1) Are You Afraid of the Dark?
3:50, lyrics:
Your fingers are slipping, trying to get a hold on my wrist
The ring’s in your way, you’ve got nothing to hide from me
Still, you keep trying to disappoint me
“an old habit” you say as you blow your smoke in circles (out of my bedroom window)
You wouldn’t like to lose me, you’re lying
And on the inside you’re dying
Don’t think about tomorrow, make sure you survive the day
All you’re saying is that you did this for me
Excuse me, but you’re nothing more than a bleeding contest
So what if you bled more than I did
You lost your touch quite a while ago
You wouldn’t like to lose me, you’re lying
And on the inside you’re dying
Don’t think about tomorrow, make sure you survive the day
Call me blind, I just know what I did
You’re the one that’s screwing up everything
Just pack your bags and burn down the closet
Since I’ve packed it all like three weeks ago
You wouldn’t like to lose me, you’re lying
And on the inside you’re dying
Don’t think about tomorrow, make sure you survive the day

MISCELLANEOUS DISCOGRAPHY
Some songs listed on songmeanings.net
??) "Let Me Spell the Word W.H.O.R.E. for You"
You're playing with your hair
You seem to care more about
The way you dress than the way you miss me
The way you kissed me, cheated on me
The sheets you crawled under are whiter than your soul
Then again, what isn't when it's compared to you?
You could simply blame this on a lack of self control
I will when I kick you out off my bed
Sweet dreams my dear
Just close your mouth for once
Open your ears to hear
Lie to me baby, one more time
You whisper his name when you're asleep
Every syllable comes straight out of your heart
And I know where you're at when you're smiling like that
Sincere dishonesty are the words that come closest to describing you
Sweet dreams my dear
Just close your mouth for once
Open your ears to hear
Lie to me baby, one more time
If you'd give me your hand
You'd count your fingers afterwards
Count me in, count me out
You're dark and gorgeous
Lying is all what you're about
Sweet dreams my dear
Just close your mouth for once
Open your ears to hear
Lie to me baby, one more time

??) Sleepingbags VS Your Bed
Oh I hate you so when you talk like that
Saying those words over and over again
"This ain't the movies dear, you talk like a fill it in"
If I wanna dream then I'm a dreamer
I will chase them forever, and to be honest with you I've never chased you
You've been too good to be a dream, but baby don't turn into a nightmare
So go kiss yourself goodnight in your sleep
So go call yourself and make yourself weep
Cry it out, you think you're so special
I hate you more than you'll ever know
You're almost a 24 with the illusion of safety
A 2 and a 4 makes it six and perhaps this is coincidence
Dust needs to be swept away you know
This is just a matter of self defense
This could be all too late, you're lucky that I don't believe in fate
So go kiss yourself goodnight in your sleep
So go call yourself and make yourself weep
Cry it out, you think you're so special
I hate you more than you'll ever know
Saying those words over and over again
"This ain't the movies dear, you talk like a fill it in"
If I wanna dream then I'm a dreamer
I will chase them forever, and to be honest with you I've never chased you
You've been too good to be a dream, but baby don't turn into a nightmare
So go kiss yourself goodnight in your sleep
So go call yourself and make yourself weep
Cry it out, you think you're so special
I hate you more than you'll ever know
You're almost a 24 with the illusion of safety
A 2 and a 4 makes it six and perhaps this is coincidence
Dust needs to be swept away you know
This is just a matter of self defense
This could be all too late, you're lucky that I don't believe in fate
So go kiss yourself goodnight in your sleep
So go call yourself and make yourself weep
Cry it out, you think you're so special
I hate you more than you'll ever know
??) Wipe the Sleep from Your Eyes
The longer I wait, the harder it gets
To fill my sleep and long for your dreams
I can’t forget, these chances I had
It has been just too long now, it has been just too long now
And I hate so much to hurt you
I’m so tired of lying all the time
I just can’t be honest to tell you the truth
I just want to hate you
My feelings for you have left through my backdoor
There’s nothing left to talk or cry about
It has just been too long now and you know what I’m thinking
We’re probably better off this way
And I hate so much to hurt you
I’m so tired of lying all the time
I just can’t be honest to tell you the truth
I just want to hate you
‘Cause I’m sick of the drug and the alcohol that I took
and the more I see you the brighter this looks
You’re just not the one, no you’re just not the one
You’re just not the one
And I hate so much to hurt you
I’m so tired of lying all the time
I just can’t be honest to tell you the truth
I just want to hate you
The longer I wait, the harder it gets
To fill my sleep and long for your dreams
I can’t forget, these chances I had
It has been just too long now, it has been just too long now
The longer I wait, the harder it gets
To fill my sleep and long for your dreams
I can’t forget, these chances I had
It has been just too long now, it has been just too long now
And I hate so much to hurt you
I’m so tired of lying all the time
I just can’t be honest to tell you the truth
I just want to hate you
My feelings for you have left through my backdoor
There’s nothing left to talk or cry about
It has just been too long now and you know what I’m thinking

