The House That Jack Built

*Opens door so I walk inside Close my eyes Find my place to hide And I shake as I take it in Let the show begin

Open my eyes Just to have them close again Well on my way But on my way where I've been

It swallows me As it takes me in it's fog I twist away As I give this world the nod

*Repeat

Open my eyes Just to have them close once again Don't want control As it takes me down and down and down again

Is that the moon Or just the light that lights this dead end street? Is that you there? Or just another demon that I meet?

**The higher you are The farther you fall The longer the walk The farther you crawl My body, my temple This temple it tilts Step into the house that Jack built

**Repeat

Open door so I walk inside Swallow me so the pain subsides And I shake as I take the sin Let the show begin

*Repeat x 2

Open my eyes It swallows me Is that you there? I twist away Away Away Away

Until It Sleeps

Where do I take this pain of mine I run, but it stays right my side

So tear me open, pour me out There's things inside that scream and shout And the pain still hates me So hold me, until it sleeps

Just like the curse, just like the stray You feed it once, and now it stays

So tear me open, but beware There's things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me, until I'm clean

*It grips you, so hold me It stains you, so hold me It hates you, so hold me It holds you, so hold me

Until it sleeps**

So tell me why you've chosen me Don't want your grip, don't want your greed

I'll tear me open, make you gone No more can you hurt anyone And the fear still shakes me So hold me, until it sleeps

*--** Repeat

I don't want it

So tear me open, but beware The things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me, 'till I'm clean...

I'll tear me open, make you gone No longer will you hurt anyone And the fear still shapes me So hold me, until it sleeps...

Until it sleeps...

King Nothing

Wish I may Wish I might Have this wish tonight Are you satisfied?

Dig for gold Dig for fame You dig to make your name Are you pacified?

All the wants you waste All the things you've chased

*And it all crashes down And you break your crown And you point your finger But there's no one around

**Just want one thing Just to play the king But the castle crumbled And you've left with just a name

Where's your crown? King nothing***

Hard and cold Bought and sold A heart hard as gold Are you satisfied

Wish I may Wish I might You wish your life away Are you pacified

All the wants you waste All the things you've chased

*--*** Repeat

I wish I may I wish I might Have this wish I wish tonight

I want the star I want it now I want it all and I don't care how

Careful what you wish Careful what you say Careful what you wish You may regret it

Careful what you wish You just might get it

Then it all crashes down And you break your crown And you point your finger But there's no one around

*--*** Repeat

Hero Of The Day

Mama they try and break me

The window burns to light the way back home A light that warms no matter where they've gone

They're off to find the hero of the day But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way

Still the window burns Time so slowly turns And someone there is sighing Keepers of the flames Do ya feel your name? Can't you hear your babies crying?

Mama they try and break me Still they try and break me

'Scuze me while I tend to how I feel These things return to me that still seem real

Now deservingly this easy chair But the rocking stopped by wheels of despair

Don't want your aid But the first I've make For years can't hold or feel No, I'm not all me So please excuse me While I tend to how I feel

*But now the dreams and waking screams That ever last the night So build the wall, behind the crawl And hide until it's light So can you hear your babies cryin' now?

Still the window burns Time so slowly turns And someone there is sighing Keepers of the flames Do ya feel your name? Can't you hear your babies crying?

* Repeat

Mama they try and break me

Poor Twisted Me

Oh poor twisted me Oh poor twisted me I feast on sympathy I chew on suffer, I chew on agony Swallow whole the pain Oh it's too good to be That all this misery Is just for oh poor twisted me

Poor mistreated me Poor mistreated me I drown without a sea Lung fills with sorrow, lungs fill with misery Inhaling the deep dark blue Oh woe is me Such a burden to be The poor mistreated me

To finally reach the shore Survive the storm Now you're bare and cold The sea was warm So warm, you bathe your soul again

Good to feel my friend Oh woe is me Such a burden to be Oh poor twisted me

Wasting My Hate

Think you're worthy now Think enough to even raise the brow And to laugh and tip that two pronged crown

I see my hands, I see my feet I feel that blood that pumps in beat But where the hell's my mind goin' now?

* Repeat

Ain't gonna waste My hate But I'm so greedy when they say (It's) better to give than to receive

Mama Said

Mama she has taught me well Told me when I was young Son, your life's an open book Don't close it fore it's done The brightest flame burns quickest Is what I heard they say A son's heart's owned to mother But I must find my way

*Let my heart go Let your son grow Mama let your heart go Or let this heart be still

Rebel my new last name Wild blood in my veins Apron strings around my neck The mark that still remains Left home at an early age Of what I heard was wrong I never asked forgiveness But what I said is done

* Repeat

**Never I ask you But never I gave But you gave me your emptiness I now take to my grave Never I ask of you But never I gave But you gave me your emptiness I now take to my grave So let this heart be still

Mama now I'm coming home I'm not all you wished of me But a mother's love for her son Unspoken, Help me be I took your love for granted And all the things you said to me I need your arms to welcome me But a cold stone's all I see

* Repeat

Let my heart go Mama let me heart go You never let me heart go So let this heart be still

** Repeat

Thorn Within

Forgive me father For I have sinned Find me guilty of the life I feel within And when I'm branded This mark of shame Should I look down disgraced Or straight ahead And know that you must blame

*I am the secret I am the sin I am the guilty And I, I am the thorn within

Forgive me father For I have sinned Find me guilty when true guilt is from within So point your fingers Point right at me For I am shadows and will follow me One and the same are we

* Repeat

I do your time I take your fall I'm branded guilty For us all

So point your fingers Point right at me For I am shadows and will follow you One and the same are we

* Repeat

Ronnie

Story starts, quiet town Small town boy, big time frown Never talks, never plays Different path, lost his way

Then streets of red, red I'm afraid No confetti, no parade Nothing happens in this boring place But oh my god, how that all did change Now they all pray Blood stains wash away

*He said "lost my way" This bloody day Lost my way I heard him, he said "lost my way" This bloody day Lost my way All things wash away But blood stained the sun red today

I always said, somethin' wrong With little strange Ronnie Long Never laughed, never smile Talked alone, miles and miles

Gallow calls, son I say Keep your smile, and laugh all day Think once again, in this boring place For little boys, how the soon change

Now they all pray Blood stains wash away

* Repeat

Yeah, well all the green things die When Ronnie go to the place He said, "Don't you dare ask why I'm cursed to wear this name"

Now we all know why children called him Ronnie Frown When he pulled that gun from his pocket They'd all fall down

*Repeat

The Outlaw Torn

And now I wait my whole lifetime For You And now I wait my whole lifetime For You

I ride the dirt, I ride the tide For you I search the outside, search inside For you

To take back what you left me I know I'll always burn to be The one who seeks so I may find And now I wait my whole lifetime

Outlaw of torn And I'm torn

So on I wait my whole lifetime For You So on I wait my whole lifetime For You

The more I search, the more my need For you The more I bless, the more I bleed For you

You make me smash the clock and feel I'd rather die behind the wheel Time was never on my side So on I wait my whole lifetime

Outlaw of torn And I'm torn

*Hear me And if close my mind in fear Please pry it open See me And if my face becomes sincere Beware Hold me And when I start to come undone Stitch me together Save me And when you see me strut remind me of what left this outlaw torn
