Crazy For You
03:05
|
|

|
White straps and buckles
Our tender embrace,
French kissing tablets
That make you fade.
Electro shock tickles
Boudoirs with padding,
Undying love
My imagining.
Roses are red, kisses blue,
Love is crazy and I am too.
Crazy for you...
In this world you love me
warm limbs entwined,
Your orders don't restrain
My name not reviled.
There's no “Her”
Big boys don't cry,
The only death are little
And you're still alive.
Your yumm yumm body,
They'll never find,
The only remains in my mind,
Your heart, at last mine,
In pastry puff with a glass of wine.

Bubbleglum

Abandon all hope he who enter Her,
Succubus palate perverse,
Addict of the Vile refrain,
Hook your tears up to my veins...
It may be sick but sing along,
MISERY THE SWEETEST SONG,
Misery, like BUBBLEGLUM,
I've brought enough for everyone...
Gorge I shall, your deepest woes,
Gorge until you're naught but bone,
When skeleton screams thrill no more,
Off I crawl for misery, MORE MORE MORE!
It may be sick but sing along,
MISERY THE SWEETEST SONG,
Misery, like BUBBLEGLUM,
I've brought enough for everyone...
Cannibal hearts go BOOM BOOM BOOM
But only for the DOOM DOOM DOOM x2
Sung for me, no lullabies,
All I've rehearsed, bloody lies,
I will carve every word,
On your heart too so you can LEARN
It may be sick but sing along,
MISERY THE SWEETEST SONG,
Misery, like BUBBLEGLUM,
I've brought enough for everyone...

Carmilla's Return
03:07
|
|

You can't kill the dead,
I'm coming back for you,
Carmilla's Return.
Forgotten, but not gone,
Lust silenced, still strong,
Light trickles through this grave,
As I make my escape.
In shadows where you walk,
Your footsteps I'll stalk,
Invade your dreams, scream my name-
Memories will get the blame.
From my kiss, none can save,
Carmilla burning in your veins,
Torn between temptation, terror,
Enslaved to me- this time forever.
Your betrayal easy to forget,
once chained in my arms again,
In my castle, on your knees...
You can't kill the dead,
I've come back for you,
Carmilla's returned.
Because I love you.

It's my party, I'll die if I want to, my funeral, nobody asked you, it's my party I'll die if I want to - DIE DIE DIE I WANT TO!
Today is a gift, that's why it's "present"
Well life has shit taste,
I'm not saying thank you, or sharing my cake,
I'll burst the balloons at this wake COS
It's my party, I'll die if I want to, my funeral, nobody asked you, it's my party I'll die if I want to - DIE DIE DIE I WANT TO!
If life was to live for, it wouldn't invite
Kids I don't like,
It's not what I wanted, no more playing nice,
GIVE ME TOYS OR I WILL BITE COS
It's my party, I'll die if I want to, my funeral, nobody asked you, it's my party I'll die if I want to - DIE DIE DIE I WANT TO!
We're all gathered here today, smile for the camera,
what's not to celebrate, sing happy deathday,
we're gathered anyway, dressed in our finest,
what's not to celebrate? We're one brat minus.
We're. Here. HOORAY. Play Pass the Coffin,
What's not to celebrate? I'm getting my own way - UH-OH!
It's my party, I'll die if I want to, my funeral, nobody asked you, it's my party I'll die if I want to - DIE DIE DIE I WANT TO!

I Am The Boogieman
05:14
|
|

You can sleep with the lights on, check under your bed, no logic prayer or Boogie trap will save your sorry head... you can HIDE, hard as you can.. NO ESCAPE, she's the Boogieman...
I am the skeleton in the closet
You're afraid to lock away
Ridiculed, I'm not scary,
By the light of day
But YOU, hear me,
Have EVERY cause to fear me,
My ghost will go on,
But your heart won't!
You can sleep with the lights on, check under your bed, no logic prayer or Boogie trap will save your sorry head... you can HIDE, hard as you can.. NO ESCAPE, she's the Boogieman...
I am the shift in the shadows,
Dismissed but biding time,
The footsteps you ignore ,
The whispers in your mind,
Now you, hear me,
And know I am near thee,
"Do you have a message for us?"
YEAH! DIE!
You can sleep with the lights on, check under your bed, no logic prayer or Boogie trap will save your sorry head... you can HIDE, hard as you can.. NO ESCAPE, she's the Boogieman...
Monsters march at midnight,
Beware the dark that looms,
Hell hath no fury like,
ME, scorned by YOU,
My ashes on your mantle
Will NEVER be enough,
How dare you breathe,
How dare you love.
You promised,
When the reaper sang for me,
With bloody wrists in tow,
You'd follow and find me
And now a promise is a promise,
Even after death,
And now I'M BACK!
Your promise, I'll collect...
You can sleep with the lights on, check under your bed, no logic prayer or Boogie trap will save your sorry head... you can HIDE, hard as you can.. NO ESCAPE, she's the Boogieman...

Please Sir, Can I have some gore?
A dainty dish, such a bore,
butcher til life bleeds no more,
Gimme gimme gimme GORE.
Who cares for a good name or upstanding origins?
I just want to wallow in a filthy vat of sin
I've been such a lady
Polite, patient for each bite,
Life's portions TOO SMALL
Time to SLASH a larger slice
Please Sir, Can I have some gore?
A dainty dish, such a bore,
butcher til life bleeds no more,
Gimme gimme gimme GORE.
My dance card waste paper for a flock of dandy pimps,
I'm sick of selling kisses to every foppish gimp,
With blood lust I'm emboldened,
A Raven I deserve,
That sad parade of pigeons,
EVISCERATE AND PURGE.
Please Sir, Can I have some gore?
A dainty dish, such a bore,
butcher til life bleeds no more,
Gimme gimme gimme GORE.
Chop to the top, no more starve or falter,
Distress to success, embrace the slaughter,
Self indulgent glutting worthy of a libertine
Of my own desires, at last, I'm the QUEEN.
Please Sir, Can I have some gore?
His humble heart, such a bore.
Butcher til I scream NO MORE
Gimme gimme gimme...
Please Sir, Can I have some gore?
A dainty dish, such a bore,
butcher til life bleeds no more,
Gimme gimme gimme GORE.

Ringmaster
03:14

The acrobats fall from the sky
Like I fell for Him,
Ringmaster of oblivion
In a circus of sin,
To tame His heart,
I've braved lions,
And eaten fire..
Roll up! Roll up! Never Enough,
I've done everything, for His touch..
Ringmaster,
Courtesan to the clowns,
is all you, see me as,
Ringmaster,
Soon in my grasp.
Swinging from a trapeze
Says you, where I should be,
Not knocking on your door
Nightly like some freak show whore.
Oh!
So you want to see me fly?
Well then, have your wish,
I'll prove I'm worth it..
Roll up! Roll up! Marvel in fright,
No safety net, Just nails tonight..
Watch me fly, watch me fly,
I'll make you love me,
Watch me fly..
I'm falling, falling, to the ground,
My last sight, a screaming crowd,
Finally it's me you're holding,
As I lay impaled in the ring,
That you commanded so well,
Like my heart that now beats in Hell...
