Dreaming about her Dripping pendulum curls That pull at your world As your minds swim together The dark of your night cannot douse out the light That shines on the Heather I melt at the sight that bleeds crude, And divine, And spits life on the ashes I’ll take what I can before I wake up, Then I’ll leave forever. It’s a routine delay that I always replay And place on display. It’s my calling card when I’m falling apart. Moonlight trickles through the shutters. Subtle, dim lit appeal Flickers hints over contours And leaves me in tatters “I’ll bare all the scars”, the final remarks Of a man at his limits. The sugared scent of desire, leaks fuel in the fire And fogs up perceptions, Cue the hazy hum that grips at your lungs Like it’s begging you for something To cave, Or to remain the pristine young slave To the draw of lightning It gets harder to shake With no moves left to make.

Wicked Game 01:23
Grabbing hold of my hand Evil moves like silver Dripping out all over you Dash through the orchids naked Breaking daylight stabs Through the middle Of our opulent high Ooh, girl Stay cool, girl She’s got nothing on you, girl. I wanna play your Wicked game.

Heaven Knows 04:05
Heaven knows I’ve been dreaming. Cut the cord, Leave me here Suspended on a whim Or maybe I’ll get another drink in, Lose all sense of rhyme And reason And slow down my thinking Blacken out the sun With a new point of view Ideologies stumble out of This smoky room How can I be so young But feel so used? Breaking out of the mould I feel brand new How about you? Stepping out of mind, Been in here for a minute Tainted youth, Devilish schemes, Left me black and blue Forge another identity To live by God, I’d do just about anything To get through to you Blacken out the sun With a new point of view Ideologies stumble out of This smoky room How can I be so young But feel so used? Breaking out of the mould I feel brand new How about you?

Interlude 01:17
It's all in my mind These visions of you Burn straight through the night No matter how high I try and get Your demon won't allow me to forget He's got me set on you Drives a stake straight through my heart Every time I drift past
5.
I can’t believe it The state of my heart Makes for unappealing reading The livid demons await By my bedside in the morning Calling for me to tell you That I want you, bad. Though I’d die for the story, I’m one heartbreak away From never coming back Stand and deliver a sermon Upon the mount of sinners The devil slithers In and out of my mind Thoughts of you kick back Like a heart attack But I can’t take you back The hot taste of your loving Is too sweet for my liking I couldn’t keep myself together Now you’re leaving with another I guess that’s what I get For dreaming So much of my life Spent thinking about somebody Or another.

Strung Out 03:06
Strung out On the taste of the weekend Bitter sweet, Burning on my tongue Your lips drip sweet memories Of passion, And despair. I’m weak with fear That I could never Get you out of here Slow down, Come over here The nights were made For inhibitions to disappear. Oozing and heaving, Lustful and deceiving Oh, the taste of this world Leaves me reeling I misplaced my faith in Circles of excess I’m trying so hard But none of this makes sense Dreaming too much Too much drinking, Too much sex I don’t know how We’ll ever make it through this
