she carries herself like a pretty woman
maybe she was one once
do i see my future in her presence
i can't stop staring
a shopping cart is all she has now
and a bleeding heart never paid the bills and
beauty fades
down on sunset boulevard
no one stops to look at her
no one notices her figure
men once fought to get her name
her hair was long and colored blonde
her lashes curled up to the sun
with black mascara
ooh, keep your feet focussed forward on the sidewalk
on the stars
on another day
cause beauty fades
like the sun in march like the rain in may
beauty fades
like the secret truth of a summer day
beauty fades
i like to drive into the hills of laurel canyon
i like the houses and the trees
i like the money in my bank account
and it's running out
but i'll worry about that another day
as beauty fades
ooh, people they don't want you when you're ugly
after they've taken everything you had to offer
away away away
ya beauty fades
like the sun in march like the rain in may
beauty fades
like the secret truth of a summer day
beauty fades
summertime i watch the girls go by
dressed in their summer clothes
maybe there's another truth awaiting them
i will never know
they wait they wait
they are waiting for someone to say
i choose you
and then carry them away carry them away
away away away
ya beauty fades
like the sun in march like the rain in may
beauty fades
like the secret truth of a summer day
beauty fades
beauty fades
and pretty girls do what you can while you're still pretty
the lines around the eyes are the to show
so hide your age
I'm sitting here frozen in this bed I made
Considering the weight of the bricks I laid
Now that I'm through
One by one, sealed every crack that I could slip between
To find my way back
Find my way back home to you
I'm burning all my bridges
With these matches I light
To illuminate my path
To what is right
And even if it's true
What they say
That you can't go back home
Once you've cast it away
I would still have left tonight
You know, baby
I would be with you if I could
To trade my flesh for your bones
I would, I would, I would, I would, I would
You know, baby
I would be with you if I could
To trade my flesh for your bones
I would, I would, I would, I would, I would
I carry with me, on my way
All the ghosts of all the love
That I let slip away
The heavy weight of promises made
That if I could exonerate
I might just lift off today
I'm burning all my bridges
With these matches I light
To illuminate my path
To what is right
And even if it's true
What they say
That you can't go back home
Once you've cast it away
I would still have left tonight
You know, baby
I would be with you if I could
To trade my flesh for your bones
I would, I would, I would, I would, I would
You know, baby
I would be with you if I could
To trade my flesh for your bones
I would, I would, I would, I would, I would
I chased your memory from my mind
But every song I write is just
A wish to find you, near or far
Through all the tears and all the time
That I have been running blind
I still ain't got to where you are
And I'm burning all my bridges
With these matches I light
To illuminate my path
To what is right
And even if it's true
What they say
That you can't go back home
Once you've cast it away
I would still have left tonight
You know, baby
I would be with you if I could
To trade my flesh for your bones
I would, I would, I would, I would, I would
You know, baby
I would be with you if I could
To trade my flesh for your bones
Morning comes too soon
I was into you
And there is so much
I want to tell you
Before you go
Take time, take time
Take mine
Take time, take time
Take mine...
Searching for love
Couldnt get enough of your eyes
They see into mine
Know my truth
Know my lies
Take time, take time
Take mine
Take time, take time
Take mine...
Why does it always have to end?
I want to stay here with love
And watch the flowers,
From my bedroom window,
Grow without us
So much I wanted to tell you...
