1. Devil by the Tail
Oh to be the fire, I am just a man
Oh to walk the wire, believing that I can
And reach on down your throat
To tear it out
Find out what the inside's all about
Justify my envy
Jealousy to fail
In perfect, deadly harmony
Hold the devil by the tail
Devil, by the tail
Oh to slay the liar, he speaks for me, a man
Oh to try, conspire, believing that I can
Reach into your heart
And pull it out
Find out what the beating’s all about
Justify my envy
Jealousy to fail
In perfect, deadly harmony
Hold the devil by the tail
Devil, by the tail
Run your devil up the pole
Into my domain
The forgotten drool, like rabid dogs
By any other name
They growl, they bark, they gnaw at me
I still hear them wail
Pray to hold what I hold
A devil by the tail
Devil, by the tail
Run your devil, out your soul
By any other name
Devil, by the tail
Run your devil, take control
Before we go insane
Devil...
Hey Mr. Lucifer, do you have my pay?
I’m done with working here, as of today
Hey Mr. Savior, do you ever seem to fail?
And got what I got, a devil by the tail
Devil...
By the tail...
2. Damned
Took a little time, before we’re done to love me
Took a little more than I ever did before
Took your bad intentions
Took your all excite
If I didn’t mention,
Took my inhuman rights
It’s a heavy-weight title bout
The more I live the more I find out
Damned, for if I love me
Damned, for if I care
Damned, for all the make ya feel betters
As the damned scream, this ain't fair
Damned, for if I love me
Damned, for if I care
Damned, for all the make ya feel betters
As the damned scream, this ain’t fair
Had a little time before I went and fucked me
Had a little trouble getting up off the floor
Had you’re I’m not like that
Had a hand up in my face
Head bobbing like a wet rat
No love for the human race
The more fuel, the farther I go
The more I live, the more I...
No-no-no
Damned, for if I love me
Damned, for if I care
Damned, for all the make ya feel betters
As the damned scream, this ain't fair
Damned, for if I love me
Damned, for if I care
Damned, for all the make ya feel betters
As the damned scream, this ain’t fair
Damned if I do and damned if I don’t
Damned if I will and damned if I won't
Damned for your screamin’ that this ain’t fair
God damn your dreamin’, 'cause I don’t care
Took a little time before you tried to do me
Made a little spot for ya right there, on the floor
So fuck your good intentions
Fuck your human rights
Fuck your finger in my face
This time I’m gonna bite
Damned, for if I love me
Damned, for if I care
Damned, for all the make ya feel betters
As the damned scream, this ain't fair
Damned, for if I love me
Damned, for if I care
Damned, for all the make ya feel betters
As the damned scream, this ain’t fair
3. No Lights
You know when I think of you
And I feel to let it out
For what we did pursue
And all we were about
And when I think of who
Flooding me with light
Don’t think you need to hear this
Yeah, you did it right
It’s over, but yeah, we have taken the light
It’s over, by winning for losing the fight
Over, it’s over, it’s over
It’s gone into flight
Right here by my side
As I ride
I found meaning
In the words that you would speak
And I found strength
Inside the fact that we were weak
And when I picture you
Covered in our rags
If this man shall fall
Who will take the flag?
It’s over, but yeah, we have taken the light
It’s over, by winning for losing the fight
Over, it’s over, it’s over
It’s gone into flight
Right here by my side
As I ride
Hard rubber and a wind-blown face
Got a full-blown eight-eight
To get us home
No trouble, got an extra ace
Gotta stand-up, throw-down
Never let me be alone
Over, it’s over, it’s over
You’ve taken my lights
Over, it’s over, it’s over
Right here by my side
As I ride
To have known you
Still helps to get me through
And to thank-you now
Is all that I could do
When I motor on
On into the night
I know that you are there
I know you are my lights
Over, it’s over, it’s over
You’ve taken my lights
Over, it’s over, it’s over
Right here by my side
As I ride
There’s no light
As I ride...
4. The One
An all out panic, thrashing
Splitting you in half
Mistook your sobbing for a laugh
Travel close concealed,
I’ll leave the door ajar
So who has taken you this far?
