THE HOUSE JACK BUILT 6:39
        Open doors so I walk inside
        Close my eyes find my place to hide
        And I shake as I take it in
        Let the show begin
        
        Open my eyes
        Just to have them close again
        Well on my way
        On my way to where I graze
        It swallows me
        As it takes me in his home
        I twist away
        As I kill this world 
        
        Open doors so I walk inside
        Close my eyes find my place to hide
        And I shake as I take it in
        Let the show begin
        
        Open my eyes
        Just to have them close once again
        Don't want control
        As It takes me down and down again
        Is that the moon
        Or just a light that lights this deadend street?
        Is that you there
        Or just another demon that I meet?
        
        The higher you walk 
        The farther you fall
        The longer the walk
        The farther you crawl
        My body my temple
        This temple it tells
        "Step into the house that Jack built"
        
        The higher you walk 
        The farther you fall
        The longer the walk
        The farther you crawl
        My body my temple
        This temple it tells
        "Yes this is the house that Jack built"
        
        Open doors as I walk inside
        Swallow me so the pain subsides
        And I shake as I take this in
        Let the show begin
        
        The higher you walk 
        The farther you fall
        The longer the walk
        The farther you crawl
        My body my temple
        This temple it tells
        "Yes this is the house that Jack built"
        
        The higher you walk 
        The farther you fall
        The longer the walk
        The farther you crawl
        My body my temple
        This temple it tells
        "Yes I am I am I am"
        
        Open my eyes
        It swallows me
        Is that you there
        I twist away
        Away
        Away
        Away
        
UNTIL IT SLEEPS 4:32
        Where do I take this pain of mine.
        I run but it stays right by my side.
        So tear me open and pour me out 
        There's things inside that scream and shout,
        And the pain still hates me 
        So hold me until it sleeps.
        
        Just like a curse, just like a stray.
        You feed it once and now it stays, 
        Now it stays.
        So tear me open but beware 
        There's things inside without a care, 
        And the dirt still stains me 
        So wash me until I'm clean.
        
        It grips you so hold me
        It stains you so hold me 
        It hates you so hold me
        It holds you so hold me
        Until it sleeps.
        
        So tell me why you've chosen me
        Don't want your grip 
        Don't want your greed 
        Don't want it
        Now tear me open make you gone 
        No more can you hurt anyone, 
        And the fear still shakes me 
        So hold me, until it sleeps
        
        It grips you so hold me
        It stains you so hold me
        It hates you so hold me 
        It holds you, holds you, holds you until it sleeps (x4)
        
        Don't want it want it want it want it want it no
        So tear me open but beware 
        There's things inside without a care, 
        And the dirt still stains me,
        So wash me till I'm clean.
        
        Now tear me open make you gone 
        No longer will you hurt anyone, 
        And the hate still shapes me, 
        So hold me until it sleeps (x5)

        Wish I may
        Wish I might
        Have this I wish tonight
        Are you satisfied?
        Dig for gold
        Dig for fame
        You dig to make your name
        Are you pacified?
        
        All the wants you waste
        All the things you've chased
        Then it all crashes down
        And you break your crown
        And you point your finger, but there's no one around
        Just want one thing
        Just to play the King
        But the castle's crumbled and you're left with just a name
        Where's your crown, King Nothing?
        Where's your crown?
        
        Hot and cold
        Bought and sold
        A heart as hard as gold
        Yeah! Are you satisfied?
        Wish I might, Wish I may
        You wish your life away
        Are you pacified?
        
        All the wants you waste
        All the things you've chased
        Then it all crashes down
        And you break your crown
        And you point your finger, but there's no one around
        Just want one thing
        Just to play the King
        But the castle's crumbled and you're left with just a name
        Where's your crown, King Nothing?
        Where's your crown?

        I want it all and I don't care how
        
        Careful what you wish
        Careful what you say
        Careful what you wish you may regret it
        Careful what you wish you just might get it
        
        Then it all crashes down
        And you break your crown
        And you point your finger, but there's no one around
        Just want one thing
        Just to play the King
        But the castle's crumbled and you're left with just a name
        Where's your crown, King Nothing?
        Where's your crown?
        
        Oh, You're just nothing
        Where's your crown King Nothing?
        Oh, you're just nothing
        Absolutely nothing
        Off to never, never land
        
HERO OF THE DAY 4:22
        The window burns to light the way back home
        A light that warms no matter where they go
        They're off to find the hero of the day
        But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way
        
        Still the window burns
        Time so slowly turns
        And someone there is sighing
        Keepers of the flames
        Do you feel your name?
        Did you hear your babies crying?
        Mama they try and break me
        Still they try and break me
        
        Excuse me while I tell them how to feel
        These things we turn to me that still seem real
        Now deservingly this easy chair
        But the rocking starts the wheels of this play
        
        Don't want your hate 
        But the fist I make 
        For you still no fear
        No not on me
        So please excuse me while I tell them how I feel
        
        But now the dreams end
        And now the dreams end
        They everlast the night
        So build a wall 
        Behind it crawl 
        And hide until it's light
        So can you hear your babies crying now?
        
        Still the window burns
        Time so slowly turns
        And someone there is sighing
        Keepers of the flames
        Did you hear your name?
        Did you hear your babies crying?
        
        But now the dreams end
        And now the dreams end
        They everlast the night
        So build a wall 
        Behind it crawl 
        And hide until it's light
        So can't you hear your babies crying now?
        