Take time, take time
Take mine
Take time, take time
Roll into your town and I?m walking around
Got some extra time, think I?ll throw some money down
And you follow me around and you?re asking for the time
You're asking what I found, think I?m gonna rob you blind
Maybe it?s the tattoo on my arm that I drew
While I was bored waiting tables in New York
A heart and two flowers intertwined with a vine
I can see your point, I can see your point
And up here, I am who I am
And if you don?t like it then fuck you, man
I?m not a thief and a whore
Please don?t follow me around
Next time I?m shopping in your store
And up here, I?m making you aware
That if you don?t like me, well, I don?t care
I?ll be exactly who I am and if you got a problem with it
Well, that?s your problem, man
After I?ve paid, count the money that you made
Then you go to the show, like to be entertained
And I get up on the stage, trained monkey in a cage
And it?s just another day, just another day
And I can see you from my place on the stage
Third row center aisle, hot blond with you, all smiles
And you got another woman but that?s in another town
And you can?t wait 'til this is over
Gonna lay that honey down
And up here, I am who I am
And if you don?t like it then fuck you, man
I?m not a thief and a whore
Please don?t follow me around
Next time I?m shopping in your store
And up here I?m making you aware
That if you don?t like me, well, I don?t care
I?ll be exactly who I am and if you got a problem with it
Well, that?s your problem, man
And your good values taught you how to behave
Who to treat kindly and who to enslave
And like all good men, you still fall to the floor
When a great big rack and a ripe round ass
Walk through that door
And up here, I am who I am
And if you don?t like it then fuck you, man
I?m not a thief and a whore
Please don?t follow me around
Next time I?m shopping in your store
And up here I?m making you aware
That if you don?t like me, well, I don?t care
I?ll be exactly who I am and if you got a problem with it
So you made, you made a few mistakes
You're not alone, people mess up everyday
Take the knife out from your back
And send them home
You don't need them anyways
So you thought he was your friend
You told them all, now it's all that you can do
To just sit there by the phone
Wait for a call that will never come for you
It's not your fault, you're wonderful
And now you've done it again
What more can you say
Just turn and walk the other way
Sometimes, some things just fall apart
There?s a million ways to break
To break my heart, it's alright
As I look into the past
I see it all and it can't be rearranged
All the times I?ve been up against the wall
All those times that nothing changed
Looking into the past makes me want to scream
And now you've done it again
What more can you say
Just turn and walk the other way
Sometimes, some things just fall apart
There?s a million ways to break
To break my heart, it's alright
Much too late to say goodbye
Tell me why you made me cry
Even as you walk away, I wish you would stay
You're wonderful, you're beautiful
And now you've done it again
What more can you say
Just turn and walk the other way
Sometimes, some things just fall apart
There?s a million ways to break
I watched you sleeping
And I saw the very best in you
And thats the reason
I keep calling you the way that I do
I know
You said
It was only
A one night
Thing
I guess
It was more for me
And Im
Too dense to realize
Too star struck by your eyes
To see
That I
Was just a piece of ass
Was nothing that would last
My one night stand
And now I realize
Why I have not done this before
Not only for the fact
My therapist thinks Im a whore
I told her I
Really thought that you were
Special
For some guy
That I met online
Its amazing how you changed your tone
Amazing how you lured me in with everything you said
guess that I dont understand the meaning of the word
on the day you came to
did you know you had come
did you know why you came
could you feel where you're from
did you ask it out loud
when no one could hear you
did you cry all alone
when everyone feared you
i ask you this
mostly for me
cause people like us
can go quietly
when they told you to stop
did you want to keep going
when they pushed you to tears
could you feel the pain showing
did you know you were drifting
from the moment you drifted
and could you feel your heart shifting
before it had shifted,
i ask you this
mostly for me
cause people like us
can go quietly
i ask you this
mostly for me
Everybody knows death don't mean to take,
Like a rattlesnake we come to find.
Take me by the hand it ain't psysical,
Running from it's demands, we try
And everybody knows that is just the way it takes us
Lifts us up & makes us leave the ones we love
So, take me for a ride, like a wildfire,
Cross an ever-wilder path of light
And I'll try my best now not to fight,
Willingly beside, you're what I want tonight...
Take me, love-drunk, like a party-hopping
Teenage whore
No, I ain't afraid now, I'm sunk & you leave
Me coming back for more
And everybody's trying to make some conversation
Maybe find a reason, some way to hold on
So take me for a ride like a wildfire,
Cross an ever-wilder path of light
And I'll try my best now not to fight,
Willingly beside; you're what I want tonight...
Wind cries underneath the dark sighs
Mixing with the moonlight, all intoxicate me
Lift me up & make me see the other side of what's right
I know I can love you tonight...
