Can't Find My Way Home
Come down off your throne
and leave your body alone.
Somebody must change.
You are the reason
I've been waiting so long.
Somebody holds the key.
But I'm near the end and
I just ain't got the time
And I'm wasted and
I can't find my way home.
Come down on your own
and leave your body alone.
Somebody must...

Miracle of Love
from Forever Burned (2003)
She holds a key to the room down there
And I, I will follow, but I'll never fall in
Yeah, we'll suffer for nothing, and we'll never forgive

A young girl, unchained
Come back here now
I know you're somewhere still alive
Strong behind your young girl...

You Fucking People Make Me Sick - My Father Will Guide Me Up a Rope to the Sky (2010)
Now diamonds are falling,
(?..) In the sky.
Obsessions being children
they are let out in the light
they are screaming,
they are polluting,
they are demanding,
they are alive.
These wrong feelings,
they are calling
the red leopard of time.
I love you. I need you.
Oh show me how to shine.
I love you. Your flow...
