Nielson Laat Je Gaan Lyrics
Storm voorbij
Jij zit tegenover mij
De echo van de razernij klinkt nog even door
Wie waren wij, vraag je aan mij, dat is wat je vraagt aan mij
We staan op krakend ijs, maar we zakker er niet door
[chorus]
Als er liefde is komt het altijd goed, hoe dan ook
Laat je gaan ook als het me pijn kan doen
Hier is er de ruimte voor, we kunnen het wel aan
Hoe mooi is dat, zelfs wanner het lelijk wordt, geven we ons zelf niet op
En vechten we ons later tot elkaar
Pijn gedaan, geen water bij de wijn gedaan, nu moeten we blijven staan
En is het aan de tijd om ons te helen
Want we weten want we weten
[chorus]
Als er liefde is komt het altijd goed, hoe dan ook
Laat je gaan ook als het me pijn kan doen
Hier is er de ruimte voor, we kunnen het wel aan
Hoe mooi is dat, zelfs wanner het lelijk wordt, geven we ons zelf niet op
En vechten we ons later tot elkaar
Herinner mij als ik vergeet dat liefde bruggen bouwen is
Herinner mij als ik vergeet
Ik herinner jou als jij niet meer weet dat liefde bruggen bouwen is
Ik herinner jou als jij vergeet
En laat je gaan ook als het me pijn kan doen hier is er de ruimte voor

Nathan Sykes Over And Over Again Lyrics
Nathan Sykes Over And Over Again Lyrics
[Nathan]
From the way you smile
To the way you look
You capture me
Unlike no other
From the first hello
Yeah, that's all it took
And certainly
We had each other
And I won't leave you
Always be true
One plus one, two for life
Over and over again
So, don't ever think I need more
I've got the one to live for
No one else will do, and
I'm telling you
Just put your heart in my hands
Promise it won't get broken
We'll never forget this moment
It will stay brand new
'Cause I'll love you
Over and over again
Over and over again
From the heat of night
To the break of day
I'll keep you safe
And hold you forever.
And the sparks will fly
They will never fade
'Cause every day gets better and better
And I won't leave you
Always be true
One plus one, two for life
Over and over again
So, don't ever think I need more
I've got the one to live for
No one else will do
I'm telling you
Just put your heart in my hands
I promise it won't get broken
We'll never forget this moment
It will stay brand new
'Cause I'll love you
Over and over again
Over and over again
Girl when I'm with you
I lose track of time
When I'm without you
You're stuck on my mind
I'll be all you need
Until the day that I die
I'll love you
Over and over again.
So, don't ever think I need more
I've got the one to live for
No one else will do,
I'm telling you
Just put your heart in my hands
I promise it won't get broken
We'll never forget this moment
It will stay brand new
'Cause I'll love you
Over and over again
Over and over again
Over and over again

NATHANIEL RATELIFF LYRICS
album: "Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats" (2015)
I Need Never Get Old
(with The Night Sweats)
Can we be there
Oh just think of the time
Thought of love so strange
Said you never knew
While I try my best
To cover our eyes
It's a common way to blame and hide the truth
I know that some will say
It matters but little babe
Ah but come on and mean it to me
I need it so bad
I needed to try
Needed to fall
I needed your love I'm burning away
I need never get old
Taking our time
Ah just standing in the rain
Meaning what you said
Ah and mean it to me
All of these lies
Oh and never again
Come on and say it now say it's a game
I know that some will say
It matters but little babe
Ah but come on and mean it to me
I need it so bad
Ah mean it to me
I need it so bad
I needed to try
Needed to fall
I needed your love I'm burning away
I need never get old
I said I needed to try
Needed to fall
I needed your love I'm burning away
I need never get old
I said I needed to try
Needed to fall now baby
I needed your love I'm burning away
I need never get old
I need never get old
I need never get old
I need never get old
I need never get old
******************************************************
Howling At Nothing
(with The Night Sweats)
Some are waving it around
Someone carried me home
One was never noticed sleeping on the floor
But I know we were there
Some were playing around
Some were dipping so low
It never seemed to matter as the night slipped away
Cause there was soul in the air
We were howling at the moon
We were shaking our hips
Danced until we flat out falling into bed
But I won’t let you go
So let me in or let me down
Let me lay here so slow
Baby just keep holding got to move our feet
Cause you know it ain’t end
Step it in or step it out
Cut it all in and run
Kept on 'til it mattered baby I don’t even see
But I know we were there
We were howling at the moon
We were shaking our hips
Danced until we flat out falling into bed
But I won’t let you go
We were howling at the moon
We were shaking our hips
Danced until we flat out falling into bed
And I won’t let you go
Danced until we flat out falling into bed
Said I won’t let you go
******************************************************
Trying So Hard Not To Know
(with The Night Sweats)
You keep changing your mind for so many reasons
From what I can tell
You just might as well
Lay down and choke on your own
I can't give you enough to just keep believing
This shit don't run well
It's burned out as hell
And it's trying so hard not to know
You're filling it up just to turn out on empty
God damn I know just how it feels
I'm gonna tear out all that's inside me
Look away from here
Cause nobody cares
And they're trying so hard not to know
You take all of you want haven't found any answers
Look down and stare and I run around and yell
That it might not rain any more
You never stand up long enough to pull it together
Well who gives a damn and very few can
When they're trying so hard not to know
******************************************************
I've Been Failing
(with The Night Sweats)
Well I needed you and not just someone
I’ve been so long failing you dear
I said I’d care for all of this darling
Yet I buried all of it again
Ah yeah come on baby
Yeah it could be good
Honey
It’s just the two
Of us now
Now that all seems dark and light has gone away
I’ve been out there bending in the wind
Now I’m standing here to be beside you
And for all I know and all I care
I said don’t you weep and don’t you worry
Don’t you weep and don’t you worry
Don’t you weep and don’t you worry
Don’t you weep and don’t you worry
Don’t you weep and don’t you worry
Don’t you weep and don’t you worry
Don’t you weep and don’t you worry
I’ve been failing you
I’ve been failing you
I’ve been failing you
I’ve been failing you
But I can’t stop trying
But I can’t stop trying
But I can’t stop trying
Oh I can’t stop trying
Oh I can’t stop trying
Oh I can’t stop trying
Oh I can’t stop trying
Oh I can’t stop trying
Oh I can’t stop trying
Oh but I can’t stop trying
Oh I can’t stop trying
******************************************************
S.O.B.
(with The Night Sweats)
I'm gonna need someone to help me
I'm gonna need somebody's hand
I'm gonna need someone to hold me down
I'm gonna need someone to care
I'm gonna writhe and shake my body
I'll start pulling out my hair
I'm going to cover myself with the ashes of you
And nobody's gonna give a damn
Son of a bitch, give me a drink
One more night escaping me
Son of a bitch
If I can't get clean I'm gonna drink my life away
Now for seventeen years I've been throwing them back
Seventeen more will bury me
Can somebody please just tie me down
Or somebody give me a goddamn drink
Son of a bitch, give me a drink
One more night
This can't be me
Son of a bitch
If I can't get clean I'm gonna drink my life away
Hey, Yeah now
My heart was breaking, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me
My heart was breaking, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me
My heart was breaking, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me
My heart was aching, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me
Son of a bitch, give me a drink
One more night
This can't be me
Son of a bitch
If I can't get clean I'm gonna drink my life away
Son of a bitch, give me a drink
One more night
This can't be me
Son of a bitch
If I can't get clean I'm gonna drink my life away
Yeah ah
******************************************************
Wasting Time
(with The Night Sweats)
Think of all the time time time
You get to know it
Think about the world I found spinning awry
Remember all the clothes I wore to hide it from you
You said let’s take the long walk home tonight
Think of all the falling down and the hiding under
Think of all the time time time time time
Think of all the hours I spent in constant reflection
Well it gets you down but it don’t make it right
I made it my personal intervention
What a waste of time time time time time
I got a feeling I, I can’t get over
Maybe all we had has always been right
Think of all the love you gain when you send it over
Think of all the wool I’ve spun to be here tonight
Think of all the time time time time time
Think of all the time time time time time
Think of all the time time time time time
Think of all the time time time time time
Think of all the time time time time time
******************************************************

I'd Be Waiting
(with The Night Sweats)
If I go home oh with a howlin’ bend
If you ever get lonely if you never did
I count the hours you come round again
I’m just saying hmm hmm baby
I’d be waiting ah baby
I’d be waiting ah baby just to dance with you
If all this seems like I carry my head so low
If I don’t sing I’d be waiting on call from home
My moan and wait can’t carry this on and on
I’d be standing in the corner
I’d be waiting just to hold ya
I’d be
Waiting pretty baby just to dance with you
Somehow they’re gone
Somehow they’re playing
I’m tired and worn
But I’m still standing
I’m just saying hmm hmm baby
I’d be waiting ah baby
I’d be waiting ah baby just to dance with you
I’m just saying hmm hmm baby
I’d be waiting ah baby
I’d be waiting ah baby
I’d be waiting ah baby just to dance with you
******************************************************
Mellow Out
(with The Night Sweats)
Someone came in rushing dragging feet and nails and I could pretend
Wanting more of nothing feel it wearing on me
Just keep it hid
Mellow out and find a better way you’re feeling it shut down
Take it easy baby maybe find some time to just calm down
Keep on telling me
Laid a scarring on me I was thinking maybe I got it in
I could hand it to you it doesn’t matter if you’re not in the biz
Way to pressure till it’s looking like it finally broke down
Let’s bury it together and maybe find some time to just sit down
Keep on telling me
Mellow out and find a better way you’re feeling it shut down
Take it easy baby maybe find some time to just calm down
Keep on telling me

Wasting Time
(with The Night Sweats)
Think of all the time time time
You get to know it
Think about the world I found spinning awry
Remember all the clothes I wore to hide it from you
You said let’s take the long walk home tonight
Think of all the falling down and the hiding under
Think of all the time time time time time
Think of all the hours I spent in constant reflection
Well it gets you down but it don’t make it right
I made it my personal intervention
What a waste of time time time time time
I got a feeling I, I can’t get over
Maybe all we had has always been right
Think of all the love you gain when you send it over
Think of all the wool I’ve spun to be here tonight
Think of all the time time time time time
Think of all the time time time time time
Think of all the time time time time time
Think of all the time time time time time
Think of all the time time time time time

Mellow Out
(with The Night Sweats)
Someone came in rushing dragging feet and nails and I could pretend
Wanting more of nothing feel it wearing on me
Just keep it hid
Mellow out and find a better way you’re feeling it shut down
Take it easy baby maybe find some time to just calm down
Keep on telling me
Laid a scarring on me I was thinking maybe I got it in
I could hand it to you it doesn’t matter if you’re not in the biz
Way to pressure till it’s looking like it finally broke down
Let’s bury it together and maybe find some time to just sit down
Keep on telling me
Mellow out and find a better way you’re feeling it shut down
Take it easy baby maybe find some time to just calm down
Keep on telling me

