[ONLY THE GOOD ONES, DIE:]
Hot knife thru a wax museum
Cannibals in the Mausoleum
dead end dreams-
Surgent Demon feeding…
Spill the promise from her lips
Cry Havoc & let the dogs slip
Snatch Pearls before swine
Clouds for their silver line
hide it all behind a Chelsea smile…
Move thru you
like a magic bullet
Blue smoke danced
Laden Dash to pieces
stitches
Strangle out yer Lullaby
Lidless rattle Alibi
As we name all the stars in the sky--
Only the good ones die…
for I am just the fool before fall
[Mayday:]
Speaks in Funhouse mirrors
Tattle yer tale down trail o tears
Clawed out plus sign eyes
Blood shot goodyes
Cloven dripped in lost disguise
{mini}
You can call me poison ivy
To a shrinking violet
Baby, cut down the middle-
From Pit to the pulpit
Spent pennies from your eyes
Death takes no bribes
Momento mori
As we shot all the stars from the sky
…Only the good ones die…
And I am but the fool before fall
And we all fall down

(S.S.LOVE IS DEAD)
On the s.S, Love is dead
For every road must reach its end
Take me up…
Our silver tongues have wooed to dusk
Where once plead Dears still reel the curse
all dreams to dust our halos learn to rust
Take me up…
Pale fires awoke and beauty cageless
Saturn returned, our time to waste (it)
Crooked crowned and glory faded
Shadow spurned the sands are falling (hour)
Take me up…
And the sirens sang to me
Of the demons yet to feed
Monsters yet to Breed
In reasons sleep
May the coin redeem he
Dagger bleed he
Cup preserve me
Time reserve me
Woes begot, foes forgotten
When fear ensnares
Where once we dared them
Oh home away from home away
Weave back the will that went away
Breathe back the kiss Of yesterday
Our home from home away is plagued
As the sirens sang to me
Of the lives ive yet to lead
Of the secrets yet to keep
Of the To believe

[LONG WAY BACK TO PARADISE:]
I’VE BEEN SWALLOWING EVERY BULLET
SHOT THE SOUL INSIDE OF ME
TO REST MY LAURELS IN A BEAK OF HEMLOCK TEA
AND ON YOUR DEATHBED, THEY’LL BE BETTING
THOSE BEDBUGS ARE GONNA BITE
AND FOR 21 SLEEPLESS YEARS I SAW THE LIGHT
NOW THIS WAY I GO..
I’M TAKING THE LONG WAY BACK TO PARADISE
THEN I’M TAKING IT ALL (DOWN)
ENTWINE YOURSELF A RABID MUSE
TO EASE YOUR OWN DECEIT
IMPERSONATE YOUR STRANGE DECAY
COME ON LET’S LISP THE NIGHT AWAY
ESCAPE IS BUT THE HORRORSHOW
(YOU’VE GOTTA) CROAK OUT THE HYMNS OF OLD
TAME THE LION WITH A BRIAR AND A ROSE
(AND FROM THE TEMPLE THEY WERE HOWLING)
I’M TAKING THE LONG WAY BACK TO PARADISE
THEN I’M TAKING IT ALL (DOWN)
AND THE VENUSIANS FELL FOR A BEAUTY MARK
CHANGED THE VULTURE STAR INTO A GYPSY MOTH
FORGIVE THE RHYME AND REASON
INSIDE HER EMPTY METAL HEART
BE STILL FOR MY AU REVOIR…
AND ON YOUR EPITAPH IT READ
I’M TAKING THE LONG WAY BACK…

All vie for the feeling of

Whoa oh oh
Well I’m love with myself, don’t need nobody else
Come on push it off the shelf
Out Fink somebody else
We’re worms under the asphalt
Wolves outside of the landfill (lands filled)
Who could try predict the world?
The end with no beginning
Well I’m in love with myself
Don’t need no body else
Come on push it off the self
I don’t need that forfeit feeling
Fiendage Lightning
Whoa oah oh
Fiendage Lightning
Whoa oh oh
No Rock left to Bleed
Freedom and Weep
No lies left to keep
Freedom and Weep
For we’re all
And we’re already there
And we’re all
And we’re already there
Take me back to the way it was
Maybe back to the way it was
Make it back to the way it was
Fake it back to the way it was
For my…

Whoa oh oh