I believe in taking, pushing to the limits
Like a candle burning too bright
And you know it's made me what I am
Maybe you don't understand, this is my life
And now you're saying:"Why kid, all these conversations,
Making me so tired", I want to know you know me
So take me for a ride like a wildfire
Cross an ever-wilder path of light
And I'll try my best now not to fight
Willingly beside, you're what I want tonight
Please don't leave me waiting
I've waited for too long now
Take me where I wanna go
jenny i think you've lost your mind
jenny the friends you thought you had
have left you far behind
jenny there's truth in unkind words
sometimes
take what you need
and leave the rest
for someone else to find
now you wanna show it to the world
you wanna show them
just what happens
when you hurt a girl
jenny i think you lost your mind
jenny i think you lost your mind
take that trophy from your hand
and just put it down
you can
we all have to lose sometimes
it'll be better in a year
you'll forget everything
you thought
was so important here
jenny i know even the darkest clouds
will disappear
now you wanna show it to the world
you wanna show them
just what happens
when you hurt a girl
jenny i think you lost your mind
jenny i think you lost your mind
take that trophy from your hand
and just put it down
you can
we all have to lose sometimes
we all have to lose sometimes
Today is a very special day
It feels like the beginning
of something more
And we are standing on the edge
Of all that we've imagined
In lives before
Keep it up, the stars are close to your head now
It's magical time that we live in
Keep it up, the stars are close to your head now
It's magic I tell you it's happening
My friends there's something in the air
It's not imagination
I see it everywhere
A state impossible to feign
Suspended animation
This hope that we retain
Keep it up, the stars are close to your head now
It's magical time that we live in
Keep it up, the stars are close to your head now
It's magic I tell you it's happening
Don't be afraid for us
It's not too late for us
To take it, make it into something
We can save us
Keep it up, the stars are close to your head now
It's magical time that we live in
Keep it up, the stars are close to your head now
I wanna make enough money to run my life
From the top of a mountain in the dead of night
It'll be you and me and a couple of dogs
And the rest of the world can just move on
Cos I got what I want & I got what I need
& there's nothing in this world but you for me
And there'll be fish in the lake
And there'll be chickens on the lawn
And we'll never go to sleep
And I'll never even yawn
You'll tell me lots of stories about when I was old
And I wasn't too much fun then
From all the stories I've been told
And I got what I want
And I got what I need
And there's nothing in this world but you for me
So, tell me I'm the only one
Nobody else could ever come close
I want to replace all of your memories
When you close your eyes you'll see only me someday
Someday...
Well, we can sit up on the mountain
I can hold your hand
We'll forget all that we learned, we'll forget our plans
We'll see things more clearly in the absence of the light
&we;'ll realize there's nothing more than this tonight
Now I got what I want
And I got what I need
And there's nothing in this world but you for me
Yes, I got what I want
And I got what I need
And there's nothing in this world but you for me
So, tell me I'm the only one
Nobody else could ever come close
Tell me I'm the only one
Nobody else could ever come close
Tell me I'm the only one
Rain comes outin the middle of the sunshine
Been a long time since I was feeling fine
With no one making my rules
And no one looking out for me
Sometimes I get a little frustrated
Been led off-course by these feeling I'm faking
Close these open doors
When I see what's on the inside
Different situation,
Change the story, change the name
Different destination
But the journey feels the same everytime
And you were there for me
When you wanted to be
Then you disappear conveniently
And all you ever did was cause me pain
So, I'm walking away
And I don't need you to know I'm OK
Turn it around that's what I'm good for
Take it all the way&I;'ll come back with more
Taught me well how to survive
You made me a survivor
Didn't know your teachings
Would come back to you this way
Different situation
But the story still remains the same
And you were there for me
When you wanted to be
Then you disappear conveniently
And all you ever did was cause me pain
So, I'm walking away
And I don't need you to know I'm OK
And the fun was fun
But I needed you more
In the darkest hours
When the fun was over
To take this fear away
And be here like you said you were
Well, it's cold sometimes
But the feeling's fleeting
And these memories live
With a little reheating
Take these memories of things
I never asked to know
No phone calls home
Cos they don't help me anymore
Relieving your guilt's
Not what I'm here for
And all you ever did
Was cause me pain
So, I'm walking away
And I don't need you
To Know I'm OK
I don't need you
To Know I'm OK
I don't need you
You can drive, you can drive
You can drive down the 405
To the 101 to my house
And these highways are in so many songs
I couldn't count them all, I tried
So much sad history described in a ride
And when I told you I was happy I lied
I lied, I lied, I lied
And I've got Vicodin, do you wanna come over?
I know it's a long drive from Malibu
I got a pocket full of pills and not one lover
And I'm feeling so bad and so good
I don't know what to do
And I'll take my chances now
'Cause I can't go back, I'm out too far
And I'm thinking, I'm thinking
I'm thinking that you know how it feels
So get in your car and drive
And I can tell you that I'll try
I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
And I've got vicodin, do you wanna come over?