NICHOLE NORDEMAN LYRICS
EP: "The Unmaking" (2015)
The Unmaking
This is where the walls gave way
This is demolition day
All the debris and all this dust
What is left of what once was
Sorting through what goes and what should stay
Every stone I laid for you
As if you had asked me to
Monument to holy things
Empty talk and circling
Isn't that what we're supposed to do?
What happens now?
When all I've made is torn down
What happens next?
When all of you is all that's left
This is the unmaking
Beauty and the breaking
Had to lose myself to find out who you are
Before each beginning
There must be an ending
Sitting in the rubble
I can see the stars
This is the unmaking
This is the unmaking
The longer and the tighter that we move
Only makes it harder to let go
Love will not stay locked inside
A steeple or a tower high
Only when we're broken are we whole
What happens now?
When all I've made is torn down
What happens next?
When all of you is all that's left
This is the unmaking
Beauty and the breaking
Had to lose myself to find out who you are
Before each beginning
There must be an ending
Sitting in the rubble
I can see the stars
This is the unmaking
This is the unmaking
I'll gather the same stones where
Everything came crashing down
I'll build you an altar there
On the same ground
Because what stood before
Was never yours
This is the unmaking
Beauty and the breaking
Had to lose myself to find out who you are
Before each beginning
There must be an ending
Sitting in the rubble
I can see the stars
This is the unmaking
This is the unmaking
Oh this is the unmaking
Had to lose myself
To find out who you are
**********************
Not To Us
(feat. Plumb)
All the toil
All in vain
Every image of ourselves that we create
Every dream
Built on sand
Every castle slips away when tides come in
Let us not imagine
That we might have a hand in where the wind blows
Where grace goes
Let not any passion be for kingdoms we have fashioned in our own name
For our own fame
Not to us
Not to us
But to Your name be glory
To Your name be glory
Not to us
Not to us
But to Your name be glory
To Your name
Every beat
Every breath
Every broken road and every ordered step
Every loss
Every gain
Every spotlight
Every shadow
Yours the same
So let us not be fooled
And let us not be disillusioned
Let our eyes see You clearly
Not to us
Not to us
But to Your name be glory
To Your name be glory
Not to us
Not to us
But to Your name be glory
To Your name
Anything that’s good
Anything that’s true
Let it point to You
Let it point to You
Not to us
Not to us
But to Your name be glory
To Your name
No walls
No greed
No color
No creed
No right
No left
All You
No less
Not to us
Not to us
But to Your name be glory
To Your name be glory
Not to us
Not to us
But to Your name be glory
To Your name
Anything that’s good
Anything that’s true
Let it point to You
Let it point to You
Not to us

But to Your name be glory

Name
You woke up one day in a bad way,
With a dark heart in a small cave,
And decided to hide
For the long bitter night.
But one day someone loved you,
Let the light in, made the old new,
From the water and mud wrote you new name in love,
Now something about it just doesn't seem real,
Sometimes that's just how it feels.
You are still a promise,
Heartbeat of god,
You may have for gotten,
But he has not,
You are not your ashes
You are a flame,
Do not ask the shadows
The light of the world knows,
Knows your name.
There was one day, you were certain
That he called you, cause you heard him,
And the crowed disappeared,
Everything crystal clear.
But then one day it was not so,
Other voices you didn't know
From the frey and the fringe they were all weighing in.
Now you can't remember who has your heart.
Well here's a start.
You are still a promise, heartbeat of god,
You may have for gotten but he has not,
You are not your ashes, you are a flame,
Do not ask the shadows the light of the world knows
Your a friend of god, god the son,
Blameless and forgiven one,
The slave no more, finally free,
Chains are there now redeemed,
Oh beautiful and broken heart,
Is safe and sound in his arms,
You were chosen you were his,
So remember this
You are still a promise,
You may have forgotten.
You are not your ashes, you are a flame,
Do not ask shadows the light of the world knows,
Knows your name
He knows your name
You are not your ashes, you are a flame,
Your not after shadows the light of the world knows,
Knows your name
**********************
Love You More
You said, “go and sin no more …”
Though my eyes could not meet Yours
I started running the third time the rooster crowed
You threw a party just for me
Though I squandered everything
I was blinded in the middle of the road
Climbed up in a tree to see You
Swallowed by the sea to flee You
Sold You for a little silver and a kiss
Killed a man to love his woman
Burned a bridge back to Your garden
Hung beside You while you took Your final breath
You’ve been loving me since time began
You’re behind my every second chance
I love You
I’m trying to
Love You more
I’m ready
Please help me
Love You more
I keep thinking there’s a limit
Sure I must be getting near it
When I’ve used up every pardon and regret
But You promise there is freedom
Gathered up the broken pieces
Scattered them as far as East is from the West
You’ve been loving me since time began
You’re behind my every second chance
I love You
I’m trying to
Love You more
I’m ready
Please help me
Love You more
With all the sand that fills the hourglass
With every breath between my first and last
I love You
I’m trying to
Love You more
I’m ready
Please help me
Love You more
**********************
Something Out Of Me
Just You and me on a hillside
And 4,999
If You could see on the inside
What I brought, what I need, how I’m caught in between
You lifted bread to the blue sky
They said they watched it just multiply
But in the back of a long line
Oh, I want to believe there’s enough left for me
Cause by now it really shoulda been long gone
And somehow it keeps going on and on
On and on an on ‘cause
You take all kinds of nothing
Turn it right in to something
I see impossible, but You see a basket full of
A little bit of this sounds crazy
A little bit of just maybe
You take every doubt and
You make something out of me
It’s not the story that moves me
It’s not that I don’t believe You could
It’s just my heart is so hungry
Is there enough to fill me up
Or will You run out of love
You take all kinds of nothing
Turn it right in to something
I see impossible, but You see a basket full of
A little bit of this sounds crazy
A little bit of just maybe
You take every doubt and
You make something out of me
Something out of me
By now Your love could have been long gone
But somehow it keeps going on and on
And...
You take all kinds of nothing
Turn it right in to something
I see impossible, but You see a basket full of
A little bit of this sounds crazy
A little bit of just maybe
You take every doubt and
You make something out of me
Something out of me
**********************
Slow Down
Here’s to you
You were pink or blue
And everything I wanted
Here’s to you
Never sleeping through
From midnight till the morning
Had to crawl before you walked
Before you ran
Before I knew it
You were trying to free your fingers from my hand
‘Cause you could it on your own now somehow
Slow down
Won’t you stay here a minute more
I know you want to walk through the door
But it’s all too fast
Let’s make it last a little while
I pointed to the sky and now you wanna fly
I am your biggest fan
I hope you know I am
But do you think you can somehow
Slow down
Here’s to you
Every missing tooth
Every bedtime story
Here’s to Barbie cars, light saber wars
Sleeping in on Sunday
Had to crawl
Before you walked
Before you ran
Before I knew it
You were teaching me
The only thing love can
Hold hands through it
When it’s scary, you’ve got me
Slow down
Won’t you stay here a minute more
I know you want to walk through the door
But it’s all too fast
Let’s make it last a little while
I pointed to the sky and now you wanna fly
I am your biggest fan
I hope you know I am
But do you think you can somehow
Slow down
Please don’t roll your eyes at me
I know I’m embarrassing
But someday you’ll understand
You’ll hold a little hand
Ask them if they can
I am your biggest fan
I hope you know I am
But do you think you can
Somehow
Slow down
Slow down

NECROWRETCH LYRICS
album: "With Serpents Scourge" (2015)
1. Black Death Communion
2. Feast Off Their Doom
3. With Serpents Scourge
4. By Evil And Beyond
5. The Bells Of Evil Schism
6. He Thrones On Thy Sins
7. Even Death May Die
8. Infernal Imprecation
9. Mortem Ritu
1. Black Death Communion
As a filthy plague his will has spread
Infecting yourself until skin turns dead
Your rancid body cracks and reeks
Yet your funerals are just the beginning
Venomous psalms infest thy skull
Insidious chants break thy soul
Impious blessing you just deserve
Forever bound with who dwells in Hell
Black Death Communion - Possessed by the power of Satan
Far away from your mortal life
Face that beyond there’s only dark
Let the devil’s spell embrace
And seal your fate into the flames of Hell
Draw the circle
Summon the Lord of Hell
Black Death Communion - Possessed by the power of Satan
Satan
2. Feast Off Their Doom
Riding Death - The arrival
We came from Hell - With Serpents Scourge
The sky is filled with fire and smoke
A shade summoned by sorcery
We seek, we kill, we feast, we breed
They can’t escape the devil’s league
We feast off their doom
Unholy - irresistible
Nightmarish – we are discord
My creatures were all spawned in sin
Now they feast off human breed
If your god is so almighty
Where is he in the hour of need?
We feast off their doom
The sky is filled with fire and smoke
A shade summoned by sorcery
We seek, we kill, we feast, we breed
We came from Hell to feast off their doom
3. With Serpents Scourge
I appear as a sulphur mist, spawned by the bowels of death
I embrace the abject sinner, my dark shape is nameless sorcery
Bow down to the superior forces of evil
Sanctify my name and desecrate human kind
Raise the altar, seal your fate, into blasphemy
Black as night and grim as death
Unholy cult, servant of darkness, possessed by satanic curse
Slaughtered brains, charred flesh, your rotten soul is bound to me
Chase the holy, crucify them, and let the fire consume their guts
As they cease to exist, their agony is feeding me
On the cross, throne the scraps
The fallen cult, of Jesus Christ
Now bow to me, embrace the beast
With Serpents Scourge I rise to thee
When the time of god ends into oblivion
Where the chains of faith are riven by hell
The sanctity is soiled by the devil’s plague
Black as night and grim as death
On the cross, thrones the scraps
The fallen cult, of Jesus Christ
Now bow to me, embrace the beast
With Serpents scourge I rise to thee
With Serpents Scourge
4. By Evil And Beyond
Feel the holy grace of god
Before your journey into the dark
The screams of despair tormenting you
The call of death growing inside
Time has come to rejoin your lord
So tear your flesh with the knife
The blood flows outside of you
His delight comes when you die
Decades of putrid rotten flesh
Centuries to live in death
Fooled by the seven Lords of Hell
Your twisted soul is bound to them
Heaven that you’ve claimed to reach
Never lived but in your mind
Now you’re doomed to crawl this earth
And you’ll never find peace
Ancient Chaos has spawned the creature
Cursed by Evil and beyond
“Thou torments me - Lord of the night
Thou possess me - into the dead”
Ancient Chaos has spawned the creature
Cursed by evil and beyond
5. The Bells Of Evil Schism
Can’t you hear the infernal bells?
With scorn they drag your soul to hell
Succumb to the evil beast
To Hell you’re sworn, to death you’ll kneel
An orb of black fire in your eyes
Reborn as servant of the night
Slave of Satan’s command, His will speaks by
The bells of evil schism
Ritual of necromancy, Pentagram of Sorcery
Sacrifice by crucifixion, Spread the plague of desecration
Slaughtering the men of Christ, watch the life fade in their eyes
Slave of Satan’s command, His will speaks by
The bells of evil schism
Prophet of the black flame
Through hate and death you spread his name
Unholy you’ve become
The evil reverend
Ritual of Necromancy, Pentagram of sorcery
Slave of Satan’s command, His will speaks by
The bells of evil schism
6. He Thrones On Thy Sins
The shade of death has overshadowed the sun
That I’ll never see again
My eyes are cold as this tombstone
Where my fate has carried me
Evil One
Takes control
Total death
Beyond all
Call of the beast from beneath the ground
I can hear the chime of insanity
Digging to unleash the horror in clay
That strange idol who calls my name
“Awake me mortal
Son of the earth
Let me free
Beyond all”
“As mankind falls, the beast awakes
His servants chant to bind their fates
A storm of darkness embraces the earth
Thy sins enthroned the Lord of Hell”
Lord of death I summon thee
Come to me, spread the winds of hell
7. Even Death May Die
Beyond I - your temple of evil
Remnants of past horror - tattered priest maniples
Sentenced to holy death - Thou shall rise before I
For with strange aeons - even death may die
Devourer of sanity - corrupter of flesh
Master of the temple - beast of the black space
Harbinger of Doom - resurrect among us
Fall upon our world - bring it whole to dust
I summon Thee, Lord of Hell!
Satanas, Infernal beast of the black space
Satanas, Ravenous corrupter of the flesh
Monarch of all evil - living flame of hell
Feaster of darkness - ripper of the veil
Shatter the holyness - resurrect among us
Fall upon our world - bring it whole to dust
"That is not dead which can eternal lie
And with strange aeons, even Death may die"
8. Infernal Imprecation
[Instrumental]
9. Mortem Ritu
It’s the fall of Christian empire
A downfall in darkness, tear of mankind
The sinners turned into deadly preachers
And the putrid winds of death possess their souls
The Devil’s night embraces the earth
While the sky is torn by a red shade of death
Christians’ legacy falls into obscurity
And death’s supreme force feeds on their screams
At the gates of Hell the pact is sealed
One thousand deaths they will receive
Their poisoned faith, their souls defiled
And forever doomed into an endless night