        Oh they try and break me
        Oh they try and break me
        Oh they try and break me
        Oh they try
        Oh they try
        Oh they try and break me
        Oh they try and break me 
        Oh they try and break me
        Oh they try 
        Oh they try

MAMA SAID 5:20
        Mama, she has taught me well
        Told me when I was young
        "Son, your life's an open book
        Don't close it 'fore its done"
        "The brightest flame burns quickest"
        That's what I heard her say
        A son's heart sowed to mother
        But I must find my way
        
        Let my heart go
        Let your son grow
        Mama, let my heart go
        Let this heart be still
        Yeah, still
        
        Rebel, mind your last name
        Wild blood in my veins
        They bring strings around my neck
        The mark that still remains
        Left home at an early age
        Of what I heard was wrong
        I never asked forgiveness
        But what is said is done
        
        Let my heart go
        Let your son grow
        Mama, let my heart go
        Let this heart be still
        
        Never I ask of you
        But never I gave
        But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
        Never I ask of you
        But never I gave
        But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
        So let this heart be still
        
        Mama, now I'm coming home
        I'm not all you wished of me
        A mother's love for her son
        Spoken, help me be
        I took your love for granted
        Not a thing you said to me
        I needed your arms to welcome me
        But, a cold stone's all I see
        
        Let my heart go
        Let your son grow
        Mama, let my heart go
        Let this heart be still
        
        Let my heart go
        Mama, let my heart go
        You never let my heart go
        So let this heart be still
        
        Never I ask of you
        But never I gave
        But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
        Never I ask of you
        But never I gave
        But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
        Let this heart be still
        
THE THORN WITHIN 5:52
        Forgive me father
        For I have sinned
        Find me guilty of the life I feel within
        
        When I'm branded
        This mark of shame
        So I look down disgraced for saying I know that you must feel
        
        I am, I am the secret
        I am, I am the sin
        I am, I am the guilty
        And I, I am the thorn within
        
        Forgive me father
        For I have sinned
        Find me guilty with true guilt that's from within
        
        So point your fingers
        Point right at me
        For I am shadows and will follow you whatever see my way
        
        I am, I am the secret
        I am, I am the sin
        I am, I am the guilty
        And I, I am the thorn within
        
        I do your time 
        I take your fall
        I'm branded guilty for a soul
        
        So point your fingers
        Point right at me
        For I am shadows and will follow you whatever see my way
        
        I am, I am your secrets
        I am, I am your sin
        I am, I am your guilty
        And I, I am the thorn within
        I am the thorn within
        
RONNIE 5:17
        Stories taught
        Quiet town
        Small time for big time crowd
        Never talks
        Never plays
        Different path
        Lost his way
        
        The streets are red
        Red I'm afraid
        There's no confetti
        No parade
        Nothing happens in this boring place
        But oh my god how it all dismays
        And they all pray
        Blood stain wash away
        
        He said
        "Lost my way
        This bloody day
        Lost my way"
        
        I heard it
        He said
        "Lost my way
        This bloody day
        Lost my way"
        Oh please wash away
        But blood stains the sun red today
        
        I always said
        Something wrong
        Little strange
        All day long
        Never laugh
        Never smile
        Talked alone for miles and miles and miles 
        
        Yellow comes
        Sun I say
        Keep your smile and laugh all day
        He falls again in this foreign place
        For little boys how they do chase
        And they all pray
        Blood stain wash away
        
        He said
        "Lost my way
        This bloody day
        Lost my way"
        
        I heard it
        He said
        "Lost my way
        This bloody day
        Lost my way"
        Oh please wash away
        But blood stains the sun red today
        
        (Spoken)
        Yeah, well all the green things died
        When Ronnie moved to this place
        He said 
        "Don't you dare ask
        Why I'm cursed to wear this face"
        I know why the children called him Ronnie frown
        When he pulled that gun from his pocket
        They all fall down down down 
        
        He said
        "Lost my way
        This bloody day
        Lost my way" 
        
        I heard it
        He screamed
        "Lost my way
        This bloody day 
        Lost my way"
        Oh please wash away
        But blood stains the sun red today
        
        All things wash away
        They all fall down
        But blood stains the sun today
        
        All things wash away
        They all fall down
        But blood stains the sun today
        
THE OUTLAW TORN 9:49
        You know I wait my whole lifetime for you
        
        I ride the dirt I ride the tide for you
        I search the outside search inside for you
        To take back what you left me
        I know I'll always burn to be
        No one seeks so I may find
        And now I wait my whole lifetime
        My whole lifetime
        
        So on I wait my whole lifetime for you
        So on I wait my whole lifetime for you
        
        The more I search the more my need for you
        The more I blast the more I bleed for you
        You make me smash the clock and feel
        I'd rather die behind the wheel
        Time was never on my side 
        So on I wait my whole lifetime
        My whole lifetime
        
        And I'm torn
        And if I close my mind in fear
        Please pry it open
        And if my face becomes sincere
        Beware
        And when I start to come undone
        Stitch me together
        And when you see me stretched remind me of what left this outlaw torn
        
        And if I close my mind in fear
        Please pry it open 
        And if my face becomes sincere
        Beware
        And when I start to come undone
        Stitch me together
        And when you see me stretched remind me of what left this outlaw torn
