Lyrics

 

Arson's Lullaby

I'm about to explode, so pour the gasoline

I won't burn it slow this time though (Let's light up the scene)

So if you set fire to me, I've already burned

I'm not scared to bleed for what I've earned

Play me the Arson's Lullaby

And let's set this place on fire

You say I seem a little angry? Darling, I'm only getting started

Wait and you'll see

There is no need for you to be concerned

I won't concede when the flames return

Play me the Arson's Lullaby

And let's set this place on fire

You'll hear me singing your name as we rise up in flames

Higher, we are going to start a fire

Soon you'll ignite, but for tonight I sing lullaby

Close your eyes, one day you'll set the whole world on fire

My beautiful Madeline, I sing to you the Arson's Lullaby


Black Dahlia Smile Me

I hear your buzz, little bee, you are the voice inside

I can help you leave the hive

Come waltz and see, Ms. Ali, I tell my inner child

Don't worry, young me, you'll survive

After the night's through and you start to breathe

You'll find you're not starring in a dark comedy

Noone is laughing

Black Dahlia Me, I'll only Smile if you slice from cheek to cheek

Make me your masterpiece, I'll be your trophy if you Black Dahlia Me

It's suddenly quiet, It's the dead of night

I'm under the bed and I am trying to hide just in case the creature arrives

It's harder to see the parts left of me

They'll sew up fine, dress them up to the nines and maybe someday I'll be liked

Now that the night's through and I have some peace

I'm going to show you the noise left in me, it never leaves

Stay seated please

(Dominique)

Come on over, behold the reconfiguration

Take your time, come and see

Cut me into pieces baby, frankenstein me

Tear me limb from limb to find out what's inside me

I'm here alone, your very own, pile of human bones

I won't lie, until I'm bound and tied so if you want to see me smile you'd better grab a knife

Black Dahlia Me, I'll only Smile if you slice from cheek to cheek

Make me your master, please

I'll be your trophy if you Black Dahlia Me


Professional Killer

Conquer your world, Study you quietly

Count the ways, I'll do anything you say

There will be no holding back

Legions of me

So cruel, longing eternally

Bittersweet possibilities

A tiger on the attack

Ready to bleed

Yours is not to ask why

Yours is to do and die

Professional killer

Tragically yours, Obey and submit to me

I will find you wherever you hide

Got a thrill for the hunt

A skilled criminal mind

So calm, tracking your every move

Unrelenting my conscious clear

Beyond a shadow of doubt

A force to be feared

Yours is not to ask why

Yours is to do and die

Professional killer

I think I'll find another way

There's so much more to know

I guess I'll die another day

It's not my time to go

For every sin I'll have to pay

I've come to work, I've come to play

I think I'll find another way

It's not my time to go

There's nothing left to try

There's no more place to hide

There's no greater power

Than the power of good-bye


Yours Truly, Ms. Darkside

I wanted to make you mine and wasted so much time

To try to coincide with your deluded paradise

It's pretty clear to me, no way you're that busy

So instead of waiting this last time, I'll send my RSVP

Dearest Ms. Sunshine,

I regretfully decline your new excuse tonight

Yours truly, Ms. Darkside

I'm sorry, but I won't be accepting these terms of inadequacy

So I sit down to write this letter 'cause I'm tired of all the deviant games

That you play like a child

Dearest Ms. Sunshine (Angel, goodbye)

I regretfully decline (There's no next time) your new excuse tonight

Yours truly, Ms. Darkside

Enjoy your day in the sunlight

I'm not coming, keep your invite


The Ghost Of You

I find solace in the dark, hold on to apathy

Breathe life into this revelation

I'm moving past denial and give weight to gravity

As it slips away before me

I know the truth is hiding in my shadow

This will be our last goodbye

Fall into the ghost of you

I try to justify what's now under my skin

Can't save you from the war that's within

There's nothing for us here, it's the ending of the show

The burden is the choice to let go

When I'm alone at night I only hear the room's sustain

Still you possess my mind

I can't let go of these chains, so let the haunting remain


Mad Queen

Checkered, unrequited love has got you blinded

And I see it fueling wrath

You're a ticking time bomb that's looking for a hostage,

But I won't be the one in your path

It never seems to get through that I feel nothing for you

How'd you come unglued and a mess?

I tell you you bore me, so why do you adore me?

You're like a bad game of chess

She's a Mad Queen with everyone she meets

She's a Mad Queen with everything she sees

Nothing in sight is black and white

That tattoo that says "truth" only helps me to prove that you're a pathological liar

You're not a victim to what I won't give to you and I'll never return your desire

How many times do I need to say there's no way in hell?

No, I've never seen this kind of crazy before, but still I can tell that this won't end well

She's always blurring the lines, never can read the signs

Despite how much she's denied she'll try another time

How many times do I need to say no? You'll never learn

Even if I back out now and smile as I go I still know I'm going to get burned

She's a Mad Queen


Gabaghoul (Love Song For My Dog)

Under the dimming lights

When I lay down at night

I look at you and I see

All of my serenity

Please won't you stay next to me for all eternity

Don't leave me I beg you, I'll never forget you my love

No matter what you do, I'll love 'til we turn to dust

At the end of the day there's only face I want to see

And that's you looking back at me

I can play you Chopin or Tchaikovsky

But when I hear you sleep you are my favorite symphony


Vicious Ballet

Breathe in and put this suit back on again

Wasting my time trying to rake in something I don't want

I know you'll still give it to me

The show that you'll be sold is an illusion but I'll make it magical

But I don't have to try, I always find the peace of mind

Sell you snake oil, look how it shines

Let's dance away, out of this Vicious Ballet

I'll work my voodoo, you'll never know I've swindled you

So gather your friends and step right up to grab a ticket to the show

Then give the monkey all your money 'cause I'm tired and want to go home

I know that I don't show all of my feeling but that's responsible

Cause when I smile to hide the lies I leave behind all that's inside, now it's time

Let's dance away, out of this Vicious Ballet
