Catch a Fallen Star

And this town is a potpourri of disease
Can you smell the herpes from the scum-sucking fucks
That hang around the same suckers each mid-night
You were being your photo
And spouting your promo
Flicking back your limp whip
That's as limp as your dick
Irritating your greedy cross-eyed sight
Oh Christ and you're greasing up now
To the creepy old cow
That would sell out your mother and besides
Your sell-out assured
You were always a whore
And you've always been taken for long rides
At the smell of the bride
You go jelly inside
As you step up the gold ladder to big time
Kick them on the way up, kick you on the way down
And you'll need them all again in good time
Your friend is the "yes"-man
Who sits by your side
With his hand in your pocket all the time
And he's messing your head
Tries to get you in bed
Well it's all masturbation of a kind

What you earn, heaven knows
It goes straight up your nose
And you strangle your health in the end
And you're blinded by bull
And you've really been full
And it's driving you straight round the bend
And you're told that a smile is so worth your while
Its what "yes"-men call diplomacy
It'll get you the goal
But while losing the soul
You're forgetting the quality
And you heave on your drink
As you're starting to think
That all that shines may not be lamè
But a cheap substitute
That'll give you the boot
You're just a stiff at a funeral party
Where you slouch on the bar
With the arm in the beer
Wearing yesterday's mascara today
And it runs when you cry about living a lie
And the lie's starting to fade away
Fade away

Repeat...
Fade away
...till fade away

The Animal in You

I noticed your eyes today, avoiding me today
You humor me, smile, try to keep me at bay
I know you mean well
Or so you justify by the words
You are attempting to say
And what have you ever done for me?
What have you ever done for me?

Weeks between love are so long and cool
Keeping me together is using up the fuel
The fire is eating up the furnace inside
I use up the last flames loving you
Your love is tender when it's cruel
Your love is my door to the unreal
Your love is the key, feel, the way I feel
The way I feel, the way I feel, the way I...
What have you ever done for me?
What have you ever done for me?

When you smash up my room
When you smash up my room
When you twist my arm
When you twist my arm
Always testing, trying, testing
Trying to find out if I'm lying, you shout
What have you ever done for me? (x4)
Your love is tender when it's treating me cruel
Flashing around the animal in you
What have you ever done for me?
What the hell have you ever done for me?
Tell me you love me, it makes me cry
All my nerve endings curl up and die

And that's no way to act for a boy (x2)
Not another twisted love (x4)
What have you ever done for me? (x5)
Not another twisted love (x4)
Dream of a million tortures
And they'd all be too good for you

In My Room

In my room
Where every night is the same
I play a dangerous game
I keep pretending she's late
And I sit and I wait

Over there is the picture we took
When I made her my bride
Over there is the chair where I held her
Whenever she cried
Over there by the window the flowers she left
Have all died

Repeat chorus

All alone, in my room
All alone...
...in my room

All alone, all alone, in my room

First Time

(Almond)
Looking down into your acid eyes
I see a thousand wild nights
Rubbing your hand in the softest way
Across your necklace of bites
The streets are deserted, and so is your mind
We're so sick of the sight of each other
We've done this many times
Remember way back when
We were so shy and naive
Remember on the day you
Lost your youth upon the beach
And the demon kills an angel
As you came over the bed
So this is the big deal
The ultimate feeling
They claim in those books you read
The feeling of skin against skin
As you feel you slide inside
And you shut your eyes in a wild relief
As you watch innocence die
Do you watch innocence die?

Looking down into your acid eyes
I see a thousand wild nights
Rubbing your hand in the softest way
Across your necklace of bites
The streets are deserted, and so is your mind
Wondering why we never can relive
Our very first time
Wondering why we never can relive
Our very first time
Wondering why we never can relive
Our very first time
Our very first time

(Your Love is a) Lesion

(Almond)

With my limbs tied behind my back
You forced me to love you
Down on my knees,I lied
My real self stays locked safe from you
My ears always ringing
And the tears always brimming
It's so hard to keep you at bay
Maybe I won't bother today

Blood smeared across my mouth
This love leaves me lost without you
But when will we tire of disease and desire?
And I'll turn around and I'll destroy you
But your love leaves a lesion
And it gives me a reason
It's so hard to keep you at bay
Maybe I won't bother today

