Gypsy Rhyme
01:20
|
|||
Voice 1:
Do you see when you dream, when you dream of me?
Do you see when you dream, when you dream of me?
Am I dreaming of you?
Are you dreaming of me?
In the eyes of a blue haired dog.
Voice 2:
I am the dreamer
I am the light
I'll take these wings and learn to fly.
Voice 3:
When you dream do you dream of a gypsy king?
And the dance of the elves in a faerie ring?
Our reality is just what we make of it;
Don't you want to discover it?
Is a dream as real as the waking life
and the people never seem to see you twice
The world of dis-reality lacks superficiality
Is this dream but a dream when I dream of you
Do you dream of me? Or are you
just a dream too?
Just a dream too..
Is this dream but a dream when I dream of you
Do you dream of me?
Or are you just a dream too?
Voice 4:
Speak in a gypsy rhyme..

Minor Demon
04:02
|
|||
There was a little girl and she had a little curl
Right in the middle of her forehead
When she was good she was very very good
When she was bad she was horrid
When I was a little girl,
I hit my head and split it open
Doctor sewed it up but I was never quite the same
I'm your modern minor demon
Angel wings and eyes a-scheming
Listen to me when I'm speaking
This is how we shake the ceiling
It's time for the world to hear the voices in me
They're ready for the one who's got a soul to sell me
I'm just an angel with a taste for rock and
Roll you want a show I'll get the seats a-hopping
Time for the world to hear the voices in me
Time for the world to hear a demon singing
Time for the world to hear my sound
Time for the world to hear my noise
Time for the world to hear my song
Time for the world to hear my voice
(voice voice voice...)
Time for the world to hear the voices in me
Time for the world to hear my
Turn up the volume baby.
I am a- I am a demon
I'm a demon, you're a human
Nice to meetcha how you doing?
I can fly you're supafly I think we got a lot in common
Gotta go, can't be slow you know us demons always speeding
See you later by the river if we get some better weather..
I'm glad that there's room for me in this world
To be me through my every evolution
I'm naive I'm impatient I'm a good girl
But when I choose
I can be a perfect demon!
(chorus)
Tried to keep my demon in me
Didn't work, it started singing
Shut my ears and shut my mouth but then it started
Climbing out
People stared and whispered faintly
"That girl's gotta be insane"
I just took off down the highway
Knew I had to do things my way
I'm your modern minor demon
I don't smoke I'm fire-breathing
Tired of people running screaming
Like they saw a ghost or something
Time for the world to get a little bit bigger
Time for the world to beat a little bit faster
Time for the world to get a little bit louder
Time for the world to meet a different creature
Color me ultraviolet
'cause I'm in your skin
Ready for the one who's got a soul to sell me
I'm your modern minor demon
I'll eat your heart for disbelieving
When you get that empty feeling
Know your soul is in my keeping
(chorus)

Morpheus v2.1
05:24
|

le feu chartreuse
I drown, I drown in flame
I am the Queen of Shadow
la reine de l'ombre
le tisserande de chimère je suis et
je me suis abandonnée
à Morphée
once I could not bear to see
the nightmares in my lovers' eyes
so I vowed that I would keep
no more mortals by my side
In the arms of Morpheus
I am near delirious
In the arms of Morpheus I am
alive enough to cry
and I feel and I bleed and I fall to my knees
I scream I am human when I am beside him
'cross the horizon my soul used to wander
as dawn came to waken my body forsaken
I'd rise out of reason to unlatch my kingdom
and let all the dreams I had woven flood into my land
sometimes I
struggled to stand
I may be more than a mortal but I am no god
and it's hard to keep flying when I want to walk
they believe I will be there to save them
the Queen of the Shadows when darkness is calling
and I will not fail to protect my believers
Adore me or fear me, the bottom line is that they're mine
and I
will not lose control
Ils doivent avoir confiance en quelque chose
all they have is now
I won't let them down
even if I have to rule this kingdom alone
In the arms of Morpheus
I am near delirious
in the arms of Morpheus
I am alive enough to cry
and I feel and I bleed and I hurt and I need
I can be human when I am beside him
I am the Queen of the Shadows
but I am still woman
I need to remember that I am alive
I am still beautiful, open these eyes
realize that my life is not only a story
Morpheus!
carry me
In the arms of Morpheus
I am
Je suis brulée par les étoiles
a-flood with fire
le feu chartreuse
I drown, I drown in flame
I am the Queen of Shadow
la reine de l'ombre
le tisserande de chimère
je suis, et
je me suis abandonnée à Morphée

