Apocalyptic Love - Lyrics

[Decay]

The ''Apocalyptic Love'' official album lyrics. Thanks to Ryan for the effort and for posting them up back on the old board.

Apocalyptic Love

I got a real bad feeling
There'll be nothing to say
Whole world's going crazy
Now the end is on the way
But we've got one hot minute
To do anything you like
To do anything you like

This is the last time
Oh, oh
Don't care how we do it
Just as long as we can love under the same sky
All we got is tonight

I wanna feel you falling right at my side
Apocalyptic love
I wanna revel till we die
Until the last light's fading
I just wanna see you smile
I just wanna see you smile
As we burn the pyre

This is the last time
Oh, oh
Don't care how we do it
Just as long as we can love under the same sky
All we got is tonight
All we got is tonight

We'll dance under the burning sky
Watch it die
No sorrow, no sorrow
Together as the fire's rage
And erase tomorrow
Tomorrow
And when it's all said and done
We will have love
Until the very end of time

(Solo)

This is the last time
Oh, oh
Don't care how we do it
Just as long as we can love under the same sky
All we got is tonight
All we got is tonight
All we got is tonight

One Last Thrill

My life it feels just like a never-ending Monday morning
Somebody wake me from this nightmare
Will it ever end?
No, I don't like it
No color in the sky, the same old tired situation
Stuck in the place I can't escape
I've been here way too long
All this monotony has gotten me nowhere, but down
I'm reckless and on fire

I still remember
We did whatever
We had it all when we were young and free
Was never better, those were the best of times

One last thrill and always
(Sometimes you know it comes to get me)
It seemed to feel so right
(You know I can't deny)
What I'd give for one taste
(What I'd give for just)
Of one last thrill before I die

I go to work
The boss is clamoring for my attention
Another monologue I've heard a million times before
No, I'm not lying

I'm bored to death
This life's been dragging since I don't remember
This 9 to 5 is like a suicide I can't endure
And if I don't get out in time
I think I'm gonna die
I'm reckless and on fire

I still remember
I did whatever
I had it all when I was young and free
Was never better, those were the best of times

One last thrill and always
(Sometimes you know it comes to get me)
It seemed to feel so right
(You know I can't deny)
What I'd give for one taste
(What I'd give for just)
Of one last thrill before I die

I wanna feel what I felt before
I wanna know there's something more
'cause the Devil down in me, it never dies
I wanna revel in ecstasy
I want the good going bad in me
Wanna live just like I'm dying
I don't wanna let this moment pass me by!
I wave bye bye bye!

(Solo)

One last thrill and always
(Sometimes you know it comes to get me)
It seemed to feel so right
(You know I can't deny)
What I'd give for one taste
(What I'd give for just)
Of one last thrill before I...

One last thrill and always
(Sometimes you know it comes to get me)
It seemed to feel so right
(You know I can't deny!)
What I'd give for one taste
(What I'd give for just)
Of one last thrill before I die

Standing In The Sun


You're the dark to light
You're never satisfied
You only know the things that will fail to be
A pessimistic one
Who sees the end to come
Where every joy is lost to a tragedy

And still you wonder why you cannot find your peace today
'cause you were meant to live
So much more than this
Now if only you could see

You could be standing out in the Sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
There ain't a cloud in sight
Still your heart beats cold and grey
Every day

You know it brings me down
The way you drag around
Your heavy heart just like a stone
Well, keep your misery
Don't put it all on me
'cause I've got problems of my own

You could be standing out in the Sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
So keep your cloud of darkness and doom off my parade
Here today

And if I could you know I'd set off a spark
I would burn it out
I would burn it all away
And purify your jaded, cold calloused heart
Some day, I'll find a way

(Solo)

You could be standing out in the Sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
There ain't a cloud in sight
Still your heart beats cold and grey
Every day

You could be standing out in the Sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
Someday I'll steal the spark, I will burn your doubt away
I'll find a way

All we will to be is all we are

You're A Lie

You are the voice of reason that I can't escape
Cut me down a thousand times a day
I don't need you anymore
I don't need you anymore

I trusted you and there was no one else
All you did was make me doubt myself
Don't believe you anymore
Don't believe you anymore

