THEM
(Written by Anders Manga)
I got a .45 loaded and the Eyes of No Remorse
I've Been Labeled as the Wanted Since I Left All Recourse
I've Been Waiting in the corners on the Left of an All-Time Low
I've Been Sheltered by The Madness On the
Course of Time Borrowed
I Got a Woman Yelling Heaven With All of Her Eight Legs Spread
I Got Another Spinning Tangles To Devour And Seeing Red
All Intentions Are Dead, All Intensions Are Dead, All Intensions Are Dead
Raise the Horror, Raise the Creeps / Once Again / What Will Be Left of Them
RESIDUAL FEAR
(Written by Anders Manga)
Hey, My Hate is spewing flames and melting every soul
Wait, Don't Break the massacre breeds deadly girls I know
The names of the scorned are written on a headless cross way down in hell
By the broken tombs that crumble are the ones that could never tell
This Residual Fear has Come To Bleed Beside You and Walk Behind You
This Residual Fear has Warned You That / One False Move and You're Blown Away
Take is Slow, Proceed with every caution on your own
Come Inside, Shed your skin and every fear you've known
The names of the scorned are written on a headless cross way down in hell / By the broken tombs that crumble
are the ones that could never tell
This Residual Fear has Come To Bleed Beside You and Walk Behind You
This Residual Fear has Warned You That / One False Move and You're Blown Away
HERE
(Written by Anders Manga)
Inside here, Inside it’s all true / Inside here, Inside I'll Find you
Without you, Inside here it’s cruel
Without You Inside I’ll get through
A Lunatic High and Dry / A Lunatic Emphasized /
A Lunatic’s Last Goodbye / A Lunatic’s Rash Demise
If I hadn’t lost every friend that I’ve had,
I’d trade them all in for a love that would last
If I hadn’t crossed every love that was mine,
I’d make up for all my poor actions and lies
If I hadn’t broke every
heart that I won
I’d make sure all their mistrust is undone
If I lost control, If I lost Control, If I lost Control
A Lunatic High and Dry / A Lunatic Emphasized /
A Lunatic’s Last Goodbye / A Lunatic’s Rash Demise
LOVELY SORT OF DEATH
(Written by Anders Manga)
In Conversation with a Kaleidoscope of Black
The Kiss of Death Has Given Orders to Attack
My Clarity and Order Leaves me to believe|
The Innocent aren’t living and the wild ones are a dying, lonely breed.
The trick turned alley whores have triples just this hour
A three foot satan promises more hate and power
Behind the Mirrored door and the opium wasteland
The tour guide melted in a patch of quicksand and the
damned have been exploited.
A Lovely Sort of Death that takes you like an endless lover
A Lovely Sort of Death that takes you in and never can let go
A Lovely Sort of Death that Leaves you like a dead-beat mother
A Lovely Sort of Death that takes you in and never can let go
THE MERCY SEAT
(Written by N. Cave)
It began when they come took me
from my home
And put me in Dead Row,
Of which I am nearly wholly innocent, you know.
And I'll say it again
I..am..not..afraid..to..die.
I began to warm and chill
To objects and their fields,
A ragged cup, a twisted mop
The face of Jesus in my soup
Those sinister dinner deals
The meal trolley's wicked wheels
A hooked bone rising from my food
All things either good or ungood.
And the mercy seat is waiting
And I think my head is burning
And in a way I'm yearning
To be done with all this weighing up of truth.
An eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
And anyway I told the truth
And I'm not afraid to die.
Interpret signs in catalogue
A blackened tooth, a scarlet fog.
The walls are bad. Black. Bottom kind.
They are sick breath at my hind
They are sick breath at my hind
They are sick breath at my hind
They are sick breath gathering at my hind
I hear stories from the chamber
How Christ was born into a manger
And like some ragged stranger
Died upon the cross
And might I say it seems so fitting in its way
He was a carpenter by trade
Or at least that's what I'm told
Like my good hand I
tatooed E.V.I.L. across it's brother's fist
That filthy five! They did nothing to challenge or resist.
In Heaven His throne is made of gold
The ark of his Testament is stowed
A throne from which I'm told
All history does unfold.
Down here it's made of wood and wire
And my body is on fire
And God is never far away.
Into the mercy seat I climb
My head is shaved, my head is wired
And like a moth that tries
To enter the bright eye
I go shuffling out of life
Just to hide in death awhile
And anyway I never lied.
My kill-hand is called E.V.I.L.
Wears a wedding band that's G.O.O.D.
`Tis a long-suffering shackle
Collaring all that rebel blood.
And the mercy seat is waiting
And I think my head is burning
And in a way I'm yearning
To be done with all this measuring of truth.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth
And anyway I told the truth
And I'm not afraid to die.
And the mercy seat is burning
And I think my head is glowing
And in a way I'm hoping
To be done with all this weighing up of truth.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth
And I've got nothing left to lose
And I'm not afraid to die.
And the mercy seat is glowing
And I think my head is smoking
And in a way I'm hoping
To be done with all this looks of disbelief.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth
And anyway there was no proof
Nor a motive why.
And the mercy seat is smoking
And I think my head is melting
And in a way I'm helping
To be done with all this twisted of the truth.
A lie for a lie
And a truth for a truth
And I've got nothing left to lose
And I'm not afraid to die.
And the mercy seat is melting
And I think my blood is boiling
And in a way I'm spoiling
All the fun with all this truth and consequence.
An eye for an eye
And a truth for a truth
And anyway I told the truth
And I'm not afraid to die.
And the mercy seat is waiting
And I think my head is burning
And in a way I'm yearning
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
A life for a life
And a truth for a truth
And anyway there was no proof
But I'm not afraid to tell a lie.
And the mercy seat is waiting
And I think my head is burning
And in a way I'm yearning
To be done with all this measuring of truth.
An eye for an eye
And a truth for a truth
And anyway I told the truth
But I'm afraid I told a lie.
YOU SHOULD BE DEAD BY NOW
(Written by Anders Manga)
At the breaking of dawn the mind returns erosion
The return of the phase and the dreadful non-indulgent
I see you walking away, Walking away the seed sown deep within
And the frown on your face tells the
emptiness placed on you once again
You ask the Vampires to have their Way, On this darkening dreadful day
And the righteous will light your fire, to burn your misery and stoke your cries / With your subtle, thrashing rancid growl - the madness will
return somehow / I'd Love to Stay but You Should Be Dead by Now
With a twist of your wrist and the smile on your lips is the mission really over?
As the grey in your brain collapses and drains to an absolute Disorder
I see you fading away, fading away the inception of revenge
And the patience you waste on this vulnerable place had you shed your second skin
You ask the Vampires to have their Way, On this darkening dreadful day
And the righteous will light your fire, to burn your misery and stoke your cries / With your subtle, thrashing rancid growl - the madness will
return somehow / I'd Love to Stay but You Should Be Dead by Now
They draw the curtain for you / You await your private saint /
All perfect words spilled for you / A Connection bound by fate
