I've been raising up my hands drive another nail in
just what God needs one more victim
why do we crucify ourselves every day
I crucify myself
nothing I do is good enough for you
crucify myself every day
and my heart is sick of being in chains
--"Crucify"
excuse me but can I be you for a while...
years go by will I still be waiting
for somebody else to understand
--"Silent All These Years"
He said you're really an ugly girl
but I like the way you play
and I died but I thanked him
can you believe that sick...
I wanna smash the faces
of those beautiful boys
those Christian boys
so you can make me cum
that doesn't make you Jesus
--"Precious Things"
mirror mirror where's the crystal palace
but I only can see myself
--"Winter"
I could just pretend that you love me
the night would lose all sense of fear
but why do I need you to love me
when you can't hold what I hold dear
--"Leather"
maybe she's just pieces of me you've never seen
--"Tear In Your Hand"
I gotta find why you always go when the wind blows
tell me you're crazy maybe then I'll understand...
God sometimes you just don't come through
--"God"
Baker Baker baking a cake
make me a day
make me whole again
and I wonder
what's in a day
what's in your cake this time
--"Baker Baker"
Father says bow your head like the Good Book says
I think the Good Book is missing some pages
gonna lay down gonna lay down
and when my hand touches myself
I can finally rest my head
and when they say take of his body
I think I'll take from mine instead
Getting Off Getting Off while they're all downstairs
signing prayers sing away he's in my pumpkin p.j.'s
lay your book on my chest
feel the word feel the word feel the word feel it
--"Icicle"
if you know me so well then
tell me which hand I use...
Thought she deserved no less than she'd give
well happy birthday
her blood's on my hands
it's kind of a shame
cause I did like that dress
--"Yes, Anastasia"
and I shaved every place where you been
I shaved every place where you been
--"Blood Roses"
Muhammad my friend
it's time to tell the world
we both know it was a girl back in Bethlehem
and on that fateful day
when she was crucified
she wore ShiseidoRed and we drank tea
by her side
--"Muhammad my Friend"
i go from day to day
i know where the cupboards are
i know where the car is parked
i know - he isn't you
--"hey Jupiter" (Dakota)
if the Divine master plan is perfection
maybe next I'll give Judas a try
--"Spark"
so don't give me respect
don't give me piece of your preciousness...
no cigarettes only peeled HAVANAS for you
I can be cruel
I don't know why
--"Cruel"
if you want inside her well,
boy you better make her raspberry swirl
--"Raspberry Swirl"
you're only popular with anorexia
so I turn myself inside out
in hope someone will see
--"Jackie's Strength"
If you want me to Boy I could lie to you
you don't need one of those to let me inside of you...
you sign Prince of Darkness
try squire of dimness
--"She's Your Cocaine"

Favorite Lyrics from to venus and back
is he real or a ghost-lie she feels she isn't heard
and the veil tears and rages till voices are
remembered and his secrets can be told
--"Lust"
anybody knows that you can conjure anything
by the dark of the moon
--"Suede"
In the last extremity--to advance or not to advance--
I hear you laughing
even still you're calling me
"not tonight, not tonight, not tonight"
Josephine
--"Josephine"
is there room in my heart
for you to follow your heart
and not need more blood
from the tip of your star
--"Datura"
these tears I've cried
I've cried 1000 oceans
and if it seems
I'm floating in the darkness
well, I can't believe that I would keep,
keep you from flying
so I will cry 1000 more
if that's what it takes
to sail you home, sail you home, sail you home
--"1000 Oceans"
