2. Sanctified
itīs still getting worse after everything i tried.
what if i found a way to wash it all aside.
what if she touches with those fingertips.
as the words spill out like fire from her lips.
. if she says come inside iīll come inside for her.
if she says give it all iīll give everything to her.
i am justified.
i am purified.
i am sanctified.
inside you
Heavenīs just a rumor sheīll dispel.
as she walks me through the nicest parts of hell.
i still dream of lips i never should have never kissed.
well she knows exactly what i canīt resist
i think we should get in the front right now,
get in the front right now!
doesnīt that feel good?
now youīre ready to go, get it.
now i want you to get in there and get the job done.
life is great!
life is terrific!
thank you God for another wonderful day!
iīm still caught up in another of her spells.
well sheīs turning me into someone else.
everyday i hope and pray this will end.
but when i can i do it all again
and if she says come inside iīll come inside for her.
if she says give it all iīll give everything to her.
i am justified.
i am purified.
i am sanctified.
inside you
i am purified.
i am terrified.
i am sanctified.
inside you
even when itīs bowling shapes and see your life begin to change.
3. Maybe Just Once
i canīt believe that what i feel is really happening to me.
make it hurt.
and point the finger at my insecurities.
well i guess i just donīt understand about those complexities in your mind.
and i guess i just donīt understand why this world seems so unkind.
. maybe. maybe just once. i get whatīs coming.
maybe. maybe just once. i get whatīs coming to me.
so once again the way you feel will never ever stay the same.
and iīm to blame.
i wonder just who made the rules up for this game.
well i guess i just donīt understand about what you want and what you need.
and i guess i just donīt understand about how it has to be.
you sat down on this bed and you said
"Christ, what the hell do you think this place is?"
you know.
he just couldnīt believe it!
and i said
"i donīt know but it sure is something different"
so go ahead.
you say those thousand things you think you have to say.
look at me.
and tell me loveīs not such a hard word anyway.
well how can you count on me i thought you realized for sure.
and how can you just believe.
i thought i deserved just a little more.
oh God.
oh whatīs coming to me.
4. The Only Time
iīm drunk.
and right now iīm so in love with you.
and i donīt want to think too much about what we should or shouldnīt do.
lay my hands on Heaven and the sun and the moon and the stars.
while the devil wants to fuck me in the back of his car.
. nothing quite like the feel of something new.
maybe iīm all messed up.
maybe iīm all messed up.
maybe iīm all messed up in you.
maybe iīm all messed up.
maybe iīm all messed up.
maybe iīm all messed up.
maybe iīm all messed up in you.
maybe iīm all messed up.
this is the only time i really feel alive.
this is the only time i really feel alive.
i swear.
i just found everything i need.
the sweat in your eyes the blood in your veins are listening to me.
well i want to wrap it up and swim in it until i drown.
my moral standing is lying down.
5. Kinda I Want To
i canīt shake this feeling from my head.
thereīs a devil sleeping in my bed.
watching you from across the way.
i cannot make this feeling go away
. i know itīs not the right thing.
and I know itīs not the good think.
but kinda i want to.
iīm not sure of what i should do.
when every thought iīm thinking of is you.
all of my excuses turn to lies.
maybe God will cover up his eyes
why does it have to be this way?
why does it have to be?
why does have to be this way?
kinda i want to.
maybe just for tonight.
we can pretend itīs alright.
whatīs the price i pay.
i donīt care what they say.
i want to.
i want to (iīll take my chance tonight)
6. Thatīs What I Get
just when everything was making sense.
you took away all my self-confidence.
now all that iīve been hearing must be true.
i guess iīm not the only boy for you.
. but thatīs what i get
thatīs what i get
thatīs what i get
thatīs what i get
how could you turn us into this?
after you just taught me how to kiss you.
i told you iīd never say goodbye.
iīm slipping on the tears you made me cry.
but thatīs what i get.
thatīs what i get.
thatīs what i get.
thatīs what i get.
for trusting you.
thatīs what i get.
why does it come as a surprise.
to think that i was so naive.
maybe didnīt mean too much.
but it meant everything to me.
7. Purest Feeling
purest feeling.
purest feeling.
well i think iīm gonna push it as far as it will go.
give in to desire.
only you will know.
so tell me all your secrets.
iīll stick it in your head.
i wish i could remember everything she said.
purest feeling.
purest feeling.
purest feeling.
purest feeling.
well she can be my savior with everything she does.
or some kind of punishment for people just like us.
i donīt really believe she understands whatīs happening to me.
the sooner that she gets it the better it will be.
purest feeling.
purest feeling.
purest feeling.
purest feeling.
purest feeling.
i have got it figured out. (i should have known all along).
i canīt live without her.
purest feeling.
i have got it figured out.
8. Ringfinger
(Actually an unreleased earlier version entiltled as "Twist")
well youīve got me working so hard lately.
working my hands until they bleed.
if i was twice the man i could be.
iīd still be half of what you need
still you lead me and i follow
all of your back up to your chin.
over to the tip of your switchblade as you pull it out and stick it in.
. (Twist,Twist,Twist) we can go a little deeper.
(Twist,Twist,Twist) iīm wearing these chains.
(Twist,Twist,Twist) you make it hurt real good.
(Twist,Twist,Twist) i love the pain.
well you just leave me nailed here.
hanging like Jesus on the cross.
iīm just dying for your sins.
and aiding to the cause.
wrap my soul in bandages.
iīm tired of this war.
go ahead and cut me.
i canīt even feel it anymore.
9. Down In It
kinda like a cloud i was up way up in the sky.
and i was feeling some feelings you wouldnīt believe.
sometimes i donīt believe them myself and i decided i was never coming down.
just then a tiny little dot caught my eye.
it was just about too small to see.
but i watched it way too long.
that dot was pulling me down.
. i was up above it.
i was up above it.
i was up above it.
i was up above it.
now iīm down in it
shut up.
so what what does it matter now.
i was swimming in the hate now i crawl on the ground.
and everything i never liked about you is kind of seeping into me.
i try to laugh about it now but isnīt it funny how everything works out.
i guess the jokes on me.
i used to be so big and strong.
i used to know my right from wrong.
i used to never be afraid.
i used to be somebody.
i used to have something inside.
now just this hole itīs open wide.
used to want it all.
i used to be somebody.
iīll cross my heart and hope to die.
but the needleīs already in my eye.
and all the worldīs weight is on my back and i donīt even know why.
and what i used to think was me is just a fading memory.
i looked him right in the eye and said "goodbye."
rain rain go away.
come again some other day.
na na na na na na na na.
