Solid black
a day that never came
on her wedding night
a grave without a name
vicious lies and how we met the end
terror on the lips of Monday
How many birds panic when they're falling from the sky?
Until we all have died...
And give me peace...
|

I'll see you if now and when
distortion across my face
the ruins on a masquerade
we prey upon millions to burn
and morn their deaths...
I'll see you if now and when
a plague on this sacred place
the blue and the sky and these birds want to fly
we fall from its nest as you lay me to rest
and bare me no more...

Never say forever
vanish into fleets of snow
if we could die together
take me now hold me close
give me love or madness
climb into this empty bed
passion from my thoughts explode
spiders crawling aching head
echos linger from a distance
walking towards a blinding light
the taste of blood is so familiar
and what I feel inside can't wait...
Another day we fall to pieces
hanging off a glimpse of hope
kissing after dark at midnight
strangled in your tragic hold
echos linger from a distance
walking towards a blinding light
the taste of blood is so familiar
and what I feel inside can't wait...
The taste of blood is so familiar
and what I feel inside can't wait...
no...

Half my life and half the time
we fight and bite and scream all night
precious as my tortured soul
and just as fun as animals
deadly crowds will gather around
and see the things you won't believe
theses massive eyes and massive lies
make it such a better place to leave
Stay with me for now
it's never what you think
impossible for you
is possible for me...
Nothing hides the pain away
the shame inside to call me name
incendiary tragedy
it's never where you want to be
the sites the sounds the taste of fear
or crawl into my head again
a wish against a mourning shroud
the whispers in my ear when I feel down...
If you find yourself in fire...

HAPPY PHANTOM - Slave
04:49

There's blood again your'e civilized
coward by the waiting room
so beautiful so televised
fire from a wedding groom
so beautiful and paralyzed
like fire from the thought of you
and I'm you slave
I'm your light
yes, I'm your slave tonight...
There's blood again
you feel alive
flowers in your dressing room
so beautiful so televised
like fire from the thought of you
so virtual so mesmerized
when you tell me what to do
and I'm you slave
I'm your light
yes, I'm your slave tonight...
To never love is never pain
to never give my heart away
to never feel or ever hope
it's never real it's all so cold...

After one
kissing rain
looking on
missing name
running out
empty souls
they're coming down
and these holes on your sleeves
make it cold...
Days in the dark
minutes at a time
crawl and fear away
moments in the blind...
Killing time
sinking ships
clever lies
swollen lips
running out
empty souls
we've come undone
and these holes on your sleeves
make it cold...

HAPPY PHANTOM - Voices
05:34
|

Our love will burn forever
the minute when you let me go
but will you see?
we've wandered off together
tell me that you love me so and it will be
twisting at your side at starlight waiting for the day
twisting at your side at starlight, won't you let me stay?
It's up to no one
pleasure finds me
encapsulation
on a still frame
desperation
voice of madness
I can't wait for this to end someday
I'll find my way...
|
||||
8. |
||||
|
So we wait for the next day
and the next time
and we wait for the next wave
in the next life
is it your mind
is it my mind
in the next life...
So we wait for the next day
and we wait for the next wave
the lights the light
is it your mind
is it my mind
in the next life...
It's a light that I can't save...
|

I'm haunted by the sound
whispers in the dark
shadows in the night
can you take this fear away
a hollow as the time
waiting as my life goes by
we're counting out the days
give me something more to kill this
unholy war chest
unholy love
there's something by the wall
crawling out of everything
like halos on the moon
bursting towards a falling sky
as hollow as the time
waiting as my life goes by
we're counting out the days
give something more to kill
this unholy war chest
unholy love
war chest
unholy love
unholy love...
|

I'll never feel the same again
the moment has been lost
when everything unfolds
and magic turns to dust
as fragile as the time
I see it all go by
I'm haunted by the thought
of never coming home...
Have I been away too long
where everything went wrong
the things I've never changed
another angry face
it's always been just me
and everything's my fault
it's who I could have been
and what I haven't done...
|
||||
11. |
||||
|
One perfect day...
it's all I ever crave
where all this darkness fade away
where we can see the sun again
where we don't have to run away...
There's no way out but I don't care
you fall apart when I'm not there
imagine how it never ends
forever lost is only now and then...
One perfect day
find these clouds are never gray
it's one less word you have to say
keep me from this empty pain
and tell me how the world is ours to take...
One perfect day...
