Lyrics:

ACHE
"...you're falling into the void ...and it seems like there's no escape (it can't be filled) There's that emptiness inside you, it cant be filled (it can't be filled)..."

Hey Babe, do you remember me? It wasn't all that long ago
You looked at me with love in your eyes - it's killing me inside
Now you stare at me with black hole eyes - an empty house with broken lights
You didn't even say goodbye - you never even even said goodbye

It's poisonous baby, it'll take you down farther than far
You'd stab your friends, hell you'll stab yourself
In the heart of your heart
A skeleton with a rictus grin in a big black Cadillac
Driving off into the western wind
And you wont be coming back - no...

CLOSER TO THE EDGE
I stared into the void, the dead were all around
Their mouths were empty holes, they couldn't make a sound
They drifted in the dark, the rivers all ran dry
They had lost the light, my hand was full of dust

The closer that I am, the farther I draw away...
The nearer that I edge, my nature turns a darker shade
Closer to the edge... Closer to the edge...

They were hungry for a little taste, a little spark of light
Something they could feel, a little bit of life
Oh, they hunger, because everything turned black
And now they can't come back

They were hungry...Closer to the edge... Closer to the edge...

UNIVERSAL MONK
He dons his saffron robes. Latch his sandals down
Sunglasses on Max-Dim. A little jaunt to town
Provisions for the mind - Veni for audium
Never know just what he'll find in the vinyl record bins

He is a Universal Monk - look out

Open the shades, hey let in the light
Open the shades man let in that light, oh yeah - look out

MORE LIGHT
You can call me a freak or any of your names
Sticks and stones can break my bones, but so can your mind games
Every day's another challenge just to have a life
Where's the brotherhood of man? Is everything a lie?

I won't say that I won't miss all these things
Whenever I am gone and they take me to my new home...

Sometimes I want to die. If only I knew why
The chemistry inside the mind of a man who's just a child
You could utter some platitudes of comfort, son
But you can't undo the damage of a life

You know how much I will miss you everyday
I will miss the things you say and I will miss the way we play

Someday you're going try to see if you can fly
Standing on the edge of nothing, a fearless leap of faith on trial
And if you find your wings an Icarus on puppet strings
Your fall could blind those living in the light

More Light... More Light...

OUT OF THE DARK
Addie's playground is scummed with rusty heaps
Lost his marbles, because they all play for keeps
Johnny Do-good swings higher than the rest
Mother Mary wears her Sunday best, although the purse is small
With gnashing fangs out of the dark it calls

Captain Killjoy cons an empty ship
Hard to larboard, gives everyone the slip
Freniere Slim Jim is in from Omaha
Wearing his porkpie hat and bouncing off the walls
He ends his night with Satin Dolls
Oh baby baby, out of the dark it calls

It's no case of shadows in the light
Knowing what I know now, everything would be all right
It's ok I'm flying in the dark
Navigate by radar, even if it takes all night
We'll be all right... be all right...

FALL
If you fall I fall, too - Hold on
And if you fall, I'm falling with you - Hold on
Why oh why... Why oh why?

If you hurt I hurt, too - Hold on
And if you hurt, I'm hurting with you - Hold on

WALLS
They gathered 'round the walls of faith with patient swords
A fortress doomed to fall without a blow
Snow geese flew above the wrath and ruins below
Pale moonlight shining on their wings a silver glow

I was witness to this madness that afflict most men

Joshua blew his bright horn and it was a cold day in hell
Promises kept that were sworn as the frail walls of Jericho fell
But I could hear them say, "Don't worry,
There's a new day on the way... There's a new day on the way."

The slaughter raged as bloody blades rose and fell
Tireless as the wings that flew above
A single feather drifted down, silently
It floats forever in my memory

I could see the smoke rising beneath their wings

Joshua blew his bright horn as the bells tolled a cold and final knell
And even the children were torn as the thin walls of Jericho fell
But I could hear their screams - no mercy
There's a new day on the way... There's a new day on the way

PLAY
When I discovered the ice was gone
I couldn't put my finger on what was wrong
I'd heard the maps were suspect anyway
I just wish it was any other day

And maybe I've gone away (He has gone away)
Still it's a sunny day (He has gone away)
Play (Play the game just play the game)

Somehow I made it through another day
The shadows in my mind turning everything gray
Waiting for the clouds to leave and let in the sun
Hard to remember when everything was fun

And maybe I've gone away (He has gone away)
Still it's a sunny day (He has gone away)
Play

BORN LOSER
This is your life: I won't stay alone... I won't stay alone
Yeah they all told me I was born a loser
Well they all told me I was born a loser

If you can't win fair and square... have to break the rules I guess
If you can't win fair and square... just have to break the rules I guess

This is your life: I won't stay alone... I won't stay alone
Yeah they all told me I was born a loser
Well they all told me that I was born a loser

If you can't win fair and square... have to break the rules I guess
If you can't win fair and square... just have to break the rules I guess

This is your life...

MUSE
And she sits and smokes and stares, remotely through the passenger window
Miles away the pain a pharmaceutical glow
And I... I want to reach over and take her hand in mine
But I just drive. I just drive

And she's a mystery a foreigner in this dream
My reluctant muse, questioning her beliefs
And I would analyze but deep down you know I haven't lost the feelings
I have for her
