Square house and double glazes, grey skies Square house and double glazes, still lives. No dreams or happy endings, we lie till we die No dreams or happy endings, still lives.

Slice and dice my dear. It's twice as nice with fear. You like being cut And he is so near. He likes drinking Who cares what they're thinking? You like giving And now you're sinking. Everyone's a loser In the game of blood Take all you can Oh it tastes so good. Cutting and drinking Bleeding and sinking Time for a game of blood A cut can feel so good. Cutting and drinking Bleeding and sinking Time for a game of blood A cut can feel so good. Try to imagine it, Pain, forever Pain, forever You (Pain forever). You Like giving. You (Pain) Like giving (Forever). You Like giving Blood. Forever.

Deadlock 04:39
Seconds down, no turning back Target lock, we are intact Just close your eyes, and brain contact Stifle cries, this is impact. Brace for impact. Eternal war, the western pact Hunt for truth, the only fact Locked down, no way back Penetrate, and take the flag. You're the target locked on you Beating hard, I'm pulling through Deadlock absolute Push the trigger from me to you.

There’s nothing we can’t do Nothing we can’t take So we’ll eat you Steal what we can’t make. Pollute what is pure Rape all we find Taking from the poor Stealing from the blind.

Those who follow, live on their knees, Those who lead will surely fall. So put your should to the wheel And feel your back against the wall. So feel the rain and walk this city Human waste, feel its pity I dreamt of blue in darkened skies I gnored the truth and closed my eyes. They said they'd help you and they lied Spies in the wires, their disguise Red saliva down my spine I smiled so hard I lost my mind. This is the end. Message sent. The news is leaking from the tv set No celebration, salvation Self inflicted isolation. The life I made was to unwind A melting wave drives me blind Someone else has drawn the line All I need is another time. I chose honour and dreamt of blue Just one duty till I'm through Cry havoc and make me move Shed blood, the time is due. This is the end. Message sent. The news is leaking from the tv set No celebration, salvation Self inflicted isolation.

Taking time to carve a line Pushing down into your world Trying hard to make it mine Close your eyes my little girl Extracting souls through your spine My intrusion, penetrating Sucking out all I can find Nothing left, desecrating Gut wrench, evil stench. Tie her down, on to the bench. I can make you bleed and shout I can stop you reaching out I can stop you reaching out Tying down your shaking hand I can make you bleed and shout How much pain can you withstand? I'm not clean, so obscene. Untouched and feeling mean Drowning fast 'n dropping out. Plucking wings from pretty things Gut wrench, evil stench. Tie her down, on to the bench. I can make you bleed and shout I can stop you reaching out.

She’s my little dolly, she does as I ask Waiting for my word, whilst the hours pass I make my Dolly move, I nudge her into line Pushing her along, she gives me all her time I command and order, to my beck and call I decide just how high and then I let her fall But my Dolly wants something I can’t give her She wants life, she wants to feel Suffer and bleed, laugh and cry If I give her life she’ll have to die. Suffer and bleed, laugh and cry If I give her life she’ll have to die. So I muv my Dolly, give her my commands Gently force her existence, she’s Putty in my hands Emotions that she can’t feel and never understand Gently force her existence, she’s Putty in my hands Suffer and bleed, laugh and cry If I give her life she’ll have to die. Suffer and bleed, laugh and cry If I give her life she’ll have to die.

She was just sixteen, somewhere he’d never been. Passion hides in strange places, sometimes where it's not so clean. He was on his knees, she was there to please. He can't stop it now, they have to satisfy their needs. He feels all she needs , she knows how he feeds Caution to the wind, who will be the one who bleeds? His world feels remorse, their fate takes its course Destined to fall apart, when all around are whores. You know that life can be unkind Your needs can be oh so blind She hides behind her purity She has to face reality Life can be so unkind Your needs can be oh so blind There's only one thing you can do So take her now before they do. He's lost his charm and grace, he takes all he can take He must make a choice: a rock or a hard place? She's blind to all his fears, he hurts to see her tears And so succumbs to lust, his sighs are all she hears. You know that life can be unkind Your needs can be oh so blind She hides behind her purity She has to face reality Life can be so unkind Your needs can be oh so blind There's only one thing you can do So take her now before they do.
