Pallas -- Arrive alive
CROWN OF THORNS
Waking up, I look up to the skies
Searching for reasons, always wondering why
Head into daylight, face towards the dawn
Screaming in anguish, what the hell is going on?
People on the pavement, their lives go by the same
The roles they all are playing, it's just a children's game
Telling lies for friendship, endearing foes for peace
Our story's not a long one, life's just a short-term lease
And I always wonder why
The truth always passes me by
You people on the pavement, your lives go by the same
The roles you all are playing, it's just a children's game
Telling lies for friendship, you're killing foes for peace
Your story's not a long one, your life's just a short-term lease
And I always wonder why
The truth always passes me by
My life has been a pleasant one, there's not much passed me by
But now it's coming to an end, son don't you cry
I'm going to a better end than many gone before
So turn around and don't look back, close my final door
Let go (let go)
I'm leaving now, so turn your face
It's my turn now (it's my turn now)
To leave behind the human race
Let go (let go)
I'm leaving now, so turn your face
It's my turn now (it's my turn now)
To leave behind the human race
Let go
Let go
Let go
Let go
There is a green hill far away, without a city wall
Where each of us are crucified in a crown of thorns
Crown of thorns
In a crown of thorns
In a crown of thorns
In a crown of thorns
Crown of thorns
Crown of thorns
In a crown of thorns
In a crown of thorns
In a crown of thorns
Crown of thorns
Crown of thorns
And I'm always wondering why
The truth always passes me by
THE RIPPER
He's 14 years today. Salute the Birthday Boy,
He always was a little... different
If mum could see you now, your name is on the
Front page of all the papers they're selling on the street.
You killed your first today. It wasn't very hard
You met her at the disco. You took her to the yard.
You killed your first today, she didn't make a sound
The hammer sunk into her skull, she fell onto the ground.
You're telling me lies while you're lying there
You want me to think that I'm crazy
You're just a slut, a degenerate whore
To do the things you ask would degrade me.
Out of the doorway and on to the street
Your brain moves faster than your feet
Now you've realized what you've done
Have you even had such fun?
Now you've experienced the ultimate thrill
You've developed the urge to kill
Ten years on, you've reached No. 10
The feeling remains much teh same as when
The first incision relieved the pain
You said you'd never do what you did to mummy again...
[scream]
