LIZZY BORDEN LYRICS

1. Master Of Disguise

In this mask engraved I'm under, a masquerade of thunder
Callling out, you wonder who I am
I can hear you screaming to the bells I'm ringing
Pardon me, you're dreaming, I'm your nightmare's end

I'm a lost child facing a confrontation
I'm just a figment of your imagination
I'm a snake in the grass offering temptation

I'm the master of disguise
I can see you watching from the corner of my eyes
I'm the master of disguise
I'm dressed to kill, tonight

In a blaze of glory, I'm another story told
In a schizophrenic scene
I'm a mad creation, dressed in black, mutation
I'm every mother's dream

I'm a lost child facing a confrontation
I'm just a figment of your imagination
I'm a snake in the grass offering temptation

I'm the living image, cast a shadow blackened passed
The mirror of our lies
In this theatre of cruelty obscurely under wraps
The curtain will arise

I'm the master of disguise
I can see you watching from the corner of my eyes
I'm the master of disguise
I'm dressed to kill, tonight

I'm the master of disguise
I'm the wolf in a pack of lies
I'm the master of disguise

2. One False Move

My eyes see inside myself
Look away look away look away
The sky is black and so is my heart
I'm afraid I am pain I am death

I'll be your fool
I am your slave
But one false move and you're blown away

Action speaks I will die for you
In the end I pretend I was cruel
You're all inside me don't try and hide me
Cause I am you and you are begging me to stay

I'll be your bad guy
I will portray
But one false move and you're blown away

3. Love Is A Crime

I call she says
I know you're there
I can hear you breathing
It's you again
I know it's wrong
My time is gone
I can feel your touch
Right through the phone

I got your number from the TV screen
Said if you're lonely just give me a call
Cause I'm only a hotline away
We got the girls so hot and sweet
The cherry filled here your talk is cheap
We'll bring your lonely nights to life

I feel your fingers touching me
Through my line
You seem to say all the right things
In time

Love is a crime
It's stealing my soul and my mind
Love is a crime
You get what you get love is blind

Love is a crime
It's stealing my soul and my mind
Love is a love is a love is a crime
You get what you get love is blind

They say I can't love girls like you
But what do they know
Leave that trash alone
I know you're more than just a voice on the phone

Your words they leave nothing to hide
On my line
I need to hear your voice inside
My line

Love is a crime
It's stealing control of my mind
Love is a love is a love is a crime
You want and you watch you can't find
Love is a crime
Love gives on the take from behind
Love is a love is a love is a crime
Behind the line she's all mine

Love is a love is a love is a love is a crime
Love is a crime
Love is a crime
Love is a crime

4. Sins Of The Flesh

Lies in the pouring rain
I taste who you are
A stranger with life to bleed
I'm bleeding you dry

Cry out the unspoken
The devil's in disguise
Life flows into my veins
From angels in your eyes

Sins of the flesh
Lust in my breath
No one must ever know
I own your soul

Tears in the sunlit sky
I know what you dream
There's one hope for you and I
I am what I seem

Cry out the unspoken
The devil's in disguise
Life flows into my veins
From angels in your eyes

Sins of the flesh
Lust in my breath
No one must ever know
I own your soul
Sins of the flesh
Innocence blessed
Trust me you're not alone
Anymore

Cry out the unspoken
The devil's in your eyes
Life flows into my veins
From angels in disguise

Sins of the flesh
Lust in my breath
No one must ever know
I own your soul
Sins of the flesh
Innocence blessed
Trust me you're not alone
Anymore

Sins of the flesh (Sins of the flesh)
Lust in my breath (Lust in my breath)
No one must ever know (No one must ever know)
I own your soul
Sins of the flesh (Sins of the flesh)
Innocence blessed (Innocence blessed)
Trust me you're not alone (Trust me you're not alone)
Anymore

5. Phantoms

When the moon is full
And the hounds of hell
Are howling in the night
And the church bell gives an angry yell
There's a screech of pain
Under a broken back street light
I feel her sweet pain
When there's phantoms in the night

Strangers in the night
In the darkness there
Hiding in the unlit
I know she's here I know she's here
Lovers at first sight
But I've never seen her face
She comes the stroke of midnight
To pray lay my soul to waste

She keeps calling my name
I can feel her near
She keeps calling my name
I can feel her stare

Strangers in the night
A softly whisper stare
The smell of sweet perfume
Scent in the air with lust and care
She comes for what she needs
She is my wildest dream
Sad wings against my body brush
I am her human touch

She keeps calling my name
I can feel her near
I keep hearing my name
Whispered breathless

Phantoms
Come save me a dream
Phantoms of the night
Phantoms
Come stay with me (Stay with me)
Phantoms of the night

She keeps calling my name
I can feel her near
I keep hearing my name
Whispered breathless

Phantoms
Come save me a dream
Phantoms of the night
Phantoms
Come stay with me (Stay with me)
Phantoms of the night

Phantoms
Come save me a dream (Come on and save me a dream)
Phantoms of the night (Of the night of the night)
Phantoms
Come stay with me (Stay with me)(Come on and stay with me)
Phantoms of the night

