"For The Rest Of My Life"

"For The Rest Of My Life"


Look around
Do you see?
Everything is fading
Everything just fades away

Look around
Do you see?
Everyone looks lonely
But there's only you and me

Do you wonder
How we came to be here?
Do you wonder
If we could find us from here?

Look inside
Do you feel
Anything but bitter?
Anything but sad and lost?

Look inside
Do you dream of a time that's better?
Do you ever dream of me?

And my heart breaks
When you cry in your sleep
So I can't stay here
Hoping I'm something you'll keep

I will love you
Miss you
All of my life

I will wonder
About you
All of my life.

I will need you
Want you
All of my life

But I've lost you
Lost you
For the rest of my life

"For You"

"For You"


I call for you
I'm calling for you
Calling you you

If you walk in the dark
I will shine for you
If you drift on the wind
I will look for you
I will look for you
I will look for you

If you hurt everything
I would bleed for you
If you reach out for me
I'll be there

You are why I'm still breathing
You are why I'm still breathing here
For you

I'm calling for you
I'm calling
Calling for you

I'm calling
I'm calling for you
For you

If you push me away
I will wait for you
If you love someone else
I will wait for you
And if god calls your name
I will dye for you
If you reach out for me
I'll be there

You are why I'm still breathing
You are why I'm still breathing here
For you

"Friends"

"Friends"


See the strange boy keeping to the shadows
He's a very good friend of mine
I've seen you running from the ladies
Don't tell me you're not that kind
I've got the time if you've got the money
Mister you'll be pleased you'll see
We'll meet by the tubeway as the screamer cries eleven
And you can have your way with me
You're gonna make me feel so cold

See my one love talking to the pretty boy
I never did like her taste
My skin is rubber on a skeletal body
I'm physically going to waste
Feel my eyes and the tongue of a killer
I'm a humanoid logic machine
Don't touch me with your painted little fingers
'Cos I know where they've been
You're not gonna put those scabs on me

I must hide from a thousand grinning faces
All sucking from my crazy mind
Take a ride out in my imagery of ages
And heaven knows what you will find
I've no time for the chitter-chatter ladies
I'm so busy trying to break this wall
Hear my words 'cos emotion now is leaving
You see I'm really not a human at all
And I don't think I wanna stay

"From Russia Infected"

"From Russia Infected"


Seen the man?
New disease
Everybody's infected.

Seen the man?
He'll storm your heart
Everybody believes.

Seen the man?
Sly new game
Kiss another cute baby.

Seen the man?
No war machine
So everybody wants peace?

Everybody's infected
Everybody believes.

I've been looking for something
But it just gets harder
I could look for ever
What am I going to do.

Storm the heart
Boy threw up
Everybody's disgusted.

Storm the heart
Girl went down
Everybody looked shocked.

Storm the heart
New young thing
Everybody's obsession.

Storm the heart
'Levi' jeans
Think it's cool to kill.

Everybody's infected
Everybody believes.

One more reason
One more lie.

Dreams are cruel
This is life
It replaced religion.

Change your mind
Make it mine
Everybody looks sad.

Dirty film
Ten years old
This is Russia infected.

Party time
Time runs out
Everybody go home.

Everybody's infected
Everybody believes.

"Generator"

"Generator"


We generate heat
We generate emotion
We generate a feeling
That is better left here
Than a memory on a wall

I'd rather cry than forget you

We generate pain
We generate suspicion
We generate a rumour that's sick
But a rumour that is probably true

I'd rather die than forget you

(I won't let my dreams slip away from me)
I'm talking sex motion
I'm talking 'bout fashion
I'm talking 'bout skin games
I'm talking 'bout secrets

(And I won't let my heart run away with me)
I'm talking temptation
I'm talking 'bout memories
I'm talking 'bout feelings
I'm talking 'bout emotion

We generate lies
We generate pictures
We generate a video film
That I couldn't let my best friend see

I'd rather lose than forgive you

We generate shame
We generate secrets
We generate a reason for living
And we generate a reason for not

