the midas touch has gone away
the slightest push and i will break
the spell you cast on me today
i feel it now pulling me every way
it's getting harder to believe in escape
i'm your familiar
and every time you want to feed me
all you do is open up your veins
and if you ever get tired and release me
i'll come crawling back to you again
i am your plaything
you hold me in a padded cell
to keep me safe from myself
the walls are are soft but not enough
i bang my head against them anyway
it's getting harder to remember my own face
how unfamiliar
and every time you want to feed me
all you do is open up your veins
and if you ever get tired and release me
i'll come crawling back to you again
again..i am your plaything
locked in your cell
i'm your familiar

burn (pure radio)

the seasons changed and these worn chains,
have fallen away, rusted and grey.
a seed in me has broken free,
of it's dormant state, curling round my spine.
i feel it growing inside of me,
got to keep the fever down,
going to let the demon out...
tonight, we'll set the sky alight,
the fire in you, the fire in me.
I've been burning all my life,
and we need that to survive,
the fire in you, the fire in me.
the reasons change but growing pains,
are every day, eating away,
a hole in me, a broken piece,
of a fading mosaic.
forever burning inside,
got to keep the fever down,
going to let the demon out...
will you burn, will you burn with me,
start a fire, start a fire in me.
I really want to know...
satellite in the atmosphere,
burning bright, going to disappear.
you can never put it out,
I'm a loner in a crowd, on a lava sea,
will you burn with me...

silent night
lonely night
and so far away from home
all is calm
all is quiet
i'm so tired of being alone
can you help me get out of this hole
soft red light
from outside
i'm drowning here on my own
turning round
upside down
this heartbeat sound is all i know
i can't wait to get out
i hope i don't come falling out
stillborn
blinding light
i'm alive
awake at last to see the show
give me voice
teach me words
i've so much to learn and know
free to sin
free to shine
free to go
free to grow
free to go
free to grow

one with the scars, on the mountainside,
where the aeroplane crashed.
down with the wrecks under the waves and their broken sails.
too far away from the distant shore to save myself,
too many reasons to fall.
three wishes wasted, freedom only tasted,
it burnt my mouth, I spat it out and put on more chains.
four years ago when it all came down I was underground,
for...all the reasons I don't know.
five still alive, a survivor's tale, right off the rails.
fine, but I nearly lost it all.
six gun with one shell, a single shot toward hell.
the sound rang out...you drowned it out,
opened up your mouth and went crashing down,
with a scream of pain.
