Something cold moves below I can just make out the shape of some unknown I'm far from home Something new comes into view I can just make out the face that I once knew I'm coming in two None remain, or look the same I can just make out the sound It sounds like rain It feeds my flame
3.
As the hour is closing And the candle’s burned through the floor Don't look it in the face You better leave this place alone And when you’re out in the moonlight Don't look back don't believe your eyes On this night, many dreams ago When the magic was virgin and wild They thought it safe in the circle But the weak are the doorways unclosed Now it's happening again And it feels like this could be the end I know your fears and how it feels I know it seems like this is real I know your thoughts I know your dreams

Face down, out of breath Just praying for a painless death No hope, no chance Neck deep in your circumstance Waking up to another day More sorrow on the way You’re getting closer to the end When the devil is your only friend You’re gonna get what's coming to you Your best friend is a gun How do you live with the things you've done? You take life, that's what you do I'd take my own life if I was you Your whole life is a living wreck Here's a rope for your neck I only hope that you like it hot Cause heaven is full but hell is not Your mind is not right I'm telling you you're not wrapped tight Your friends are all gone You're going down and it won't be long One thing that I know is true They've got a place for things like you Some sinners can't be saved And there's a shadow on your grave You're gonna get what's coming to you Waking up to another day More sorrow on the way You're getting closer to the end When the devil is your only friend Your whole life is a living wreck Here's a rope for your neck I only hope that you like it hot Cause heaven is full but hell is not You're gonna get what's coming to you

The honest man walks in the light Blessed with the gift of second sight He's not afraid The price he's paid The wicked man crawls in the dark Trapped inside a hateful heart It's all gone wrong He walks alone Maybe you're just blind Clinging to your vine Truth is just a word; in case you haven't heard Open wide Step inside Don't be denied Feed the dream and it will grow Like everything that's gone before It's not enough So rise above Bitter is as bitter does So it goes for all of us You've had your say You turned away Maybe you're just blind Clinging to your vine Truth is just a word; in case you haven't heard Open wide Step inside Don't be denied Nothing in this world can last Everything in time must pass No one commands the sea and sand Free yourself from what you crave From the cradle to the grave Shed your skin and start again Maybe you're just blind Clinging to your vine Truth is just a word; in case you haven't heard Open wide Step inside Don't be denied

Creature 04:29
Creature in the green Fever underneath Here and then it's gone Seeker, on and on Sounds like thunder Looks like rain Feels like it's all happening again Sweeter is the peace Deeper, endlessly Dreamer underground Jesus upside down Sounds like thunder Looks like rain Feels like it's all happening again

Some wear the serpent's stare Some say the path is grey Some give their right to live Some make the same mistake How strange You feel No pain Until You find It's too late And your kind Will fade Some see the enemy Some find their own design Some shout the ways of doubt Some try to reason why How strange You feel No pain Until You find It's too late And your kind Will fade Strange shadows kiss your face Tears flow in crushing waves Past rows of open graves They hide in endless night With faces made of clay They need to plant the seed Let fate remove the weight How strange You feel No pain Until You find It's too late And your kind Will fade Strange shadows kiss your face Tears flow in crushing waves Past rows of open graves

Told 01:32
You told me so You told me why You told me that we should take a chance before we die I can’t explain the lapse or perforated time And now you’ve come to say goodbye I told you so I told you why I told you that you’d leave before the blood was dry Our dreams of running wild, it seems were only mine And now you’re gone, and I’ve gone blind If there’s a way to make this alright If there’s another way back home Do you have any faith in Starlight? Do you believe anything at all? They told us so

As the worm escapes the spider And drags its weight across the floor Reaching to the past in the days ahead Maybe deeper than before Have we found resolve in failure In this field where nothing grows? Is this where we tie or sever? God only knows When the worm moves along the line He's careful not to shine Lessons learned and trust forgotten And nothing changes over time Have we found resolve in failure In this field where nothing grows? Is this where we tie or sever? God only knows Where's the man who's facing nowhere? Keeping with the things you know Never-ending what's in front of you now It's just the way this has to go No pretending It's on the wall You've drawn a line in the sand No confusion You always wave that flag around Now we know where you all stand Does the worm know the ending? And all the things sure to come? As the spider multiplies and moves along You can only rise or you can only run