Call if you need
I’m right over here
With my finger on the trigger
And if you need me
Fall, and you’ll bleed
As the demon appear
It’s time to stand, deliver
And if you know me
I am your stand and deliver
I am your shot, the golden gun
I am your voice in the sliver
I am, I am, I am the one
I am your stand and deliver
I am your shot, the golden gun
I am your voice in the sliver
I am, I am, I am the one
Now when you get inside,
Be careful what you say
Don’t be mistaken for the prey
Low to ground is best
Attend to the bizarre
So who has taken you this far?
I’ve seen you before
Call if you need
I’m right over here
With my finger on the trigger
And if you need me
Fall, and you’ll bleed
When the demon appear
It’s time to stand, deliver
And if you know me
I am your stand and deliver
I am your shot, the golden gun
I am your voice in the sliver
I am, I am, I am the one
I am your stand and deliver
I am your shot, the golden gun
I am your voice in the sliver
I am, I am, I am the one
I am the one...
I'm the only son, with a loaded gun
I am your stand and deliver
I am your shot, the golden gun
I am your voice in the sliver
I am, I am, I am the one
I am your stand and deliver
I am your shot, the golden gun
I am your voice in the sliver
I am, I am, I am the one
5. Crystal Clear
Fingernails that pierce your tender flesh
And a silent scream of your new faith, profess
I am a piece of eternal satisfaction
I am the serpent wrapped around your feet
Deep inside your burning
Virgin ear
Oh, to stop the yearning, now
Crystal clear
Crystal clear
Blind and staked you to a belly crawl
And set to take, embrace your final fall
I am the guide to the new temptation, fallout
I am the breath of polluted air you breathe
Deep inside your burning
Virgin ear
Oh, to stop the yearning, now
Deep inside your learning,
Face your fear
Floating, moaning, turning
Crystal clear
Innocence has fallen
At the feet of the need
Lust has taken over,
Watch it feed
Blessed into temptation
In the beholder's eye
Offered on the altar,
On high
Are you here for the calling?
Are you here to abide?
Have you come for the falling,
Deep inside?
Deep inside your burning
Virgin ear
Oh, to stop the yearning, now
Deep inside your learning,
Face your fear
Floating, moaning, turning
Crystal clear
Crystal clear
Crystal
6. The Sound of Dying
Listen up, now
Got a fistful of reason
And a faceful of fear
That I wear with a frown
As the killer does bow
Time will allow
As I pass through the season
And it all comes clear that
The killer I see
Is the most I fear
Is the killer in me, yeah
Take me, where I gotta go
Show me, what I need to know
Where I gotta go
Here it comes now
The sound ya hear,
Crystal clear
Is the sound of fear
The sound of dying, dying
Right to a fault
Methodic perfection
There’s a road to the left
That I walk to see,
Does the killer know me?
Come into the vault
With a daily rejection
And on through the tears
That the killer I see
Is the most I fear
Is the killer in me, yeah
Take me, where I gotta go
Show me, what I need to know
Where I gotta go
Here it comes now
The sound ya hear,
Crystal clear
Is the sound of fear
The sound of dying, dying
Just for killing
Just to gotta move me
Just in time
Because, someone better kill me
Dumb and willing
Just enough to lose me
Killer come calling
On a misty night in Jersey
Ah-ah-ah
Will you let him in?
Will you be his friend?
Will you take him to the place
Where you want it to end?
Killer comes callin'
On a misty night in Jersey
Hear the sound of dying
Listen up, now
Got a fistful of reason
And a faceful of fear
That I wear with a frown
As the killer does bow
Time will allow
As I pass through the season
And it all comes clear that
The killer I see
Is the most I fear
Is the killer in me, yeah
Take me, where I gotta go
Show me, what I need to know
Where I gotta go
Here it comes now
The sound ya hear,
Crystal clear
Is the sound of fear
The sound of dying, dying
Listen up now
7. Until I Die
Dope, black suicide
Eyes that look right through me
Dead white, feeling fine
The eyes are in a hurry
Into the ensuing flood,
Look into never be
Swimming ‘round in a pool of blood
A pool, she bleeds for me, yeah
Time to realize the force inside me
Seem to paralyze, now go away
Broken, and burnin'
And running the lie
Breakin’ and burnin’ me
Until I die
Stone cold occupied
Thoughts that I thought I knew
When only you seem right
I seem to walk right through you
Face down in the comfort of
What you’ve given me
I have resolved myself
To what will never be
Walking next to me
The stark reality
Of what will never be
Time to realize the force inside me
Seem to paralyze, now go away
Broken, and burnin'
And running the lie
Breakin’ and burnin’ me
Until I die
If I had my way
I’d tear it down
Start anew, up from the ground, yeah
And dare I say
I want you near me
To live inside this world so cold
Another day
Another kill me
Another shot to be so bold, yeah
Dope, black suicide
And eyes that look right through you
Dead white, feeling fine
I could never hurt you
Time to realize the force inside me
Seem to paralyze, now go away
Broken, and burnin'
And running the lie
Breakin’ and burnin’ me
Until I...
