Back to band list Home

To stop a picture, slide your mouse over it Down In A Hole
Man In The Box
What The Hell Have I?
Would

Down In A Hole

Bury me softly in this womb
I give this part of me for you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers in a tomb
In bloom

Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved
See my heart, I decorate it like a grave
You don't understand who they thought I was supposed to be
Look at me now, I'm a man who won't let himself be

Down in a hole, losing my sole
Down in a hole, losing control
I'd like to fly
But my wings have been so denied

Down in a hole and they've put all the stone in their place
I've eaten the sun so my tongue had been burned of the taste
I have been guilty of kicking myself in the teeth
I will speak no more of my feelings beneath

Man In The Box

I'm the man in the box
Buried in my shit
Won't you come & save me, save me

Feed my eyes, can you sew them shut?

Jesus Christ, deny your maker
He who tries, will be wasted
Feed my eyes now you've sewn them shut

I'm the dog who gets beat
Shove my nose in shit
Won't you come & save me

Feed my eyes, can you sew them shut?

Jesus Christ, deny your maker
He who tries, will be wasted
Feed my eyes now you've sewn them shut

Feed my eyes, can you sew them shut?

Jesus Christ, deny your maker
He who tries, will be wasted
Feed my eyes now you've sewn them shut

What The Hell Have I

The face before me flies
Laughs at me inside
Masks are made to hide the glow
Shining eyes
Distance 'tween us grows
Feeding lies

It's hard to start things over
You can feel the fire around us
All the time
Yeah

Something I should say
It takes you everyday
What you give is not alive
Today
Your soul served on a plate
Throw it away

It's hard to start things over
You can feel the fire around us
All the time
Yeah

It's hard to start things over
You can feel the fire around us
All the time
Yeah

All the time

What the hell have I?
Little pride

Would

Know me broken by my master
Teach thee on child of love hereafter

Into the flood again
Same old trip it was back then
So I made a big mistake
Try to see it once my way

Drifting body its sole desertion
Flying not yet quite the notion

Into the flood again
Same old trip it was back then
So I made a big mistake
Try to see it once my way

Am I wrong?
Have I run too far to get home
Have I gone?
And left you here alone

If I would, could you?
