Starry River (Zvyozdnaya reka)

A starry river of the sky...
Parting on the map...
I love you but for the time being
"Farewell" I say, "farewell"
I am the one who burns bridges
And I don't hear prayers
I am frightened to come down
To the ground from proud heights

In the age of sorrow and losses
We are both unhappy
The light of earthly icon-lamps may go out
But not the stars
We go away from ourselves
Into bad weather and growth
But the fate is determined
By the stars, by the stars

Even the starry ocean
Is unstable today
Our cosmic love affair
Is over, is over...
A starry river of the sky...
Parting on the map...
I love you but for the time being
"Farewell" I say, "farewell"

Those lucid eyes of yours
Are beautiful like stars
Days and voices may fade out
But not the stars...
A starry river of the sky...
Parting on the map...
I love you but for the time being
"Farewell" I say, "farewell"

Went to a garden party but found no one was there
Got another invitation but no one told me where
And so I went down to the local to drink another night away
And then I received another invitation
That I should have got yesterday.
Well that night I had one too many
And could not see straight ahead
And when I awoke that very next morning
I was in another bed
But there was no one there to hold me
Or to even make my whole heart beat
And so although I must have been invited
My whole world was still not complete
Well I left that bed at mid day with no one else within sight
And although I should have left a little note
I wasn't quite sure just what to write
And on walking down that empty street
I just thought what will I now do
And then I got another invitation though I just don't know from who.
Well that night I had another drink or two
To help see me through the night
And then again I read that invitation
But my name was not within sight
And although I could have went along to wherever it may be
It was not wrote down where I should go
And so they won't be expecting me
Yes I went to a garden party but no one else was there
And then I got another invitation but no one told me where
And so I went down to the local to drink another night away
And then I received another invitation that I should have got yesterday.

(Love is) A Sad, Sad Song

I play my song's with broken chord's
In haunted halls of humbled lord's
I try to conjure music that moved you before

You and I were thick as thieve's
Thier court we held but would not heed
Now our happiness fade's with the leaves


Pre-chorus
We use to be people who sang along
When the days were short and life was long
They can still make heart's break, These simple song's


Chorus
Such a sad song
Love is a sad, sad song
Such a sad song
Love is a sad, sad song

My deamon inside must have spoke to
Sweet angel that lay beyond the blue
Your eyes were a trap I fell into

In my tower, on I rave
Of the heart I stole, and the one I freely gave
Of the friendship lost, The love I could not save

Chorus

In these hall's my chord's ring true
With passion that tore us into
I still yearn to play these song's for you

Chorus

Another story written down
In the pages of our lives
Talkin bout how we laughed
Until we cried
We said we'd live until we died
But who's to say when
This pen will ever run dry

All i'm trying to do
Is just live for
Tonight
All i'm asking of you
Is just live for
tonight

We put some miles on
These broken soles of ours
We had some falls
Got some bruises
And some scars

They remind us
Of the lessons
We had to learn

And now we're older
But we're still learning
What it is to burn

All i'm trying to do
Is just live for
Tonight
All i'm asking of you
Is just live for
tonight

Bridge/Solo

All I'm trying to do
Is just live for
Tonight
All I'm asking of you
Is just live for
Tonight

Random acts of vengence
just so hate can breed
Those of us who hurt ourselves
are victums of our greed

A pergatory of permanance
a place to place your brain
Because once you look inside yourself
you'll never be the same

Poetic propoganda
to make you think your free
Don't believe a word you heard
unless it came from me

Self inflicted sorrow
lies consume our lives
Life repeats itself
and in the end everybody dies

Apcolyptic exile
ashes of pain
Death, deatn, death
F**k the world and all the rest

I create
I destroy
I recreate
and destroy again

I am the king of the unwanted
I want nothing that I'll ever need
I have nothing that I'll ever want
And that nothing is my everthing

And you lie for what you lack
You have everything and give it back

I've got big bruised black marks
When I go down I go down hard
I've got nothing but that's alot
And I'll break when I'm dropped

And you lie for what you lack
You have everything and give it back

I hold the key to misery
Give it time to soak in
Come with me and you can see
The unwanted never win

And you lie for what you lack
You have everything and give it back
And you lie for what you lack
I can't wait to see you crack

I know that I'm not
What you wanted of me
I wanted to heal
You want me to bleed
I wanted to feel
Watching you go
I needed to find
What you needed to know

And I was running on brainwaves
Trying to stay alive
But I couldn't stay away
Long enough to find

I want to be what your are
I want to see right through your heart
I want to feel just like you
I want to die then I want to kill you

I want you for always
Never again
I really mean that
When I can pretend
I practice faking
With nothing to show
I wanted to want to
But now I don't know

And I was running on brainwaves
Trying to stay alive
But I couldn't stay away
Long enough to find

I want to be what you are
I want to see right through your heart
I want to feel just like you
I want to die then I want to kill you
I want to see what you are
I want to be what's inside your heart
I want to kill just like you
I want to die so that I can feel you

I can see your light, it burns for all to see
It shelters you from pain and agony
I can't see your light, it burns to bright to see
It brings me only pain,and takes me to my knees.

Life, a living lake of ecstasy, and I don't want to see, your life unwind, another fantasy, and its not meant to be, but its your life.

And so we see who we are, and we know we must leave
Son take a break,
for its your soul, we must retrieve.

You embody hate, you're full of virtue and hate
but you will suffer, yes you will suffer
we all will suffer, we dirty lovers
Its time to pay.

So do you know it yet?
The way I feel it, the constant shadow
An emphatic depth
A triumpic death.

Heritage comes from around the corner,
you think that i'm wrong its a mental disorder.
So come on let's go outside and see,
another reckless tragety.

That's why you hate me,
you tell me you hate me,
say why you hate me now.

So i'm sorry to tell you, but want you to know,
your stupid pompasity has got to go.
So tell me why you can't leave me be,
another reckless tragety.

Tell me you love me,
I wish you would love me,
say that you love me know.

Sorid creations are fit to whether,
I know why my life can repose from a letter.
I'ts a tasteless mirage by roadside sign,
A lovely distraction to keep mind.

You ripped the strings out from my heart,
you could have had it from the start.
You never knew which way to go,
but really how could you have known.
I'll bring you with me to the skies,
so you can lose me in your eyes.
That's why I wrote this song for you,
that's why I wrote this song for you.

Now I can see what you do to me,
and even though you are carefree,
the time has come to let me know how you feel.

You ripped the strings out from my heart,
you could have had it from the start.
You never knew which way to go,
but really how could you have known.
I'll bring you with me to the skies,
so you can lose me in your eyes.
And so I wrote this song for you,
and now there's nothing left to do,
but for me to say,
I love you.