1. Black Death Communion
As a filthy plague his will has spread
Infecting yourself until skin turns dead
Your rancid body cracks and reeks
Yet your funerals are just the beginning
Venomous psalms infest thy skull
Insidious chants break thy soul
Impious blessing you just deserve
Forever bound with who dwells in Hell
Black Death Communion - Possessed by the power of Satan
Far away from your mortal life
Face that beyond there’s only dark
Let the devil’s spell embrace
And seal your fate into the flames of Hell
Draw the circle
Summon the Lord of Hell
Black Death Communion - Possessed by the power of Satan
Satan
2. Feast Off Their Doom
Riding Death - The arrival
We came from Hell - With Serpents Scourge
The sky is filled with fire and smoke
A shade summoned by sorcery
We seek, we kill, we feast, we breed
They can’t escape the devil’s league
We feast off their doom
Unholy - irresistible
Nightmarish – we are discord
My creatures were all spawned in sin
Now they feast off human breed
If your god is so almighty
Where is he in the hour of need?
We feast off their doom
The sky is filled with fire and smoke
A shade summoned by sorcery
We seek, we kill, we feast, we breed
We came from Hell to feast off their doom
3. With Serpents Scourge
I appear as a sulphur mist, spawned by the bowels of death
I embrace the abject sinner, my dark shape is nameless sorcery
Bow down to the superior forces of evil
Sanctify my name and desecrate human kind
Raise the altar, seal your fate, into blasphemy
Black as night and grim as death
Unholy cult, servant of darkness, possessed by satanic curse
Slaughtered brains, charred flesh, your rotten soul is bound to me
Chase the holy, crucify them, and let the fire consume their guts
As they cease to exist, their agony is feeding me
On the cross, throne the scraps
The fallen cult, of Jesus Christ
Now bow to me, embrace the beast
With Serpents Scourge I rise to thee
When the time of god ends into oblivion
Where the chains of faith are riven by hell
The sanctity is soiled by the devil’s plague
Black as night and grim as death
On the cross, thrones the scraps
The fallen cult, of Jesus Christ
Now bow to me, embrace the beast
With Serpents scourge I rise to thee
With Serpents Scourge
4. By Evil And Beyond
Feel the holy grace of god
Before your journey into the dark
The screams of despair tormenting you
The call of death growing inside
Time has come to rejoin your lord
So tear your flesh with the knife
The blood flows outside of you
His delight comes when you die
Decades of putrid rotten flesh
Centuries to live in death
Fooled by the seven Lords of Hell
Your twisted soul is bound to them
Heaven that you’ve claimed to reach
Never lived but in your mind
Now you’re doomed to crawl this earth
And you’ll never find peace
Ancient Chaos has spawned the creature
Cursed by Evil and beyond
“Thou torments me - Lord of the night
Thou possess me - into the dead”
Ancient Chaos has spawned the creature
Cursed by evil and beyond
5. The Bells Of Evil Schism
Can’t you hear the infernal bells?
With scorn they drag your soul to hell
Succumb to the evil beast
To Hell you’re sworn, to death you’ll kneel
An orb of black fire in your eyes
Reborn as servant of the night
Slave of Satan’s command, His will speaks by
The bells of evil schism
Ritual of necromancy, Pentagram of Sorcery
Sacrifice by crucifixion, Spread the plague of desecration
Slaughtering the men of Christ, watch the life fade in their eyes
Slave of Satan’s command, His will speaks by
The bells of evil schism
Prophet of the black flame
Through hate and death you spread his name
Unholy you’ve become
The evil reverend
Ritual of Necromancy, Pentagram of sorcery
Slave of Satan’s command, His will speaks by
The bells of evil schism
6. He Thrones On Thy Sins
The shade of death has overshadowed the sun
That I’ll never see again
My eyes are cold as this tombstone
Where my fate has carried me
Evil One
Takes control
Total death
Beyond all
Call of the beast from beneath the ground
I can hear the chime of insanity
Digging to unleash the horror in clay
That strange idol who calls my name
“Awake me mortal
Son of the earth
Let me free
Beyond all”
“As mankind falls, the beast awakes
His servants chant to bind their fates
A storm of darkness embraces the earth
Thy sins enthroned the Lord of Hell”
Lord of death I summon thee
Come to me, spread the winds of hell
7. Even Death May Die
Beyond I - your temple of evil
Remnants of past horror - tattered priest maniples
Sentenced to holy death - Thou shall rise before I
For with strange aeons - even death may die
Devourer of sanity - corrupter of flesh
Master of the temple - beast of the black space
Harbinger of Doom - resurrect among us
Fall upon our world - bring it whole to dust
I summon Thee, Lord of Hell!
Satanas, Infernal beast of the black space
Satanas, Ravenous corrupter of the flesh
Monarch of all evil - living flame of hell
Feaster of darkness - ripper of the veil
Shatter the holyness - resurrect among us
Fall upon our world - bring it whole to dust
"That is not dead which can eternal lie
And with strange aeons, even Death may die"

1. Screams In The Night
All alone as the night takes the day
Two young lovers park to get away
That noise you heard?
Oh, it's just in your head
Little do you know...
You're gonna wind up dead
Look behind you
He's corning to get you
With his axe in his hands
Screams in the night
The beast is charged and he's ready to go
Swings his axe with one fatal blow
You look in horror
And you start to pray
Nothing left to do
But just try to get away
Look behind you
He's coming to get you
With his axe in his hands
Screams in the night
2. Curse Of The Damned
Many years ago when darkness ruled the throne
The second son of a king was out on his own
Took his anger and he turned it into hate
'Til the devil's reaper handed him his fate
He gave him the curse of the damned
Curse of the damned
You cannot erase the sins of this man
Curse of the damned
Seeking sanctuary in the holy lands
There was no escaping the bloodshed by his hands
He looked to the heavens, said to the lord
Is this what you've planned for me?!
If I must kill...
It's a price I'm willing to pay
I am the curse of the damned!
Curse of the damned
You cannot erase the sins of this man
Curse of the damned
3. Satan
Lost in the dark
Between Heaven and Hell
Inverted crosses on the walls
A fallen angel comes up to you
Says follow me your master calls
His name is...
SATAN
He rules the underworld
SATAN
He's coming for your soul
There's no turning back at the seventh gate
Drink from the chalice like before

How many times do we have to ask?!
For some mercy on us all
C'mon now
SATAN
He rules the underworld
SATAN
He's coming for your soul

Just bow down to him
His name is Satan

Feel the chill down cry spine
Thy ship approaches the land
Load my gun
Time for some fun
The mission is clear
It's time to win this war
Full speed ahead
Fight to the death
Full speed ahead
Take our last breath
Fight to the death
Overboard
We swim for the shore
Machine gun fire everywhere
Picking us off one by one
10,000 bodies piled on the beach
As I look...
I look to the sky
See the body parts raining down
We're gonna die if we choose not to fight
Not giving up
Only one way to go
Full speed ahead
Fight to the death
Full speed ahead
Take our last breath
Fight to the death
5. The Howling Man
Holy rollers with your staff of truth
Mind controllers defending God with no proof
But you must believe them
You do not know what you speak of
The howling man is no man at all
Do not open up the door
Evil will trick you
I won't let you take this world to hell
Prince of darkness taking the form of man
Manipulating, doing all that he can
But don't believe him
You do not know what you speak of
The howling man is no man at all
Do not open up the door
Evil will trick you
I won't let you take this world to hell
Through history, he's just a face in the crowd
Where there was sin, corruption, and war
He was always there
Now that he's trapped, I'm not letting go
Please, oh please
Don't open the door!
No!
Don't open the door
No!
Don't open the door
No!
Not again!
No!
No!
You do not know what you speak of
The howling man is no man at all
Do not open up the door
Evil will trick you
I won't let you take this world to hell

Friday night

You can feel the heavy metal heat
7. Livin' Dangerous
Pleased to meet you
How do you do
See I'm a man with much to prove
I listen to no one
Do what I choose
There's no way that I can lose
So lock me up and throw away the key
There's no one to fear but me
Livin' dangerous tonight
I just can't seem to get it right
Livin' dangerous
Every day and night
There's no easy way to win this fight
No way out!
When you see me
Just walk away
I'll wipe that smile right off your face
'Cause I'm a crazy mutha
I got a heart made of steel
Gonna show you how I feel
So lock me up and throw away the key
There's no one to fear but me
Livin' dangerous tonight
I just can't seem to get it right
Livin' dangerous