Raise the Dead
04:48
|
|||
Shh...Listen closely
To the cavalry
come to burn me down
I'm surrounded
by their shouting
Time for me to spread my wings and
learn to fly
I descended from fallen angels
All forbidden to fly again
Demons banished to mortal soil
Soon learned how to raise the dead
Oh if only you'd comprehended
when you tried to tear me open
Now I'm forced to call the lightning down
and bring your nightmares
to life
The churchyard brims with shadows..
I'll climb the stairway of glittering points of light
You say
Demons
Never fly
It wasn't long 'fore you showed me the cold of the blade
Now I lead you down to the graves
You've met the girl now meet the
monster
Descended from fallen angels
All forbidden to fly again
Demons banished to mortal soil
Soon learned how to raise the dead
Shellshock and doom impending,
Your army never had a chance
Listen now the dead are rising
Soon the lightning fills the sky
I am not afraid of falling
on the powers I used to hide
They come marching by the hordes
and the torches light their eyes
I know they mean to burn me down
Nothing left to lose tonight
Mine is the power
Mine is the right to climb
the glittering points of light
Shellshock and doom impending
You'd better start defending
Against the horrors I've released!
Checkmate. Game over.
All the shadows
Tighten slowly
To remind you I..
I descended from fallen angels
All forbidden to fly again
Demons banished to mortal soil
Soon learned how to raise the dead
You pretended to be my champion
always wishing to steal my dreams
I remember your fingers so hard
You say the damned will never reach the stars..stars
(hark the stars cluster round the bell tower
while gloom in the dark there blooms like a flower.
Listen, it's priming to chime the night hour...)
Rise from the shadows
Rise from the night
Rise from the shadows
Rise, rise...

Wolf's Lament

Ooo ooo
Luna luna
Luna luna
You refused to lend me a sack of sugar cubes
You refused to lend me
A cup of sugar
You were my neighbor
You were supposed to.
Now there are lights
Like oil lamps burning in my head
Spilling into lagoons where I can hear
Dead mermaids
Singing sweetly to the sky
There's a dead mermaid in your eyes
I see a lovely picture
in the stars
You'll never remember my
Dandelion scars
Luna luna
Dead mermaid's singing to your heart
You refused to lend me a sack of sugar cubes
You refused
So I
Borrowed eternity in a box
Instead
Yes I
Borrowed eternity
Instead
Luna
ooo

Odonatan
03:21
|
|||
have you met the Odonatan human?
he was born like all the others, crawling
by a pond underneath an overturned dinghy, he first caught my eye
human, you have such a curious structure!
i would love to see your dermis ossified
your eyes and hands are plainly begging
to be multiplied
i escorted him, reluctant, to my dwelling
through the labyrinth of labs i keep inside
he was scared but i assured him there would be no worry
once he learned to fly
my assistants held him down through the de-boning
we sedated him with Tramadol and gin
he was giggling through the surgery and stitching
we were glad because the others used to scream
(chorus)
come to me my fine anthropomorphic specimen
i could fashion you a wonder of the world
i consider you to be my sphere of influence
for i am an imperialistic girl
all the papers are a-buzz about his making
news of him is circulating far and wide
all the children and their parents stare astonished
at the image of his compound eyes
marvel at the figure of the Odonatan
gloriously metamorphosized
i could build a chrysalis like his for you
in just your size

Just Like You
02:20
|
|||
I promise I'll obey all my life
I won't claw at the moon
I won't drink in the dawn
I won't paint up the night
I won't do any wrong
I'm going to be going be just like you
going to be going be just like you
And I won't cry
I'll fall before I fly
I'm going to be going be just like you
going to be going be just like you
fall before I fly
just like
just like
just like every one of you
I will not try to rise
will not crash the ceiling or the sky
I'm going to be going be just like you
going to be going be just like you
going to be going be just like you
going to be going be just like you
ah.

Universe

Knock knock knock
Universe
Why haven't you returned my calls?
I think it's
Impolite
To keep the Shadow Queen in such suspense
I told you I don't want to fight
I only want to be in your good graces
I used to hold the aces
To all your games
Did you think you were so hard to tame?
(Trust me I won't make the same mistake)
Maybe once upon a time
I told you that I would be nice
Don't be coy dear
I lied
You're mine
I made you
and I can break you
Too.
(Don't be a fool you know that I make the rules
and if you're hoping for mercy
I'm the wrong kind of God
You can plead, you can fall to your knees
for eternity
You won't sway me
You have betrayed me)
Pardon my
Rather poisonous turn of phrase
I just want you to know
This time you have no place to hide
I'll sear my name on every star
so you'll remember what you are
You came from my imagination
Sorcery and inclination
to design a work of art
A plane superior
'cause the place from whence I came was inferior.
(I have survived the stuff of nightmares and I
don't think you quite understand
that you are mine to demand
I'm already inside of your mind
I'll swallow down your will in mine)
Ma cherie
Battit ses ailes
s'envoler elle
ne peut jamais
Ah mon coeur
Abandonnes-toi moi,
la reine de l'ombre
Now your charms are all undone
Dissolution has begun
Come back soon before you're gone
You have been warned!
(Chorus2)
(Chorus1)
Don't make me break you.
(xiao xin)
Knock knock knock universe
oh, oh universe
No one else deserves
To have what I had first
You
No one deserves you
No one deserves to
have what I had first
what I had first
what I had first..

Dark Water
02:36
|
|||
Just close your eyes, you'll dream of me
I am the goddess of your idolatry
And though astray you may have been led
You'll hear my voice inside your head
Dark water gliding by
Faster butterfly!
Take my wings and learn to fly
I am a dream
Searching for a dreamer
I want my validation
With you be my redeemer?
(Chorus)
Or can my dis-reality
step into your world?
Bleeding through the shadow shapes
I'm more than god or girl
(chorus)
When you make me real
And split me at the seams
I will be the dreamer
And you will be my dream
(chorus)x2