You bled me out
You tore me down
Your time has come
You can go

'cause you're a liar, liar
Lie!
All my faith's been wasted, wasted
'cause you're a liar, liar
Lie!
I don't need you to save me anymore

I'm fragile, but I'm not a fool
I won't hear another word from you
You won't hurt me anymore
You won't hurt me anymore
The hand I held just held me down
It took so long, now I know

'cause you're a liar, liar
Lie!
All my faith's been wasted, wasted
'cause you're a liar, liar
Lie!
I won't sit here and take this anymore

You can say anything that you wanna say
But my attention's long gone and turned away
You're such a lie
You were only the enemy
Everything you are, I will deny

(Solo)

'cause you're a liar, liar
Lie!
I'll just come out and say it, say it
'cause you're a liar, liar
Lie!
All my faith's been wasted, wasted
'cause you're a liar, liar
Liar!
I don't need you to save me anymore

I don't need you to save me anymore
I don't need you to save me anymore

No More Heroes


Took a shot in the dark
Though the aim was true
Still it missed the mark
As we wait for a hero we can't find
Now I know, now I realize
It's a hard line
Once you cross you're on your own
But I won't lie, I'm not satisfied
We can't wait much longer

When your heroes, turn to the enemy
And there is nothing left to hold
When your heroes, give only apologies
I won't deny it leaves me cold

Once again, you let us fall
Still you ease our minds and assured us all
In the end, everything's gonna be alright
But they won't
Now I realize, these are hard times
We can't fight them on our own
But I won't lie, I'm not satisfied
Who will save tomorrow?

When your heroes, turn to the enemy
And there is nothing left to hold
When your heroes, give only apologies
I won't deny it leaves me cold

Hope we're still alive
Still alive
Oh, oh, oh
Hope we're still alive
Still alive in the end

(Solo)

Now I know
Now I realize, these are hard times
We can't face them on our own
But I won't lie, I'm not satisfied
Who will save tomorrow?

When your heroes, turn to the enemy
And there is nothing left to hold
When your heroes, give only apologies
I won't deny it leaves me cold

When your heroes, turn to the enemy
And there is nothing left to hold
When your heroes, give only apologies
I won't deny it leaves me cold

If we're still alive
Still alive
Oh, oh, oh
If we're still alive
I would never doubt you again

Halo

Like a prophet of doom
I have come to show the way
I'm the Devil you keep inside
'cause it's all I can do to stay silent and remain
Watching all of your days pass you by

But the time has come
To throw your halo down
We may never live forever
So you better live for now
Don't deny it
What you need ain't in the clouds
Here it comes, here it comes
Time to dirty up your halo

Could be living so high, but you waste your life away
Still afraid to be what you are
Still I beg you to try to start living for today
'cause regrets gonna bury your heart

But the time has come
To throw your halo down
We may never live forever
So you better live for now
Don't deny it
What you need ain't in the clouds
Here it comes, here it comes
Time to dirty up your halo

You will not obey, you will not obey - defy it
I will lead the way, I will lead the way to bring you down

(Solo)

But the time has come
To throw your halo down
We may never live forever
So you better live for now
Don't deny it
What you need ain't in the clouds
Here it comes, here it comes
Time to dirty up your halo

Put down your halo
Put down your halo

Here it comes, here it comes
Time to dirty up your halo now

We Will Roam

A restless tide
Is breaking on the shore
Unsettled skies
Beyond the storm

The wind we ride
Until we can no more
Just to find our own
Just to find out own
We can't let go

And still we roam
Now forevermore
Tread the night on steel and stone
And still we roam
Never asking more
Where we are will be our home
Our home

And it's been said
That we're the last to fall
A precious few
The first to fade

Keepers till the end
Of what was lost
Still we can't let go
Still we can't let go
We're on our own

And still we roam
Now forevermore
Tread the night on steel and stone
And still we roam
Never asking more
Where we are will be our home

(Solo)

And still we roam
Now forevermore
Tread the night on steel and stone
And still we roam
Never asking more
Where we are will be our home

(Solo)

