Bigger Bads
04:56
|
|||
As I walk through forests burning
And the city cracks and frays
I feel the spirits die
And the gods all turn away
And though I have fought
So many before
Oh, I’ve heard them say
That the bigger they are…
At the break of dawn
A burning agony
With a vicious tongue
The madness swallows me
A darkness falls
In the hearts of evil men
They’ll hunt us down
A search that never ends
Now the monsters come
See the monsters come for me
They tower high
They come to pick me clean
Am I alone
The lights are going out
Here come the bads
Here come the bigger bads
Mind control
Satanic puppet show
Our hearts explode
Talk fast, your brains are slowed
Rank and file
Dogs walk the longest mile
Can’t come home
Too late to reconcile
Conspiracies
They trade in mystery
A maze of death
Pray angels set me free
My guts are shocked
Tick down, atomic clock
You think you’re bad
We’ve got some bigger bads
Rise and shine
Before we die
If I fight the good fight
Will you be there
My friend
We’re bigger than you
We’re badder than you

Heart Of Darkness
03:27

All the fools in love
Never met two like us
They say I've got a heart of darkness
That's alright with me
'Cause when I'm running in the shadows
That's where I want to be
Change is all we know
Onward as we roam
You reach inside this heart of darkness
Broken pieces, empty shell
We've always put each other back together
After every time we fell
Deep inside this heart of darkness
I'm just a killer for your love
And if they try to separate us
I'll send them to the man above
Yeah, deep inside this heart of darkness
I never want to be alone
'Cause when I sink into the shadows
I remember what feels like home

He Ain't Gonna Die
05:08
|
|||
Reaching out for falling sand
The clock, it ticks for the fallen man
And I feel my eyes see into forever
I'll fall away into the sky
And never wonder why
And I've heard her pray
Oh please don't let him die
Yeah they always say
No he ain't gonna die
Featherfall into the madness
Gods are standing in my way again
All I wanted were some answers
I've manifested destiny
Unsurreptitiously
And I've heard her pray
Oh please don't let him die
Yeah they always say
No he ain't gonna die
I once felt the fear of dying
Just echoes of a life before - no more
Long since have I given up trying
Yet still can't resign, accept my fate
Before it's too late
And maybe some day
I'll spread my wings and fly
From some far away
You'll hear an eagle's cry
And I've heard her pray
Oh please don't let him die
Yeah they always say
No he ain't gonna die

My Name Too
03:13
|
|||
I've been around the block
About a thousand times or two
Don't tell me what I've got to lose
Oh here we go again
I've heard that I'm dead weight
Just holding back the crew
Don't remember asking you
Now let me speak my peace
About a thing or two
You know I'll take no shit
From anyone like you
Ain't you got better
Things to do
And now you call me names
I'm a freak and I'm a fool
I'll jingle on my way
'Cause you know that's my name too
I'm gonna speak my mind
I'm breaking down the door
I'm counting down the time
Don't waste a second more
You know that's for sure
Hey man, you feeling down
Think this might do the trick
They see me rolling, yeah
With my faithful hoop and stick
You know I'll take no shit
From anyone like you
Ain't you got better
Things to do
And now you call me names
I'm a freak and I'm a fool
I'll jingle on my way
'Cause you know that's my name too

In Memoriam
05:38
|
|||
As I walk in the shadow of death
I think about that summer sky
Holding back my final breath
I look into the spider's eyes
All alone at the end of time
Standing cold in a blackness I can't see
I taste the poison piercing deep
It's slow release
Called into the dark eternal night
Their cozened whispers shedding light
All around me crawling
And spinning the webs that bind
Dark voices christened in my Hell
I'm turning into someone else
I'm a voodoo puppet
So stick me full of pins
I'll shut my mouth to hide the scream
Can I just die inside this dream
And now I'm frozen
I'll die here, hello the end
God's coming to collect his debt
Make beleive I've still got some time yet
Everything's gone dark now
I'm burried in my sleep
A father's sins pass to the son
The price I pay for those long gone
I've waited long to be set free
To be a faded memory
My whithered body, choking blood
Left to recall the ones I've loved
So tear me open, piece by piece
Where not a soul remembers me
Will you remember me

Son Of Mann
07:12
|

By the stars above
In darkness, in love
A devil reads the signs
A son is now alive
Brace yourselves, now is the time
Demon child led by the blind
I'm watching from afar
They don't know who you are
Now you've got a taste for blood
Take of the fallen lamb
Spread hellish wings across the sky
Unleash the beast within
Abandoned at the door
Taken for a ride
Spread black wings once more
And wait to turn the tide
Make the peasants run in fear
Dark bringer of the end
Regenerate the spear wounds
Watch them now repent
Become what's meant to be
Take the final form
Heed not such frailty
A mother's son, reborn

Blind Vengeance
08:59
|

Missing trust, how could it get this far
Thought I knew exactly who you are
Stood together through every last attack
Caught myself a knife in the back
Taking sides
Lines are drawn and the battle born
Learning to lie
Self-defense in the purest form
Lost in a time
When bridges charred and burned away
Blackening skies
Scowling down on a darker day
Building the walls and falling apart
Karma spins right back to the start
All of the words seem hollow and dim
Dream of the day when I get my revenge
Sharpen up the axes, for the
Walls are left defenseless
All the buried hatchets rising up
From the grave
In your mind a wizard's curse
Always expect the very worst
In all the allies once stood fighting
Right there by your side
Building the walls and falling apart
Karma spins right back to the start
All of the words seem hollow and dim
Dream of the day when I finally win
All the effects of seasons past
Never thought the hate would last
Pick up remaining shards of the world
Look to time when all the pieces are revealed

