from the album "The Strange Case Of..."
LOVE BITES (SO DO I)
Don't listen what your girlfriend says, she reads those magazines that say you fail the test, you don't have what she needs.I'll slither like a viper and get you by the neck, I know a thousand ways to help you forget about her.
That bitch can eat her heart out.
Love bites, but so do I.
My lips are pale and vicious, you're foaming at the mouth, you've suffered in the darkness, I'll suck the pain right out.
So come and taste the reason I'm nothing like the rest, I'll kiss you in a way you'll never forget about me.
That chick can eat her heart out.
Love bites, but so do I.
It tucks you in and kicks you down, it chews you up and spits you out,
It messes with your sanity by twisting all your thoughts around.
They say it's blind, they say it waits, but every time it seals your fate,
And now it's got you by the balls, it won't let go until you fall.
I was down and I got up, I said, 'Hey love, I've had enough.'
I found pleasure without pain, my soul you'll never take.
Love bites, but so do I.
MZ. HYDE
In the daylight, I'm your sweetheart, your goody-two-shoes, prude is a work of art.But you don't know me, and soon you won't forget, bad as can be, you know I'm not so innocent.
Better beware, I go bump in the night, devil-may-care with a lust for life,
And I know you can't resist this, you know you are so addicted, boy you better run for your life.
Welcome to the nightmare in my head, say hello to something scary, the monster in your bed, just give in and you won't be sorry.
Welcome to my other side, hello, it's Mz. Hyde.
I can be the bitch, I can play the whore, or your fairytale princess, who could ask for more?
A touch of wicked, a pinch of risqué, good girl gone bad, my poison is your remedy.
Better be scared, better be afraid, now that the beast is out of her cage,
And I know you want to risk it, you know you are so addicted, boy you better run for your life.
Welcome to the nightmare in my head, say hello to something scary, the monster in your bed, just give in and you won't be sorry.
Welcome to my evil side, hello, it's Mz. Hyde.
I'm the spider crawling down your spine, underneath your skin.
I will gently violate your mind before I tuck you in.
Put on the blindfold, there's no way to be sure which girl you'll get tonight.
(It's me, Lzzy, I swear.)
I MISS THE MISERY
I miss the misery.I've been a mess since you stayed, I've been a wreck since you changed.
Don't let me get in your way, I miss the lies and the pain, the fights that keep us awake.
I'm telling you, I miss the bad things, the way you hate me, I miss the screaming, the way that you blame me.
Miss the phone calls when it's your fault, I miss the late nights, don't miss you at all.
I like that kick in the face and the things you do to me.
I love the way that it hurts; I don't miss you, I miss the misery.
I've tried but I just can't take it, I'd rather fight than just fake it (cause I like it rough).
You know that I've had enough, I dare you to call my bluff, can't take too much of a good thing.
I'm telling you, I miss the bad things, the way you hate me, I miss the screaming, the way that you blame me.
Miss the phone calls when it's your fault, I miss the late nights, don't miss you at all.
I like that kick in the face and the things you do to me.
I love the way that it hurts; I don't miss you, I miss the misery.
Just know that I'll make you hurt, when you tell me you'll make it work.
(I miss the lies and the pain, what you did to me, I'd rather fight all night than watch the TV.)
I hate that feeling inside, you tell me how hard you'll try, love when we're at our worst, I miss the misery.
I miss the bad things, the way you hate me, I miss the screaming, the way that you blame me.
I miss the rough sex, leaves me a mess, I miss the feeling, the pains in my chest.
Miss the phone calls when it's your fault, I miss the late nights, don't miss you at all.
I like that kick in the face and the things you do to me.
I love the way that it hurts; I don't miss you, I miss the misery.
FREAK LIKE ME
I'm on the train that's pulling the sick and twisted, making the most of the ride before we get arrested.We're all wasted and we're not going home tonight.
Covered in black, we lack the social graces, just like an animal we crawl out of our cages.
They can't tame us, so if you're one of us, get on the bus.
If you're a freak like me, wave your flag, if you're a freak like me, get off your ass.
It's our time now to let it all hang out.
So shout if you're a freak like me, you were born to burn, this is no disease, you don't need a cure.
It's our time now to come out, if you're a freak like me.
We're underground but we will not surrender, we're gonna give them something to remember,
So write your name in gasoline and set that shit on fire.
If you're a freak like me, wave your flag, if you're a freak like me, get off your ass.
It's our time now to let it all hang out.
So shout if you're a freak like me, don't apologise; they can't hold you down, you were born to rise.
It's our time now to come out, if you're a freak like me.
Are you a freak like me?
BEAUTIFUL WITH YOU
I stare at the girl in the mirror, t-shirt, torn up jeans, no beauty queen,But the way that you see me, you get underneath me and all my defences just fall away.
