In this dying world of ours? So cut me up and eat me raw But now this is my final hour Why should I have to live I have nothing for life to give That's why I'm going to end it all and blow my brains over the wall It's over now I can't live on But the world will thrive now I am gone Bridges build no turning back The future now seems very black There was no one I could turn to No one except for you Now your dead and now your cold And to the devil my heart is sold Now I'm dead and soon be burned I've gone now but I'll return But when I'm gone and you'll be warned That hell on earth will soon be done Don't follow me You'll never find me I'll be hiding in the abyss Crying, singing sweet-boy. @SONG: THE JOKER Children of the future speeding Playing blackjack at a bent casino And the Joker's standing at the door Laughing at the world The future was murdered at the font The cradle of hope has died And in the dark he's incandescent >From his flame of blood and money Walked into a smoke-filled room Danced amongst the dying children I don't care about the future And the Joker cares only for the Joker Now today in all our greed All we want is sex and money But is there something all that wrong If life's about speed and power As we race towards our fate, the grave There's no one here that you can save So do your crime and pay no time Go to hell and don't come back The Joker murders for his life He destroys the world of millions But in this world there's death or glory And nurtures gifts form bent black money The Joker laughs the Joker cries The Joker lives from his black lies The Joker kills the Joker dies The Joker is, you and I @SONG: SILENT CRUCIFIXION Why don't you say what you think of me? Sometimes I'd like to know Hate is not to be ignored It won't just go away Soon you'll lose control I know It happened once to me The hate that you felt yesterday Is twice as strong today Let me know your hate is true Don't be scared, I'm not scared Let your hatred shine on through It kicks inside your empty head But no your silence shines like clouds Shining shadows on the sand Your hate is never said but felt Felt like holes nailed in my hands You crucify me a silent crucifixion You despise me But words couldn't hurt more Than your silent conviction Why don't you show what you think of me? Sometimes I'd like to see You can't hold on, just let it go Remember that it's only me You don't care you never did You never will so don't pretend Your chance to say it won't last long So say goodbye this is the end @SONG: GALLERY I feel the eyes All stare at me Nowhere to hide They see into my mind Know they're alive Look not glazed Like he who died In the picture frame My photo too will be a ghost in time Ugly thoughts Betray to them They see all All they see A fool Kneel on the floor Take from them The power held My whole life shared Plunge the knife so deep Bathe in the pool Turn out the light Still they stare Drift into sleep Meet them there Thriving on the endlessness of dream Running Footsteps going nowhere Fall hard into the bed And wake I opened not my mouth They heard me scream.
