  #1 Crush

I would die for you
I would die for you
I've been dying just to feel you by my side
To know that you're mine

I will cry for you
I will cry for you
I will wash away your pain with all my tears
And drown your fear

I will pray for you
I will pray for you
I will sell my soul for something pure and true
Someone like you

See your face every place that I walk in
Hear your voice every time that I am talking
You will believe in me
And I will never be ignored

I will burn for you
Feel pain for you
I will twist the knife and bleed my aching heart
And tear it apart

I will lie for you
Beg and steal for you
I will crawl on hands and knees until you see
You're just like me

Violate all the love that I'm missing
Throw away all the pain that I'm living
You will believe in me
And I can never be ignored

I would die for you
I would kill for you
I will steal for you
I'd do time for you
I will wait for you
I'd make room for you
I'd sail ships for you
To be close to you
To be part of you
'Cause I believe in you
I believe in you
I would die for you
 (Bring me Up)

Afterglow

Center on the wide horizon
Focus on the galaxy
Sweep away your expectations
And recognize your enemies

But here you're talking to yourself
You're stripping off for someone else
You've got to learn to love yourself
It's all that counts
There's little else

You're always looking for affection
And all its possibilities
Your sense of searching for attention
In urgent need of gravity

I think you think you're someone else
You've got to learn to save yourself
Before you find there's nothing left
But bitterness and hollowness
And afterglow
And afterglow

(Bring me Up)

Alien Sex Fiend

You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend

You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend

You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend

And you go la la la la la la la la la la la la...

BEGGING BONE


You're just like a dog
With your begging bone
You're always chasing psychos
Down those rabbit holes
You like them the best
'Cause they are dangerous
And they get off on you
And your subservience

CHORUS
What can I do?
Can't make a monkey out of you
I can't keep you on a leash
Can't lock you in your room
I can't make you perfectly
Suspicious of the world
Can't teach you lessons
That you never want to learn

You started to believe
That you're completely unlovable
Which makes us want to laugh
'Cause you're adorable
You say you've been depressed
But no doubt you'll get over it
And get back on your feet
Just like a pugilist

CHORUS

It's ok to be afraid
Of what's inside another mind
An invitation to discover
And explore the other side
It's ok to be afraid
Of finding out you really care
Like a hammer crashing down
Between the clouds out of the air

Pray that they come through 
Of course they never do

Of course they never do (X 4)

Butterfly Collector

So you finally got what you wanted
You've achieved your aim by making the walking lame
And when you just can't get any higher
You use your senses to suss out this week's climber
And the small fame that you've acquired
Has brought you into cult status but to me you're still a collector

There's tarts and whores but you're much more
You're a different kind 'cause you want their minds
And you just don't care 'cause you've got no brain
It's just a face on your pillowcase
That thrills you

And you started looking much older
And your fashion sense is second rate like your perfume
But to you in your own little dream world
You're still the queen of the butterfly collectors

You carry on 'cause it's all you know
You can't light a fire, you can't cook or sew
You go from day to day by filling your head
But you surely must know the thrill between your legs
Has worn off

And I don't care about morals
'Cause the world's insane and we're all to blame anyway
And I don't feel any sorrow
Towards the kings and queens of the butterfly collectors

There's tarts and whores but you're much more
You're a different kind 'cause you want their minds
And you just don't care 'cause you've got no brains
It's just a face on your pillowcase
That thrills you

You carry on 'cause it's all you know
You can't light a fire, you can't cook or sew
You go from day to day by filling your head
But you surely must know the thrill between your legs
Has worn off

And I don't feel any sorrow
Towards the kings and queens of the butterfly collectors
(Bring me Up)

Can't Seem To Make You Mine

I can't seem to make you mine
Kissing' all around all the time
Flying' around like a bee
Hurting' everything you see

I tried everything that I know
To make you want to love me so
The only thing you do
Is try to put the hurt on me

Can't you see what you're doin' to me
You fill my heart with misery
With every breath, every step I take
I'm more in love with you

I can't go on like this
A little bit of love, not a kiss
I gotta have your love every day
One little bit I say

Can't you see what you're doin' to me
You fill my heart with misery
With every breath, every step I take
I'm more in love with you

