Ohms (2020)












Genesis lyrics - Deftones

 I reject both sides of what I'm being told

I've seen right through, now I watch how wild it gets


I finally achieve

Balance, balance, balance, balance

Approaching a delayed

Rebirth, rebirth, rebirth, rebirth


I'm positive there's no sense to what I'm being sold

Yet here I go, I watch how wild we get


Oh can you taste your life?

Balanced, balanced, balanced, balanced

How will you spend your time?

Reborn, reborn, reborn, reborn


Climbing out of the ashes

Turning time inside out

We're miles beyond the sound


We'll start again, taste a lifestyle that never gets old

Yet here we go, just watch how wild it gets


I finally achieve

Balance, balance, balance, balance

Approaching a delayed

Rebirth, rebirth, rebirth, rebirth


Climbing out of the ashes

We're turning time inside out

We're floating off in the ether

We're miles beyond the sound


We're everywhere

No need to return

I'll show you the way


We're everywhere

No need to return

I can show you where

No need to return

I can show you


Climbing out of the ashes

We're turning time inside out

Floating off in the ether

We're miles beyond the sound


Oh, can you taste your life?

Balanced, balanced, balanced, balanced

How will you spend your time

Reborn

Ceremony lyrics - Deftones

 How can't you see this is the end?

Let's face the truth, it's obvious

A different morning, the same charade

Tell me, what's left?


It's an illusion

It's all an illusion


Prep the surface, bound my limbs

Place the chair beneath the rail

On the outside just skin and bones

Show me, what's left?


It's an illusion

It's all an illusion


So I'm leaving you tonight

It's not fun here anymore

I'll be joining the parade

Of the ghosts who came before

Before leaving you complete, no surprise

With one kiss, one caress, ooh


Ooh, the world we shared

Ooh, it was never there, ooh


I'm leaving you tonight

It's not fun here anymore

I'm joining the parade

Of the ghosts before

Leaving you complete for all time

With one kiss, one caress, ooh

Urantia lyrics - Deftones

 I slipped into the cloak you left

I fiddle around in the ashtray

To find your cigarette pinkish red

I light it and take a drag

I swear I'm losing it


With all these erased recordings, I'm rearranging parts

You should accept

We'll probably remain this way to the end, in steps


Underneath the sheets, I find your

Makeup and shoes in a bag laid open

Grab my keys and some money

And circle around the lake

I guess you're losing it


I like to believe that maybe you're a lot like me

Try using this equality we might need in the air


'Cause there are no more left like you

A picture-perfect strange

Imagined in one shape

Unchained


Tempt my spirit within my name

We crawled in the tomb and release some honey

Eighteen hundred million ways striving to make it last


There is no one left like you

A picture-perfect strange

Imagined in one shape

Unchained


There are no more thrills I'll need

Than the desire that we shared

From the channels of our dreams

To the grave


I'll find you again somewhere, I believe

You'll find me somewhere again, I believe

Error lyrics - Deftones

 Tell me something

Have we escaped?

Are we just lost?

The mirrors taunting us against the walls


We are running across the grid

Chasing honey and closing in


We're bound together

In neon tape

I taste in your mouth

We hang upside down


We are gliding above the planes

Dripping honey that prances through our veins


Beyond the gates

Outside the grid

We follow in your grace

Let's find a way through


Shiny candy

Glowing fruits

Drop from the trees

I watch the serpents writhe beneath


We are floating above the grid

Dripping honey that's rushing through our veins


Beyond the gates

Outside the grid

We follow in your grace

But someday

The clouds will break

And we'll all drift through


In lions' trance

We'll create some way through


Frozen in time

Sinking underground

I've thrown out fear

I've shouted these hymns

I kept drowning

Kept nothing

I kept trying

Kept floating

The Spell Of Mathematics lyrics - Deftones

 I drink the poison right from your hands

A sacred vow, it engulfs me

We slip and we slide and in time we create

A feeling

Of warmth inside of you


Holy and strict

Six times a day

We will exchange

Our violent wings

But the beauty is when

You touch me


I believe your love

Has placed its spell on me

And I believe your love

Is the only thing needed to survive

I believe your love

Creates this space where we can breathe

But I believe your love

Beholds this sacred key to life


The snakes come pouring out of your heart

And you know that I can't deny them

So I sink inside where we writhe and create

That feeling that pangs my time with you


We sway in the wind

Inside a haze

Where you speak your language

What am I to say?

