In the water, In the womb
In the dream where you'll be too soon
To the place where the children play
In the dark of the corner at the end of the day
At the bottom, In a room
Where the bodies ascend and swoon
The faces drift and the bodies sway
At the edges of the corners, in the fading away
You'll be back, You'll go back
Make it go away
Make it all go away
Shut up, Shut down, Cut up, Unwound
Turn off all the sound
Crawl into the ground
Let it fade to grey
Make it all go away
In a tunnel, In the hall
Queuing up for the push and fall
To the bottom of the crushing sea
With the lost and forgotten and the finally free
In the sunshine, the open air
In the kingdom of the son and heir
To the fortune of the fourth estate
In the language of love, in the fortress of fate
You'll look back, You'll go black
(chorus)

Wake up with a new disease on your tongue
I'd give you mine but you won't swallow
You won't let it overcome
These pills are sweet but sugar makes you blind and dumb
And quick to want and to forget, eager
for another one
Mute again
I'm mute again
Now you're breathing through your teeth
The stale air of morning
Listening to nearby voices
Talking in that sharp tone
Like a stern lecture to a stupid child
But these voices belong to friends
It seems
Mute again
I'm mute again
In restlessness my muscles quiver and shake
Jerking in and out of stillness
Oblivion
These pills are so sweet, I take another one
Startled at the call of my name
Thinking I was alone, I let the voices swim
Let them overcome
But I am woken by the cold breath of morning
And the new taste of disease on my tongue

In the red room
Things are not what they seem
In the red room
Things appear as in a dream
The red room lies, it shields and hides
Colours disappear
And lines are not as clear
In the red room
We're all gorgeous, in jaded elegance
In the red room
It's delicious, like bitter eloquence
The red room lies, it tricks our eyes
In crimson candlelight
And daytime turns to night
In the red room
Shed your skin, forget your sick reality
In the red room
Step right in to immaculate fantasy
The red room tries to change our lives
With hazy atmosphere
But it's so insincere
In the red room
Tell a tall tale that no one will disclose
In the red room
Pick your poison and strike a pretty pose
The red room lies, it tricks our eyes
Nothing seems quite right
And there's no escape in sight
There's no escape in sight
lyrics copyright A. Goble 2003
Feel the burn of every pair of eyes that stare
Wonder when you'll have the guts to get out of there
Your speculation is the subject of spectacle
How did ridicule become so respectable?
Don't look at me, I'm not the one you want
Don't look at me, I'm not the one you want
Don't look at me, I've got you figured out
Don't look at me, Don't look at me
The lights grow dim and the music becomes a din
A different person is emerging beneath your skin
Your isolation is what made you an icicle
Fear and loathing really are reciprocal
(chorus)
Voices melt into a drone and you're all alone
You're suffocating and your body has turned to stone
You can't believe that you don't even try to leave
How can you scream when you feel you can't even breathe?
(chorus)
lyrics copyright A. Goble 2003
"See the moon? It hates us"
Even the stars have turned their backs on us
I've erred on the side of frailty
I've erred on the side of too much too soon
All this metal I wear keeps my flesh soft
All this metal holding this chrome illusion
Unstable unfixed so it will pass
Our image is printed on glass
Ice cubes and tiny bones
I've erred on the side of the dark unknown
(chorus)
Like antique paper crumbles to dust
Iron cages will quietly rust
I've erred on the side of frailty
I've erred on the side of keeping my mouth shut
(chorus)
lyrics copyright A. Goble 2003
Dare you to go
On a trip to
Neverland
Try hard to forget the fun
Know it's the only one
Now is the time, now you're
On the line
What you gonna do, Where you gonna go
What you gonna do
How's it going to end
And now you're cornered
Too bad it's too late
Lonely girl falls in love
Only child on the way
(chorus)
Very quickly you are gone
End is near for her as well
Inside she slips
Slowly to hell
(chorus)