I know it's a long drive from Malibu
I got a pocket full of pills and not one lover
And I'm feeling so bad and so good
I don't know what to do
It's in your face, I know that place you're going to
I'll follow you, I'll meet you there
Don't bring a thing for me
I'll take care, I'll take care
And I've got Vicodin, do you wanna come over?
I know it's a long drive from Malibu
I got a pocket full of pills and not one lover
And I'm feeling so bad and so good
The wayward wind winds home at last
Feels the same and bends the mast
The moon rose backward till its past
Time the trickster ticking fast
Oh the faces empty places we have been
Try to so hard to find the moment love begins
October comes the colors change
The trees shake off their summer chains
Nothing ventured nothing gained
Nothing censored or explained
Of the faces empty places we have been
Try so hard to find the moment love begins
If were to slip like a sailing ship
Like a fingertip on your skin
Like my fingertip on your silky skin
Like a sailing boat on a summer wind
On a summer wind
Oh the faces empty place we have been
Try so hard to find the moment love begins
Oh the faces empty place we have been
Try so hard to find the moment love begins
The moment love beings
Always said your prayers,
Like a good boy should, like a good boy should,
Fingers pressed against the cold glass window watching stars so free, stars so free
You would run but where,
Even if you could, even if you could,
You could try but youd never run fast enough to not be seen, not be seen
Every Sunday morning
You would go to your church
in your Sunday clothes,
Daddy leads a choir of angels, if theyd only know
But theyll never know, never know
The name of god is never taken in vain
But the hand of god is known to cause a multitude of pain,
When he speaks through your daddy
And he isnt very pleased
So shut your foul ungrateful mouth and get down on your knees
And have you seen my wounded Jesus
Bloodied son of a preachers mean touch
Nothing like the cold shoulder of a pious man to
Show you what true faith in gods love cant do
Mama looks away
You know she got a dose of that religion yesterday
Her sacrifices made
Will someday set you free, set you free
She will not betray
Her promises in front of god naively prayed,
After years of living without questioning
She still believes, she still believes, she still believes
And have you seen my wounded Jesus
Bloodied son of a preachers mean touch
Nothing like the cold shoulder of a pious man to
Show you what true faith in gods love cant do
And I can blame his painful indecision
On the cruel unyielding arm of his religion
Dont know whether to stay a part of worldly things
Or close his eyes and take a breath and spread his wings
And fly away, fly away, fly away, fly away, flay away
.
Always said your prayers,
Like a good boy should, like a good boy should,
Oh my God this is our life
We're living like their victims
Living like the captives
Tired of sitting thinking dark thoughts
Contemplating motion
Time to become active
Do you know that your lies
Burn as bright as the bombs
You're dropping on the innocent?
And we've got something good to show you
And you don't wanna miss this
You don't wanna miss this one
How will you answer the questions
How will you defend
The murders you've instructed
We know there are many reasons
People take to killing
Reasons they've constructed
Will you try to deny
All the damage you've done
Or will you try to bow out gracefully
And we've got something good to show you
And you don't wanna miss this
You don't wanna miss this one
You don't wanna be late for the party
Advertisers cash in on all the beauty
The power of all humanity admitting that we got it wrong
We got it wrong again
And we the people have now spoken
Pack up your belongings
Sail across the ocean
And face all that you have created
In the name of god's love
A thin shield for your hatred
You can never repair
All the damage you've done
But we'll rebuild even stronger
Cause we've got something good to show you
And you don't wanna miss this
Lead the way, I'm waiting for you
Since the day that I first saw you
Seems like I've been living someone else's life
And I hope that you can help me see
That every passing moment's not passing me by
When I see it through your eyes
I believe...
And someday soon, you'll see
This isn't easy
This isn't easy for me
Set you free tonight
This isn't easy
This isn't easy but it's right
Caught between the space of you & me
I know I'm better letting you be
And lately I've been someone else's fight
And I know that there will come a time
When you will leave me far behind
I'll try not to care,
I'll tell myself it's nothing personal
And someday soon, you'll see
This isn't easy
This isn't easy for me
Set you free tonight
This isn't easy
This isn't easy
But, it's right...
