Saint 03:09
God laid me in a manger God made me a saint God laid me in a manger God made me a saint I suddenly become revealing Alas I'm just a bastard son God laid me in a manger But I ain't no fucking chosen one I wander east like a stranger You sent me off to find my own I wander east like a stranger You sent me off with seed to sow And I sowed from the dusk till' the morning Alas I'm still a bastard son God laid me in a manger And I wander with my robes undone Oh you looked so fine... Oh you looked so fine Oh you looked divine I want to take my time... I want to take my time I want to make you mine... mine I loiter the south for a danger You sent me off to die some place I loiter in hell for a danger You sent me off to spite my face But nothing burns me more than the feeling That I'll always be your bastard son God laid me in a manger But I ain't no fucking chosen one Oh you looked so fine... Oh you looked so fine Oh you looked divine I want to take my time... I want to take my time I want to make you mine... mine God laid me in a manger God made me a saint God laid me in a manger God made me a saint And I tried to find the proof of your treason but... Who gives a fuck about the bastard son God laid me in a manger At least I'm not the only one God laid me in a manger At least I'm not the only one

Stillborn 04:03
Come on wish me a way Come on wish me a way... Stillborn Come on wish me a way Come on wish me a way like I know you should So bury these hands in midnight oil Bury these hands until you've got me good And you got my lies... Wrapped around your tongue But you got my eyes Oh you got my eyes... Dig your nails right through Come on wish me a way Come on wish me a way... Stillborn Come on wish me a way Like I know you should So bury these hands in midnight oil Bury those hands until you got me good And you got my lies... Wrapped around your tongue But you got my eyes Oh you got my eyes... Dig your nails right through Come on wish me a way... Come on wish me a way But you got my eyes Oh you got my eyes... Dig your nails right through

Bliss 04:12
So tie me to the roof again You know that I don't play pretend You can count on me to bow and bend... when you find me at a loss And even though the sawder shows I'll sink beneath the sound below You'll never even hear me moan... when you nail me to the cross Oh what is this? My tender kiss And my humble fist contained in bliss And I don't want to lay you down But you know that I can't bear the sound So I'll pucker up and turn around... when you find me at a loss And even though the sound remains It never seems to sound the same So tie me to that old refrain... when you nail me to the cross Oh what is this? My tender kiss And my humble fist contained in bliss Your heart is empty Your soul is a farse You wait for your love child You wait for your newborn son with the windows down And your hands came down What a burning sound... When your hands came down... when you fists came down Was the silence in the crowd Oh what is this? My tender kiss And my humble fist contained in bliss