I am beautiful with you, even in the darkest part of me, I am beautiful with you, you make it feel the way it's supposed to be.
You're here with me, you show me this and I believe I am beautiful with you.
I stand naked before you now, no walls to hide behind, so here am I.
You see all of my scars, still here you are, I bare my soul and I'm not afraid.
I am beautiful with you, even in the darkest part of me, I am beautiful with you, you make it feel the way it's supposed to be.
You're here with me, you show me this and I believe I am beautiful with you.
I've been the strong one for so long, but I was wrong,
Doesn't make you weak if you're needing someone, I'm not holding back and I know what I want.
I am beautiful with you, you want me for myself, you get me like no one else, I am beautiful with you.
IN YOUR ROOM
Let me in your room, I've seen the rest of you, but I know there's something more in your room.I'm right outside your door, show me things you've never shown before.
A few pictures from your past, and those walls you painted black, and the secrets that you keep under your bed.
All you have to do is let me in your room, you can be yourself, you don't have to hide from me, I won't tell.
I know everyone you've ever trusted has let you down, and you don't want to come out and show me
A few pictures from your past, and those walls you painted black, and the secrets that you keep under your bed.
All you have to do is let me in your room, you know every part of me, I let you in, I let you see,
All the dark and every corner of my room, let me do that for you.
And tell me all about your past, why you painted those walls black,
Baby, it's alright, you're safe in here with me, open up so I can see.
A few pictures from your past and those walls you painted black, and the secrets that you keep under your bed,
An unopened letter from your dad, a poster of your favourite band, it don't matter, I'll take every part of you,
All you have to do is let me in your room.
BREAK IN
Put your lighter in the air and lead me back home, when it's all said and done I'll follow the echoes.I hear you night after night calling out my name, and I find myself running to meet you.
I didn't want to escape from the bricks that I laid down.
You are the only one, the only one that sees me, trusts me and believes me.
You are the only one, the only one that knows me, and in the dark you show me.
Yeah, it's perfectly reckless, damn, you leave me defenceless, so break in.
You let me fall apart without letting go, then you pick up the pieces and you make me whole.
I didn't want to escape from the bricks that I laid down.
You are the only one, the only one that sees me, trusts me and believes me.
You are the only one, the only one that knows me, and in the dark you show me.
Yeah, it's perfectly reckless, damn, you leave me defenceless, so break in,
And take everything I have, til there is nothing left, until it's just your voice in my head,
And when the lights come on, you see me as I am, you're still inside me.
ROCK SHOW
Little girl, you like it loud, come alive in the middle of a crowd.You want to scream, you want to shout, get excited when the lights go down
At the rock show, you'll be right in the front row, heart and soul, they both know it's where you got to be.
Little girl, there you are, all the lighters looking just like stars.
Sing along, feel the sound, take a ride on the hands of the crowd.
And here it comes, the moment when you know you'll never be the same again.
Power chord, you see the light, you found your place in the world tonight
At the rock show, you'll be right in the front row, heart and soul, they both know it's where you got to be.
At the rock show, getting high on the solo, so what if it's crazy, that's gonna be me.
This goes out to anyone whose heart beats like a kick drum when a bitchin riff comes,
Knows the words to every line, every time and you know you got to go and get some, get pumped, find yourself and lose it
At the rock show, I'm looking at the front row, heart and soul, we both know it's where we got to be.
At the rock show, we're reaching for the high notes, so what if we're crazy, you're coming with me.
So what if it's crazy, it's where we got to be, at the rock show.
DAUGHTERS OF DARKNESS
We came to battle, baby, we came to win the war, we won't surrender til we get what we're looking for.We're blowing out our speakers, there goes the neighbourhood, a little scissor-happy, little miss understood.
We can turn you on or we will turn on you.
Daughters of darkness, sisters insane, a little evil goes a long, long way.
We stand together, no, we're not afraid, we'll live forever, daughters of darkness.
We're all survivors somehow, we just broke out the pack, and I don't need no dog tag, my name is on my back.
We can turn you on or we can turn on you.
Daughters of darkness, sisters insane, a little evil goes a long, long way.
We stand together, no, we're not afraid, we'll live forever, daughters of darkness.
Never down, never out, playing hard, living loud, keeping up with the boys, making out, making noise.
And you better get me home before the sun comes up.
YOU CALL ME A BITCH LIKE IT'S A BAD THING
You took me to your little crib, guess it must have been a big deal.Got me starring in your wet dream, now it's time to get real.
I'm not looking for love, no, not today, but you call me up and have the nerve to say, 'See you next Tuesday.'
You call me a bitch like it's a bad thing, you call me a freak like that means something.
Can't get your way so you're sulking, I think we know the rest, but get it off your chest.
I don't give a shit, I love it when you call me a bitch like it's a bad thing.
