MACHINA ACOUSTIC DEMOS |
and if there is a god
i know he likes to rock
he likes his loud guitars
and his spiders from mars
if there is a god
i know she's watching me
she says she likes what he sees
but there's trouble on the breeze
who are you this time?
are you one of us, flying blind?
'cause i'm down here throwing stones
while you're so far from home
and if there is a god
you know they're on tv
they're the spies with bedroom eyes
that cower in our skies
who are you this time?
are you one of us, flying blind?
'cause we're down here throwing stones
while you're so far from home
and if there is a god
if there is a god
long run my silent horses
soft cry the shell shocked houses
wring dry the salty tears
of sailors and their lover
bring forth the silent movies
kiss all the twilight crimes
bleach blonde the high wire groupies
sucking up their time
rain rust the creaking masses
wind blows the temples down
blood fills the exit tunnels
streaking out of town
it's about time
it's about fear
blue skies bring tears
lungs clack the vapors anxious
tears drain the fleeing sources
sit through their sunday speeches
delivered in thin air
unleash the armageddon
draw down the hungry prayer
kneel for the final verdict
judges draw you near
let fly model armies
let fly the locust cry
uncork the hidden forces
amassing to a lie
it's about time
it's about being here
blue skies bring tears
don't you want me
i'll be there for you again
emilia
you're the angel becoming
you are the angel ascending
cruel the dogs of winter
barking in your ear
shake loose the huddled masses
spit on the urgent armies
cracked tooth, the fading roses
frozen since your burn
fire all the dead tree soldiers
shoot down the skeletal bells
i know means to crisis
that doesn't go through hell
it's about time
it's about you
blue skies bring tears
there you are
as you always were
in bathing light
and naked blur
you're a part of me
eternal wone
my grand design
and setting sun
if you wait, i will wait
taste, i will taste
if you love, i will love
run, i will run
to my last breath
last night i turned around and thought i saw myself turning
inside the strangest dream of life unloved and cities burning
awake in my arms
you cry unharmed
our age of the hours
when they still devour all
so take it all
i doubt if we
will know it's gone
cause we've been here
since time began
begged god awake
and make these plans
wound opens
reveal this broken man
and soon there's notions
of blood on his hands
if you wait, i will wait
taste, i will taste
if you love, i will love
run, i will run
to my last breath
last night i turned around, i thought i saw myself turning
last night i turned around and thought i watched the world ending
inside the crushing i felt a pang, the tide was turning
destroyed in the wake
the jealous ingrates
will tear this world down
to spite god above
with his own love
with his own love
if you wait
if you wait
if you wait, i will wait
taste, i will taste
if you love, i will love
run, i will run
to my last breath
LE DEUX EX MACHINA
(Strumentale)
you can hear the baby bones
crack beneath her wheels
tears of avalon
streak silent down her shield
high crimes and misdemeanors
unfortunate attacks
will leave you standing nameless
while she's turning black
vanity stands naked at my door
vanity cries, why?
eleanor, you've lost me
in a haze of wine and cocaine
gone out and cost me
everything i blame
broadcast in tv detail
to call their own stories
as i try to recapture
our best in former glories
vanity stands naked at my door
vanity cries, why?
vanity wants everything and more
vanity must die
she swears she'll turn around
turn around for good
she swears she'll turn around
turn around for sure
you know you'll run around
run around for her
you know you want to know so pure
ease on that dirt road
you've still a ways to go
soak in sights and city lights
while you still can borrow
cursed fall will find you
and bring a memory
the ghost of her surrender
with the kiss of anarchy
she's naked at my door
vanity cries, why?
vanity wants everything and more
vanity must die
die
to the center of the earth
anywhere god decides
full of fever pulling forth
we hear our call as all
to the center of the earth
as if written in
dna is reaching out
to your frequency
i want to live
don't want to die
i want to live
i want to try
all in prayer
prayer in all
all are scared
scared of you
black rooms are calling
men in leather coats
white labs are cooking
up the silver ghost
glass migrates under
her translucent skin
and the spiders wonder
just what we've got us in
all is you
you are all
all with you
you in all
i want to live
don't want to die
i want to give
i want to try
i want to try
so beats the final coda
of our vinyl storm
one more cherry cola
to lift up her dead arms
a dream of soft focus sunsets
filters through the din
bones bleed triumpant contact
as she dials it in
she can hear glass calling
or someone who looks just like him
we are losing contact
she says it doesn't matter
she'd never liked her looks
she eyes tv reflection
and nods a knowing look
i have seen myself a thousand fractures
i have seen everything
knowing is its own answer
love something in a book
not much left to ponder
not much left to kill
may i walk beside your shadow, softly
bless the ground you walk upon so easy
innocence, come to me
squandered in anarchy
can i drain your body of its fever
turn my cheek while you are weak and starving
we all know who you are
what you've become, you're a star
sweet dreams you don't want to change
by means at your own hands
remote and isolated
predoubt all that you see
innocence, come to me and be your belief and see
may i walk beside your shadow, softly
bless the ground you walk upon so easy
if they didn't know you then
what makes you think they know you now
vengeance is swift and sweet and sure
insecure
do you laugh
could you laugh about it
i know that
i could live without it all
you will grow to love me
even if it kills me
do you laugh
and i will speak of solace
and invest in promise
promise not to get too deep
promised i'd never grow weak
but a soldier never comes home
battle rages on and on
do you laugh
could you laugh about it
i know that
i will live without it all
i will live without it all
i often see that empty road
destination still unknown
disappearing 'round the bend
'cause the end is never the end
do you laugh
could you laugh about it
i know that
i could live without it all
i could live without it all
do you laugh
do you laugh
do you laugh
they say that freedom is something you make
independence, some sort of change
happiness, a smile, and a fleeting look
who appears inside the soul i strew so with love?