And I know that I will someday see
The meaning of this life of you & me
Looking back
on santa monica
there's a store that sells trees plants and more
a big green forest on the pavement
right next to the needle exchange
the people walking by
their paths may cross
but none know why
the streets are littered
leaves and rubber
left from last night
now uncovered
and how can i be down
when smiling faces all around say
how can i be down
when smiling faces all around say
smile smile smile
the billboard shows her face
a pretty girl all lines erased
she's cynical and strange
we'll never know just what's the case
why's she so skinny
is she flakey
did she wake up feeling shakey
from a late night with musicians
trying out some new positions
and how can i be down
when smiling faces all around say
how can i be down
when smiling faces all around say
smile smile smile
smile smile smile
I see the lights are turning and I look outside
The stars are burning through this changing time
It could have been anything we want
It's fine, salvation was just a passing thought
It was just a passing thought
Don't wait, act now
This amazing offer won't last long
It's only a chance to pave the path we're on
I know there are more exciting things to talk about
And in time we'll sort it out
And in time we'll sort it out
And though they say it's possible
To me, I don't see how it's probable
I see the course we're on spinning farther
From what I know I'll hold on
Tell me that you won't let go
Tell me that you won't let go
And the truth is such a funny thing
With all these people keep on telling me
They know what's best and what to be frightened of
And all the rest are wrong
They know nothing about us
They know nothing about us
And though they say it's possible
To me, I don't see how it's probable
I see the course we're on spinning farther
From what I know, I'll hold on
Tell me that you won't let go
Tell me that you won't let go
I'm not alright
And though they say it's possible
To me, I don't see how it's probable
I see the course we're on spinning farther
From what I know I'll hold on
Tell me that you won't let go
And though they say it's possible
To me, I don't see how it's probable
I see the course we're on spinning farther
From what I know I'll hold on
Tell me that you won't let go
Tell me that you won't let go
This could be something beautiful
Combine our love into something wonderful
But times are tough I know
I saw her just the other day
See what you mean, yeah, she's okay
Seems like a sweet enough girl but she's not me
You take the lead, I'll take your hand
I'll follow you, just like we planned
Up to your room and lock the door
Not sorry
'Cause I can see it's true that you adore me
Let's not leave this room till tomorrow morning
'Cause I don't care about your plans
Don't care if you're somebody's man
I look into your eyes, I know you want me
So tell her anyway you can, just let her go
She'll understand and if she doesn't that's too bad
Not sorry
I'm not normally quite this bold
I've been a good girl so I'm told
Not usually the type to take what's not mine
But I look at you and I can see
That you're the only one for me
Let's not pretend it's something else
I'd rather, we not fool ourselves
And if she's sad I've got some words of comfort
She's better off without some one who doesn't want her
'Cause I don't care about your plans
Don't care if you're somebody's man
I look into your eyes, I know you want me
So tell her anyway you can, just let her go
She'll understand and if she doesn't that's too bad
Not sorry
And I believe in circumstances
Trust in fate and take your chances
And I know that love is all we need
And you'll find that love with me
And you'll find that love with me
'Cause I don't care about your plans
Don't care if you're somebody's man
I look into your eyes, I know you want me
So tell her anyway you can, just let her go
She'll understand and if she doesn't that's too bad
Not sorry
'Cause I don't care about your plans
Don't care if you're somebody's man
I look into your eyes, I know you want me
So tell her anyway you can, just let her go
She'll understand and if she doesn't that's too bad
you're the closest thing i know
to love so let me in
the moon is glowing white
and time's a-wasting
and don't you want to know
what happens when
we start at the start
before it becomes that thing
that broke my heart in two
we've been here before
that place where we dwell until
we find we both want something more
so let's pretend that for a moment
we have never loved before
touch my skin
and i will kiss your lips and
we can both ignore
that feeling of wait,
what happens in time
i know this is cool for now
but i just might change my mind
and leave
you there in the dust
i know that you loved me a lot
If I could stay just for a minute more
Then I could say all the things I've been saving up for
Never enough time in the day&moments; like this
come a moment too late
And, there's so many things that I don't understand
And I'm standing in line with my open hand
Waiting for some explanation
Something to hold onto
And the minutes of the day turn to hours of the week
And time's slippin' away & we don't hardly speak
And I'm feeling so lost deep in my soul
And if I could spend some of the time I'm saving
I can imagine your face the minute you see me
coming home
It's only a dream cos you're far away
And time spent on dreams could be time saved
And there's so many things that I don't understand
And I'm standing in line with my open hand
Waiting for some explanation, something to hold onto
And the minutes of the day turn to hours of the week
And time's slipping away & we don't hardly speak
And I'm feeling so lost deep in my soul
Listen closely tell me everything's alright
I'm putting all of my trust in you
So, please don't let me fall too far tonight
When there's so many things that I don't understand
And I'm standing in line with my open hand
Waiting for some explanation, something to hold onto
And the minutes of the day turn to hours of the week
And time's slipping away & we don't hardly speak
And I'm feeling so lost deep in my soul...
