The Distillers
Drain The Blood
I'm living on shattered faith
The kind that likes to restrict your breath
never been a better time than this
suffocate on eternal bliss
In a city
that swells with so much hate
you seem to rise above
and take its place
the heart pumps until it dies
drain the blood,
the heart is wise
All my friends are murder
Hey,
all my bones no marrows in
All these fiends want teenage meat
All my friends are murderers
Away....
I never met a pearl quite like you
who could shimmer and rot at the same time through
there's never been a better time than this
To bite the hand of the frost bitten eminence
All my friends are murder
Hey,
all my bones no marrows in
All these fiends want teenage meat
All my friends are murderers
Away....away......away....
whoa whoa whoa whoa.....
I'm alive in uterine
a star in the dark a new day has dawned
open up and let it flow
I'll make it yours so here we go...
All my friends are murder
Hey,
all my bones no marrows in
All these fiends want teenage meat
All my friends are murderers
Away hes gone away......[till the song ends]

| Dismantle Me | |
|
Distillers - Dismantle Me
I fancy you
But I've been destitute
And all I know dissolved
I could never reundo you
I will always say it's so
I will always speak the truth
Descend into a noose
Could never reundo you
I want to bury you [x2]
Vultures circle around
Feathers float, wings flap, beaks pound
And though my hearts exposed
I could never reundo you
I will always bleed the truth
I will always speak
And know I was sent to cut you loose
I will never reundo you
I want to bury you [x4]
Dismantle me [x4]
It’s warm and humid on Swanson Street
And the air is filled with electricity
And the sky is deeper than a dream
And the sky is deeper than a
Dismantle Me [x3]
And the sky is deeper than a dream [x2]

Distillers - Die on a Rope
Tell me something, tell me something, will I die, will I die on a rope?
Tell me something, tell me something, will I die, will I die?
I wish that you didn't love me no more, I've been dead for years,
I wish that you didn't own me no more, I've been here before.
Tell me something, tell me something, will I die, will I die on a rope?
Tell me something, tell me something, will I die, will I die on a rope?
Tell me something, tell me something, will I die, will I die on a rope?
Tell me something, tell me something, will I die, will I die?
No I won't want to draw the blood from your neck, spill the lies in your bed.
I will give you a holy white rose, cut the tongue from your head.
Tell me something, tell me something, will I die, will I die on a rope?
Tell me something, tell me something, will I die, will I die on a rope?
Tell me something, tell me something, will I die, will I die on a rope?
Tell me something, tell me something, will I die, will I die on a rope?
Tell me something, tell me something, will I die, will I die?
I belong to a line of red scent, teach the heart to reflect.
the wound is wise for primal black eyes theres a scarlet letter in my chest.

| The Gallow Is God | |
|
Distillers - The Gallow is God
Oh how my heart it sings suicide,
Oh how my gallow sinks of black dye.
Oh how my death march brings a tear to your eye,
Oh how the noose it swings when you die.
What a surprise, what is the price, what is the price, what is the price?
What a surprise, what is the price, what is the price, what is the price?
Oh how my heart it splits when you dumb my eyes,
Oh how my gallow sinks of red dye.
Oh how the noose it smiles when you lie,
Oh how my womb it licks when you dig deep inside.
What a surprise, what is the price, what is the price, what is the price?
What a surprise, what is the price, what is the price, what is the price?
Do you do it, oh yeah do you feed it, oh yeah,
Do you sell it, oh yeah, do you need it, oh yeah
In the sun the willows give you shade
Oh, how they hang like guillotine blades in the sun
In the sun the willows give you shade
Oh yeah, how they hang like guillotine blades
In the sun
Like a blade
In the sun
Like a blade

Distillers - Coral Fang
Its come take from the rope
It feels so still I could just die
Its going to reach up inside
Oh how the blood stains well on white
Ooh the coral fang sinking in to make you well
Ooh the coral fang sinking in to make you ill
Its come to rape what you hide
It fills the years with reprise, disgust, disguise
I see burn my own funeral pyre
An from you’re mouth I will rise out
Ooh the coral fang sinking in to make you well
Ooh the coral fang sinking in to make you ill
When the fang sinks in my skin
When the fang sink's down in
Make your eyes white and roll right into him
When the coral stains the skin
Disease is cheap scars are polished clean
Ooh the coral fang sinking to take at will

Holy eyes, I never knew I'd beg down at your feet
Hold on tight, i never knew i'd know much more than this
Open sky, the wave of pain the scent of you is bliss
Hungry eyes, they stare at me, I know, i know
DON'T GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....
Summertime, the taste of saint secrets of perfume mist
Console the mind, I take it in the lips of pink I kiss
Lonely sky, the more you take the more that i give in
Holy eyes, I never knew, I know, I know
DON'T GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....
Hold on to the memory
It's all you got
I know you'll be there
To soak up blood lost
blood lost,
blood lost,
blood lost(fades)
*music interlude*
DON'T GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....
Hold on to the memory
It's all you got
I know you'll be there
To soak up blood lost
Hold on to the memory
It's all you got
I know you'll be there
To soak up blood lost
blood lost
blood lost(fades)
*bass solo:*
hey, hey, hey, yeaaaaah
hey, hey, hey, yeaaaaah
*louder music*
hey, hey, hey, hey, yeaaaaah
hey, hey, hey, yeaaaaah, huhwya!

This is my favorite Distillers song, i'm glad I get to tab it.
I come down like a hurricane sucked up inside
I spit out the suffer, yeah
You say you want a revelation,
Revel in this my lover
You’re free at liberty is this what you want?
Sometimes I wonder…
[Chorus]
There’s a highway to, to the edge, yeah
Once a night you will drive yourself there
At the end of the road you will find the answer
At the end of the road you will drink the fear
I come down like a bloody rain cuts up flesh sky,
Pulse beating under, yeah
Meat petals bloom in a bone garden
Ain’t no god, no ghost gonna save you now
I sell souls at the side of the road
Would you like to take a number
[Chorus]
Take your time, come on, get what you come for don't
Waste my time, come on, get what you come for don't
waste my time, come on, get what you come for don't
waste my time, come on, get what you come for
[Chorus]
I watched you burn in,in the eye of my sun (in the eye of my sun, in the
eye of my sun, yeah, yeah)
I fucked you in, in the eye of my sun (in the eye of my sun, in the eye
of my sun, yeah yeah)
repeat that 3x
yeah, yeah.........

| Love Is Paranoid | |

This is an awesome song.
I step right off the edge
Let the blood rush to my head
I’m going down to where the lucky ones have bled
I lift the veil up to reveal fascination
And if you crave it
Then you know that you are injured
And I’m holding on
And I’m holding on
For what you do to me
Baby there’s no measure
I've taken everything
Now I want to give it
I left the lights on so you stumble in devotion
So easy
So easy
Its left unspoken
And I’m holding on
And I’m holding on
And I’m holding on
And I’m holding on
I’ve come to realize you're the only thing I
I’m falling all the way in
I’m falling all the way in
I’ve come to realize you're the only thing I want
I’m fallen all the way in
I'm fallen
I’m fallen all the way in
I’m fallen all the way in
I’m fallen
I’m fallen all the way in
I’m fallen all the way in
I'm fallen, I'm fallen, I'm fallen
I"ve fallen all the way in....(etc...)

Shoot your gun
Baby I come undone
Shoot your gun
Baby I come undone
Shoot your gun
Baby I come undone
Shoot your gun
I'd do it and do it again
I came down low
I'd do it and do it again
Shoot your gun
Baby now come on
I came down low
I'd do it and do it again
Shoot your gun
Baby I come undone
