They pull our strings
The animals
They blind, they breed the hate
Under their wing
We're scientists
We swallow what they fake

For all you lonely boys
I will be president
In all you sons of men
I can be accident

Most fall in line
They do the dance
And salute the safest thing
Bought with their lives
Cry and socialize
And throw all the beauty away

For all you lonely boys
I will be president
In all you sons of men
I can be accident

. . .


Lay back
For me.
You are just exactly what I need
In this cold town.

Lay back
For me.
The three of us in circus
And in liberty
It's been too long.

So throw your guilt religion
To the liars and the weak,
This is the politics and war
Of ecstasy.

And all the nonsense of that vision
That is failing every test;
It's the comedy and death
Of your senses.

The alternative to real world
Is just time for me and a fantasy
Be blind to myself;
To idolize.

The alternative to real world
Is just time for me and a fantasy.
I'm blind to myself
And idolize.

You work
So deep.
Astonished and in rapture
I can barely speak.
These are hard times.

Hormones
In key;
A slow whispered wet confession
From our body heat.
There's no return.

The alternative to real world
Is just time for me and a fantasy
Be blind to myself;
To idolize.

The alternative to real world
Is just time for me and a fantasy.
I'm blind to myself
And idolize.

I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
The truth and dare of the drug for the first time
I click my heels and dance with the heat rise
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife

I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
The truth and dare of the drug from the baseline
The desire that the voodoo gives to a weak mind
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife

I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
The truth and dare of the drug for the first time
I click my heels and dance with the heat rise
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife

I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
The truth and dare of the drug from the baseline
The desire that the voodoo gives to a weak mind
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife

I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
The truth and dare of the drug for the first time
I click my heels and dance with the heat rise
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife

Who put the mess in your head?
Filtering the sense of all your could have said
I stole the words from your mouth
So twisted in contagion, and reaching out

If this is the lullaby, then
Why am I not sleeping easy?
If you leave me alone, I will come home
Dragging my tails behind me

Sweetheart, don't hang me out to dry
When nothing is left
There is always us
When nothing is left
There is always us

If I could sing you to sleep
Lay you down and pray that your soul to keep
I would be all that you need
Wider eyes oblivious to everything

If this is the lullaby, then
Why am I not sleeping easy?
If you leave me alone, I will come home
Dragging my tails behind me

Sweetheart, don't hang me out to dry
When nothing is left
There is always us
When nothing is left
There is always us
When nothing is left
There is always us
When nothing is left
There is always us

Her mother said that she couldn't love
The physical way a woman should
Then where else could she go?
Where the sisters and the fathers can't save her soul

Send them in, see them on
She can't find a lover, she'll fashion one
Imaginary men
Like the burned out poets in the hinterland

The phoenix says,
The devil says,
The serpent says,
The siren says,
Why use the word, when the word it means to believe?
Why use the word, when the word it means to believe?

Whyyy ?...

The hourglass sees what shelf life does
She asked, exactly tell me
"what is love but grieving life alone?"
Just the words from prophets and religious shows

Imagine hurt, imagine tears
She opened up until she disappeared
Vanished, hand in hand,
With all the long-lost children locked in Neverland

The phoenix says,
The devil says,
The serpent says,
The siren says,
Why use the word, when the word it means to believe?
Why use the word, when the word it means to believe?

The phoenix says
The devil says
The serpent says
The siren says

Oh, the phoenix says
- Burn for me
The devil says
- Lie for me
The serpent says
- Beg for me
The siren says
- Die for me

Oh, the phoenix says
- Burn for me
The devil says
- Lie for me
The serpent says
- Beg for me
The siren says
- Die for me

They know attention to obedience
Their kicks and wishes fix and forgotten for my self defence
We all want to fuck ourselves and rape the world
So the odds of the cops will prevail
And vanity, not bored, not love

Oh no, they can't leave it alone
Oh no, we can't leave it alone

Because a negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time

Show a man the mix of the alternative
It's all ammunition for the gender bend and the bedroom twist
They say that the fashion's just not feminist
But the sweet and the turn-on sits in the laps of the girls with the balls and the hits

Oh no, they can't leave it alone
Oh no, we can't leave it alone

Because the negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time
The negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time

Sex for a lifetime
Sex for a lifetime
Sex for a lifetime

. . .