Anastasia


Blood red sky on a desert road
Gotta make my way down to Mexico
For what I did, I know that it was wrong
The fire in my heart it will never die
Everything I love will be left behind
No turning back, forever gone tonight

All my love Anastasia, Anastasia
This may be our last goodbye
You can't save me
I am fading
Blood is on my hands tonight

All I need is a miracle
Lawmen got me running now forevermore
They'll hunt me down until the end of time
Oh my mama, now I've got to go
Never love another how I loved you so
I'm so afraid to leave this all behind

All my love Anastasia, Anastasia
This may be our last goodbye
You can't save me
I am fading
Blood is on my hands tonight

(Solo)

All my love Anastasia, Anastasia
This may be our last goodbye
You can't save me
I am fading
Blood is on my hands tonight

Anastasia, Anastasia
For your honor took a life
You can't save me
I am fading
Blood is on my hands tonight

Not For Me

Dirty sunrise creeping in
Broken bottles
Guilt within
The room is black
The blinds are drawn

I don't remember anything
What I've done, where I've been
Another night has come and gone

This is not for me, no
This is not for me, no
This life is not for me, no
This is not for me, no
Anymore

The Devil smiles and laughs at me
Says you'll be back, just wait and see
You know I've heard this all before

And I say
You can keep your high life in the hills
Your cocaine lies and whiskey thrills
I don't need you anymore

This is not for me, no
This is not for me, no
This life is not for me, no
This is not for me, no
Oh, oh

The only thing that makes me whole again
Is to stand right here before you with a song
Oh, oh
I'll keep running till the very end
For the life I've lived is not the life I want

(Solo)

Dirty sunrise creeping in
Broken bottles, guilt within
In a place I don't belong

This is not for me, no
This is not for me, no
This life is not for me, no
This life is not for me, no
Anymore
Yeah

You can keep your life
I don't want it anymore, yeah
I'm gonna leave it all behind, yeah
I'm gonna leave it all behind, yeah
I don't want no more, don't want no more
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Bad Rain

Bloodlust tonight, bite my tongue and hold it in
From deep inside, she aches for every part of him
In the rapture of the midnight Sun
She is longing for immortal love
New moon hangs high, tell me will it ever end?
Oh, oh, oh

Here comes a bad rain
Falling from an aching heart
Here comes a bad rain
Don't know when it's gonna stop

She's somewhere else, should be lying next to me
Under the spell tangled in her ecstasy
From her vein she gave a streaming life
Let him pray on her like a sacrifice
Still she denies everything so brazenly

Oh, oh, oh
Here comes a bad rain
Falling from an aching heart
Here comes a bad rain
Don't know when it's gonna stop

And in the madness of this love
She won't surrender till it's done
And so I'm lost to wait
God, this night could last forever

(Solo)

And so it ends, kisses me and kills the lights
The living dead always leave her satisfied

Here comes a bad rain
Falling from an aching heart
Here comes a bad rain
Don't know when it's gonna stop

Here comes a bad rain
Falling from an aching heart
Here comes a bad rain
Don't know when it's gonna stop

Hard & Fast

I don't want it
Don't need it anymore
You got me lying on the killing floor tonight

I'm on eleven
Been up for days

It's gonna bring me to an early grave
This life
So I've got to go
You won't change my mind

'cause I can't survive another night in the white room
'cause a tiny bit
It always turns to more

And these bloodshot eyes gotta say goodbye
I had my fun
But I can't deny
Living hard and fast
I'll never last beside you
Oh!

My skin is crawling
I'm a shell of myself
You come a roaring like a bat out of Hell
That's right
Every fucking time!

Well, come on lover
Won't you give it a rest
I'm never gonna make it out of this mess alive

So I've got to go
Gotta say goodbye

'cause I can't survive another night in the white room
'cause a tiny bit
It always turns to more

And these bloodshot eyes gotta say goodbye
I had my fun
But I can't deny
Living hard and fast
I'll never last beside you
Oh!

(Solo)

'cause I can't survive another night in the white room
'cause a tiny bit
It always turns to more

And these bloodshot eyes gotta say goodbye
I had my fun
But I can't deny
Living hard and fast
I'll never last beside you
Living hard and fast
I'll never last beside you
No, no, no!

