I REACH RIGHT THROUGH THE GLASS
I’M LOOKING FOR A WAY AROUND THIS PARADISE
QUICKLY, I’M MOVING FAST
FINDING MY WAY AROUND THIS STATE OF SANITY
MACHINE GUNS IN MY MIND
LOCKED AND LOADED WITH THE PICTURES IN MY HEART
STONE DEAF AND COLOR BLIND
EYES SWOLLEN, EMOTIONS TORN APART
THE KILLER OPENS HIS EYES
PROGRAMMED, MUCH BETTER BY DESIGN
NEW MODEL, QUIET AND CONFINED
SILENTLY SCREAMING IN HIS MIND
THE KILLER WALKS OUTSIDE
BREATHES IN THE AIR, CHOKES ON SUNSHINE
HE IS A CHEMICAL WARRIOR
ARMED AND DANGEROUS, A MERCENARY BY DESIGN
SOUL ASSASSIN, WITH A CURE FOR EVERYTHING
HEARTLESS AND PROGRAMMED TO FIND
THE LOWEST DEPTHS OF EVERY BEING
INTO THE CHASM HE STARES
SO SURE YET SO UNAWARE
HE’D NEVER DO THIS ON HIS OWN
SLOWLY HE PICKS UP THE PHONE
SO SCARED AND OUT ON HIS OWN
LEFT NOW TO HANG BY THIS THREAD
THIS MAN IS DEAD
THE KILLER CLOSES HIS EYES
SELF DESTRUCTED BY DESIGN
OLD MODEL LEFT BEHIND TO DIE
CRUSHED BY THE HAIL STONES IN HIS MIND
THE KILLER GOES DOWN FINE
BENEATH THE EARTH WITH NO SUNSHINE
HE IS A CHEMICAL WARRIOR

BLAME IT ON WHAT YOU WILL
CHOKED ON LIFE’S BITTER PILL
BITCHIN’ AND MOANIN’ WON’T PAY THE BILLS
I KNOW IT KILLS
CONTEMPLATE ALL THE TIMES
DROWN YOURSELF IN BITTER RHYMES
CAREFUL, YOU’RE ON THE LINE
I’M ON THE LINE
WOULD YA HELP ME FEEL THE RAIN
DIGGIN’ A SHALLOW GRAVE
CANCELLED ALL THAT YA GAVE
HELP ME, NO, NOT TODAY
MY HEART, IT WAITS
WOULD YA HELP ME FEEL THE RAIN
CHOKING ON TIME
CUT MYSELF ON SUNSHINE
ALWAYS A DOLLAR FOR A DIME
HELP ME FEEL IT
YEAH, HELP ME FEEL THE RAIN

FARTHER AND FARTHER WE FALL
IS IT SO HARD TO LET GO AFTER ALL
I CAN'T SEE THROUGH YOUIR VEILED SKIES
BABY, IN YOUR ARMS I'M PARALYZED
FARTHER AND FARTHER WE FALL
SLOWER AND SLOWER AOART WE DRAW
I CAN'T BREATHE BURIED UNDER YOUR EYES
I CAN'T STAND TO ADMIT THIS LOVE I CAN'T DISGUISE
EVER WONDER HOW WE CAME THIS FAR WITHOUT BEING LED?
EVER WONDER HOW EVERYTHING COULD HAVE BEEN INSTEAD?

Find Yourself

WAIT BABY
SLOW DOWN BEFORE YOU GO
CONTEMPLATE
THE DAWN ACROSS THE ROAD
STAY AWHILE, CHILD
LIFE'S NOT ALL THAT YOU THINK
RECONCILE, CHILD
THE SINS THAT MAKE YOU DRINK
WHOA, WHOA
I'LL TAKE THE PAIN AWAY
BIT BY BIT
PIECE BY PIECE
I'LL HELP YOU FIND YOURSELF AGAIN
WAIT A MINUTE
WIPE THOSE TEAR STAINS FROM YOUR FACE
DRAGGED AND BROKEN
STILL, NOTHING CAN REPLACE
ALL I WANTED
BE SOMETHING TO REPLACE
THE THORNS, THE KNIVES, THE WORDS ONCE SPOKEN
THAT SOLITARY PLACE
ALL I WANTED
TO BE SOMETHING TO REPLACE
BIT BY BIT AND PIECE BY PIECE
PLEASE FIND YOURSELF AGAIN

SHE’S SASSY, OH SO CLASSY, HAS ME ON A STRING
SHE SMACKS HER LIPS AND SHE SAYS EVERY WORD I NEED
SHE RINGS HER DINNER BELL AND I’LL COME EVERY TIME
AND CAN’T RESIST THE TASTE, HER SWEETNESS SO DIVINE
OH MY LOVE. OH MY LOVE. OH MY LOVE. OH MY LOVE
SOFT SKIN AND SUPPLE LIPS, IN HER I’D GLADLY DIE
EYES LIKE A BLADE, PLEASE CUT ME DEEP JUST ONE MORE TIME
WITHIN THE DEEPEST SPIN HER MELODY I FIND
AND IN HER FLEETING KISSES, ECSTACY IS MINE
OH MY LOVE. OH MY LOVE. OH MY LOVE. OH MY LOVE
I AM NO FOOL, I SEE
SHE BREATHES HER LIFE INTO ME
LIPS MAY DECEIVE
BUT HER EYES CAN NEVER LIE
SHE’S SASSY, OH SO CLASSY, HAS ME ON A STRING
SHE SMACKS HER LIPS AND SHE SAYS EVERY WORD I NEED
SHE RINGS HER DINNER BELL AND I’LL COME EVERY TIME
AND CAN’T RESIST THE TASTE, HER SWEETNESS SO DIVINE
OH MY LOVE.
OH MY LOVE.
OH MY LOVE.
OH MY LOVE