And If I could look,
Then I could find
Some of the simple sweet words
This city's just waiting to crack
This house is not a home
This is me under attack
This is my self control
And I thought you were somebody else
I thought you were somebody else
I thought you were somebody
I thought you were somebody else
I thought you were somebody else
I thought you were somebody
And if you're looking to me for salvation I'm fresh out
And if you're wanting to vent your frustration
What about when I look at you
I don't see what I used to see
If I want a better life
I'm sorry, forgive me
You're angry, you should be
I'm happy
Why don't we just take a step back
Examine what you are?
You're where the line goes slack
You're a fantastic scar
And you thought I was somebody else
You thought I was somebody else
You didn't know I was somebody
You thought I was somebody else
You thought I was somebody else
You didn't know I was somebody
And if you're looking to me for salvation I'm fresh out
And if you're wanting to vent your frustration
What about when I look at you
I don't see what I used to see
If I want a better life
I'm sorry, forgive me
You're angry, you should be
I'm happy
I'm happy
When you've smoked your last cigarette
And the lights go out
And you're pacing around in your room
Thinking of things you shouldn't think about
And there's no one to hold your hand
Help you figure it out
And you think nobody understands
No one has been where you are now
I'll be waiting when you are on your own
Yes, I'll be waiting when you are far from home
When nothing's sacred you'll never be alone
No, I'll be waiting here
When you're down to your last bit of hope
Feel like breaking apart
And you swear that nobody else
Could ever love you the way that you are
I'll be waiting when you are on your own
Yes, I'll be waiting when you are far from home
When nothing's sacred
You'll never be alone
No, I'll be waiting here
When the day is short
And the night is long
And your pillow feels like the hardest stone
When your head is hot
And your heart is cold
You are not alone
You are not alone, no
I'll be waiting when you are on your own
Yes, I'll be waiting when you are far from home
When nothing's sacred you'll never be alone
No, I'll be waiting here
I'll be waiting here
Feels like clouds today
The sky is gray
The sun been hiding for a while
People walk by the window of his car
Look in, lock eyes
Betray their thoughts with a smile
'Cause you know your gaze is cold and distant
Your stare could chill in an instant
This January air
But why refuse an old friend's offer
For a warm ride in a car
From here to there
He's inside in a store up the street and you wait in the car with too much time to think
Your brain is playing movies of past, present, and future
You made up your mind, you know what you need to do here
Aching for freedom and peace you chose your path
Crafting the life you someday hoped would come together as a work of art
Now it remains
Unfinished abstract images
On bits of canvas
Scattered round your heart
You had some laughs while they lasted
Some joy before you cast it down
Fleeting moments, like bubbles that float through the air
Then pop when they hit the ground
Now you're tired of bubbles and dreams
And magical moments that burst at the seams
And old faces who swear you remain friends
All the while knowing no one really knows you in the end
And now you're writing goodbye letters
On the armrest of the backseat of a stranger's car
You're writing goodbye letters on the armrest of the backseat of a stranger's car
Goodbye
goodbye
goodbye
goodbye
Im sitting here frozen in this bed I made
Considering the weight of the bricks I laid now that Im through
One by one sealed every crack that I could slip between to find my way back
Find my way back home to you
And Im burning all my bridges
with these matches I light
To illuminate my path to what is right
And even if its true what they say
that you cant go back home
once youve cast it away
I would still have left tonight
You know baby I would be with you if I could
To trade my flesh for your bones
I would, I would, I would, I would, I would
I carry with me on my way
All the ghosts of all the love
that I let slip away
The heavy weight of promises made
That if I could exonerate
I might just lift off today
And Im burning all my bridges
with these matches I light
To illuminate my path to what is right
And even if its true what they say
that you cant go back home
once youve cast it away
I would still have left tonight
You know baby I would be with you if I could
To trade my flesh for your bones
I would, I would, I would, I would, I would
I chased your memory from my mind
But every song I write is just a wish to find you, near or far
Through all the tears and all the time
That I been running blind
I still aint got to where you are
And Im burning all my bridges
with these matches I light
To illuminate my path to what is right
And even if its true what they say
that you cant go back home
once youve cast it away
I would still have left tonight
You know baby I would be with you if I could
To trade my flesh for your bones
Sear unfolding flame the hearths of east
Dawn ordained revives the trails of the ones that seek
No light serene nor sight relieved
condone the coldest deeds
but promise of shadow that secrets keep
Trace the silver of the moon...
