  1. FUEL

  2. Gimme fuel, Gimme fire, Gimme that which I desire
    Oh, Yeah!

    Turn on, I see red
    Adrenaline crash and crack my head
    Nitro junkie, paint me dead
    And I see red

    I run across through black and white
    War horse
    War head
    Fuck 'em, man
    White knuckle tight
    Through black and white

    Oh
    When I burn
    Fuel is pumping engines
    Burning hard
    Loose and clean
    Oh
    And then I burn
    Turning my direction
    Quench my thirst with gasoline
    So gimme fuel, Gimme fire, Gimme that which I desire

    Turn on beyond the bone
    Swallow future, spit out hope
    Burn your face upon the chrome

    Take the corner, going to crash
    Headlights
    Headlines
    Another junkie, who lives too fast

    Yeah
    Lives way too fast, fast, fast, fast, fast, fast

    White knuckle tight

    Gimme fuel
    Gimme fire
    My desire

    On I burn


  3. THE MEMORY REMAINS

  4. Fortune, fame
    Mirror vain
    Gone insane
    But the memory remains

    Heavy rings on fingers wave
    Another star denies the grave
    See the nowhere crowd cry the nowhere tears of honor

    Like twisted vines that grow
    Hide and swallow mansions whole
    And dim the light of an already faded prima donna

    Fortune, fame
    Mirror vain
    Gone insane
    Fortune, fame
    Mirror vain
    Gone insane
    But the memory remains

    Heavy rings hold cigarettes
    Up to lips that time forgets
    While the Hollywood sun sets behind your back

    And can't the band play on
    Just listen, they play my song
    Ash to ash
    Dust to dust
    Fade to black

    Fortune, fame
    Mirror vain
    Gone insane
    Fortune, fame
    Mirror vain
    Gone insane
    Dance little tin goddess

    Drift away
    Fade away
    Little tin goddess

    Ash to ash
    Dust to dust
    Fade to black

    Ash to ash
    Dust to dust
    Fade to black
    The memories remain
    Yeah
    To this faded prima donna
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

    Dance little tin goddess dance

    (Say yes - at least say hello)
    (Say yes - at least say hello)


  5. DEVIL'S DANCE

  6. Yeah
    I feel you too
    Feel
    Those things you do
    In your eyes I see a fire that burns
    To free the you
    That's running through
    Deep inside you know
    Seeds I plant will grow

    One day you will see
    And dare to come down to me
    Yeah, come on, come on now take the chance
    That's right
    Let's dance

    Snake
    I am the snake
    Tempting
    That bite you take
    Let me make your mind
    Leave yourself behind
    Be not afraid
    I've got what you need
    Hunger I will feed

    One day you will see
    And dare to come down to me
    Yeah, come on, come on now take the chance
    Haha
    Come dance

    Yeah, come dancing

    One day you will see
    And dare to come down to me
    Yeah, come on, come on now take the chance

    Mm, it's nice to see you here
    Haha


  7. THE UNFORGIVEN II

  8. Lay beside me
    Tell me what they've done
    Speak the words I wanna hear
    To make my demons run
    The door is locked now
    But it's open if you're true
    If you can understand the me
    Then I can understand the you

    Lay beside me
    Under wicked sky
    The black of day
    Dark of night
    We share this paralyze
    The door cracks open
    But there's no sun shining through
    Black heart scarring darker still
    But there's no sun shining through
    No, there's no sun shining through
    No, there's no sun shining

    What I've felt
    What I've known
    Turn the pages
    Turn the stone
    Behind the door
    Should I open it for you?
    Yeah
    What I've felt
    What I've known
    Sick and tired
    I stand alone
    Could you be there
    'Cause I'm the one who waits for you
    Or are you unforgiven too?

    Come lay beside me
    This won't hurt, I swear
    She loves me not
    She loves me still
    But she'll never love again
    She lay beside me
    But she'll be there when I'm gone
    Black heart scarring darker still
    Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
    Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
    Dead sure she'll be there

    Lay beside me
    Tell me what I've done
    The door is closed, so are your eyes
    But now I see the sun
    Now I see the sun
    Yes, now I see it

    What I've felt
    What I've known
    Turn the pages
    Turn the stone
    Behind the door
    Should I open it for you?
    Yeah
    What I've felt
    What I've known
    So sick and tired
    I stand alone
    Could you be there
    'Cause I'm the one who waits
    The one who waits for you

    Oh
    What I've felt
    What I've known
    Turn the pages
    Turn the stone
    Behind the door
    Should I open it for you?
    So I dub thee unforgiven
    Oh, what I've felt
    Oh, what I've known
    I take this key
    And I bury it in you
    Because you're unforgiven too

    Never free
    Never me
    'Cause you're unforgiven too


  9. BETTER THAN YOU

  10. I look at you, then you me
    Hungry and thirsty I wait
    Holding the lion's share
    Holding the key
    Holding me back 'cause I'm striving to be

    Better than you (better than you)
    Better than you (better than you)

    Lock homes I push, and I strive
    Somehow I feel more alive
    Bury the deep forest
    Bury the sea
    Bury me deep when there's no will to be

    Better than you (better than you)
    Oh Better than you (better than you)

