DEFTONES LYRICS

1. Prayers / Triangles

There's a new strange godless demon awake inside me
There's a force divine terrorizing the angels I keep
While we dream
Prayers laid on the line, you will never be free

I'm a true slave to the fire and the air around you
While this cursed divine is slowly rotting away inside me
While we dream

Prayers laid on the line, you will never be free
Triangles placed in your mind--you will never be free

I'd beware

I will walk this street again
The only time I feel I'm not alone
I pull my heart out wave it in the air

Prayers laid on the line, you will never be free
Triangles placed in your mind--you will never be free
Prayers/triangles
You will never be free

I will walk this street again
The only time I feel I'm not alone
I pull my heart out wave it in the air
I pull my heart out beware

2. Acid Hologram

In the haze of your light we bathe and wane
You've surrounded our hearts again

You smother me in shapes in a secret praxis

You've showed me your charms and revealed your name
Blow the clouds from your mouth again

And smother me in shapes you'll reveal your secret side
Your light will fade and our hearts will sync in time
Your disguise will shift and reverse

In the wake of your plume we bathe and drink
You remind me of her again

Smother me in shapes you'll reveal your secret side
Your light will fade and out hearts will sync in time
Your disguise will shift and reverse

In time your light will fade and our hearts will sync in time
Your disguise will shift and reverse

3. Doomed User

There went your time, say goodbye now leave here
My fuse has expired fuckin' die just leave here

Powerless stuck in your web of shit
Open your eyes you only play yourself
Whoever's watching I hope they catch the drift
Collect your crown you're now the queen of filth

There went your life go and die I mean it
Loose and defiled you define the meaning

They're delusions don't deny it
Don't make this out to be something about you

I've been scared fuckin' repulsed by this
My only tale is one that I can't stand
Now I've become this core of rotted will
My heart is black and I will never feel

There say goodbye just retire from the earth
You've been exiled take you body elsewhere
They're delusions don't deny it
Don't make this out to be something about you
Go waste your breath somewhere to someone new

Your castle has burned down on you
Your kingdom in burning down

They're delusions don't deny it
Don't make this out to be something about you

They're delusions don't deny it
Don't make this out to be something about you
Go waste your breath somewhere to someone new

4. Geometric Headdress

Hey princess lay back in your chair
Show us your geometry see if I stare

Pink cigarette, white see-through dress
And a black-gold veil
Ornate headdress, my temptress
Wield your staff and your grail
Vows, secrets, wake me when
It's my turn to walk through

Caught deep in your every curve
Primed and ready for battle
Lift your veil now formulate
With the sound by yourself

As her words draw you in
Our faith reconnects

And our hearts they collapse
At the words
Now come to me in your glitz and your glam
Place your heart down step back
And watch this

Blank featured vile creatures
Collapse at your ankles
Fire breather, snake eater
Relax as we hail her
Vows, secrets, guide me when
It's my turn to walk through

Don't turn around, look back to see it
Just hang on and formulate
And believe it by yourself

As her words draw you in
Our faith reconnects
And our hearts they collapse
From the words we intake
And now relate like I relate
'Till your faith reconnects
Now relate like I relate
To the words

We are enlightened
We stare and behold
We commit to your being
We belong we belong
Deep in your circle
Trapped in your grace
Wrapped in your prism walls
We will stay

5. Hearts / Wires

Nothing can save me now
Is what I believe
The slit in the sky when you left
Is all see

Nothing to sing about
I've bared all my leaves
No vision or dreams about you
Came true for me

Cut through
This razor wire
And dine on your heart
Mine 'till the end

Stuck with illusion now
I drown in your sea
I hope that you'll first save yourself
And then come fore me

Cut through
This razor wire
And dine on your heart
Mine 'till the end
Break through
Clip the wires
And writhe in your heart
Mine 'till the end

A way a way out
Down deep into your veins all the way all the way
Down deep in your heart all the way all the way

Cut through
The razor wire
Mine 'till the end
Break through
Clip the wires
And dine on your heart
Mine 'till the end

6. Pittura Infamante

I kneel at the alter
Carve your name
And hail to the gods
I've climbed your trees and I peeled your fruit
When I tasted your kiss

How amazing that you were sent
Like you were molded out of thin air
And I don't want you to disappear
But I want you to carry us out here

We sail through arc light
Attach the wings
And wait for the gods
We found your grail we drank your juice
And we tasted your gift

I will wait here a thousand years
I will choose to immerse in yours eyes
I've seen the truth and I know your strength
I have watched your great ascent

