1.Into The Woods
I've got infection turned to marrow in my bones
Transmitted sexually to thoughts of us alone
I can't pretend to live so comfortably
When the mess you lade left bitter tastes about my tongue and
cheeks
Chorus：
Pushing up daisies and roses turning to dust in our hands
Out in the woods is a place you can bury your dead
Where it gets so lonely
I've got something I need to show you alone
So long redemption there's no part that fits me best
I've jailed affection and have sentenced him to death
I wont defend the guilt your love is charged
A jury made of conscience reads the calling of their hearts
2.Ivory
Ivory's a gypsy, rides the tail of a whiskey
She's headed out to welcome the sun
With my own invitation I showed up at her station
She said that she would like me to come
Thinking should I go, should I go, should I go？
And she kept singing
Last chance train from New Orleans
There's a good chance she might look for me
If I hide won't stray with Ivory into the night
Ivory had eyes they were as green as mine
And we were speaking without using our tongues
Honestly Ivory, I want what your hiding
So if you want me to I will come
Thinking should I go, should I go, should I go？
And she kept singing
Last chance train from New Orleans
There's a good chance she might look for me
If I hide won't stray with Ivory into the night
'Last chance train from New Orleans'
There's a good chance she might look for me
If I hide won't stray with Ivory into the night
Into the night (3x)
3.Birds With Iron Wings
My arms wrapped tight around your bones
I will never let you go, I will never let you go
Beneath the sun bled cherry skies we stare into each other's
eyes
We stare into each other's eyes
Chorus：
Sun dove home and the best of man was fleeting into the clouds
Stand alone as a gentleman I'll lead her out of her gown
Birds with iron wings won't try to leave the ground and touch
the sky
In chastity, she never gets to fly
Bringing down this iron steed gonna wrap that wicked up in
sheets
And she's dressed in a quiet lovers red
4.Naked In The Rain
Show us your bones son, skeleton ghosts that you hide
So said the witches who were children of an Indian tribe
They found you lying at the side of the road
And your eyes showed the dark to your soul
Chorus：
First my heart began to race
Then my hands began to shake
Then we laid naked in the rain
We woke the birds and were vampired by the sun to the east
And we slept in gardens where the flowers bloom the devilish
seeds
They found you lying at the side of the road
And your eyes showed the dark to your soul
5.Warden
Same old story for the Warden
We're all innocent men
Tell the state we need pardon
For many things we never did
Tell my wife I'm waiting for parole
Tell my kids I'm not a criminal
When the guards come and pull me from the dark
Take me on a walk out in the yard
Where talking with the Priest and the Doctor, the Warden and the
Driver from the Coroner's office
Same old story from the warden
Your conviction still stands
Don't tell me you have forgotten
You killed your wife and your kids
All my nights I've waited for their ghosts
To tell them I am not a criminal
And did I go crazy in the dark？
How many years have I been locked up in this place？
Where talking with the Priest and the Doctor, the Warden and the
Driver from the Coroner's office
And the Guards are taking me to a chamber, room full of
strangers
What could this mean？
Everyone was looking 'round, they watched the clock counting
down
What could this be？
Suddenly I start to choke, the room is filling up with smoke
What could this mean？
6.This Night
My dear its time that you should know
I filled my closet full of bones
All parts of skeletons since turned to ghosts
And I wear them underneath my clothes
Chorus：
And darling promise me that you won't close your eyes
Take my hand I'll lead you through this night
And somewhere, someway we'll meet again, my love
In a place where you and I are safe
And somewhere, someway
I traced my shadow on the street
To find that body wasn't me
And I wondered who could this impostor be
And somewhere, someway we will meet
7.The Streets
Into the darkness we went cold and tired
I cursed to hell the chance we wouldn't survive
We fled the arms of tyrants, violence, and lies
And used the stars to map our way through the night
Chorus：
'Cause honestly we hadn't the numbers to walk the streets
looking for trouble
Stuck to the dark for the fear that they'd come and tear us
apart
With gentle steps and steady breaths we were quiet
Our hearts kept pounding like a thundering sky
Walked without shadows 'cause the moon was a spy
And used the darkness to escape before light
And finally the shores where the sun set and open seas crashing
upon them
Gave us a way to commit our escape and we left that place
Darling we have traveled in wonder, I finally see the spell that
we're under
Cast by your heart when we kissed in the dark when we hid from
it all
8.Like Lions
Something's bound to happen
I can hear it in the whispers of the night
Warn the others madness finds us drifting in the calm of tidal
eyes
I'm so scared
We've been found
Ocean rose in violence
We were captive to a storm that wouldn't die
The weakest stood in silence
I was using all I've left to stay alive
I'm so scared
(down to one last breath, I will take it to the deepest depths)
We will drown
(down to one last try, I will stretch the every inch of might)
Run and tell the captain
That there's water in the bottom of this ship
We're sinking rather fast and I am certain that nobody's gonna
live
I'm so scared
(down to one last breath, I will take it to the deepest depths)
We will drown
(down to one last try, I will stretch the every inch of might)
I won't return though I told you I would
Just know that I tried; I did all that I could
I wanted you to know, I wanted you to know
Like lions we fought in the face of the storm
Like giants we stood when our ship wouldn't float
I wanted you to know, I wanted you to know
9.Strangers In Love
Secret life, secret ways
Different name, Different face
Keep word of this far from your tongue
Don't tell a soul the things we've done
Strangers in love (4x)
Woman I, woman we
Got ourselves in something deep
Cold nights we slipped out of our clothes
And faced each other nose to nose
And don't be alarmed, I mean you no harm
Wait to watch the sun; wait until it comes with me
Strangers in love (4x)
10.Reinventing Language
Tonight we're reinventing language
He says he loves you; he's full of hatred
Dark hearts bled the saddest premonitions
What's love？ Darling here's your definition
Our souls met when we fell asleep
And made a pact they would never keep
Then I hurt you honey and you hurt me
Are you sorry？ Cause I'm so sorry
When you dance with the devil you dance in the street
Come on and kick up your feet
You go out and face the demons
They'll be disguised as the people you believe in
I'll be hung in the city square
Will you be watching？ 'Cause I want you there
Don't cry for me I'm already dead
I got sick when you poisoned our bed
I lost my strength and lost my poise
But carried that will to bury that boy
When you dance with the devil you dance in the street
Come on and kick up your feet (2x)
When he took you by the hand and asked you if you'd like to
dance
Murder was my grandest plan we're reinventing our language
With a language that we couldn't speak we were promising each
other things (2x)
When your heart starts looking away know that you'll be on
display
When you dance with the devil you dance in the street
Come on and kick up your feet
11.Dark Hearts
They'd been warned, day was bound to be
Burning up with fever in the poison dusted streets
So they built up iron walls to tower tides of feat
Each of whom will meet their doom before this night retreats
And when their bones decay
In dust they'll float away
On wind bound south to hell
All the dark hearts yell：
We came to wake the dead
With thunder in our breath
With fire in our hands
We'll make the world our prisoner
There will be parades marching to the beat
In masquerade the dark will play a cricket symphony
So they built up iron walls that can not stand the breeze
Like hurricanes our wrath will claim this city as it sleeps
And when their bones decay
In dust they'll float away
On wind bound south to hell
All the dark hearts yell：
We came to wake the dead
With thunder in our breath
With fire in our hands
We'll make the world our prisoner
We came to wake the dead
With thunder in our breath
With fire in our hands
We'll make the world our prisoner
