Standard (EADGBE)
Main Riff: ,
It doesn't matter if we all die
Ambition in the back of a black car
In a high building there is so much to do
Going home time
A story on the radio
Something small falls out of your mouth
And we laugh
A prayer for something better
A prayer for something better
Please love me
Meet my mother
But the fear takes hold
Creeping up the stairs in the dark
Waiting for the death blow
Bridge
Waiting for the death blow
Waiting for the death blow
Repeat Main Riff: Cm, B
Stroking your hair as the patriots are shot
Fighting for freedom on the television
Sharing the world with slaughtered pigs
Have we got everything?
She struggles to get away
The pain and the creeping feeling
A little black haired girl
Waiting for Saturday
The death of her father pushing her
Pushing her white face into the mirror
Aching inside me
And turn me around
Just like the old days
Just like the old days
Bridge
Just like the old days
Just like the old days
Caressing an old man
And painting a lifeless face
Just a piece of new meat in a clean room
The soldiers close in under a yellow moon
All shadows and deliverance
Under a black flag
A hundred years of blood
Crimson
The ribbon tightens round my throat
I open my mouth
And my head bursts open
A sound like a tiger thrashing in the water
Thrashing in the water
Over and over
We die one after the other
Over and over
We die one after the other
Bridge
One after the other
One after the other
One after the other
One after the other
Crd:
It feels like a hundred years
A hundred years
A hundred years
A hundred years
A hundred years
One hundred years
Main Riff: , , ,
Movement
No movement
Just a falling bird
Cold as it hits the bleeding ground
He lived and died
Catch sight
Cover me with earth
Draped in black
Static
White sound
Here is the brige:
A day without substance
A change of thought
An atmosphere that rots with time
Colours that flicker in water
A short term effect
Repeat the main riff over the verse:
Scream
As she tries to push him over
Helpless and sick
With teeth of madness
Jump jump dance and sing
Sideways across the desert
A charcoal face
Bites my hand
Time is sweet
Derange and disengage everything
A day without substance
A change of thought
An atmosphere that rots with time
Colours that flicker in water
A short term effect
Repeat Main Riff: , , ,
A short term effect
A short term effect
A short term effect
An echo
And a stranger's hand
A short term effect
An echo
And a stranger's hand
A short term effect
Creatures kissing in the rain
Shapeless in the dark again
In the hanging garden please don't speak
In the hanging garden no one sleeps
Riff
Catching haloes on the moon
Gives my hands the shapes of angels
In the heat of the night
The animals scream
In the heat of the night
Walking into a dream...
Fall fall fall fall
Into the walls
Jump jump out of time
Fall fall fall fall
Out of the sky
Cover my face as the animals die
In the hanging garden
In the hanging garden
Creatures kissing in the rain
Shapeless in the dark again
In a hanging garden
Change the past
In a hanging garden
Wearing furs and masks...
Fall fall fall fall
Into the walls
Jump jump out of time
Fall fall fall fall
Out of the sky
Cover my face as the animals die
In the hanging garden
In the hanging garden
}*4
I chose an eternity of this
Like falling angels the world disappeared
Laughing into the fire, is it always like this ?
Flesh and blood and the first kiss
The first colors the first kiss.
}*2
(repeat throughout the verse)
We writhed under a red light
Voodoo smile, siamese twins
Girl at the window looks at me for an hour
Then everything falls apart
Broken inside me, it falls apart.
The walls and the ceiling move in time
Push a blade into my hands, slowly up the stairs
And into the room
Is it always like this ?
Dancing in my pocket
Worms eat my skin
She glows and grows with arms outstretched
Her legs around me, in the morning I cried.
}*4
(repeat )
Leave me to die, you won't remember my voice
I walked away and grew old
You never talk, we never smile
I scream you're nothing
And I don't need you anymore
You're nothing
It fades and spins
Fades and spins.
Sing out loud we all die
Laughing into the fire
Is it always like this ?
Is it always like this ?
No Chord
Is it always like this ?
Sharp and open, leave me alone and sleeping less every night
As the days become heavier and weighted
Waiting in the cold light
A noise, a scream tears my clothes as the figurines tighten
With spiders inside them
And dust on the lips of a vision of hell
I laughed in the mirror for the first time in a year.

Verse 2

A hundred other words blind me with your purity
Like an old painted doll in the throes of dance I think about tomorrow
Please let me sleep as I slip down the window freshly squashed fly
You mean nothing, you mean nothing.

I can lose myself in Chinese art and American girls
All the time lose me in the dark please do it right
Running into the night I will lose myself tomorrow
Crimson pain, my heart explodes
My memory in a fire and someone will listen at least for a short while.

Verse 4
*4:51*
Too many secrets, too many lies writing with hatred
Too many secrets, please make it good tonight
But the same image haunts me in sequence, in despair of time
I will never be clean again
Touched her eyes, pressed my stained face
I will never be clean again (Figure 1)
Touch her eyes, press my stained face
I will never be clean again
I will never be clean again
I will never be clean again
I will never be clean again.
Outro
Drums *6:02-6:13*
Give me your eyes that I can see
The blind man kissing my hands
The sun is humming
My head turns to dust as he plays on his knees
As he plays on his knees
And the sand and the sea glows I close my eyes
Move slowly through drowning waves
Going away on a strange day
And I laugh as I drift in the wind
Blind
Dancing on a beach of stone
Cherish the faces as they wait for the end
Sudden hush across the water
And we're here again
And the sand
And the sea grows
I close my eyes
Move slowly through drowning waves
Going away
On a strange day
And the sand and the sea glows I close my eyes
Move slowly through drowning waves
Going away on a strange day
My head falls back and the walls crashed in
And the sky and the impossible explodes
And for one moment I remember a song
An expression of sounds
And the everything is gone forever

SYNTH PROGRESSION CHORDS: , , , , ,
GUITAR PROGRESSION CHORDS: Bm, G
Scarred
Your back was turned
Curled like an embryo
Take another face
You will be kissed again
I was cold as I mouthed the words
And crawled across the mirror
I wait
Await the next breath
Your name
Like ice into my heart
Main Riff: , (x2)
A shallow grave
A monument to the ruined age
Ice in my eyes
And eyes like ice don't move
Screaming at the moon
Another past time
Your name
Like ice into my heart
Main Riff: , (x2)
Repeat the progression chord through the verse:
Everything as cold as life
Can no one save you?
Everything
As cold as silence
And you never say a word
Your name
Like ice into my heart (x2)
The basics chords are:
A hand in my mouth
A life spills into the flowers
We all look so perfect
As we fall down
In a n electric glare
The old man cracks with age
She found his last picture
In the ashes of the fire
An image of the queen
Echoes round the sweating bed
Sour yellow sounds inside my head
In books
And films
And in life
And in heaven
The sound of slaughter
As your body turns
But its too late
The Brigde chords are:
One more day like today and Ill kill you
A desire for flesh
And real blood
And Ill watch you drown in the shower
Pushing my life through your open eyes
I must fight this sickness
Find a cure...
