Альбом A.F.I.

(If you can't stand) upon the water
I will see you on the ocean floor.
(When you blink) do you only find
The misery between the lines?
Then take my hand and walk with me.
Come to me, your sanctuary.
I'll gladly accept the gift that I've been granted.
(If you) feel fine, then give it just a little time
I'm sure you'll contract my disease.

Chorus:
(Look what you've done to me now)
You've made me perfect.
(Look what you've done to me now)

If you can't stand upon the earth
Then I will see you on the other side.
(When you blink) do you only find
The misery weighs down your eyes?
Then take my side and sleep with me.

Chorus

Take my hand, I'll be everything to you.
Take my hand, I'll take everything from you.
I will seep under your skin. I will.
I will hold onto your heart. I will.

Chorus (2X)
What have you done?
What have you done?
What have you done?
What have you done?
DONE!

I remember when
I was told the story of crushed velvet,
Candle wax, and dried up flowers.

The figure on the bed,
All dressed up in roses, calling...
Beckoning to sleep... offering a dream.

The words were as mystical
As purring animals.
The circle of rage... the ghosts on the stage appeared.

The time was so tangible
I'll never let it go.
Ghost stories handed down, reached secret tunnels below.

No one could see me.

(Ohhhhhhhhhhhh)
I fell into yesterday.
(Ohhhhh)
Our dreams seemed not far away
I want to, I want to, I want to stay!
(Ohhhhhhhhhhhh)
I fell into fantasy!

The words were as mystical
As purring animals.
The circle of rage... the ghosts on the stage appeared.

The time was so tangible
I'll never let it go.
Ghost stories handed down, reached secret tunnels below.

No one could see me.

(Ohhhhhhhhhhhh)
I fell into yesterday.
(Ohhhhhhhhhhhh)
Our dreams seemed not far away.
I want to, I want to, I want to stay!!
(Ohhhhhhhhhhhh)
I fell into fantasy.

(Backround Oh's)
The girl on the wall always waited for me,
And she was always smiling.
The teenage death boys,
The teenage death girls... and everyone was dancing.
Nothing could touch us then,
No one could change us then,
Everyone was dancing.
Nothing could hurt us then,
No one could see us then,
And everyone was dancing,
Everyone was dancing.

No one could see me....

(ooooh)
I fell into yesterday
(ooooh)
our dreams seemed not far away
I want to, I want to, I want to stay
(ooooh)
I fell into fantasy

Our dreams seemed not far away...
Our dreams seemed not far away, hey....
Our dreams seemed not far away....
I fell into fantasy

A chilling silence.
A world of violets.
My breath materialized again.
Immaculate.
Inanimate.
A comfort cutting time I see...
a string of white lights.

Forever walking through December.
Forever longing for a sign of life,
a bringer of light.
Forever wandering together
a world of violets.

Ice everlasting.
A full moon casting
a purple veil enshrouding all. I
perambulate, somnambulant.
A solace piercing time I see...
a string of white lights.

Forever walking through December.
Forever longing for a sign of life,
a bringer of light.
Forever wandering together
a world of violets.

If only for one night,
if only for one night,
if only for one night remember.
If only for one night,
if only for one night,
if only for tonight together.'

Forever walking through December.
Forever longing for a sign of life,
a bringer of light.
Forever wandering together

Forever walking through December.
Forever longing for a sign of life,
a bringer of light.
Forever wandering together
A world of violets

Hope unknown
Sometimes just waking is surreal
I pass right through the nameless ones
I know that hope's unknown
Sometimes the water feels so real
As I walk through it fills my lungs
My god I'm drowning

This day never seems to end
(this pain never)
This pain never seems to
This rage I can not let go

I hear them calling
I feel them gnawing out holes,
Holes through flawless souls.
I hear them calling
I feel them gnawing out holes,
Holes through all the flawless souls.

So alone
Sometimes I swear that I can hear
The taunting of the voiceless ones
I fear that I alone
Fear those who finally ceased to feel
That they're alone inside this place
I am the misplaced

This day never seems to end
(this pain never)
This day never seems to end
This rage I can not let go
I hear them calling
I feel them gnawing out holes
Holes through flawless souls
I hear them calling
I feel them gnawing out holes
Holes through all the flawless souls

Now every face, it looks familiar
Then every face would melt away until
Now everyone, do you know I know your deception?

I hear them calling
I feel them gnawing out holes
Holes through flawless souls
I hear them calling
I feel them gnawing out holes
Holes through all the flawless souls

as the cries start to penetrate the still air,
this day we celebrate.
the wait now ends.

from four corners smoke plumes into a reddened sky.
in the face of lantern light, tonight
my destiny lies.

this day so hallowed,
this day so hallowed.
from here to forever its will i will follow.
this day so hallowed,
this day so hallowed.
tonight will come to life.

deadened branches stirred by the whispers in the wind.
fall children fill the street at dusk,
at last,
it all will begin.

