The Real Thing 

 

1. FROM OUT OF NOWHERE

Tossed into my mind, stirring the calm

You splash me with beauty and pull me down

You come from out of nowhere

My glance turns to a stare

Obsession rules me-I'm yours from the start

I know you see me-Our eyes interlock

You come from out of nowhere

My glance turns to a stare

One minute here and one minute there

Don't know if I'll laugh or cry

One minute here and one minute there

And then you wave good-bye...

Sifting to the bottom, every day for two

All energy funnels, all becomes you

You come from out of nowhere

My glance turns to a stare

One minute here and one minute there

Don't know if I'll laugh or cry

One minute here and one minute there

And it hurts inside

One minute here and one minute there

And then you wave good-bye...

2. EPIC

Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?

If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway

You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast

And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass

It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright

It's so groovy, it's outta sight

You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet

But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet

You want it all but you can't have it

It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor

So you lay down on it and you do it some more

You've got to share it, so you dare it

Then you bare it and you tear it

You want it all but you can't have it

It's in your face but you can't grab it

It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin

It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win

It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain

It's sad it happened and it's a shame

You want it all but you can't have it

It's in your face but you can't grab it

What is it?

It's it

What is it?...

3. FALLING TO PIECES

Back and forth, I sway with the wind

Resolution slips away again

Right through my fingers, back into my heart

Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark

Sometimes I think I'm blind

Or I may be just paralyzed

Because the plot thickens every day

And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin' away

But I know, there's a picture beneath

Indecision clouds my vision

No one listens...

Because I'm somewhere in between

My love and my agony

You see, I'm somewhere in between

My life is falling to pieces

Somebody put me together

Layin' face down on the ground

My fingers in my ears to block the sound

My eyes shut tight to avoid the sight

Anticipating the end, losing the will to fight

Droplets of "yes" and "no"

In an ocean of "maybe"

From the bottom, it looks like a steep incline

From the top, another downhill slope of mine

But I know, the equilibrium's there

Indecision clouds my vision

No one listens

Because I'm somewhere in between

My love and my agony

You see, I'm somewhere in between

My life is falling to pieces

Somebody put me together

4. SURPRISE! YOU'RE DEAD!

Surprise! you're dead!

Ha ha! open your eyes

See the world as it used to be when you used to be in it

When you were alive and when you were in love

And when I took it from you!

It's not over yet

You don't remember?

I won't let you forget

The hatred I bestowed

Upon your neck with a fatal blow

From my teeth and my tongue

I've drank and swallowed, but it's just begun

Now you are mine

I'll keep killing you until the end of time

Surprise! you're dead!

Guess what?

It never ends...

The pain, the torment and torture, profanity

Nausea, suffering, perversion, calamity

You can't get away

5. ZOMBIE EATERS

You're everything

That's why I cling to you

When I emerge

My thoughts converge to you

To you

The world is so small

Compared to you

And everybody's wrong

Compared to you

To you

I begin to see through your eyes

All the former mysteries are no surprise

So now, you listen

Cuz I'm omniscient

Hey look at me lady

I'm just a little baby

You're lucky to have me

I'm cute and sweet as candy

As charming as a fable

I'm innocent and disabled

So hug me and kiss me

Then wipe my butt and piss me

I hope you never leave

Cuz who would hear me scream?

Nobody understands

Except the toys in my hands

So now you listen

Cuz I'm omniscient

Hey look at me lady

I'm just a little baby

If I smile, then you smile

Then I'll get mad for awhile

I melt in your mouth

And in your hands whenever I can

But I really do nothing

Except kickin' and fussin'

I like to make a mess

I laugh at your distress

I sit all day in my crib

Absorbing all you give

I'm helpless

I'm flawless

I'm a machine

Give me, I need my toys...

Keep me hot

Keep me strong

Keep me everlong

So now you listen

Cuz I'm omniscient

6. THE REAL THING

I know the feeling

It is the real thing

The essence of the truth

The perfect moment

That golden moment

I know you feel it too

I know the feeling

It is the real thing

You can't refuse the embrace...

It's like the pattern below the skin

You gotta reach out and pull it all in

And you feel like you're too close

So you swallow another dose

The pinnacle of happiness

Filling up your soul

You don't think you can take any more

You never wanna let go

To touch the roots of experience

The most basic ingredients

To see the unseen glitter of life

And feel the dirt, grief, anger and strife

Cherish the certainly of now

It kills you a bit at a time

Cradle the inspiration

It will leave you writhing on the floor...