6. Never Too Young

Please don't stand in my way
I can't play this game no more
I don't see things your way
And I know one thing for sure

I won't give up a little sadness
I need to fill my life with madness

Cause you're never too young to die
Never too young to say goodbye
Never too young to die
Never too young to say goodbye

Please don't stand in my light
I've got time to pay tonight
You know I've stayed too long
I must seize the day before the day's long gone

I won't give up a little sadness
I need to fill my life with madness

Cause you're never too young to die
Never too young to say goodbye
Never too young to die
Never too young to say goodbye
Say goodbye

So here I am
Don't misunderstand
So here I am
I've got no plans
But I'm alive

Cause you're never too young to die
Never too young to say goodbye
Never too young to die (To die)
Never too young to say goodbye (To say goodbye)

Cause you're never too young to die
Never too young to say goodbye (To say goodbye)
Never too young to die (To die)
Never too young to say goodbye (To say goodbye)
Say goodbye
Say goodbye
Say goodbye

7. Be One Of Us

We sleep at day, we feed at night
We catch the flight
We taste the wine and life's a scream
And love's a bite

Silence breaks through the air
Eyes of flame, burn my stare
Can't resist it's way too strong
Come where only you belong

And be one of us
One of us come taste the wine and fly away
One of us last boys alive we die to play
One of us come taste the blood of life with me
One of us be one of us I know the way

We fear the sun, worship the moon
We've come undone
We've sold ourself, immortal youth
Nomads we are one

Silence breaks through the air
Eye's of flame burn my stare
Can't resist it's way too strong
Come where only you belong

And be one of us
One of us come taste the wine and fly away
One of us last boys alive we die to play
One of us come taste the blood of life with me
One of us be one of us I know the way

8. Psychodrama

I could make you believe, I could make you feel
I could be any one I want to be, it seems so real

What do you want to see, the villain is black
What do you want from me, to deceive
I'll fill your eyes with broken dreams

It's a psychodrama, caught in a web of mystery
Psychodrama, this is the place where my eyes can

Feel the pain they inflict on me
I'm a killer at large, on your movie screen

What do you want to be, the hero in white
What do you want from me, to believe
I'll fill your eyes with shattered schemes

It's a psychodrama, caught in a web of mystery
Psychodrama, there's no escape from what you see
Psychodrama, trapped in my world deceptively
Psychodrama, come inside with me, come inside and see my world

It's a psychodrama, caught in a web of mystery
Psychodrama, there's no escape from what you see
Psychodrama, no matter what you pretend to be
Psychodrama, in the theatre of cruelty
Psychodrama, you'll lose your mind, insanity
Psychodrama, in this land of obscurity

9. Waiting In The Wings

There's hope in he night
When eyes are ablaze
They've turned out the lights
On my way through the maze

I sold you a vision
But I sold out too cheap
And I'll never know which way do I go
Oh, I'm in too deep

Tragically I wonder always underground

[Chorus:]
I'm waiting in the wings
I'm watching for a way to make it out
I'm waiting for the wings
Take a chance you'll believe in me somehow

I see things clearly now
Time has changed me
I am a creation, now is that a strange thing
I know that you need me, oh I'm waiting, I'm waiting
Nothing's the same not even my name
Oh, this whole thing's been staged

Magically I'll appear without a sound

[Chorus]

Somehow we'll make it through
We got nothing to lose
Just take a chance

[Chorus]

10. Roll Over And Play Dead

In this theatre of cruelty
I'm the living page of mystery
No turning back I'm inside your head
Time to roll over and play dead

Cut to the chase scene the hero's amazing
Degenerate millionare filthy rich crazy

Sinners and cowards and hypocrites creedless
Powerless lost, double crossed
Here to eat us alive

We can survive, they can't make us they won't break our stride
We can survive never lay down and die

Roll over, roll over
Roll over and play dead (I said)
Roll over, roll over
Roll over and play dead

Sluts are your lovers, the streets are their haven
Their dreams all died hard when their pumps hit the pavement

Comas and golddust and promises, promises
Whitecoats and cutthroats they lied
No place to hide

We can survive, we can fake it they can't take our pride
we can survive, never lay down and die

Roll over, roll over
Roll over and play dead
Roll over, roll over
Roll over and play dead

11. Under The Rose

Under the rose, you pass me by
It only goes to show, I'm a visual lie

You know, that's how it goes

Under the rose

Standing in the shadows, behind the scenes
Understudy zero, you never noticed me

And I know you can't hear me
Yeah you know, that's how it goes

Under the rose

12. We Got The Power

Well the villain is the hero, and I'm torn, dirty and mod
I've gone from scorn to sensation, cause I'm great at being bad
I got the world in the palm of my hand

I break out the beast and make 'em understand
Never turn it down, shout it out loud

And I'm feeling strong, I can take it
Yeah I'm feeling strong, we can make it through

So turn it on, we got the power
Turn it up, we got the power

We own the night, if you follow my lead
Hide in plain sight, we'll make the suckers bleed
Never turn it down, shout it out loud

And I'm feeling strong, I can take it
Yeah I'm feeling strong, we can make it through

So turn it on,
We got the power
Turn it up, we got the power
