GRACE
ONE
I'll touch you and you'll tingle.
Will I linger while you cry?
I can heat your little box.
I'd rather heal your hurt mind.
I'm only a trick if you act surprised.
I'm only a way,
I can't be your reason why.
You crave that thing that Grace can't do.
There's one sure way that wish comes true.
I'm here to make your dream hurt you.
CHORUS
Your Grace for a sweaty night,
lost inside a bottle of cheap wine.
You might have...

Flower
ONE
Is this a thing we should be in?
Is this a fight that we can win?
If there was something that had no name,
would you treat it just the same?
If there was a flower that had not a name,
Could you adore it just the same?
As these heavy thoughts taunt our little minds.
We need a Gift.
Perhaps a bit more time.
CHORUS
We're a life on trial,
just for your titillation.
Our pain served warm for your fasination.
In the dark dungeon that is your mind.
Your antique lies won't let you see,
the wonder...

PupPet
One
I can spell love.
One encounter at a time.
I don't need your heart,
no ones knows how 2 touch mine.
When you're a PupPet on a string,
you can't see those types of things.
When you're a PupPet bound by strings,
you're just some child's plaything.
Before I found those strings,
I had a target for a heart.
Before I cut those strings,
I was a silly, tangled thing.
CHORUS
You will be swayed.
Don't let them see your strings.
They will make you do,
so many silly things.
You...

Half Past
ONE
It's Half-past that SeXy Hour.
You're looking for love,
and I'm liking your flower.
I'll chat silky words,
they just aren't true.
Soon you're kissing lips that don't love you.
Don't you know,this isn't true.
Why don't you know I'm no good for you.
PRE-CHORUS
I have no wings,
baby I'm not your savior.
I ain't no angel,
so stop diggin' my flavor.
CHORUS
Hott words that aren't true,
drip from cold hearts that don't love you.
A forked tongue licks...

Bucket Of SiN
(One)
We're lost on streets,
all paved with pain,
We kiss that mistake again and again.
I drove past your church.
I tossed out my soul
Now there's need for passion inside this hole.
(Pre-Chorus)
Find a used heart,
a bucket for sin.
A bucket of sin (we live in a bucket)
The sin we swim in.
(Chorus)
A storm brews in a needle's eye,
a baby cries and floods the sky.
A moth to your flame,
you are always to blame.

ONE
I picked your flower in the rain.
I worshipped each petal again and again.
Now entwined in our sheets,
Still steamed with heat.
You know I’ll guard your dreams when you sleep.
As shadow darken and echoes end,
My emotions love your sins.
And every night we let them in.
Come and bless my sins.
Then baby let me in.
CHORUS
Baby, I’ll feed your moods,
Let me taste your emotions.
I love drifting lost, in your smokey ocean.
I’ll be your essence.
The fragrance of your life.
I want to undress you and...
