1. Opening Message
2. Red Hill Mining Town
From father to son
The blood runs thin
I see faces frozen still against the wind
The seam is split
The coal face cracked
The lines are long
There's no going back
Through hands of steel
And heart of stone
Our labor day has come and gone
Yeah, you leave me holding on
In red hill town
See lights go down
Hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
Glass is cut
Bottle runs dry
Our love runs cold
In the caverns of the night
We're wounded by fear
Injured in doubt
I can lose myself
But i can't live without
Yeah, you keep me holding on
In red hill town
See the lights go down
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting
Hanging on
All that's left to hold on to
We scorch the earth
Set fire to the sky
We stoop so low to reach so high
A link is lost
The chain undone
We wait all day
For night to come
And it comes
Like a hunted child
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
Love slowly stripped away
Love has seen a better day
Hanging on
Lights go out on red hill
Lights go down on red hill
Lights go down on red hill town
Lights go down on red hill
Lights go down on red hill town
Lights go down on red hill
3. Tears (Rush Cover)
All of the seasons
And all of the days
All of the reasons
Why I've felt this way
So long
So long
Then lost in that feeling
I looked in your eyes
I noticed emotion
And that you had cried
For me
I can see
What would touch me deeper
Tears that fall from eyes
That only cry?
Would it touch you deeper
Than tears that fall from eyes
That know why?
A lifetime of questions
Tears on your cheek
I tasted the answers
And my body was weak
For you
The truth
4. Damage Inc (Metallica Cover w/ Barney Greenway)
Dealing out the agony within
charging hard and no one's gonna give in
Living on your knees, conformity
or dying on your feet for honesty
Inbred, our bodies work as one
bloody, but never cry submission
Following our instinct not a trend
go against the grain until the end
[Chorus:]
Blood will follow blood
Dying time is here
Damage Incorporated
[End Chorus]
Slamming through, don't fuck with razorback
stepping out? You'll feel our hell on your back
Blood follows blood and we make sure
life ain't for you and we're the cure
Honesty is my only excuse
Try to rob us of it, but it's no use
Steamroller action crushing all
Victim is your name and you shall fall
[Chorus]
We chew and spit you out
we laugh, you scream and shout
All flee, with fear you run
You'll know just where we come from
Damage Incorporated
Damage jackals ripping right through you
sight and smell of this, it gets me goin'
Know just how to get just what we want
tear it from your soul in nightly hunt
Fuck it all and fucking no regrets
Never happy ending on these dark sets
All's fair for Damage Inc. you see
step a little closer if you please
[Chorus].
5. Oh Holy Night
O holy night
The stars are brightly shining
It 'tis the night of our dear savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
'til he appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A prayer of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night, when christ was born
Truly he taught us to love one another
His law is love and his gospel is peace
Chains shall he break for the slave is our brother
And in his name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise his holy name.
Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night, when christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night, when christ was born
Oh night, when christ was born
When christ was born Oh night
when christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night, when christ was born
When christ was born
Christ was born
