The Anniversary – Your Majesty

 

Sweet Marie

 

Sweet Marie, there’s a hole where your

      heart should be

And on the hill she’s begging

      for harmony

What beautiful lies you’ve been told

What terrible truths drown your soul

She hides behind all my life

Sweet Marie, how cold your body can be

And on the hill she’s begging

      for harmony

Such a beautiful kiss in the face of fear

Such a beautiful song burns though

      your ears

Oh you need to be loved!

Oh you need to be loved!

Oh you need all my love tonight!

All my love!

 

Crooked Crown

 

Until tomorrow I’ll wear this

      crooked crown

To balance the powers

Telling me to dance the night away now

I wear this crooked crown

Come close, you’ve never been so far

away my dear

Until tomorrow I’ll wear this

      crooked crown

Under the moonlight

Asking me to raise the dead oh oh oh

Raise the dead oh oh oh oh oh yeah!

I wear this crooked crown

Oh sugar-why you want to go and start

      this war

Why you want to go al alone?

Move your lips pretty darling

Oh sugar c’mon!

Shake your hips pretty darling

Oh sugar c’mon!

 

Peace, Pain & Regret

 

I’ve known a lot of funny people

The ones that make us laugh

I’ve known a lot of lonely people

Calling from the past

And in my darkest hour

I find the place where I fit in

Somewhere between the heavens

And the devil’s weary grin

I always will be haunted by the ones

      I’ve loved

Yes I always will be haunted by the

ones I’ve loved

In my eyes

I’ve known a lot lovely people

Though they never spoke to me

I’ve known a lot lovely people

And they never meant a thing

So bring on the piper or the jester’s

lonely heart

For even the happy man gets lonely

      in the dark

I plan to be high beneath the sea

So don’t hold your breath-just breath

We are the ones that make you laugh

Forget all about your troubles

Live in peace, pain, and regret

And forget all your troubles

We are the ones that make you love

When you have no one at all

Yes we are the ones that make you laugh

Yes we are the ones

 

Husam Husam

 

I saw the stone fill her eyes

I saw the shadow on the wall turn white

And she thought she did it right!

The girl who fell across the sea

Husam, who shot your daughter?

Asleep in the house of your father

Husam, who shot your daughter?

The girl who fell across the sea

Turn as the earth and be free!

Weep in the well and be free!

Drink mothers’ milk and be free!

Turn as the earth and be free!

 

The Siren Sings

 

You were a cast away from New Orleans

Fought the world to find your dreams

Oh yeah

Almost starved to death because you

      had no money

Sold your soul for blood and honey

Oh yeah

Cars crash and we collide

As the siren sings the saddest

     song tonight

And this is it, how it all comes down

To the love you would leave

On the streets of your hometown

At the edge of the rest of your life

At the end of a one way road

I was losing everything

And tonight may never shine

If you never open your eyes

I keep this heart right next to mine

I was a cast away from New Orleans

Fought the world and found my dreams

Your heart had to let me go

And now I’d rather die than ever be alone

 

Never Die Young

 

I never thought I would fall over

My feet having pushed under ground

But I fell down

I’ve been told that lovers shine brighter

I’ve traveled the darkest of roads

And nearing the end of each chapter

The book explodes

I never thought I would fall over

My feet having pushed under ground

But I fell down

Save me from myself!

Save me from myself!

Save me from myself!

I’m worried about my health

Back in my head

Back in the back of my head

I’ll never forget these songs

It’s four a.m.

All sound has worn thin

Those memories float along

Taking off in the dawn

I’ll never die young

And I can live to regret this

Others have loved the land

And those rings on your hands

Make the world come together

And it never does turn out right

On goes the fight

 

Tu-Whitt Tu-Whoo

 

By the house that you call home

Lie the evil and the scared

Pass the saints through heaven’s gates

We could hide out there

On the Highland borderline

Brings us back when we were kids

Pictures of our dead loved ones

The night is young so don’t be scared

I’ve known you all my life tonight…

And I won’t let that go

I’ve known you all my life tonight

I am the bastard son of June

I am the lie within the truth

And the owl will watch over you

Let him sing tu-whitt tu-whoo

I’ve loved you all my life tonight…

And I won’t let that go

I’ve loved you all my life tonight

 

The Ghost of the River

 

Walk slowly the rest of your life my dear

See clearly the path of the arrow

      is mirrored

The river will dry up every year

The sun should drink every last tear

It floats above the casket’s leer

So lay down next to your brother and

      go blind

Walk slowly the rest of your life my dear

How lovely, the ghost of the river

      draws near

Keep moving and let faith poor out in

      blood from ear to ear

Burn your money, remember it does you

      no good around here

The river will dry up every year

The sun should drink every last tear

It floats above the casket’s leer

So lay down next to your brother and

      go blind

Who stole my soul?

I may never know!

 

Devil on my Side

 

There is a beauty inside the darkest

      of nights

The black and red lines

The spring has been frozen

The gods have been chosen

They dance in your blood

Your life has been sold

Your life ha been sold

Found your face grew so old?

And near the city of broken hearts

Went to the city of broken hearts

But we all fall apart

How we al feel apart?

We drive with the devil on our side

We drink the land that tastes like wine

I never said my love was true

I put that in the hands of you

Communication

No communication

Just sex and frustration!

You’re killing me killing me

      killing me killing…

You are a killer kid

You are a killer kid

But you did what you did

Oh you did what you did!

There is beauty inside the darkest

      of nights

The black and red lines

At the tip of your head

It’s black and it’s red!

How does it feel to be dead?

I know how it feels to be dead!

 

The Death of the King

 

Oh my God, you are a dangerous lover!

Oh my God, you are a dangerous lover!

Yeah my man, you better run for cover!

Oh my God, you are a dangerous lover!

Oh you were wrong, the king fell from

      his tower!

Oh you were wrong, the king fell from

      his tower!

Yeah my man, you better run for cover!

Oh you were wrong, the king fell from

      his tower!

Bang on the drum

Is it loud enough to shake you?

Friend you’ve been warned

You’ve been told from behind the door

Scream

Scream it loud

Sing it out

Make your love proud!

Scream

Scream it loud

 

Follow the Sun

 

And we all follow the sun

Come everyone, follow the sun.