Castaways, palefires light and mortal child
To realms of night, in realms we hide
Paths you tread are paths disguised
No streams follow old rivers bed
Trees bear leaves ten autumns swept
Here in shadow that secret's kept
Trace the silver of the moon...
Dark is the realm we sought
so dies the silver hope we wrought
dark and silent
no need to hide, no shade from light,
what shadow will then you find inside
Bleeding wood cleaves the grey
Fill breath of fear the sails of men
Barren horizons away
Black shores there lay
Home aeons astray
Release of vows that you flee is vow sworn to the sea
Redress of soul set free is soul sworn to the sea
Howls of tempest winds hasten
Dragged from wells of deepest descent
Where weeping sky ends
Light heaven sent
Forges waves as gods revenge
Release of vows that you flee is vow sworn to the sea
Redress of soul set free is soul sworn to the sea
Rise, cold Valkyrie white,
with frothing wings voracious tide
Drown beneath waves I'm sworn
Across the fields red banners lead
Honored fallen stride
Towards the woods where still rivers meet
Feet first they ride
The peal, the pain, the cross, the shame
Fade the wraiths of war
No fatal wound slay searing stain
One that soul once bore
Feast the flesh of the beast
Indulge these spoils with greed
Inside the woods ten circles lay
Sylvan shrine of old
They dance, they pray the sun to flee away
Feast no light behold
The gift, the horn, the oath once sworn
Opiation for palate
They call, and heed the faceless horned
Regale served in shade
Bare the sin, the sun parched skin
Slavish shields of god
They gorge, the bare the flame within
Indulge on pagan blood
Disgrace, the scorn and soul reborn
Heathen star burns strong
Leave chains of flesh to house forlorn
Gods halls where they belong
Feast the flesh of the beast
Hearken dead walls the tale of lost decade
When the reign of realms was passed to the son the fate
shall so dictate
One of us prevails
The one who indites the blessed annals, whose name wont
fade away
The soil and men shall wield thy grace, the mark that
wont decay
One of us shall prevail
The ruin and fall of kin
your futile deeds repelled
beheaded bricks for my pedestal
of dominion excelled
Dominate, decimate, burn where fields revive
Severe the line of rule divine, be praised as patricide
Lies we shall recite
For my name is the lord and the vengeange is mine
Lies they shall deny
Engrave the deeds, so deep it bleeds, my legacy
enshrine
Hearken walls the tale of lost
as age of men dies away
Cruel deeds, so deep they bleed
but scars will heal, marks decay
Thrones will fall, no dead recall
only stones are here to stay
No cairns will tell, barrows yell

Black Souls' Crucifixion
In maze of torment
Devil's existence
No way to leave this closed circle
Creeping in lies and fire
The final breathe
Last chapter begins
But it will never be finished
Unholy procession
Thrashed, crucified and mad
Forever in the Underground
Hail Satan, full of might,
Our allegiance is with thee.
Cursed are they, the god adorers,
And cursed are the worshippers of the Nazarene.
Ave Satanas, ave Satanas
Unholy Satan, bringer of enlightenment,
Lend us thy power, now and throughout our lives.
Endless glory shall be given.
Lord of hell, show us thy way.
Ave Satanas, ave Satanas
The archaic curse
Cold and antihuman
Breath of evil centuries
Death, destruction and mayhem
In the time before the time
The most terrible creatures wait
Gods of all gods
Their terror reign comes
Worship From Chaos - no fucking priests
Worship From Chaos - death, terror & hell
Earth to earth ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
You hear these words from me.
Trapped down in fire, rest your soul in flames.
Eternal torment, rot for eternity.
Take your souls,
flames get higher,
Rebirth below,
Hand in hand we die.
See the earth burn on Judgment Day.
Death of sinners, flesh and mind decays.
Burning bones, stench of melting flesh,
Eternal torment, marching into hell.
Take your souls,
flames get higher,
Rebirth below,
Watching your own death.