From the fall I hold the word conviction
And the thrill to the swell is in your golden touch
But the flesh is weak and without reason
So I slave to your beat and soul for all time

God give a little love
Bring me back a dog in the next life
God give a little love
Wanna be a dog in the next life

When you strike with soul and quick precision
I'm snagged by a nervous twitch and cold desire
But they say the wretched get their kingdom
Breathe on, it's my time, let's go, we all die

God give a little love
Bring me back a dog in the next life
God give a little love
Wanna be a dog in the next life

The trouble is me, you
The trouble is me, you
Oh, the trouble is me, you
The trouble is me, you

God give a little love
Bring me back a dog in the next life
God give a little love
Wanna be a dog in the next life

. . .


You have been left alone
The creature of innocence
You lie for what you're worth
And struggle with your confidence

And when your devil complains
And tears you up, to start again
And when you're lying on the stage
And nothing works, just living hurts

Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion
Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion

And so we meet alone
Two players in a puppet show
Don't cry for audience
There's noone that can take you home

And when your devil complains
And tears you up, to start again
And when you're lying on the stage
And nothing works, just living hurts

Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion
Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion
Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion

Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion
Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion

. . .


And if you're hurting
I will replace the noise with silence instead
Flushing out your head

If you like it violent
We can play rough and tumble
Fall into bed
And I won't breed for you can recover

When you're in pieces
Just follow the echo of my voice
It's okay
Tune into that frequency

Don't fight your reflex
Embrace the instinct
You can feel your way
Through the bed that we face in the end

'cause it breaks my heart
That we live this way
I know people need love
'cause them people never play the game
And we talk the talk
We communicate
The people need love
Those people never play the game

Pleasure for pleasure
It eases consequence
And love for a fall
But I know you love to take a risk

The past is weakness
Don't beg the question when the answer is war
There are moments when I'm overcomed

'cause it breaks my heart
That we live this way
I know people need love
'cause them people never play the game
And we talk the talk
We communicate
Them people need love
Those people never play the game

And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
I'm afraid to need love..

. . .


you're living but you've got no soul
you captivate but you hold no weight at all
so watch as I start to smile

your dumber than you think you're deep
you aggravate but you always stop to speak
so watch as I start to smile

after every party I die
after every party I die

the morning breaks us up inside
payback, execution, killing time
so watch as I start to smile

there's something that you think you need
trying your best to sleep at cocaine speed
so watch as I start to smile

after every party I die (die, after every party)
after every party I die (die, after every party)

you're living but you've got no soul
you captivate but you hold no weight at all
so watch as I start to smile

smile, smile, smile, smile
smile, smile, smile, smile
smile, smile, smile, smile

after every party I die (die, after every party)
after every party I die (die, after every party)
after every party I die (die, after every party)
after every party I die (die, after every party)
I die after every party
I die after every party

. . .


When the joys of living just leave you cold
Frozen from the failing mess you made your own
And if you want an ending to your screenplay life
Well, here's the consolation that will change your heart and mind

All the glitz messiahs just pass the time
A cure for no real sickness, cross your hopes and die
Your supermarket Jesus comes with smiles and lies
Where justice he delays is always justice he denies

This will make you love again
This will make you love again
This will make you love again
This will make you love again

And now you save love again
To feel the rays, love again
The sweet delays love again
Shoot the breeze

Early Thursday mornings, wipe away the flies
The crossfire fight for action in between your thighs
Every touch is sacred when they leave the room
If I have to switch the lights off, I wanna switch them off with you

This will make you love again
This will make you love again
This will make you love again
This will make you love again

And now you save love again
To feel the rays, love again
The sweet delays love again
To shoot the breeze, love again
