Fade In
PART
OF THE THREAT
You can't hear
what he's saying to you
You can't tell
when it's time to move
Never seen
it before, need to stay on guard
Part of the
threat
There's the
poison threat in his glass
Loose and ready
to go
Just another
one of the crowd
Unnamed and
unknown
Part of the
threat
He turns ready
to mix it up
Emotion smothered
in rage
Don't need
meaning when you're in motion
Need to stay
on guard
Part of the
threat
A new pulse,
a different attitude
Off the highway
on the other side
Take the vengeance
and make it fashion
Once part of
the threat
Now part of
the ticket
RELAPSE
I start again
I start in
I submerge
Safe as sin
I'm not a stranger
here
And I don't
want company
So please stop
coming 'round
Invading my
memory tonight
Rear view
Layed out
Like a map
Relapse
Overlooked
An obsession
Standing there
Blank expression
SOUNDTRACK
I'm always
on the verge
I'm always
about to start
Am I testing
it on the edge
Or is it just
here in my head?
Could it happen
this time
I see faces
this time
I hear voices
I pass out
And this soundtrack
in my head
Leading me
on
I run at everyone
But it's only
a passing thing
The desire
is real
As it seduces
you
My body's aching
My head is
spinning
I stand up
and then...
And this soundtrack
in my head
Leading me
on
I pierce my
thoughts with an empty stare
My guide to
hell and back
This fucking
imitation crap
The empty bottles
The empty pills
I knew it too
and still
And this soundtrack
in my head
Leading me
on and on
AFTERIMAGE
Fade in, pull
in that station
Just a memory,
a short duration
An early shadow,
a thousand doubts
A strange view,
in silhouette
One more breakthrough
You send me
the message
High overhead
in afterimage
uhhh...let's
see...he once told me
that he'd gained
his distance, he'd worked it out
to a scene,
he made no bones about letting everybody know...
he had the
clear picture now,
the upper hand..."she's
not talking about me
but I can hear
her speak," he says...
he still talks
about her...he calls it afterimage....
Singled out,
given choice motive
Too many pieces,
it passed unnoticed
One more breakthrough
You send me
the message
High overhead
in afterimage
SATELLITE
OF LOVE
Feel the scenes
Already in
motion
The pressure
is there
It surrounds
our senses
Now here we
sit
In our satellite
of love
Back to our
senses
With traces
above
The vision
is there
It surrounds
us
Back to our
senses
Satellite of
love
Now look outside
Out on the
air
No longer waiting
Time will abide
The wind rises
Feel its bite
Gently persuading
Pass on tonight
Now here we
sit
In our satellite
of love
No longer waiting
No longer waiting
The vision
is there
It surrounds
us
Back to our
senses
Satellite of
love
NO
DREAMS
Out here alone
is no place to be
The lights
are flashing and the rain is hard
The nights
are merging into total dreams
The nights
are strange carressing things
I slip into
my world of dreams
I'll be safe
out there
That dream
numbs me
The pressure
reaches a blurry pace
images just
slide on by
I can no longer
see her face
It's not exactly
what I had in mind
I slip into
my world of dreams, I escape
That dream
numbs me cold
I make my way
into this small cafe
Just a place
to rest my head and think
I still remember
when I left home
I guess I've
always been alone
I slip into
my world of dreams, I escape
That dream
numbs me
It numbs me
to reality