Now! Peel the skin back from the flesh.
Steal the flesh back from the starving static minds.
From nature we must stray, to clarity we'll climb.
Deadly impulse seems so natural,
just look beyond it and we'll find (we will find)
a brand new evolution, here begins a brand new line.
And in the distance there's a gathering,
that no longer seems so far away.
Pushed to our knees so let us pray,
and all together we'll bring the real rain.
Watch all that's wasted wash away,
so let it come. Our will be done.
Stature retrieved, regain our form.
Break free from instinct that's left us all confined.
From nature we must stray to clarity we'll climb.
Tradition ingrained, now impermissible.
Now comes a call for all to find (we will find)
a brand new evolution. Here begins a brand new line.
I can't help but fear, look to my species and tremble,
to think that God is just...
And in the distance there's a gathering
that no longer seems so far away.

Let's admire the pattern forming.
Murderous filigree.
I'm caught in the twisting of the vine.
Go ascend with ivy, climbing.
Ignore and leave for me the headstone crumbling behind.

(Wooahhh)
I can't help my laughter as she cries.
My soul brings tears to angelic eyes.
(Wooahh)

Let's amend the classic story, close it so beautifully,
I'll let animosity unwind.
Steal away the darkened pages, hidden so shamefully.
I'll still feel the violence of the lines.

(Wooahh)
I can't stand my laughter as they cry.
My soul brings tears to angelic eyes.
And miles away my mother cries.
Omnipotence, nurturing malevolence.

Go.

Woahoo

(Wooahh)
I can't stand my laughter as they cry.
My soul brings tears to angelic eyes.
And miles away my mother cries.
Omnipotence, nurturing malevolence.

WooahhH

An invitation excluding no one,
So you walk right in and destroy the fucking place.
You've lost your right to be part of my family.
The family that welcomed you, you joined, and left in disgrace.
Your flag was flaming (was flaming), your flag was flaming before it ever started flying.
Your flag was burning, was burning down everyone in true salute.
Sense of commitment. A sense of pride.
I heard you say that we shared a destiny.
Now it is plain to see you've got no sense at all.
The name that once honored you disgraced and made a mockery.
Your flag was flaming (was flaming), your flag was flaming before it ever started flying.
Your flag was burning, was burning down everyone in true salute.
I could always see... I could always see the smoke from miles away.
I could always see the weakness in your eyes.
Far away I feel the lies while the sky is burning.
Your flag was flaming (was flaming), your flag was flaming before it ever started flying.
Your flag was burning, was burning down everyone in true salute.
You will always be unwanted... unwanted.
You will always be unwanted... unwanted... unwanted.

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 forseen 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 wanting to feel nothing
I've never wanted to cease to exist
Just disappear

Fear memories are all that lie ahead (memories dull my senses)
Never have I felt so lost
Fear tragedies is all that lies ahead (memories dull my senses)
Never have I felt so dead

Once felt so warm
Now I'm fucking freezing
I am the once embraced, abandoned one
I raised my eyes up to the light in hopes of finding healing
No relief was mine, I was burnt by the sun

Fear memories are all that lie ahead (memories dull my senses)
Never have I felt so lost
Fear tragedies is all that lies ahead (memories dull my senses)
Never have I felt so dead

I feel so lost

Fear memories are all that lie ahead (memories dull my senses)
Never have I felt so lost
Fear tragedies is all that lies ahead (memories dull my senses)
Never have I felt so dead
Fear memories are all that lie ahead (memories dull my senses)
Never have I felt so lost
Fear tragedies is all that lies ahead (memories dull my senses)
Never have I felt so

Can you feel the pulse?
Can you feel the heat rising from below?
Can you feel the energy?
It's 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
(hey hey hey hey whoa) Oh and I say, I'll give you nothing but a mirthless laugh (whoa)

Can you see the signs?
Can you sense the changing of the winds?
Can you sense the stillness in the air?
Calm will remain, oh so shortly

But I'll wait.... I'll wait.... till the seasons change
I'll wait.... I'll wait.... till the fall comes
(hey hey hey hey whoa) Oh and I say, I'll give you nothing but a mirthless laugh(whoa)
And i'll say...

