Sixth Day

Come see the king up on his cage
Come see him feed, come see him rage
They throw in live feast to excite the crowd
After the chase they applause so loud
“Taste, feel the wrath of the king
See, hear what’s happening”
One day drunken men threw a small hound in his pen
and people gathered around to see the hunt again
All their minds were filled with awe
and they wiped their eyes and couldn’t believe what they saw
“How he’s sharing his food
That’s a miracle”
CHORUS:
Any day now something wonderful could happen to you
Don’t hesitate; receive it with your soul full of gratitude
You are not alone hey you are not alone
You are not alone hey you are not alone
She grew older and got weaker day by day
Then came a winter and took her away
Nor man, nor beast could not him attend
Between his giant claws slept his little friend
He didn’t mourn, he didn’t cry
He would not even eat a bite
He didn’t sleep, he didn’t fight
Could not let her out of his sight
Five days, five nights in a dust he lied
on the sixth day the lion died
CHORUS:

Faces

Hell, the solitude was only thing I had
Damn, now his laughter will drive me mad
I am not the spirit of vengeance
I am not the king of hate
I got two minds, but only one conscience
I must build a wall without the gate
CHORUS:
As long as I remember who I am
It’s carved in stone, written with blood
The angry child still hides inside the man
I am the prison made of flesh and bones
The man who has two faces
Hey, one day he will take away my name
With the way he use my anger and my shame
Every moment he tries to change me
How he try to take the control
I got eyes, but I cannot see
with this twisted brain, with this divided soul
CHORUS:
Soon I can’t remember who I am
It’s carved in stone, written with blood
The angry child now controls the man
I am the prison made of flesh and bones
The man who has two faces
I am tied to him with my flesh and bone
and only together we can die
I can make this last decision on my own
Soon there won’t be the man who has two…
…faces

The Fall

If they hate you for the man you were before
The man you were before
Be more
If they say there’s no place where you belong
No place where you belong
They’re wrong
But hey man never miss you chance to blow
Don’t miss you chance to blow
Some may fall and some may die
together we can learn to fly
CHORUS:
Do you think you can hold me now
before the crowd, in front of them all?
Do you think we can face them now?
Confident, unafraid, our love will survive the fall
If you feel the sting it’s just you’re goddamn pride
Just your goddamn pride
Fuck pride
‘Cause you know that some day they will attack
Some day they will attack
Fight back
But hey man never learn how to pretend
Don’t learn how to pretend
Cause when we fall we will not die
Together we can touch the sky
CHORUS:

Our Modern Family
06:50

I am the river of cold semen
He couldn’t even grant my wish
So goddamn many years of waiting
Have turned our dream to a piss
It’s so hard to keep on breathing
when I try to hide my bliss
But every time I think of leaving
I wipe his tears with a kiss
What a mess
I must confess
I feel so blessed
To forgive is a way to live along
CHORUS:
Oh, maybe you were never planned
Just accident of birth; our modern family
It’s time to say it all; it’s time to make amends
we can learn to be your parents
When they say you look just like me
I know he got no strength to fight
‘Cause finally I start to see
Two wrongs can make one right
One day when you have grown older
and you could see thru all our lies
I hope I still can be your father
Our salvation lies in your eyes
The way you came
Have no shame
Have no shame
CHORUS:
Oh, maybe you were never planned
Just accident of birth; our modern family
It’s time to say it all; it’s time to make amends
we can learn to be your parents
Its up’s and downs they say x4
That’s true
Take away my pain x4
Please do
Its up’s and downs they say x4
Say it’s all okay x4
CHORUS:
Oh, maybe you were never planned
Just accident of birth; our modern family
It’s time to say it all; it’s time to make amends
we will always be your parents