??) You Call It Suicide, I Call It Murder
Is it the last time, is this the last time
That you call me after midnight
Saying soft words after fake fights
Did you wonder, did you ask yourself
“Was I lying all the time
When he’s dead then I’ll be fine”
No it’s not that easy
And I hope you’re doing well
When you’re kissing your own mirror
You’re kissing your own mirror, tonight
Just spare me all the details
Honestly I don’t give a shit
I don’t want to know, I don’t want to know
All I know is I miss your soft curves
The seventh heartbreak of your…
Your seventh heartbreak
I miss your heart, do you still have one?
No it’s not that easy
And I hope you’re doing well
When you’re kissing your own mirror
You’re kissing your own mirror, tonight
Is it the last time, is this the last time
That you call me after midnight
Saying soft words after fake fights
Did you wonder, did you ask yourself
“Was I lying all the time
When he’s dead then I’ll be fine”
No it’s not that easy
And I hope you’re doing well
When you’re kissing your own mirror
You’re kissing your own mirror, tonight
Just spare me all the details
Honestly I don’t give a shit
I don’t want to know, I don’t want to know
All I know is I miss your soft curves
The seventh heartbreak of your…
Your seventh heartbreak
I miss your heart, do you still have one?
No it’s not that easy
And I hope you’re doing well
When you’re kissing your own mirror
You’re kissing your own mirror, tonight
??) Zack Morris Used to Be My Hero But I Was Saved by the Bell
As straight lines start to blur
I will fade away into your arms
Don’t try to make right what’s wrong
Two lefts just won’t make it right
Into the air my lungs start to fill with poison
My integrity falls when I breathe out
Fight my eyes for the lies I see
For your love this is all I’ve left to burn
Search for me in the dark
And you will finally see
Nothing’s here for you to take
So kiss me while you still have the chance
My feelings bled out for all the times I hated you
You know I did, yes I did
Your knife’s still sharper than mine
And your words are carved deep into my soul
Try to stop me bleeding, try to stop me
If there is any truth left in you
Try to stop me bleeding, try to stop me
If there is any life left in you
Search for me in the dark
And you will finally see
Nothing’s here for you to take
So kiss me while you still have the chance
As straight lines start to blur
I will fade away into your arms
Don’t try to make right what’s wrong
Two lefts just won’t make it right
Into the air my lungs start to fill with poison
My integrity falls when I breathe out
Fight my eyes for the lies I see
For your love this is all I’ve left to burn
Search for me in the dark
And you will finally see
Nothing’s here for you to take
So kiss me while you still have the chance
My feelings bled out for all the times I hated you
You know I did, yes I did
Your knife’s still sharper than mine
And your words are carved deep into my soul
Try to stop me bleeding, try to stop me
If there is any truth left in you
Try to stop me bleeding, try to stop me
If there is any life left in you
Search for me in the dark
And you will finally see
Nothing’s here for you to take
So kiss me while you still have the chance
??) Chaos Sticks Three Thingers Up with a Twist
(note the live video mentioned above adds, "... That Might Even Confuse Christopher Walken" to the end of the song title)
Are there any words I need to whisper?
I mean, why do you insist in telling me lies
Hell no I won’t keep my voice down
Your lack of faith destroys my trust in you
I tried to set your clouds on fire
But even bleeding grenades won’t take you down
They’re taking you over, taking you over
Take me out when you are dead
You’re holding me for just 10 seconds
You say this is forever
Hey whats one more lie on a lifetime
“when I say it’s over I’ll tell you the truth”
I tried to set your clouds on fire
But even bleeding grenades won’t take you down
They’re taking you over, taking you over
Take me out when you are dead
“I won’t hold onto you” you said
But still I find you bleeding
It grabs me and suffocates me
I can’t get you out of my head
I tried to set your clouds on fire
But even bleeding grenades won’t take you down
They’re taking you over, taking you over
Take me out when you are dead
If I’d find a bullet and shoot it through my head
I still wouldn’t forget you, I still wouldn’t forget you
I’m not sure of what it takes
I wish that you would be dead
I tried to set your clouds on fire
But even bleeding grenades won’t take you down
They’re taking you over, taking you over
Take me out when you are dead