No way out!
So now you know

It's better me than you
So turn around
Just turn and walk away
And go back from where you came
8. Mastermind
Walk down that road
And hold your head up high
But beware that evil awaits you
No matter how hard you try
Don't hide in the shadows
Just to avoid the light
For the devil he may take your life away
Here it comes down, crashing your walls
Then you will know your destiny calls
'Cause you're the mastermind
Don't waste your time
You're the mastermind
Open the doorway
And step into your mind
Keep on pushing forward
No matter what lurks behind
Take it or leave it
The choice is up to you
For the devil he will take your fife for sure
Here it comes down, crashing your walls
Then you will know your destiny calls
'Cause you're the mastermind
Can't see
Your eyes are burning
The truth filled with lies
Create your own reality
No compromise
Oh and here it comes
That feeling of woe
Tap into the universe
'Cause you're the master of control
Here it comes down, crashing your walls
Then you will know your destiny calls
'Cause you're the mastermind
Don't waste your time
You're the mastermind
You're the mastermind
Don't waste your time
You're the mastermind
9. Run For Your Life
They wait for the night to fall
Then come out and play
They're not human anymore
On a moody, mystic night
You know there's something strange
When they're gunning for the door
I hear a shot ring out
Then ricochet!
Bullets flying by my head
The sirens start to roll
It's looking pretty grim
But the show must go on
Run!
Get away
You feel like you've been hit
No time to waste
Get away
Run for your life
(For your life)
Keep on runnin'
I can't give you safety anymore
Run for your life
(For your life)
For your life
Death is standing right at the front door
Run for your life!
10. Killer
Crawl into her window
She's fast asleep
Grab your hunting knife
It's time to take the leap
Tie her up
Gag her mouth
No need to hide your face
Everybody knows you're a...
KILLER!
Killing just for fun
KILLER!
Killing everyone
Now the job is done
Wipe off your blade
Stop and take a look
At the mess you've made
Wipe your face
Clean your boots
Look into the mirror
Recognize yourself as a...
KILLER!
Killing just for fun
KILLER!
Killing everyone
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Time is up
You're gonna fry
Time to die
Don't ask why
You know you're a...
KILLER!
Killing just for fun
KILLER!
Killing everyone
KILLER!
11. Save Me Now
I hear a voice screaming in the night
A desperate cry from the grave
Heavy breathing
Nothing is in sight
I try to make my escape
Madness takes over my mind
I'm going insane
In the dark corners you will find
The questions remain
Save me now 'cause I'm losing all control
Save me now death is knocking at my door
Save me now Lucifer has got a hold
My soul is gonna burn in flames
I see the masses burning down the woods
Only time I can borrow
Oh high priestess say those ancient words
"Rey oscura tome tu trono"
Stab that dagger through my heart
Then go to hell
I am the one who wears the mark
I know you can tell
Save me now 'cause I'm losing all control
Save me now death is knocking at my door
Save me now Lucifer has got a hold
My soul is gonna burn in flames

1. Shudder Before The Beautiful
The deepest solace lies in understanding
This ancient unseen stream
A shudder before the beautiful
[Professor Richard Dawkins]
Awake, oceanborn
Behold this force
Bring the outside in
Explode the self to epiphany
The very core of life
The soaring high of truth and light
The music of this awe
Deep silence between the notes
Deafens me with endless love
This vagrant island Earth
A pilgrim shining bright
We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful
We, the voyagers
Tales from the seas
Cathedral of green
The very core of life
Is soaring higher of truth and light
The music of this awe
Deep silence between the notes
Deafens me with endless love
This vagrant island Earth
A pilgrim shining bright
We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful
We, the voyagers
The unknown
The grand show
The choir of the stars
Interstellar
Theatre play
The nebulae curtain falls
Imagination
Evolution
A species from the vale
Walks in wonder
In search of
The source of the tale
The music of this awe
Deep silence between the notes
Deafens me with endless love
This vagrant island Earth
A pilgrim shining bright
We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful
We, the voyagers
2. Weak Fantasy
These stories given to us all
Are filled with sacrifice and robes of lust
Dissonant choirs and downcast eyes
Self-hood of a condescending ape
Behold the crown of a heavenly spy
Forged in blood of those who defy
Kiss the ring, praise and sing
He loves you dwelling in fear and sin
Fear is a choice you embrace
Your only truth
Tribal poetry
Witchcraft filling your void
Lust for fantasy
Male necrocracy
Every child worthy of a better tale
Pick your author from à la carte fantasy
Filled with suffering and slavery
You live only for the days to come
Shoveling trash of the upper caste
Smiling mouth in a rotting head
Sucking dry the teat of the scared
A storytelling breed we are
A starving crew with show-off toys
Fear is a choice you embrace
Your only truth
Tribal poetry
Witchcraft filling your void
Lust for fantasy
Male necrocracy
Every child worthy of a better tale
From words into war of the worlds
This one we forsake with scorn
From lies the strength of our love
Mother's milk laced with poison for this newborn
Wake up child, I have a story to tell
Once upon a time
Your only truth
Tribal poetry
Witchcraft filling your void
Lust for fantasy
Male necrocracy
Every child worthy of a better tale
3. Élan
Leave the sleep and let the springtime talk
In tongues from the time before man
Listen to a daffodil tell her tale
Let the guest in, walk out, be the first to greet the morn
The meadows of heaven await harvest
The cliffs unjumped, cold waters untouched
The elsewhere creatures yet unseen
Finally your number came up, free fall awaits the brave
Come
Taste the wine
Race the blind
They will guide you from the light
Writing noughts till the end of time
Come
Surf the clouds
Race the dark
It feeds from the runs undone
Meet me where the cliff greets the sea
The answer to the riddle before your eyes
Is in dead leaves and fleeting skies
Returning swans and sedulous mice
Writings on the garden's book
In the minute of a lover's look
Building a sandcastle close to the shore
A house of cards from a worn out deck
A home from the fellowship, poise and calm
Write a lyric for the song only you can understand
Riding hard every shooting star
Come to life, open mind, have a laugh at the orthodox
Come, drink deep let the dam of mind seep
Travel with great élan, dance a jig at the funeral
Come!
4. Yours Is An Empty Hope
Tear me to bits, enjoy the scene
Of screen name verbal vanity
Churning the words imbued in filth
Your tongue oily water under my bridge
You have the world, it's all for you
I wish you'd find the lost in you
Grateful for the pain, it proves we're alive
Can you feel it
I can't make you want the truth
It's up to you
Yours is an empty hope
Yours is an empty hope
Feed me to pigs in your fantasies
Your sea roars bitter elegies
Like narcissus who bribes the pool
A hollow voice ruin with a roof
Stop! Life is now, still all for you
Turn from the hate, turn from the smoke
I see the parchment of your soul
The notes, the song
Join your voice
I can let you have the world
It's all for you
Yours is an empty hope
Yours is an empty hope
5. Our Decades In The Sun
I climbed off your back
Not so long ago
To a blooming meadow
To a path you'd made for the lightest feet
Mother, I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you, the care, the love, the memories
We are the story of one
Father, I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you, the care, the love, the memories
You are forever in me
This verse we wrote on our road home
For you, all this for you
All this for you
Our walk has been sublime
A soaring ride and gentle leap
You have the heart of a true friend
One day we'll meet on that shore again
Mother, I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you, the care, the love, the memories
We are the story of one
Oh father, I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you, the care, the love, the memories
You are forever in me
6. My Walden
Sain y niwl,
Gwynt y goedwig fwsog,
Gwenith faen, ger y coed, a'r lleuad,
Un gwef adenydd i dapestri bywyd
light shines bright beyond all the cities of gold
On a road of bird song and chocolate shops
Of buskers, jugglers, innkeeper's welcoming call
The sound of mist, smell of moss-grown woods
Weaving my wings from many-colored yarns
Flying higher, higher, higher into the wild
Weaving my world into tapestry of life
Its fire, golden, in my Walden
I will taste the manna in every tree
Liquid honey and wine from the distant hills
An early morning green wood concerto
Greets my Walden with its eternal voice
Weaving my wings from many colored yarns
Flying higher, higher, higher into the wild
Weaving my world into a tapestry of life
It's fire, golden, in my Walden
Weaving my wings from many colored yarns
Flying higher, higher, higher into the wild
Weaving my world into a tapestry of life
It's fire, golden, in my Walden
Weaving my wings from many colored yarns
Flying higher, higher, higher, higher, higher, higher, higher, higher, higher, higher
I do not wish to evade the world
Yet I will forever build my own
Forever build my own
Forever my home
7. Endless Forms Most Beautiful
Come on; hop on; let's take a ride
Come and meet the travelers who came to town
They have a tale from the past to tell
From the great dark between the stars
We are a special speck of dust
A fleeting moment on an ark
A celebration, a rest haven of life
Lay on a field of green with mother Eve
With father pine reaching high
Look at yourself in the eyes of aye-aye
Unfolding rendezvous
Deep into the past
Follow the aeon path
Greet a blade of grass
Every endless form most beautiful
Alive, aware, in awe
Before the grandeur of it all
Our floating pale blue ark
Of endless forms most beautiful
Beyond aeons we take a ride
Welcoming the shrew that survived
To see the Tiktaalik
Take her first walk; witness the birth of flight
Deeper down in Panthalassa
A eukaryote finds her way
We return to the very first one
Greet the one we’ll soon become
Lay on a field of green with mother Eve
With father by reaching high
Look at yourself in the eyes of aye-aye
Unfolding rendezvous
Deep into the past
The lonely eon path
Greet a blade of grass
Every endless form most beautiful
A life of wearing on
Before the grandeur of it all
Our floating pale blue ark
Of endless forms most beautiful
Deep into the past
The lonely eon path
Greet a blade of grass
Every endless form most beautiful
A life of wearing on
Before the grandeur of it all
Our floating pale blue ark
Of endless forms most beautiful
8. Edema Ruh
One by one we light the candles of this show
One by one, enter the theatre of the primal birth
Silently watch the planetary curtain go down
Laugh and rejoice, as the powerful play greets you tonight
[Chorus:]
We are the Edema Ruh
We know the songs the sirens sang
See us dream every tale true
The verse we leave with you will take you home
[Verse 2]
We’ll give you a key to open all of the gates
We’ll show you a sea of starlight to drown all your cares
Mirrorhouses, the sweetest kisses and wines
A Debussy dialogue between wind and the roaring sea
[Chorus]
[Guitar solo]
[Bridge]
Dance to the whistle to the play to the story
To infinite encores
Laugh at the royalty with sad crowns
And repeat the chorus once more
[Chorus]
9. Alpenglow
Once upon a time a song was heard
Giving birth to a child of Earth and verse
Together we slay another fright
Every Jubjub bird, spooks of the past
Close your eyes and take a peek
The truth is easy to see
We were here, roaming on the endless prairie
Writing an endless story
Building a Walden of our own
We were here, grieving the saddened faces
Conquering the darkest places
Time to rest now, and to finish the show
And become the music, one with alpenglow
Hand in hand guiding me into light
You, the fairy tale guise in blue and white
Together we slay another fright
Every Jub-jub birds moves soft and fast
Close your eyes and take a peek
The truth is easy to see
We were here...
We were here, roaming on the endless prairie
Writing an endless story
Building a Walden of our own
We were here, grieving the saddened faces
Conquering the darkest places
Time to rest now, and to finish the show
And become the music, one with alpenglow
You are my path, my home, my star
A beautiful tale within the tale
And when the dust needs to move on
I will tuck us in on a bed of snow
Painting white, silencing the valley we built
Together we'll sleep, devoured by life
We were here, roaming the endless prairie
Writing an endless story
Building a Walden of our own
We were here, grieving the saddened faces
Conquering the darkest places
Time to rest now, and to finish the show
And become the music, one with alpenglow
We were here, roaming on the endless prairie
Writing an endless story
Building a Walden of our own
We were here, grieving the saddened faces
Conquering the darkest places
Time to rest now, and to finish the show
And become the music, one with alpenglow
10. The Eyes Of Sharbat Gula