Gonna take you by...
Gonna take you by...
Gonna take you by surprise as it rises

(hey hey hey hey whoa) Oh and I say, I'll give you nothing but a mirthless laugh (whoa)
And i'll say (whoa Whoa) gonna take you by suprise (whoa whoa)

no trust
can be given freely , it's a valuable commodity
but obviously this is something you
never learned
faith is something that you put in friends and
had i excess morals to lend
i'd let you borrow them but my trust you haven't earned!

we've got a problem
first of all: there is no we, i'm detached from you completely
i've got a problem: you tell lies to my friends and think it won't get back to me

no bond
could ever seem to make a stable fit in our relationship
but one thing that never comes between us
is honesty
when you've got something to say you always seem to find away
to avoid the truth or instead you avoid me!

we've got a problem: first of all there is no we, i'm detached from you completely
i've got a problem: you tell lies to my friends and think it won't get back to me

STRAIGHT UP
Is how you'll see me stand,
But it is never in your plans,
To be straight forward,
So instead, you use
DECEIT.
Now I would like to take apart,
What you've been breaking from the start.
I'll remain intact,
I won't be broken in defeat.

We've got a problem?
First of all there is no "we",
I'm detached from you completely.
I've got a problem.
You tell lies to my friends
And think it won't get back to me....

NO TRUST!

I may be ten years old but I still know what's up
I wear my Cramps shirt almost every single day
I want to sag my pants
I want to pogo dance
But mom won't let me so I might just run away

I - I wanna ride my skate
I wanna stay out late
I wanna mohawk but mom won't let me get one
I - I wanna go to shows
Don't wanna pierce my nose
I wanna mohawk but mom won't let me get one

I may be in fourth grade but I know what's going on
I listen to the Misfits every single day
Don't want to take a nap
I want a TV tat
But mom won't let me so I might just disobey

I - I wanna ride my skate
I wanna stay out late
I wanna mohawk but mom won't let me get one
I - I wanna go to shows
Don't wanna pierce my nose
I wanna mohawk but mom won't let me get one

What was it I was thinking,
or was I even thinking at all?
When I think of what I thought back then,
then I'm ashamed; and I'm appalled
that I gave up all I ever was so easily.
Living your life is not for me.

I won't be sedated, I won't be sedated!
Give me a little taste and I know I won't want more.
I won't be sedated, stability is overrated.
Give me the disorder I adore.

What was it you were thinking,
or were you even thinking at all?
When I think of what you thought of me,
I take offense; and I'm appalled
that you could discount all I love so easily.
Living our life is not for me.

(x2)
I won't be sedated, I won't be sedated!
Give me a little taste and I know I won't want more.
I won't be sedated, stability is overrated.
Give me the disorder I adore.

I can't be a part,
Be a part,
I can't be a part.
I can't be a part,
Be a part of your modern world.
I've gotta be apart,
Be apart,
Gotta be apart.
I've gotta be apart.
I can't grasp the values that you hold.

Bowling is my life and it has always been my dream
to be a member of the local bowling team, although; but I'm not very good.
The guys won't accept me,
I guess I try the girls team and lose a part of my anatomy

Then balls will roll.
I think I want to be...
Balls will roll, I think it's time, it's time for me to be a girl.

It's a very big decision, it's going to change my life.
I'll have to make all new friends, I 'm gonna lose my wife.
But that's okay with me.
There's something in my soul.
It doesn't matter who's the better man, it the one who gets to bowl.

Then balls will roll.
I think I want to be...
Balls will roll, I think it's time, it's time for me to be a girl.

I 've made my decision , I'm gonna make the change.
There will be rolling balls, I'm gonna play my game.
It's gonna be so great.
It's gonna be the best, besides, I've always told myself I look good in a dress.
I'm gonna cut'em off, I'm gonna cut'em off, I'm gonna cut'em off.
I'll never have to cough.
No don’t stop keep going.
Now I've made my change and I've fulfilled my dream.
I'm now a member of the women's bowling team.
I hope I throw a strike, 'cause I'll never score again.
My first game is tomorrow, I will go to play and then...

Then balls will roll.
I think I want to be...
Balls will roll, I think it's time, it's time for me to be… a girl…

You don't know who I am so,
you can not get close to me and I don't know who you are,
so just leave me alone.
I know you can't believe the anxiety you're causing me
and I know you can't believe your fake compassion I don't need.

Get away from me,
You're standing too close.
Keep your hands off of me.
Keep away from me,
Just leave me alone, who said you could touch me anyway?

Don't try to rub my shoulders and don't try to hold my hand.
Don't try to give me a fucking hug.
You crawl on me as if I were your very best of friends.
I don't even know your name.

Get away from me
You're standing too close.
Keep your hands off of me.
Keep away from me
Just leave me alone, who said you could touch me anyway?

2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. ah!
