slow
I'm living on the bottom
I got to go
five little fingers
grabbing at the glass
gone, those days
now I'm running
up and down in my cage

Too late to defend, I'm buried - insane
don't you know there's more to life than to win
are you that kind of stereotype?
it's no time, there's no time
there's nothing I could answer

No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing

Memories are just where you laid them
Dragging waters till the depths give up their dead
What did you expect to find?
Was it something you left behind?
Don't you remember everything I said when I said

Don't fall away, and leave me to myself
Don't fall away, and leave love bleeding in my hands
In my hands again
Leave love bleeding in my hands
In my hands
Love lies bleeding...

All this time
I thought this coming down was fine
Now everything I fought to grow
Is withered hanging on that vine

[Chorus:]
And all I wanted
Was all I needed you know
And everything good in my life
If you have to take it all way
Oh, no, take it all away, oh, no no no...
Take it slow.

Everything I try to find
Is every love I'll never hold
And in your garden now

Satan, you know where I lie
Gently I go into that good night
All our lives get complicated
