Mercury falling
I rise from my bed
Collect my thoughts together
I have to hold my head
It seems that she's gone
And somehow I am pinned by
The Hounds of Winter
Howling in the wind

He looked beneath his shirt today
There was a wound in his flesh so deep and wide
From the wound a lovely flower grew
From somewhere deep inside
He turned around to face his mother
To sho...
Sometimes in the light at the edge of the world
Is the ghost of a ship with it's black sail furled
And night after night she would stand on the shore
And dream of the love that she knew before

No earthly church has ever blessed our union
No state has ever granted us permission
No family bond has ever made us two
No company has ever earned commission
No debt was paid no dowry to...
Why are there women here dancing on their own?
Why is there this sadness in their eyes?
Why are the soldiers here
Their faces fixed like stone?
I can't see what it is that they dispise
Th...
Train I ride don't be slow
If your whistle can blow
Fifteen miles down the track
Tell them I'm coming back
Counting poles counting sheep
Don't be slow I won't weep
If your wheels on the...
Chase the dog star
Over the sea
Home where my true love is waiting for me
Rope the south wind
Canvas the stars
Harness the moonlight
So she can safely go
Round the Cape Horn to Valparaiso

Why - is everything so gray - is everything so strange
Is everything so thrown together by mistake?
Why - is everything contrite - is everything a plight
Is everything so insincere and out of sight...
I am a dominant gene - Live as I die
Never say forever cause forever's a lie
I can see right through you so I can ignore you
The story changes but the ending wont bore you
I tried to tell you but y...
I only wanted, only wanted just to touch you
I couldn't bear it, couldn't bear it if you leave
It doesn't matter, doesn't matter if I scare you
I only wanted, only wanted someone else's skin
To fee...
Somewhere between my tongue and cheek
I can feel the hands on me
Pulls me in so we are face to face
I don't wanna see it
Hold my head up, can't avert my eyes
Spots and rats on me, I don't wanna se...
Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hol...
This fluid feels like pain - This stoic mood is all in vain
I reach into the dark - I tear this other me apart
How many years ago - How many deaths I can't let go
My flesh is temporary - My God, ex...
HEAR ME!!
Remember all the times you bent our truth and crossed our lines?
All things considered, it was just our normal way of life
But somewhere in the middle, we got caught and dragged away
So ...
I can only hurt your case
It's written on your face
You always come to me
I won't be used, but
I - can't fight you anymore
I know I'll open up the door, oh
NO! I WON'T! I CAN'T! NOT ANYMORE!
ONE ...
Can you take away every single day
That we have given to another false prophet?
Can you give us all a reason not to fall
Before you take away another broken promise?
Show your pretty face - hide t...
Oh save us all again from a cynic's Armageddon
When your mind didn't want to break, your rusty mouth consented
I think you're all afraid - too afraid to admit pollution
Now there's no easy way t...
My face is horrid and I’m constantly slouching
My place is lower and I’m constantly crouching
I don’t believe it – I saw the man again
And he won’t hear a word I say
I have delusions so I’m con...
Got a pit in so tight – wish I never had a blast that night,
I can hear’em though the walls for me
Try to rub but they always find me
All in all, this is all I can take – when I fell it was my ...
Seed, gotta let it grow, why ya gotta watch when I let it feed?
Better look into the mirror for the face you hide away, everyday
But I don't give a fuck; I let it roll - I smoke the old
Gotta r...
