The Vice

0:25
Number nine out of eleven little littermates
Rotten apples all the way
Littermates all with different fates
Taught them almost all I knew.

And now the best the primus
Number Nine of eleven little littermates
Feeling almighty
Is after my throne.

In the bright daylight little Number Nine
Dressed to kill much like me
Takes a look at the free world behind the gate
Of a castle and escapes.

1:03
I leave the baits the night awaits
Snare well hidden for the littermate
Evaded all but one one by one.

1:11
Eleven little littermates
Annihilate
Only Number Nine's not in sight
Hiding for the moonlight eats the day
Kisses burn the paperthin wings away.

1:47
Hate me hate me if they want you to break me
Love - is - for - the weak
And the restless relief in the end
A broken lock and a twisted dream.

1:56
For an early tomb destiny's overruled
Trailed it back to the Pagan Cathedral".

2:03
Don't love me don't you dare!
I lie I cheat and I don't care
Don't you go telling me tales about fidelity
Truth ain't safe with me.

2:13
In (sane) in (pain)
Ran into a needle
Eye (love) Eye (hate)
Don't need anyone
Lights (on) Lights (out)
Read it loud and clear
And hear the lion roar.

Without my eyes they failed me
Knots untied
I turned my weakness into a
Fine profession
More I hear more I see
I can feel
The path I choose
What I did was a must
Faced the music away from the light alone
Without a view.

Someone thought to know me well
Drowned me in a wishing well
Making mistakes we all do
Worst of mine was trusting in a stranger.

For now I'm feeling fine
Drank poison liked the sign
Now touch the greatest fear
Impaired to look sincere.

One step behind you turn around and I am gone with what I need
The essense of timely death cold and dark Love Less Hard.
