I wander long and long wonder, why some birds walk and some hop and some genetically flop, I wonder long and long wander. I wander long and long wonder, why turtles crawl and cats creep while frogs practice frog- leap I wonder long and long wander. I wander long and long wonder why I wander and wonder walk and to myself nonsense talk I wonder long and long wander.

Lullaby 04:05
Close your eyes And let the darkness fold around you Drift away May all your sweetest dreams surround you Let nothing alarm you You've nothing to fear No one's going to harm you As long as I’m near As long as I'm here Warm tired tears Distort the shadows on the wall Moonlight beasts Succumb to sleep and drown them all Let nothing alarm you You've nothing to fear No one's going to harm you As long as I’m near As long as I'm here Stars may slice the darkness falling Owls may break the silence calling Pay no heed Your dreams are yours and yours alone Safe and warm A magic world that's all your own Let nothing alarm you You've nothing to fear No one's going to harm you As long as I’m near As long as I'm here I’ll always be here I’ll always stay here by your side

Teeth 03:22
I promised him I wouldn't bite But he'll not let me from his sight It's getting sore, this twisted jaw And it just seems I can't let go, but oh, He's losing blood at such a rate He said, "oh you jezebel, come into my world Demanding everything from me" He said, "with those fevered teeth, and their lethal technique You'll never ever be set free" I've kit my wardrobe all in black And when he goes I know I'll never want him back So soft and sweet, for wayward teeth, And I just close my eyes when they ask me What plagued you into such a state? He said, "oh you jezebel, come into my world Demanding everything from me" He said, "with those fevered teeth, and their lethal technique You'll never ever be set free" Curl me back, spring by spring, put me into the cage again Heart attack, wear me thin, come and let my demons in Curl me back, spring by spring, put me into the cage again Heart attack, wear me thin, come and let my demons in When I smile, he skips a beat Cos he sees nothing but my sharp white teeth I've bled him dry I don't know why he lets me take his life in my hands And lead him to eternal sleep He said, "oh you jezebel, come into my world Demanding everything from me" He said, "with those fevered teeth, and their lethal technique You'll never ever be set free" He said, "oh you jezebel, come into my world Demanding everything from me" He said, "with those fevered teeth, and their lethal technique You'll never ever be set free"

Eurydice 03:09
I can see your body shaking Lie beside you, watch the hell inside you I can see the way you're aching The kind of hurt that tries to tear a heart in two I can see your demons preying I can see the way they move inside you But it won't shake me, yeah I'm staying We'll lie in the dark together if I can't bring the light to you And if you go, if you leave me Then I'll go where you lead me If you go, Eurydice I won't look back, I won't look back 'Til you're home I can see the pain you're facing Like a mirror shining back upon me But if you have to burn then I'll be waiting With your body in my arms until you feel some relief And if you go, if you leave me Then I'll go where you lead me If you go, Eurydice I won't look back, I won't look back If you go, then you'll lead me Because I know that you need me If you go, Eurydice I won't look back, I won't look back 'Til you're home Oh, 'til you're home

If You Just 03:49
When I take in the air, you surface again And when I breathe out, I breathe out your name Each flavour I taste, your body I take Each person I reach, just through seeking your face You shine down on me then you take it away again You shine down on me then you leave me in the rain Is it love if you just wish you were dead? Is it love if you just wish you were dead? Is it love if you just wish you were dead? When I talk in my head, it's you I address But thoughts spoken out are thoughts I regret Each corner I turn, your shadow I see Every moment I live, bitter poetry You shine down on me then you take it away again You shine down on me then you leave me in the rain Is it love if you just wish you were dead? Is it love if you just wish you were dead? Is it love if you just wish you were dead? Is it love if your words remain unsaid? Is it love if you just want to forget? Is it love if you just wish you were dead?

I was told that I need to be good As he chased me into the woods But it's a cruel, cruel world for the meek Even in fairytales I was told that I'd get my reward I'm too pretty to fight my own cause But a voice inside me said, Don't listen to what they say So I harnessed all my charms And prepared my box of hearts I'll find the ones who did me harm And they'll say Regina Regina Take what you need to, I'll die just to please you Regina I was told that I'd only survive If I learned how to flutter my eyes But if you're looking up, you'll only see the predators At first it was just a disguise A mask just to keep me alive But very soon I liked the darkness that I saw So here's the bedtime story If the princess isn't destroyed She turns into a fearsome queen And they'll say Regina Regina Take what you need to, I'll die just to please you Regina I cut on through so easily You'll never know how much I bleed Just like a cat fall on my feet And like a snake know how to cheat So take your bow and you'll receive Regina Regina Take what you need to, I'll die just to please you Regina

Heroine 04:28
Find the light, put it out Wrong or right, don't matter now Are you looking for a heroine Or are you looking for a reason to fall? Bring the stars to the gutter Bring revenge to its mother Are you looking for a heroine Or is it me you might be looking for? Oh, it's what you wanted Oh, it's what you wanted Don't matter if the sun don't rise I've nothing left to compromise I wouldn't even recognise redemption I've nothing left to keep disguised Don't matter if it horrifies I wonder that you seem surprised to see me again Turning pain into power All you gain is to get harder Are you looking for a heroine I don't believe that's what you're looking for Turning time, finding balance Between fire and innocence If you're looking for a heroine You should be looking in another world Oh, it's what you wanted Oh, it's what you wanted Don't matter if the sun don't rise I've nothing left to compromise I wouldn't even recognise redemption I've nothing left to keep disguised Don't matter if it horrifies I wonder that you seem surprised to see me again It's what you wanted It's everything you're looking for It's how you hunted You gave the cry, I took the fall But tell me, does it matter now That nothing's worth it anymore And are you happy now? Are you happy now? Don't matter if the sun don't rise I've nothing left to compromise I wouldn't even recognise redemption I've nothing left to keep disguised Don't matter if it horrifies I wonder that you seem surprised to see me again

Dark imaginings are the product of a sick, sick mind My heart, it's carrying every carcass that you'd leave behind Fickle mistress, home of the weak's desires In the silence, longing to satisfy Slyly beckoning, and the sinners always drop on by I was born to a rebel moon in a hurricane Little boy blue gonna know my name Tell me something true, tell me something plain Say it all again And when the horror's so enchanting It's where the devil finds his darlings And here I wait to celebrate The sorrow and the scarring For all that's beautiful, there's a sinister reality The sharpest rock, for every captivating melody Deep inside the cave where the creatures glow Tell me, as above, is it so below? Give me your love, and I'll remain a mystery Do you feel bad when you wonder about How the seven wonders of the world came about? Do you sleep at night, do you choose to doubt? Do you block it out? And when the horror's so enchanting It's where the devil finds his darlings And all the rest are fair of face, and full of grace, And good and gay, and pure and chaste, Yet here I wait to celebrate The sorrow and the scarring

Soliloquy 04:33
Behold a mountain of treasure and covet my throne But there will never be pleasure in hearts made of stone This kingdom looked so divine from the road But from the moment I made it my own All of the gold you can measure, to disown When you have won all your battles, well what now is there to do When everything that once mattered, no more of value to you Destroyed everything only to learn That just to love and be loved in return That is the answer but you will never know The words I say, soliloquy My echo weighs like gravity Destroyed everything only to learn That just to love and be loved in return That is the answer, but I will never know From a distance this nothing looked so beautiful Oh, I would have done any, anything at all And now this stage that I'm calling my home So majestic but I'm so alone Love is the answer but I will never know The words I say, soliloquy My echo weighs like gravity Destroyed everything only to learn That just to love and be loved in return That is the answer, but I will never know
