Verse 1: Midnight in London 1666 A single flame was a start of it The medieval city, inside the city walls Many unnamed victims of a firestorm Pre-chorus: Then came the violence Then came the strife Moving fast like a lightning strike Was it retribution, for another sin Was it the solution for the plague within Chorus: Nowhere to go and no place to hide The skies are burning from every side Take what you can and flee from the flames Run for your life and start once again Verse 2: On the wind destruction, chaos and death Churches and factories, Westminster spared On the streets the riots, suspicion and fear The mayors indecision - hell on earth is here!

Verse 1: Way after midnight getting late She lays with me in darkness Can't fight the need to copulate No power on earth could stop us She strikes a match to light we're golden I kiss her neck and take a bite She claws my back to hold on Pre-chorus: While we're in this altered state She comes over never late She knows how to stimulate my action Chorus: Take me down, pull me in Shine the crown, tell me, I'm the king Take me down, pull me in Lie to me, and tell me I'm the king Verse 2: I push her shoulders to the sheets Throw back her dead in passion We always win, there's no defeat Can't kill a proud erection Until I hear that primal scream That tells me I have won her This is the time to plant the seed The harvesting is over Pre-chorus: While we're in this altered state She comes over never late She knows how to stimulate my action Chorus: Take me down, pull me in Shine the crown, tell me, I'm the king Take me down, pull me in Lie to me, and tell me I'm the king Bridge: We seal the deal, a perfect bond No pulling back it's game on Pre-chorus: While we're in this altered state She comes over never late She knows how to stimulate my action Chorus: Take me down, pull me in Shine the crown, tell me, I'm the king Take me down, pull me in Lie to me, and tell me I'm the king Take me down, pull me in Take me down, pull me in Shine the crown, tell me, I'm the king Take me down, pull me in Lie to me, and tell me I'm the king Take me down, pull me in Pull me in

Verse 1: I'm swinging down from 6/8 To a measure more relaxing With a rhythm that beats time with my heart It's a little less disturbing, when the music flows like water It keeps my mind from trying too hard Chorus: Can you tell me something That I may be missing In this music is there something I'm not getting? Verse 2: When a song becomes too heavy Sometimes I just can't lift it I leave them there to die on the floor I just can't stand to hear them With their devil, hell and demons Don't they ever have some new place to go? Chorus: Can you tell me something That I may be missing In this music is there something I'm not getting? Can you tell me something That I may be missing In this music is there something I'm not getting? Can you tell me something That I may be missing In this music is there something I'm not getting?

Verse 1: In the east of London fly the Union Jacks Ready for one more royal event A gift from the great working class Born the heart of the city, when heard the bow bells Their taxes pay for this stupid parade, a circus carnival Chorus: Look at the paper flags waving To celebrate what? The royal wave gives the finger To the poor and the lost Why don't they bring out the ballots When the queen takes a crap Can't they see it's a royal event Like the birth of one more royal brat Verse 2; Time for a small revolution Vacate the Buckingham zoo Let them run free in this big scary world And get to eat some cake too Chorus: Look at the paper flags waving To celebrate what? The royal wave gives the finger To the poor and the lost Bridge: The crown will son lose its luster When realized diamonds are nothing but rocks Chorus: Look at the paper flags waving To celebrate what? The royal wave gives the finger To the poor and the lost Look at the paper flags waving To celebrate what? The royal wave gives the finger Are you getting the plot?

Intro: I think I'm broken, I need a quick fix Verse 1: Do I remember me?...I think I do I do believe my name's the same Lost my soul and my identity Don't know just where my body's been Pre-chorus: Walking out in the moonlight In some uncharted town Something much stronger than me... Took me some place I should not have gone Chorus: I think I'm broken, I need a quick fix The wound is open, one drink can close it Verse 2: It's 3am I'm tired and stumbling The sidewalk wet from morning rain I look like something that the cat dragged in Hoping I don't fall down again Pre-chorus: Every stone closed and shuttered Nowhere to get me a drink Every step taken, I'm fearful and broken I stand on the brink Chorus: I think I'm broken, I need a quick fix The wound is open, one drink can close it Pre-chorus: Walking out in the moonlight In some uncharted town Something much stronger than me... Took me some place I should not have gone Chorus: I think I'm broken, I need a quick fix The wound is open, one drink can close it

Have you met grandmother, covered in tattoos Addicted to graffiti since she's 22 Once they were fire-fierce pictures Dragons colored bright Now the colors faded, just blue guiding lines Pre-chorus: Once homesick sailors so young Out for the night having fun To show their buddies they're so strong Tattooed with a heart that says "MOM" Chorus: The body beautiful So show your mark The body beautiful Just show your mark Verse 2: An' her skin looks dirty, from the needles' ink Every outline moves under old wrinkled skin It was quite a fashion back in her younger days Now it's gone full circle, young kids go the same way Do you ever get the strange need? The needle, the ink makes you bleed The picture is permanently fixed Does a lifetime of doubt follow it Chorus: The body beautiful So show your mark The body beautiful Just show your mark Pre-chorus: Once homesick sailors so young Out for the night having fun To show their buddies they're so strong Tattooed with a heart that says "MOM" Chorus: The body beautiful So show your mark The body beautiful Just show your mark Make me bleed The body beautiful So show your mark (Make me bleed) The body beautiful Just show your mark

Verse 1: The 22nd of December We were dressing up the tree The radio was playing caroling The music warm and comforting Then there came a knock upon a door Outside there stood a man in uniform He asked me "Son are you parents in?" A friend of your has had an accident Verse 2: He said I'll speak to your mother and father There are some things you shouldn't hear I left the room where they could speak to him Why I should leave I wasn't sure Through the walls I heard my mother cry "Oh my God, he's just a little boy" Someone found him high up in a tree Hanging by his neck for all to see Chorus: On no, no, no, don't leave us crying On no, no, no, don't leave us crying Verse 3: We were closest of young friends Our thoughts and hopes, we shared together He dreamed he'd race a thoroughbred T ride that horse and be a winner It couldn't be, his body was too weak The sickness that he had could take him down He took his life before he died in pain Chorus: On no, no, no, don't leave us crying On no, no, no, don't leave us crying On no, no, no, don't leave us crying On no, no, no, you left us crying....

I will never remember the first day we met I woke up so early and took my first breath The frost on the window pane, fractured the light You were so happy to meet us, we two in on life The time that you gave me, beyond words on a line We walked out in harmony, not a step out of time I grew like the strongest oak, then the whole forest fell The days became so distant, you didn't know me so well I've heard this song before, did I creare these lines? The story's been told, so many ways, so many times... Is this yours, is it mine? Back in the penniless pathway we were incredibly rich You guarded us so closely from any bitterness kick You din't tell me one day you'd go, like a lion I cried I am alone in the open, just a shell from the tide That little town of ours was all the universe You held me had and guided me through So I'd never be, the little boy lost There's a space in a green field where a tree will be set It's for the ones who love you to show where you rest As every branch reaches for the sun, we will hold you again For you are my brother, my brother... my friend
