It's a boy she said, as she looked down cradled in her arms her newborn infant.
What lies ahead, challenges await the boy, but you'll change the world she said.
He said,
I'll be, I'll do what I need to,
I'll rise and fall, and grown, and fall in love.
An injection, miracle of health, vaccines for your protection.
An inspection, in good health this boys ready to start his mission.
You'll change the world.

My Annabelle

She said subtle my lips, does the pucker help to catch your eye?
If I bite 'em like this, tell me what you can't deny.
The want that you show is the love that I know.
A trophy to you is the love that I know.
Oh what does she know, she's just sixteen and she's ready to go.
Oh gonna take it slow, while I hit rock bottom from this rock hard blow.
A passionate kiss, the term seems to validate the thought.
If he words it like this, it's just what I've been taught.
This virgin so tight, is the arc of your night,
But the spark that you light is the arc of my life.
Oh what does she know, she's just sixteen and she's ready to go.
Oh gonna take it slow, while I hit rock bottom from this rock hard blow.
Now spread your legs little girl,
And let me in.
My Annabelle,
Let me in.
Oh what does she know, she's just sixteen and she's ready to go.
Oh gonna take it slow, while I hit rock bottom from this rock hard blow.
Oh what does she know, she's just sixteen and she's ready to go.
Oh gonna take it slow, while I hit rock bottom from this rock hard blow.
Now spread your legs little girl,
And let me in.
My Annabelle.
It's not a crime my Annabelle.

With a Kiss

Suffocating like it's 1968 the paramedics were never called.
"This is a non-emergency" they say, "Suffocate, suffocate."
I awaken you with a kiss, this silent gesture hints to you the hell behind these lips.
I'm not afraid to speak to you, but these somber doctor's words have got me shakin' in my boots.
Suffocating like it's 1968 the paramedics were never called.
"This is a non-emergency" they say, "Suffocate, suffocate."
Oh Annabelle you're by my side, lips sewn shut it's you who knows the secrets that they hide.
In, out, in, it's a struggle to get air, but I'm not afraid to breathe because I know you're always there.
Suffocating like it's 1968 the paramedics were never called.
"This is a non-emergency" they say, "Suffocate, suffocate."
Suffocating like it's 1968 the paramedics were never called.
"This is a non-emergency" they say, "Suffocate, suffocate."
You can't imagine how it feels,
I can't imagine how it feels for you,
I can't imagine anything when I'm suffocating.
I try to do my best, when I'm at my worst.
Who's here to clean this mess, when I'm suffocating.
I'm suffocating,
With a kiss.
I'm suffocating,
With a kiss.
The wine is kicking in,
The alcohol liberates the secrets from within.
You sit and wonder why, this sentencing feels like the treaty of Versailles.
We'll end it off with a kiss, just like before I killed your dreams,
Let's just sit back and reminisce.
Oh Annabelle,
Suffocating like it's 1968 the paramedics were never called.
"This is a non-emergency" they say, "Suffocate, suffocate."

So Far Away

Take a drive through the desert to clear our minds.
Beyond dry air there's a place their words will never find us.
Crimson red on the shirt I coughed upon.
Heat the spoon for escape but it's never gone.
I pray the moon will save us but it's never gone.
I find myself so far away.
But it's still so close, and it's still not named.
Darkness falls upon the two of us we cry.
We share this pain, unique, just you and I.
I find myself so far away.
Living with this pain, that's yet to name me.
I want out
I can't escape, I can't escape.
This pain it runs our minds.
I can't escape, I can't escape.
This pain it runs our minds.
This pain it runs our minds.
This pain it runs our minds.

Open Fire

Into the stream they drop the body, watch the victim drift away.
It's claimed the murder was an accident, and still is today.
Liar, liars
Liar, liars
Open fire, watch the villains take their fall.
Shots are fired, prey to pierce the skin of them all.
The wound is one the doctor has never seen the likes of before.
(The doctor and the patient come to the same conclusion: the only time said patient was ever exposed to virus cells was once, and that was a shot mandatory from the government.)
Liar, liars (this retribution begs for more).
Liar, liars
Open fire, watch the villains take their fall.
Shots are fired, prey to pierce the skin of them all.
(and they will fall)
And your mother, and your father, and your lover, and all others, they will fall.
My Annabelle,
Mama said, I'd change the world.
My Annabelle,
Mama said, I'd change the world.
Open fire, watch the villains take their fall.
Shots are fired, prey to pierce the skin of them all.
Open fire
Open fire
Mama said, I'd change the world.

Whispers

Skin to skin her tolerance is wearing thin.
A mean disease it lives swimming in her blood stream tonight.
Take my hand there is nothing left but love.
It feels as gravity has got her down on her knees.
Bones so shattered thanks a lot for the symptoms left with this disease.
Voice so shattered barely whispers make it through these teeth.
Take my hand there is nothing left but love.
Close your eyes pretend that we changed the world.
Take my hand there is nothing left but love.
Close your eyes pretend that we changed the world.
My Annabelle, just give me one more night with you.
You rise and I fall.
My Annabelle,
I'll miss you.
I'll miss you, my Annabelle.

End Game

I've seen it all, I've seen young boys grow old.
I've seen millions die before their time,
But how could I have known.
I spread my love, I spread myself and more there of.
I spread this killer, to all of the above.
If you'd known the symptoms of my love and this disease
Would you still have stood by me.
If you'd known the symptoms of my love and this disease
Would you still have stood by me.
If I'd known the way that things would turn out to be
I would have done this long ago.
Mama always said I'd change the world.
Mama always said I'd change the world.
Mama always said I'd change the world.
If I only knew I'd change the world.
(All along I knew I'd kill that girl
And all along I knew I'd change the world.)
