1.FROM OUT OF NOWHERE

        Tossed into my mind, stirring the calm
        You splash me with beauty and pull me down
        You come from out of nowhere
        My glance turns to a stare
        Obsession rules me-I'm yours from the start
        I know you see me-Our eyes interlock
        You come from out of nowhere
        My glance turns to a stare
        One minute here and one minute there
        Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
        One minute here and one minute there
        And then you wave good-bye...
        Sifting to the bottom, every day for two
        All energy funnels, all becomes you
        You come from out of nowhere
        My glance turns to a stare
        One minute here and one minute there
        Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
        One minute here and one minute there
        And it hurts inside
        One minute here and one minute there
        And then you wave good-bye...

2.EPIC

        Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
        If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
        You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
        And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
        It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
        It's so groovy, it's outta sight
        You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
        But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet
        You want it all but you can't have it
        It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
        So you lay down on it and you do it some more
        You've got to share it, so you dare it
        Then you bare it and you tear it
        You want it all but you can't have it
        It's in your face but you can't grab it
        It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
        It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
        It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
        It's sad it happened and it's a shame
        You want it all but you can't have it
        It's in your face but you can't grab it
        What is it?
        It's it
        What is it?...

3.FALLING TO PIECES

        Back and forth, I sway with the wind
        Resolution slips away again
        Right through my fingers, back into my heart
        Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark
        Sometimes I think I'm blind
        Or I may be just paralyzed
        Because the plot thickens every day
        And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin' away
        But I know, there's a picture beneath
        Indecision clouds my vision
        No one listens...
        Because I'm somewhere in between
        My love and my agony
        You see, I'm somewhere in between
        My life is falling to pieces
        Somebody put me together
        Layin' face down on the ground
        My fingers in my ears to block the sound
        My eyes shut tight to avoid the sight
        Anticipating the end, losing the will to fight
        Droplets of "yes" and "no"
        In an ocean of "maybe"
        From the bottom, it looks like a steep incline
        From the top, another downhill slope of mine
        But I know, the equilibrium's there
        Indecision clouds my vision
        No one listens
        Because I'm somewhere in between
        My love and my agony
        You see, I'm somewhere in between
        My life is falling to pieces
        Somebody put me together

4.SURPRISE! YOU'RE DEAD!

        Surprise! you're dead!
        Ha ha! open your eyes
        See the world as it used to be when you used to be in it
        When you were alive and when you were in love
        And when I took it from you!
        It's not over yet
        You don't remember?
        I won't let you forget
        The hatred I bestowed
        Upon your neck with a fatal blow
        From my teeth and my tongue
        I've drank and swallowed, but it's just begun
        Now you are mine
        I'll keep killing you until the end of time
        Surprise! you're dead!
        Guess what?
        It never ends...
        The pain, the torment and torture, profanity
        Nausea, suffering, perversion, calamity
        You can't get away

5.ZOMBIE EATERS

        You're everything
        That's why I cling to you
        When I emerge
        My thoughts converge to you
        To you
        The world is so small
        Compared to you
        And everybody's wrong
        Compared to you
        To you
        I begin to see through your eyes
        All the former mysteries are no surprise
        So now, you listen
        Cuz I'm omniscient
        Hey look at me lady
        I'm just a little baby
        You're lucky to have me
        I'm cute and sweet as candy
        As charming as a fable
        I'm innocent and disabled
        So hug me and kiss me
        Then wipe my butt and piss me
        I hope you never leave
        Cuz who would hear me scream?
        Nobody understands
        Except the toys in my hands
        So now you listen
        Cuz I'm omniscient
        Hey look at me lady
        I'm just a little baby
        If I smile, then you smile
        Then I'll get mad for awhile
        I melt in your mouth
        And in your hands whenever I can
        But I really do nothing
        Except kickin' and fussin'
        I like to make a mess
        I laugh at your distress
        I sit all day in my crib
        Absorbing all you give
        I'm helpless
        I'm flawless
        I'm a machine
        Give me, I need my toys...
        Keep me hot
        Keep me strong
        Keep me everlong
        So now you listen
        Cuz I'm omniscient