    Oh, can't stop this train from rolling
    Oh, yo, nothing brings me down
    No, can't stop this train from rolling on and on, on
    No, no, forever on and on

    Oh, can't stop this train from rolling
    Oh, yo, you can't take it down
    No, never stop this locomotion on and on and on
    No, no, you can't bring me down 'cause I'm

    Better than you (better than you)
    Better than you (better than you)
    Oh better than you (better than you)
    Better than you (better than you)
    Much better than you

    Better than you (better than you)
    Oh better than you (better than you)
    Better than you (better than you)
    Better than
    Better than
    Better than
    Better than you
    Yeah

  19. PRINCE CHARMING

  20. There's a black cloud overhead
    That's me
    And the poison ivy chokes the tree
    Again it's me
    I'm the filthy one on Bourbon Street
    You walk on by
    I'm the little boy that pushes hard
    And makes it cry

    There's a dirty needle in your child
    Haha, stick me
    Empty bottles still in hand, still dead
    Still me
    I'm the suit and tie that breaks the street
    And still wants more
    I'm the 45 that's in your mouth
    I'm a dirty, dirty whore

    Yeah
    Look it's me
    The one who can't be free
    Much too young to focus
    But too old to see
    Hey, Look it's me
    When no one wants to see
    See what you brought this world
    Just what you wanna see
    Hey ma
    Hey ma, look it's me

    Yeah
    He wants to become father now
    Me again, me
    The marks inside your arms still leaves me alone to me
    I'm the nothing face that plants a bomb
    And strolls away
    I'm the one who doesn't look quite right
    As children play

    Look up to me
    What you've been and what you've feared
    Look up to me
    Look it's me, what you hear
    See right through me
    See the one who can't be free
    See right through me
    Look it's me when no one wants to see

    Hey, hey, hey

    Yeah
    It's me

    Hey ma

  21. LOW MAN'S LYRICS

  22. My eyes seek reality
    My fingers seek my veins
    There's a dog at your back step
    He must come in from the rain
    I fall 'cause I let go
    The net below has rot away
    So my eyes seek reality
    And my fingers seek my veins

    The trash fire is warm
    But nowhere safe from the storm
    And I can't bear to see
    What I've let me be
    So wicked and worn

    So as I write to you
    Of what is done and to do
    Maybe you'll understand
    And won't cry for this man
    'Cause low man is due

    Please forgive me

    My eyes seek reality
    My fingers feel for faith
    Touch clean with a dirty hand
    I touched the clean to the waste

    Please forgive me
    Please forgive me
    Please forgive me

    So low the sky is all I see
    All I want from you is forgive me
    So you bring this poor dog in from the rain
    Though he just wants right back out again

    And I cry to the alleyway
    Confess all to the rain
    But I lie, lie straight to the mirror
    The one I've broken to match my face

    My eyes seek reality
    My fingers seek my veins


  23. ATTITUDE

  24. Suppose I say
    I'm never satisfied
    Suppose I say
    You cut some root
    To make the tree survive

    Just let me kill you for a while
    Just let me kill you for a smile
    Just let me kill you once
    I'm oh so bored to death

    Oh, I hunger
    I hunger
    I eat

    Born into attitude
    Asleep at the wheel
    Throw all your bullets in the fire
    And run like hell
    Why cure the fever?
    What ever happened to sweat?

    Suppose I say
    The vultures smile at me
    Suppose I say
    I set them down
    They plan to pick you clean

    And satisfaction this way comes
    And satisfaction this way comes
    And satisfaction's here and gone
    Gone, yeah, and gone again

    Oh, I hunger
    Oh, I hunger
    I eat

    Born into attitude
    Asleep at the wheel
    Throw all your bullets in the fire
    And stand there

    Born into attitude
    Twist mother tongue
    Throw all your bullets in the fire
    And run like hell
    Why cure the fever?
    What ever happened to sweat?

    Yeah, I hunger
    Oh, I hunger
    I eat


  25. FIXXXER

  26. Yeah
    Dolls of voodoo all stuck with pins
    One for each of us and our sins
    So you lay us in a line
    Push your pins, they make us humble
    Only you can tell in time
    If we fall or merely stumble

    But tell me
    Can you heal what father's done
    Or fix this hole in a mother's son
    Can you heal the broken worlds within
    Can you strip away so we may start again
    Tell me, can you heal what father's done
    Or cut this rope and let us run
    Just when all seems fine and I'm pain free
    You jab another pin
    Jab another pin in me

    Yeah
    Mirror, mirror upon the wall
    Break the spell or become the doll
    See you sharpening the pins
    So the holes will remind us
    We're just the toys in the hands of another
    And in time the needles turn from shine to rust

    Blood for face
    Sweat for dirt
    Three X's for the stone
    To break this curse
    A ritual's due
    I believe I'm not alone
    Shell of shotgun
    Pint of gin
    Numb us up to shield the pins
    Renew our faith
    Which way we can
    To fall in love with life again
    To fall in love with life again
    To fall in love with life again
    To fall in love
    To fall in love
    To fall in love with life again

    No more pins in me, yeah
    No more, no more pins in me
    No more, no more pins in me
    No more, no more, no more
    No, no, no
