GRINNIN'
05:16
|

Don't you mind
people grinnin' in your face.
I want you to bare this in mind
a true friend is hard to find.
Your mother, she will talk about you.
Your brothers and your sisters too.
It don't matter how you tryin' to live
they gonna talk about you still
I want you to bare this in mind
a true friend is hard to find.
Don't you mind people grinnin' in your face
If there's one thing I know
It's that a beautiful woman ain't ever alone
she could leave you in the streets to die
already she got another one caught in her eyes
I want you to bare this in mind
a true friend? well she's hard to find.
Don't you mind people grinnin' in your face
Some people try and jump you up and down
they're gonna push you down to the ground
just when you think your lesson's learned
they gonna wait till your back is turned.
I want you to bare this in mind
a true friend? well she's hard to find
don't you mind people grinnin' in your face

YOUR LOVE
02:55
|
|||
I've had a hundred lovers
and I'll have hundreds more.
But no matter how many I have,
I can't figure out what for.
You see, fever in the evening
leads to fever at night
and all of these feverish dreams that I have
keep me up till the mornings light.
Now I can find the answer
laying in my lovers bed
but I keep the keys to my heart
locked away instead.
I don't want your body
I don't need your touch
I sure as hell don't want your love
and I don't miss you.
Baby, you're a fool
I know that it's true.
Only a fool
would do the things that you do.
You say that you love me.
you say that you care.
Well, tell me why honey
you're not there?
I could find the answer
laying in your lovers bed,
but I keep the keys to that thought
locked away instead.
I don't want your body
I don't need your touch
I sure as hell don't want your love
and I don't miss you.
Kiss me like a stranger
Fuck me like you don't know my name
This will be the last time.
I won't be coming around again

LOVE NEVER DIES
03:12
|
|||
I'd pour you your drinks
and light your cigarettes
and carry you home
with those scents on your breath.
If you'd just be mine
till the end of time.
Love never dies
Like bees to the hive
I will die with these words on my tongue.
With no one in mind
it comes as sup prize
that I hope that I don't die alone
Name your poison; your game
I'll play all the same.
If you just let me in
no, I'd never go dim.
So just hold me close
and don't let go.
Love never dies
Like bees to the hive
I will die with these words on my tongue.
With no one in mind
it comes as sup prize
that I hope that I don't die alone

AT A TIME
02:27
|
|||
I fell in love
with a girl
made of the sweetest things
that you can find in this world.
At a time, we made love
on a beach in the rain.
So I pressed against her chest,
she wrapped her legs around my pain.
Sex became a weapon
and it dropped me to my knees.
when I needed what she wouldn't
I found others who would please.
She'll know my soul
by the shadows of her smoke.
Breaths me in without thinking,
without a word she lets me go.
And I'll do all I can
to try and survive
I'll stain the walls of her lungs
to keep her thoughts of me alive
Her memory still lingers
above in the air.
I've got a heart like a tumour
It'll kill me, I swear.

FIRE AND ICE
04:42
|
|||
Fire and Ice
don't mix so nice.
But at a time,
they had love.
So people, gather 'round
I'll tell you how it all went down
Fire to this day
Still burns hot.
Conscience, ethics, morals, shame?
She knows nothing of these games
Torment, suffering, disconnect, pain?
He was plagued by all these things.
Ice came from the clouds
and was dragged down to the ground.
Robbed of her fluid nature,
given this heart made of stone.
So Fire melted her down
thinking she would stick around.
But he boiled her blood,
so she left his weary soul.
Conscience, ethics, morals, shame?
She knows nothing of these games
Torment, suffering, disconnect, pain?
He was plagued by all these things.
Fire looked around
at all he burned to the ground
and he said, to me, "Where do I go?"
Fortune came to me
and she said "nothing in life is free"
And I believed every word.
Conscience, ethics, morals, shame?
She knows nothing of these games
Torment, suffering, disconnect, pain?
He was plagued by all these things.
Fuel the fire

JUST LIKE A BOY
04:48
|
|||
When I met you,
you were just thirteen.
Your school crush
walked me out the door.
You told me, to tell you,
something interesting.
But all I could say is,
"Love is a bore."
But then we both
got a little bit older,
you figured you'd even the score.
You couldn't resist
true loves first kiss, no.
When our eyes met,
Showed you what my love was for.
You should have seen
the look on my face,
when you told me you'd be mine.
Just like a boy
in a candy store
waiting to get high
from you
Now, you and I
and a bottle of wine?
Could be interesting.
We could work it out,
You know, I want nothing more.
Anytime you give me
is a blessing.
Won't you help me pick up
this hear off the floor?
In your eyes I see
you and I caressing.
Walking hand in hand
alone on a rivers shore.
After awhile you begin undressing.
I'll show you why, I'll always be yours.
Your should have seen
the look on my face
when you told me your goodbyes
just like a boy, on his birthday
when no one arrives.
it's true
That I love you

DANCE OF THE DEAD
02:29
|
|||
Live your live
for the man of smoke
I hope you choke.
On your words.
For a day will come
when regret flows like the rain
but I won't be around for you to blame
While you dance the dance of the dead
Till there's nothing left but these thoughts in your head
You dance the dance of the dead.
A pressure's building up
so I think it's time for me to leave
I don't know why, you refuse me.
But here I am, with my heart in my hands
can I offer you something to eat?
While you dance the dance of the dead
Till there's nothing left but bad thoughts in your head
You dance the dance of the dead.
Do you know
what you do?
You fools.
You kill the best part
of your youth.
You fools.
While you dance the dance of the dead
Till there's nothing left but this fear in your head.
You dance the dance of the dead.

FEAR III
04:42
|
|||
Fear is a place you can go
where there are many rules to follow.
Love won't come around
it's repelled by the stench
that sticks to your cloths
Fear is a place for fools
and fools alone with leave you hollow
Love, won't show it's face.
Just sits there and roots
till it's covered in mold.
Nobody Knows.
Where is my soul?
Nobody knows.
Fear will build you a wall
around your soul with a lock on every door
Love will try to no avail
to slip through the cracks
and try no more
Fear is a ship without sales
sinking down to the bottom, to hells door.
and love? She cannot swim
Alone she is screaming "Fire!"
On the shores.
Fear will build you a wall
around your soul with a lock on every door
Love will try to no avail
to slip through the cracks
and try no more
