STATE OF GRACE Sitting in the dark, she hides her madness Sitting in the dark, she takes her place And she’s tried and she’s tried to kill the demons But nothing can prevent this fall from grace Hey, hey, hey... hey, hey She’s dying every day, but then who isn’t Crying in her soup so I wipe her face And I’ve lied and I’ve lied to save her anger Lied and tried to seal her fate But standing in the doorway she looks so holy A halo of desire in a state of grace... a state of grace I’m climbing through the sheets to taste her body Climbing through the sheets to take my place Like a French film blurred as she pulls me closer Shadows on the wall reflect our embrace But standing in the doorway she looks so holy A halo of desire in a state of grace... a state of grace Open up a vein now watch it bleed now She opens up a vein to watch it bleed And I bide and decide my time of leaving Bide and devise my escape But standing in the doorway she looks so holy A halo of desire in a state of grace... a state of grace A state of grace... a state of grace, a state of grace...

TOO BAD SHE’S IN LOVE She is my perfect one, my luminescent sun Her hair her face her guile, the fact she’s stern and vile The scar above her lip, her tender pistol grip Long limbed a lust supreme, framing her dangerous schemes I like the way she hides her laughter The way she looks the morning after... Too bad she’s in love, too bad she’s in love Too bad she’s in love, too bad she’s in love A game that we can’t win, if I could play again I’d cheat and falsify, to taste her one more time Large eyes that mesmerise, the colour of angry skies Soft skin excites my touch, I’d never get enough I like the way she hides her laughter The way she looks the morning after... Too bad she’s in love, too bad she’s in love Too bad she’s in love, too bad she’s in love Too bad, too bad, too bad, too bad A curse a cure a cause, a hunger all because The pieces just won’t fit, it’s more than time permits The need outweighs the lust, rare diamonds crushed to dust I saw that fertile glance, I’ll grant her one more chance... One more chance, one more chance, one more chance One more chance, one more chance, one more chance

BROTHER, SISTER When the cake is cut in favour of the few Brother I can’t take it anymore When forests are burned and the world’s unconcerned Sister it cuts me to the core Human nature wages war on all of us Discord reigns inflicting pain, viral dust a killing lust When I see the hunters murder just for blood Brother I can’t take it anymore When leaders speak of change but do nothing Sister it cuts me to the core Human nature wages war on all of us Discord reigns inflicting pain, viral dust a killing lust When freedom’s dead, our democracy unwed Brother I can’t take it anymore When a tyrant ties a rope to your throat Sister it cuts me to the core Brother it cuts me to the core Sister it cuts me to the core Brother it cuts me to the core Sister it cuts me to the core Human nature wages war on all of us Discord reigns inflicting pain, viral dust a killing lust I can’t take it, I can’t take it, I can’t take it
