Ghost In The Microphone

There’s no telling what will happen next
You haven’t seen anything yet
Won’t stop ‘til you’re screaming in your sleep
For me
But you keep coming back
You want the release and the attack
Your body is trembling over and over again
Coming back from the other side
Exorcise the demons in your mind
Watch the shadows crawling on the wall
Slow down
I’ll put the words inside your mouth
Slow down
I can’t talk to you anymore
Feel me standing at your door
I can’t talk to you anymore
Hear my footsteps dragging on the floor
I can keep you on your toes
A ghost inside your microphone
I’ll do anything that you want me to
I’ll do anything that you want me to do
I will haunt your every move
A ghost is chasing after you
I’ll do anything that you want me to
I’ll do anything that you want me to do

Crooked Smile
03:42
|

There seems to be
A darkness underneath
So I see
Something you’re not telling me
Braced to fall
Pinned against a wall
Breathing fast
With your fingers crossed behind your back
I’d start over
And wouldn’t change a thing
All I want is all you’ve got
Won’t work on me
Won’t work on me
Won’t work on me
Let’s go over exactly what you need
A heavy sigh
Your hands between your thighs
A crooked smile
Says you do this all the time

Keep Me In The Dark
03:28

Shake off your sex appeal
Skin tight you wear it well
Perfected every stare
But you never look at me
You’ve got such mass appeal
Good fit it suits you well
Flush red and I can tell
You’ve drank enough for me
Who are you thinking of?
My god, I’m hoping I am the one
But you never look at me
Whatever you’ve done before
Just keep me in the dark
Whatever you’ve got in store
Just keep me in the dark
Whatever can turn you on
Just keep me in the dark
Whenever you’ve got it all
Just keep me in the dark
When you’re smiling
It means you’re hiding something
And when you’re laughing
I know you’re laughing at me
Don’t make me beg and steal
What you do, you do so well
You’re such a snake when you’re threatened
You use your tongue and your body as a weapon
So many times I’ve blinked and missed it
I’ve got a life, but I don’t have to live it
I wish that I could cast a spell
I’d look at you but I’d be seeing someone else
All your dancing
Is always such a tease
And all your talking
It comes so easily

Every Other Word
02:46
|

Hiding behind the walls from you
Cameras can see it all
Their eyes are all on us
Pushing the below on you
From a world we have never known
They close their eyes on us
Every other word is a lie
Only honest half the time
I’ve tried to see both sides
Every other sound is a sigh
See it all in black and white
I’ve tried
The urge, the sound
It’s swelling up and it falls back down
The weight is all on us
This isn’t right, this isn’t wrong
This is the only way
We all recognize our place

Scam Artist

I’m so close to falling
And I can’t make sense of your confidence
I know that look in your eye
What you say and mean
Are two different things
I’m so close to falling in
You mess with me so carelessly
No matter how hard I try
You’ll always win
You’re gonna suck me in
You can’t act so offended
If I call you out
Your latest scam has ended
I’m gonna bring you down

Fools
03:39
|
|||
Has there ever been a worse time?
To shut down and cut ties
Calling off all negotiations
Oh we are
Stretching out the divide
You’re torn apart from the inside
Giving in to the complications
Oh we are
You’ve been fooling everyone
You’re fooling with yourself
And all the fools are gonna fall for it
Feel the rift drawing near
Spoon fed what you want to hear
You won’t change for the right conditions
You can’t survive without the opposition
Why are we fighting ourselves?
We should be fighting for the same side
You take the path of the most resistance
You will complain to anyone who listens
You’ve been fooling everyone
You’re fooling with yourself
And all the fools are gonna fall for it
You’ve been sticking to your guns
You’re sticking to yourself
And all the fools are gonna fall for it
Why won’t you let me in the conversation?
Why won’t you let me hear the words inside your mouth?
Why won’t you let me in the conversation?
You’ll never hear me when you’re talking to yourself

Road Warrior

Your friends are on the back porch talking about a genocide
I haven’t got such a political mind
Inside we’re touching lips
I don’t care about their politics
All talk, such a waste of a night
If you’re looking for a place to go
I hate to sleep alone
Leave your clothes on for me
Give me some mystery
Will you tell me if you’ve had enough?
You’re just another girl I told I’d keep in touch
Your friends are in the basement looking for an empty room
You’re gonna find me in a particular mood
I am not known for self-restraint
What my body wants it takes
And I want you
Give me something to see
You know I hate the mystery
Will you tell me if you’ve had enough?
You’re just another girl I told I’d keep in touch
I guess it didn’t mean that much
I’m not a bad guy
If you can keep me honest
You’re just another girl I know can mess around
I’ll call you when I’m back in town
I’m not a bad guy
I’m mostly harmless
Come on, push me down the road
Oh you make me feel so old
I’m not a bad guy
Give me some place to go
I hate to sleep alone
You know I know what you’re thinking of
Will you tell me if you’ve had enough?

Do you wanna hide away in a secret spot?
Drink from a bottle of vodka in the closet
We’ll lock the door, turn off the light
Just you tell me if you want to
I wanna be fun to be around
We can get messed up on some pills I found
All the worst mistakes make all the best stories
You know I’ve had enough but I wanted more
Gonna quit my job just to go on tour
In a hotel lot we’ll sleep outside
For a continental breakfast
But I don’t stand a chance in this cruel world
If you think it’s bad now, it’s only gonna get worse
Tell me how my night will always end
I wanted to black out with some Velcro friends
We could slow it down, and stay inside
But no one ever wants to
I know that all these plans come easily
It’s the follow-through that always gets me
Never get all that I want
But I didn’t think I’d settle for awful
I’m waiting for a chance to start again
I’m waiting for something to happen

Spells & Potions
03:08
|
|||
We turned a light off in the sky
We’ve frozen all the oceans
We stepped across a line
We’re going through the motions
I liked the way we were
We couldn’t turn back time
With all the spells & potions
We blackened out the sun
Melted deserts into glass
It’s cut and dry
Never meant to last
Now we’re going through the motions
We’re tearing down the sky
All the spells and all the potions
Couldn’t change our minds
You can stay where you are
And say you’re finally catching on
You can say what you want
And tell us that we’ve got it all wrong
You can stay where you are
And say you’re finally catching on
All this time
We never knew we got it all wrong
I liked the way we were

The Attraction
04:32

There is a fatal attraction
We feel it taking a toll
This force is not in our control
There is another addiction
We are not getting enough
The world’s too small for the both of us
What does it take to pull you out of me?
A – T – T – R – A – C – T
You get off on the destruction
You want to see the world end
A love so dense it sucks us in
What does it take to rip you out of me?
A – T – T – R – A – C – T
What does it take to make you sick of me?
Opposites attracting
A – T – T – R – A – C – T
I can’t escape the pull of your gravity
Pulling backwards always takes so long
Pulling backwards always takes so long
Pushed together by a force so strong
You can feel the attraction