Earth to earth, ashes to ashes dust to dust.
Fall to the pit of hell
Heretic and masochistic field
Denial of the holy spirit
Black blood rules this world
Message from Belial
Living horror comes from darkness
Possessed legions spread
This might breath of sulphur
Monsters move from the crypts
Rotting air full of flying worms
Dig your heart of be too late
Belial has just talked
Hell manifests power
Worshiping its only Lord
Dark angels summon in fire ring
church of judas and kain
serpent's crown
insurrection of medusa
damnation of the forever damned ones
immortal dungeon chapel
build by the hands of the dead
mutilated poets and heroes
vanity of the underworlds
gods - the fallen ones
gods - he forgotten ones
legions of forgotten beings
gathered and bewitched in stone abyss
abyss of the underground - be glorified
abyss of the underground - streams of lava and evil
eruptions, explosions and fire
lords of death and liquid metal
sculptors of souls, conjurer of flames
Deathlust...
Panzer divisions of Ashur
Ruins, dust and rivers of blood remain
Skinned usurpers
All enemies impaled
Deathlust...
For the glory of Ashur
God of the gods, humans and the earth
Days of glory of Nineveh and Kaichu
Holy cities of the holy nation
Emperors of Four Corners of the World
Imperium of fright and horror
Famine for blood, divisions are still ready
symphony of hell's dungeons
screams of tortured souls
black mass prayers of fallen angels
ritual of fire and sulfur
false divinity buried alive
anthems of slaughtered usurpers
these ltongiless and eyeless creatures
Contaminated waves of infernal
Cruel radiation deforms morbid souls
Contaminated waves of infernal
Streams of evil conquer
Infernal Waves...
Infernal Waves...
Infernal Waves...
Wing of the god that slave and burn
spiting on these faces that have no image
this fire will never end
now and after your death
through mist and (...) nighty
On the knees with head under your foot
In humble bow and adoration
Licking the Devil's mark on our burst
I am like a snake - Your only servant
You are my all
I was born in the sign of the witch
my whore is my witch and my altar
her womb is my cup
her body is my food
this is my testimony
i am the flesh wizard
to slave and torture
i am the sex wizard
to worship the witch
i am the devil's wizard
to possess her soul
i am the death's wizard
to rule her life
hordes of mutilated lambs
groan psalms and rot
but here i am the witch and the wizard
Death, darkness and no emotions
Winds of war that bring hate
Hermetic evil spreads its realms
Total annihilation, pure total death
Shades of last bestial warfare
Toxic, nuclear and biological contamination
No light under black clouds
Burial death's masturbation
Life reduced to bacteria of Anthrax
And tones of cocaine
Execution of every independent form
Streams of ancient life flowing down below visions of the
past
enter your mind the past goes by as you sleep at night
Journey of forgotten souls through the ancient night
walking through
as you scream temfied those who once were cry out to you
Gods speak in my name
Entities of Uranus shall reap this fucking earth
Prophecies that enrapture me
Ones who fell with make you bleed
Scorched lands are dying
Liquid sandstorms they flagellate the earth
Master - purify the sin of living
Father Orion turned to be radiant
Flames torture the promised Land
Centuries ago I've celebrated them
Minutemen are screaming and spreading spell
crucified, impaled and beheaded corpses
tortured and devoured souls
legions of pentagram come from the east
and ride on the wings of darkness
their sperm burns all women
their venom poison all water
their swords annihilate all life
Summoning the Master of the Universe
Master of all stars and every stone
the might in every witch's kiss
Holy Procreation,The Sabbath
Cherry Witch dances
Cherry Witch laughs
Cherry Witch kisses
Cherry Witch adores
For Glory of every being sacrificed for Him
Heresy on the weak human faiths
Waiting for the Child
Fire that burn our bodies
Is our will and erotic festasy
Fire that burns our souls
In our destiny and only love
Riding on the Streams of Hell
Connected here and now
For this and another worlds
Devoted to the cause of hatred
Riding on the Streams of Hell
Riding on the Streams of Hell
Derated the Mortal Ways
Experience the Morbid Visions
Oppose the usurpers
stone faces of ungods
archaic hierarchy
older human bastard lies in ambush
in shade of monster old-toad
cities carved in the rock
monument of the ancient ones
those who were before
in harmony of cosmos and magic
twelve archaic faces
effect of corrosion and touch of the unknown and
this what is real has no meaning
