Fiend 03:43
Can't believe that you let me in your dream Well C'mon, Yeah you know I'm just a fiend No I'm never gonna let you see whats underneath 'Cus I know Yeah I know I'm just a fiend (x3) hall pass so the world don't think I'm soft Just act tough, 'cos you know it gets them off Can't escape from the sorcery of G-d Don't burn out, Even when you face the frost. It won't last, soon you'll break free from the jaws Just act tough, be the rock behind the moss

So how does it feel, to be coming upon the deal and if you think that it isn't real well then you're wrong And what would you say, If I was dreaming of brighter days and if you think that it's not okay, well then you'll find I wanna keep you in the corner of my eye 'cause I've seen you're dirty pictures and I've listened to your lies No I can't stand the way you roll the dice So tell me how you know to lie? I've never seen that in my life (that's right) Bluebird sleeping arround, yes 'cause she, can't seem to find her nest bluebird sleeping around, but it's for the best And the door flies open the wind has come and she say "Hey! you can't be the only one. Time to drop the ball and come with me, son!" (alright) (chorus) I wanna keep you there (Keeping it right) (x8)

Shelter 03:04
Try to find my way to cover see this time you wasted, brother I find the worst things that I do are all pretend And if they think you're crazy, well just do yourself a favor pay no mind I blow the heads off in a room behind my eyes I find the worst things that I do are all pretend (x2) Guide these poor defenseless souls that don't know which way to go I can see your instincts kicking it, your lip is quivering in the cold Swear to G-d there's fucking creatures living in my head No I don't care about scientists or atheists there's creatures in my head Try to find my way to cover see this time you wasted, brother I find the worst things that I do are all pretend And if they think you're crazy, well just do yourself a favor pay no mind I blow the heads off in a room behind my eyes I find the worst things that I do are all pretend (x4)

In The Night 03:20
Little darling won't you sit a spell Gimme heaven and I'll give you hell but you don't need it so I'll just keep it for myself No tacky makeup and no high heels but the boys heads are turning like a wagon wheel and you don't notice until you hear it in this song, oh no 'cause when you notice you'll probably think of what can go wrong Chicky chicky on the air guitar steal my body, but please spare my heart 'cause I think I need it There'd be a hole if it were gone I think I need it but then again, maybe I'm wrong (maybe I'm wrong) bring it down I thought that it was me or you me or you but tonight, I won't be there in your mind (ooh I thought I saw you in the night) but tonight, I won't be there by your side (ooh I thought I saw you in the night)

Used To You 01:44
ooh I've gotten used to you but now we're feeling blue like we used to you and now I roam the streets at night at least I'm feeling right ain't no stars in sight The phantom of your cry starts to materialize reminiscent of the night we danced before the light I'm sick of playing the fool and tired of acting so cool You've seen beneath my peel I wonder how I'll heal If your even real But you're not you and I'm not me so I guess this is how Its supposed to be

Red Water 04:04
Im sick of talking to the figures in the dark don't you know? sick of bickering, it's turned into an art hold the phone still got time to fuck around until it starts bless your your soul The dancing skeleton you've seen it on the news telling you "you still got money that you really want to lose" ain't it true bet you got plenty plenty plenty more, bless your soul. It's getting deeper, ooh its getting deeper c'mon (x4) (red water) x3 Look at you looking at all of these beautiful girls each moment that passes you count all your woes in this world look at you looking at all of these beautiful (red water) It comes at 4 in the morning daily pretend the potion is lovely, yeah (red water) And if you never believe it, darling you're getting more than you asked for (red water)x4

Wish I could see the world again Wish I could be more than a cardboard cutout friend It makes no difference in the end So I wish I could smite the world and spare the innocent I wanna raise the innocent, oh yeah There's little people in the walls and they're listening to it all and they can tell when you're afraid so you better watch just what you say you're gonna take it too the grave, oh yeah I wanna see what is true fresh young eyes, I can look at you Cus if the world gets sticky gone in a jiffy To a new star, where there never gonna get me ooh it's getting deeper come on yes I will make your dreams come true (yes you) and if you're feeling me now you're soon to face the fall and if you figure me out feel free to say nothing at all and I know we will return, or we'll burn

The Return 01:38
Can't believe that you let me in your dream Well C'mon, Yeah you know I'm just a fiend No I'm never gonna let you see whats underneath 'Cus I know Yeah I know I'm just a fiend (x3) And if I told you what it means well then you'd burst right at the seams You wanna hold what you believe Yeah we're still bathing with the sharks Propagating in the dark see your troubles from afar and who you are
