Misc. Type O Negative Lyrics

“Damn me father, for I must sin…”

Four centuries of this damned immortality
Yet, I did not ask to be made. Why?
I will never again feel your sun upon my face
Or the comfort of a grave
I am not alive and I am not dead
This is hell on earth

How can I possibly explain this eternal youth?
When I can’t do nothing but sit by
As my loves grow old and wither
And with each of them take a fragment of my heart
And prolong this endless winter
It is October’s perpetual agony
It is the shadow realm

{chorus}
Father please forgive him
For he knows not what to do

With every victim I pray for my own death
And as much as I love the night
I curse the moon’s eerie glow
This bloodlust that drags me to forever
The toxic rays of dawn condemn me to limbo
I am forced to dwell in grey autumnal twilight
I am suspended in the dusk

{chorus}
Father please forgive him
For he knows not what to do
Father please forgive him
For he knows not what to do

Her golden hair moving as the wind blows
Full moon on a Friday night
Little candle burning in the window
Lets me know everything’s alright

Summer girl, make me feel fine
Always in the corner of my mind

Kenny Hickey lying on the sidewalk
Devil music from the house next door
So I step on over his vomit
Through the screen and across the floor

Sweet days of summer
Her love is in bloom
July is dressed up
And playing her tune
When I come home
From a hard days night
And you’re waiting there
I don’t have a care
A care in this world

See her smile lead me to the bedroom
Fire burning and there’s wine for two
Feel your legs spreading out to take me
Just can’t wait to get inside of you

Idle hands
May be the devil’s work
But idle minds you see
Are so much worse
Too much pity spent
And wasted time
Irresponsibility
Not my only crime no

Obsessive thinking
Depressed me again
The person I once was
He’s dead
Exhume the past this time
Will be my last
This is my final quest
To remove my mask yeah

Don’t be afraid
As she pulled down the shade
Said there’s nothing to fear
But the monster is here
So just tell me the time
Be it quarter of nine
Since the sun’s gone away
Now the creature will play

Ice cold eyes follow me
Everywhere I go
Making my heart appear as lead
I hate to wish it
But I’ll tell you though
That I’m quite ready
Cause I’m already dead

Don’t be afraid
As she pulled down the shade
Said there’s nothing to fear
But the monster is here
So just tell me the time
Be it quarter of nine
Since the sun’s gone away
Now the creature will play

When I look up to the sky
I see your eyes in funny
Kind of yellow
I rush home to bed
I soak my head
I see your face
Underneath my pillow
I wake next morning
Tired still yawning
See your face come
Peeping through my window

Pictures of matchstick men and you
Mirages of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you

Windows echo your reflection
When I look in their direction now
When will this haunting stop
Your face it just won’t
Leave me alone

Pictures of matchstick men and you
Mirages of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you
Oh you’re in the sky
You make men cry, you lie

Pictures of matchstick men
Pictures of matchstick men
Pictures of matchstick men
Pictures of matchstick men
Pictures of matchstick men

this life I’m leaving
was never really good enough
the dreams we had
have never really come
we’ve walked together
we’ve talked apart

close your eyes,
rest your head,
and go to sleep
and go to sleep

I tried to tell you
but it’s only talk
I’ve waited and waited
now I’m the only one
we’re still together
but we’re lonelier

close your eyes,
rest your head,
and go to sleep
and go to sleep

You don’t remember the the
things that you won’t
you won’t let people
inside your soul
but I know, what I love you for

The prode of teardrops
too emotional
kinder people
with a tougher love
we’ve run togther
now we’ve reached the start

close your eyes,
rest your head,
and go to sleep
and go to sleep

Just Say No To Love (with Peter Steele)

Jealous black and envy green
No one died and left you queen
Of rotted flesh and broken bones
Place your ass upon the throne

Just say no to love

Multihued transparency
Of the girl you’d like to be
A special frozen place in hell
Preserved for those who love themselves

Left is right and right is wrong
None for all and all for none
I’ve had enough say no to love
No to love

Jon Lord said that you were killed
Not possibly be more thrilled
A party thrown (I’m so excited)
Since you’re dead, you’re not invited
On your grave I made a wish
(You beneath me is such bliss)
A fitting end for a phony
You left me for Tony Iommi

Just say no to love
