- Animals
They descend upon the city like flies
Spraying their eggs into a dead dog's eyes
It's England on a Saturday night
I wish I could be like them and I try
But I find it more rewarding to walk along the river
Picturing my body discarded in the water
I wonder who will do it and I wonder what they're doing right now
They opened up the sewers tonight
- black holes in the sand
in the small hours I realise what I have done
in the small hours I realise what I have done
I held the hand that threw the stone that killed the bird that woke the city
I held the hand that threw the stone that killed the bird that woke the city and I could not feel the flower in my hand I could not feel the cracks beneath my feet and black holes in the sand
- Bluebeard
you stood for all that's true and honest it makes you feel hollow you can't decide which path to follow you dig your own hole are you coming out tonight? we're going for a drive the answer's in your eyes the voice inside your head says stay at home and stare at the demons that thrive inside a tale left half told wouldn't you love to know how the person inside survives is it any wonder you get sucked under and you can't rely on those you turn to they turn against you you don't know why you whored those values which burn your soul blue

- Diane
Hey little girl do you need a ride?
I've got room in my wagon why don't you hop inside
We could cruise down Robert Street all night long
But I think I'll just rape you and kill you instead

Find me the captain
Tell him i want to know
Just who is steering and who’s merely holding on
And when the next wave is the last wave
I’ll drag him downwards to the engine room
And never let go
Oh nicole
From the moment we met we let it get out of control
- See My Friends
Gravenhurst - See My Friends
See my friends,
See my friends,
Laying' cross the river.
She is gone,
She is gone, and now there's no one left except my friends
- Song Among The Pine
Song among the pine
Cones and needles lie atop the dark soil
They will come for me
With searchlights streaming through the cedar trees
Cold ash smother the fire
Cold ash smother the fire
- Song To The Siren
В переливающихся пустынных океанах
Я изо всех сил пытался улыбнуться,
В то время как твои поющие глаза и пальцы
Любовно тянули меня к твоему острову.
И ты пела: "Плыви ко мне, плыви ко мне,
Дай мне тебя окутать.
Я здесь, я здесь,
Жду, чтобы тебя обнять."
- The Collector
so here is justice
another someone
disappears last week
you say you saw someone hanging around
did he look like me?
twenty-five missing now
no-one looks to me
the land of the free can longer deal
- The Diver
It's getting darker
And I'm still swimming
It hits me again
I'm getting deeper
And I'm still swimming
It hits me again
- The Prize
Every time you come around
the warning sign in my head just gets drowned out
by waves of anticipation
breaking vows as I make them
to chase that dream just one last time around
(chase that dream just one last time around)
Bad karma hangs like cancerous lanterns
- Velvet Cell
To understand the killer
I must become the killer
And i don’t need this violence anymore
But now i’ve tasted hatred i want more
The velvet cell within men
Gloriously rusted masks
Grey death heart crocuses
And i had always thought
