KITTIE LYRICS

1. Kingdom Come

[Instrumental]

2. My Plague

The plague of all ages
Contagious to touch
A blister on my heart
The hunger is endless
The beast is upon us
It's love that ends the world

The smell of blood
The taste of fear
The lust for something more

[Chorus:]
Endless darkness
My plague
Endless darkness
My plague

The fever has broken
The changes are coming
From beast to burden and back
Desire and pain
Ow, the hurt is the same
The beast, she beckons for more

The thrill of the hunt
The wounded burden
The first to fall as prey

[Chorus]

Ow!
I can feel it
Now...I can feel it

Oh, and so it begins
The world is ending
And all it takes is once
The wrath of the scourge
Disease of compassion
Will undo all our kind

A hollow-tipped pill
The only cure
The beast inside the whore

[Chorus]

3. Cut Throat

And what of passion?
And what of shame?
We have suffered both the same
And what of regret?
And what of hate?
The price we pay is all too great

[Bridge:]
Callous are your thoughtless ways
I hope and pray for better days

[Chorus:]
Disguised behind the lies
Do you not realize?
This is heartless, this is heartless
Disguised behind the lies
Do you not realize?
This is heartless, this is heartless
THIS IS CUT THROAT!

And what of forgiveness?
And what of blame?
Does your venom spew my name?
And what of resentment?
So what if I'm damned?
Vicious actions deserve reprimand

[Bridge]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[Chorus]

4. Die My Darling

Now the party's over
The last stone is cast
Your days of destruction
Will surely be your last
Just swallow this pill
YOU'LL SUFFER UNTO ME NOW!
One foot into the grave

[Chorus:]
Die! Die! My darling
I wanna see you fall tonight
Die! Die! My darling
I wanna see you fall...

Now it's curtains for you
You've done wrong
You're so vain, I think you'd take
Credit for this song
The blue pill, the red one?
YOU'LL CUT YOURSELF DOWN ONE DAY!
One foot into the grave

[Chorus]

COME CLOSER! STILL CLOSER!
I WANT TO SEE YOUR EYES DIM!
COME CLOSER! STILL CLOSER!
I WANT TO SEE YOUR EYES DIM!

Die! Die! My darling
I wanna see you fall tonight
Die! Die! My darling
I wanna see you fall tonight
Die! Die! My darling
I wanna see you fall tonight
Die! Die! My darling
I wanna see you fall
I want to see you fall
Fall, fall, fall...

5. Sorrow I Know

This feeling is endless
Hollow voids cannot be filled
This unrest relentless
To want and never, ever have

I know
Sorrow I know

This longing is ageless
Underneath the blackened sky
I still remain nameless
The night's ablaze and so am I

I know
Sorrow I know

Beckoning, spiraling
Do your bidding
Angels sing

[Instrumental Break]

Oh, I know
Sorrow I know

6. Forgive And Forget

The bitter feelings
The twisted lies
Accusations swarm like flies
Unsheathe the knife, the choice gives rise
Betrayal's where my heart collides

It's time to rise
Against the lies

The selfish learnings
Clever disguise
Can't see past your own demise
It's yourself that you despise
There's no one left to hear your cries

[Chorus:]
You mean nothing to me
Never have and never will
I forgive and forget you
It's time... FOR YOU TO DO THE SAME!

Delusions plague you
Green to the core
It's a desperate grab for more
You bit the hand that fed, what for?
A sad attempt to settle a score?

It's time to rise
Against the lies

A selfish witch hunt
Turned on its side
How does it feel to burn alive?
Secure the post, the flames arise
Ignited thatch reflects in my eyes
Oww!

[Chorus]

OWW!

[Brief Instrumental Break]

(Hey, hey!) IT'S TIME
(Hey, hey!) TO RISE
(Hey, hey!) AGAINST THE LIES! OW!

[Chorus]

NOW!

7. Now Or Never

I want to hate this
I cannot lie
Candy suicide
I think that I might die

ENDLESS TORTURE PLAYED OUT
TIME AND TIME AGAIN
WIPE THE BLOOD AND TEARS
I MUST LET THIS IN

[Chorus:]
This is the sweetest kiss of death
It's now or never, do or die
This is the sweetest kiss of death
It's now or never, do or die

The sweetest ending
Without a name
Every corner's dark
And everyday's the same

CRUCIFY THE WICKED
TIME DISTORTED PAST
THIS TIME IT'S SHOOT TO KILL
Let this be the last...

