- 4 O'Clock
4 o'Clock
4 o'Clock
Never let me sleep
I close my eyes and pray
For the garish light of day
Like a frightened child I run
From the sleep that never comes
- Across The Sky
See beyond the moment
Think beyond the day
Hear the word
My voice will not be cast away
Fatalistic fortune
Ever near the end
Love goes on
But Time does not return again
- By the sword
"Days of old," I tell my restless mind
Searching mountains, fields, and meadows green
What is it my heart can hope to find
All I long for I have never seen
Tales of glory written in the dust
Tapestries of deepest purple gold
Legends carved in stone tell me I must
Journey through the mist and bitter cold
- Castle Down
You can see that I swim
Through the sea of painful
You have watched as I pull
Myself from the floor
And you were there when I
Built my tower like pebbles in the rain
Trying to balance all that I had left
With what I didn't have anymore
- Chambermaid
Show your face
Don't hide
Take off the mask now
Underneath is a deep dark secret
Take me for a ride
Upon your white horse
Take your love
'Cause I don't want to keep it
- Close
I had you so close
And you didn’t even know
I cherished every turn of your voice
And thrilled when you laughed
And died at each offered word
Which meant you didn’t long to leave
And I tried not to seem
Too happy
- Dead Is The New Alive
Dead is the new alive
Despair’s the new survival
A pointless point of view
Dead is the new alive
Despair’s the new survival
A pointless point of view
Give in give in give in give in
- Don't Blame Me
The sun goes down the same as it did before
The roses die as their petals fall to the floor
The opera was always an awful bore
So don't blame me
Your poetry was never in vast supply
So if you're less than inspired, I wouldn't cry
Your broken heart is hardly the reason why
- Ever
I've been racing for you honey
But you take your love
From under my feet
The very moment I arrive
I hold the invitation in my hand
You smile and I don't understand
When you tell me the writing ain't yours
You were the one thing I could count on
- Everybody's Girl
Before a thousand grasping hands
In a glaring light she stands
Trying hard to meet demands
Everybody's girl
- Faces Like Mine
You say you’re curious
Can’t leave a thing to your imagination
I wish you’d close your eyes
But oh you seem so serious
I should enjoy the sweet interrogation
You start to hypnotize me
I should know by telling you
I’m flattered by your interest
- Find Me A Man
Find me a man who would die for me
Find me a time that is past
Find me an ocean without a sea
And I will follow at last
Find me a man who would die for me
Find me a time that is past
Find me an ocean without a sea
- Gentlemen Aren't Nice
Once upon a time I thought
"What's the one thing I haven't got?"
There's not a single thing in this world I couldn't buy
That's when a gentleman caught my eye
Once or twice we went around
But now I'll tell you the thing I've found
You shouldn't make your move until you know the price
- Girls Just Wanna Have Fun - Девчонки просто хотят веселиться
I come home in the morning light
My mother says when you gonna live your life right
Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones
And girls just want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun
The phone rings in the middle of the night
My father yells what you gonna do with your life
- Gloomy Sunday
Sunday is gloomy,
My hours are slumberless
Dearest the shadows
I live with are numberless
Little white flowers
Will never awaken you
Not where the black coach of
sorrow has taken you
- God Help Me
God help me
I don't see
How I can live this way
Any I don't know why he's
Touching me
Won't you shine in my direction and help me
Won't you lend me your protection and help me
- Goodbye
And so I've said too much and not enough
And so the play is finally at an end
You never had the care to call my bluff,
and so I must be pleased to be your friend
But what then was the purpose of this game?
I never really had a chance to win
It's true, I rather like who I became
But what am I to do with who I've been?
- Goodnight, Sweet Ladies
Goodnight, sweet ladies
Goodnight, sweet friends
You lie but sleeping
Someday we will meet again
With rosemary green and bright
You’re not forgotten. Eternal night
Won’t fade your memory, dim your light
- Gothic Lolita
How old are you?
I'm older than you'll ever be
I've been dead a thousand years
And lived only two or three
I don't mind telling you
My life was ended by your hand
The kind of murder where nobody dies
But I don't suppose you'd understand
- Hollow Like My Soul
You think that you'll get by
You will die
You will cry
When you think that you'll survive
Just don't try
Run and hide
My eyes are hollow like my soul
- I Know Where You Sleep
I know
The sickening thoughts that slither around your head
I know
The gluttonous guilt that buried me in your bed
Manipulate me if you can
Go on and fool me like your biggest fan
I know
- I Remember Mornings
I remember mornings
I remember stars
I remember sunlight and moonlight and twilight and sky
I remember all these things, but why
This is no place for memories
This is no place for tears
These long-forgotten memories
- I Want My Innocence Back
I want my innocence back
And if you can't give it to me
I will cut you down
And I will run you through
With the dagger you sharpened
On my body and soul
Before you slit me in two
And then devoured me whole
- I Want My Innonce Back
I want my innocence back
And if you can't give it to me
I will cut you down
And I will run you through
With the dagger you sharpened
On my body and soul
Before you slit me in two
And then devoured me whole
- If You Feel Better
If you feel better
Telling me I'm cruel
Saying I'm unfeeling
I don't mind
If it's necessary
If it helps you out
Crying that I'm heartless
It's alright
- In The Lake
In the lake
You will find me
Behind your house
Behind your house
- Juliet
You're in my stars you know
Don't need no crystal ball to tell me so
Whispering in the air
Hoping that my words find you somewhere
Even when I close my eyes
I'll never recreate the Time that flies
The consequence is hanging there
The sky will fall but I don't care
- Let The Record Show
Let the Record Show
Turning tricks with absent guile
Reeling in your crooked smile
Why did I turn to you?