I can't seem to make you mine
I can't seem to make you mine
Kidding' all around all the time
I can't seem to make you mine
Flying' around like a bee
Hurting' everything you see
I can't seem to make you mine
I can't seem to make you mine
I can't seem to make you mine
Can't seem to make you mine
(Bring me Up)

Deadwood

Handcuffed in the present tense
Variations on your violence
Mind games and pretty girls
A cracked song in the universe
I think it's time that I showed you what I'm made of
I'm afraid there is so much to be afraid of
I kill the fire so I don't get burned
Kill the fire and you won't get burned

Deadwood, if you care to listen
It's the same but there's something missing.
It wears me out
Stripped bare I'm the same old savage
How in His name did we ever manage
It's not enough

Look me in the eye
I'm about to dive
Can you live your life
Without me

I don't need you anymore
I can't use you anymore
Killing the fire
And you kill my desire
I don't need you anymore

Loud and clear but you still don't get it
I call you up and then I'll regret it
It gets me down
You want the truth but you look right through it
Deadwood but you hold on to it
It's such a shame

Look me in the eye
I'm about to dive
Can you live your life
Without me

I don't need you anymore
I can't use you anymore
Killing the fire
And you kill my desire
I don't need you anymore

First comes love
Then comes marriage
Then comes baby in a golden carriage
First comes love
Then comes marriage
Then comes baby in a golden carriage

I don't need you anymore
I can't use you anymore
Killing the fire and you kill my desire
Killing the fire and you kill my desire
Killing the fire and you kill my desire
Killing the fire and you kill my desire

Symptomatic of what we've become
I used to think you were the only one
First comes love
Then comes marriage
Then comes loneliness

Get Busy with the Fizzy

Well I might just consider this
If you don't let me down
If you can keep me happy
Well you can stick around
Now I don't care for sycophants
They drive me round the bend
But if you can't control yourself
Then let's just keep good friends

Let's make out in the back of your car
Let's go driving and toddling around
We can always get lost in a crowd
Are you ready to get deep down?

Now there's something you should know about
I'm chronically depressed
I internalize my hatred
And sacrifice myself
Now I am busy Saturday
But I am free tonight
And I might have to sort you out
If you don't do it right

Let's make out in the back of your car
Let's go driving and toddling around
We can always get lost in a crowd
Are you ready to get deep down?

Get Bizzy with the fizzy baby
Get Bizzy with the fizzy baby
Get Bizzy with the fizzy baby

Let's make out in the back of your car
Let's go driving and toddling around
We can always get lost in a crowd
Are you ready to get deep down?

Get Bizzy with the fizzy baby
Get Bizzy with the fizzy baby
Get Bizzy with the fizzy baby
Get Bizzy with the fizzy baby
Get Bizzy with the fizzy baby
Get Bizzy with the fizzy baby

Girl Don't Come

Girl don't come
If it's all been said and done
Don't hang around
Let them kick back off the ground
Let them kick back off the ground

Girl don't come
He's got nothing left to lose
But that's all right
That could well change overnight
You'll want to take that pretty head
Lay down in someone else's bed

Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come

If you want my sympathy my dear
You'd better not come near my dear
I think it's fair to say my dear
You'd better see my way
You'd better see my way

Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come (If you want my sympathy my dear)
Girl don't come (You'd better not come near my dear)
Girl don't come (I think it's fair to say my dear)
Girl don't come (You'd better see my way my dear)
Girl don't come (If you want my sympathy my dear)
Girl don't come (You'd better not come near my dear)
Girl don't come (I think it's fair to say my dear)
Girl don't come (You'd better see my way my dear)

ENOUGH IS NEVER ENOUGH


searching for fun, where do you go?
got your leather boots on
what do you know?
and they're playing garbage on the radio

enter the dark, you wanna run
enter the night where nobody knows you
where the boys are and everybody's high

CHORUS
if enough is never enough and
you're down at heart
if the world is getting you down then
come with us

CHORUS 

back to the bar
where the place is slamming
all the pretty queens 
and the sluts are dancing
and the conscience of politicians slide

all sweat and lust
and filthy habits
all the wanna-bes
hoping to sell their package
at the carnival of lonely broken hearts