This is so unreal, what I feel

This nourishment, life is bent

Into a shape I can hold

A twist of fate, all my own

Just grit your teeth, make no sound

Take a step away and look around

Just clench your fist and close your eyes

Look deep inside, hypnotize

The whisper is but a shout

That's what it is all about

Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray

You will never let it slip away

Like the sacred song that someone sings through you

Like the flesh so warm that the thorn sticks into

Like the dream you know one day will come to life

Try to hold on just a little longer, stronger

It's the jewel of victory

The chasm of misery

And once you have bitten the core

You will always know the flavor

The split second of divinity

You drink up the sky

All of heaven is in your arms

You know the reason why

It's right there, all by itself

And what you are, there is nothing else

You're growing a life within a life

The lips of wonder kiss you inside

And when it's over the feeling remains

It all comes down to this

The smoke clears, I see what it is

That made me feel this way...

This is so unreal, what I feel

Flood, sell your soul, feel the blood

Pump through your veins, can't explain

The element that's everything

Just clench your fist and close your eyes

Look deep inside, hypnotize

Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray

You will never let it slip away

Like the echoes of your childhood laughter, ever after

Like the first time love urged you to take it's guidance, in silence

Like your heartbeat when you realize you're dying, but you're trying

Like the way you cry for a happy ending, ending...

I know

7. UNDERWATER LOVE

Looking down into the water

It's hard to make out your face

If our love is drowning, then why

Do I feel so out of place?

Bubbling up to the surface

Are you getting a breath of fresh air?

Forever longing to make you mine

But I can't escape your stare...

Liquid seeps into your lungs

But your eyes look so serene

It's wonderful how the surface ripples

But you're perfect, and I cannot breathe

Forever longing to make you mine

But I can't escape your stare...

Hold me closer, keep me near

My underwater love

Hold me closer, keep me near

I'll never get enough

Touch me from below

I'll never let you go

But I can't escape

8. THE MORNING AFTER

Awakened by the sun light

Victimized by last night

Memories flashin' through my head

Was I just born or am I dead?

Yesterday's forgotten, the morning after

I can taste you, I can hear your laughter

Fading in the distance

Recollections drifting

Bloodstains on my tattered clothes

Each minute the fear grows

If I could just lay down to rest

I'm tired of searching for myself

If I am dead, how can I feel such love?

If I am dead, why am I dreaming?

If I am dead, where do I go from here?

If I am dead, why does this pain feel so good?

Is this my blood dried upon my face?

Or is it the love of someone else?

It tastes so sweet, just like you used to

So rescue me my love, splice us together

I remember loving you so much

But where are you and where's your fatal touch?

When I closed my eyes, was it my siesta?

Did I encounter a darkness stronger than sleep?

I am thirsty for my sleep

There are no answers anyway...

10. WARPIGS

Generals gathered in their masses

Just like witches at black masses

Evil minds that plot destruction

Sorcerers of death's construction

In the fields are bodies burning

As the war machine keeps turning

Death and hatred to mankind

Poisoning their brainwashed minds, Oh Lord yeah

Politicians hide themselves away

They only started the war

Why should they go out to fight

They leave that all to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds

Making war just for fun

Treating people just like pawns in chess

Wait til the judgement day comes

Now in darkness world stops turning

As you hear the bodies burning

No more warpigs have the power

And as God has struck the hour

Day of judgement, God is calling

On their knees the warpigs crawling

Begging mercy for their sins

Satan laughing spreads his wings, Oh Lord yeah

 

11. EDGE OF THE WORLD

Come here, my love

I'll tell you a secret

Come closer, now

I want you to believe it

I'll tell you all the things

You want to hear

Don't worry, baby

There's nothing to fear

Hey, little girl

Would you like some candy?

Look into my eyes

I've seen it all

Hand in hand

Together we fall

We'll sing and dance

And we'll find romance

And we'll stroll to the edge of the world

Come sit right down

Lay your head on my shoulder

It's not the point

That I'm forty years older

You can trust me

I'm no criminal

But I'd kill my mother

To be with you

We'll sing and dance

And we'll find romance

And we'll stroll to the edge of the world

Give me a smile

Let me see those pearlies

I'll do anything

For the little girlies...
