She Talks to Angels she never mentions the word addiction in certain company yes, she'll tell you she's an orphan after you meet her family she paints her eyes as black as night, now - pulls those shades down tight yeah, she gives a smile when the pain comes - the pain's gonna make everything alright says she talks to angels - they call her out by her name... she keeps a lock of hair in her pocket - she wears a cross around her neck yes, the hair is from a little boy - and the cross is someone she has not met, not yet says she talks to angels - they call her out by her name... she don't know no lover - none that i ever seen yes, to her that ain't nothing - but to me, yeah me, it's everything











Sting Me if you feel like a riot, then don't you deny it - put your good foot forward no need for heroics i just want you to show it - now's the time to shine your independence is a half ass deliverance - the train left the station the recognition of the same old condition - your symptoms showing through well regardless of the truth - you still act so aloof in the face of your judge n jury - you have the nerve to say not guilty but can you sting me - can you sting me - right to my rotten bones well, the bells ring out for the crimes of the century - by courtesy of your mother the signs reads welcome to the valley of discovery - look at what money can buy sons n daughters better open your eyes - tell me what you're seeing this submission is a tired tradition - it's everyone's sacrifice well believe you me - i've got nothing up my sleeve except a heart and a chip on my shoulder - yes i'm young and don't like getting older yeah, but can you sting me - can you sting me - right to my rotten bones come on my sweet little thing - what new things can you show me today i got one question, i believe it's subjective - what is a wasp without her sting? i don't want to sound bitter - yeah you touch me just like murder living ain't so easy - when all i want from you is to sting me











Remedy baby, baby why cant you sit still - who killed that bird out on you window sill are you the reason that he broke his back - did i see you laugh about that if i come on like a dream - would you let me show you what i mean if you let me come on inside - will you let it glide can i have some remedy - remedy for me please cuz if i had some remedy - i'd take enough to please me baby, baby why did you dye your hair - why you always keeping with your mothers dare baby, why's who's who, who know you too - tell me, did the other children scold on you if i come on like a dream - would you let me show you what i mean if you let me come on inside - will you let it slide











Thorn In My Pride wake me when the day breaks - show me how the sun shines tell me about your heartaches - who could be so unkind do you dream to touch me - and smile down deep inside or could you just kill me - it's hard to make up your mind, sometimes my angels, my devils, my thorn in my pride... are you wanting inspiration - you spill your secrets on me then you tell me with a whisper - of things that will never be do you hear me breathing - does it make you want to scream did you ever like a bad dream - sometimes life is obscene my angels, my devils, my thorn in my pride... lover, cover me with your sleep - let your love light shine lover, cover me with a good dream - let your love light shine











Bad Luck Blue Eyes Goodbye with my winter time, my idols and stage fright in another night, where the lights are loud and bright one dream from waking up saved, too shy to hold in the rage i know no luxury of knowing what your eyes read i know one million ways to always pick the wrong thing to say a love that you never gave, always a time zone away it's not out of spite, i know whats right bad luck blue eyes goodbye... sometimes a memory only sees what it wants to believe and whats filled in between are days and nights that don't mean a thing such a simple suicide - a second chance never tried and you don't understand - i need a helping hand so you think that you've seen it all - is that a fact so out your mouth a dictionary, spouts about this and that you got your dos, your don'ts, because and why i don't trust no one who don't take their own advice bad luck blue eyes goodbye











Sometimes Salvation to lessen my troubles i stopped hanging out with vultures and empty saviours like you i wish i had a nickel for every miracle that you easily tricked me into you can lead a horse to water - but faith is another matter so don't you surrender - cuz sometimes salvation in the eye of the storm i've no time for accusations or conversations on all the bad, bad things you do. just a note from your jailer - drugs and the relations to all the people around you you can lead a horse to water - but faith is another matter so don't you surrender - cuz sometimes salvation in the eye of the storm i've kept secret your superstitions and all its twisted wisdom that i fell into sister can you try and find me...











No Speak No Slave rooster crows at the break of dawn - a mother dies without her only son a doctor laughs in the face of disease - i never once heard a preacher say please and you, you want to be heard - but none of us understand a word and you, you want to be free - then don't speak like a slave to me. policemen who break the laws - politicians rise and fall a baby crying for its mothers milk - a daddy's secret hidden guilt and you, you want to be heard - but none of us understand a word and you, you want to be free - then don't speak like a slave to me











A Conspiracy did you ever hear the one about last year it was all a lie - ain't it funny how the time flies what we gonna do baby, what is left for us to prove i've never stolen nothing, not a thing - tried to stay away form this year's big thing ain't as easy as it seems to find a mutual dream can you tell me wrong from right do you know when to freeze or take flight can you tell me more or less i got to know-confess don't neglect me - come be my conspiracy... now you got a question about your answer - say try your adam's apple you talk it try it bite it right - so, now you want to fight - ok let's step outside - i got tradition in addition my definition it don't hold me back - well what you think about that what you don't understand - this is a very old land











Wiser Time no time left now for shame - horizon behind me, no more pain windswept stars blink and smile - another song, another mile you read the line every time - ask me about crime in my mind ask me why another read song - funny but i bet you never left home on a good day, its not every day - we can part the sea and on a bad day, its not every day - glory beyond our reach seconds until sunrise - tired but wiser for the time lightning 30 miles away - three thousand more in two days











Blackberry hey, blackberry - how you taste so sweet hey, blackberry - tell me what you see tell me is it interesting hey, blackberry - pay some attention to me hey, blackberry - look at my bumblebee hey, blackberry - you know he never stings and he only hums for me i need some l-o-v-e-n to make me happy you got to be l-u-c-k-y to git with a girl like blackberry hey, my cherry - coming up my street hey, my cherry - you make it hard to breathe look what you've done to me hey, my cherry - be sure to keep your nose clean











Midnight From the Inside Out you, with your fast and furlined mind - with your disregard of time, virtue, horizon here where the angels never sleep - where the water's dark and deep you breathe molasses midnight from the inside out - turn around and they all fall down screaming red and the lights go out - turn around and they all fall down you, madness dripping from your tongue - while starting at the sun you speak explosion - up, with the flies around the moon needle, mirror, spoon and cotton candy











Lickin your eyes they look like two bullet holes - and you don't ever say maybe you knock me out with the way you talk - i like the way you say "baby" you want a mouthful of scorpio - yeah, but my poison be tasty you bite my finger and say "control" - you won't let me be lazy night and day - like a mule, i'm kickin - girl you gonna catch a lickin fire out of the mouths of babes - got you actin so crazy doorknob queen of the underage - got me rantin and ravin see the bruise you left on my page - now the game's getting tricky left alone in my own parade - while the bomb just keeps tickin night and day - like a mule, i'm kickin - girl you gonna catch a lickin do you want to do it all with me - do you want to scream and bleed for me you can have all of me, all of me your teeth taste just like razorblades - yeah you got my tongue ready you fill me up with your politics - and leave me so heavy











Soul Singing i've been down - cascading and blue without a sound now i've traded my black feathers for a crown - so feed me milk n honey lay me down lay me down look around show me holy places not yet found let's disappear and we'll hide underground we'll get high and we'll feel safe n sound it comes around... you got my soul singing, my soul singing... home bound tired of tired of running town to town tired of my heart turned upside down now my life's a smile not a frown the sound...
