[Intro]
Sitting in your castle waiting for someone else to come
It’s a drinking place where cleaners chase the mistakes that we have done
[Pre chorus]
Take me there (always)
Take me there (leave me now)
Take me there (always)
Take me there (leave me now)
[Break]
And the facades on the brink of destruction
You’re holding your drink - what a minor obstruction
To think..
Alone,
The damage that you’ve done
Is comparable to no one.
So read your parables (Instrument injection into loop)
Dance!
Don’t spill your drink
Blame everyone
So read your parables (Instrument injection into loop)
Dance!
Pass out…
You’re God’s only son.
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
Ooh Let this space erase our mindless state
Ooh let this drink erase my mindless face.
[Bridge - Half Speed]
Superstition wakes me up
And I decide to cut my veins in protest of / Love
[Repeat]
[Chorus with spoken word overlaid]
[Spoken word Segment]
Alone in your castle
You’re calling the maids again.
Holding up your crucifix
You are bleeding from your skin.
[Pre chorus]
[Chorus/Pre chorus together till fade out]

[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I need you
The same way
I look after my drink at night
The same way.
I toss and turn
The same way
I wake and learn to miss your face on
The same day.
And it’s not over till the Angel’s sing
their song.
Why do I hear them crying early on?
[Chorus]
Ohhhh
(The fall)
Doesn’t it taste like sin?
(Hiding away, hiding away, hiding away,
hiding away)
Once again.
Ohhhh
(The fall)
Doesn’t it taste like sin?
(Hiding away, hiding away, hiding away,
hiding away)
Once again.
[Verse 2]
I’ve got my spirits back up
So you can vacate, away!
It’s not like this cup was ever full
Anyway.
And any day of the week
Night in the street
It’s so discreet
When their eyes meet,
tears began to form a haze.
I move to you
From the shadows of my maze.
And so each sip is burning
And every head is turning
It must look odd or something
They say it’s God, it’s nothing.
The way she cries
A million miles away
The skies will stage a play
In which we reconcile,
The distance
Fear
And hate….
[Chorus]
Ohhhh
(The fall)
Doesn’t it taste like sin?
(Hiding away, hiding away, hiding away,
hiding away)
Once again.
Ohhhh
(The fall)
Doesn’t it taste like sin?
(Hiding away, hiding away, hiding away,
hiding away)
Once again.
Hiding away [repeats/loops]

It’s getting harder To reach outside the box, yeah
We both know
Time has stopped
But who’s to say it won’t come back again.
And my veiny hands are getting cold
Waiting for you to come home
I believe I’ve not grown enough
To see the back of your head.
Too many tears,
Too many ways I’ve cried
Too many fears,
Too many faces die along the way.
A constant neglect for real life
Will be my remedy for decay.
And I let things stray, stray then come back
Remaining intact, a stitch in my back
Has crawled all the way up to the surface of my skin
Reminding me that I’m just constantly resurfacing.
Give me, give me, give me
Something to wipe the dust away
Something to hide behind
The lines that I don’t want to say.
Give me, give me, give me, give me
A piece of you that I can keep
The fear and fright that I have seen
Tonight we’ll cry and then we’ll dream.
It’s getting harder and you know it’s never gonna stop
Comatosed and left on the spot, a thought
A hopeless reminder of me trying to function
Living beside you remembering.
The years we lost, the fears the cost of hoping
It nearly got to us, I’m still choking
On the rusted bones of love
A soulless sight that’s gone but might be destined for above.
Give me, give me, give me
Something to wipe the dust away
Something to hide behind
The lines that I don’t want to say.
Give me, give me, give me, give me
A piece of you that I can keep
The fear and fright that I have seen
Tonight we’ll cry and then we’ll dream.
Then we’ll dream.
Everyday you’ll find us dreaming
In auburn skies. (repeats)
