	Compact disc released 1998.   YOUR PROMISE (English) Arrows shoot forth from your eyes The kind of pain that hypnotizes me Piercing to my very core Shatter my illusions mortally Oh, I know better, don't we all? Yet I cannot deny the call of your promise Wound me, rend me end to end And in your image build me back again Do the things that you must do To prove to me the words you say are true Oh, I know better, don't we all? Yet I cannot deny the call You can take me, shake me, make me You can break me more or less in two I'll believe you and I'll need to For I have no will when I'm with you Your promise to me     VAMPYR (Utley) "Lust is blood and blood is living, look into my eyes", she said, "Take this gift that I am giving and you will never die" And I am falling under and I am crawling underground And in my ears the thunder of a heartbeat slowing down Flashing white against the darkness/Darting victim eyes Scent of fear, intoxication/Can you feel the passion rise? And I am falling under and I am crawling underground And in my ears the thunder of a heartbeat slowing down ...Bleed... Lust is blood and blood is living/Look into my eyes Take this gift that we are giving and you will never die And you are falling under for we have come to take you down We move inside a shadow and you will never hear a sound ...Don't be afraid...     3rd GHOST (English) Look around you, seem familiar? From the look of you, you've been here before Up the garden path you led yourself Where you said you would be nevermore Conversations in your mind cause you to the truth be blind But don't stop listening You must not miss a thing   You're bound to your fantasies You pray they'll never cease Lonely loner in your single bed Into your pillow your passions pour You give yourself to phantom dreams Then wonder why there is no more     SECRET DESIRE (Utley) Tell me your name and I'll tell you a secret There is no end to the things we could share I have a place in my heart where I'll keep it We'll fly as close to the sun as you dare How can I open your eyes? This is my secret desire There is a place in my dreams I could take you Somewhere that this cruel world cannot find Sleep here in my arms and no one will wake you Leaving our lonliness so far behind How can I open your eyes? This is my secret desire Tear you to pieces to quiet my hunger Bathing in blood as we blindly embrace Feeling your claws in my back as it's breaking Tasting the salt from the tears on your face How can I open your eyes? This is my secret desire Forget your world and its lies You are my secret desire Desire     THE DESERTS OF YOUR EYES (English) I wonder what are you thinking, dear, to bring me to a place like this? This place where destinies are forged and fled, this place where once the mighty bled I cannot understand the trembling of your hand What ugly fire have you fed? You were my shining Sheik of Araby, but your sword cuts two ways You protected me from all foes but you, and your lies taught me what's true Imagine all the times I sought the deserts of your eyes and saw oases of blue My first and perfect love, I will never leave you My sad and ancient one, I will never deceive you Come away and cling to my love, I'll devote my life to you My love is only for you, my love is only for you I awake with sand on my tongue, but my thirst is for you Although you left me to die in this place, my one mirage is your face Is it fate that your love turned to hate, as I am easily replaced? Our love burned hot as the desert wind that blew the stars to the sky But the wind brings a chill in the night and tears of hate blur my sight I wander hopefully in this blind and barren sea, for now revenge is my right My shy and selfless one, I will never abuse you I would tear my heart from my chest merely to amuse you Come away and run to my love, I will always protect you My love is only for you, my love is only for you I approach you with fire in my eyes, I have surprise on my side May this night be an end to your lies I watch the light leave your eyes I watch your hands clutch the innocent sands I hear your death choke your sighs My cruel and thoughtless one, I can never forget you My sly and shiftless one, I will ever regret you I am coming to claim my love, I can never forgive you My shame is only for you, my shame is only for you     GAME (Utley/English) Swiftly walking on a winter's night / I feel a passion so profound Something's moving somewhere out of sight / Something so unlike the stillness all around Her limbs grow heavy as we cast our spell / One question burns with hellish light The ancient cat & mouse we play so well / If I should sleep the sleep of life tonight   Come, my little one, don't fear the cold / Their shadow darkens every stair In its diamond heart lies wealth untold / Their crowded heartbeats echo through the air Come & join us in our sad refrain / I'm drugged with beauty & with pain Quench the thirst that burns inside our veins / The demon dance, the cold November rain Come to me / And I will never know Come to me / The deathly peace beneath the snow   See the fear that burns behind her eyes / I look to visages of white Silly things are so afraid to die / They blind me with the wan winter moonlight The wind will swallow up your dying screams / I rise to follow in their way Then you'll see that nothing's as it seems / There's much to learn & many games to play   Come, my little one, don't fear the cold / Our shadow darkens every stair In its diamond heart lies wealth untold / Our crowded heartbeats echo through the air Come & join us in our sad refrain / Come join us in our sad refrain Feel the thirst that burns inside your veins / Come join our dance & revel in the rain Come to me / And we will never know Come to me / The deathly peace beneath the snow     HARMONIC (English) I have never known the anger that you've shown to me & I deserve your sympathy Yeah, I deserve you sympathy How dare you condemn me?   It has been a while since I've seen an honest smile I know I caused your dream to break And though I caused your dream to break Your coldness I can't take I can hear you, you know I can hear every single word you let go Snap out of your spell We don't have to take this hell And we don't have to grow apart We do not have to grow apart Don't let our ending start I can feel you, you know I can feel every single feeling you show I still need you, you know I still need everything I needed before     WHY WON'T YOU HOLD MY HAND? (English) When I take you to the picture show Nobody else in the place Something about you that I'd like to know More than the side of your face I really love you, want to be with you Why won't you hold my hand? So tell me, baby, I don't have rabies Why won't you hold my hand? While we're staring at the lunar glow Our features all trimmed in light My affection for you starts to grow Now do I look like I bite? Why don't you want me, why must you taunt me? Why won't you hold my hand? You make me crazy, are you just lazy? Why won't you hold my hand?   It's really killin' that I'm so willin' Why won't you hold my hand? Said you were tryin', or were you lyin' Why won't you hold my hand?     JOKE'S ON ME (English) Nobody ever said, but I'd always known It doesn't matter with whom you live, you die alone If that seems unfair, you haven't got a prayer Don't waste your prayer Who was it said "Let the lover beware"? Do you ever see even half the pain you cause? Silence is more mighty than even teeth or claws If you shiver in the night, remember you were right You were right And I hope your victory keeps you warm tonight How long can you play your way until you have to pay? What words can I say to make you let me stay? And though my love is comedy I guess the joke's on me     SHE'S SO COOL (Utley) See, there's this girl, and she's so, so very fine She makes the cars crash in my head She makes me think of ice & cats & candlelight She makes me dream of black & red Enchante, mademoiselle This girl's so cool that I put on my coat & gloves Whenever she walks in the room But I'm no fool, 'cause I found out just what she loves I know what makes her heart go Boom boom boom boom She's so cool Now I never meant to go & lose my mind But now I'm all in love with her It's another massacre for Saint Valentine She scratches me & I go Purrrrrrrrrrrr She's so cool     THROW IT AWAY (Utley) Wisdom sits upon the wailing wall And sings to those among us who have ears to hear her But I don't hear anything at all The air is full of daggers & it hurts to listen Speak to me in love or not at all Other hearts than mine are broken by your anger Every time you cut me with your words You cut yourself, you kill yourself I'm begging you to throw it away The world is getting colder every day Girl, you gotta throw it away   You hold in your hands a precious stone It glows with righteous anger & it cuts like diamond It will pull you under all alone Let it fall & shatter, open up your hands & throw it away Your heart is getting colder every day Girl, you gotta throw it away Throw it away     TUMBLE DOWN (English) Tumble down onto the bed Shake the sleep from your head Close your eyes, don't make a sound Feel the mystery closing 'round Round and round and round you go Everywhere the wind will blow Leaving all you've ever known behind On this journey you'll explore what's behind your mind's darkest door Ecstasies you never knew are lying in wait for you Tumble down a darkened shaft Hear your laughter long after you've laughed Fight against your granite grin See the blood seep through your skin Spinning, spinning, on a wheel Not in control of how you may feel Who's to say what's not and what's really there? On this journey you'll explore what's behind your mind's darkest door Ecstasies you never knew are running to hide from you Tumble down as though you're dead Shake the flies from your head Close your eyes and don't look down Feel the sky turn upside down Down and down and down you go Flesh melting from the fire below Leaving all you'll ever know behind On this journey you'll explore what's behind your mind's darkest door Ecstasies you never knew are slowly devouring you     "Blue Creatures" lyrics "Black Not Blue" lyrics "Secret Desire" lyrics "Crash" lyrics
