Speak


They've given me a mission
I don't really know the game yet
I'm bent on submission
Religion is to blame
I'm the new messiah
Death Angel with a gun
Dangerous in my silence
Deadly to my cause
Speak to me the pain you feel
Speak the word [Revolution!]
The word is all of us
I've given my life to become what I am
To preach the new beginning
To make you understand
To reach some point of order
Utopia in mind, you've got to learn
To sacrifice, to leave what's now behind
Speak to me the pain you feel
Speak the word
The word is all of us
Speak the word
The word is all of us
Seven years of power
The corporation claw
The rich control the government, the media the law
To make some kind of difference
Then everyone must know
Eradicate the fascists, revolution will grow
The system we learn says we're equal under law
But the streets are reality, the weak and poor will fall
Let's tip the power balance and tear down their crown
Educate the masses, we'll burn the White House down
Speak to me the pain you feel
Speak to me the pain you feel
Speak the word [Revolution!]
The word is all of us
Speak the word [Revolution!]
The word is all of us
Speak the word
The word is all of us
Speak the word
The word is all of us
[Speak!]
[ Mary worked the S M shows in Times Square. At seventeen ]
[ she met Father William, who arranged her cloister with "Our Lady ]
[ of Immaculate Pain." A new life. A different way of living. ]
[ Except for her debt with him, which was expected to be paid in ]
[ full, weekly, "...on the altar. Like a sacrifice." ]
[ When she was eighteen, Father William introduced her to a ]
[ man named Dr. X. Now she works for him. ]


The needle lies


I looked back once
And all I saw was his face
Smiling, the needle crying
Walking out of his room
With mirrors, afraid I heard him scream
You'll never get away
Cold and shaking
I crawled down alleys to try
And scrape away the tracks that marked me
Slammed my face into walls of concrete
I stared, amazed at the words written on the wall
Don't ever trust
Don't ever trust the needle, it lies
Don't ever trust
Don't ever trust the needle when it cries, cries your name
Wet and raving
The needle keeps calling me back
To bloody my hands forever
Carved my cure with the blade
That left me in scars
Now every time I'm weak
Words scream from my arm
Don't ever trust
Don't ever trust the needle, it lies
Don't ever trust
Don't ever trust the needle when it cries, cries your name
Don't ever trust
Don't ever trust the needle, it lies
Don't ever trust
Don't ever trust the needle when it cries, cries your name
[ After Nikki leaves, Mary is plagued by the vision of ]
[ Nikki turning into Father William. As they made love on the ]
[ altar, the memories came flooding back. Years filled with men ]
[ who had used her, degraded and beaten her, and driven their ]
[ hatred and coldness into her heart. Once, she thought Nikki was ]
[ her hope. But now he seemed like all the rest. ]
[ She hated him. She hated men. She hated life. ]
[ Unable to shake his addiction, and feeling beaten in his ]
[ confrontation with Dr. X, Nikki returns. ]
Nikki: Anybody home?
Mary?
[ He finds her dead in her room. ]




My global mind



There's hunger in Africa,
and anger on assembly lines.
At the touch of a button
I'm miles away.
I want no connection, just information,
and I'm gone.

I feel so helpless,
so I turn my gaze to another place.

My global mind reaches out for the truth.

Why try holding back the wave?
You'll only drown in the changes.
You've got to learn to let go.
Just let go and experience the flight.
Try to see from a different side..
If balance is the key
maybe we'll see
a fututre understanding,

then we won't feel so helpless,
an turn away and hide from the change.

My global mind searches for something new.
My global mind zeros in on news.

Time and rules are changing.
Attention span is quickening.
Welcome to the Information Age.

I feel so helpless,
so I turn my gaze to another place.

My global mind searches for something new.
My global mind zeros in on news.
My global mind reaches out for the truth.
My global mind zeros in on you.

It's searching everywhere,
across the mountains,
across the oceans,
across every man made line.
No boundary gonna keep it from you
