Oh! It’s just you again Here to darken my door I- I’ve seen many things I don’t want to anymore Just when I think I’m alone That’s when you follow me home Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar Oh! Didn’t see you there Nice to meet you again I’m in the black again Falling fast, slipping in Slipping in When I think I’m alone That’s when you follow me home Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar When I think I’m alone That’s when you follow me home Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar Black Familiar

Feeling Good 02:54
(Feeling good, Feeling good) Feeling good But I wonder how long it will last Feeling good But I wonder how long it will last Feel alright Once I empty every drop in the glass Tried to slow it But you know it When you drink too fast I wanted to be far from here I wanted to be far from here Feeling good, good, good Feeling good, good, good Feeling good But I wonder how long it will last Feeling good But I wonder how long it will last Feel alright But I just keep on feeling bad How long till “happy ever after”? Yeah, life is a drag I wanted to be far from here I wanted to be far from here I wanted to be far from here I wanted to be far from here Feeling good, good, good Feeling good, good, good Feeling good, good, good Feeling good, good, good How long till “happy ever after”?

I’m the night The empty street And the shuffle Quick as feet I’m the chill Down your spine Feel me baby Make you mine I’ll be watching as you sleep I’m the fool that you keep But don’t mind me I’m just going along for the ride Listen baby To me speak Make you tremble Make you weak I’m the city And the heat You know bad men Never sleep In the air that you breathe In the food that you eat But don’t mind me I’m just going along for the ride In the air that you breathe In the food that you eat But don’t mind me I’m just going along for the ride Don’t mind me I’m just going along for the ride Don’t mind me Don’t mind me Don’t mind me Don’t mind me Don’t mind me Don’t mind me Don’t mind me Don’t mind me

I would not ask to be your driver I would not hold a door for you No banner in the sky, Floating by Bears your name upon it But I’ll bring flowers to your grave Ever still Flowers to your grave Ever still You know they never could forget her A beauty mark that lasts forever Cause when you dig your grave The papers want to know your name As ever They’ll bring flowers to your grave Ever still Flowers to your grave Ever still Ever still you lay in glory Something funny you can’t know Pushing daisies up to the top They go on forever They’ll bring flowers to your grave Ever still Flowers to your grave Ever still Flowers to your grave Ever still Flowers to your grave Ever still Ever still Ever still Ever still

Killing Me 03:53
It’s such a long time And you’re on my mind Something tells me I’m on yours too Kill me slowly One and only Dying wish is that We are two Mirrors, faces, shadows All I see Angels, demons Slowly killing me In the funhouse Just can’t get out The problem is You have to want to Through the red door (I’ll) be nevermore Locked inside With nothing to prove Mirrors, faces, shadows All I see Angels, demons Slowly killing me Mirrors, faces, shadows All I see Angels, demons Slowly killing me Slowly killing me Slowly killing me

When I Fall 02:47
You are only make believe Everything that you can see Is just another crazy dream A dream A dream A dream Get you to the world on time Coming down from way up high Take me pretty baby Down for a ride A ride A ride A ride Tried to get away from it all Tried to get away from it all Tried to get away from it all But you know how hard I fall When I fall When I fall When I fall When I fall (You are only make believe) (You are only make believe) When I fall (You are only make believe) (You are only make believe)

The Shadow 04:09
My love is a ghost town Yeah my baby can’t be wrong Everything is black and shuttered Sing a lonely song Should I feel ashamed to think I would rather die? Funny, it’s the only thing Tears roll from my eyes And I cry In the shadow My love is alone In some forgotten, distant land Dark is tearing at the windows Had all I can stand Heaven’s where I want to be Everybody’s there Lots of people dressed in color Flowers in their hair And I cry In the shadow
9.
Can you see me? Or am I alone now? I’m on fire Wind’s about to blow through this town The sun is out for me The moon looks different Sitting on the dark side Everybody Leaves a trail of love behind The sun is out for them The sun is out for you Take it or leave it Take it or leave it Take it or leave it Take it or leave it Sitting cross leg On a magic carpet I keep my distance In eiderdown and household pets The sun is out for them I’ve been wondering What you’re really thinking I’ve been waiting To see what you will be in the end The sun is out for me The sun is out for you Take it or leave it Take it or leave it Take it or leave it Take it or leave it

In the Dark 02:30
What is love if not for fun? A loaded trigger on a gun Shoot me down Take my lovin’ on the run What is love if not for fun? What are tears inside the rain? You are me, but not the same Does a light still shine in your windowpane? What are tears inside the rain? In the dark with you In the dark with you What is life without the sun? To float in space where there is none Lucky stars die in black to become one What is life without the sun? In the dark with you In the dark with you In the dark with you In the dark with you In the dark with you

Time is a flowing stream Tick tock tick tock tick I’m somewhere in between Feelings of love and a tear from above I’m only here a while So why can’t I just be Stoned on make believe? Bit by bit by bit I’m losing part of me It’s a feeling I find Coming time after time It’s a weight that’s pushing, pulling Right on top of me And it feels like I’m falling faster And it feels like I’m falling faster So I’m begging you to see Twirling, twisting, faster Right in front of me Bees in my mind Buzz night after night They pull, they pick, they jest They never let me be And it feels like I’m falling faster And it feels like I’m falling faster
