The titanic overture

(Lawless)

Look at my face in the mirror
And I don't understand
Don't feel like a boy and it's not getting clearer
But I don't feel like a man

I'm seventeen and I'm somebody's son
My dad don't know where I stand
'Cause when he looks at me he don't like what he sees

He don't know what I am



The invisible boy

(Lawless)

I was the boy unwanted
A prisoner, I'm born to them
My brother was the one that couldn't do no wrong
And I was there dying in the shadow of him

Red, crimson red
Am I the invisible boy?
Feel the straps 'cross my back
Yeah, I'm the new whipping boy

Who am I?
The orphan son you would never need
Who am I?
'Cause I'm the boy only the mirror sees

Who am I?
The slave you gave just the air I breathe
Who am I?
'Cause I'm the boy only the mirror sees

Oh, I got the same old reruns
Horror movies in my head
And I can't rest, this scares me to death
But if I'm not alive how can I be dead?

Red, crimson red
Am I the invisible boy?
Feel the straps 'cross my back
Yeah, I'm the new whipping boy

Who am I?
The orphan son you would never need
Who am I?
'Cause I'm the boy only the mirror sees

Who am I?
The slave you gave just the air I breathe
Who am I?
'Cause I'm the boy only the mirror sees

Oh, why me? "Why him?"
Can you tell me? "It's confession again?"

"Come talk to me, I see in your eyes
Titanic misery, ashamed that you're alive
I'm the face that you see when the face isn't yours
I'm the mirror, my boy"

Who am I?
The orphan son you would never need
Who am I?
'Cause I'm the boy only the mirror sees

Who am I?
The slave you gave just the air I breathe
Who am I?
'Cause I'm the boy only the mirror sees

Some people never go crazy
What truly boring lives they must lead

Is there no love to shelter me?
Only love, love sets me free
Is there no love to shelter me?
Only love, love sets me free



Arena of pleasure

(Lawless)

I don't know where I'm going
But I can't wait to get there
All I know is I'm just going

I ran away from home last night
Gone forever
I was running for my life

And I've heard the words of what I should be
Live, work, die
I am the orphan of the night

Take me down, I'm coming home
The road to ruins inside the pleasure dome
Take me down, I'm coming home
Arena of pleasures where I belong

I'm in the eye of my rage
Where the hurricane lies
Oh, a storm's in my eyes

And like the beast that's in my soul
I'm the restless child
Aah mama, I'm running for my life

I was sixteen going nowhere
Will I see seventeen alive?
And I was running from the nightmare
I stand at the promised land with fire in my eyes

Take me down, I'm coming home
The road to ruins inside the pleasure dome
Take me down, I'm coming home
Arena of pleasures where I belong

I'm at the crossroad of my destiny and desire
Oh god, what will I be?
And my obsession is the gasoline to feed my fire
Oh, it's burning in me

Don't waste the tears on my wasted years
Mama, I'm outta here

Take me down, I'm coming home
The road to ruins inside the pleasure dome
Take me down, I'm coming home
Arena of pleasures where I belong



Chainsaw Charlie (murders in the new morgue)

(Lawless)

They are poisoned snakes with double tongues
Horney hedgehogs who do their wrong
Deaf men and blind worms, they'll be not seen
They are pawns and rooks for a crimson king

They are a government with a parliament of whores
Can you hear the screams from the fame machine
Down in Chainsaw Charlie's morgue?

Ok boy, now here's your deal
Will you gamble your life?
Sign right here on the dotted line
It's the one you've waited for all of your life

Aah, will it feed my hunger
If I swallow lies right down my throat?
Or will it choke me 'till I'm raw?

And tomorrow when I'm gone
Will they whore my image on?
I'll will my throne away
To a virgin heir and Charlie's slave

Murders, murders in the new morgue
Murders, murders in the new morgue
See old Charlie and the platinum armies
Making me their boy

Murders, murders in the new morgue
Murders, murders in the new morgue
He'll make ya scream for the cash machine
Down in Chainsaw Charlie's morgue

We'll sell your flesh by the pound you'll go
A whore of wrath just like me
We'll sell ya wholesale, we'll sell your soul
Strap on your sixstring and feed our machine

Aah, will it feed my hunger
If I swallow lies right down my throat?
Or will it choke me 'till I'm raw?

