PSYCHOTIC WALTZ LYRICS

1. Faded

faded, faded
fell from the sky below
faded, faded
from the sky you know

crashing through the window
fly on the wind of my soul
hover, hummingbird
UFO beautiful
beautiful

magic, electric
raining through the sky
raining emotion
how they bleed from my eye

crashing though the darkness
engraving my name on the world
hover, hummingbird
skies unimagined
skies unimagined
beautiful

blind confusion in the air
but there's something there
there's something there

faded, faded
fell from the sky below
faded, faded
from the sky you know

crashing through the mirror
fly on the wind of my soul
hover, hummingbird
UFO beautiful

blinding light, winding sound
spinning grace defies the ground
beautiful
UFO, UFO beautiful

2. Locust

when the mist of the morning falls
a silence calls from the faith
baying at the window of my wondering
everything is faded, growing near to the ground
hiding in a corner of the doorway
the light is the fear of the shadow

near the leaves where the locust leaps
the spider's under the streets
in her catacomb museum
her lovers' mausoleum
with the kiss of the killing doors
the darkness creeps down the stairs of my vision and I feel the walls inside
I feel someone inside me now

everything is faded, growing near to the ground
hiding in a corner of the doorway
shadow of the world
a field of locust swarming down again
a field of locust swarming down

now the jackals of the nightmare
lay at the feet of the lunatics
hands through the dark are crawling over me
shadow of the world
a field of locust swarming down again
a field of locust swarming down
a field of locust swarming down again
a field of locust swarming down

3. Morbid

roses that you bring
give to one another
I don't know why
they're dying for your love

in love we sacrifice them
how morbid, how morbid
and now our graves surround them
how morbid, how morbid

the cross that killed the man
nails driven into his hand
cried to the sky
am I dying for your love?

now you kiss
your rosary, your crucifix
justify a murder
you really like to bleed your martyr

in love we sanctify them
how morbid, how morbid
and now our graves surround them
how morbid, how morbid

in love we sacrifice them
how morbid, how morbid
and now our graves surround them
how morbid, how morbid

4. Bleeding

now the wind won't blow away
the sun won't come out to save the rainy day
going nowhere, not today
the great tomorrow's coming anyway

from a tear in the sky, crying inside
blood of the sun is blinding my mind now
we're bleeding, we're bleeding
come on we're bleeding
bleeding

now the world won't turn for me
never really came out what it seemed to be
you pull away, you push around
you'll come running when your world's coming crashing down
The rain's falling down
I'm drowning inside
Killing my prayer so deeply I cry aloud

we're bleeding, we're bleeding
come on we're bleeding
bleeding
we're bleeding, we're bleeding now
come on we're bleeding
bleeding
bleeding
come on we're bleeding, we're bleeding

5. Need

needing, feeling alone
light never seems to shine
hiding under a stone
now I understand that deep inside
you need to make me feel

something inside her
she's closing the door
screaming inside her smile
she don't cry anymore

feeling her prayer, breathing her pain
dreaming her tears gone by
now she's out of the rain
now I understand that deep inside
you need to make me feel

words fly like missiles
they're flying on now
. . . rest your mind, rest your mind . . .

your lips destroy like missiles
your whispers fly
your whispers fly like missiles
your lips destroy
words fly like missiles
they're flying on now

6. Drift

slow it down, turn around
rain again forever
drift on my way
lift my soul through the overgrow

stone my soul down below
serenade the dying
cold blind grave, midnight shade
death embrace this evening
drift on my way, drift on my way
drift away. . .

bells of dawn turn you on
can you hear them ringing?
birds of song flying on
can you hear them singing?
drift on my way, drift on my way
now I drift on my way, drift on my way
drift away. . .

7. Northern Lights

laughing at the city freaks
a carnival of gimps and tweaks
dogs are hungry for the meat
they drag it screaming through the street
everybody passing by
afraid to look them in the eye
corner dealer selling while I tell him
I don't want to buy

one night of calm, through the Netherlands
to northern lights and incense surrounding again
now we are coming, Amsterdam will bring
northern lights and incense again

wait at the corner for a white electric caterpillar ride take us to the
other side
(where the Katsu and the Old Man hide)
flying through the cloudy day
feeling like I'm far away
nothing like a sky of gray to keep me feeling in my way

one night of calm, through the Netherlands
to northern lights and incense surrounding again
now we are coming, Amsterdam will bring
northern lights and incense again

one night of calm, through the Netherlands
to northern lights and incense surrounding again
now we are coming, Amsterdam will bring
northern lights and incense again

can you see the city lights chase the shadows from the night?
(still the ember burning bright)
now we never pass it to the right
the stars are in the sky another color in my eye
feeling happy, feeling high
(feeling like I'm still alive)

8. Sleep

shades of gray
in the color field
bring silent nothing for me
sleep silent
sleep silent

close your eyes
open your mind
sweet whispers nail into you
so silent
sleep silent

bleed
you're gonna let me bleed
you're gonna let me bleed
you're gonna let me bleed
let me bleed, let me bleed

9. My Grave

they're cracking the cross where they hammer the nail
pennies they laid on the windows that failed
not really gone, but I'm so far away
all of your prayers cried at once all too late
once you fall down, end the round
end the round

shades of my dark hour light where I lay
someone I don't know is passing my way
don't want to go, but I can't really stay
now I wait for this no one to take me away

given to the ground
end the round
tears are falling down
given to the ground
end the round

drums of the death marchers
drone through the day
the funeral flowers macabre disarray
fall to the tears and the dirt where they lay
now they've all come at once
and they've all come too late
given to the ground
end the round, end the round
end the round, end the round
end the round, end the round now
end the round, end the round
end the round

10. Skeleton

digging in through the crypt inside my mind
echoes of a hollow prayer of the unknown
diggin' up the bones
diggin up the bones
we're gonna dig up the bones
ghetto of my soul is a skeleton
chaining down the ghost of my mind

I am a psychedelic gray
a screaming skeleton
I fall into the sinkhole of my grave
we're all bleeding
you know that we're all bleeding
god come on begin the dawn that we bleed again
diggin' up the bones
diggin up the bones
we're gonna dig up the bones
ghetto of my soul is a skeleton
chaining down the ghost of my mind

locked inside the cage of a skeleton
I'm a wasted mind of space and time
I'm a ghost in chains
float the plains among the living
rise from the remains
to be gone
diggin' up the bones
diggin up the bones
we're gonna dig up the bones
ghetto of my soul is a skeleton
chaining down the ghost of my mind
locked inside the cage of a skeleton
I'm a wasted mind of space and time
ride on . . .

11. Freedom?

people can you feel anymore?
look through the keyhole, listen at the door
can you see? can you see?

freedom is blowing away
by the wind that flies your flag
the pride of yesterday
people can you breathe anymore?
do you remember what you're fighting for?
are you free? can you be?
are you free? can you see?

can you feel my soul?
can you feel?
can you feel the quiet cold?

are you free? can you be?
are you free? can you see?

now I drift so far away
will you close the door behind?
we'll fly where the sun will shine
alone and free, to go where we'll never be . . .
