ELECTRIFIED (Instrumental)
LITTLE DOLL
I WANT YOUR LOVE
ONE SHOT
CLOSER
ALL YOUR JOYFULL WEALTHINESS
MEMBERS ONLY
NO GOD
NOW THERE'S NOTHING
CALLING YOU
THINGS LIKE THAT

LITTLE DOLL

Oh my distorted beauty
What did this cold world put you through?
What did they tell you darling
What did they make you do and say?

The little doll
Who wanted all
What's on her mind

So sensitive
Competitive
She's not that kind

She suffered more than I thought
She found her world Falling apart
So tired of doing poses
So tired of doing what she should
Pretending she's good

The little doll
Who wanted all
What's on her mind

So sensitive
Competitive
She's not that kind

What could she find?
She's going blind

The little doll
Who wanted all
What's on her mind?

So sensitive
Competitive
She's not that kind

And all she owns
Won't set her free
And neither her soul

She's not herself
She's someone else
Losing control

 

I WANT YOUR LOVE

I don't want shackles
I don't want pain
Don't wanna be just a link in the chain

Don't want tragedy
Don't want lies
Don't even need your alibis

I want your love

Don't want forgiveness
It's far too late
A fool like me just can't be saved

I want your love

Don't want no justice
And no debate
No false religion
And twists of fate

And if go down on my knees
I just set your soul at ease

I want your love

 

ONE SHOT

One shot
I'm slowly feeling better
Two shots
I'm getting by
Three shots
And nothing else matters
Four shots
The hours fly

Five shots
And I need to breathe
Six shots
And I believe

You've got to say yes
You've got to say yes
To another excess

I wanna get high
I wanna get high
I wanna get high
I wanna get high

You've got to say yes
You've got to say yes
You've got to say yes
You've got to say yes

 

CLOSER

You want it girl
Give it a try
Just take a sip
Then take a ride

Let me lead
You down the floor
You'll take a bit
Then you want more

Closer and closer and closer to me
Deeper and deeper we go
Closer and closer to me
Deeper and deeper we go


Be patient now
Don't go to fast
Just let it roll
Then make it last

Indulgence is
A privilege
Your love's the only
Drug there is

Closer and closer and closer to me
Deeper and deeper we go
Closer and closer to me
Deeper and deeper we go

We're moving now
On velvet sheets
I'm closed to you
You're closed to me

Feel the way
Our arms entwine
I am yours
And you are mine

Closer and closer and closer to me
Deeper and deeper we go
Closer and closer to me
Deeper and deeper we go

ALL YOUR JOYFULL WEALTHINESS

You should try harder
To get rid of this thing
You should even be smarter
Than to let it back in

You should ask yourself
Is it worth your health
Is it worth your skin
And the pain that it brings

You know so well your little heart
Is tempted frequently
And all your joyfull wealthiness
Can easily deceive

You knew it like summer
You knew it by fall
You knew it like someone
Who knows nothing at all

You know so well your little heart
Is tempted frequently
And all your joyfull wealthiness
Can easily deceive

Don't you know you should let go, let go
Don't you know you should let go, let go

 

MEMBERS ONLY

Dancing in the shadow
Of a loaded gun
Watch them seeking pleasure
By the setting sun

They don't need tomorrow
Hard party people
Only have their say

"Members only
You can be invited
Members only
Everyone's excited

Moving in the circle
Of a friendship ghost
Pickups making pickups
That's the way it goes

Who cares for relations
In these myspace-times
We came here to revel
So make up your mind

"Members only
You can be invited
Members only
Everyone's excited

And you don't even know
And you don't even care ...

 

NO GOD

So familiar, yet so strange
Something here inside has changed
I can see the world through your eyes

Frightened of the strife to come
Still we linger deaf and dumb
Blinded by the light in your eyes

Colonies rise underfoot
Nothing yet is understood
What a change has come to our lives

Bar from burden of belief
We are hopeful to receive
All the gifts you hold in your hand

Walk the streets and sidestep lines
Make donations to the blind
Heaven knows
I'm one of your kind
Your kind

To thy orders now we bow
Unaware of why or how
We shall form the world by your grace

By thy will we fleet the streets
Shake the shackles off our feet
We shall own the world by your grace

(We celebrate) Underneath the moon tonight
(We celebrate) underneath the stars tonight
Underneath your eyes

 

NOW THERE'S NOTHING

Nothing is never enough
Nothing's all, all that we've got
Nothing's all that's left from you
Now there's nothing, Now there's nothing


All the things that you want
All the things that you tried to do
All these moments to live
They no longer wait for you


Nothing is never enough
Nothing's all, all that we've got
Nothing's all that's left from you
Now there's nothing, Now there's nothing