Now we sing
Now we sing your praises
And now we face the sky

On top of the crux
I've climbed every rung
To bathe in your sunlight

I kneel at the altar
I promised you I would stay to the end
I will hold and praise and feel your truth

Now let us drink to the gods

I will sing
I will sing your praises
I will scream
I will scream your praises

7. Xenon

You're floating out astray
This cold and lifeless body
At this moment what you taste
Is the key to your evolving

We're the lions at the gates
We're the diamond in your brain
The desire in your veins
For the violence
And the writers of your fate

Keep riding on this wave
The desire sweeps your body
Oh we're watching now we wait
For another sweet departing

We're the lions at the gates
We're the diamond in your brain
The desire in your veins
For the violence
And the writers of your fate
We're the sirens to your raid
The desire to remain
In the violence
The deciders
Of your fate

The desire in your veins for the violence
The diamond in your brain
The desire partake in the violence
We're the sirens to your raid
The desire to remain
Remain
Remain
The writers of your fate

8. (L)MIRL

I don't miss you
I don't care where you are now
You're a ghost to me
Left with my taste in your mouth

Taken away somewhere new

I'm used to it
This body here but I'm gone

When I re-awake
I'll re-awake in the waves

In a new realm
Catch this dream on film
You might just get used to it and you'll smile, and dive deep

I sail on these waves
Slip into the calming waves

You're an old hex
That just drained my will
So I put this gun to my head and I smile, and dive deep

I sail on these waves
Slip into the calming waves
Deep into the calming waves

We have created
Now we're gone

And now a reawakening
Another form of myself
I come right out of my skin

Slip into the calming waves
Deep into the calming waves
Slip into the calming waves
Deep into

Right now
Bear witness
This rebirth
Right now

9. Gore

Deep in this dream we are locked in
I've pulled you in
Now our bodies are wet
There is blood on the beaches
I brought you into this don't deny yourself

Smile now you're all set
Surprise you're now one of the gang
Take what you want to take
Surprise you're now running the game

We lay in the gore of our vices
Oh we writhe in them
At night we assemble the hunt for our prizes
I hooked you in this way
You should try yourself

Smile now you're all set
Surprise you're now one of the gang
Take what you want to take
Surprise you're now running the game
We'll slip right through these gates together someday

Lost in these dreams we arrive in
I know you well
Develop the taste that will tie us together
I put you in this game
Just remind yourself

Smile now you're all set
Surprise you're now one of the gang
Take what you want to take
Surprise you're now running the game
Smile now you're all set
Surprise you're now one of the gang
Take what you want to take
Surprise you're now running wild

We'll slip right through these gates together someday
We'll slip right through these gates together forever

Smile now you're all set
Surprise you're now one of the gang
Take what you want to take
Surprise you're now running the game
Smile now you're all set
Surprise you're now one of the gang
Take what you want to take

Surprise you're home

10. Phantom Bride

[feat. Jerry Cantrell]

Inside of this hole you create
You hide from yourself
You separate every belief that is true
And you spent your life
Attached to this poison
You don't feel anything out of the rain
And it's true that

You spend your life
Trapped in this void
Where you will stay always

Can't rid of this thought you rotting in
This same cold space
You don't want to feel anything new you've decided
To spend your life safe from emotion
This way you'll never be harmed again or confused now

You spend your life
Trapped in this void
Where you will stay always
You waste your life
Relaxed in your void
Where you will drain all of you

You spend your life
Trapped in your void
Where you will stay always
You waste your life
Relaxed in your void
Where you will stay always
You spend your life
Trapped in your void
Where you will stay always

Waste your life...always
Attached to this poison...always
You will drain all of you

11. Rubicon

You cannot face the crowd all by yourself embrace the power we have

Raise your eyes slowly

Place your faith into me

Your body it aches to be draped in our delight slowly

Take me in
Face the lights
Free yourself and writhe in them

Sound asleep hunting
Wide awake moaning
This body aches to be
Draped in you tonight
Slowly

Take me in
Face the lights
Free yourself and writhe in them
Take me in
Face the crowd
Let yourself just writhe in them

You cannot face the crowd all by yourself embrace the power we have
The record's ours to break the more we build the crowd goes wild

Take me in
Face the lights
Free yourself and writhe in them
Take me in
Face the crowd
Let yourself just writhe in them

You cannot face the crowd all by yourself embrace the power we have
The record's ours to break and the more we build the crowd goes wild
