One of a kind they say They've never seen before Investigate the aberration Disorder in the core I never tried to hide away Or tried to keep your pace You walked me to the slaughter With a smile upon your face (Oh...)From the cradle to the madhouse A twisted mind There's no way out of this hell For twisted mind There's no way out There's no way out You come to see the healer So don't you be afraid They call me tranquilizer I'm here to isolate We paint in black and white and you're The dirty in between Monstrosity of nature A virulent disease (Oh...) From the cradle to the madhouse A twisted mind There's no way out of this hell For twisted mind There's no way out There's no way out Can't you see - can't you see That you are not like anyone You never see Through anyone else's eyes Who am I to certify The sanity of twisted mind The victim of perception A twisted mind Misprizing - Chastising Subhuman fragmentizing Sensation - Aberration Repulsive - Tantalizing Misprizing - Chastising Subhuman fragmentizing Sensation - Aberration Repulsive - Tantalizing From the cradle to the madhouse A twisted mind There's no way out of this hell For twisted mind There's no way out There's no way out From the cradle to the madhouse A twisted mind There's no way out of this hell For twisted mind There's no way out There's no way out There's no way out There's no way out There's no way out There's no way out

I'm just a loser in the game of love I'm just an stray boy in the shade And how I wish to know what love is like To find someone to contemplate There's a voice and a million answers To the questions I don't ask A demon I've got to contain When I'm walking through the fen Getting Deep into the black Whispers I can't restrain - Don't give in Rise to fame - time will come Make your claim - time has come For the crow to fly away So you're an angel meant to walk down here And you believe it's all divine And you don't play by all those temporal rules You watch the world begin to die, alright When the lamb's been torn to pieces I've been crashing from the sky Fallen to care for the prey They put a spoke right in your wheel I'm the one to dare the weak To push you all over the pain - you give in, oh Rise to fame - time will come Make your claim - time has come For the crow to fly away I close my eyes and I see what's coming my way, oh yeah He's got treasure in his eyes that he's gonna turn to clay Hmm oh, I'm a stranger I'm a changer, and I'm danger - maybe Fallen angel waiting for the prey The devil has come to take a maimed away Penetration of the twisted mind The evil is out for the weak and blind I can feel it in your voice Ever so sweet - No Do I really have a choice? No, no, no! Oh, you burn your feet on unholy ground You roam the barren wicked plains abound In evil eyes and evil speak Abound in all you evil freaks When you say it's all divine And meant to be, yeah - Woah What about your flesh and blood And defiers like me, oh Their evil eyes are looking down on you And those who don't are losing sight of you Face the rage to chase away The specter of disgrace and shame Withered roses dying on the ledge A withered dreamer standing on the edge You dream of love, wake up to pain You're better off to join in my game Then she'll be better off to cry contrite tears One day she'll wonder why she had to let you disappear Oh dear Rise to fame - Your time has come Time will come - To take the sun Make your claim - You're drawn to the sound Time has come - You're leaving ground Rise to fame - The flight of the crow Time will come - Cross the line Time has come - For the crow to fly away It's a flight to hell Can you hear the bell The devil has come To take your soul away A flight to hell - alright I'm a stranger I'm a changer And I'm a danger Fallen angel waiting for the prey

Like a wheel I keep on turning Straight ahead, it's got me burning The melody - the dignity Something is speaking to me Night is cold and my soul is battered Not afraid for the first time now that I realize We coincide, I'll never belong to the tribe And a song is calling me to this ship of fools Been dying for a sign when faith is beyond the line When you find your love on wasted grounds You're taking to the sound It's shelter from the rain No return from the way I've chosen Cast away - chasing rainbows condemn the lie How could I make God believe I am blind? We create by intuition Call it fate - the tongue of angels in our soul Feel it resound and carry you over the grind All that's left is a song giving shelter from the rain Been dying for a sign, when faith is beyond the line When you find your love on wasted grounds I'm taking to the sound It's shelter from the rain It's a dark and stormy night Ain't it funny what it takes To read the signs? But I am always there I am the footprints to your right Man overlooks when running high... Young and blind In your darkest lonely nights Heed a voice to take you higher Take you higher As you stumble through the ruins Let the spirit take you higher And a song Oh, and a song I can hear a song Oh, and the soul I can hear a song Been dying for a sign when faith is beyond the line When you find your love on wasted grounds I'm taking to the sound It's shelter from the rain Been dying for a sign when faith is beyond the line When you find your love on wasted grounds I'm taking to the sound It's shelter from the rain