The touch of the bruises
The pain that amuses

Repeat...
My hand always shielding my eyes
...until fade

My Former Self

(Hogan/Almond)
Remember me
I was the boy with the angel's eyes
And the blush in surprise
When you hold my hand in full view
Now I'm so wrecked that my eyes bleed
Watch me recede
Nails curl back
From the quick as they
Curl with my lips
Standing limp in the pool of the light
So callous and cruel
Bones are piercing me through
And the shadow of you
Is the shadow of my former self
A quick recollection and smile for old times
Sometimes I feel like I'm being unkind
Skintight yet sallow
Saddened by the shallow
Reaching for the glow
At the end of the tunnel
Somewhere up the ladder stands
I shout as the car glides
Over the kerb to the wall
And the hiss of the steam is the siren
Drawing me onto the rocks
Always as ever in no man's land
With my driver slumped over my wheel

Once Was

(Venomettes/Almond)
Dancing
The little lights are dancing
And the clock on the wall is announcing another day
I keep hearing things you used to say
The way
And your mouth so dry
As you fake the kiss
Playing the part you do best you can
Lying there naked across the sheets
Like a lizard in the sand
Becoming me and failing to see
The little girl you've become
And you fall as you slink across the room
Your lips parted in a kiss
Parading your flesh in the way you know best
Like a broken seductress
I'm casting my mind back to my fourteenth year
When I learnt about what we call the pleasure of love
And it was new to me then
And a wave of sadness shivers my skin
As I think about what can never be felt again
As I think about what never can be felt again

Black Heart

(Hogan/Almond)
Playing
With little pictures that my mind sends
Counting the moments 'til my world ends
All I remembered are the bad times
And its chewing away at my insides

Chorus

When you looked that way
Oh I knew you wanted to hurt
You killed all of my dreams
With your black, black heart

Night creeps
Its wicked way just like a spider
Stealing, the feelings that hide
Black heart and wild
You were so like an angry child

Repeat chorus

Pushing
Your icy fingers always crushing
Your jealous mind so disapproving
You laughed at all my ideas
And then purged my fears

Repeat chorus

Leave me alone
Stop pushing at me
You got your revenge
For the love that I lent
You're destroying my mind
You're destroying my soul
Black heart

Narcisus

(Sherlock/Almond)
In the heaven of your bedroom
Petals breaking from your fingers
Narcisus to a flower
The tips pass through the brittle skin
Disturb the tranquil days you swing
But nothing really matters much
You forgot how to feel, like people feel
Your lips are sealed
You whisper
Never know me, never need me
Trapped like a cat in the branch of the tree
But you hold yourself tight
In the cold empty bed
Just you and yourself and your fist for a friend
Sleep secluded, deep down in your head
Dream lover, I don't want to dream alone

Vision

(Peter Hamill)
I have a vision of you
Locked inside my head
It creeps upon my mind
And warms me in my bed
A vision shimmering, shifting
Moving in false firelight
A vision of a vision
Protecting me from fear at night
As the seasons rolled on
And my love stayed strong

I dont know where you end
And where it is that I begin
I simply open my mind
And the memories flood on in
I remember waking up
With your arms around me
I remember losing myself
And finding that you'd found me
And the seasons rolled on
And my love stayed strong

Be my child, be my lover
Swallow me up in your fire glow
Take my tongue, Take my torment
Take my hand and don't let go

Chorus

Let me live in your life
For you make it all seem to matter
Let me die in your arms
So the vision will never shatter

And the seasons rolled on
And my love stayed strong
The seasons rolled on
My love stayed strong

My love stayed strong
And my love stayed strong

Repeat chorus

Torment

(Almond/Severin)
Your smile is my suffering
Your lies are needles in my skin
This torment that I'm tied within
Shows me love can't be an empty thing
This ordeal, the heartache makes me love you more and more
Its the sorrow I'm loving you for
The time burning me inside
The kiss that keeps me alive
I'd die a million deaths just to know
That you're thinking of me
The knife in the heart twisting and turning in me
When you touch me euphoria takes hold of my mind
Breathing fire into emotions that die
Emotions that die

Chorus

Torment me and I'll love you more and more and more
Torment me and I'll love you more and more and more and more
Torment me, torment me, torment me
(Love is an empty thing)

Something you can't have
Makes you want it more and more
Torment me, torment me
Oh come on, torment me

Something you can't have
Makes you want it more and more
Beat me and burn me
And beat me and bite me
And beat me and burn me
And I'll love you more, and more, and more
And more and more and more