Die
8. Struck Down
Leveled, hammered, gone today
God will have me his own way
Smokin’ gun is what I see
Do you know, am I free?
Face it, kill it
Beat it to the ground
Turn it, burn it
Gone without a sound
Struck down
Locked and tortured by the dream
Fight the demon to be clean
Wanton wounds are why I bleed
Do you know, can I see?
Face it, kill it
Beat them where they stand
Turn it, burn it
Fire through your hand
Turn them into nothing
Give them upside down
Cut the ties that bind you tight
Command them to the ground
Turn them into nothing
You stand, struck down
Hear me screaming up to heaven
Watch me fall to hell
Hear me, hear us
We are the gone
The horde rejected
See me, see us
We are the ones,
The ones protected
Turn them into nothing
Give them upside down
Cut the ties that bind you tight
Command them to the ground
Turn them into nothing
You stand, struck down
Ashes, ashes, dust to dust
God will have me, if he must
Demon crawl all over me
Did you know, I’m not me
Face it, kill it
Beat me where I stand
Turn it, burn it
Fire through my hand
I stand down
Struck down
Down
Struck down
9. Unholy
Gimme, gimme, gimme some candy baby
I got the crave, I got to fill
Lemme, lemme, lemme some money, maybe
I’m gonna buy everything you sell
Take it on down, take what you want, yeah
Pay me later, gotta place to be
Move it on in, take it on over
What’s that face, you know me
Here, but now it’s gone
Here to carry on
Nothing more to say
Your mind has gone away
Unholy, fill the moment out
Of your mind
The dam has spilled the secret out
Deaf, dumb and blind
Wanna, wanna give ya what you’re looking for
Make it all better like I did before, right
When you find, when you find that you got a choice
And the screams that you hear are your own voice
Turn it on up, turn it into stone
Love me later, gotta, gotta, gotta go
Move it on in, take it on home
Wipe that face, you don’t know
Here, but now it’s gone
Here to carry on
Nothing more to say
Your mind has gone away
Unholy, fill the moment out
Of your mind
The dam has spilled the secret out
Deaf, dumb and blind
Live your life
Live it through me
Leave your mind
Where it should be
Is the truth so hard to find?
Or is the truth out of your mind?
Here, but now it’s gone
Here to carry on
Nothing more to say
Your mind has gone away
Unholy fill the moment out
Of your mind
The dam has spilled the secret out
Deaf, dumb and blind
Unholy fill the moment out
Of your mind
The dam has spilled the secret out
Deaf, dumb and blind
10. I Rise
Voluntary action,
Leading to the scar upon the face
Planning the reaction, the color
The moment paint the place
In blood, in fire
Calling you back home to the demise
In black, desire
Calling you, witnessing the rise
God damn this light
Take it out
Let me see what you to hide
The parasite has his way
Until the day
I rise
In pure retribution,
Remorseful as the moment of his birth
In reconciliation,
He ponders a solution in the dirt
In blood, in fire
A blessing to the few, immortalize
In black, desire
A calling to the witness of the rise
God damn this light
Take it out
Let me see what you to hide
The parasite has his way
Until the day
I rise
Awaken, in time
God, self, liberty
Fire in my locked eternity
Soaring, climbing
Self, god, liberty
Broken by my
Drive to set it free
Fire in my freedom
Hatred in my heart
Long live the kingdom
As the king does fall apart
Back off the ceremony
Count all the flies
Fight through the maggots
To reach the underly
Push to infinity
Laughs replaced by cries
Push into liberty
Sanctify the rise
God damn this light
It’s in my eyes
God damn the will to kill me
God damn your pride
God damn this light
Take it out
Let me see what you to hide
The parasite has his way
Until the day
God damn this light
Take it out
Let me see what you to hide
The parasite has his way
Until the day
I rise
Rise...