You show up everywhere I go, get a grip, you're acting so weird.
I don't need your Jäger bombs, I think I can take it from here.
You got to learn to leave when the party ends, and I don't really care what you tell your friends, tell me again.
You call me a bitch like it's a bad thing, you call me a freak like that means something.
Can't get your way so you're angry, I think we know the rest, but get it off your chest.
I don't give a shit, I love it when you call me a bitch.
I think you hate me cause you want me, you only want what you can't have.
I'm just being who I want to be, but you can't deal with that.
You call me a bitch like it's a bad thing, you call me a freak like that means something.
Can't get your way so you're so pissed off, I think we know the rest, but get it off your chest.
I don't give a shit, I love it when you call me a bitch like it's a bad thing.
AMERICAN BOYS
Friday night boys and their PBR, chasing Jack, getting wrecked in small town bars.Big city roller in NYC, you're a sharp dressed man just like ZZ.
Harley-riding biker in a leather jacket, I like riding bitch, sitting on the back.
Pretty boys at the university, watching them walk in their Levi jeans.
I can't help but fall, God bless them all.
American boys, got to love them, God I need them, God I want them, they're my drug of choice.
American boys, want to slay them, want to lay them, want to play them, they're my favourite toys, American boys.
Metalhead boys in the back of a Camaro, banging to Metallica on the radio.
From an all-star stud to a punk like you, we got so many flavours that I just can't choose.
They rock the world of this American girl.
American boys, got to love them, God I need them, God I want them, they're my drug of choice.
American boys, want to slay them, want to lay them, want to play them, they're my favourite toys, American boys.
I've been everywhere and nothing compares, ain't nothing like them, rock me like a American boy.
Come on, make your move, do what you do.
HERE'S TO US
We could just go home right now, or maybe we could stick around for just one more drink.Get another bottle out, let's shoot the shit, sit back down for just one more drink.
Here's to us, here's to love, all the times that we fucked up.
Here's to you, fill the glass, cause the last few days have kicked my ass.
So let's give them hell, wish everybody well, here's to us.
Stuck it out this far together, put our dreams through the shredder, let's toast cause things got better.
And everything could change like that, and all these years go by so fast, but nothing lasts forever.
Here's to us, here's to love, all the times that we messed up.
Here's to you, fill the glass, cause the last few nights have kicked my ass.
If they give you hell, tell them go fuck themselves, here's to us.
Here's to all that we kissed and to all that we missed, to the biggest mistakes that we just wouldn't trade,
To us breaking out without us breaking down, to whatever's coming our way.
Here's to us, here's to love, all the times that we fucked up.
Here's to you, fill the glass, cause the last few days have kicked my ass.
So let's give them hell, wish everybody well.
Here's to us, here's to love, all the times that we messed up.
Here's to you, fill the glass, cause the last few nights have kicked my ass.
If they give you hell, tell them go fuck themselves, here's to us.
DON'T KNOW HOW TO STOP
Headlights, red lights, got it in my sights, nothing's in my way.No sound, hush now, push the pedal down, got no time to waste.
It's a long way home, you just crossed a borderline; when I say go, you know you better hold on tight.
I don't know how to stop, I give it all I've got, it's like my brakes are shot.
I got to have too much, I don't know how to stop, gets crazy but so what?
You know it's what you want, so give it up and don't be scared of how good it feels.
One speed, full speed, that is all I need, they can eat my dust.
Hell yeah, rock on, will you come along, do I have your trust?
It's a long way down if you're getting this high, when I say now, you had better hold on tight.
I don't know how to stop, I give it all I've got, it's like my brakes are shot.
I got to have too much, I don't know how to stop, gets crazy but so what?
You know it's what you want, so give it up and don't be scared of how good it feels.
Tell me how good it feels, you know you don't want me to, I don't know how to stop.
Now that I'm here with you, here's what were gonna do, you know you don't want me to.
PRIVATE PARTS
Baby, forgive me, did I do something wrong? (I don't want to talk, can't we just let it go?)What could be so bad that you'd leave me hanging on? (I'm not doing time, this is not the scene of a crime.)
I lay in bed at night contemplating why the hell you got to keep me waiting.
Every time I try to get a little closer, you shut down and the conversation's over.
I'm right here but you leave me in the dark, show me your private parts.
Give it up, baby, what are you afraid of? Love sucks when you don't know what it's made of.
We get naked but I can't undress your heart, show me your private parts.
I can't remember the last time that this felt real. (I would have cut you out if I didn't love you.)
And how can you blame me for feeling the way I feel? (I'm not blaming you, I'm just trying to figure it out.)
I can take a little hesitating, I'll wait forever if it's worth the waiting.
Every time I try to get a little closer, you shut down and the conversation's over.
I'm right here but you leave me in the dark, show me your private parts.
