See the dwarves and see the giants
Which one would you choose to be?
And if you can't get that together
Here's the answer, here's the key
You can freeze
Like a 30th century man
Like a 30th century man
Play it cool
Like a 30th century man
Like a 30th century man
I'll save my breath and take it with me
'Til a hundred years or so
Shame you...
I've never seen you when you're smiling
It really gets under my skin
You're never touched by another
I still can't guess what you're after
It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
It's the colour of your skin
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
Your skin is black metallic
I think of you when you're sleeping
And all the secrets that you're keeping
You can't s...
I don't know why
It feels so different
It takes some time
Before I'm on my knees
I could pretend
To understand it
I see no end
To this confusion
Say what you say
Do what you do
It's no problem
Say how you'll be
Disguise it from me
It's no problem
Oh yeah
I dont know why
It feels so special
It takes no time
Before I'm on my head ???
Oh yeah
Say what you say
Do what you do
It's no problem
Say ho...
Another year
A time event
To take you there
Another time
Another time
Another year
I make it fail
Another time
Some time to kill
Come back to love
Return to love
So don't reap all
It's a small part
The friction starts
Come back again
Come back again
Come back again
Come back again
Come back again
Come back again
She said
Blow the light away
Come back again
Come back again
You never missed
I te...
Lying on the floor
Where the colour doesn't show
Through the open door
Is a place where I won't go
Time will tie my hands
The willingness to try
Maybe it's inside
I know where it runs to
It takes up all my time
I know where I want to run
It crashes through my mind
It's enough to make you
Crawl on your knees and
Crawl on your knees and
Crawl on your knees and
Crawl over me,
Under me, over me
A ...
Don't look back
Please don't cry
I have this need
You must oblige me
There's no way out
So please don't try
I fill your mouth
I hear you cry
As you don't understand me anymore
I tie your wrists
Leave you bleeding, leave you raw
And fantasize, kid myself that you want more
[faint murmuring]
I'm sorry now
Didn't mean to hurt
I couldn't stop
It felt so good
[scream]
As you don't understand me any...

I'm curious to know exactly how you are
I keep my distance but my distance is too far
It reassures me just to know that you're okay
But I don't want you to go on leading me this way
And I don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know if you are less than lonely
Don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know, don't want to know
The day you left me left m...
Right now I feel like/we lack something far gone ???
Stripped down
Seems like everything I did was wrong
Well, maybe
Delicately laid to rest
In the house of mummy's bless ???
Follow me inside
Delicately free of mind
A vacuum all the time
But it leaves me blind
Find out
Peel away the layers of my skin
Baby
But be sure
Brace yourself for what lies within
Baby
Delicately laid to rest
In the house...
Can't even think about tomorrow
I feel so bad that I can't swallow
Aah-oh
Aah-oh
Don't even think I might forgive it
You let me down again
You let me down again
You let me down again
You let me down again
I can't imagine pain much deeper
Hot pleasure dripping from my fingers
Aah-oh
Aah-oh
You let me down again
You let me down again
You let me down again
You let me down again
You let me down ag...
Bury myself on a bed of nails
Killing myself cause it never fails
With you
I've gotta get all of you
I've gotta get all of you
I only want all of you
I've gotta get all of you
Always goad ???
You never try
I wish you would
I don't know why
Understand the need to rush
Am I wanting far too much
Killing myself on a foolish dream
Killing myself cause I want to be with you
I've gotta get all of you...
You don't know anything at all
Excuses always seem to fool you
I cannot come in case you call
All I can really say
It drags me down, down
I'm hot and cold all over
I'm hot and cold all over
Your love weighs down my shoulders
I'm hot and cold all over
Your love is such a painful thing
She knows where she has to go
She knows that I don't want to burn her
A woman's feet begins to slow ???
I'll ca...
You've been so alone
You haven't found me at all
And I find it so hard
I find it so dark
It's time
It's time
It's what you say now
It's what you say now
It's what you say now
I've been so cold
I'd hear you're hurting alone ???
But it's getting so long
Where have you gone
It's time
It's time
It's what you say now
It's what you say now
It's what you say now
It's what you say now
It's what you, y...

Once I had my heroes
Once I had my dreams
But all of that is changed now
Gets twisted inside out
The truth is not that comfortable, no
No
And Mother taught us patience
The virtues of restraint
And Father taught us boundaries
In honor we must go
The vanity will colour us, yeah
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when it all gets...
Life turns you upside down
You know I'm not shaking
But you always bring me down
Before I'm hanging upside down
She knows I can't take it
I can't take it
Life turns you inside out
You know I'm not faking
But you always bring me around
Before I'm hanging upside down
She knows I can't take it
I can't take it
I can't take it
I
I
I
I
