my take on the lyrics, most are based on iceage version, mad props to him for bringing this shit so fast and accurately. the exercise of coming up with the lyrics has always being fun and special, i has always connected me with the music and feel.

after this, i feel so much more confident about what the band has brought to life. a great record.

(some minor differences with iceage version here and there, again mad props to him)

DIAMOND EYES

to the edge
till we all
get off

i will take
you away
with me
once and for all

time will see us realign
diamonds rain across the sky
shower me into the same
realm

calculate
our embrace
hold on
(come with me now)
and run away
outta space
with me
once and for all

time will see us realign
diamonds rain across the sky
shower me into the same
realm

time will see us realign
diamonds rain across the sky
i will lead us to the same
realm

when the coffin shakes
and the needle breaks
come
run away
with me
come on youll see
once and for all

time will see us realign
diamonds rain across the sky
shower me into the same
realm

time will lead us to the same
realm

i will lead us to the same
realm

YOUVE SEEN THE BUTCHER

dont wanna take it slow
i wanna take you home
and watch the world explode
from underneath your cloth

i want to watch the rain!
you creep across the nightsky!

you slowly enter
cause you know my room
and then you crawl your knees off
before you shake my tomb

i wanna watch you close
i need to see for sure
under the tape is who?
who do you think we could show?

i want to watch the rain!
you creep across the nightsky!

you slowly enter
cause you know my room
and then you crawl your knees off
and then you shake my tomb

i want to watch the rain!
you creep across the nightsky!

you
slowly enter
cause you know my room
and then you crawl your knees off

you enter slowly
you know my room
you crawl your knees off
and then you shake my tomb

BEAUTY SCHOOL

i like you, when
when you take off your face
put away all your teeth
and take us way underneath
cause you could die if you take it alone

i watch you taste and
i see your face
and i know im alive
youre shooting stars
from the barrel of your eyes
it drives me crazy
just drives me wild

i kinda like you, when
when you make up them real
(take the phone in your room)
stop the tape
or resume
well you could try
if you think it
will load

i watch you taste and
i see your face
and i know im alive
youre shooting stars
from the barrel of your eyes
it drives me crazy
it drives me wild

everytime
everytime (you try)
while...
its a beautiful
ride
while...
its a beautiful
ride
ride...

i watch you taste and
i see your face
and i know im alive
youre shooting stars
from the barrel of your eyes
it drives me crazy
just drives me wild

PRINCE

i relate to your kind
your design (your devotion to wait)
(get - get get) get your brain on the prize
then die
inside!

the mindset
im a killer
with your mind
out of sane

its a game that we'd like
we crave (yet - nobody waves)
anyway you decide
you try
but you die!

mindset
of the killer
with your gaze
you paint the room

blood red
with tears
born from the stage

and you cant stop now!
room by room!
one more town!

covered in black and gold!
no one cares!
no one knows!

my gift to the world outside!
its ok!
im alright!

now open your empty hands!
here comes the flood!
here comes the end!

click "erase the device"
give phase (then you clear out the room)
blow, kisses wave them goodbye
good night!

(goodnight!)

mindset
of the killer
with your gaze
you paint the room

blood red
with tears
born from the stage

and you cant stop now!
room by room!
one more town!

covered in black and gold!
no one cares!
no one knows!

my gift to the world outside!
its ok!
im alright!

now open your empty hands!
here comes the flood!
here comes the end!

ROCKET SKATES

lets drink
with out weapons in our hands
lets sleep, in this trance

youre red
soaking wet
im right next to you
youre red
soaking wet

im right next to you
youre red
soaking wet
im right next to you
youre red

976-EVIL

for a thousand days
youve been staring away
are you faint?
are you thinking?

crack a smile... a wink...
it, doesnt scare me away
hit the brakes
i feel like...
could losing
you
to you...

so i gaze (in your eyes)
and i wonder
can you take
me up?
your hands (your hands)
that im under
come and wake
me up...

...soon

take a bow and wave
as we carry away
it was great
but im not leaving

crack a smile... a wink...
(it still)
doesnt scare me away
hit the brakes
i feel like...
could losing you
to you...

so i gaze (in your eyes)
and i wonder
can you take
me up?
your hands (your hands)
that im under
come and wake
me up...

for a thousand days
(we)
could get carried away
are you in?

are you in?... (are you in?)
are you in?...
(us given...)
(us given, id die with you)

so i gaze (in your eyes)
and i wonder
can you take
me up?
your hands (your hands)
that im under
come and wake
so i gaze (in your eyes)
and i want here
can you take
me up?

THIS PLACE IS DEATH

you arrived!
in my dream
beside me every night
you and me
we explode
to the scene
we try to drain the night
empty

no one goes off in every way
like you do...

we got together
we weaved our web
tangled in the ways with you
we expected to see in red

we both erupt in colors
and carve our names
you keep me aroused
i know you
feel the same

you arrived
in my dream
beside me every night
just you and me
we explode
through the scene
we try to drain the night
empty

no one else has a hold over me
like you do...

you open up the covers
you lure me in
tackle me anxious
back into bed
where i hope to discover
all of your ways
this place is death
i know you
feel the same

you arrived
in my dream
beside me every night
just you and me
we explode
through the scene
we try to drain the night

every way...

I had to hear the song with fresh ears yesterday.. thats when I heard him say "how's this shit"... he says it later in the song as well so it makes sense.

Cool im noticing Chino doing alot more rhyming on this one... maybe its a tactic for professionalism I think theyl get really big with this album all the kids will be into em.... I dont kno wether I want that though they deserve it....

Few minor corrections from what I'm hearing...

Diamond Eyes
"Calculate our embrace"

CMND/CTRL
"i think your name
it slipped off my tongue
point it at the camera
laughing at you (haha)
once again"

Beauty School
"stop the tape
or resume"

This Place Is Death
"we try to drain the night empty"


The rest looks great, congrats Iceache and the others who helped too !
I just think chorus of Risk is not "I'll confuse them", cause it doesnt really make sense with the "but I think I can try", but I can't figure out what he says...
Maybe "I can't ?? ??" which would make more sense with the "but I think I can try"...



If ignorance is bliss, then knock the smile off my face.

deftones86

I think in risk it goes

Im Confused oh, but i think i can try

In Royal:

calm down!
teach us!
the roads!

your contact!
it keeps us!
from roads! (Provoked)

I think the last line is "Provoked" in that second part of the versy bit. If you get me...