11. The Greatest Show On Earth
[1. Four Point Six]
Archaean horizon
The first sunrise
On a pristine Gaea
Opus perfectum
Somewhere there
Us sleeping
"After sleeping through a hundred million centuries we have finally opened our eyes on a sumptuous planet, sparkling with color, bountiful with life. Within decades we must close our eyes again. Isn't it a noble, an enlightened way of spending our brief time in the sun, to work at understanding the universe and how we have come to wake up in it?"
[- Professor Richard Dawkins]
[2. Life]
The cosmic law of gravity
Pulled the newborns around a fire
A careless, cold infinity in every vast direction
Lonely farer in the Goldilocks zone
She has a tale to tell
From the stellar nursery into a carbon feast
Enter LUCA
The tapestry of chemistry
There is a writing in the garden
Leading us to the mother of all
We are one
We are a universe
Forbears of what will be
Scions of the Devonian sea
Aeons pass
writing the tale of us all
A day-to-day new opening
For the greatest show on Earth
Ion channels welcoming the outside world
to the stuff of stars
Bedding the tree of a biological holy
Enter life
The tapestry of chemistry
There is a writing in the garden
Leading us to the mother of all
We are one
We are a universe
Forbears of what will be
Scions of the Devonian sea
Aeons pass
Writing the tale of us all
A day-to-day new opening
For the greatest show on Earth
We are one
We are a universe
Forbears in what will be
Scions of the Devonian sea
Aeons pass
writing the tale of us all
A day-to-day new opening
For the greatest show on Earth
We are here to care for the garden
The wonder of birth
Of every form most beautiful
[3. The Toolmaker]
After a billion years
The show is still here
Not a single one of your fathers died young
The handy travelers
out of Africa
Little Lucy of the afar
Gave birth to fantasy
To idolatry
To self-destructive weaponry
Enter the god of gaps
Deep within the past
Atavistic dread of the hunter
Enter Ionia, the cradle of thought
The architecture of understanding
The human lust to feel so exceptional
To rule the Earth
Hunger for shiny rocks
For giant mushroom clouds
The will to do just as you'd be done by
Enter history, the grand finale
Enter Ratkind
[3x]
Man, he took his time in the sun
Had a dream to understand
A single grain of sand
He gave birth to poetry
But one day'll cease to be
Greet the last light of the library
We were here
We were here
We were here
We were here
[4. The Understanding]
[5. Sea-Worn Driftwood]
"We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Sahara. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively exceeds the set of actual people. In the teeth of those stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here. We privileged few, who won the lottery of birth against all odds, how dare we whine at our inevitable return to that prior state from which the vast majority have never stirred?"
[- Professor Richard Dawkins]
"There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved."

1. Shudder Before The Beautiful
The deepest solace lies in understanding
This ancient unseen stream
A shudder before the beautiful
[Professor Richard Dawkins]
Awake, oceanborn
Behold this force
Bring the outside in
Explode the self to epiphany
The very core of life
The soaring high of truth and light
The music of this awe
Deep silence between the notes
Deafens me with endless love
This vagrant island Earth
A pilgrim shining bright
We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful
We, the voyagers
Tales from the seas
Cathedral of green
The very core of life
Is soaring higher of truth and light
The music of this awe
Deep silence between the notes
Deafens me with endless love
This vagrant island Earth
A pilgrim shining bright
We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful
We, the voyagers
The unknown
The grand show
The choir of the stars
Interstellar
Theatre play
The nebulae curtain falls
Imagination
Evolution
A species from the vale
Walks in wonder
In search of
The source of the tale
The music of this awe
Deep silence between the notes
Deafens me with endless love
This vagrant island Earth
A pilgrim shining bright
We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful
We, the voyagers
2. Weak Fantasy
These stories given to us all
Are filled with sacrifice and robes of lust
Dissonant choirs and downcast eyes
Self-hood of a condescending ape
Behold the crown of a heavenly spy
Forged in blood of those who defy
Kiss the ring, praise and sing
He loves you dwelling in fear and sin
Fear is a choice you embrace
Your only truth
Tribal poetry
Witchcraft filling your void
Lust for fantasy
Male necrocracy
Every child worthy of a better tale
Pick your author from à la carte fantasy
Filled with suffering and slavery
You live only for the days to come
Shoveling trash of the upper caste
Smiling mouth in a rotting head
Sucking dry the teat of the scared
A storytelling breed we are
A starving crew with show-off toys
Fear is a choice you embrace
Your only truth
Tribal poetry
Witchcraft filling your void
Lust for fantasy
Male necrocracy
Every child worthy of a better tale
From words into war of the worlds
This one we forsake with scorn

Wake up child, I have a story to tell

NATALIE TAYLOR Wildfire LYRICS
EP: "Wildfire" (2015)
Control
Twisted you can't turn your mind off
Every thought is a lost cause
It pushes and pulls
Takes everything till your broken
How do we get through
How do we live like were supposed to
Til were gone
And do we find out
What life's about when we let go of control
Let go of control [x2]
Caught up in so many things
Taking the cure but feeling the pain
Holdin' it in
Losin' yourself
Stayin' alive but you're broken
How do we get through
How do we live like were supposed to
Til were gone
And do we find out
What life's about when we let go of control
Let go of control
Let go of control
When you're holding on to every thing in stone
You give up the chance to live out of control
And do we find out
What life's about when we let go of control
Let go of control
Let go of control
****************************************
No One Knows
My eyes are closed
My hands are tied
I'm in a trust fall from great heights
And I know that you'll catch me
I know that you get me
I never fell this safely
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you
Sometimes I don't
Even know myself
I fight with the one who longs for something else
But I know that you get me
You're looking out for me
I feel you around me
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you
I will hold on to you
And you'll hold on to me
Just like we do
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you

Wildfire
I've come so close to this
There's a feeling of such a heavy rush from it
And it whispers, calls out, holds on till I'm listening
There's a wildfire
Set to blaze
Undiscovered here to change
There's a wildfire
fire fire fire
Whispering
I can't stay far from it
So beautiful
Pulls you in til' you feel it
And it whispers, calls out, holds on til' I'm listening
There's a wildfire
Set to blaze
Undiscovered here to change
There's a wildfire
fire fire fire
Whispering
Even if even if even if it all burns out even if
Even if it all burns out
We're still alive [x2]
There's a wildfire
fire fire fire
Whispering
There's a wildfire

Control
Twisted you can't turn your mind off
Every thought is a lost cause
It pushes and pulls
Takes everything till your broken
How do we get through
How do we live like were supposed to
Til were gone
And do we find out
What life's about when we let go of control
Let go of control [x2]
Caught up in so many things
Taking the cure but feeling the pain
Holdin' it in
Losin' yourself
Stayin' alive but you're broken
How do we get through
How do we live like were supposed to
Til were gone
And do we find out
What life's about when we let go of control
Let go of control
Let go of control
When you're holding on to every thing in stone
You give up the chance to live out of control
And do we find out
What life's about when we let go of control
Let go of control
Let go of control
****************************************
No One Knows
My eyes are closed
My hands are tied
I'm in a trust fall from great heights
And I know that you'll catch me
I know that you get me
I never fell this safely
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you
Sometimes I don't
Even know myself
I fight with the one who longs for something else
But I know that you get me
You're looking out for me
I feel you around me
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you
I will hold on to you
And you'll hold on to me
Just like we do
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you
No one knows me like you do
No one knows me like you do
Like you

Wildfire
I've come so close to this
There's a feeling of such a heavy rush from it
And it whispers, calls out, holds on till I'm listening
There's a wildfire
Set to blaze
Undiscovered here to change
There's a wildfire
fire fire fire
Whispering
I can't stay far from it
So beautiful
Pulls you in til' you feel it

NATEWANTSTOBATTLE Mangled LYRICS
album: "Mangled" (2015)
Dawn Of The Third Day
Now will you take me along
When you fly away and play your song
Because 7 years is far too long
I know she knows she gives me everything
Gives me courage, give me wisdom, gives me strength
For her I only hope I'll do the same
Now I won't ever be the same
Ever since I learned this princess's name
Now it seems there's just no other way
I'll win her heart by the dawn of the third day
When I'm high and dry, she's my song of storms
When I'm cold at night, her Din's fire keeps me warm
I could feel her since the day that I was born
When I'm bloodied, battered, beaten from the longest fights
She hookshots straight to me heart and holds me tight
We'll stay up late and share our stories all night
Now I won't ever be the same
Ever since I learned this princess's name
Now it seems there's just no other way
I'll win her heart by the dawn of the third day
Now I won't ever be the same
Ever since I learned this princess's name
Now it seems there's just no other way
I'll win her heart by the dawn of the third day

Mangled
(a Five Nights at Freddy's 2 song)
We’re back
Revamped
The madness never ends
We’re not
Alone
This time we’ve brought some friends
No doors
No hope
But you keep coming back
But if this is what you want
Then you can be just like us
It’s what we’re made to do
You act like we’re to blame
Wear a mask to hide yourself
When really it makes us the same
A couple hours but it’s feelin' like days
Now you’re runnin' out of power
Leave you mangled and winding away
Step one
Check lights
And empty out the hall
Did you
Hear that?
There’s banging in the walls
Enjoy your
New job
Cause it might be your last
If you find it’s 6 AM
We’ll see you tomorrow
It’s what we’re made to do
You act like we’re to blame
Wear a mask to hide yourself
When really it makes us the same
A couple hours but it’s feelin' like days
Now you’re runnin' out of power
Leave you mangled
It’s what we’re made to do
You act like we’re to blame
Wear a mask to hide yourself
When really it makes us the same
A couple hours but it’s feelin' like days
Now you’re runnin' out of power
Leave you mangled and winding away

Monster Inside
Now I'm scared to even open my mouth
Because there's something deep inside of me
You don't know about
And I wish there was a way you could see
If I could show maybe I'd know
If I'm a man or a beast
Just take one look in my eyes
You'd see right through my disguise
She says that when I'm nearby
That she can feel my every move
When I fell apart
Yeah, something changed in my heart
As you can tell from these scars
I'm not the man that you knew before
I found something that makes me feel alive
Yet somehow dead inside
It makes me feel
It makes me numb at once
It makes no sense
Yet it still helps me see
So am I soon to be the monster that I despise?
She thinks she's mine
She must be out of her mind
I said "get back" but she wants more
And now her body's on the floor
I've got this thing in my heart
I have to hide
It's eating at me from the inside
Just take one look in my eyes
You'd see right through my disguise
She says that when I'm nearby
That she can feel my every move
When I fell apart
Yeah, something changed in my heart
As you can tell from these scars
I'm not the man that you knew before
I found something that makes me feel alive
Yet somehow dead inside
It makes me feel
It makes me numb at once
It makes no sense
Yet it still helps me see
So am I soon to be the monster that I despise?

