Where do I put the shame
It feels like a broken toy
I can't play with anymore
Where do I put the hate
To a pixilated screen
I can't watch anymore
All I know is that I'm here
Drifting somewhere in the vast
Somewhere in eternity
And I never want to leave
Where do I put the books
There's so many I could read
But they all are filled with lies
Where do I put all the lies
There's so many I could say
But it seems they're in the books
I have faith that you're out there
Living high up in the vast
Somewhere in eternity
And you're never gonna leave
Have I been telling lies to myself
Hold me now you know
I am so afraid to be at all
Have I been telling lies to myself
Hold me now you know
I am so afraid to love at all
I looked up and I saw the moon
Is it the same one that betrayed you
I looked up and I saw my place
I looked in and I felt no hate
Where do I put the love
Where do I put the love
Yeah, where do I put the love

Touched
Touched
You say that I am too
So much of what you say is true
I'll never find someone quite like you
Again
I'll never find someone quite like you
Like you
The razors and the dying roses plead
I don't leave you alone
The demi-gods and hungry ghosts of God
God knows I'm not at home
I'll never find someone quite like you
Again
I'll never find someone quite like you
Again
I, I looked into your eyes and saw
A world that does not exist
I looked into your eyes and saw
A world I wish I was in
I'll never find someone quite as touched
As you
I'll never love someone quite the way that I
Loved you
You say that I am too
So much of what you say is true
I'll never find someone quite like you
Again
I'll never find someone quite like you
Like you
The razors and the dying roses plead
I don't leave you alone
The demi-gods and hungry ghosts of God
God knows I'm not at home
I'll never find someone quite like you
Again
I'll never find someone quite like you
Again
I, I looked into your eyes and saw
A world that does not exist
I looked into your eyes and saw
A world I wish I was in
I'll never find someone quite as touched
As you
I'll never love someone quite the way that I
Loved you

Dirty Hole
I saw the grave stones
I saw nine year old boys
Somehow I knew
They hated me
You can live as long as you want to live
Lately all I want is to be in your hole
Sleep without a dream
As cold as it seems
It's my destiny
How many men have been
In your sacred hole
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men)
As I spread her thighs
My life flashes before my eyes
Soothing, disturbing
I'm intoxicated with fear
How many men have died
In your dirty hole
How many lay dead
How many men lay dead
From this killing hole
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men god)
I saw nine year old boys
Somehow I knew
They hated me
You can live as long as you want to live
Lately all I want is to be in your hole
Sleep without a dream
As cold as it seems
It's my destiny
How many men have been
In your sacred hole
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men)
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men)
As I spread her thighs
My life flashes before my eyes
Soothing, disturbing
I'm intoxicated with fear
How many men have died
In your dirty hole
How many lay dead
How many men lay dead
From this killing hole
(How many dead men god)
(How many dead men god)

Pretty When You Cry
You're made of my rib or baby
You're made of my sin
And I can't tell where
You lust ends
And where your love begins
I didn't want to hurt you baby
I didn't want to hurt you
I didn't want to hurt you
But you're pretty when you cry
And the moon gives me
Permission and I enter
Through her eyes
She's losing her virginity
And all her will to compromise
I didn't want to hurt you baby
I didn't want to hurt you
I didn't want to hurt you
But you're pretty when you cry
I didn't want to f*ck you baby
I didn't want to f*ck you
I didn't want to f*ck you
But you're pretty when you're mine
I didn't really love you baby
I didn't really love you
I didn't really love you
But I'm pretty when I lie
You hurt me baby
I hurt you baby
If you knew how much I love you
You would run away
But when I treat you bad
It always makes you want to stay
I didn't want to hurt you baby
I didn't want to hurt you baby
I didn't want to hurt you baby
I didn't want to hurt you baby
You're made of my sin
And I can't tell where
You lust ends
And where your love begins
I didn't want to hurt you baby
I didn't want to hurt you
I didn't want to hurt you
But you're pretty when you cry
And the moon gives me
Permission and I enter
Through her eyes
She's losing her virginity
And all her will to compromise
I didn't want to hurt you baby
I didn't want to hurt you
I didn't want to hurt you
But you're pretty when you cry
I didn't want to f*ck you baby
I didn't want to f*ck you
I didn't want to f*ck you
But you're pretty when you're mine
I didn't really love you baby
I didn't really love you
I didn't really love you
But I'm pretty when I lie
You hurt me baby
I hurt you baby
If you knew how much I love you
You would run away
But when I treat you bad
It always makes you want to stay
I didn't want to hurt you baby
I didn't want to hurt you baby
I didn't want to hurt you baby
I didn't want to hurt you baby

