Love Is Just Religion
07:54

Fragile
Fingers glide
Across my skin
Painting
Pictures of
The love we begin
And I'm
Home
And I
Could never let this
Go
She is
My dying breath
Escaping me
She is
My one last wish
That I'll never see
But I'm
Lost
How could I have been
Such a fool to believe in
You?
Love is just religion
I've felt your void
I've seen your lies
Again
To think all the songs
We've written praising your name
What a sin...
Laughable
To hear them say
That you'll find a way
And how I thought
That Constantine
Will find me someday

The Gypsy

Look at the ground you walk on
Do you even recognize my face?
I am The Gypsy
Save all your condescending looks
I'm dirty from all the roads I took
To be The Gypsy
But I feel nothing
My heart blackened
A long time ago
Yet I see everyone's pain
When you get tired of faking life
You can sit by me
Feeling the rain upon my neck
I'll sing you a song of my neglect
As you avert your eyes
It's getting colder
As my sins wash down the cobblestone
Painting the streets with my blood alone
I can say I'm good down here
I've come to accept
That life is a struggle
Though it's hard sometimes
I've always come to find
That the real ones
Sit beside me and play along with me

The One
05:17

We pierced them good
Outside the station
We tore them out
At Cam Ranh Bay
We set them all ablaze
As we would erase our time
Together
We trampled the hearts
Of which were bleeding with gold
We troubled their minds
So we could steal their souls
Remember those who cried
We are the unified
We stood on the shores
And waved your sons goodbye with you
Look what we've done, Mothers
Look what we've done
We are The One
Took 14 days for them to track us
We fell harder than the rain
Then Berlin skies opened on us
Then we brought Hell.
We are The One.

Proudest day of my life
February 4th, 1999
Born with the damn cutest grin
"You got my eyes and you got your Momma's chin"
I will tell you with my last breath
Cuz I ain't got very much left
But there's one final thing that I want you to hear
And I'll sing it at the top of my lungs so it's clear...
I love you, son.
I will back you forever
Through the good and the bad
You're the best goddamn friend
This 'ol boy ever had
I love you, son.
I knew ya had "it"
When you were barely 4
When I handed you the mic
At a Second Comin' show
The years have flown by
I watch how you change
Now you're a man
With whiskers on your face
So I'll tell you with my last breath
Cuz I ain't got very much left
If there's one final message to pass on to you,
And I savor each word so you know that their true...
I love you, son.
Can you hear the emotion engrained in my voice?
This Father's love will never die for this boy
I love you, son.
Life ain't always so kind
But if you use mine as your guide,
You're in for a hell of a ride!
One day your Daddy's gotta go
But in the meantime I need you to know:
"YOU'LL ALWAYS BE MY BOY."
"YOU'LL ALWAYS BE MY BOY."
"YOU'LL ALWAYS BE YOUR DADDY'S BABY BOY."
I love you, son.

In A Perfect World
03:31
|

I've been hearing a lot about another world
Where everything is perfect and clear
I hear people talk about it constantly
But it's never shown it's face around here
Take me away from here
Show me all my sweet dreams in colour
I will find you and never let you go
I wanna feel what it's like
In a perfect world
I wanna feel what it's like
To be safe at home, in the arms of a girl
I wanna see what it's like
In a perfect world
I've seen the words, "I love you" falling from your lips
But he's the one with you at home
I know I said that I'd wait for you forever
But I'm too scared of dying alone
Take us away from here
Show us all our sweet dreams in colour
Just find me and never let me go
My Chineseface
My Alabama
I wanna feel what it's like
In a perfect world

Forever 99
05:01
|

Say it ain't so
I don't wanna go
I was comin' up in this world
This was my heaven
The faces of all
The paint on these walls
I'll miss this...
My heart is slowly breaking
I never had a home like this
Turn out the lights
And say your goodbyes
This highway will roll forever
Forever 99
Let's have a toast
And raise our glass high
We are Forever 99
You gave me a stage
I gave you my soul
You wondrous cave
I'll always hold dear
All the notes that I wrote in here

No Ordinary Man
04:07
|
|||
Got the mind of a killer
I got the Devil inside me
Lord knows...
I ain't no ordinary man
They still try me
But they find
I ain't no ordinary man
Got a hole in my chest
Ice in my veins
No more feeling equals
No more pain
And I'll say it again:
I ain't no ordinary man
I been payin' the price
Of all my sins
I reckon I could repent
Or just sin again
I think I'll keep on sinning'
I ain't no ordinary man
I'll smile as I cut your throat
I ain't no ordinary man
Just a ghost among you all
I ain't no ordinary man

The Last Funeral
05:49
|

I can only dream of darkness
I would love to leave this place
As I'm walking in the daylight
I can only see your face
(But you knew that anyway...)
Close the lid on me
I leave everything to my son
"Don't leave me now"
I've seen everything
Everything...
Seems like nothing here is sacred
Can't wrap my head around the fact that you're all gone
Lord, I can't believe y'all left me here
I miss the beating of your hearts
Your bleeding hearts
Close the lid on me
I leave everything to my son
My new friends
Lower me down
Sprinkle the dirt
Wait for your turn
