Lyrics:

My friends all lost their minds
All twisted mouths entwined
The reach of desperate clawing arms
That drag me down

This home is slipping away
This place is caving in
We all just want to be saved
So come in

My best is all I have
The rest all dressed in black
The silver tongued are in the dark
When I let them drag me down

This home is slipping away
This place is caving in
We all just want to be saved
So come in

This home is slipping away
This place is caving in
We all just want to be saved
So come in

First Light


Chorus
-------------
When it comes down 
to love it seems
Everybody knows that the ends justify the mean

A garden built 
on broken dreams
Love is like a war, and the ends justify the means

Verse
----------------
Some may fight for family
Family and what is right
Righteously for love you battle day and night

You'd cross any border
(Order your troops advance)
Strike with overwhelming force
(For surrender there's no chance )
To occupy her heartland
(Landing her heart)
At any cost
(Cos there's nothing beats the love she got)

Chorus
-------------
When it comes down 
to love it seems
Everybody knows that the ends justify the mean

A garden built 
on broken dreams
(And defended to the last man)
Love is like a war, and the ends justify the means


Verse 
--------------
Peace and good will for all men
(Men devoted to the cause)
Is just a dream we leave to rot
(Garrotte the ones who see the flaws)
And we'll build a better world 
Whatever the cost

Quiet Chorus
----------------
When I sit down
And think I see
Peace'll never come 
While we're fighting for love to be

We're built to propagate our genes
The fittest will survive
And the ends justify the means 

Final Chorus
-------------
When it comes down 
to love it seems
(It's crazy but believe me)
Everybody knows that the ends justify the mean

A garden built 
on broken dreams
(And defended to the last man)
Love is like a war, and the ends justify the means


The Ends Justify The Means

2AM

Call all my demons I ache for their love 
But none of these people know what I’ve done 
I find hard to get close or to look in their eyes 
Because there’s so many secrets hidden in mine 

At night I discover there’s a method to this 
Living my life under cover I become the abyss 
Inside a dark empty prison I learn how to love 
And I am taught how to see beauty in lust 

He won’t let me come down 
My love is sold out 
It’s 2am now run the red lights 
I’m fucked up going crazy 
Too young to save me 
Born in the sin I deliver the night 

Fall on my weapon he aches for its touch 
Like all of the others who pay to feel loved 
It’s like a drug when I’m empty selling my life 
‘Cause when he needs me in his I feel good about mine 

At night I discover there’s a method to me 
Use me like a doll and call me your queen 
I provide you the power that you need to be free 
But never forget that you answer to me 

He won’t let me come down 
My love is sold out 
It’s 2am now run the red lights 
I’m fucked up going crazy 
Too young to save me 
Born in the sin I deliver the night

Latest track to be released from my solo endeavours. Thank you for checking my song out!