CHORUS (X3)

come with us (X4)

(Bring me Up)


Kick My Ass

I'm so sorry
You had to kick my ass
You said I ruined your life
I didn't mean to do that

I had to untangle
Where we was entwined
You were strangling me
Were you breathing so fine

The jam I was in
When things weren't working out
Led me to the brunt
Of your swinging bout

I'm so sorry
I regret everything
But what can I do
To have you take back that swing

I'm so sorry
A scuffle ensued
But things are much better now
I guess thanks to you

The jam I was in
When things weren't working out
Led me to the brunt
Of your swinging bout

I'm so sorry
You had to pull my hair
I had to take care of business
A lot of business giving there
(Bring me Up)


Lick The Pavement

One, two, three, four

You've got my number you
Know what I need
And I go crazy when
Ever I bleed

Won't you come over I
Swear I'll be nice
My girlfriends told me that
You've left your wife

Learn to bribe and learn to say please
Won't you lick the pavement for me?
Learn to bribe and learn to say please
I like you best when you're on your knees

I know your lonely cause
You're just like me
Why don't you call me you
Know where I'll be

Learn to bribe and learn to say please
Won't you lick the pavement for me?
Learn to bribe and learn to say please
I like you best when you're on your knees

Learn to bribe and learn to say please
Won't you lick the pavement for me?
Learn to bribe and learn to say please
I like you best when you're on your knees

When you're on your knees
When you're on your knees
When you're on your knees
When you're on your knees
When you're on your knees
Won't you lick the pavement for me?
Won't you lick the pavement for me?

Sleep

In the middle of the night
Head on my pillow
Looking like a little ghost
Seems like all of the things
That you gave me mother
Have all gone up in smoke

In the middle of the night
You don't know what I'm thinking
But still the stars still do sparkle and shine
Seems like all of the time
Our boat was slowly sinking
You didn't even seem to mind

Now all I want to do is sleep
Now all I want to do is sleep
Now all I want to do is sleep
(Bring me Up)


Soldier Through This

You work too hard
So when you come home to me
You are tired
And you don't wanna talk about it
You envy my drive
And how I am motivated

We'll go down to the park
Check out the carnival
For a while
And try to forget all about it
I'm out of control
And you don't appreciate it

Believe it, I need it
I feel intoxicated
I love it, I want it
Don't make me leave you for it

You say I have changed
Self-centered and vain
And you don't respect me for it
The world is the same
So I'll play the game
And you've grown to hate me for it

So we rearranged
There's no one to blame
But still you resent me for it
I call all the shots
I hold all the cards
And you feel emasculated

Believe it, I need it
I feel intoxicated
I love it, I want it
Don't make me leave you for it

Believe it, I need this
I feel intoxicated
I love it, I want it
Don't make me leave you for it

Believe it, I need this
I feel intoxicated
I love it, I want it
Don't make me leave you for it

How do we reconcile this?
How do we reconcile this?
How do we reconcile this?
How do we reconcile this?

Subhuman

Burn down all your idols
Destroy your idols
Create a scene
There goes all your reason
It's helter skelter
It's not a dream

Come down from the altar
Remove your blindfold
What do you see
Nothing left to do here
There's nothing new here
It's all the same

You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?

Hare Hare Krishna
Was that your sister
A cover girl
A wasted prima donna
She lost her way here
She disappeared

Come back to your altar
And build a fire
It's getting cold
Nothing stops you in here
There's not a soul here
You're all alone

You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?

Here we go now

Hear the new religion
No inhibition
No alibi
Televised confession
A true obsession
Is on the rise

Miscommunication
Misinformation
A perfect waste
Bite the sacred apple
And suck the poison
Enjoy the taste

You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
You're going down, down, down
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?

How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?