6.THE REAL THING

        I know the feeling
        It is the real thing
        The essence of the truth
        The perfect moment
        That golden moment
        I know you feel it too
        I know the feeling
        It is the real thing
        You can't refuse the embrace...
        It's like the pattern below the skin
        You gotta reach out and pull it all in
        And you feel like you're too close
        So you swallow another dose
        The pinnacle of happiness
        Filling up your soul
        You don't think you can take any more
        You never wanna let go
        To touch the roots of experience
        The most basic ingredients
        To see the unseen glitter of life
        And feel the dirt, grief, anger and strife
        Cherish the certainly of now
        It kills you a bit at a time
        Cradle the inspiration
        It will leave you writhing on the floor...
        This is so unreal, what I feel
        This nourishment, life is bent
        Into a shape I can hold
        A twist of fate, all my own
        Just grit your teeth, make no sound
        Take a step away and look around
        Just clench your fist and close your eyes
        Look deep inside, hypnotize
        The whisper is but a shout
        That's what it is all about
        Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray
        You will never let it slip away
        Like the sacred song that someone sings through you
        Like the flesh so warm that the thorn sticks into
        Like the dream you know one day will come to life
        Try to hold on just a little longer, stronger
        It's the jewel of victory
        The chasm of misery
        And once you have bitten the core
        You will always know the flavor
        The split second of divinity
        You drink up the sky
        All of heaven is in your arms
        You know the reason why
        It's right there, all by itself
        And what you are, there is nothing else
        You're growing a life within a life
        The lips of wonder kiss you inside
        And when it's over the feeling remains
        It all comes down to this
        The smoke clears, I see what it is
        That made me feel this way...
        This is so unreal, what I feel
        Flood, sell your soul, feel the blood
        Pump through your veins, can't explain
        The element that's everything
        Just clench your fist and close your eyes
        Look deep inside, hypnotize
        Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray
        You will never let it slip away
        Like the echoes of your childhood laughter, ever after
        Like the first time love urged you to take it's guidance, in silence
        Like your heartbeat when you realize you're dying, but you're trying
        Like the way you cry for a happy ending, ending...
        I know

7.UNDERWATER LOVE

        Looking down into the water
        It's hard to make out your face
        If our love is drowning, then why
        Do I feel so out of place?
        Bubbling up to the surface
        Are you getting a breath of fresh air?
        Forever longing to make you mine
        But I can't escape your stare...
        Liquid seeps into your lungs
        But your eyes look so serene
        It's wonderful how the surface ripples
        But you're perfect, and I cannot breathe
        Forever longing to make you mine
        But I can't escape your stare...
        Hold me closer, keep me near
        My underwater love
        Hold me closer, keep me near
        I'll never get enough
        Touch me from below
        I'll never let you go
        But I can't escape

8.THE MORNING AFTER

        Awakened by the sun light
        Victimized by last night
        Memories flashin' through my head
        Was I just born or am I dead?
        Yesterday's forgotten, the morning after
        I can taste you, I can hear your laughter
        Fading in the distance
        Recollections drifting
        Bloodstains on my tattered clothes
        Each minute the fear grows
        If I could just lay down to rest
        I'm tired of searching for myself
        If I am dead, how can I feel such love?
        If I am dead, why am I dreaming?
        If I am dead, where do I go from here?
        If I am dead, why does this pain feel so good?
        Is this my blood dried upon my face?
        Or is it the love of someone else?
        It tastes so sweet, just like you used to
        So rescue me my love, splice us together
        I remember loving you so much
        But where are you and where's your fatal touch?
        When I closed my eyes, was it my siesta?
        Did I encounter a darkness stronger than sleep?
        I am thirsty for my sleep
        There are no answers anyway...

10.WAR PIGS

        Generals gathered in their masses
        Just like witches at black masses
        Evil minds that plot destruction
        Sorcerers of death's construction
        In the fields are bodies burning
        As the war machine keeps turning
        Death and hatred to mankind
        Poisoning their brainwashed minds, Oh Lord yeah

        Politicians hide themselves away
        They only started the war
        Why should they go out to fight
        They leave that all to the poor

        Time will tell on their power minds
        Making war just for fun
        Treating people just like pawns in chess
        Wait til the judgement day comes

        Now in darkness world stops turning
        As you hear the bodies burning
        No more warpigs have the power
        And as God has struck the hour
        Day of judgement, God is calling
        On their knees the warpigs crawling
        Begging mercy for their sins
        Satan laughing spreads his wings, Oh Lord yeah


11.EDGE OF THE WORLD

        Come here, my love
        I'll tell you a secret
        Come closer, now
        I want you to believe it
        I'll tell you all the things
        You want to hear
        Don't worry, baby
        There's nothing to fear
        Hey, little girl
        Would you like some candy?
        Look into my eyes
        I've seen it all
        Hand in hand
        Together we fall
        We'll sing and dance
        And we'll find romance
        And we'll stroll to the edge of the world
        Come sit right down
        Lay your head on my shoulder
        It's not the point
        That I'm forty years older
        You can trust me
        I'm no criminal
        But I'd kill my mother
        To be with you
        We'll sing and dance
        And we'll find romance
        And we'll stroll to the edge of the world
        Give me a smile
        Let me see those pearlies
        I'll do anything
        For the little girlies...
