Gray, gray, gray...
She watched her father topple
Mother says I should not be
No fool, I am so smart
Still confused
I'm my on head
Running from reality
Shrinks well they smile at me
Blue thoughts went on to be
A lot of times I hurt
For myself
In my eyes are blood
Red don't go away
Colors of the sun
As I saw life sustain
Oh the blood changes everything
At least it seems that way
Looking with red eyes
Rosey cheeks are gray
Aw come on, yeah, gray!
While you pretend to see
For a sully girl
I throw rocks at which
Tried to talk
To grab the sun
Wash your eyes out then
I surpass myself
I fall can't dig deep
In my eyes are blood
Red don't go away
Colors of the sun
As I saw life sustain
Oh the blood changes everything
At least it seems that way
Looking with red eyes
Rosy cheeks are gray
Aw come on...

Jesus walked again last night
Through the garden with Eve
And they spoke of seduction, corruption
Temptation and defeat
Scoffing at her weakness
I was struck to my knees
And found myself among the apples
And my resistance growing weak
And my faith was faded to apathy
Just keep believing that I'm so free, yeah
And if my eyes go blind
Don't worry, I won't mind
The truth is something they have never seen
Oh, that jaundice moon that filled that sky
And bathed the sacred ground
I wrestled with my angel
And I pinned her to the ground
Gloating at my prowess while I basked in her defeat
I noticed Satan had her by the ankles
And he held her down for me
And my mind was jaded, hypocrisy
Just keep believing
That I'm so free
And if my eyes go blind
Don't worry, I won't mind
They won't believe a thing that they have seen
Reaching for that reddish rose
Eyeing all the thorns
And they slashed my wrist and bled my body
On the killing floor
Ah, that red rose don't smell so sweet no more
And if my eyes go blind
Don't worry, I won't mind
The truth is something they have never seen
Oh, and if my eyes go blind
Don't worry, I won't mind
The truth is something they could never see
I don't believe a thing that they have seen
Oh no, they can't see
My god they cannot see me
No, they won't believe, they won't believe
They won't believe, they won't believe
They can't believe, they can't believe
Oh no, Jesus walked again last night through the garden with me

In your chambers dark
Powers burn
Roulette wheel it slowly turns
Glass coffin filled with fingers duel
Grab the fire
Chorus:
Over the counter
I've got it all
Access to excess respectable
I feel liberated
Never had it all
Over the counter
I've got it all
I don't know limits
No control
Bury the cannon boar the hole
Itchy hand shows the filth
The hell that's false
The blood is burning
(Chorus)
I wait for life
I wait my ride
Right in your face
No....
Gather our children
Lets all give up
Over the counter
I've got it all
(Chorus)
Over the counter
Over the counter...
I've got it all
Yeah....

Well I musta left my soul
Cracked open
Like a door in the night
Seizing the opportunity
While I laid there asleep
And those beggars and thieves
Walked in and they stole
All I'd stored inside
Well I woke to find
The shell of a man
And all I once believed
Stripped Away
Stripped away
Well I sat at Satan's table
And I drank the wine
Feast of revelry
Til my eyes are red and swollen
And my soul was soiled with stains
That just won't come clean
And I tell myself
I am immune as all my dignity is
Stripped away
Stripped away
Well I stared at my own reflection
But those hollow eyes can't be me
And my spirit floats in desperation
Dreams like mine never see
So I reached for you
And draw you near
And pray that you won't be
Stripped away
Stripped away

I can feel the lies burning my skin
Let me show my deepest thoughts locked in
When you fail me you will know I'm there
Cause dreams and lullabies turn to nightmares
You know I care
I would not dare
I'll take my share
And fly away from you
Now these broken walls become my home
They leaded me through broken glass and stone
My hands were cut I'd sooner lose my life
But as the books unfold oh you know I will survive
I'm still alive
I cannot die
This empty tomb
I will you oh you know I will not hide
And I will rise above
And I will rise above
And I will rise above
And I will rise above
Now its time for me to say goodbye
"Oh good bye" yeah
It's time for me to wave to my mother's hand and sigh
I'm still alive
I cannot die
This empty tomb
I will not hide
From you to me don't die
Won't you please just let me be
I will rise above
I will rise above
I will rise above
. . .
