[06:39.56]But loved
[06:40.91998]You live long enough to hear the sounds of guns
[06:43.87]Long enough to find yourself screaming every night
[06:47.23]Live long enough to see your friends betray you
[06:51.04]For years I've been strapped unto this altar
[06:54.27]Now I only have three minutes and counting
[06:57.38]I just wish the tide would catch me first and give me
[07:01.01]A death I always longed for "

[08:35.33]Everyone must bury their own
[08:38.39]No pack to bury the heart of stone
[08:41.69]Now he`s home in hell serves him well
[08:44.75]Slain by the bell tolling for his farewell
[08:48.56]The morning dawned upon his altar
[08:51.74]Remains of the dark passion play
[08:55.11]Performed by his friends without shame
[08:58.36]Spitting on his grave as they came
[09:01.71]Get away run away fly away
[09:04.7]Lead me astray to dreamer's hideaway
[09:08.48]I cannot cry 'cause the shoulder cries more
[09:11.37]I cannot die I a whore for this cold world
[09:15.5]Forgive me I have but two faces One for the world One for God save me
[09:21.39]I cannot cry 'cause the shoulder cries more I cannot die I a whore for this cold world
[09:35.71]"Today in the year of our Lord 2005 Tuomas was called from the cares of the world He stopped crying at the end of each beautiful day The music he wrote had too long been without silence He was found naked and dead With a smile in his face a pen and 1000 pages of erased text " Save me