Misty
I first saw you at Cerulean Gym
Just out a rocky tunnel
It was the way you'd laugh
And the way that you swim
I knew that you'd be trouble
We made such a big splash, big crash
You'll be my tidal wave
Breaks me down like an avalanche
Then we go dance in the rain
Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone
I'm gone forever
Don't tease me
My heart is freezing
Cause you whipped up
This icy weather
I'm talking in my sleep
This story won't star me
And you feel sheer cold to me
But Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover
Now I knew that my chances were slim
That much is plain to see
But I found you standing with him
And thought it should have been me
I had my chance and I blew it
My frozen heart saw right through it
I'm coming down like a crashing wake
Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone
I'm gone forever
Don't tease me
My heart is freezing
Cause you whipped up
This icy weather
I'm talking in my sleep
This story won't star me
And you feel sheer cold to me
But Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover
From the burn from when you scald my heart
Chewed me up fangs of ice and then you ripped me apart
Thunder wave I can't move I'm paralyzed around you
I got hax'd and confused from the start
Again, great
Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone
I'm gone forever
Don't tease me
My heart is freezing
Cause you whipped up
This icy weather
I'm talking in my sleep
This story won't star me
And you feel sheer cold to me
Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover
Gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover
Now I'm gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover
Gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover

Salvaged
(a Five Nights at Freddy's 3 song)
It's been years
Since I've seen a face around here
I was broken and alone
In that hell I called my home
You always choose to stay
Spend your nights keeping me away
You think you stand a chance to last
Against the ghosts of your past?
It's been years
Since I've seen a face around here
I was broken and alone
In that hell I called my home
Should have left me to decay
Finding me was your worst mistake
And I've found my new obsession
Now it's just you and me
You turn away
I'll be right beside you
You cut me off
But I'll always have another way to find you
My body's still mending
You're in for a sight
Another night but it doesn't get easy
Because you're stuck picking up all the pieces
That they salvaged
No matter what the ending
You won't last the night
I hear you breathing in your room
Now don't you panic
It'll all be over soon
And you can play your little games all day
You'll never be free
You block me out all you want
But I hear the sound
The echo of a "hello"
I'll come back around
No happy ending
Will ever find you
All of these ghosts are
From deep inside you
*******************************
Hold On To You
I've done my best to look inside
But I've found nothing - no shame, no pride
I need something to hang on to
I miss when you were here by my side
They dress you up to fit the part
Believe that you don't have the heart
Now I've grown so sick of running
To find I'm only at the start (I'm at the start)
They can call us heartless
Hollow vessels of what we used to be
Don't you forget about me
Now commit this to your memories
Say that we are nobodies
Only shadows were meant to fade
But I can't believe that it's true
You're a memory I can't lose
I'll hold on to you
Remember, please remeber
Remember who I used to be
Who am I, who am I
I can't find my way to reality
Oh
Got it memorized
And my heart's a battle field
And there's a war waging, a storm is raging on
But I won't forgive myself
If I fade away gone and forgotten
If you disappear then would you fear
That no one would miss you
Well you're wrong 'cause I'm not letting go
Of the days we shared
They can call us heartless
Hollow vessels of what we used to be
Don't you forget about me
Now commit this to your memories
Say that we are nobodies
Only shadows were meant to fade
But I can't believe that it's true
You're a memory I can't lose
I'll hold on to you
(Hold on to you)
(Hold on to you)
I'll hold on to you, yeah
Remember, remember
Please remember who I used to be
Who am I, who am I
I'm puppet in their game
Remember, remember
Please remember who I used to be
Who am I, who am I
I'm puppet in their game
They can call us heartless
Hollow vessels of what we used to be
Don't you forget about me
Now commit this to your memories
Say that we are nobodies
Only shadows were meant to fade
But I can't believe that it's true
You're a memory I can't lose
I'll hold on to you

No More
(a Five Nights at Freddy's song)
You can break down my lights and my doors
but I won't let you back in no more no more
I'm sick of getting stuck in the same routine again
5 nights it shouldn't seem so long
but it takes forever when you go all about it wrong
these halls are lines with blood I cant have on my hands
these walls they seem to call my name
but I refuse to be another puppet in your game
and your eyes are dead inside but tonight I leave alive
You can break down my lights and my doors
but I won't let you back in no more no more
I'm sick of getting stuck in the same routine again
Tie me up put me into a suit but I'll never ever be like you no
I know what happened here and you cant erase your past
Done what I can to try and hide
but even you can tell who I really am inside
and its not my job to watch you I'm leaving here tonight
but maybe one day you'll find humanity
until then don't you dare say that we are the same
You can break down my lights and my doors
but I won't let you back in no more no more
I'm sick of getting stuck in the same routine again
Tie me up put me into a suit but I'll never ever be like you no
I know what happened here and you cant erase your past
I crave the light of day
cause I've been keeping you away
it's driving me insane
it's driving me insane
You can break down my lights and my doors
but I won't let you back in no more no more
I'm sick of getting stuck in the same routine again
Tie me up put me into a suit but I'll never ever be like you no
I know what happened here and you cant erase your past
Maybe one day you'll find humanity

Nightmare
Just sleep
Just dream
Just sleep
Just dream
Just sleep
Just dream
In the back of my mind
I've been trying to chase a monster this whole time
But I couldn't see
The monster was me
And no one heard our cries
Now I've run out of tears
The time has come for me to disappear
Get me out of this mess
And away from this stress
Set me free so I can rest
We're only kids who lost our way
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep
Just dream
This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
We want to fly
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free
And soon we'll be set free
And I've been crying out for help
I know I bite but I mean well
Can you see my disguise
I'm different inside
Can you break this spell
And all the ghosts from before
They're knocking and they're breaking down your door
So please set us free
Now you have the key
Because I can't take the pain no more
No more
We're only kids who lost our way
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep
Just dream
This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
We want to fly
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free
We're only kids who lost our way
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep
Just dream
This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
We want to fly
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free

Dawn Of The Third Day
Now will you take me along
When you fly away and play your song
Because 7 years is far too long
I know she knows she gives me everything
Gives me courage, give me wisdom, gives me strength
For her I only hope I'll do the same
Now I won't ever be the same
Ever since I learned this princess's name
Now it seems there's just no other way
I'll win her heart by the dawn of the third day
When I'm high and dry, she's my song of storms
When I'm cold at night, her Din's fire keeps me warm
I could feel her since the day that I was born
When I'm bloodied, battered, beaten from the longest fights
She hookshots straight to me heart and holds me tight
We'll stay up late and share our stories all night
Now I won't ever be the same
Ever since I learned this princess's name
Now it seems there's just no other way
I'll win her heart by the dawn of the third day
Now I won't ever be the same
Ever since I learned this princess's name

Monster Inside
Now I'm scared to even open my mouth
Because there's something deep inside of me
You don't know about
And I wish there was a way you could see
If I could show maybe I'd know
If I'm a man or a beast
Just take one look in my eyes
You'd see right through my disguise
She says that when I'm nearby
That she can feel my every move
When I fell apart
Yeah, something changed in my heart
As you can tell from these scars
I'm not the man that you knew before
I found something that makes me feel alive
Yet somehow dead inside
It makes me feel
It makes me numb at once
It makes no sense
Yet it still helps me see
So am I soon to be the monster that I despise?
She thinks she's mine
She must be out of her mind
I said "get back" but she wants more
And now her body's on the floor
I've got this thing in my heart
I have to hide
It's eating at me from the inside

Salvaged
(a Five Nights at Freddy's 3 song)
It's been years
Since I've seen a face around here
I was broken and alone
In that hell I called my home
You always choose to stay
Spend your nights keeping me away
You think you stand a chance to last
Against the ghosts of your past?
It's been years
Since I've seen a face around here
I was broken and alone
In that hell I called my home
Should have left me to decay
Finding me was your worst mistake
And I've found my new obsession
Now it's just you and me
You turn away
I'll be right beside you
You cut me off
But I'll always have another way to find you
My body's still mending
You're in for a sight
Another night but it doesn't get easy
Because you're stuck picking up all the pieces
That they salvaged
No matter what the ending
You won't last the night
I hear you breathing in your room
Now don't you panic
It'll all be over soon
And you can play your little games all day
You'll never be free
You block me out all you want
But I hear the sound
The echo of a "hello"
I'll come back around
No happy ending
Will ever find you
All of these ghosts are
From deep inside you
*******************************
Hold On To You
I've done my best to look inside
But I've found nothing - no shame, no pride
I need something to hang on to
I miss when you were here by my side
They dress you up to fit the part
Believe that you don't have the heart
Now I've grown so sick of running
To find I'm only at the start (I'm at the start)
They can call us heartless
Hollow vessels of what we used to be
Don't you forget about me
Now commit this to your memories
Say that we are nobodies
Only shadows were meant to fade
But I can't believe that it's true
You're a memory I can't lose
I'll hold on to you
Remember, please remeber
Remember who I used to be
Who am I, who am I
I can't find my way to reality
Oh
Got it memorized
And my heart's a battle field
And there's a war waging, a storm is raging on
But I won't forgive myself
If I fade away gone and forgotten
If you disappear then would you fear
That no one would miss you
Well you're wrong 'cause I'm not letting go
Of the days we shared
They can call us heartless
Hollow vessels of what we used to be
Don't you forget about me
Now commit this to your memories
Say that we are nobodies
Only shadows were meant to fade
But I can't believe that it's true
You're a memory I can't lose
I'll hold on to you
(Hold on to you)
(Hold on to you)
I'll hold on to you, yeah
Remember, remember
Please remember who I used to be
Who am I, who am I
I'm puppet in their game
Remember, remember
Please remember who I used to be
Who am I, who am I
I'm puppet in their game
They can call us heartless
Hollow vessels of what we used to be
Don't you forget about me
Now commit this to your memories
Say that we are nobodies
Only shadows were meant to fade
But I can't believe that it's true
You're a memory I can't lose
I'll hold on to you

