Тексты песен «Consider The Thief»

I'll self-destruct With and entity in me that Fails and corrupts. Like cryptic codes and cancer I'll Cauterize, so I can trade flesh and blood For a skin that can't be pierced by spite Or oil that can't run cold...

Hold and listen. Something is missing from the celluloid Where actors, permissive, Hold their positions In pixels to blur the lines between The real and the scene. Steal the motion from the act Picturesque in...

Can we leave it behind, to be untouchable? To document with photos and tape? Can they separate our signatures, And write new passions on our souls? They re-write our souls; Vicarious and careless, are we killing...

O see the light ring through the fog The herald of that distant star That guides you the horizon through, And fades forever when I move. "Come all," it calls, "and conquer While your hearts are young and free"...

You can pull nails, But a hole is made, And for every hole a haunt Of memory Where the voids Left too small A space to slip Through my Recall, the Pieces pulled From my door, Or forget the holes And nails...

I am the fleeting fear to swim that brings you back to shore The hopes that hold you by the anchor, The unmanageable sum of days that never come, The strings that bind you by the fingers. I am the hours earned in...

A fear forms I cannot name Pulsing in waves of sine, In gaunt rooms, in pallid light And flatlines In faith I drank as from a spring, Yet a bane makes itself in me, And thirsts for the very things I despise...

If you go Far away I would grow Sails or wings To cross the deep Above or underneath If the eastern winds Blow kind across The empty space Between my arms I'll make believe them Feathers to Be light enough...

I woke from underneath the signs of a plan surreal, But spoke, Lord, surely I will die with no strength or steel But by brass, I will make their towers kneel. I know men's hearts are swayed by sound in a singer's...

I was seen in stars and sky Whether plated in flesh or gold I am the same as your parents hold, Who borrowed sticks and stones, And abandoned heaven's search, For one closer to the earth They all cried out...

A man amidst thieves, Lay lame and sickly, As the passersby see But all just keep moving There priestly and pious, Pass on the wayside. Heedless and high As all just keep moving None wash them with wine,...
