I'm not sure what I'm looking for anymore I just know that I'm harder to console I don't see who I'm trying to be instead of me But the key is a question of control
Can you say what you're trying to play anyway? I just pay while you're breaking all the rules All the signs that I find have been underlined Devils thrive on the drive that is fuelled
All this running around Well it's getting me down Just give me a pain that I'm used to I don't need to believe All the dreams you conceive You just need to achieve Something that rings true
There's a hole in your soul like an animal With no conscience repentance unknown Close your eyes pay the price for your paradise Devils feed on the seeds of the soul
I can't conceal what I feel What I know is real No mistaken the faking I care With a prayer in the air I will leave it there On a note full of hope not despair
All this running around Well it's getting me down Just give me a pain that I'm used to I don't need to believe All the dreams you conceive You just need to achieve Something that rings true
All this running around Well it's getting me down Just give me a pain that I'm used to I don't need to believe All the dreams you conceive You just need to achieve Something that rings true

John the Revelator Put him in an elevator Take him up to the highest high Take him up to the top Where the mountains stop Let him tell his book of lies
John the Revelator He's a smooth operator It's time we cut him down to size Take him by the hand We'll put him on the stand Let us hear his alibis
By claiming God As his holy right He's stealing a God From the Israelite Stealing a God From the Muslim too There is only one God Through and through
Seven lies multiplied by seven Multiplied by seven again Seven angels with seven trumpets Send them home on the morning train
Well who's that shouting? John the Revelator All he ever gives us is pain Well who's that shouting? John the Revelator He should bow his head in shame
By and by By and by By and by By and by
Seven lies multiplied by seven Multiplied by seven again Seven angels with seven trumpets Send them home on the morning train

------------------------------------------------------------------- Suffer Well
Where were you when I fell from grace? A frozen heart An empty space
Something's changed and it's in your eyes Please don't speak You'll only lie
I found treasure not where I thought Piece of mind can't be bought Still I believe
I just hang on Suffer well Sometimes it's hard It's hard to tell
An angel lead me when I was blind I said "take me back, I've changed my mind" Now I believe From the blackest room I was torn He called my name A love was born So I Believe
I just hang on Suffer well Sometimes it's hard It's hard to tell
I just hang on Suffer well Sometimes it's hard So hard to tell
------------------------------------------------------------------- The Sinner In Me
If I could just hide The sinner inside And keep him denied How sweet life would be If I could be free From the sinner in me
I'll never be a saint That's not a picture that your memory paints Not renowned for my patience I'm not renowned for my restraint
But you're always around You can always be found To pick me up When I'm on the ground
If I could just hide The sinner inside And keep him denied How sweet life would be If I could be free From the sinner in me
I'm still recovering Still getting over all the suffering More known for my anger Than for any other thing
But you've always tried To be by my side And catch my fall When I start to slide
If I could just hide The sinner inside And keep him denied How sweet life would be If I could be free From the sinner in me
Overflowing senses Hightened awareness I hear my blood flow I feel it's caress Whispering cosmos Talking right to me Unlimited, endless God breathing through me
See the microcosm In macrovision Our bodies moving With pure precision One universal celebration One evolution One creation
Thundering rhythm Pounding within me Driving me onward Forcing me to see Clear and enlightening Right there before me Brilliantly shining Intricate beauty
See the microcosm In macrovision Our bodies moving With pure precision One universal celebration One evolution One creation
See the microcosm In macrovision Our bodies moving With pure precision One universal celebration One evolution One creation
------------------------------------------------------------------- I Want It All
I see a river It's oceans that I want You have to give me everything Everything's not enough It's my desire To give myself to you Sometimes
Sometimes I try Sometimes I lie With you Sometimes I cry Sometimes I die It's true Somewhere I find Something that's kind
And I've crossed the line again A line I drew in sand Still you give me everything And everything's not enough I'm ready but not willing To give myself to you Sometimes
Sometimes I try Sometimes I lie With you Sometimes I cry Sometimes I die It's true Somewhere I find Something that's kind
Come on over Lay down beside me And I'll try Come on over Lay down beside me And I'll try And I'll try
Just give me a reason Some kind of sign I'll need a miracle To help me this time I heard what you said And I feel the same I know in my heart that I have to change
Even the stars look brighter tonight Nothing's impossible I still believe in love at first sight Nothing's impossible
How did we get to be this far apart? How did we get to be this far apart? I want to be with you Something to share I want to be near you I'm not there
Even the stars look brighter tonight Nothing's impossible I still believe in love at first sight Nothing's impossible Even the stars look brighter tonight Nothing's impossible And if you believe in love at first sight Nothing's impossible
I still believe in love at first sight Nothing's impossible
------------------------------------------------------------------- Damaged People
We're damaged people Drawn together By subtleties that we are not aware of Disturbed souls Playing out forever These games that we once thought we would be scared of
When you're in my arms The world makes sense There is no pretense And you're crying When you're by my side There is no defense I forget to sense I'm dying
We're damaged people Praying for something That doesn't come from somewhere deep inside us Depraved souls Trusting in the one thing The one thing that this life has not denied us
When I feel the warmth Of your very soul I forget I'm cold And crying When your lips touch mine And I lose control I forget I'm old And dying
Oh Lillian Look what you've done You stripped my heart Ripped it apart In the name of fun Oh Lillian I'm a poorman's son And precious jewels Weren't found in schools Where I came from
Pain and misery always hit the spot Knowing you can't lose what you haven't got
Oh Lillian I should have run I should have known Each dress you own Is a loaded gun Oh Lillian
Ahhah Ahhah Ahhah
Oh Lillian I need protection I hear your voice And any choice I had is gone Oh Lillian Once I begun I could've stopped Til every drop Of blood was Sung
Pain and misery always hit the spot Knowing you can't lose what you haven't got
Oh Lillian Look what you've done You stripped my heart Ripped it apart In the name of fun