I'd rather hurt than forget you

I can't believe that I'm here
I can't believe what I've seen
I can't believe what I'm doing to you

 

[fox69]

"God Only Knows"

"God Only Knows"


I was waiting for something
I was listening to my breathing
Like a man listening to life

I was looking for fire
It could take me or leave me
It could all just burn away

The oxygen law
It reminds me

I'd been surrounded for hours
By the sound of thinking metal
And I knew something was wrong

I can tell you what fear is
It is the smell of burning
And I'd been close once before

I waited a long time
How I survived God only knows
It seemed like forever
How I survived God only knows
I don't like the memory
How I survived God only knows
How I survived God only knows

I remember the feeling
I'll remember forever
How it all just came apart

I don't believe in praying
I don't believe in a God
Now I question everything

The dreamer is gone
I'm an old man

I could tell you of horror
I could show you the pieces
But I just want to forget

I'm not sure if I saw it
I'm not sure if I heard it
I just screamed 'I can't get out'
'I can't get out'

 

[fox69]

"Halo"

"Halo"


Who hasn't made
A big mistake
Betrayed a love
Or turned to hate?
You think it's you

Who hasn't told
A small white lie
Or felt revenge
Was justified?
You think it's you

Who hasn't had
A secret need
A truth to hide
desires to feed?
You think it's you

Who has the strength
To save us all
To make us clean
And break our fall?
You think It's You

Does God bleed on the word?
Does God bleed on your white halo?

I looked inside
A big mistake
I'd make it stop
But it's too late.
I Think It's You

I've never been
Afraid to face
A fear but there's
No darker place
I Think than You.

Something crawls
And something lies
Something breathes
And something dies.
I think it's you

Does God bleed on the word?
Does God bleed on your white halo?

 

[fox69]

"Haunted"

"Haunted"


And I can not be saved
Not by you
Not by God
I want to bleed

And I can hardly breath
Look at me
Falling down
Before your eyes

All I've needed
Takes me away from you
All I've wanted
Takes me away from you
All I live for
Takes me away from you
All I'd die for
Takes me away from you

And this is not my voice
Not my face
Not my life
It belongs to you

And you will not believe
The things I've seen
The things I've done
All in your name

All I've needed
Takes me away from you
All I've wanted
Takes me away from you
All I live for
Takes me away from you
All I'd die for
Takes me away from you

 

[fox69]

"Heart"

"Heart"


Does she make you laugh?
Does she make you cry?
Does she call your name?
Let me tell you why.

Have you ever tried to look into her eyes?
Have you ever tried to look into her heart?

There is no-one home.
Time will heal you
Time heals everything
Just an empty room.
Time will help you
Time helps you forget
There's no tears for you.
Time will heal you
Time heals everyone
There's no heart at all.
Time will help you
Time helps you forget me.

She will change your world.
She will change your mind.
She will change your rules.
She will make you blind.

You will never try to look into her eyes.
You will never try to look into her heart.

See there's no-one home.
Time will heal you
Time heals everything
See an empty room.
Time will help you
Time helps you forget
See no tears for you.
Time will heal you
Time heals everyone
See no heart at all.
Time will help you
Time helps you forget me.

I'll leave you
You'll try to forget.
I'll haunt you.
Like someone haunts me.
I'll leave you.
You'll try to forgive.
I'll haunt you.
Like someone haunts me.

Does she laugh at you
Like she laughed at me?
Does she break your heart
Like she broke mine?

 

[fox69]

"Here Am I"

"Here Am I"


I'll say good-bye for now
All this love burns away
Did you love for long?
I'll let the boys come in
They'll crawl for you
Here am I
Not talking
Here am I
Not sleeping
Here am I
There's no more I can do
Here am I
There's no more I can say
Here am I
Not talking
Here am I
Not sleeping
Here am I
There's no more I can do
Here am I
There's no more I can say to you
I'm so tired of this
Please send in someone else
You play games with me
But did you win?
How do you feel?
