1. Godless
godless
feeling
in me
night after night
godless
feeling
in me
born of their lies
you gave me all of this
and more
yeah that's for sure
i can't believe in all your pain
under the draining of a christian deities blood
you tell your children
they're insane
i couldn't love it anymore
i had to listen to my heart
i couldn't take it anymore
and so you leave me
godless
just spread your tentacles of hate around my life
i've taken more than you could ever give
you can't believe that someone challenges your right
i'm gonna send you back your pain
i couldn't love it anymore
i had to listen to my heart
i couldn't take it anymore
and so you leave me
godless
i ask all who have gathered here
to join me
in this feast
may we always be strong
in body
spirit
and mind
and all of those who would try to harm us
let them be cast aside
2. Anything
anything you want
anything the world has to offer
i can give you
if you just reach out to me
take my hand
everything a kiss cannot bring
i will give you
if you just say you will
and it's freedom
in my arms
and it's freedom
in my arms
in my arms
in my arms
in my arms
anything you want
anythingthis world has to offer
i can give you
all this world
and its glories
and its sins
i will give it all to you
take my hand
if you just say
you will
anything you want
it's in my arms
anything you need
it's in my arms
anything you want
it's in my arms
anything you need
it's in my loving arms
in my arms
in my arms
in my arms
3. Bodies
bodies
please don't cry
bodies don't die
bodies
please don't cry
bodies
i've been taking all the silver
i've been saving all the gold
i'm gonna stuff it down the throat
of a week old corpse
save that doggone soul
i've been saving up my pain
i'm gonna give it back in spades
i've been strangling the cries
from the murder of love
save your soul tonight
bodies
please don't cry
bodies don't die
bodies
please don't cry
bodies
i've been rasing up the dead
gonna send them to the house of cain
i've been praying in light
of the warning moon
slay your doggone soul
i've been taken outta heaven
i've been put upon this world
i been walking up and down
to and fro
save your doggone soul
bodies
please don't cry
bodies don't die
bodies
please don't cry
bodies
i got bodies on the left
i got bodies on the right
i got bodiesup and down
all across town
save your soul tonight
4. How the Gods Kill
if you feel alive
in a darkened room
do you know the name
of your solitude
if you ain't got the answe
rif you don't know the truth
if you want the power
then let it flow through
would you let it go?
would you let it go?
they cannot end this mourning
of my life
show me
how the gods kill
if you feel alive
if you got no fear
do you know the name
of the one you seek
if you want the answer
if you want the truth
look inside your empty soul
there you'll find the noose
would you let it go?
would you let it go?
they cannot end this mourning
of my life
show me
how the gods kill
5. Dirty Black Summer
no summer in the winter time
will keep you warm
like a funeral pyre
and nothing like an august night
drenched in your loving
i got a dirty black summer
and nothing in the coolest light
can't stop the walking out across the line
no holding back the summer night
i got a feeling it's just a dirty black summer
6. Left Hand Black
kinda like a dog w/ seven pupils in its eyekinda like a madness that refuses to subside
kinda like everything you want
just w/in your grasp
kinda like how a banshee-wail
dances on a living heart
i'm gonna stand at the top of the world
challenge the heavens
gonna bring you god
gonna bring you god
in the pain of the lefthandblack
gonna bring you god
kinda like when the sun goes down
and darkness makes its climb
kinda like all your muscle tissue
starting to unwind
kinda like if you brave the hate
feed itto the left hand black
how i know i can take their power
send it back at triple times strength
i'm gonna stand at the top of the world
challenge the heavens
gonna bring you god
gonna bring you god
in the pain of the lefthandblack
gonna bring you god
how i see the battle
and the bleeding human race
how i miss the taste of it
it's sweet and warm embrace
how i see the world's demise
its last and final gasp
how i see reality explode into another kind of life
i'm gonna stand at the top of the world
challenge the heavens
gonna bring you god
gonna bring you god
in the pain of the lefthandblack
gonna bring you god
7. Heart of the Devil
i am heart of thedevil
i have heart of the devil
i can make a man
freeze in his tracks
i can make a man
fall to his death
i can make a girl
so eager to please
i can make a young girl
lay down for me
because i'm evil and love is gone
i can make the skies thunder and shake
i can make the world
tremble and quake
i can make your pulse pound in your veins
i can make your heart stop and start again
because i'm evil
love is gone
i can make the world
tremble and shake
i can make the skies
black in my wake
i can make a girl
so eager to please
i can make a young girl
lay down for me
because i'm evil and love is gone
my love is gone
8. Sistinas
take my hand
you'll never find
another
quite like mine
if you look
you'll see that i'm
a lonely one
ilost my soul
deep inside
and it's so
black
and cold
deep inside
sistine smile
you'll never know
the trap it's set
and if you did
you'll never look
into its eyes
the sun don't shine
the wind won't blow
when you go hide
without your love
i'm lonely
deep inside
9. Do You Wear the Mark?
devil on the left
angel on the right
there's no mistake
who'll i be w/ tonight
over the fore
lamb's head on my lap
days
pass like weeks w/o the sight
then comes the fury of the lullaby
then comes the fury of the lullaby
heartbeat in a hole
an eyeball
loose and wild
dropping memories
out upon the open tiles
and over to the left
there sit the loveless ones
crying slowly and sucking on a gun
do you wear the mark
do you wear the mark
darling darling
do you wear the mark
10. When the Dying Calls
out of the night
comes a timeless thing
calmin simplicity
whispers soft a seductive voice
meant for the human ear
down down down
i'm gonna take you down
that's when the dying calls
if i look in the dark of this world
if i lose i don't mind
that's when the dying calls
down thru the ages from the dawn of time
roam thru the world of dreams
up from the black of the mississippi mud
calling out to everything
down down down
i'm gonna bring you down
that's when the dying calls
if i play in the dark of this world
if i lose i don't mind
that's when the dying calls
