THE HOUSE JACK BUILT
Open door so I walk inside
Close my eyes, find my place to hide
And I shake as I take it in
Let the show begin
Open my eyes
Just to have them closed again
Well on my way
But on my way to where I've been
It swallows me
As it takes me in its fog
Mmm, I twist away
As I give this world the nod
Open door so I walk inside
Close my eyes find my place to hide
And I shake as I take it in
Let the show begin
Open my eyes
Just to have them closed once again
Don't want control
As it takes me down and down and down again
Is that the moon?
Or just a light that lights this dead end street?
Is that you there?
Or just another demon that I meet?
The higher you are
The farther you fall
The longer the walk
The farther you crawl
My body, my temple
This temple it tilts
Step into the house that Jack built
The higher you are
The farther you fall
The longer the walk
The farther you crawl
My body, my temple
This temple it tilts
Yes this is the house that Jack built
Yeah
Open door as I walk inside
Swallow me so the pain subsides
And I shake as I take this in
Let the show begin
Let the show begin
Let the show begin
The higher you are
The farther you fall
The longer the walk
The farther you crawl
My body, my temple
This temple it tilts
Yes this is the house that Jack built
The higher you are
The farther you fall
The longer the walk
The farther you crawl
My body, my temple
This temple it tilts
Yes I am
I am
I am
Open my eyes
It swallows me
Is that you there
I twist away
Away
Away
Away
UNTIL IT SLEEPS
Where do I take this pain of mine?
I run but it stays right by my side
So tear me open, pour me out
There's things inside that scream and shout
And the pain still hates me
So hold me
Until it sleeps
Just like the curse, just like the stray
You feed it once and now it stays
Now it stays
So tear me open, but beware
There's things inside without a care
And the dirt still stains me
So wash me
Until I'm clean
It grips you so hold me
It stains you so hold me
It hates you so hold me
It holds you so hold me
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
So tell me why you've choosen me
Don't want your grip
Don't want your greed
Don't want it
I'll tear me open, make you gone
No more can you hurt anyone
And the fear still shakes me
So hold me
Until it sleeps
It grips you so hold me
It stains you so hold me
It hates you so hold me
It holds you, holds you, holds you
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
I don't want it
I don't want it, want it, want it, want it, want it, no!
So tear me open, but beware
There's things inside without a care
And the dirt still stains me
So wash me till I'm clean
I'll tear me open, make you gone
No longer will you hurt anyone
And the hate still shapes me
So hold me until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
KING NOTHING
Wish I may
Wish I might
Have this I wish tonight
Are you satisfied?
Dig for gold
Dig for fame
You dig to make your name
Are you pacified?
All the wants you waste
All the things you've chased
And it all crashes down
And you break your crown
And you point your finger, but there's no one around
Just want one thing
Just to play the King
But the castle's crumbled and you're left with just a name
Where's your crown King Nothing?
Where's your crown?
Hot and cold
Bought and sold
A heart as hard as gold
Yeah, Are you satisfied?
Wish I might, wish I may
You wish your life away
Are you pacified?
All the wants you waste
All the things you've changed
Then it all crashes down
And you break your crown
And you point your finger, but there's no one around
Just want one thing
Just to play the King
But the castle crumbled and you're left with just a name
Where's your crown King Nothing?
Where's your crown?
I wish I may
I wish I might
Have this wish I wish tonight
I want that star
I want it now
I want it all and I don't care how
Be careful what you wish
Be careful what you say
Careful what you wish you may regret it
Careful what you wish you just might get it
Then it all crashes down
And you break your crown
And you point your finger, but there's no one around
Just want one thing
Just to play the King
But the castle crumbled and you're left with just a name
Where's your crown King Nothing?
Oh, you're just nothing
Where's your crown King Nothing?
Oh, you're just nothing
Absolutely nothing
Off to never, never land
HERO OF THE DAY
Mama they try and break me
The window burns to light the way back home
A light that warms no matter where they've gone
They're off to find the hero of the day
But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way
Still the window burns
Time so slowly turns
Someone there is sighing
Keepers of the flames
Do you feel your name?
Can't you hear your babies crying?
Mama they try and break me
Still they try and break me
Excuse me while I tend to how I feel
These things return to me that still seem real
Now deservingly this easy chair
But the rocking stopped by wheels of despair
Don't want your aid
But the fist I made
For years can't hold off fear
No, I'm not all me
So please excuse me while I tend to how I feel
But now the dreams and waking screams that everlast the night
But now the dreams that everlast the night
So build the wall, behind it crawl
So build the wall
And hide until it's light
So can you hear your babies crying now?
Still the window burns
Time so slowly turns
Someone there is sighing
Keepers of the flames
Did you hear your name?
Can't you hear your babies crying?
But now the dreams and waking screams that everlast the night
But now the dreams that everlast the night
So build the wall, behind it crawl
So build the wall
And hide until it's light
So can't you hear your babies crying now?
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try
Mama they try
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try
Mama they try