A dream of dwelling inside, alone we come and alone we go. And who am I to know what I feel? Sympathy that's tearing me apart? Attraction of the distance to heart of affinity? What if love will leave your heart an open sore And I can't reveal what even I don't know? The love you feel you waste away on me. What kind of love would let us bleed away? No kind of love would make us bleed away. If only you could be the one to take a look inside. I feel so incomplete A broken man in need of mother love I'm suffering in silence and no one wants to see And only god is watching as I bleed A star above - my matching piece What if love will leave your heart an open sore And I can't reveal what even I don't know? The love you feel you waste away on me What kind of love would let us bleed away? No kind of love would make us bleed away Feel - that's all you gotta do And it will heal you Feel the pain to lead you home to peace of mind Dwell inside Feel - that's all you gotta do And it will heal the wound Feel the pain be a song for peace of mind Dwell inside
Don't you be afraid Come and step inside and take a look around I'm your holy grail in your candy store To save you from the profound They use to dream in only black and white Can't you hear them scream drowning in the tide? Out in the cold I see water frozen in their eyes What a sorry sight I am willing to believe they would pay for a smile I'm the master of toys and all you girls and boys are welcome to my wonderland I'm the angel of joy and I'm here to paint the void Welcome to my world to my dream factory Say hello to the gentleman with the paint The deeper you're in the blue the sweeter the sound of your plaint If only I had a heart it would brake - Oh, sure And I wonder how much more they can take Out in the cold I see water frozen in their eyes What a sorry sight I am willing to believe they would pay for a smile I'm the master of toys and all you girls and boys are welcome to my wonderland I'm the angel of joy and I'm here to paint the void Welcome to my world I'm dealing in pain and little Novocaine Welcome to my world, to my toy factory, ha-ha No more struggle of the classes No more struggle of the masses On their knees - conformity They are ready for a hero They are flying at zero It's their turn to crash and burn No more struggle of the classes No more struggle of the masses On their knees - conformity They are ready for a hero They are flying at zero It's their turn to crash and burn Master of yer toys All you girls and boys are welcome to my wonderland The angel of yer joy And I'm here to paint the void Welcome to my world I've come to bring your pain And a little Novocaine Welcome to my world

I dropped off in the shadows the lead of tragedy I open my eyes - blind by the spotlight And what do I see? Pushed by ambition you've been granted admission to the hall of acclaim She denied you affection Now listen the whole world is screaming your name I will forget her, but I won't forgive The curtain has fallen Behold the messiah Riding high The devil on the crest For all the world to see - forevermore I am I - the devil in the belfry I'll be glorified - forevermore Is it a sin to learn to be able to live without love? And is it a sin to put love under will and control from above? Devil in my fingers - pleasure at my feet Mind out of sight The shadow I'll cast shall darken her world And ghost her at night With each song you'll die a little for me It won't leave a scar Cause I've drawn the curtain Riding high The devil on the crest For all the world to see - forevermore I am I - the devil in the belfry I'll be glorified - forevermore Into the opera like moths to a flame Spellbind their senses to follow the hero Riding high The devil on the crest For all the world to see - forevermore I am I - the devil in the belfry I'll be glorified - forevermore

A heart out of affection, a night at the masquerade You won some and you're lonesome As the spotlight fades Going forth pretending destination is at hand When she's crying just a little just for me I've seen them set off to the promised land Escaping from the hurtings They don't understand a sense of satisfaction On account of pristine tears She's crying just a little more just like you Why don't you cry, cry a little over me? Why don't you lie? Can't you tell me that I am hard to deny? Can't she see what I am going through? Cry just a little for me Oh girl, a little for me Afraid to give away what you keep inside There's a ghost in your mirror Every lonesome night And those nights are getting colder And your heart is a frozen wound Don't you wonder who'll be there when you awake? Why don't you cry, cry a little over me? Why don't you lie? Can't you tell me that I am hard to deny? Can't she see what I am going through? Cry just a little for me Oh girl, a little for me Why don't you cry, cry a little over me? Why don't you lie? Can't you tell me that I am, hard to deny? Can't she see what I am going through? Cry just a little for me Oh cry, a little for me

No one around to hear your cries No one there to even realize you grit your teeth What are you afraid to lose when you're left alone? I'm the one to make you anything you wanna be Never broke the silence Never broke the ice No more waiting I gotta wipe her off my mind Loving her is dying Loving her is pain Babylon I'm coming Ready for the fray I don't believe in your love Tread on this bed of roses I don't believe in your love Don't give a fuck for roses Don't give a damn for roses - no, no, no You've been standing on the edge Lost between agony and ecstasy Take your share boy straightaway It's all heaven-sent She won't care: They call their love divine, but it's all evil Loving you was bleeding So I had to break away Darkness stretching out its hand To save me from your sway Cause loving you was wasting Loving you was pain Now angel of temptation Open up the gate I don't believe in your love Tread on this bed of roses I don't believe in your love Don't give a fuck for roses Loving you was bleeding So I had to break away Darkness stretching out its hand To save me from your sway Cause loving you was wasting Loving you was pain Now angel of temptation Open up the gate Cause loving you was wasting I don't believe in your love Tread on this bed of roses I don't believe in your love Don't give a fuck for roses I don’t believe in your love (I don’t believe in your love) Tread on this bed of roses (This bed of roses) I don’t believe in your love (I don’t believe in your love) Don’t give a fuck for roses
