1. COMING HOME

Sweet Jesus come & save me,
I've been weak & gone astray
Take me down to the water &
Wash my sins away
Sweet Jesus I believe,
I have no faith in the word you say
Make me clean, make me pure again,
Make me ready for the judgement day
I'm coming home, coming home
I'm coming home, home to you
Lay my hands on the Bible & swear to
The good Lord above
I'll make amends for my sinful ways
& give myself up to your love
No more whiskey or whoring,
Or fighting like an alley cat
Cos' in the eyes of the Lord it don't
Matter where you're from,
It just matters where you're at
I ain't always been an honest man &
I've never been as white as snow
Travel a dark & dirty road
Then you reap just what you sow
Sweet Jesus be my saviour,
Come & lay your hands on me
Count me in for the resurrection,
Heaven for eternity


2. GET BACK TO YOU

Minnie Mouse grins her cheshire cat grin
The cat who's got the cream dribbling down her chin
Valentine sleeps in a heap on the floor
Give the dog a bone and she'll come back for more
The man in the moon is swinging in the breeze
Hanging like a fruit from the nevergreen tree
The face in the window is familiar and sad
My head is pounding and it's driving me mad
And I don't know how I feel anymore
cos there's nothing left to hold on to
And I don't know what is real anymore
I wish I could get back, wish I could get back to you
Faith hope and charity hanging in the hall
The genius of Dylon Rae tacked to the wall
There's a chill in the hair and it feels like snow
Better wrap up warm if you're planning to go
And I don't know how I feel anymore
Cos there's nothing left to hang on to
And I don't know what is real anymore
I wish I could get back, wish I could get back to you
Monkey see monkey do
I wanna be like you
Monkey see monkey do


3. DROWN IN BLUE

Ravaged, by the lines of age
Too many appetites to sate
Blue and as dark as death
Been swimming too long,
Can't catch my breath
I'm going down again
Don't wanna drown again like this,
Don't wanna fall apart like this,
Can't let the world see me like this
Hollow, empty as a promise
Don't get no pleasure from this
Sorrow, as cold as snow
Been holding on too long, can't let it go
Tears me asunder again
I'm going under again
Got no one but myself to blame
It's dragging me down into the Blue
I'm slipping under without you
So please don't leave me here again


4. DAMAGED

So you find it hard to face the cold harsh light of day
Hiding in the shadows of resentment and blame
The argument for violence over reason holds no sway
No matter what you promise I don't think you'll ever change
Damaged, you're oh so damaged
So you can't exist without your powder and pornography
It's a dangerous place where the white line makes you go
Armed with wideeyed logic and a handmedown biography
There's a devil inside when the mirror's covered in snow
Damaged, oh so damaged
Don't you think you're taking just a little too much for granted
Crawling from the wreckage of another crashed car
And don't you think you're taking just a little too much advantage
Climbing up to heaven just to piss on the stars
Damaged, oh so damaged


5. MORE THAN THIS

Don't care none for temptation
It's like the good lord jesus said
Lock horns with the devil himself and
You'll end up in his bed
And where there are no shadows
No demons can ever exist
Would you throw this all away
For the sake of a wanton kiss?
There must be more than this
There must be more than this
I know you think you walk on water,
But have you ever walked on air?
Cast no aspertion, this ain't no desertion,
This is just calling it fair
And when temptation takes a hold of you,
How can you ever resist?
Would you throw this all away for the flick
Of a perfumed wrist?
Judge not lest ye be judged, let
He who has no sin throw the first stone
Shower me with flowers, place them on my grave
Give me the grace for the sins I atone
I don't know the difference 'tween rigt and wrong, I
Don't understand the sense of regret and virtue
I want you to know ? never meant to cause you harm
I'm sorry but I never meant yo hurt you