Too Dope For You
04:58
|

Hammerstein, it's hammer-time
Droppin' beats and spittin' rhymes
It's a crime, take a bite
Back in time, hello McFly
Disbelieve, I said I got this
What's up girl, my Nippon hotness
From the streets, I'm thug life livin'
Send your brain a psychic vision
Place a call, smooth operator
At the tone, don't hate the player
Chase the herd, if you're a bird
Make some noise and spread the word
Hell and back, a heart attack
Break the rules, grab your gat
Show them wild dogs that their
Bark is weak and bite is whack
This place is all hate and no hope
David here, Goliath a no show
Don't front, don't act like you don't know
Sober up, you know that I'm too dope
Too dope for you
Rebecca Black, get down on Friday
Yeah I'm fly, don't call me Valle
Kick it back and drink mimosas
Spend a weekend in Carcosa
Run with the devil, on the level
Split up gang, it's time to meddle
Robot games, it's time to play
Hide and seek, pop and spray
Bitch is hot, she startin' fires
About to blow, man, cut the wires
Bendin' light inside black holes
Made a plan to bust some skulls
Lock it down, this one horse town
Get outta Dodge, it's my turf now
It's dangerous, don't go out alone
It's half past ten, we're halfway home
This place is all hate and no hope
David here, Goliath a no show
Don't front, don't act like you don't know
Sober up, you know that I'm too dope
Too dope for you

Where Is N616
08:38

Wait for a savior, turn water to wine
Act as an angel for body and mind
A voice of white lies I can't recognize
Gunmetal echoes binding the ties
Sever the nerves, strike from the hip
Resent all the senses at your fingertips
By way of fire, I waver and wind
Hopeless to wander, broken and blind
Hearing these voices from across the world
A nagging in your mind, an echoing verb
A dead weight, a burden, a pile of regrets
Sifting through ashes, shifting again
Everyone fired and never we died
Now I'm so tired, and broken up wide
Carried your picture for all of my days
Pointing the finger and counting the ways
I hope that I'll see you before it's my time
Before I'm like the others, alone when they died
Lately I'm forgetting to always read between the lines
Long have I been searching for the ones who left me far behind
So where am I
And where are you
Is my long range transmission getting through
If you're hearing this
It's N616
I'm still right here
I still exist
So where are you
And where am I
Please repond, I am running out of time
If you're hearing this
It's N616
I'm still right here
I still exist
Chasing the others and falling behind
Fighting the monster I'm becoming inside
Writing my letters to an old friend
The look in your eyes, last chance to pretend
I hope that I'll see you before it's my time
Before I'm like the others, alone when they died
Lately I'm forgetting to always read between the lines
Long have I been searching for the ones who left me far behind
So where am I
And where are you
Is my long range transmission getting through
If you're hearing this
It's N616
I'm still right here
I still exist
So where are you
And where am I
Please respond, I am running out of time
If you're hearing this
It's N616
I'm still right here
I still exist

By Hammer, By Nail

Oh this nice place has seen some better days, I swear
It falls apart, it all lies in disrepair
Sometimes I think that the world, it just ain't fair
You walk for miles, without ever getting there
I've built a house inside my head
With all the demons that I've met
Smashing walls and trashing halls
And setting fire to the beds
Given tools, I can repair my broken home
All alone
So by hammer, and by nail
I'll build my walls to last for good
Built this machine, though I know not what it does
Answers will show themselves when the time comes
I'm not afraid, it's just progress anyway
Don't need your therapy, and I don't care what you say
I've built a house inside my head
With all the demons that I've met
Smashing walls and trashing halls
And setting fire to the beds
Given tools, I can repair my broken home
All alone
So by hammer, and by nail
I'll build my walls to last for good

Other Childish Things
09:47

I see them fighting in the streets
The war is torn
Run on through the fire
Like a raging rhino bloodied at the horn
I see them taking sides
Drawing lines across the sand
I know how hard they fight
This battle of the damned
The lights have all gone out
In the dark they stand alone
If they open their eyes they'll find
Redemption for their souls
And now they wait their whole lifetimes
For the ones
To take them far away
Take these smoking guns
Flames fall from the sky
Engulf this empty town
The players take the stage
Will they make it to the bow
Glory, hallelujah
They wander and they roam
And now you're praying
All lost children come back home
The time has gone too far
To end this peacefully
And though I'm growing old
Don't take these childish things from me
Look deep inside and start
To wash away the hate
These words, all heard before
But redemption's not too late
Red quills mark their names
In black books of despair
We're only halfway home
We'll make it there, I swear
Glory, hallelujah
They wander and they roam
And now you're praying
All lost children come back home
The time has gone too far
To end this peacefully
And though I'm growing old
Don't take these childish things from me

Road Trip
04:07

It's a new day, and summer's here
It's time for us to hit the road
And face our fears
In the car now, we'll make it somehow
Take a giant step toward the dangers
From below
Unfold the mystery, from ancient history
We'll send the evil back to
Where it came
Around every turn something new to learn
And every stop I think may
Be our last
We're on a road trip
To save the world
So pack up your bags, and hop in the car
Cause we're going far
Don't you look back to places you've been
It's full speed ahead
We'll travel on, until the end
Psychic vampires, and a blown out tire
And a cult to the great old ones
Bent on death
From Sunny Vale, to Candle Cove
Better watch out if we're
Coming near your home
We're on a road trip
To save the world
So pack up your bags, and hop in the car
Cause we're going far
Don't you look back to places you've been
It's full speed ahead
We'll save the day again and again
We're on a road trip
To save the world
So pack up your bags, and hop in the car
Cause we're going far
Don't you look back to places you've been
It's full speed ahead
We'll travel on, until the end
