Creeper 03:59
You creep up, like a snake being charmed. You move on, in the heat of the dark. Desecrate me, breaking what you heal. Consecrate me, reaping what you steal. Speak in tongues, when you come undone. String me along, when I slip, when we fall. Liberate me, run from what you feel. Complicate me, question what is real. Decimate me, hide what you reveal. Violate my sanity, all the violent ecstasy I feel.

Run run run for a harder fall when you take your shot to lose it all. Down down down from a deeper drop, now just give it all or give it up. You see through me, you don't know me well. No, no, don't stop to think twice from the top top top of a steeper climb. One deep breath, now let it fly. Make it stop. We're way too high. You won't save me when I'm breaking down. Every future's past,  lost in your caress. Bracing for the crash. Falling far too hard, far too fast. Run run run running down the line, now just break the glass, now this is mine. You don't know me well. Every future's past, lost in your caress. Bracing for the crash.  Falling far too hard, far too fast. Too hard too fast. Too hard too fast. Too hard too fast. Falling far too hard, far too fast.

S'enfuir 03:42
Vous dites au revoir et ne laissez pas. Un partie de vous, un partie de moi. Plus grand que je pourrais etre. Prenez la lumiere, laissez le noir. Prenez le violon, et laissez la case. Je suis donc reste loin. S'enfuir. Juste fuir. Vous pouvez deposer vos cartes et ne jamais jouer. S'enfuir. Ils se rassemblant Pour voir saigner. Et la riviere coule dans le mer. Vous etes une partie de moi. S'enfuir. Juste fuir. Vous pouvez deposer vos bras et ne jamais se battre. S'enfuir. Vous etes une partie de moi.

Trust Me 03:21
When I was born, my daddy ran. My momma told me, don't trust a man. She said,  You can't trust anybody, no, not a soul. You can't trust anyone, but you can trust me. When I was younger, I went to school. My teacher told me  I was a fool. She said, You can't trust anybody, no, not a soul. You can't trust anyone,  but you can trust me.  When I got older, I met a man.  He said he'd love me as best he can. He said, You can't trust anybody, no, not a soul. You can't trust anyone,  but you can trust me. Yeah, you can trust me.

Treachery 02:51
I don't really wanna' be the one, to make your dreams come true. And you would always call it us, but no, It's just you. It's all you. And I don't really wanna' be the one, the one to make things right. I don't wanna' keep it up when you should let it die. Uh huh, let it die. Ooh, treachery surrounds you. Ooh, villainy is on the rise. You were never really listening. You didn't have the time. You were fixed on getting yours, but now how 'bout mine? Uh huh, I want mine. Ooh, treachery surrounds you. Ooh, villainy is on the rise. You were bent on getting yours, but now how 'bout mine? Uh huh, I want mine. Uh huh. I want mine.

Chasing shadows, chasing time, into thin air. Dirty faces and dirty minds getting nowhere. Always in a hurry. You, the judge and jury. And every shadow that you chase keeps escaping. And you say that everything's okay when you feel nothing everyday. Don't tell me that it isn't true, 'cause I see you. You're as good as what you give but you give nothing. And I can't tell you what it is  that keeps us going. You, the judge and jury, lose your fear and fury, from the safety of your cage, never changing. And everything you say you'll make  is left in shambles in your wake. You try to find a good excuse, but I see you. I see you.

I'm 28 02:38
I'm 28, it's getting late What have I got to do? My time is going, my fears are growing, My chances now are few Lacquers, lotions, sprays and potions Scented, unguent, mild and pungent Lipstick, pancake, shadow for the eyes... It's all been advertised But... it's getting me nowhere I'm 28, it's getting late What have I got to do? My time is going, my fears are growing My chances now are few Dress revealing, sex appealing Fur and feather, suede and leather, Naughty, haughty, sure to glamorize... It's all been advertised But... it's getting me nowhere It's nice to be respectable, Saintly, sweet and fair But I don't want to finish off alone... In a rocking chair I'm 28, it's getting late What have I left to do?

Hurricane 04:17
She could keep you in her pocket, 'cause she makes you feel so small. And you say you won't give into it, but she's going to take it all. You don't fool anyone. She's like a hurricane. And you keep hanging on, till you see her again. Ooh her kisses are so venomous, and you're coming back for more and more and more. And you fear that this is dangerous 'cause you've seen it all before. You don't fool anyone. She's like a hurricane. And you keep hanging on and on, till you see her again. That look of love is a mirage. Now you say you hate the drama but you know that you're the one who lets it in. It's so easy to remember, but so lovely to forget, forget, forget. You don't fool anyone. She's like a hurricane. And you keep hanging on and on and on, till you see her again. Till you see her again. Till you see her, till you feel her, till you see her again.

If I Could 03:21
How could I tell you all I would do for you? I would surrender all that I have to prove I would move all the hills and the mountains themselves if I could. If I could. How could I show you all I would give to you? All of the riches in all of the world wouldn't do. I would give you the sun and your dreams still to come if I could. If I could. And though you never may know, I'll find a way so it shows. I would give you my soul since you gave me the world, and it's true that I would, If I could. If I could. If I could. If I could.
