1. THE CHRISTMAS SONG

In this world of snow and cold I'll hide
In this world of ice I've built with pride
Of all things that I'd most like to receive
There's just one thing I really want this Christmas Eve
I believe, I believe it's you

I know youre out there waiting in the cold
All shimmering and blue and warm to hold
But if I try and really do believe
I'll get just what I'm waiting for this Christmas Eve
I believe, I believe it's you

Nothing can compare
Nothing can come close to you
Nothing can compare
Nothing else will ever do

Buried in the snow I'll wait for you
And keep on wishing 'till my dreams come true
I feel your touch, it melts the world away
And we'll be together in the light of Christmas Day
Far away, far away with you.


2. LET ME BREAK YOU

What on earth went wrong
Just tell me what went wrong
Can't understand just how you feel

I know the end is near
But I no longer fear
That what we had was so unreal

Why can't you feel it?
You had to know
How could you steal it?
Let me break you

You made it all so mad
Love or control gone bad
It seems to me you don't play fair
I've come to know your kind
Through innocence then blind
Believed in something that was never there...

4. TOUR BEST NIGHTMARE (LIVE-REMIX/ACOUSTIC)

Long after midnight, on a night like this
I'd sit by my blacklight and dream of your kiss
Pulsating music filled my room and my head
And I dreamed what it'd be like to have you in my bed

I'm your best nightmare

And then it happened, you were in my arms
Your lips on my throat- your hands on my, on my...
Two bodies together the intimate sin
The pain and the pleasure could do mortals in
How could you know what I'm thinking of
To me lust can be as beautiful as love
Here tonight, your pure heart and soul
Untainted passion should have no control

She asked me if I...
I told her the truth
I said "I'm sorry it takes me longer than you"
She smiled and blushed and continued to grind
And promised to make me go out of my mind

Returning her promise she came to a halt
Licking my lips I tasted her salt
Then she sat up and gasped and clutched at her breast
I thought she was coming- I'd never have guessed that
As she grew pale, as white as a flower
She collapsed to the floor and was dead in an hour.

I'm your best nightmare


5. SHATTER (LIVE-ACOUSTIC)

You're telling me
That I'm the most important thing to you,
But can't you see?
You're killing me with all the things you do,
And I really want to believe it's impossible
I really want to believe it's all a dream,
But I just can't seem to wake up,
I just can't seem to turn on the light,
One step off the edge
And the world will seem all right

You did it again,
Yes you in the mirror,
You put your faith in a cruel world,
All my dead friends come to haunt, harm and hinder, never Letting go,
Here to drag me down to Hell,
Just say goodbye...

Just answer me,
What was the point of all that treachery,
And soon we'll see
The truth behind all of your blasphemy,

No never again
I'll never trust no one again,
I'd sooner slit my wrists and risk discovery of Hell,
Than stay another moment here where certain Devils dwell...


6. CLAIRE'S HORRORS (LIVE-ACOUSTIC/REMIX)

Spirits seem to drift up through a darkened sky
Drifting through dead branches in the night
While in the moonlight we
Go down upon our knees
Entwined together only we can see their beauty

Beneath the stars a bell begins to toll
For reasons which we really shouldn't know
So take a walk with me down to the cemetery
Wrap me in darkness, Claire make love to me

I am thunder
I am rain
I am pleasure
I am pain

Only in darkness can there be light
Tell me angel have you prayed tonight?

In the dark I know you all so well
Beauty from Heaven wrapped 'round souls from Hell
So take a drink from me
My sacrifice to thee
Damned fallen angels,
Always blessed with me.


7. ATMOSPHERE (LIVE)

Pale and Dark and Tortured Blue,
Behind a veil you find serenity.
I guess that's something we share,
Violently fading into nothing to find peace,
Or escape it.