I'll just wait for your limbs

To touch me


I believe your love

Has placed its spell on me

And I believe your love

Is the only thing needed to survive

I believe your love

Creates this space where we can breathe

I believe your love

Beholds this sacred key to life

Pompeji lyrics - Deftones

 Deep in the bottomless depths of the ocean

Empty bodies, we sink

Open your eyes, you smile and release me

We slip down beneath and


Jesus Christ, you watch us fail

We raise our glasses and drink in hell


Locked in the core of the tower, I'm patient

In no hurry to leave

Life has been lonely, it might be forever

Making hard to believe in


Jesus Christ, we hold you to blame

You gave your life, but we died in vain


And ooh, we drink from the fountain of intent

And ooh, we choke on the water, then repent


In the street, violent behavior

In chaos, where it's warm

Black omens call, our cage is electric

So we signal, we wait for


Jesus Christ, God raised you as

We raised our glasses and drank in hell


Ooh, we sip from the fountain of intent

And ooh, we choke on the water, then repent

Ooh, we drink from the fountain of intent

Ooh, we choke on the water, then repent


This Link Is Dead lyrics - Deftones

 Thanks, you want action?

Yeah, I'm aware which form you think I should try

That shit means nothin'

You see, I'm done

Right now I think it's time that you know

Pay attention

Watch me close

As I decide which fucking way I move


I'm filled up with true hatred


No, that don't work

You would swear you're why I am here

That don't mean nothing

There's nothing wrong

I can choose how this will unfold

And I feel like fire, but my heart is cold

Open your eyes, you'll see this shit's no fun


'Cause I'm filled up with true hatred

And I relate to no one

It's a useless game


I'm slowly crashing down

You snap your fingers and you think I'll respond

Fuck, I will never need your guide

Some day, yeah, you can show me, right?

That shit means nothing

You see, I'm done

Take your ideas and fucking have some fun


You're on your own

You're on your own

You should, you should


Look deep inside

You might see I'm just fine

Look close, close inside

Don't miss this moment, you may never get back

I'll show you something, something prized

Well, you were there, you think you know what it's like?

I have no patience now for expectation, wow

Fuck this shit, leave me alone


You're on your own

You're on your own

I'm sure, I'm sure

Oh


Radiant City lyrics - Deftones

 There's something inside this

Confusion we face

We marvel in silence

As time ticks away


Where's the ledge?

I can't touch it

But I feel it's so close

Where's the ledge?

I can't touch it

But I feel it's close


Sit lonely inside these

Delusions we face


Where's the ledge?

I can't touch it

But I feel it's so close

Where's the ledge?

I can't touch it

But I feel it's close


No one alive has taken me here

Nothing I've tried will replace your caress

If ever I choose to break in again

Promise me now you'll follow me in, into


A moment of conscience

Then shock to the head


Where's the ledge?

I can't touch it

But I feel it is so close

Where's the ledge?

I can't touch it

But I feel it's close


We marvel in silence

Let time tick away


Where's the ledge?

I can't touch it

But I feel it's so close

Where's the ledge?

I can't touch it

But I feel it's close


No one alive has taken me here

Nothing I tried replaced your caress

Whenever I choose to break in again

Promise me now you will follow me in

'Cause nobody else cuts me the same

You've pulled me into a permanent trance

If ever you choose to break in again

I promise you now, I'll follow you in

Promise you now, I'll follow you in

Headless lyrics - Deftones

 I think it's obvious we are a mess, we cut against the grain

It's contagious how we live

If you're curious of the valiance I can show you, wait


'Cause I forget all of this is obvious

We're entirely insane, they claim

They wanna climb into our brain waves


I know you're wondering how the two of us, we adapt these traits

I can teach you how we play

And you're curious how the brilliance controls you, wait


'Cause I forget all of this is obvious

We're entirely insane, they claim

They'd like to violate our brain waves


You seek desire

(Stop, think, show what you fear)

