Ave Maria lyrics - Chris Cornell (feat. Eleven)

Ave Maria Maiden mild

O listen to a maiden's prayer

For thou can't hear amid the wild

Tis thou, tis thou can't save amid despair

We slumber safely 'til the morrow

Tho' we, by men, outcast, reviled

O maiden see a maiden's sorrow

O mother, hear a suppliant child

Ave Maria

Ave Maria Undefiled

The flinty couch whereon we're sleeping

Shall seem with down of eider piled

If thou above, sweet, watch our keeping

The murky cavern's air's so heavy

Shall breathe of balm if thou hast smiled

O maiden hear a maiden's pleading

O mother, hear a suppliant child

Ave Maria

Ave Maria Stainless styled

O fiends of air and earth the essence

From this their wonted haunt exiled

Shall flee before thy holy presence

We bow beneath our care so laden

To thy dear guidance reconciled

Then hear, o maiden, simple maiden

And for a father hear a child

Ave Maria

Mission 2000 lyrics - Chris Cornell (from "M:I-2" soundtrack)

Pulled through you and drowning in your swirl

Unfolding in your will

I'm on a mission now

Smoldering down inside your mood

And fanning your eyes

I'm on a mission now

I'm gonna dive through your crying and sleep in your hair

Rise from your ashes and kneel in your prayers

Tear all your temples down

(Yeah) I'm on a mission now, I'm on a mission now

(Hey) I'm on a mission now, I'm on a mission now

Hah

Pulled through you and drowning in your swirl

Unfolding in your will

I'm on a mission now

I'm gonna glide on the winds of your breathing

Writhe in your calm and provide your release

Weave into your wanting and needing

And reside in the heart of your strongest beliefs

Tear all our temples down

Oh, I'm on a mission now

I'm on a mission now

And I have nothing, but then

The have is not as good as the want

I have nothing, but then

The have is not as good as the want, oh

I'm on a mission now

I'm on a mission now, I'm on a mission now

I'm on a mission now, I'm on a mission now

I'm on a mission now

I'm on a mission now, I'm on a mission now, ow

The Promise lyrics - Chris Cornell

If I had nothing to my name

But photographs of you

Rescued from the flame

That is all I would ever need

As long as I can read

What's written on your face

The strength that shines

Behind your eyes

The hope and light

That will never die

And one promise you made

One promise that always remains

No matter the price

A promise to survive

Persevere and thrive

As we've always done

And you said

"The poison in a kiss

Is the lie upon the lips"

Truer words were never shared

When I feel

Like lies are all I hear

I pull my memories near

The one thing they can't take

And one promise you made

One promise that always remains

No matter the price

A promise to survive

Persevere and thrive

As we've always done

The books still open on the table

The bells still ringing in the air

The dreams still clinging to the pillow

The songs still singing in a prayer

Now my soul

Is stretching through the roots

To memories of you

Back through time and space

To carry home

The faces and the names

And photographs of you

Rescued from the flames

One promise you made

One promise that always remains

No matter the price

A promise to survive

Persevere and thrive

And dare to rise once more

A promise to survive

Persevere and thrive

And fill the world with life

As we've always done

When Bad Does Good lyrics - Chris Cornell

Standing beside an open grave

Your fate decided, your life erased

Your final hour has come today

Lit by the fire of your temples burning

You are a child and so was I

Now you're a hunter but I am a lion

And I will cut you down like I've done so many times

But sometimes bad can do some good

Sometimes bad can do some good

Sometimes bad can do some good

And I heard you say that flesh sells by the pound

When blood is raining down it cuts a deep river

And I'm diving

Now shine a light down onto the earth

And shake this gold dust out, out of the dirt

No saints beside me and no prayers to guide me

Sometimes bad can do some good

Bad can do some good

Sometimes bad can do some good

(Rain down, heaven is falling)

I've chosen a side and I will show no pity

(Rain down, heaven is falling)

And spare no lives

For those who try me

(Rain down, heaven is falling)

Let it be understood

Sometimes bad can do some good

(Rain down, heaven is falling)

Sometimes bad can do some good

(Rain down, heaven is falling)

Sometimes bad can do some good

You Never Knew My Mind lyrics - Chris Cornell

I know you feel the way I change

But you can't change the way I feel

Sometimes I'm a stranger to you

One of a kind

And I think some way you'll make it

Though you don't know how to take it

Sometimes you're a stranger to me

One of a kind

There were times of lots of laughter

And you felt you understood

We were carefree, open, and honest

Lovin', easy, kind, and true

And I suppose you never doubted

That we were altogether fine

You never really knew my mind

You never really knew my mind

My silence holds the secrets find

I answer but don't answer

You did not see me well enough

To recognize the signs

You didn't want to notice

Or know that it was over

I did not see you well enough

To recognize the signs

And there were times of lots of laughter

And you felt you understood

We were carefree, open, and honest

Lovin', easy, kind, and true

And I suppose you never doubted

That we were altogether fine

Then you saw the changes painfully

And you knew

You never really knew my mind

And I suppose you never doubted

That we were altogether fine

Sometimes I'm a stranger to you

Sometimes you're a stranger to me

Sometimes, maybe all the time

You never really knew my mind

I never really knew your mind