Im Dying
Jesus Christ
Are you the son of God
I want to know
You ask that I believe
Not one day goes by
That I don't compromise your love
For the cold love of the world
It's killing me through
My own evil pride
Not one day goes by
That I don't know that I'm dying
Jesus Christ
Are you the savior of the world
I want to see
But I still believe
Not one day goes by
That I don't realize
I know that no one will ever know
Where the flowers go
When they are gone
Not one day goes by that I don't
Know that I'm dying
I want to say
You all are too
I want to say
My love
I want to say
I want to say
You all are too
Are you the son of God
I want to know
You ask that I believe
Not one day goes by
That I don't compromise your love
For the cold love of the world
It's killing me through
My own evil pride
Not one day goes by
That I don't know that I'm dying
Jesus Christ
Are you the savior of the world
I want to see
But I still believe
Not one day goes by
That I don't realize
I know that no one will ever know
Where the flowers go
When they are gone
Not one day goes by that I don't
Know that I'm dying
I want to say
You all are too
I want to say
My love
I want to say
I want to say
You all are too

Flames
Close your eyes
Let me touch you now
Let me give you something
That is real
Close the door
Leave your fears behind
Let me give you
What you're giving me
You are the only thing
That makes me want to live at all
When I am with you
There's no reason to pretend that
When I am with you
I feel flames again
Just put me inside you
I would never ever leave
Just put me inside you
I would never ever leave
You
Let me touch you now
Let me give you something
That is real
Close the door
Leave your fears behind
Let me give you
What you're giving me
You are the only thing
That makes me want to live at all
When I am with you
There's no reason to pretend that
When I am with you
I feel flames again
Just put me inside you
I would never ever leave
Just put me inside you
I would never ever leave
You

Temptation
I went in the desert
I went searching for the truth
I stumbled across you and
I know you're not the truth
I went in the ocean
I went looking for some love
All I found is that I found
I haven't found enough
I stand alone now
I stand alone
But can you save me from myself
You are my temptation
You are my temptation
To do what I knew is wrong
You are my temptation
You are my temptation
To do what I knew is wrong
What I knew is wrong was you
You
I stand alone now
I stand alone
Can you save me from myself
Oh please
They've been killing children
And nobody seems to care
They've been laughing at my god
My god I wouldn't dare
Oh you are my temptation
You are my temptation
You are my temptation
Oh you are my temptation
You are my temptation
You are my temptation
I went searching for the truth
I stumbled across you and
I know you're not the truth
I went in the ocean
I went looking for some love
All I found is that I found
I haven't found enough
I stand alone now
I stand alone
But can you save me from myself
You are my temptation
You are my temptation
To do what I knew is wrong
You are my temptation
You are my temptation
To do what I knew is wrong
What I knew is wrong was you
You
I stand alone now
I stand alone
Can you save me from myself
Oh please
They've been killing children
And nobody seems to care
They've been laughing at my god
My god I wouldn't dare
Oh you are my temptation
You are my temptation
You are my temptation
Oh you are my temptation
You are my temptation
You are my temptation

Three Doors
They whisper words into my ears
One speaks of truth and
One speaks of my fears
My disabilities don't get in my way
I look to the future and live
Day to day
Three doors to go through
I only want the one
That leads to you
They say there's three doors to go through
I only want the one that leads to you
Because only one leads to you
And who's to blame
I could assume
The loneliness of my white room
I saw the circles
Inside the squares
And yet it can be so hard to be aware
Three doors to go through
I only want the one
That leads to you
They say there's three doors to go through
I only want the one that leads to you
Because only one leads to you
This your only chance at immortality
I'll give you strength
But I cannot give you the keys
This your only chance at immortality
I'll give you strength
But I cannot give you, not give you the keys
This your only chance at immortality
I'll give you strength
But I cannot give you the keys
Three doors to go through
I only want the one
That leads to you
They say there's three doors to go through
I only want the one that leads to you
Because only one leads to you
One speaks of truth and
One speaks of my fears
My disabilities don't get in my way
I look to the future and live
Day to day
Three doors to go through
I only want the one
That leads to you
They say there's three doors to go through
I only want the one that leads to you
Because only one leads to you
And who's to blame
I could assume
The loneliness of my white room
I saw the circles
Inside the squares
And yet it can be so hard to be aware
Three doors to go through
I only want the one
That leads to you
They say there's three doors to go through
I only want the one that leads to you
Because only one leads to you
This your only chance at immortality
I'll give you strength
But I cannot give you the keys
This your only chance at immortality
I'll give you strength
But I cannot give you, not give you the keys
This your only chance at immortality
I'll give you strength
But I cannot give you the keys
Three doors to go through
I only want the one
That leads to you
They say there's three doors to go through
I only want the one that leads to you
Because only one leads to you