Curious, majestic black strands cover you entirely,
Yet I may there.
Always being tested,
An eternal game that must leave your soul in shreds,
As it does mine.
You have my sympathy,

But forget about everything just for tonight
For this moment in life,
This moment in time
Could be your first,
Or your last.
You abandoned hope long ago,
You abandoned love,
Or it abandoned you,

But now is the time for beauty,
Violent beauty so pure it's scary,
The past is over,
This is something new,
Altogether alien, exotic, and welcome,
Erasing what came before,
With a blink of her amazing eyes...


8. A LETTER TO GOD (LIVE)

Is this life this degradation
This pointless game, humiliation
Born to die, we're born to lose
And not one choice we make we choose
And when this life is at an end
We find that Death's our only friend
Must we suffer through your games, oh Lord?
Can God really be so bored?

We waste our lives destroying, hating,
While beneath our flesh a skull lies waiting
Blind to beauty blind to love,
We fear of our loving Lord above
Some live their lives to play their games,
Some live as victims, the insane
Your experiment oh Lord has failed
And I trust that when we meet you will forgive us

It's futile so I'll end this note
And find a knife and slit my throat
And come to track you down oh Lord
You better watch your back,
Be sure that when we meet you'll be surprised
No loving praise, no glee filled cries
Just pain and hate and tear filled sighs
And the question in the end is "Why?"


9. SACRIFICE (LIVE)

...And here we go again
We've taken it to the end
With every waking moment
We face this silent torment

I'd sacrifice,
Sacrifice myself to you-
Right here tonight
Because you know that I love you-

Darkness is all I want to see
I could never put in to words
What it is you mean to me
The candle is burning low
At the window to my soul
The reaper is at my door now
He's come to take me home...

I'd sacrifice,
Sacrifice myself to you-
Right here tonight
Because you know that I love you


10. SALLY'S SONG

I sense there's something in the wind
That feels like tragedy's at hand,
And though I'd like to stand by you,
Can't shake this feeling that I know
The worst is just around the bend.

And does she notice
My feeling for her?
And can she see
How much she means to me?
I think it's not to be.

What will become of my dear friend?
Where will his actions lead us then?
Although I'd like to join the crowd
In their enthusiastic cloud,
Try as I may it doesn't last.

And will we ever
End up together?
No, I think not.
It's never to become
For I am not the one...


11. DEMON

Through darkened streets and blackened gloom
The candles dim in your bedroom
Rain reflecting shadows in the night

The moon is full and through the mist
I hear your voice I feel your kiss
The line grows thin between what's wrong and right.

Burning flesh, pale as the stars
No one knows just who you are
Drive the knife in deeper to my soul

Velvet touch your mouth on mine
Drunk on lust like drunk on wine
The world will end we'll hear the thunder roll.

Don't even say it
Don't even look away
Haunted by
Haunted by
Black winged angel come to me
Release my soul from this misery.

In the candle light you'll see
Just what all this means to me
The line grows thin between what's wrong and right.


12. UNTITLED

Twilight... the leaves fall,
The ground... is oh so cold.
Sing about God,
Sing on his death!
Sing about love
And sing about sex.
Your great mystery's a lie,
Hypocrisy's the rule. Sing on.
The. Death... of God!

Of darkness and light,
Of heaven and hell,
Of sinful delights.
Beneath our feet lie shattered wings,
Our screams bring the awakening of God...

So say goodbye to torture and lies,
And if there's a God pray he opens his eyes.
His angels aren't the master race,
We'll tell him when we're face to face with God.


13. SPIDER AND THE FLY (ACOUSTIC TANGLE WEB MIX)

Empty hearts I can hear them talking
I close my eyes and I keep on stalking
My love
My love

No one's aware of the hunger I feel
It's something you or time cannot heal
I need someone to help me rise above

Eternal bliss is something I can show you
Spread your arms and let my wings enfold you
My love

In the darkness shades of crimson rapture
The world is ours alone to capture
My love

Come over here and let me tell you something
Nothing ever comes of nothing
We pay a price for all our choices made

Come along now and take my hand
I'll lead you to a promised land
The morning after may never be the same,
It may never come again...