An empty stage, a crowded room
Waiting for you
Sunday evenings filled with gloom
Oh where are you

All the things that you want
All the things that you tried to do
All this love left to give
We'd given it all to you

Nothing is never enough
Nothing's all, all that we've got
Nothing's all that's left from you
Now there's nothing, Now there's nothing

 

CALLING YOU

Give me a sign or a signal
I shall receive
Call me and give me a reason
A reason to be

I'm calling you

Drowned in an ocean of silence
I'm waiting for you
Did you get lost in the distance
I'm not getting through

I'm calling you

I'm calling, I'm calling, I'm calling you
I'm calling, I'm calling, I'm calling you


Looking for notions of progress
On my radio
Your message got lost in transmission
Where did it go

I'm calling you

I'm calling, I'm calling, I'm calling you
I'm calling, I'm calling, I'm calling you


Could I come closer to touch you
Or read in your eyes
Would you believe that my hands are
Not telling lies

I'm calling you

I'm calling, I'm calling, I'm calling you
I'm calling, I'm calling, I'm calling you
 

 

THINGS LIKE THAT

Let it slip
Let it fall
Leave there in the hall

Roll it down
To the ground
Don't you make any sound

Let me sink in the silence
Of a secret affair
Take the weight
Off my hands
Come and show me you care
Things like that
Only happen
When you're there

Kill the fear
Kill the rage
Kill the symptoms of age

Let it go
Let it go
Let your feelings show

Let me sink in the silence
Of a secret affair
Take the weight off my hands
Come and show me you care
Things like that
Only happen
When your're there

XMORPH. MONSTER. LYRICS

(ALL THE LYRICS FROM THE ALBUM by MICHAEL SOMMER)

"SHE FAILED TO LOVE"
"CAN YOU FEEL MY LOVE"

"LEAD ME ON"
"MORE, MORE, MORE"
"MONSTER"
"WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME?"'
"GIRL FOUND LOVE"
"I SUFFER FROM YOU"
"THE TYPICAL SAD SONG"
"AND THEN YOU SMILE"
"DISCIPLE (THE MOMENT OF LOVE)"

SHE FAILED TO LOVE

She waited and waited and then felt related no more
She fell through the cracks in the wall to the dirtiest floor
Why does this feeling occure?
Why is she yearning for more?

She found herself used and abused like an old rotten toy
She found herself laying in bed with the filthiest boys
When will her angel descend?
Will he take hold of her hand?

Oh mercy
On this one
Show mercy
She failed to love, she failed to love

She couldn't explain and there's way to much shame in her eyes
She wasn't prepared for this uncertain kind of surprise
Why did this feeling occure?
Why is she yearning for more?

Oh mercy
On this one
Show mercy
She failed to love, she failed to love

CAN YOU FEEL MY LOVE

As the wheels are turning and the lights go dimm
And the fields are burning full of raging sin

Can you feel my love
Can you feel my love
Can you feel my love
Can you feel my love

From the highest mountain to the deepest sea
From the garden of Eden to the burning tree

Can you feel my love
Can you feel my love
Can you feel my love
Can you feel my love

I want it in the evening
I want it on and on
I want it in the morning
Can't turn it off and on

Can you feel my love ...

 

LEAD ME ON

The Signs said stop
But the body did not
The soul was ready
For another affair

The path was laid
And the duty was paid
So lead me down
Your dark, dark stairs

And if I stumble lead me on
Don't stop
And if I fall just pick me up
Before I drop

Oh lay me down
And touch me slow
And take away
My stupid whoe

I will pretend
There is no end
I will be kind
I won't offend

And if I stumble lead me on
Don't stop
And if I fall just pick me up
Before I drop

 

MORE, MORE, MORE

Let's start the feast, bring in the fire
This is the evening of the queen
She's got pawns, she's got knights
And armor way down to her thighs

She'll want you
She'll hunt you
She'll track you down

"More, more, more
Please give me more
Always more than you did before"


"More, more, more
Please give me more
Always more than you did before"

She knows the well of man's desire
She looks inside his heart of glass
Knows his pain
Knows his needs
And as he kneels she'll feed him sweets

She'll want you
She'll hunt you
She'll track you down

"More, more, more
Please give me more
Always more than you did before"

"More, more, more
Please give me more
Always more than you did before"

"Won't you give me more?
Won't you give me more?"