Far And Away

Across the lawn last great divide
The distant longing never dies
And all the pain of a dream that was never known
Never fades, no
That's alright, someday I'll find you
I tell myself most every night

You seem so far and away
Another life, another time and place
Oh, oh, if only I could find you
So far and away
It's something lost I never will replace
It seems so far away

A love I'll never come to see
And though I've tried can't let it be
My God, it aches for the longing it only grows
Every day
I only bleed when I'm all alone
They say in time give it tomorrow
But to me that's just a lie

You seem so far and away
Another life, another time and place
Oh, oh, if only I could find you
So far and away
I'm waiting on a miracle today
It seems so far away

(Solo)

So if you hear this last refrain
I hope you know that I still wait
I can't let go, all I need is a miracle
And today all I need is a miracle
Oh, oh, oh, yeah

It seems so far and away
Another life, another time and place
Oh, oh, I hope these words will find you
So far and away
It's something lost I never will replace
No, I'm begging for a miracle today
Today

(Solo)

And I wait so long
And I wait so long, oh yeah
And I'm so alone, so alone

Shots Fired


If I could stand for something
I would turn the bitter tide
I would turn it on the pain I've come to know
And calm the storm that never dies

I'm hearing
Shots fired
Out of range
They wanna see me in a blood soaked grave
But still I live to die another day

I can feel it from a distance
All the venom and the spite
It's not enough for though I've given them my all, yeah
Impossible to satisfy

I'm hearing
Shots fired
Out of range
They wanna see me in a blood soaked grave
But still I live to die another day

Shots fired
Out of range
They wanna see me in a blood soaked grave
But still I live to die another day

Another day
For I've heard it all before
It's all in vain
You won't shoot me down

(Solo)

Shots fired
Out of range
They wanna see me in a blood soaked grave
But still I live to die another day

Shots fired
Out of range
They wanna see me in a blood soaked grave
But still I live to die another day

Carolina

Under city lights
You got mesmerized
You forgot where you are from
And who you are

Such a tragedy
You were young and free
Did you ever think
That you'd fall so far

Turn it on tonight
Carolina
Till the morning light
Carolina

I remember when
You were innocent
I remember what you were
My dirty rose

Never happy now
You're just selling out
Easy street is drenched in tears
You know it's never paved in gold

Turn it on tonight
Carolina
Till the morning light
Carolina

Just leave your dirty little secrets for a while
Just leave your dirty little secrets for a while
Let me make it alright

(Solo)

Turn it on tonight
Carolina
Till the morning light
Carolina

Turn it on tonight
Carolina
Till the morning light
Carolina

Crazy Life


It was two years lost, I don't recall
Never did see the light
And if up to you
You know it's true
You probably wouldn't be alive

Had the Devil on our shoulder
With a death wish on our mind
Well the hounds of Hell
They knew us well
They were never too far behind

We were singing

Someday, we'll look back if we get out alive
It's a crazy life
Someday, we'll get out of this crazy life

You had long black hair
The Devils stare
Oh, you were a mystery
Always come around
To bring me down
Do a little bit for free

You couldn't get your shit together
Couldn't bring yourself to right
'cause it's hard to tell
When you're so unwell
If you're in Hell or paradise

We were singing

Someday, we'll look back if we get out alive
It's a crazy life
Someday, we'll get out of this crazy life

Sometimes it's hard to see it
When you're sucked down and reeling
So hard to pull back in from the tide
It's a crazy life

(Solo)

It was two years lost, I don't recall
Never did see the light
And if up to you
You know it's true
You probably wouldn't be alive

We were singing

Someday, we'll look back if we get out alive
It's a crazy life
Someday, we'll get out of this crazy life
We'll get out alive

[uctalum01]

In "You're a Lie" it's definitely "faith has been" in the chorus. I bought the Slash 360 app which has the lyrics to all the songs, minus the bonus tracks.

[abw1987]

Side note - what's with the album not having any liner notes?

[agny]

Side note - what's with the album not having any liner notes?

Yeah, I thought someone on the old board posted the lyrics from the digital album? I was kind of hoping for elaborate liner notes for this album.
