Iva Lang 04:12
IVA LANG Iva Lang, I’m breaking up the band for you Iva Lang, I’m staying in my hotel room Iva Lang, I’m writing all my songs for you Iva Lang “I Love You” Now I know, I’ll always feel your strange electric glow I know it’s true. Now I see, I’ll always have your ghost inside of me, I know it’s you. I don’t want you, please understand my meaning In a violent dream I kill you while you're sleeping In a strangled scream you stare up to my ceiling I don’t want you, I don’t want you. Iva Lang, I’m breaking up the band for you Iva Lang, I’m tearing up my hotel room Iva Lang, now all my songs are out of tune Iva Lang I Love You Now I know I’ll always feel your strange electric glow I know it’s true Now I see I’ll always have your ghost inside of me, I know it’s you. Like a storm cloud I hover where you're sleeping In a black shroud I smother out your weeping In a strangle hold I look down on you freaking I don’t want you, I don’t want you Now I know I’ll never be free, Now I know I’ll never be free

Sometimes, I only want to tell you lies about me Sometimes, I don’t want you to know where I will be I see you, there across the room you come towards me See you, you only want to pull me into you and... That’s what happens when they take you to their world and try to break you And guess what happens when they get you? They suck out all the life that’s in you This time, I’m only going to say it once If you don’t hear me, then you’re not going to see me hanging round I promise, I’m not going to waste what time I’m given tied up, by your hooks and chains so just forget it. That’s what happens when they take you to their world and try to break you And guess what happens when they get you? They suck out all the life that’s in you And this is my life and I’m not going to waste on anyone Cause this is my time alone. This is my life, so go away don’t call me anymore This is my time alone. Sometimes, I only want to tell you lies about me Sometimes, I don’t want you to know where I will be I see you, there across the room you come towards me See you, you only want to pull me into your world don't you That’s what happens when they take you to their world and try to break you And guess what happens when they get you? They suck out all the life that’s in you

Were you sent to torture me or save me from my enemies or leave me in my place? You stand in silent shroud staring frozen through the clouds like stars illuminate Your soul in colors flow unfolding from its ancient hold then blankets out the sky I sit in shadow room safe within my solitude as tears erase your eyes I don't want you to go away uneasy taking with you your violent little ghost I don't want you to fall into the shadows getting lost in a stranger's world ...everybody else is wrong You want to be the one to save me from the dying sun and lead me to your soul To psychoanalyze, to conjure up and paralyze the secrets I don't know You want to be the savior way up in your tower high look down on everyone To raise your hand and sigh "release them from their world of lies" oh just leave me alone You don't want me to go away uneasy taking with me my violent little ghost You don't want me to fall into the shadows getting lost in a stranger's world ...everybody else is wrong

The Telepath 02:45
I was in a state of frenzy, shaken by addiction strung out on the fire escape in violent conniptions Then staring at the silent sky in mindless meditation hovering my death with the godhead salivating This is the day, we've waited so long The telepath smiles but there's nobody home The shadows embrace all the things that we've known Then we sink from the human race I was in a forest wandering lost in my illusions Then staring at my hands and standing silent in confusion Voices grow inside then everything is spinning violent My soul is levitating in a moment of defiance This is the day, we've waited so long The telephone rings but there's nobody home The shadows erase everything that we've known Then we sink from the human race Now I know, I can't pretend to let you go Now I see, the ugly child inside of me This is the day, we've waited so long The telepath smiles but there's nobody home The shadows embrace everything that we've known Then we sink from the human race We sink from the human race I don't wanna know you I don't wanna see you I don't wanna take you home I don't know if I can see you I don't know if I will ever lead you on I don't even know if I could ever take you down I want to be alone

Vicious 03:04
I don't know what I would do if my happiness depends on you I don't know where I would be If you're the one who held the key I don't know just where I stand You're the one that's in command I'd rather be alone than with you with your heart of stone I can see your world and it's so vicious I don't know why your suspicions always lead you to conclusions I deny Everything you say just sticks into me I don't know why you refuse to see The tears in my eyes I don't know why you can't find the enemy inside your mind Does everything slip you by? I don't know why you can't see the eyes of god inside of me I'd set you free I can see your world and it's so vicious I don't know why your suspicions always lead you to conclusions I deny Everything you say just sticks into me I don't know why you refuse to see The tears in my eyes