"
More, more, more
Please give me more
Always more than you did before"

"More, more, more
Please give me more
Always more than you did before"

 

MONSTER

And the words that you say remind me
Of the places I've been
And the way that you look at me now
Of the trouble I've seen

I would gladly give my right hand
Just to find a way to understand
What has happened to us
In those days

There's someone knocking on my door he shoves me
And he wants me to leave
Yes I'd sacrifice all my life
Just for you to
breath again

Oh the path that I take is shady
Almost dark as the night
And I walk with the fear to stumble
Led by shimmering light

I will spend the rest of my time
Crawling through the depth of my mind
To know what's happened to us
In those days

And for the longest time
Bleeds this heart of mine
And for the sake of you I drown

And all my bitter tears
Speak of wasted years
And for the sake of you I drown

Still the words that you say remind me
Of the places I've been
And the way that your eyes meet mine now
Of the trouble I've seen
I would gladly give my right hand
Just to find a way to understand
What has happened to us
In those days

And for the longest time
Bleeds this heart of mine
And for the sake of you I drown

And all my bitter tears
Talk of wasted years
But for the sake of you I drown

Oh for the longest time
Aches this heart of mine
And for the sake of you I drown

And all my bitter tears
Will fall on for years
And for the sake of you I drown

 

WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME

Saying it is easy
Doing it is fine
I'd love to change the world today
And see what I can find

What's in it for me? (Pleasure)
What's in it for me? (Pleasure)

If everything is stupid
And everything's a mess
I'd love to change my point of view
And see what I can get

What's in it for me? (Pleasure)
What's in it for me? (Pleasure)
What's in it for me?

Don't want to be the victim
Don't like to be abused
The treasures that I'm looking for
I never found in you

What's in it for me? (Pleasure)
What's in it for me? (Pleasure)
What's in it for me?

Freedom needs it's martyrs
Happiness a gun
I'm not in it for the love
I'm in it for the fun

What's in it for me? (Pleasure)
What's in it for me? (Pleasure)
What's in it for me?

 

GIRL FOUND LOVE

Girl found love in the depth of the wood
How come she's suddenly understood?

Thunder in the dark
Waiting for the spark
Knowing what to do
Look out your childhood is through

Man found girl in the depth of the wood
How come he suddenly knew what to do?

Look down her dress it is torn
Here is the day she was born

Father said girl stay away from the wood
Oh you found love but it ain't no good

Found her in the dark, kneeling crying hard
Oh what have you done
Look out my baby is gone

Pale stands the moon 'bove the depth of the wood

 

I SUFFER FROM YOU

From the depth of my days
Comes the loneliest phrase
"What am I to do?"

How will I bear the pain
That comes with your name
All that I can do

Is suffer from you
Get infected too
And share the disease
Of bagging you please

Oh your suffering eyes
Tell the sweetest of lies
What am I to do?

How can I take your cross
Pay the love that you cost
All that I can do

Is suffer from you
Get infected too
And bear the disease
Of bagging you please

Oh I could not resist
And the warmth of your kiss
Tenderly remains

I was once in your arms
Now it's doing me harm
Only shame remains

I suffer from you
Get infected too
And share the disease
Of bagging you please

 

THE TYPICAL SAD SONG

The typical sad song
Starts with a note of goodbye
The train rolls out and
The left-behind cries

Sad words are spoken
Dumb hearts get broken
Goodbye

The typical scene is
You're walking right out of my door
And the typical memory
Is it ain't gonna be like before

In comes the silence
That's harder than violence
Goodbye

You're so very present in my mind
That you take most of my time
And everyone knows
'Cause all over my face it shows

 

AND THEN YOU SMILE

You're my access to pain
You're my middle name
You are always around
You can always be found

You exist in my mind
Even longer than time
You're all I can see
You're all I can be

You're whatever I say
You're paving my way
You're the deadliest spy
And the glance in my eye

I have forced you to leave
You're clinging to me
You're all I can see
You're all I can be

You stay with me
Eternally
Sometimes you smile
Just for a while
And say my name
Say glad you came
And then you smile
Just for a while


You're the choice I can't choose
You're the loss I can't lose
You're the first and the last
And my permanent past

I will die in your name
On a bed full of shame
And finally see
I could never be free

You stay with me
Eternally
Sometimes you smile
Just for a while
And say my name
Say glad you came
And then you smile
Just for a while

And rub my neck
Say welcome back
And then you smile
Just for a while

 

DISCIPLE (THE MOMENT OF LOVE)

How many times do you have to
Speak from your eloquent mind
How many desperate moments
Till I know the end of the line

Can I allow you to lead me
Way down your narrow path
Will I be fed up when you feed me
The meat raised on your holy grass
Or will I be left

In the moment of love
The moment of love
The moment of love
We're both part of

How can live up to follow
Your dedication to thee
And how can you live on tomorrow
With your explanation of me
It's deadly you see

The moment of love
The moment of love
The moment of love
We're both scared of