I only wanted a hand to pour my heart into
And now I'll bump my grind through another night
Lose my mind in another fight
- Liar
I want to hold you to the sun,
I want to be your faithful one,
I want to show you all the beauty
You don't even know you hold.
I'm hurting you
For your own good,
I'd die for you,
You know I would.
- Mad Girl
Mad girl
Can you believe
What they’ve done to you?
Wouldn’t they stop
When you asked them to leave you alone
In all your faerie tales
How did the prince say he loved you?
How did your father die?
- Marry me
Marry me, he said, through his rotten teeth, bad breath, and then
Marry me instead of that strapping young goatherd, but when
I was in his bed, and my father had sold me
I knew I hadn't any choice, hushed my voice, did what any girl would do and
When I'm beheaded at least I was wedded
And when I am buried at least I was married
I'll hide my behavior with wine as my savior
- Medicate With Tea
I don't do crack, I've never seen cocaine
And fortunately I rarely pop an Aspirin when in pain
'Cause I wanna be - of alcohol or any drug at all - completely free
But I self-medicate with tea
(doot-da-doot-doot)
I know just where to go to get my fix:
The beverage aisle
At Starbucks, I confess, I get my kicks
- Misery Loves Company
Its not the time
Its not the place
I"m just another pretty face
So don"t come any closer
Your not the first
Your not the last
How many more, don"t even ask
Your one more dead composer
- Miss Lucy Had Some Leeches
Miss Lucy had some leeches
Her leeches liked to suck
And when they drank up all her blood
She didn't give a
Funny when the doctors
Had locked her in her cell
Miss Lucy screamed all night that they
Should go to bloody
- O Mistress Mine
O mistress mine, where are you roaming?
O stay and here! Your true love’s coming
That can sing both high and low;
Trip no further, pretty sweeting,
Journeys end in lovers meeting,
Every wise man’s son doth know.
What is love? ‘Tis not hereafter;
- Opheliac
"Emilie Autumn Opheliac "
I'm your Opheliac
I've been so disillusioned
I know you'd take me back
But still I feign confusion
I couldn't be your friend
My world was too unstable
- Photographic Memory
You’re not so far away
You’re sitting in the space between the night and day
And so I’ll wait for the sound of your footsteps
The tea that’s brewed too strong
The part of me that’s waited patiently for oh so long
At least I try
But I’m relying
On my photographic memory
- Rant I
soulless mindless
walking sex-drives
hearing nothing but their own words
reverberating inside their heads so loud
they think they fill up the world
with their wisdom
imaginationless prating slaves
corrupt with idleness looking for a
- Remember
Like a dream I had
In subconscious deep
Here you come again
Only in my sleep
And I remember you
I remember you
Like a memory
of a Time gone by
- Rose Red
Rose Rose Rose Rose
Will I ever see thee wed
I will mary at thy will sire
At thy will
Ding dong ding dong
Wedding Bells on an april morn
Carver your name on a moss-covered stone
- Scavenger
I am a scavenger
and I’ll take what I need
This isn’t personal
We’ve all got mouths to feed
Supply and demand
Supply and demand
I am a scavenger
A resurrectionist
- Shallot
She's locked up with a spinning wheel
She can't recall what it was like to feel
She says, "This room's gonna be my grave
And there's no one who can save me,"
She sits down to her colored thread
She knows lovers waking up in their beds
She says, "How long can I live this way
Is there someone I can pay to let me go
- Shalott
Заточена подле веретена она
Позабыла, какого это было - ощущать.
Говорит :"Эта келья могилою мне станет"
"И избавленья не от кого ждать"
Усаживаясь за пряжу, зная, что
Любящие сейчас пробуждаются рядом друг с другом,
Изрекла:" Сколько это может продолжаться!?"
"Неужто мне некому откуп за свободу дать?"
- Swallow
I'll tell the truth: all of my songs
Are pretty much the fucking same
I'm not a faerie but I need
More than this life so I became
This creature representing more to you
Than just another girl
And if I had a chance to change my mind
I wouldn't for the world
- Take The Pill
Take the pill that makes you weaker
Take the pill that makes you sick
Take the pill or you’ll be sorry
Take this bloody pill and make it quick
Take the pill that kills your sex drive
Take the pill that makes you cry
Take the pill that burns your insides
- Tea Will Rock You
Muffin you're a mouse in a big house
Playin' in your cage gonna be a big rat some day
You got cake on yo' face
You big disgrace
Drippin' your tea all over the place
TEA WILL TEA WILL ROCK YOU
TEA WILL TEA WILL ROCK YOU
- The Art Of Suicide
The art of suicide
Nightgowns and hair
Curls flying every which where
The pain too pure to hide
Bridges of Sighs
Meant to conceal lover’s lies
Under the arches
Of moonlight and ky
- Time for Tea
There was a little girl
Who had a little curl
Right in the middle of her forehead
And when she was good
She was very, very good
But when she was bad,
She was HOMICIDAL!
- We Want Them Young
Doctors:
We want them young
We want them fresh
We want them
We want them now
Inmates:
We want our freedom
- What If
Here you sit on your high-backed chair
Wonder how the view is from there
I wouldn't know 'cause I like to sit
Upon the floor, yeah upon the floor
If you like we could play a game
Let's pretend that we are the same
But you will have to look much closer
Than you do, closer than you do
