From the edge of the city I'm driving downtown Under the shades of lights I'm driving fast I've got no time to lose Nothing to break thru From my previous ideals There's nothing left There's a thing you deny Then deal with it There's a thing you can fight Then deal with it Well You know what i mean you're not so clean don't try make me roll over On my way to the crime scene I'm grinding my teeth There's a bad taste i feel inside my mouth The taste of betrayal and Lost illusions When your best friends become Worst enemies

Take me, kiss me hard, Screw me 'til you, give me scars. Everything, I want is now, all my senses overpowered. Your eyes spark, with love and lust. Your hips grind, my pain to dust. You've been burning, in my blood, driving me crazy, till I think you’re god. You've been burning, in my blood, Bite me, until I shiver. Rock your body, quicker and quicker. Find in me, your secret obsession, sear my soul, with your carnal possession. Blood-fire in you, tastes so sweet. Tattoos writhing, in the heat. You've been burning, in my blood,

I’ll see you outside We’re riding way far out of sight Got a map off a crazy guide It will show us the way tonight Lift you up, carry you far ‘Cause I believe in esctasy You look cool under moving lights There won’t be no more screaming fights Cast you into the neon night Take you to where the stars are right Burnt faces all around White skies are open wide Air screaming through an altered state Wheels burning as we lock our eyes Bring us speeding through heaven’s gate Lift you up, carry you far ‘Cause I believe in esctasy You look cool under moving lights There won’t be no more screaming fights Cast you into the neon night Take you to where the stars are right All the things that i’ve been missing All these things that have been broken

Psycho [MMX] 04:22
You're the only friend i have You're the only one i need You're the only one i own The picture in my house You're the one that closes the mind to reality You're the one that breaks our fears and eludes our dreams I can't hide anything from you, you have my trust My trust Some buried fears and buried love come out from my mind Passion and obvious innocence seem something like a lie I may burn in hell for something i could tell But the way you ease me makes me tell the truth I can't hide anything from you, you have my trust My trust Those buried things i tried to hide were spit out from my mouth And broken dreams and self-confidence Are all i left behind I couldn't hide anything from you, you had my trust My trust

The end of a time Like youth mystic explosion You watch the line The seventh attack And it’s frozen outside You’re frozen inside Torn by the screams Too much to bare You’re frozen inside Torn by the screams Heart beating Have I long to wait Have I long to try Have I come to wait for the injury Have I long to wait For the girl to cry Or just hang on and take in the scenery Into someone’s eyes The crush of a loaded crowd There’s a hope you can feel in time The song of a deathless guy It tightens you (A thunder rolled in your soul) Across the road A hundred moans The fire the twitches the longing calls Far out to sea You’re begging me But I can never feel what you feel Have I come too late Are there tears to cry Have I come to wait for the injury Have I learned my fate Left me high and dry Or just hang on and take in the scenery There’s no need to pretend I’ve been looking for you

Summer sky black and blue I could dive into you Feel the price I will drive Until I’m fully satisfied You stopped fucking age of 32 You had probably better to do Feel the price I will drive Until I’m fully satisfied You could be my friend You should take my hand We could take the land And never get old Funny maid sunny bitch Your hidden head to reach the ditch Feel the price I will drive Until I’m fully satisfied No I don’t say much and I don’t show much But I’d do anything to feel your touch I’m made of ice but I will die If you leave me unsatisfied You could be my friend You should take my hand We could take the land And never get old

Every night i have this dream Then i wake up and feel the stream Of your breathe behind my neck I'm just a ship that have been wrecked I was asleep until it came Then felt afraid and so ashamed Within this and out from me It's coming up and meant to be I see angels falling, As my soul is fucking drawning I (just) feel like i was never born All this shit makes me feel so old Everyday before the night I pray my gods and shut the lights Then all i do is sleep and dream Well, now you know what comes to me I am asleep until it comes Then feel so weak and so alone Within this and out from me It's coming up and meant to be I see angels falling, As my soul is fucking drawning I (just) feel like i was never born All this shit makes me feel so old

I felt a Funeral, in my Brain, And Mourners to and fro Kept treading - treading - till it seemed That Sense was breaking through - And when they all were seated, A Service, like a Drum - Kept beating - beating - till I thought My mind was going numb - And then I heard them lift a Box And creak across my Soul With those same Boots of Lead, again, Then Space - began to toll, As all the Heavens were a Bell, And Being, but an Ear, And I, and Silence, some strange Race Wrecked, solitary, here - And then a Plank in Reason, broke, And I dropped down, and down - And hit a World, at every plunge, And Finished knowing - then - Crash – Got through

Slipping through the V.I.P., Sippin’ champagne, yeah that’s me, All I made today I’ll burn, Will these pricks never learn ?(6) Expense accounts and flash fast cars, With this flow we’ll be fucking stars, Dog eat dog, and heres the bitch, Sell more lies, get rich quick. Let me tell you lies for money, You know it makes life sweet as honey Let me tell you crap to justify I’ve got to make it dirt to make I right Lies, I got an endless store, That’s it baby, raise my score. Money, its never enough, ‘Til you can’t spend the stuff.(6) Power, pain, greed, corruption, hate, With all of these, Im on the make, On the up, makin’it big, Fatter than a suckin’ pig. Let me tell you lies for money, You know it makes life sweet as honey Let me tell you crap to justify I’ve got to make it dirt to make I right The money lies, So I dont have to, Just look in my eyes, Let me blind you.

I see colours in my pain, Everyday won't seem the same. You held me tight, You're here tonight. I see beauty everywhere, When I dance for yesteryear. You held me tight, You're here tonight. Music caresses, As it stabs, You promised that I'd never be sad. You held me tight, You're here tonight. Now I Feel all my hurts, Have gone away. Forget the past, it never will be, You stole my soul but now I’m free. Forget the past, it never will be, You stole my soul but now I’m free. I see beauty everywhere, When I dance for yesteryear. You held me tight, You're here tonight. Music caresses, As it stabs, You promised that I'd never be sad. You held me tight, You're here tonight. Now I Feel all my hurts, Have gone away. All that’s left is happiness. You held me tight, You're here tonight.

It is over you were right How could i ve been so blind I won t get through I won t get through this time But all the dreams where you were mine They re sticking to my mind They won t get through They won t get through You should be in my life You should be in my life Before i kill someone Before i kill someone What you got is what i need I want to meet you in the stars What you got is what i need I want to meet you in the stars