Give it up, baby, what are you afraid of? Love sucks when you don't know what it's made of.
We get naked but I can't undress your heart, show me your private parts.
They say that silence is gold but I think that's a lie, you think I already know but I can't read your mind.
HATE IT WHEN YOU SEE ME CRY
I hate it when you see me cry, your t-shirt soaked through from my eyes,When I'm not as tough as I should be and you see the softest part of me, I hate it when you see me cry.
I hate it when I let you down, when your smile turns around,
And I know I'm supposed to be the one that says, 'Babe, count on me,' I hate it when I let you down.
I'm your rock and roll Joan of Arc, the queen of broken hearts, I'm here to save the world, but who will save Supergirl?
What if I'm weak and I need you tonight? I hate it when you see me cry.
I hate it that I need you now, to hold my hair, to hear me out.
If I wake up on the bathroom floor, will you still want me in the morning, babe, I need you now.
from the EP "ReAniMate 2.0: The CoVeRs eP"
DISSIDENT AGGRESSOR
(Stabbing and bawling and punching and crawling.)Grand canyons of space and time universal, my mind is subjected to all.
Stab, bawl, punch, crawl! Hooks to my brain are well in.
Stab, bawl, punch, crawl! I know what I am, I'm Berlin.
Through cracked blackened memories of unit dispersal, I face the impregnable wall.
Stab, bawl, punch, crawl! Hooks to my brain are well in.
Stab, bawl, punch, crawl! I know what I am, I'm Berlin.
Exploding, reloading, this quest never ending until I give out my last breath.
I'm stabbing and bawling, I'm punching and crawling, hooks to my brain are well in.
I'm stabbing and bawling, I'm punching and crawling, I know what I am, I'm Berlin.
GET LUCKY
Like the legend of the phoenix all ends with beginnings, what keeps the planet spinning, the force from the beginning.We've come too far to give up who we are, so let's raise the bar and our cups to the stars.
She's up all night til the sun, I'm up all night to get some, she's up all night for good fun, I'm up all night to get lucky.
We're up all night 'til the sun, we're up all night to get some, we're up all night for good fun, we're up all night to get lucky.
The present has no rhythm, your gift keeps on giving, what is this I'm feeling, if you want to leave I'm with it.
We've come too far to give up who we are, so let's raise the bar and our cups to the stars.
She's up all night til the sun, I'm up all night to get some, she's up all night for good fun, I'm up all night to get lucky.
We're up all night til the sun, we're up all night to get some, we're up all night for good fun, we're up all night to get lucky.
SHOOT TO THRILL
All you women who want a man off the street, don't know which way you want to turn,Just keep coming and put your hand out to me, cause I'm the one who's gonna make you burn.
I'm gonna take you down, so don't you fool around, I'm gonna pull it, pull the trigger.
Shoot to thrill, play to kill, too many women, too many pills.
Shoot to thrill, play to kill, I got my gun at the ready, gonna fire at will.
Like evil I get under your skin, just like a bomb that's ready to blow,
Cause I'm illegal, I got everything that all you women might need to know.
I'm gonna take you down, so don't you fool around, I'm gonna pull it, pull the trigger.
Shoot to thrill, play to kill, too many women, too many pills.
Shoot to thrill, play to kill, I got my gun at the ready, gonna fire at will.
Cause I shoot to thrill and I'm ready to kill, I can't get enough, I can't get my fill,
Cause I shoot to thrill, play to kill, shoot you down.
HELL IS FOR CHILDREN
They cry in the dark so you can't see their tears, they hide in the light so you can't see their fears.Forgive and forget, all the while love and pain become one and the same in the eyes of a wounded child.
Because hell is for children, and you know that their little lives can become such a mess.
Hell is for children, and you shouldn't have to pay for your love with your bones and your flesh.
It's all so confusing, this brutal abusing, they blacken your eyes and then apologise.
Be daddy's good girl and don't tell mommy a thing,
Be a good little boy and you'll get a new toy, tell Lzzy you fell off the swing.
Because hell is for children, and you know that their little lives can become such a mess.
Hell is for children, and you shouldn't have to pay for your love with your bones and your flesh.
GOLD DUST WOMAN
Rock on, gold dust woman, take your silver spoon and dig your grave.Heartless challenge, pick your path and I'll pray.
Wake up in the morning, see your sunrise, lovers go down.
Lousy lovers pick their prey but they'll never cry out loud.
Well, did she make you cry, make you break down, shatter your illusions of love?
And is it over now, do you know how to pick up the pieces and go home?
Rock on, ancient queen, follow those who pale in your shadow.
Rulers make bad lovers, you better put your kingdom up for sale.
Well, did she make you cry, make you break down, shatter your illusions of love?
And is it over now, do you know how to pick up the pieces and go home?
Hey, pale shadow of a woman.