No More
(a Five Nights at Freddy's song)
You can break down my lights and my doors
but I won't let you back in no more no more
I'm sick of getting stuck in the same routine again
5 nights it shouldn't seem so long
but it takes forever when you go all about it wrong
these halls are lines with blood I cant have on my hands
these walls they seem to call my name
but I refuse to be another puppet in your game
and your eyes are dead inside but tonight I leave alive
You can break down my lights and my doors
but I won't let you back in no more no more
I'm sick of getting stuck in the same routine again
Tie me up put me into a suit but I'll never ever be like you no
I know what happened here and you cant erase your past
Done what I can to try and hide
but even you can tell who I really am inside
and its not my job to watch you I'm leaving here tonight
but maybe one day you'll find humanity
until then don't you dare say that we are the same
You can break down my lights and my doors
but I won't let you back in no more no more
I'm sick of getting stuck in the same routine again
Tie me up put me into a suit but I'll never ever be like you no
I know what happened here and you cant erase your past
I crave the light of day
cause I've been keeping you away
it's driving me insane
it's driving me insane
You can break down my lights and my doors
but I won't let you back in no more no more
I'm sick of getting stuck in the same routine again
Tie me up put me into a suit but I'll never ever be like you no
I know what happened here and you cant erase your past
Maybe one day you'll find humanity

Nightmare
Just sleep
Just dream
Just sleep
Just dream
Just sleep
Just dream
In the back of my mind
I've been trying to chase a monster this whole time
But I couldn't see
The monster was me
And no one heard our cries
Now I've run out of tears
The time has come for me to disappear
Get me out of this mess
And away from this stress
Set me free so I can rest
We're only kids who lost our way
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep
Just dream
This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
We want to fly
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free
And soon we'll be set free
And I've been crying out for help
I know I bite but I mean well
Can you see my disguise
I'm different inside
Can you break this spell
And all the ghosts from before
They're knocking and they're breaking down your door
So please set us free
Now you have the key
Because I can't take the pain no more
No more
We're only kids who lost our way
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep
Just dream
This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
We want to fly
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free
We're only kids who lost our way
But if we wait long enough
We will be saved
Just sleep
Just dream
This isn't fair
No we're not just what we seem
We want to fly
But our souls are trapped inside
It's not a game
Not to blame
We're forced to hide
Just sleep
Just dream
It's only a nightmare
And soon we'll be set free

Mangled (Acoustic)
We’re back
Revamped
The madness never ends
We’re not
Alone
This time we’ve brought some friends
No doors
No hope
But you keep coming back
But if this is what you want
Then you can be just like us
Then you can be just like us
It’s what we’re made to do
You act like we’re to blame
Wear a mask to hide yourself
When really it makes us the same
A couple hours but it’s feelin' like days
Now you’re runnin' out of power
Leave you mangled and winding away
Step one
Check lights
And empty out the hall
Did you
Hear that?
There’s banging in the walls
Enjoy your
New job
Cause it might be your last
If you find it’s 6 AM
We’ll see you tomorrow
It’s what we’re made to do
You act like we’re to blame
Wear a mask to hide yourself
When really it makes us the same
A couple hours but it’s feelin' like days
Now you’re runnin' out of power
Leave you mangled, yeah
Leave you mangled and winding away
It’s what we’re made to do
You act like we’re to blame
Wear a mask to hide yourself
When really it makes us the same
A couple hours but it’s feelin' like days
Now you’re runnin' out of power
Leave you mangled
It’s what we’re made to do
You act like we’re to blame
Wear a mask to hide yourself
When really it makes us the same
A couple hours but it’s feelin' like days
Now you’re runnin' out of power
Leave you mangled and winding away

Misty (Acoustic)
I first saw you at Cerulean Gym
Just out a rocky tunnel
It was the way you'd laugh
And the way that you swim
I knew that you'd be trouble
We made such a big splash, big crash
You'll be my tidal wave
Breaks me down like an avalanche
Then we go dance in the rain
Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone
I'm gone forever
Don't tease me
My heart is freezing
Cause you whipped up
This icy weather
I'm talking in my sleep
This story won't star me
And you feel sheer cold to me
But Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover
Now I knew that my chances were slim
That much is plain to see
But I found you standing with him
And thought it should have been me
I had my chance and I blew it
My frozen heart saw right through it
I'm coming down like a crashing wake
Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone
I'm gone forever
Don't tease me
My heart is freezing
Cause you whipped up
This icy weather
I'm talking in my sleep
This story won't star me
And you feel sheer cold to me
But Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover
From the burn from when you scald my heart
Chewed me up fangs of ice and then you ripped me apart
Thunder wave I can't move I'm paralyzed around you
I got hax'd and confused from the start
Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone
I'm gone forever
Don't tease me
My heart is freezing
Cause you whipped up
This icy weather
I'm talking in my sleep
This story won't star me
And you feel sheer cold to me
Misty you're gonna miss me
When I'm gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover
Gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover
Now I'm gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover
Gone, gone forever
And I'll never recover

NOAH GUNDERSEN Carry The Ghost LYRICS
NOAH GUNDERSEN Carry The Ghost LYRICS
Slow Dancer
She watched the valley burn like a slow dancer doing turns
My name was on every tongue
And all of the smoke and ash
Like the memory of the time gone bad
Hanging like a shadow
To light it up again burn like a holy fire
Light me up again if it makes you feel free
Light me up again call me a snake and a liar
And I will be the fire that keeps you warm
Matches to gasoline I could not keep my fingers clean
Enough for your gunpowder heart
And as I lit the fuse and ran for cover where were you
Standing with your hands on the flame
Light it up again burn like a holy fire
Light me up again if it makes you feel free
Light me up again call me a snake and a liar
And I will be the fire that keeps you warm
Light it up again burn like a holy fire
Light me up again if it makes you feel free
Light me up again call me a snake and a liar
And I will be the fire that keeps you warm

Halo (Disappear_Reappear)
Under my halo
I have trouble seeing clear
You held my hand tight
Waiting to watch me disappear
I wasn't honest
To tell you the truth
I wanted it all but I want you too
All of the lessons disappear
Still haven't learned to be comfortable here
Making my mind up
Making an effort is a start
It's easy to die here
Easier still just to fall apart
All the excuses; All the copouts
Take it like a man and shut your mouth
Yeah I could make it on my own
I watched my grandfather die alone
Now that I'm alone here
Feels so familiar; Feels so strange
Running in circles
Chasing the echoes of your name
When I try and tell you
You say I don't care
Goddamn it I do and don't you dare
Make me reason to get even for the flood of your tears
I watched you disappear
I was disappearing
You reappearing
I was disappearing
Disappearing
********************************************************
Selfish Art
Sometime
Making songs for a living
Feels like living to make songs
And sometimes
I get an uneasy feeling
That I'm doing something wrong
'Cause nothing really feels like home
And I just want to be alone
Calculate the hours till the power in the well goes dry
I'm watching as the stage goes black
How long until we all go back
To being nothing at all
Nothing but a spark in someone's eye
Am I giving all that I can give
Am I earning the right to live
By looking in a mirror
There's nothing more sincere than selfish art
Sometimes
When I've got nothing to say
I think breaking a heart
Could maybe be the start of some new page
And sometimes
I play a couple war games
Using live ammunition
So I can fix what I'm missing
Most of my songs are true
Most of my songs are due to some broken people
So I could write a single
I'm watching as the stage goes black
How long until we all go back
To being nothing at all
Nothing but a spark in someone's eye
Am I giving all that I can give
Am I earning the right to live
By looking in a mirror
There's nothing more sincere than selfish art
I'm watching as the stage goes black
How long until we all go back
To being nothing at all
Nothing but a spark in someone's eye
Am I giving all that I can give
Am I earning the right to live
By looking in a mirror
There's nothing more sincere than selfish art
There's nothing more sincere than an empty heart
There's nothing more sincere than who we are
Than who we are

Show Me The Light
I watched you watching Dylan like you’re watching a saint
And I could not help but notice everything he is I ain’t
So I filled up every notebook I could put to my hand
Hoping that you would not notice I was a boy and not a man
Back then
Singing you to sleep and making you laugh
Gave me a reason to work on my craft
Now that I’m older I finally see
You were the worst and the best thing that happened to me
I watched you watching Jesus like you’re watching a star
Started praying you’d find room for both of us in your heart
But the more I tried the more I’d find I could not pretend
To give a damn for your religion or for all your shitty friends
Back then
Every Sunday I would sit in your row
Praying that one day you would finally notice
But now that I’m older I finally see
You were the worst and the best thing that happened to me
Show me the light
Show me the light
I’ll take it from here honey
Show me the light
Show me the light
I’ll take it from here honey

The Difference
Why try
Why try and fix it
Little doll
Little broken doll in stitches
Maybe you were made this way
Maybe the pieces were intentionally different
So why try
Why try and fix it
It’s all gonna change
If you were right
What makes it different
If you were wrong
Would you know the difference
Difference
So I hope
I hope I don’t miss it
Thought I know
I probably just won’t get it
Maybe we were made this way
Maybe we weren’t made
Maybe we just got here
Learning from our mistakes
Maybe there are no mistakes
Maybe we don’t know
What we’re looking at
The ever pressing question takes a toll
If you were right
What makes it different
If you were wrong
Would you know the difference
Difference
Why try and fight
All of this missing
Hope I get it right
Before the ending
Ending

Silver Bracelet
Silver bracelet in my cup
Holder marks like bread crumbs on your trail line
And the pictures on the fridge
From the booth in Tennessee that one time
When I was in love and you were in love with me also
Holding my hand
Kissing my mouth like you wanted to
Back before the money took its toll
Back before the rhythm lost its soul
Back before I made up my mind to go
And the house we shared together
Little pink up Cripple Creek she sent me
Through the times of joy and plenty
Just as well the times of crippling doubt
What I didn’t know is
Not knowing shows where your heart is
Not but it’s not like I could’ve just stopped ‘cause I felt so
Back before we worked it to the bone
Back before we really should have known
Back before I made up my mind to go
********************************************************
I Need A Woman
Candy box hotel in Europe
Found a couple hours on my own
I should be going out but I can’t do it
Lately I just need some time alone
Hope I grow up to be a winner
Hope that I someday understand
The space between the man and the mirror
I’ve been trying but I don’t think I can
I need a woman
To hold my hand
To make me feel
More like a man
I need a woman
It’s sad but true
I need a woman
You can build yourself a heart like a basement
Trust me that is easier to do
And then that fire comes it’s safer I admit it
Block out all the light that makes it true
Oh but your start to lose your vision
Huddled in the dark behind the door
And when you feel that chill come cold and bitter
You remember what that fire was for
I need a woman
To hold my hand
To make me feel
More like a man
I need a woman
It’s sad but true
I need a woman
I need a woman

