Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane
But the memory remains
Heavy rings on fingers wave
Another star denies the grave
See the nowhere crowd,
Cry the nowhere tears of honor
Like twisted vines that grow,
That hide and swallow mansions whole
And dim the light of an already faded primadonna
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane
But the memory remains
Heavy rings hold cigarettes
Up to lips that time forgets
While the Hollywood sun sets behind your back
And can't the band play on
Just listen, they play my song
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane (sane)
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane
Dance little tin goddess
(humming by Marianne FaithFull)
Drift away
Fade away
Little tin goddess
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane (sane)
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane, but the memory remains
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black
The memory remains
Yeah
To this faded primadonna, yeah, yeah

Dance little tin goddess, dance

Lay beside me, tell me what they've done
Speak the words I wanna hear, to make my demons run
The door is locked now, but it's open if you're true
If you can understand the me, then I can understand the you
Lay beside me, under wicked sky
The black of day, dark of night, we share this paralyze
The door cracks open, but there's no sun shining through
Black heart scarring darker still,
But there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining...
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you...
What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?
Come lay beside me, this won't hurt I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again
She lay beside me, but she'll be there when I'm gone
Black heart scarring darker still
Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Dead sure she'll be there...
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you...
What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?
(solo)
Lay beside me, tell me what I've done
The door is closed, so are you're eyes
But now I see the sun, now I see the sun
Yes now I see it...
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you...
What I've felt, what I've known
So sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits,
The one who waits for you....
Oh what I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you....
(So I dub thee unforgiven...)
Oh, what I've felt...
Oh, what I've known...
I take this key (never free...)
And I bury it (never me...) in you
Because you're unforgiven too....
Never free...
Never me...
'Cause you're unforgiven too...
I look at you, then you me
Hungry and thirsty I wait
Holding the lion's share
Holding the key
Holding me back 'cause I'm striving to be
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Lock horns I push, and I strive
Some how I feel more alive
Bury the need for it?
Bury the sea
Bury me deep when there's no will to be
Better than you
Oooh, Better than you
Better than you
Better than you
Oh, can't stop this train from rollin'
Oh, nothing brings me down
No, I can't stop this train from rollin', no, no, no, no

So wake up sleepy one...
It's time to save your world...
Steal dreams and give to you
Shop lift a thought or two
All children touch the sun
Burn fingers one by one
By one...
Will this earth be good to you
Keep you clean or stained through....
So wake up sleepy one...
It's time to save your world...
You're where the wild things are...
Yeah, toy soldiers off to war...
Big eyes to open soon
Believing all under sun and moon
But does heaven know you're here?
And did they give you smiles or tears?
No, no tears

So wake up sleepy one...

Call to arms, the trumpet sound
Toy horses start the charge
Robot chessmen standing guard
We shall never surrender!!!!

Hand puppets storm the beach
Firetrucks trapped out of reach
All clowns reinforce the rear
Slingshots fire into the air
Stuffed bears hold the hill 'til death
Crossfire from the marionettes

Burn fingers one by one
Will this earth be good to you
Keep you clean or stained through....
So wake up sleepy one...

It's a black cloud over head, that's me
And the poison ivy chokes the tree, again it's me
I'm the filthy one on Bourbon Street, you walk on by
I'm the little boy that pushes hard and makes him cry
There's a dirty needle in your child, haha, stick me
Empty bottles still in hand still dead, still me

My eyes seek reality
My fingers seek my veins
There's a dog at your back step
He must come in from the rain
I fall cause I let go
The net below has ride away
So my eyes seek reality
And my fingers seek my veins
The trash fire is warm
No safe from the storm
And I can't bare to see
What life let me be
So wicked and worn
So as I write to you
What is done and to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'Cause low man is due
Please forgive me
My eyes seek reality
My fingers feel for fear
Touch clean with a dirty hand
I touched the clean to the wings
The trash fire is warm
No safe from the storm
I can't bare to see
What life let me be,
So wicked and worn
So as I write to you
What is done and to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'Cause low man is due
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
So low the sky is all I see
All I want from you, is forgive me
So you bring this poor dog in from the rain
Though he just wants right back out again
And I cry, to the alley way
Confess all to the rain
But I lie, lie straight to the mirror
One I've broken, to match my face
The trash fire is warm
No safe from the storm
And I can't bare to see
What life let me be
So wicked and worn
So as I write to you
What is done and to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'Cause low man is due
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
Solo in the sky is all I see
All I want from is what you made
So, you bring this poor dog in from the rain
Though he just wants right back out again
Suppose I say, I'm never satisfied
Suppose I say, you cut the roots
To make the tree survive
Just let me kill you for a while
Just let me kill you for a smile
Just let me kill you once
I'm oh so born to die
Ohhhh, I hunger
I hunger

Born Into Attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all your bullets in the fire
And run like hell
I get a fever, what ever happened to sweat?
Suppose I say, the vultures smile at me
Suppose I say, I set them down they plan to pick you clean
And satifaction this way comes
And satifaction this way comes
And satifactions here and gone
gone, yeah gone again
Ohhhh, I hunger
Ooh I hunger

Born Into Attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all your bullets in the fire

Dolls of voodoo all stuck with pins
One for each of us and our sins
So you lay us in a line
Push your pins they make us humble
Only you can tell in time
If we'll fall or mearly stumble
But tell me
Can you heal what father's done
Or fix this hole in mother's son
Can you heal the broken worlds within
Can you strip away so we may start again
Tell me can you heal what father's done
Or cut this rope and let us run
Just when all seems fine and I'm pain free
You jab another pin
Jab another pin in me
Mirror, mirror upon the wall
Break the spell or become the doll
See you sharpening the pins
So the holes will remind us
We're just the toys in the hands of another
And in time needles turn from shine to rust
But tell me
Can you heal what father's done
Or fix this hole in a mother's son
Can you heal the broken worlds within
Can you strip away so we may start again
Tell me can you heal what father's done
Or cut this rope and let us run
Just when all seems fine and I'm pain free
You jab another pin
Jab another pin in me
(solo)
Blood for face
Sweat for dirt
Three x's for the stone
To break this curse
A ritual's due
I believe I'm not alone
Shell of shotgun
Pint of gin
Numb us up to shield the pins
Renew our faith which way we can
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love
To fall in love
To fall in love with life again
So tell me
Can you heal what father's done
Or fix this hole in a mother's son
Can you heal the broken worlds within
Can you strip away so we may start again
Yeah, tell me can you heal what father's done
Or cut this rope and let us run
Just when all seems fine and I'm pain free
You jab another pin
Jab another pin in me
No more pins in me
No more, no more pins in me
No more, no more pins in me
No more, no more, no more
No, no, no