And I won't waste my hate on you
Hate
Yeah!
Ain't gonna waste my hate

Don't waste, waste your breath
And I won't waste my hate on you
Waste my hate on you

Think you're worthy now
You think enough to even raise a brow
And to laugh and tip that two pronged crown
When I see my hands I see my feet
I feel that blood that pumps in beat
But where the hell's my mind goin' now
Get goin' now
Good day
How do, and I'm sending a smile to you
Don't waste, waste your breath

MAMA SAID
Mama, she has taught me well
Told me when I was young
Son, your life's an open book
Don't close it before it's done
The brightest flame burns quickest
That's what I heard her say
A son's heart's owed to mother
But I must find my way
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Yeah, be still
"Rebel", my new last name
Wild blood in my veins
Apron strings around my neck
The mark that still remains
Left home at an early age
Of what I heard was wrong
I never asked forgiveness
But what is said is done
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
So let this heart be still
Mama, now I'm coming home
I'm not all you wished of me
A mother's love for her son
Spoken, help me be
I took your love for granted
Not a thing you said to me
I need your arms to welcome me
But cold stone's all I see
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Let my heart go
Mama, let my heart go
You never let my heart go
So let this heart be still
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
So let this heart be still
THORN WITHIN
Forgive me father, for I have sinned
Find me guilty of the life I feel within
When I'm branded this mark of shame
Should I look down disgraced
Or straight ahead and know that you must blame
I am, I am the secret
I am, I am the sin
I am, I am the guilty
And I am, and I am, I am the thorn within
Forgive me father, for I have sinned
Find me guilty when true guilt is from within
So point your fingers, point right at me
For I am shadows and will follow you
One and the same are we
I am, I am the secret
I am, I am the sin
I am, I am the guilty
And I am, and I am, I am the thorn within
I do your time
I take your fall
I'm branded guilty for us all
So point your fingers, point right at me
For I am shadows and will follow you
One and the same are we
I am, I am your secret
I am, I am your sin
I am, I am your guilty
And I am, and I am, I am the thorn within
I am the thorn within
I am the thorn within
I am the thorn within
I am the thorn within
I am the thorn within
RONNIE
Story starts, quiet town
Small time boy, big time frown
Never talks, never plays
Diff'rent path, lost his way
Dead streets of red, red I'm afraid
There's no confetti, no parade
Nothing happens in this boring place
But oh my god, how it all did change
Now they all pray
Blood stain wash away
He said:
Lost my way, this bloody day
Lost my way
I heard him, he said:
Lost my way, this bloody day
Lost my way
All things wash away, but blood stained the sun red today
I always said, somethin' wrong
With little strange Ronnie Long
Never laughed, never smiled
Talked alone for miles and miles and miles
Gallow calls, son I say
Keep your smile, but laugh all day
Think once again, in this boring place
For little boys how they soon change
Now they all pray
Blood stain wash away
He said:
Lost my way, this bloody day
Lost my way
Yeah I heard him, he said:
Lost my way, this bloody day
Lost my way
All things wash away, but blood stained the sun red today
[spoken]
Yeah, well all the green things died
When Ronnie moved to this place
He said:
Don't you dare ask
Why I'm cursed to wear this face
Now we all know why
The children called him "Ronnie Frown"
When he pulled that gun from his pocket
And they all fall down, down, down
He said:
Lost my way, this bloody day
Lost my way
Yeah yeah I heard him, he screamed:
Lost my way, this bloody day
Lost my way
All things wash away, but blood stained the sun red today
That's right
All things wash away
And they all fall down
But blood stained the sun today
All things wash away
And they all fall down
But blood stained the sun today
THE OUTLAW TORN
And now I wait my whole lifetime
For you
And now I wait my whole lifetime
For you

For you
To take back what you left me
I know I'll always burn to be
The one who seeks so I may find
And now I wait my whole lifetime
An outlaw of torn
An outlaw of torn
And I'm torn
So on I wait my whole lifetime
For you
So on I wait my whole lifetime
For you
The more I search, the more my need
For you
The more I bless, the more I bleed
For you
You make me smash the clock and feel
I'd rather die behind the wheel
Time was never on my side
So on I wait my whole lifetime
An outlaw of torn
An outlaw of torn
Yeah an outlaw of torn
And I'm torn
Hear me
And if I close my mind in fear, please pry it open
See me
And if my face becomes sincere, beware
Hold me
And when I start to come undone, stitch me together
Save me
And when you see me strut, remind me of what left this outlaw torn
Hear me
And if I close my mind in fear, please pry it open
See me
