A question long been festering
Inside a burning head
On fire like the streets you’re on
With all those people dead
Wonder do you sleep tonight
When outside it gets dark
As easy as the thread got pulled
In our Glenfada Park
A city lost her souls in the shadow of her wall
When they tried to take her soul
She just stood, she would not fall
No, no
Put me up against the wall
Can you paint away the red?
Like you covered over history
Buried what you did
But you’d never keep it buried
Lies don’t dim the truth
Sent a man in horsehair
To steal a city’s youth
A city lost her souls in the shadow of her wall
When they tried to take her soul
She just stood, she would not fall
No, no
A city lost her souls in the shadow of her wall
When they tried to take her soul
She just stood, she would not fall
Said a city lost her souls in the shadow of her wall
When you tried to take her soul
She just stood, she would not fall
No fall
No fall
No, no, no

Self-denigration?

It's just a sign I am as low as anybody can be
I don’t think anyone here would even try to help me
I open my mouth; it’s getting harder to speak
I tear at my skin; why did they give it to me?
I cut you into me
I cut you into me
I cut you into me
I cut you into me
And I’ll take anything that you have to clear my memory
To just seal my eyes shut so I never again have to see.
Won’t you numb my brain; it doesn’t allow me to sleep
Drain my blood of all these impurities please
I cut you into me
I cut you into me
I cut you into me now
I cut you right into me
All of your alternative bibles try to sell my misery
They’re all offering cures for everything that don’t heal
But how can I swim if the water’s already this deep?
Won’t you listen to me, I’m here, I’m trying to speak
I cut you into me
I cut you into me
I cut you into me now
I cut you into me
Look what you’ve done to me
So take a look what you’ve done to me
Look what you’ve done to me now
Just take a look what you’ve done

Have you seen her?
I know she's been here
I got to find her
I need to remind her
She's got me goin'
She's got me goin'
She's got me goin'
I’m really goin'
She's what I want, yeah she's all that I need
Knows what I want cos she can see it in me
Time's come and gone you know she makes me believe
There's no goin' on until she's with me
So have you seen her?
See I got to find her
I know she's been here
I need to remind her
Got me goin'...
She's what I want, yeah she's all that I need
Because she knows what I want she can see it in me
Time's come and gone, you know she makes me believe
There's no goin' on until she's with me
So have you seen her?