here i am okay, okay
there i go alone, easy
here i am to stay, thank you
there i go alone
a cat purrs to prove that she's still a cat
a dog barks at you to prove he's all that
and you'll destroy everything clear in your path
to scream that you're human and want something back
here i am okay, okay
there i go alone, easy
here i am to stay, thank you
there i go alone
a child you were born, a child you'll return
counting your miles, scarred by what you've earned
penetrate the silence with a silence all your own
only you can know what's still left to burn
here i am okay, okay
there i go alone, easy
here i am to stay, thank you
when i was afraid
there i was okay, okay
there i go alone, easy
here i am to stay, thank you
when i was afraid
if i speak my peace, could you hear me?
if i reached to you, would you feel me?
if i kissed you, would you love me?
it's one less moment to break your heart
one less love to tear apart
don't want to be your lover
don't want to be your friend
but the spell we've surrendered
so just let me pretend
you don't exist
connection is fixed
one more arrow to pierce your soul
one more chance to let go
in the mountain song, sing the echoes
in the long meadows, chase the shadows
in the starless night you whisper endless praise
swear to god that you won't change
don't want to be your lover
don't want to be your friend
faith takes me over
so just let me pretend
you're not real
visions surreal
spirit of channels
and if i fall in love, will you forgive me?
if i lose my way, will you choose me?
if i change my mind, will you change me?
if i'm here to stay, will you leave me?
last chance to make believe in always and all it seems
train wrecks hide underneath your umbrella
set the frame destiny on this first name soliloquy
tired symphonies play downward
let me give the world to you my love
let me give the world to you my love
let me show you what i'm thinking of
let me give the world to you my love
so far
so far
so far
lovers form dead excuse
and blur the line with soul abuse
my lonesome lines just have no use around here
new skin may hold you in
but the old skin still turns us on
flicker fades the nitrate dawn to wear
let me give the world to you my love
let me show you what i'm thinking of
times are hard and we're the last in line
cause in my grief i'd forgotten what was mine
no i wouldn't change a thing
no i, no
no i wouldn't change a thing about the way you are
the distance here, the speed so far
so far
so far
so far
let me give the world to you my love
let me give the world to you my love
let me give the world to you
let me give the world to you
let me give the world to you
let me give the world to you
let me give the world to you my love
so far
so far
so far
in the eyes beholding
aspects of arcane pleasure
shaking in our magnet measures
to repair, learn to try
i am your bone shattered
i am your breath seeking
i am your senses creaking
the chandeliers of light
it's about time
it's about fear
blue skies bring tears
flat pools of warm surrender
cruel summer of ancient truth
the search was never-ending
until i lay my claim on you
think not of virgin terrors
think not of your family
rub out the burdened concepts
are you ready to believe
in me this time
it's about fear
blue skies bring tears
ease to the blackened hallway
ascend to the highest height
call to the half-life lovers
drowning in their wells of time
ease down the darkened stairway
to a place that isn't fair
unease the sure-fire captain
drinking you to hell
peed kills, but beauty lives forever
speed thrills, but beauty knows your name
fall ill inside eternal winter
stand still beside eternal flame
'cause when i ride
with you tonight
we can move
at the speed of light
and all i ask
and all i pray
last rose of summer is gone
last rose of summer is gone
first time that i ever saw you
crashing hard thru days of pain
you were one of god's children
left to cry out in the rain
waiting to be born again
'cause when i ride
with you tonight
we can move
at the speed of light
and all i ask
and all i pray
last rose of summer
last rose of summer
last rose of summer is gone
gone, gone
last rose of summer is gone
when i ride
with you tonight
we can move
at the speed of light
forever young
forever blind
into the stars
we rock tonight
last rose of summer is gone
the last rose of summer is gone
the last rose of summer is gone
the last rose of summer is gone
the last rose of summer
the last rose of summer
the last rose of summer is gone