And tomorrow when I'm gone
Will they whore my image on?
I'll will my throne away
To a virgin heir and Charlie's slave

Murders, murders in the new morgue
Murders, murders in the new morgue
See old Charlie and the platinum armies
Making me their boy

Murders, murders in the new morgue
Murders, murders in the new morgue
He'll make ya scream for the cash machine
Down in Chainsaw Charlie's morgue

Welcome to the morgue, boy
Where the music comes to die
Welcome to the morgue, son
I'll cut your throat just to stay alive

Trust me, boy, I won't steer you wrong
If you trust me, son, you won't last very long

I'm the president of showbiz, my name is Charlie
I'm a cock sucking asshole, that's what they call me
Here from my Hollywood tower I rule
I'm lying motherfucker, the chainsaw's my tool

The new morgue's our factory to grease our lies
Our machine is hungry, it needs your life
Don't mind the faggots and the ruthless scum
Before we're done, son, we'll make you one

I'm the tin man, I've never had a heart
I'm the tin man but I'll make you a star
I'm the tin man, I've never had a heart
I'm the tin man but I'll make me the star

Murders, murders in the new morgue
Murders, murders in the new morgue
See old Charlie and the platinum armies
Making me their boy

Murders, murders in the new morgue
Murders, murders in the new morgue
He'll make ya scream for the cash machine
Down in Chainsaw Charlie's morgue



The gypsy meets the boy

(Lawless)

The tarot is fate
Said the gypsy queen
And she beckoned me
To glimpse my future she'd seen

She said: do you see what I see? Be careful to choose
Be careful what you wish for 'cause it may come true
When I lay the card down will it turn up the fool?
Will it turn up sorrow? If it does then you lose

I'm the lost boy, can you help me?
I'm the lost boy, can you help me?

Then the illusion was real
A crimson idol I saw
But the higher he'd fly
Then the further he'd fall

She said: do you see what I see? Be careful to choose
Be careful what you wish for 'cause it may come true
When I lay the card down will it turn up the fool?
Will it turn up sorrow? If it does then you lose

I'm the lost boy, can you help me?
I'm the lost boy, can you help me?

I just wanna be, I just wanna be, I just wanna be
The crimson idol of a million
I just wanna be, I just wanna be, I just wanna be
The crimson idol of a million eyes



Doctor Rokter

(Lawless)

He's the king of sting, Mr Morphine, my friend
Uncle Slam, the medicine man
And I'm a junkie with a big King Kong sized monkey
Crawling up and down my back

Oh, I'll help ya, son to rearrange your mind
Oh, I'll help ya, son but ya gotta buy this time
I'm your doctor

Help me, please, oh doctor, help me, please
Doctor Rockter, you know I need you
Doctor, please, my MD, fix me in my time of need
But can ya see the fire that's in my eyes?

It's the mirror from the wall that's on the table
Feeding me little white lies
And I'm wasted in a waste land, I'm a junk man
I got tombstones in my eyes

Oh, I'll help ya, son to rearrange your mind
Oh, I'll help ya, son but ya gotta buy this time
I'm your doctor

Help me, please, oh doctor, help me, please
Doctor Rockter, you know I need you
Doctor, please, my MD, fix me in my time of need
But can ya see the fire that's in my eyes?

Help me, uncle Slam
The beast claims another man

Cocaine, codine, 714
A tuinol blindfold just what I need
Help me, help me, help me

Help me, please, oh doctor, help me, please
Doctor Rockter, you know I need you
Doctor, please, my MD, fix me in my time of need
But can ya see the fire that's in my eyes?