Jealous Love
I don't want no jealous love
Honey I've had enough of it
All my life, bringing me down
I don't want no heartless ruck
Honey, getting stuck
Having so many words
But nothing left to sing
I want it better than I've ever had
I want it better then
So give me the good times
Give me the bad
I want it better than I've ever had
I don't want to be a crutch
Honey, you take too much
From me, or you for me
I will never be your shining knight
Honey, your Mr Right
But I would do all I can to be your man
I want it better than I've ever had
I want it better then
So give me the good times
Give me the bad
I want it better than I've ever had
Don't want your sympathy
Just want your honesty
Will you honestly want me?
I'll call you every night
I will try to find a little more good in me
To give to you
I want it better than I've ever had
I want it better then
So give me the good times
Give me the bad
I want it better than I've ever had
********************************************************
Empty From The Start
Stars falling from the sky
Buildings burning all the time
Tall rivers running wild
Stretching out for miles and miles
I think I heard a good man say
God is love and love has made us
But have you seen the news today
I have and I think God is gone away
If he was ever there anyway
‘Cause anyone who tells you they were born good is lying
We’re just born and we are dying
And I know it’s been said but mothers be good to your daughters
And then they’re older sons be good to your fathers
This is all we have
This is all we are
Blood and bones no Holy Ghost
Empty from the start
There’s nothing you can do honey
Nothing you can do that would save me
There’s nothing you can do honey
Nothing you can do but lately
I don’t mind
‘Cause I’ve been finding
The only thing worth loving more than me is loving you
You get stuck staring at the past
You get stuck looking at the future through a looking glass
Time is gone when time was slow
This time is all you have and now it’s gone but now you know
And I hope you save
A picture of me in your pocket when I’m gone away
And I will do the same for you
To truly love someone is the closest I have come to truth
This is all we have
This is all we are
Blood and bones no Holy Ghost
Empty from the start
There’s nothing you can do honey
Nothing you can do that would save me
There’s nothing you can do honey
Nothing you can do but lately
I don’t mind
‘Cause I’ve been finding
The only thing worth loving more than me is loving you
********************************************************
Blossom
Forego your hope
Save it from the ashes
Of the will you wrote
Everything passes away
Hold out for what you thought you were making
Just long enough to realize you’re going the wrong way
Oh you hold my heart forever
But I can’t hold onto what’s not there
May you blossom like a flower
May you go dancing in the air
Give up
Give back all that was taken
Return
Relax
This feeling is not here to stay
Oh you hold my heart forever
But I can’t hold onto what’s not there
May you blossom like a flower
May you go dancing in the air
********************************************************
Topless Dancer
If you lived in the shadow of the mountain
Would you notice when the mountain was gone
If you played in the sparkling fountain
Would the drought seem twice as long
If at night you slept with strangers in their houses
And in the morning sang a traveling song
Would you feel a little bit stronger when they were gone
She sang to me the rhythm of autumn
It was there that I found my space
In the search for the perfect Madonna
To bear the burden of amazing grace
I found her as a topless dancer
Making a mess of the place
She too no questions and she gave no answers
She just sang
Hold tight
Don’t leave the light on for me
Because I just might
But myself loose and go free
I hope you see the topless dancer in me
I learned to ask the Lord for forgiveness
Before I learned to forgive myself
So I wore myself thin as a window
And hung my trophies from a shelf
When I woke up in the morning from a good good dream
I felt the burden of unspeakable guilt
I washed the milky white stain from my bed sheets
And I prayed for help
So to the priests and the prophets
Who say our bodies are godless
Oh tell me what the hell does that mean
I hope you see
I hope you see
I hope you see the topless dancer in me
********************************************************
Heartbreaker
Settle down, head against the window
counting hours by the handful of plastic bottle shots
coming home, sleeping in my own bed
waking up to the silence
I’m no good at this at all
I need a good distraction, honey if you could come by
and hold me like you want me, like that would make me happy,
like that would take the pain away if only for a while
and maybe in the morning, leave without a warning
just a note on the pillowcase that says “I never wanted more”
Cuddle up, wrap your arms around me
don’t lace it up with sympathy
it’s just easy if you’re sleeping
soon enough I’ll be leaving here tomorrow,
and all the pain and the sorrow makes it easier to go
I need a good distraction, honey if you could come by
and hold me like you want me, like that would make me happy,
like that would take the pain away if only for a while
and maybe in the morning, leave without a warning
just a note on the pillowcase that says “I never wanted more”
oh, heartbreaker, name-taker, ladies man,
oh, heartbreaker, name-taker, heartbreaker, ladies man, oh

I probably just won’t get it
Maybe we were made this way
Maybe we weren’t made
Maybe we just got here
Learning from our mistakes
Maybe there are no mistakes
Maybe we don’t know
What we’re looking at
The ever pressing question takes a toll
If you were right
What makes it different
If you were wrong
Would you know the difference
Difference
Why try and fight
All of this missing
Hope I get it right
Before the ending
Ending

Silver Bracelet
Silver bracelet in my cup
Holder marks like bread crumbs on your trail line
And the pictures on the fridge
From the booth in Tennessee that one time
When I was in love and you were in love with me also
Holding my hand
Kissing my mouth like you wanted to
Back before the money took its toll
Back before the rhythm lost its soul
Back before I made up my mind to go
And the house we shared together
Little pink up Cripple Creek she sent me
Through the times of joy and plenty
Just as well the times of crippling doubt
What I didn’t know is
Not knowing shows where your heart is
Not but it’s not like I could’ve just stopped ‘cause I felt so
Back before we worked it to the bone
Back before we really should have known
Back before I made up my mind to go

I Need A Woman
Candy box hotel in Europe
Found a couple hours on my own
I should be going out but I can’t do it
Lately I just need some time alone
Hope I grow up to be a winner
Hope that I someday understand
The space between the man and the mirror
I’ve been trying but I don’t think I can
I need a woman
To hold my hand
To make me feel
More like a man
I need a woman
It’s sad but true
I need a woman
You can build yourself a heart like a basement
Trust me that is easier to do
And then that fire comes it’s safer I admit it
Block out all the light that makes it true
Oh but your start to lose your vision
Huddled in the dark behind the door
And when you feel that chill come cold and bitter
You remember what that fire was for
I need a woman
To hold my hand
To make me feel
More like a man
I need a woman
It’s sad but true
I need a woman
I need a woman

Jealous Love
I don't want no jealous love
Honey I've had enough of it
All my life, bringing me down
I don't want no heartless ruck
Honey, getting stuck
Having so many words
But nothing left to sing
I want it better than I've ever had
I want it better then
So give me the good times
Give me the bad
I want it better than I've ever had
I don't want to be a crutch
Honey, you take too much
From me, or you for me
I will never be your shining knight
Honey, your Mr Right
But I would do all I can to be your man
I want it better than I've ever had
I want it better then
So give me the good times
Give me the bad
I want it better than I've ever had
Don't want your sympathy
Just want your honesty
Will you honestly want me?
I'll call you every night
I will try to find a little more good in me
To give to you
I want it better than I've ever had
I want it better then
So give me the good times
Give me the bad
I want it better than I've ever had

Empty From The Start
Stars falling from the sky
Buildings burning all the time
Tall rivers running wild
Stretching out for miles and miles
I think I heard a good man say
God is love and love has made us
But have you seen the news today
I have and I think God is gone away
If he was ever there anyway
‘Cause anyone who tells you they were born good is lying
We’re just born and we are dying
And I know it’s been said but mothers be good to your daughters
And then they’re older sons be good to your fathers
This is all we have
This is all we are
Blood and bones no Holy Ghost
Empty from the start
There’s nothing you can do honey
Nothing you can do that would save me
There’s nothing you can do honey
Nothing you can do but lately
I don’t mind
‘Cause I’ve been finding
The only thing worth loving more than me is loving you
You get stuck staring at the past
You get stuck looking at the future through a looking glass
Time is gone when time was slow
This time is all you have and now it’s gone but now you know
And I hope you save
A picture of me in your pocket when I’m gone away
And I will do the same for you
To truly love someone is the closest I have come to truth
This is all we have
This is all we are
Blood and bones no Holy Ghost
Empty from the start
There’s nothing you can do honey
Nothing you can do that would save me
There’s nothing you can do honey
Nothing you can do but lately
I don’t mind
‘Cause I’ve been finding
The only thing worth loving more than me is loving you

Blossom
Forego your hope
Save it from the ashes
Of the will you wrote
Everything passes away
Hold out for what you thought you were making
Just long enough to realize you’re going the wrong way
Oh you hold my heart forever
But I can’t hold onto what’s not there
May you blossom like a flower
May you go dancing in the air
Give up
Give back all that was taken
Return
Relax
This feeling is not here to stay
Oh you hold my heart forever
But I can’t hold onto what’s not there
May you blossom like a flower
May you go dancing in the air

Topless Dancer
If you lived in the shadow of the mountain
Would you notice when the mountain was gone
If you played in the sparkling fountain
Would the drought seem twice as long
If at night you slept with strangers in their houses
And in the morning sang a traveling song
Would you feel a little bit stronger when they were gone
She sang to me the rhythm of autumn
It was there that I found my space
In the search for the perfect Madonna
To bear the burden of amazing grace
I found her as a topless dancer
Making a mess of the place
She too no questions and she gave no answers
She just sang
Hold tight
Don’t leave the light on for me
Because I just might
But myself loose and go free
I hope you see the topless dancer in me
I learned to ask the Lord for forgiveness
Before I learned to forgive myself
So I wore myself thin as a window
And hung my trophies from a shelf
When I woke up in the morning from a good good dream
I felt the burden of unspeakable guilt
I washed the milky white stain from my bed sheets
And I prayed for help
So to the priests and the prophets
Who say our bodies are godless
Oh tell me what the hell does that mean
I hope you see
I hope you see
I hope you see the topless dancer in me
********************************************************
Heartbreaker
Settle down, head against the window
counting hours by the handful of plastic bottle shots
coming home, sleeping in my own bed
waking up to the silence
I’m no good at this at all
I need a good distraction, honey if you could come by
and hold me like you want me, like that would make me happy,
like that would take the pain away if only for a while
and maybe in the morning, leave without a warning
just a note on the pillowcase that says “I never wanted more”
Cuddle up, wrap your arms around me
don’t lace it up with sympathy
it’s just easy if you’re sleeping
soon enough I’ll be leaving here tomorrow,
and all the pain and the sorrow makes it easier to go
I need a good distraction, honey if you could come by
and hold me like you want me, like that would make me happy,
like that would take the pain away if only for a while
and maybe in the morning, leave without a warning
just a note on the pillowcase that says “I never wanted more”
oh, heartbreaker, name-taker, ladies man,
oh, heartbreaker, name-taker, heartbreaker, ladies man, oh
