Dust For Life [2000]

Now in your confusion
Out from blank eyes you stare yeah
Now in your confession
Numbs me so i don't care yeah

In the blood we drown
So beautiful are the scars where it cuts through
Beautiful are the faces you can see through
Beautiful are the holes i fell into
Where you got bitten

Now in your condition
You crawl out from nowhere yeah
Now so close a martyr
Self-made crown of thorns you wear yeah

Chorus

Yeah

Onward see what you came for
A traveler for evermore
Voices whisper the story
Sadness walks to satori


Break the bread
Drink the wine
Crawl the womb
Climb the tide
Tell the lie
And ask the why
You got bitten

Chorus

Yeah yeah

I take the life from the seed
I rectify the lost need
I am the one who can't sleep
You're the one who can't dream

I'll fly away
Lost in the sun
Vanish in the haze
Nowhere to run

I take the whole from the part
I clarify the lost art
I am the light in the dark
I am prepared to depart

Chorus

Nowhere to run

(***)

Chorus (x2)

Nowhere to run
Nowhere to run

Not even time can kill me
I am the candle that burns an endless flame
I breathe the sand of your waiting
And all the darkness and hate that you embrace


Nothing can buy me
Nothing can tie me down
Nothing can waste me away
Nothing can stop me to rust i am alive
Even as dirt into dust

And i can see for miles
Into the desert of your love
Now the cobra rises up to greet me
Rose petals rain down as she kisses me sweetly

Chorus

Yeah and i am not afraid
My love is strong and alive
And i will never desert you

And i will stay alive
I will stay alive

Chorus

Your heart's as black as poison
Cold as ice through and through
You say you wouldn't hurt me
Not what you say it's what you do

Where is my yesterday
It's clearer than tomorrow
Now i incinerate
The vision that you borrowed
Poisoning my mind

Take my soul leave the shell behind
Keep pushing the line
Take me out leave me without your poison

Your heart's as black as poison
Cold as ice through and through
You say you wouldn't hurt me
Now my mind is frozen too

Your world is made of glass
Message in a bottle
If you'd thrown out your trash
Might have made a martyr

Chorus

Keep pushing me down
Keep pushing me i don't care (x6)

Poison

The night is always young
Count the visions that you see
Violent blue and shocking green
Seek the course that must be run
Strip the image from the sun
It's deeper than you've ever been

Watching waiting
For the night to fall (for the night to fall)
Wanting wailing
For the shadow call (for the shadow call)
Dreaming screaming
Hiding all that's true (hiding all that's true)
You are looking for the shadow pool

The days are always long
And the pitch is just a dream
Your eyes just seem to bleed

When the truth is hard to find
Jealousy fills your mind
It's deeper than you've ever been

Chorus (x2)

Lover make her naked still but nothing shows
No time no place one will be as one does fake
No gift no need so you try to bring me down
A promise a joke laughing on my suffering

I don't mind
I know why you hide
I don't mind
I know the why of your disguise
I dont mind
I know the why and i don't mind

Choking sickness looking on as i am raped
Bleeding crawling pointing out my every mistake
So you go down and you think your lie won't show
Breeding feeding taking in the enemy

Chorus

Is she gone all because i am all wrong
Is she gone all because i am all wrong
I don't mind
Gone to far to come back
Is she gone

Chorus