[Chorus]

The sweetest kiss of death...
It's do or die...
Do or die...

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

8. Falling Down

In between life and death
I need a place where I can rest
Not black nor white
I've tried my best

Always grey is where I hide
I never want to choose a side
Not dark nor light
Always unsatisfied

I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again

In the midst of pain and pride
In solemn center I confide
The rising tide
Swallows the light
(SWALLOWS THE LIGHT!)

I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again

[Brief Instrumental Break]

I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again
And...
I've fallen down again
I've fallen down again

I've fallen down again...
I've fallen down again...

9. Sleepwalking

Watching me fall
Into the flames
Of a broken soul tonight
No stone overturned
This graveyard of mine
Allows me no peace

[Chorus:]
Sleep as day dies
Sleepwalk with the dead
Wander aimlessly through the night

Love and regret
Course through my veins
As I slowly fade away
Please let me sleep
Just one last night
Before I must wake

[Chorus]

And I walk with these ghosts
And I walk with these ghosts
And I walk with these ghosts...

[Chorus]

Sleep as night falls
Sleepwalk with the dead
Hope keeps me alive
Through this life

10. Whiskey Love Song

Curse your name
A thousand times
Love and hate
Worlds collide

Doors swing open
Fate decided
Take that first taste
In your arms it kills me slowly

[Chorus:]
And I love
You for all
All these nights
I can't remember
And I hate
You for all
All these nights
I WANT TO FORGET!

Amber love
Say my name
Whisper disappointment
Bring me heartache

Doors swing open
Fate decided
Take that first taste
In your arms it kills me slowly

[Chorus]

I DON'T KNOW WHY I LIKE THE FEELING
YOU ALWAYS SEEM TO LET ME DOWN
AND I'M NOT ONE FOR DISAPPOINTMENT
BUT I WILL DRINK YOU TILL I DROWN

[Chorus]

11. Ready Aim Riot

The path through life
Unseen and unheard
Of babies' breath or less
Blind to the truth
Like sheep led to slaughter
A rose will bring an end to this

Let them fall behind, let them see
Vanishing the light

Destroy the weak
Learn to think before you speak
Oww!

Ready, aim... riot!
Ready, aim... riot!

Enslaved like beasts
By unseen hands
Your kind will cease to thrive
To burn like brush
The flames arise
Until nothing's left alive

Let them fall behind, let them see
Vanishing the light

Destroy the weak
Learn to think before you speak

Ready, aim... riot!
Ready, aim... riot!

Destroy the weak
Learn to think before you speak
Let's raise the bar
Rid us of the ones who are...

[Brief Instrumental Break]

Destroy the weak!
Learn to think before you speak!
Let's raise the bar!
Rid us of the ones who are...!

Ready, aim... riot!
Ready, aim... riot!

Ready, aim... riot!
Ready, aim... riot!

12. The Truth

Hopelessly in love with death
The beast, she breathes her lonely breath
To cast away the last of love until there's only heartache
From love to lust
From death to dust
The things we feel, we cannot trust
The emptiness consumes my blood until this love's a burden

I know, I know the truth that hides inside
I know, I know the truth becomes a lie

I know, I know what it's like to burn alive
Full is never as burdened as emptiness
Rotting conscience left behind
And they will bow down before me
Pledge allegiance on one knee
And there is nothing else,
Only hatred
Fuck the world
It's just you and me

I know, I know the truth that hides inside
I know, I know the truth becomes a lie

Is it the truth or is it a fucking lie?

Fucking lie
No, no, no

Lie, no

13. The Only

[Bonus Track]

I can see that I’m not there
I can feel it in the air

I can see that I’m not there
I can feel it in the air
I’m still reeling from it all
Pain and despair
Foggy mornings take their share

And I say
You’re the only one who looks right through to see the truth
Take it back
Don’t look back
And I do what will

There are things that I cannot say
Ugly truths get in the way
I’m still reeling from it all
Don’t ever say
I can make it go away

And I still say
You’re the only one who looks right through to see the truth
Take it back
Don’t look back
And I do what will

You’re the only one who looks right through to see the truth
Take it back
Don’t look back
And I do what will

Dead inside
Why do I deserve this?
Dead inside
I must bring this to light
I have tried
I can’t take it all back
Full of lies

God dammit you’re the only one

Dead inside
Why do I deserve this?
Dead inside
I must bring this to light

I can see that I’m not there
I feel it in the air
