IAMX : The Alternative
Тексты песен
1. PRESIDENT
They pull our strings
The animals
They blind, they breed the hate
Under their wing
We're scientist
We swallow what they think
For all you lonely boys
I will be president
In all you sons of men
I can be accident
Most fall in line
They do the dance
And salute the safest thing
Bought with their lives
Cry and socialize
And throw all the beauty away
2. THE ALTERNATIVE
Lay back
For me
You are just exactly what I need
In this cold town
Lay back
For me
The three of us in circus
And in liberty
It's been so long.
So throw your guilt religion
To the liars and the weak
This is the politics and war
Of ecstasy
And all the nonsense of that vision
That is failing every test
It's the comedy and death
Of your senses
The alternative to real world
Is just time for me and a fantasy
Be blind to myself
To idolise
The alternative to real world
Is just time for me and a fantasy
I'm blind to myself
And idolise
You work
So deep
Astonished and in rapture
I can barely speak
These are hard times
Hormones
In key
A slow whispered wet confession
From our body heat
There's no return.
3. NIGHTLIFE
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
The truth and dare of the drug for the first time
I click my heels and dance with the heat rise
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
The truth and dare of the drug from the baseline
The desire that the voodoo gives to a weak mind
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
The truth and dare of the drug for the first time
I click my heels and dance with the heat rise
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
The truth and dare of the drug from the baseline
The desire that the voodoo gives to a weak mind
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
The truth and dare of the drug for the first time
I click my heels and dance with the heat rise
I want to know how to survive in the nightlife
4. LULLED BY NUMBERS
Who put the mess in your head?
Filtering the sense of all your could have said
I stole the words from your mouth
So twisted in contagion, and reaching out
If this is the lullaby, then
Why am I not sleeping easy?
If you leave me alone, I will come home
Dragging my tails behind me
Sweetheart, don't hang me out to dry
When nothing is left
There is always us
When nothing is left
There is always us
If I could sing you to sleep
Lay you down and pray that your soul to keep
I would be all that you need
Wider eyes oblivious to everything
If this is the lullaby, then
Why am I not sleeping easy?
If you leave me alone, I will come home
Dragging my tails behind me
Sweetheart, don't hang me out to dry
When nothing is left
There is always us
When nothing is left
There is always us
When nothing is left
There is always us
When nothing is left
There is always us
5. SONG OF IMAGINARY BEINGS
My mother said that she could love
The physical way a woman should
Then where else could she go?
Where the sisters and the fathers can�t save her soul
Send them in, see them on
She can�t find a lover, she�ll fashion one
Imaginary men
Like the burned out poets in the hinterland
The phoenix says,
The devil says,
The serpent says,
The siren says,
Why is the word when the word needs the meaning?
The hourglass sees what shelf life does
She asked, exactly tell me what is love but grieving life alone
Just the words from prophets and religious shows
Imagine hurt, imagine tears
She opened up until she disappeared
Vanished, hand in hand,
With all the long-lost children locked in Neverland
The phoenix says
(Burn for me)
The devil says
(Lie for me)
The serpent says
(Burn for me)
The siren says
(Die for me)
6. THE NEGATIVE SEX
They know attention to obedience
The kids and wishes fix and forgotten for my self defence
We all want to fuck ourselves and rape the world
So the odds of the cops will prevail
And vanity, not bored, not love
Oh no, they can't leave it alone
Oh no, we can't leave it alone
Because a negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time
Show a man from examp? the alternative
It's all ammunition for the gender bend and the bedroom twist
They say that the fashion's just not feminist
But the sweet and the turn-on sits in the laps of the girls with the balls and the hits
Oh no, they can't leave it alone
Oh no, we can't leave it alone
Because the negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time
The negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time
Sex for a lifetime
Sex for a lifetime
Sex for a lifetime
7. BRING ME BACK A DOG
From the fall I hold the word conviction
And the thrill to the swell is in your golden touch
But the flesh is weak and without reason
So I slave to your beat and soul for all time
God give a little love, bring me back a dog in the next life
God give a little love, wanna be a dog in the next life
When you strike with soul and quick precision
I'm snagged by a nervous twitch and cold desire
They say the wretched get their kingdom
Breathe on, it's my time, let's go, we all die
The trouble is me, you
The trouble is me, you
The trouble is me, you
8. S.H.E.
You have been left alone
The creature of innocence
You lie for what you're worth
And struggle with your confidence
And when your devil complains
And tears you up, to start again
And when you're lying on your stage
And nothing works, just living hurts
Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion
Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion
And so we meet again
To players in a puppet show
Don't cry for audience
There's noone that can take you home
And when your devil complains
And tears you up, to start again
And when you're lying on your stage
And nothing works, just living hurts
Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion
Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion
Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion
Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion
Forget, forget
With the secret harmonic emotion
9. SPIT IT OUT
And if you're hurting
I will replace the noise with silence instead
Flushing out your head
If you like it violent
We can play rough and tumble
Fall into bed
And I won't breathe so you can recover
When you're in pieces
Just follow the echo of my voice
It's okay
Tune into that frequency
Don't fight your reflex
Embrace the instinct
You can feel your way
Through the bed and weak face in the end
'cause it breaks my heart
That we live this way
I know people need love
'cause them people never play the game
And we talk the talk
We communicate
The people need love
Those people never play the game
Pleasure for pleasure
It eases consequence
And love for a fall
But I know you love to take a risk
The past is weakness
Don't beg the question when the answer is war
There are moments when I'm overcome
'cause it breaks my heart
That we live this way
I know people need love
'cause them people never play the game
And we talk the talk
We communicate
Them people need love
Those people never play the game
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
In love
10. AFTER EVERY PARTY I DIE
You're living but you've got no soul
You captivate but you hold no weight at all
So watch as I start to smile
You dove and you think you're deep
You aggrevate but you always start to speak
So watch as I start to smile
After every party I die
After every party I die
The morning breaks us up inside
Payback, execution, killing time
So watch as I start to smile
There's something that you think you need
Trying your best to sleep on coke and speed
So watch as I start to smile
After every party I die
- Die after every party
After every party I die
- Die after every party
You're living but you've got no soul
You captivate but you hold no weight at all
So watch as I start to smile
Smile, smile, smile, smile
Smile, smile, smile, smile
Smile, smile, smile, smile
After every party I die
- Die after every party
After every party I die
- Die after every party
After every party I die
- I die after every party
After every party I die
- Die after every party
I die, after every party
I die after every party
11. THIS WILL MAKE YOU LOVE AGAIN
When the joys of living just leave you cold
Frozen from the failing mess you've made your own
And if you want an ending to your screenplay life
Well here's the consolation that will change your heart and mind
All the glitz Messiah's just pass the time
A cure for no real sickness, cross your hopes and die
Your supermarket Jesus comes with smiles and lies
Where justice he delays is always justice he denies
This will make you love again
This will make you love again
This will make you love again
This will make you love again
And now you save
Love again
To feel the rays
Love again
The sweet delays
Love again
And shoot the breeze
Early Thursday mornings, wipe away the flies
The crossfire fight for action in between your thighs
Every touch is sacred, when they leave the room
If I have to switch the lights off, I wanna switch them off with you
This will make you love again
This will make you love again
This will make you love again
This will make you love again
And now you save
Love again
To feel the rays
Love again
The sweet delays
Love again
And shoot the breeze
Love again
