The Packt (Live, Hammersmith Odeon)

The doors blow open

You've arrived

Now, why do you kill

Bring diseases and blight?

I sigh

Silence, cold icy air

Black manic stares

Waits a reply

"No," I answer

"It's a lie, it's a lie

I wouldn't do these things

That she, she said"

You make my flesh creep

Oh, you always manage to repulse me

Along the shore, the cloudways break

The twin suns sink behind the lake

Strange is the night, now black stars rise

Many moons circle through the skies

Why? Where is she now?

She'd let the door rise

She'd bring peace

She silenced the beast

He scratches his leathery skin and grins

Palms in stench amidst the wind

"Yes," he says, prowling his thorny hands

"She's dead"

Along the shore, the cloudways break

The twin suns sink behind the lake

Strange is the night, now black stars rise

Many moons circle through the skies

Why? Where is she now?

She'd let the door rise

She'd bring peace

She silenced the beast

I'll make you a pact

I'll stop war, starvation, disease and poverty

I'll even stop time

But you'll be mine for eternity

Remember, no more time

If you want to win me

I present to you

The atom bomb

It'll rain all night, promise

Now remember the pact

You're mine, all mine

I feel my skin hang to my skull

Suction forces my shell to break

Liquid confusion hits the deck
