The Stoves Of Dauntsey
01:25
|

As she went a gliding by, a scent so tempting from inside
The doorway of the stoves of Dauntsey
Maybe familiar, maybe not, what could be inside the pot that simmers on the stoves of Dauntsey?
It reeled her inside
A noise from behind
A key turns in the lock
Heartbeat stricken with shock
Then she learned, quite rapidly,this is not the place to be
Alone by the stoves of Dauntsey
Footsteps she hears suddenly stop
Soon she will be in the pot that simmers on the stoves of Dauntsey

Renaisseance

The next time that you come down please stay
You keep the shadows in this room away
And if you tell me thaty ou will never leave
We’ll build ourselves a world no one will believe
I know love comes alive when your presence oozes down
Love stays alive when your mist is all around
They’ll try, no doubt, to prove that you’re not there
Or write me off as crazy, maybe, I don’t care
And if you promise that you will never leave
We’ll join our afterlives forever when I cease to breathe

Scream all night til you’re blue in the face
But Nancy won’t know you’re here
Shake her bones all out of place
But Nancy won’t know you’re here
Seek intervention from above
Sing all the songs she used to love
Cry and wail up to your dying breath
Nancy doesn’t live here anymore
A thousand questions leave your lips
But Nancy doesn’t know you’re here
Tears, like rain, one final kiss
But Nancy doesn’t know you’re here
Confronting her with history
Solving sacred mysteries
Won’t stimulate a thing behind her eyes
Nancy doesn't live here anynmore

All You Ever Do
01:53
|

ll you ever do is complain
On and on, over and over again
Day in, day out, year after year
Constant whining, tantrums, tears
Every hour that you’re awake
There’s only so much one can take
A solution I have found
So let’s stop messing around
And fix this dilemma at last
Just sit back and raise a glass
To the future without you
Because you won’t be here very soon
Down in one, problem solved
Ahhhhhhh Cyanide

Hope is disappearing from my dreams
After all the curtains fall, what will be left to see?
Melancholia has gone to town
Paradise as cold as ice, it's crystal clear now
There is no further down
How do you know we're not in Hell?

Mannequin
01:58
|
|||
All alone in the furthest room, where they can't hear you crying
No one's supposed to know you're there, out of sight and mind
I want you, I need you, I love you, my mannequin
I dress you up in haute couture and make your face so pretty
Open the drapes, take your hand to dance under the stars
Hold you, absorb you, adore you, my mannequin
Everybody needs a love song
Take hope from some other failures' lines
I see the happiness in loneliness when I uncover your eyes

Venetian Blonde
02:24
|
|||
I see your shape against the light from your room
A few more hours, I'll be coming for you
Cos I want you, I want you in my heart
I like to come over when there's no one around
And find my way in without making asound
Cos I need you, I need you in my heart
When my shadow's falling, falling over you
Who knows what might happen if I wake you?
The time has come to tell you how I'm feeling one on one
Venetian blonde
When all's said and done, I'm sure we can co-exist as one
Venetian blonde
Be mine

Weirdo
01:38
|
|||
His skin is pale, his clothes are black
A trail of whispers behind his back
Never smiles, always alone
A mystery of the unknown
If they could only take an interest in their own grey lives
They just wanna know about the weirdo
That hides away from daylight
They just wanna know, about the weirdo
That shies away from you
Dark demeanour, an evil stare
Irresponsive, acutely aware
Unique aroma, intriguing walk
Cuts through the mist of idle talk
He said, she said, melodrama, rumour circle lives

Silk Tangled Lies
02:09
|
|||
The spider's happy alone with the fly
Watching the world through arachnid eyes
Statuesque, he'd rather not get involved
Quite content in his ethereal bed
Always clinging to life by a thread
Loved or loathed, makes no difference at all
Silk tangled lies, silk tangled lies
He's not hurting anyone
Silk tangled lies, silk tangled lies
Forcing that web to come undone
Maintains position no matter the threat
Greater the danger the closer they get
The faintest vibration gives them away
Silk tangled lies, silk tangled lies
He's not hurting anyone
Silk tangled lies, silk tangled lies
Forcing that web to come undone
Sweet mangled flies, black lullabies
Awaits whomever makes him strike
Goodnight

Did you think you were getting somewhere
Building a rapport maybe
Well, I'm not gonna tell ya, I will never say
Each one of their final moments shall remain a secret because...
I'm not gonna give ya, anything you need
Not for all the mercy in the world
At anytime I could grant you closure, take you to their resting place
But I'm not gonna show ya, you will never see
I will build a wall from silence daubed with my sadistic grin
Oh I'm not gonna tell ya, I will never say
I'm revealing nothing
Not for all the mercy in the world

It's about to become so frightening
More with every pendulum swing
That pile of clothes won't resemble your clothes anymore
The darkness is truly enlightening when all of your favourite things
Seem to move on their own, forming silhouettes that weren't there before
But it's only a matter of time
Wave goodbye to your mind
Only a matter of time
Wave goodbye to your mind
Your eyes will only deceive you, peering over the sheets
Fall more victim to panic with every noise that you hear
It's only a matter of time
Wave goodbye to your mind
Only a matter of time
Wave goodbye to your mind
No longer your safest place in the world
The night is young, nerves are fraying one by one

Bring Out Your Dead
02:32
|
|||
A terrifying vision of oncoming pain
Carrion army, advancing your way
Bring out your dead
Silhouette of repulsion, white callous eyes
Leaving their trail of crimson
Following the scythe
Bring out your dead

Mary Lou's In Love Again
01:38
|
|||
Mary Lou’s in love again
Just don’t hold your breath
All previous betrothed to her
Soon after met their deaths
A sly roving eye
The dirtiest lies
Secretive notes
A slit of the throat
Mary Lou’s in love again
He’s asked to take her hand
Those previous betrothed to her
Are scattered on her land
If you’re thinking to stray
Have your wicked way
One mistake from you
Will be the last thing you do
If you dare answer back
A frenzied attack
Before you can blink
Your head’s in the sink
Mary Lou's in love again