6. THAT TEARS SHALL DROWN

I can't believe that you've been faking all this time
That's such a spiteful thing to say
I can't believe you never really cared
How am I supposed to know that you feel this way ?
I don't see how it matters now
That tears shall drown the wind
I don't see why it makes you cry
That tears shall drown the wind
I never promised you that the stars would come to us
You have to know I never lied
I know you feel it's like waiting for the end of the world
Sometimes it's easy just to let ot, let it slide
There ain't no sense in making accusations
No matter if you're wrong you're always right
There ain't no point in recrimination
I really don't have the strength to put up a fight


7. BLACK & BLUE

It's always the same, I'm always to blame
Your accusations leave me numb
And how I regret how you always forget
The violence and damaged done.
I could never explain, the seduction of pain
It's like a bad drug I can't hick
And how can I resist when you seduce with your fists ?
Boys will be boys when the blood runs quick
You always bring me down, you always bring me down
It's a mystery to me how cruel you can be
You always bring me down, you always bring me down
But I come crawling back to you and then you beat me
Black and blue, black and blue


8. BANG BANG

It's never enough to apologise
You always want more than I give
It's never enough to admit I'm wrong
You always want more rope to hang me with
It's never enough to work my fingers to the bone
A new man's work is never done
And it's never enough to grovel and crawl
Use my apologies as bullets for your gun
Bang bang, and I'm dead
Hold your gun right to my head
Bang bang, and I'm dead
No matter what we say we know it's got to end this way
(No matter what we do we know it's either me or you)
(I want you to know it hurts to see you go)
Bang bang
It's never enough to shoulder the blame
You want to crush me with the weight of disappointment
It's never enough to admit defeat
Rub salt into my wounds as your anointment


9. ALPHA MAN

It's never just a war of words
There's always some kind of hidden agenda
All you ever want from me
Is a white flag & a quiet surrender
This could be for ever more
As long as I succumb & suffer in silence
Love is like a battlefield
Where words are soldiers & talk is violence
I'm just doing the best I can
But I'm not your alpha man
I'm doing the best I can
But I'm not your alpha man
All you ever want me to be
Is another dead butterfly to add to your collection
Trapped in the killing jar
Tethered & bound to your idea of perfection


10. CANNIBAL

The hounds are a'howlin and the moon is so full
How bright are the stars whilst the dark can be so cruel
Hunting for prey across this ocean of a night
Capture and devour, come and sate your appetite
Cast your spell, I'll be a victim for you
Can't your smell, another victim for you ?
Throw me on the fire and I'll melt in the heat
The smell of burning flesh has never quite been so sweet
Tear the meant from the bone and leave nothing to waste
Have yourself a feast cos you're now got the taste
Cast your spell, I'll be a victim for you
Can't your smell, another victim for you ?
Can't you tell, I'll be a victim for you ?
So eat well, another victim for you
I wanna be seduced and ravaged
Your voodoo's working on me
I wanna be debauched and savaged
Come and work your voodoo on me


11. DYING ROOM

My mommy don't want me, daddy don't want me too
Nobody wants me, left me in the dying room
I ain't seen sunshine, never felt the rain
Never tasted joy, but I know pain
So please don't leave me, in this god forsaken hole
Please believe me, don't wanna die here alone
You stand accused, wish I'd never been born
Feel so abused, no one to mourn, the dying room
My mommy don't love me, daddy don't love me too
Nobody loves me, dying in the dying room
You turn away, and you shield your eyes
Feel so betrayed, feel so despised, in the dying room


12. EVERMORE & AGAIN

I can taste your lipstick
I can feel your breath
I can feel the shivers running down my spine
I can feel your heartbeat
I can feel your hand
I can feel your fingers dancing down my spine
I give myself to you heart and soul
flesh and blood forevermore
I can taste your sex
I can feel your heat
I can see the fire burning in your eyes
I can taste your sweetness
I can feel your joy
I can see the flames dancing in your eyes
I give myself to you heart and soul
flesh and blood forevermore