Supernatural

Built a king on compliments
Charisma and advertisements
Still they see him shimmer ephemeral
It aint supernatural

Out of body experience
I flew around the little rooms
Intravenous demerol
And it aint supernatural
It aint, it aint supernatural
Supernatural maybe

Sudden smell
A certain view
Sparks a case of deja vu
It ain't inexplicable
No, it ain't supernatural
It ain't, it ain't supernatural
Supernatural maybe
Maybe
Maybe
Maybe

The World Is Not Enough

I know how to hurt
I know how to heal
I know what to show
And what to conceal
I know when to talk
And I know when to touch
No one ever died from wanting too much

The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you're strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love

People like us
Know how to survive
There's no point in living
If you can't feel alive
We know when to kiss
And we know when to kill
If we can't have it all
Then nobody will

The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you're strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love

I...I feel safe
I...I feel scared
I...I feel ready
And yet unprepared

The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you're strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love

The world is not enough
The world is not enough
No, nowhere near enough
The world is not enough

Thirteen

Won't you let me walk you home from school
Won't you let me meet you at the pool
Maybe Friday I can
Get tickets for the dance
And I'll take you

Won't you tell your dad, "Get off my back"
Tell him what we said about "Paint It Black"
Rock 'n Roll is here to stay
Come inside now, it's okay
And I'll take you

Won't you tell me what you're thinking of
And would you be an outlaw for my love
If it's so, then let me know
If it's no, well, I can go
I won't make you
(Bring me Up)


13 X Forever

Thirteen times you fucked with my karma
And thirteen times I fucked on your dogma
You've taught me to hate
You've taught me to crawl
 
You raised your hand as you waved the bottle
You knocked me down but it made me stronger
The harder you hit
The harder you fall
 
And this one's for my mother
What will I do without her
Don't look back
Don't even bother
 
And this one's for the father
Who loves his middle daughter
Well here I am
Don't even bother
 
You can freak out to doubt me
But you'll lose your mind without me
You thought you could see right through me
But it made no difference to me anyway
Anyway
Anyway
 
A free reign gave you ammunition
To play the game and fuck other women
And something just snapped
And cracked in my brain
 
Thirteen times I fucked up inside me
The different ways that you tried to harm me
You did it once
You'll do it again
 
And this one's for my sister
Who dared to denigrate it
Don't look back
Don't even bother
 
And this one's for my lover
The one who had to suffer
Here I am
Don't even bother
 
You can freak out to doubt me
But you'll lose your mind without me
You thought you could see right through me
But it made no difference to me anyway
Anyway
Anyway
Anyway
 
Thirteen times (one)
Thirteen times (two)
Thirteen times (three)
Thirteen times (four)
Thirteen times (five)
Thirteen times (six)
Thirteen times (seven)
Thirteen times (eight)

Trip My Wire

Be easy on me
I'm fragile
I'm easily
Broken

Be careful with me
I'm a fighter
And you're a cheat and
You're a liar

I don't need this anymore
This is not what I came for
I won't stand for this at all
I won't see you anymore

Be easy on me
Don't trip my wire
I'm a freak and
I'm on fire

Be easy on me
Trip my wire
I'm a freak and
I'm on fire

I don't need this any more
This is not what I came for
I won't stand for this at all
I won't see you any more

Be careful with me
I'm fragile
I'm a bitch, babe
And I'm on fire

Be careful with me
I'm fragile
I'm a bitch, babe
And I'm on fire

Be careful with me
Be careful with me
Be careful with me
I'm fragile

Don't you trip, tripping on my wire
I'm a freak, freak, freak but baby I'm on fire
I don't need this any more
This is what I came here for

USE ME


use me, I'm beautiful
take me, I'm yours
hurt me, it feels like medicine
and all I deserve

people have funny things
swimming inside
they swing like pendulums
they turn like the tides

CHORUS
darling
I don't need money
I could be happy
with someone to love

oh what a crazy time
I've been a fool
on a wild ride to oblivion
I lost my mind

but with you it's understood
you make me feel strong
your arms look so powerful
when they hold me down

CHORUS

everyone looks dangerous
and no one keeps their promises
and I am always running
and you have your dark places
regretting
feeling
remembering
something

we never said (regretting)
we wish we said (something)
we should have said (regretting)
we could've said (something)

truly
I don't need money
or strangers to love me
no diamonds and pearls
or fast cars
designed for the rock stars

I could be happy
with someone to trust
someone to love
someone to trust

use me, I'm beautiful
take me, I'm yours
