You won't find my heart You're never gonna find it Staring at an empty sky You won't find my heart You're never gonna find it If you aim too high If you're looking for my heart Then come a creepin' an' a crawlin' Creepin' an' a crawlin' with me It's down here with the gutter rats It's down here with the snake in the grass It's down here in the depths of hell Making a deal with the devil If you're looking for my heart Then come a creepin' an' a crawlin' Creepin' an' a crawlin' with me So it's one last slug from the bottle One last tug on the pipe One last card from the bottom of the deck One last roll of the dice You won't find my heart You're never gonna find it Staring at an empty sky You won't find my heart You're never gonna find it If you aim too high If you're looking for my heart Then come a creepin' an' a crawlin' Creepin' an' a crawlin' with me

What do you do When the liar tells the truth Do you doubt his every word Based on reputation And what do you say When the words just won't fall out As they're sticking in your throat All these pains of expectation Let me out Let me out of this skin Let me out of the darkness And let the light pour in Why do you cry When your tears have all dried up Try to quench your thirst From your broken empty cup And why hang all your hopes On such shallow empty dreams Are you afraid to be awakened To hear your true self scream Let me out Let me out of this skin Let me out of the darkness And let the light pour in Yeah, let the light pour in

Suzy is no-one's lady She is almost Two thirds crazy While you're sleeping Safe beside her She will bind you up with garlands Then she'll tie you up with ribbons Then she'll cover all your body With the sweetest smelling perfume Though she's almost two thirds crazy Suzy is no sinner Though she's broken every vow That she was far to innocent To ever make In her you will see your sister When she treats you like a brother And when she warms you like a mother You will protect her like a father Then you'll think you're Valentino When she whispers I swear there have been no others I swear there have been no others And for a while You will believe That you're the greatest lover That this world has ever known Suzy is no-one's lady

Fuck the men Who make the rules I intend to bend and break them They were built upon the fear of fools All pity will forsake them I'll thrust my hate Into your heart I'll tear your fragile frame apart Then like Salome I will dance upon Your severed head In defiance of your rules As my momentum gathers pace I see the fear etched upon your face And I see doubt locked in your eyes In recognition that I despise your rules You're the rule maker But I'm the rule breaker So I say Fuck the men who make the rules I intend to bend and break them For they were built upon the fear of fools All pity will forsake them And like Socrates I'll gladly drink the hemlock And like Salome I will dance upon Your severed head In defiance of your rules

Envious eyes Burning at my nape As they char my embers pure I cast aspersion Back toward her gaze And that sensuous allure I gravitate To ignorance and blame That's just the nature of this beast And like Icarus melting I am drawn to her flame As her wonders fail to cease But her Jealousy keeps calling It comes crashing to my shore And her jealousy It lives within my heart 'Til love can love no more Draw me a line In the sands of time As I am washed up on her shore But now the tide has turned The one thing I have learned This ship's a wreck no more But her Jealousy keeps calling It comes crashing to my shore And her jealousy It lives within my heart 'Til love can love no more
