Orchid's Sin 03:46
lyrics

When the frost was on the window sill That morning it was time So I took the path of evil His life would soon be mine You can't say that you could blame me If you knew what I=d been through You could say some people hate me For the things that I could do CHORUS: Ooooo-Let me in Take me from this bible to the valley of sin Oooo-Let me in Been wanderin' forever, don't know who I've been That cold morning in December I woke up black and blue He promised it'd be the last time But my anger only grew I was always a good wife to him He knew that from the start But when I left that winter, I ripped his world apart Chorus BRIDGE: It was not unjust, it's retribution That was his life, karma's solution If I have to pay for these things I've done At least I know this battle's already won LEAD (to Chorus chords) As his flannel shirt got bloody I watched as it sunk in Even though the ground was muddy His grave I dragged him in At ten o'clock a left that town Never to return Not the last time I'll see him In hell, I'm sure we'll burn Chorus ALT CHORUS: Ooooh-Let me in Take me from this man of mine and the mess I'm in (and release me from him) Ooooh-Let me in Been wanderin' forever, don't know who I've been.

His Secret 04:22
lyrics

I don't believe in alibis And I don't especially trust yours I don't like alibis I don't believe yours. Why have you returned Have you come for your things The way you lived Not far from a king And who is woman Is it your new friend Is she the girl In the letters you'd send Try to understand, I loved my sister I don't trust your new wife I don't believe, she's still alive Chorus The pressman said It's a high profile case She's got the money And you a disgrace They say she ran off into the night Changing her name after her flight Try to understand, I trust my sister But I don't trust your excuse I don't believe in psychogenic fugue Instrumental The police said they found her clothes Some of them bloody you said from her nose But I think they were eating One too many snacks that day What they overlooked Could put you away My lawyer said, she'd get me an appeal Your alibi, just can't be real We'll get the jury, and the judge They'll turn around my wicked grudge

Here I Am 04:12
lyrics

If I were to write a novel Would you read it? If I were to paint a picture Would you see it? And if I were to sing and dance In front of you for hours Would you simply walk away Or would you bring me flowers I'm here... Why don't you see me? If I were to run away Would you notice before the pets died If I were to never speak Would you appreciate the silence CHORUS: Here I am Why don't you seem to see me Here I am I can't just be here... When you need me If you need me I'm not convinced that you love me Like you tell the world you do. Is it so they won't judge you Because you're supposed to I'm not on this earth So I can be ignored I've been told that sometimes That I can be a bore BRIDGE: Maybe I'm dead I might as well be Maybe you're deaf and blind and... Maybe not INSTRUMENTAL Chorus

A Tragic Day for a Brussels Sprout 03:01
lyrics

I was born in a farming town Where happy fruits and vegetables grow I was raised to believe in myself And let my bright side show They said, someday if you're lucky You'll be taken away To a place where you'll hopefully be chosen By someone who thinks, you're something special Hopefully, you won't end up frozen I grew up, big and strong My leaves as green as they could be I fulfilled, my first mission I ended up, in your kitchen And now you sit, just looking at me Don't you think, I'm appetizing? --Don't leave me behind Don't through me down your garbage shoot Where vegetables rot, and juice dilutes --Don't leave me behind Don't throw me away, I've waited too long for this day Instrumental I may not be, as sweet as candy But I'm not sour like a lime I may not be the best looking But I won't kill you like strik-en-ine Don't leave me for another day Wrap me up, lock me away Don't leave me here where I'll rot Don't put me back in your pot --Don't leave me behind Don't through me down your garbage shoot Where vegetables rot, and juice dilutes --Don't leave me behind Don't throw me away, I've waited too long for this day Don't leave me, don't leave me, behind.

Come to me Bring the darkness into light Come to me Bring the darkness into light Come to me Come to me Feel the picture in my hands Feel the wind and the grainy sand Feel the rain as it start to fall See the man stare behind the wall Come to me Come to me He's watching her with his dark grey eyes He can hear, her future cries He's rather tall, but not too thin His hair is black with a pointy chin Come to me Come to me Sweet spirits help me decide Sweet spirits won't you confide I need you to help me through You know more than I ever do Come to me Come to me Hear her scream from under his hand See her dragged along the sand I see his knife, so threatening I hear her cry as she starts to sing Come to me Come to me Sweet spirits whisper in my ear Take away her loved ones fears Sweet spirits is she still alive Sweet spirits won't you confide Come to me---come to me Come to me---come to me The silver light flashes through the rain She was left, alone in pain You will find her in a cave If you hurry, her life you'll save Come to me Turn the darkness into light Come to me Turn the darkness into light Come to me Come to me

The Sun in Emily's Sky 03:28
lyrics

Emily thinks and she cries on her bed Thinking of all of the dreams they had She often thinks about running away Nothing left for her anyway CHORUS: She's not the sun She's not the su-n She's not the sun in his sky anymore She's not the sun She's not the su-n She's not the sun in his sky anymore She sometimes thinks it was something she'd done Emily wants bullets in her gun He just wants to be really good friends Does he know this could be her end Chorus BRIDGE: Believe in yourself That's what, they all say Don't give up, the pain will go away We'd all miss you, we all care Just keep talking, won't you share Emily knows she must try to go on Facing her fears as the night goes long She has to find a way to stay alive Being alone for the rest of her life She's not-But she's not alone She's not-Everyone loves her She's not-He's just a jerk Being sad won't make him come back He's not the sun He's not the su-n He's not the sun in her sky anymore He's not the sun He's not the su-n He's not the sun in her sky anymore He's not He's not He's not the sun in her sky--- anymore