The Niles Edge
My name spells joy
I can't remember darkness
Except a dream
You saved my life
Do you wonder what you saw
Floating softly at the Niles edge
Wandering eyes
Commitments never can last
It feels so cold
To know our name
I've never known you
And I never will
What difference
Does indifference takes
Do you regret what you saw
Floating softly at the Niles edge
Alone
Alone
Do you regret
Regret what you did
Running softly
Softly from the Niles edge
Alone
Alone
I can't remember darkness
Except a dream
You saved my life
Do you wonder what you saw
Floating softly at the Niles edge
Wandering eyes
Commitments never can last
It feels so cold
To know our name
I've never known you
And I never will
What difference
Does indifference takes
Do you regret what you saw
Floating softly at the Niles edge
Alone
Alone
Do you regret
Regret what you did
Running softly
Softly from the Niles edge
Alone
Alone

Somewhere Else To Be
Every time that I cry out
No one ever comes to me
Ever y time that I reach out
No one ever rescues me
I wish I could hide from everyone
Is there somewhere else to be
Is there somewhere else to be
Take me in
I want out
That's all I need
I wish I could run from everything
Is there somewhere else to be
Is there somewhere else to be
Take me in
I want out
That's all I need
No one ever comes to me
Ever y time that I reach out
No one ever rescues me
I wish I could hide from everyone
Is there somewhere else to be
Is there somewhere else to be
Take me in
I want out
That's all I need
I wish I could run from everything
Is there somewhere else to be
Is there somewhere else to be
Take me in
I want out
That's all I need

You
Your dress looks good on you my love
And your house looks like it's heaven
Why are there
So many people outside of it
Everything you have will be
You can't take anything with you
Except the love
The love I have for you
Your eyes look like they're from god
And your face looks like it's from god
Why are you
Going to be
Outside eternity
Everything we know will be
You can't take anything with you
Except the love
The love I have for you
I know you want to
And your house looks like it's heaven
Why are there
So many people outside of it
Everything you have will be
You can't take anything with you
Except the love
The love I have for you
Your eyes look like they're from god
And your face looks like it's from god
Why are you
Going to be
Outside eternity
Everything we know will be
You can't take anything with you
Except the love
The love I have for you
I know you want to

Visual Audio Sensory Theater is the debut album by the band VAST, released on April 28, 1998 by Elektra Records. The album mixed samples of Benedictine monks of the Abbey of Saint-Maur and Le Mystère Des Voix Bulgares, with an 18-piece orchestra, guitars, and electronics.
Jon Crosby originally signed onto Elektra Records when he was only 17, and recorded his demo EP, VAST Is... which featured certain songs to be featured on their debut in an unfinished form. He also traveled across the world and recorded demos of world choirs that he used in various songs on the album, which gave the album its trademark world-music theme.
The first single released from the album was "Pretty When You Cry". Led by a supporting music video, it gained modest success on the music charts. However, the band's and the album's popularity didn't skyrocket until the second single, "Touched", was featured in a film soundtrack and the music video was put in play on MTV. No other singles were released for the disc, and "Touched" is still VAST's most famous song, it being featured in the Angel soundtrack, Angel: Live Fast, Die Never, the companion CD to the Everworld book series, and as a song featured in WrestleMania XXV. The track also appears in the movie The Beach but is not featured in the soundtrack.
Other album tracks featured in various media include "Pretty When You Cry" played during the end credits of the German film We are the night and is included in its soundtrack CD; "Flames", which was used in the German film Summer Storm; and "Here", which has been used in two episodes of Angel. The songs "Here", "Dirty Hole", "I'm Dying", and "Temptation" were also used in the unaired pitch video for Angel. "Touched" contains elements of the song "Pilentze Pee", sung by the Bulgarian State Television Female Vocal Choir. "Touched" was featured in the surfing film Step into Liquid.
