Devolution (2003)
SADNESS
You emerged from meBorn down by the sea
I know the games you play
A mine of pure decay
I know you, I know you well,
I know you I know you. I know you well,
I know you
I can feel your sadness
I can feel your sadness
You're on your own
WHEN THE WORLD DISAPPEARED
Like a tree bare of leavesDown on my knees
Unwilling to please
Wrong side of the track
Stabbed in the back
Just mending the cracks
Then you came down my way
And all the things you'd say were amazing
And the world disappeared
All the clouds and the rain
I could hardly explain how I felt
When the world disappeared
And eternal spring was growing within
Go, give me a thrill
Dress up to kill
I'm tied to your will dig.
Find the unfound
Nailed to the ground
I don't hear a sound
Absence of the mind
Potential suicide
Out of time now
When the world disappeared
Flowers perfumed the air
You make me so aware of me
When the world disappeared
All my sorrow and pain
'cause the world couldn't tame her
When the world disappeared
As you whisper my name
Pouring oil on the flame I feel
When the world disappeared
I confess all my sin
While you're letting God in
MISS YOU MORE
Will I be here endlesslyWithout a firm sense of identity
In a world that left me cold and empty
In a world that left me cold and empty
I'm about to lose my hold
Come alive and take me far
So alive come take me far and near
'cause the morld will leave you cold and empty
'cause the world will leave you cold and empty
I'm about to lose control
Won't you come alive
And take me down your trail
Hold me close before it's too late
Come alive and lead me all the may
(I miss you more than home)
Hold me close before it's too late
When your colors start to fade
All your colors fade away I pray
That your love
Won't keep me cold and empty
That your love
Won't leave me cold and empty
I'm about to lose my hold
DRIFTING SIDEWAYS
Fed my eyes on you girlDived deep into your world
Watched my life go down the drain
I drew upon myself
For too long now
Feels like I'm not your saviour anymore
Will I float here forever and a day
Drifting sideways
In a world I'll never understand
Will I float here foreyer and a day
Drifting sideways
I'm dying here like always
Walked the line for you girl
Almost drowned in your realm
Watched myself wasting away
You've been a drag on me for much too long
Feels like I'm not your saviour anymore
A NEW DAWN
Lightly come, lightly goSick of your idealized home
I'm only pain
Not good for you
Don't follow me for
I'm lost too
Another day, another way
Once again I brave the world
In the light oF things to come
It takes more to turn me on
And when the day is dawning
I leave it all behind
And when your world is calling
I leave it all behind
With a crying eye
And when the day is dawning
I leave it all behind (mith a crying eye)
And when your world is calling
I leave it all behind (with a crying eye)
And when the day is dawning
I leave it all behind
And everything you're falling for
I leave it all behind
FAR TOO DEEP
AngelHold my hand for a while
On a rainy day
Lift me high to the sky
Angel
It's all in your mind
The world's ever pulsating life
The world that you can't leave behind
Lady, you go far too deep
That's by far too deep
Angel
Hold my life for a while
On a winter day
We might run to the sun
Angel
It's all in your head
The light's gone out
The world is dead
A stranger dwelling in my bed
Lady, you go for too deep
This is far too deep
You go far too deep
That's by far too deep
All the days useless spent
All the nights that know no end
All this pain we tasted of
We can never get enough
Our convictions divide
Our hopes and doubts unite
Don't let go just hold on
I know we can't go wrong
DIGITAL DREAM
Put some soul in my machinePut some soul in my machine
Machines do not dream
Feed your dreams in my machine
Feed your dreams in my machine
Dirty and obscene
Unwrap all your beauty and love
Unwrap all your beauty and love
Put some life in my machine
Put some life in my machine
Machines do not feel
Fill the world in my machine
Fill the world in my machine
Tried to keep it clean
YOU SAY...
In love with the idea of loveRend the silence draw some blood for me
Evoke this memory
Retrieve me from oblivion
Break away from all your idle dreams
Life's never what it seems
You say, you say, you say, you say, you say,
You say, you say, you say, you say, you say,
I know that all there is is pain
And all the lover's love in vain, we do.
You know we do
I'm dwelling where the sun don't shine
Devoured by all-consuming hole
Where once there was a soul
I'm bound inside an empty house
Where love is just a distant melody
No place for you and me
MARY JANE
Chain meConfiscate me
Change me
Rearrange me
She's the light of my eye
Tame me (I'm addicted to you)
Domesticate me (I will always love you)
Drain me (so addicted to you)
Suffocate me
Mary chain me to you
Mary Jane pull me through
THE DAY'S NOT DONE
No one left to fight forNo one here to hit me in the face
No one left to fight for
Don't let it go away
No one left to cry for
Who is gonna kick you when I'm gone
No one left to cry for
Don't make it go away
I know that the day will come
I know we will be as one
I can see the day is not yet done I'm holding on
I know that the day will come
I know we will be as one
I feel that a new life has begun
I'm holding on
No one left to die for
No one there to catch you while I fall
No one left to die for
Don't make me... just go away