I am one

(Lawless)

Demolition, mission man
The old boy is hating me
I've become the one they warned me about
Oh, he's gonna die before me

Long live, long live
Long live the king of mercy
Long live, long live

Is there no love? I am one
The side you see is the nasty me
Oh, I am one, love, I am one
I got something to prove and nothing to lose

Oh, I am one

Eighteen bloody roses
Each a year that bled my soul
Eighteen and numb, I'm somebody's son
Mama, look what I've become

Long live, long live
Long live the king of mercy
Long live, long live

Is there no love? I am one
The side you see is the nasty me
Oh, I am one, love, I am one
I got something to prove and nothing to lose

Oh, I am one

Will he take me down to the gallows?
And kill the boy inside the man
I'm just a rock and roll nigger
I know he don't know what I am

I don't see my face in the mirror
And more or understand
Why am I the chosen one?
I'm the crimson man

Long live, long live
Long live the king of mercy
Long live, long live

Is there no love? I am one
The side you see is the nasty me
Oh, I am one, love, I am one
I got something to prove and nothing to lose

Oh, I am one

Is there no love to shelter me?
Only love, love sets me free
Is there no love to shelter me?
Only love, love sets me free



The idol

(Lawless)

Will I be alone this morning?
Will I need my friends?
Something just to ease away the pain

And now I never see
The loneliness behind my face
I am just a prisoner to my faith

If I could only stand
And stare in the mirror would I see?
One fallen hero with a face like me

And if I scream could anybody hear me?
If I smash the silence
You'll see what fame has done to me

Kiss away the pain and leave me lonely
I'll never know if love's a lie
Ooh, being crazy in paradise is easy
Can you see the prisoners in my eyes?

Where is the love to shelter me?
Give me love, love set me free
Where is the love to shelter me?
Only love, love set me free

Set me free

Kiss away the pain and leave me lonely
I'll never know if love's a lie
Ooh, being crazy in paradise is easy
Can you see the prisoners in my eyes?

Where is the love to shelter me?
Give me love, love set me free
Where is the love to shelter me?
Only love, love set me free

Where is the love to shelter me?
Give me love, love set me free
Where is the love to shelter me?
Only love, love set me free



Hold on to my heart

(Lawless)

There's a flame, flame in my heart
And there's no rain can put it out
And there's a flame, it's burning in my heart
And there's no rain can put it out

So just hold me, hold me, hold me
Take away the pain inside my soul
And I'm afraid, so all alone
Take away the pain that's burning in my soul

'Cause I'm afraid that I'll be all alone
So just hold me, hold me, hold me

Hold on to my heart
To my heart, to me
Hold on to my heart
To my heart, to me

And oh no, don't let me go
'Cause all I am you hold in your hands
And hold me and I'll make it through the night
And I'll be alright, hold on, hold on to my heart

Hold on to my heart
To my heart, to me
Hold on to my heart
To my heart, to me



The great misconceptions of me

(Lawless)

Welcome to the show, the great finale's finally here
I thank you for coming into my theatre of fear
Welcome to the show, you're all witnesses you see
A privileged invitation to the last rights of me

Remember me? You can't save me
Mama, you never needed me
No crimson king, look in my eye, you'll see
Mama, I'm lonely, it's only me, only me

I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
The crimson idol of a million
I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
The crimson idol of a million eyes

I am the prisoner of the paradise I dreamed
The idol of a million lonely faces look at me
Behind the mask of sorrow four doors of doom behind my eyes
I've got their footprints all across my crimson mind

Long live, long live
Long live the king of mercy
Long live, long live

There is no love to shelter me
Only love, love set me free
No love to shelter me
Only love, love set me free

I was the warrior with an anthem in my soul
The idol of eight thousand lonely days of rage ago
And remember me when it comes your time to choose
Be careful what you wish for, it might just come true

Long live, long live
Long live the king of mercy
Long live, long live

There is no love to shelter me
Only love, love set me free
No love to shelter me
Only love, love set me free

Red, crimson red
Am I the invisible boy?
The straps on my back

Red, crimson red
No, I was never to be
Only one crimson son
No, it never was me

Living in the limelight little did I know?
I was dying in the shadows and the mirror was my soul
It was all I ever wanted, everything I dreamed
But the dream became my nightmare and no one could hear me scream

With these six strings I make a noose
To take my life, it's time to choose
The headlines read of my suicide
Of my suicide

Oh, sweet silence, where is the sting?
I am no idol, no crimson king
I'm the imposter the world has seen
My father was the idol, it was never me

I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be the crimson idol of a million
I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be the crimson idol of a million eyes

No love to shelter me
Only love, love set me free
No love to shelter me
Only love, love set me free

No love to shelter me
Only love, love set me free
No love to shelter me
Only love, love set me free