Our desire

(Stop, think, dying out there)

But, ooh, your attempt is useless

Ooh, your attempt is useless


Sway from the top of the ledge

Swim in a bottomless lake

It's true


We are entirely insane, we'd claim

You'd like to dive into our brain waves


You seek desire

(Stop, think, show what you fear)

Our desire

(Got made, flying out there)

Real desire

(Stop, think, shows we're losing)

True desire

(Stop, think I'm nowhere)


Ooh, your attempt is useless

Ooh, your attempt is useless

Ohms lyrics - Deftones

 We're surrounded

By debris of the past

And it's too late

To cause a change in the tides

So we slip into

Our hopeless sea of regret

As I stare


Through

The haunted maze in your eyes

Right through

Where I'll remain for all time


And time won't change this

This promise we made

Yeah, the time won't change this

It's how it'll stay


This is our time

We devour the days ahead

We've been possessed

By these changing times

As we slip on through

We promised to meet again

Somewhere


Through

The haunted maze in our minds

Right through

Where we shall remain for all time


Yeah, time won't change this

This promise we made

And time won't change this

We shall remain

"Gore" (2016)

Prayers / Triangles lyrics - Deftones

There's a new strange
Godless demon awake, inside me
There's a force divine
Terrorizing the angels I keep
While we dream

Prayers! (Prayers!)
Lay on the line (Lay on the line)
You will never be free
You will never be free
(Free, free, free)

I'm a true slave
To the fire and the air around you
While this curse divine
It's slowly rotting away, inside me
While we dream

Prayers! (Prayers!)
Lay on the line (Lay on the line)
You will never be free
You will never be free
(Free, free, free)
Triangles! (Triangles!)
Placed in your mind (Placed in your mind)
You will never be free
You will never be free

Beware [x4]

I will never walk this street again
The only time I feel I'm not alone
I pull my heart out, I wave it in the air

Prayers! (Prayers!)
Laid on the line (Lay on the line)
You will never be free
You will never be free
Triangles! (Triangles!)
Placed in your mind (Placed in your mind)
You will never be free
You will never be free

Prayers! (Prayers!)
Triangles! (Triangles!)
Prayers!
You will never be free
You will never be free

I will never walk this street again
The only time I feel I'm not alone
I pull my heart out, I wave it in the air
I pull my heart out, beware

Acid Hologram lyrics - Deftones

In the haze of your light we bathe and wane
You've surrounded our hearts again

You smother me in shapes in a secret praxis

You've showed me your charms and revealed your name
Blow the clouds from your mouth again

And smother me in shapes you'll reveal your secret side
Your light will fade and our hearts will sync in time your disguise will shift and reverse

In the wake of your plume we bathe and drink
You remind me of her again

Smother me in shapes and reveal your secret side
Your light will fade and our hearts will sync in time your disguise will shift and reverse

In time your light will fade and our hearts will sync in time your disguise will shift and reverse

Doomed User lyrics - Deftones

There went your time. Say goodbye now leave here
My fuse has expired fucking die just leave here

Powerless stuck in your web of shit
Open your eyes you only play yourself
Whoever's watching I hope they catch the drift
Collect your crown you're now the queen of filth

There went your life go and die I mean it
Loose and defiled you define the meaning

They're delusions don't deny it
Don't make this out to be something about you

I've been scared fucking repulsed by this
My only tale is one that I can't stand
Now I've become this core of rotted will
My heart is black and I will never feel

There say goodbye just retire from the Earth
You've been exiled take your body elsewhere
They're delusions don't deny it
Don't make this out to be something about you
Go waste your breath somewhere to someone new

Your castle has burned down on you
Your kingdom is burning down

They're delusions don't deny it
Don't make this out to be a thing about you

They're delusions don't deny it
Don't make this out to be a thing about you
Go waste your breath somewhere to someone new
