Idolise, monochrome, canonise from the cornerstones
Visions of a silent reprieve
Polarise, simpatico, galvanise, what a way to go
Voices, voices came unto me
Prophets, our saviours, they offer favours for favours
Across the plains, over acres, shut the fuck up and dance
Sent for redemption, your catatonic intention
As anhedonia mentioned, it's categorically no
This is a high, this is a low, these are the reasons, oh say it ain't so
Nevermind, in repose, side to side, so it goes
Systems of design reappear
From time to time, calm to show, what resides in our hearts below
Torn between the distant the near
Prophets, our saviours, they offer favours for favours
Across the plains, over acres, shut the fuck up and dance
Sent for redemption, your catatonic intention
As anhedonia mentioned, it's categorically no
This is a high, this is a low, these are the reasons, oh say it ain't so
Mine eyes aglow, life in a doll's house
Long gone widow, no guide of my choice
God given laws to which we are prone
Habitual, blood ties to disown
As I walk towards, over the moon
On a silver screen in a darkened room
Show me life was once before
Touch, it burns our open sores
Speak of need, regard the charm that it brings
Behind these four walls I desire nothing
Cursing the firstborn, never amounted to nothing
A still-born, hollow remains, for shame
Await for the fallow in me
Mine eyes aglow, life in a doll's house
Long gone widow, no guide of my choice
God given laws to which we are prone
Habitual, blood ties to disown
This bed unknown seems not to be sound
Wired audio, keep company down
Cursing the firstborn, never amounted to nothing
A still-born, hollow remains, for shame

Roses & Wine

Whisper-kissed, appeal to the masses
Now we never venture outside
And the days are long enough
Never a dull moment, reach high heaven
Time to think it over
While we fail, dismayed, au courant
From where I stand,
On a drip, drown in maladies,
For we gave it all, l'amour
Just to raise a smile I will provide roses and wine
For you to scrutinise, my love
The one constant the company we keep,
Goes hand in hand, somebody want to breed
As we reach for the incomplete
From where I stand,
On a drip, drown in maladies,
For we gave it all, l'amour
Maladies they await

Glass

These are the days of maidenhood
Behold in awe, marvel, delight in
Taste the age, eternal wonder
Shared conception, Tennessee's enslaved again
A peak, fallen veil
Distorted in harmony
She searches another
On Salvador skies I begin
Chained, same release, hold
From the rocks on the oceanside to no avail
Beyond the scars, our past
This bitter, safe-haven town, we leave our last
To grace we go, cherish the faithful
From the rocks on the oceanside to no avail
I crown thee, my love
I crown thee, my love
Echoes define from the glass we're behind
I crown thee, my love
From glass we're behind
These are the days of misunderstood
Caught between private alliance
Haste remains, it lies on yonder
A spare connection
Genevieve's inflamed again
Weep for the nailed
Out there the promises are ours now to face
With sides uneasy, to grace we go
Shatters the same home
From the rocks on the oceanside to no avail
I crown thee, my love
I crown thee, my love
Echoes define from the glass we're behind
I crown thee, my love
From glass we're behind

A taste of all the pure, the horror in me
Hear lies in symmetry
A waste, adorn, the finest figures indeed
See hearts in the closed windows
Show me the way, show me the way
Your turn to burn it on the fire
Show me the way, show me the way
While we move towards the light
Just us and me in high life
Open those swollen eyes
Just enough to tide us over
And from those systems
I would crawl to you, insufferable
A measure of the centre, falling back
Sudden lack, untold scenes of habitual
Show me the way, show me the way
Your turn to burn it on the fire
Show me the way, show me the way
While we move towards the light
Just us and me in high life
Open those swollen eyes
Just enough to tide us over

Sold Out, Wired Icon
Pattern recognition, inner distant world
Contect never better, while I list, then learn
Showered by conception through Duverger's Law
On the mount of Olives hit a Chinese wall
But I know the signs, that conquer, divide
Inside the beltway, Saul Alinksy
Cut it up, make it up, swear on my word
Nominal values, benefit of the doubt
Coming up, cracking up, show me the worth
Spending a penny on higher credit from the levee
Water, wired to the bone, wired to the bone
Send in the priest, on release, thank you, please
Now to show trials
But I know the signs that conquer, divide
Brother don't deny dishonour of mine
Such a cold design, the profit suffice
Pound to a penny, the sold-out committee thrives on
GDP, ITC, a profit profile
Deutschmark, Drachma, dollars and Yen
Playing on importance owing time and again
Deutschmark, Drachma, dollars and Yen
Playing on importance, own original sin

Bloody Mary

Bloody Mary's in the house, it ain't gonna be pretty
Bloody Mary's in the house and she's here to stay
She said ''Give me one, give me one, give me, want a reason
Not to be cracking all the bones in everybody's skull''
Oh she crave it, oh so private
Once sedated now, my lady
Bloody Mary's in the house, it ain't gonna be pretty
Bloody Mary's in the house and there's hell to pay
But she don't want, she don't want, she don't want to make it
Without her smackhead interpol, convicted infamy
Oh she crave it, oh so private
Once sedated now, my lady
Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary
Oh she crave it, oh so private
Once sedated now, my lady
