1. Necroshine
You can take me out of my hell, you can't take the hell on out of me
Watch me here as I get, but be careful what you see, oh yeah!
I cut across the waste, some live and some enshrined
I look into the light of the necroshine
Don't you worry 'bout me, you know I'm doin' fine
Basking in the light of the necroshine
In the name of all that's sacred, in the name of misery
Watch me here as I turn red and remember what you see, oh yeah!
I hunger for a taste to fill my glass with wine
Away from the right, into the necroshine
Don't you ever doubt me as you walk the line
Guided by the light of the necroshine
I think that I have been reborn just a little better than before
I think I tried to tell myself that I needed just a little more
They always tried to sell me, hang me what I couldn't use
Always tried to get a little better with an offer that I can't refuse
You can take me full of fire, you can take me as you find
Or you can leave me here where you gonna see me guided by the necroshine...
Don't you worry 'bout me, you know I'm doin' fine
Basking in the light of the necroshine
Don't you ever doubt me as you walk the line
Guided by the light, guided by the light of the necroshine
2. My December
When I look into your eyes it keeps me together
When I hear your private lies I don't feel any better
Clouds will gather over me, rain will soak me down
As I remember my December
Just to the left, upon what is left
On the left side of the dawn
Leaving the the traces, forgotten the faces
Of the last December morn
Nothing but the truth is all I wanted
Everything I had was always counted
Clouds will gather over me, lightening strike me down
As I remember my my December
Just to the left, upon what is left
On the left side of the dawn
Leaving the the traces, forgotten the faces
Of the last December morn
From the hand of god that squeeze me
To the firestorm that feeds me... in my December
In a world too much for the likes of man who can't remember
Clouds will gather over me, misery atraun
My December, my December
Just to the left, upon what is left
On the left side of the dawn
Leaving the the traces, forgotten the faces
Of the last December morn
From the hand of god that squeeze me
To the firestorm that feeds me... in my December
In a world too much for the likes of man who can't remember
3. Let Us Prey
It took three damn days for the mission man
Heard he's comin' straight from hell
With a fast track bleedein' and siren screamin'
If you don't listen you could never tell
Three days dead and risin'
Where you goin' now? I wish you well
Three days dead and risin'
With a half head full of dreams I could never sell
Oh, let us prey...
Three days gone for the misson man
Three days gone and risin'
Three days gone, hear the mission man say
Time to get down to business
-- Let us prey!
He walked in like the duke, he was the mission man
He had death leakin' from his eyes
Machine gun bigger with his linger of the trigger
Said it took me three days to rise
Three days dead and risin'
I think these here are yours; I couldn't tell
Three days dead and risin'
Then he handed on back the dreams that he couldn't sell
Oh, let us prey...
Three days gone for the misson man
Three days gone and risin'
Three days gone, hear the mission man say:
"Time to get down to business"
-- Let us prey!
Lord, I got a bleeder, it's a fast jet feeder
And it nailed me down tight for the rest of my life
It's a double damn shot-o, a'what I need when I want it
And it's givin' me redemption through the darkest of night
Lord, I lost the lightenin', it was so damn frightenin'
And it pulled me up close like I was losin my life
Was a double damn shot, knocked me down; yeah, I got it
And it givin' me some light through the rest of my life
Three days dead and risin'
I think these here are yours; I couldn't tell
Three days dead and risin'
Then he handed on back the dreams that he couldn't sell
Oh, let us prey...
Three days gone for the misson man
Three days gone and risin'.!.
4. 80 Cycles
I'm just a little nervous, just a little back-off who you know
I don't think they deserve us as they sit back, back-off, here we go
I don't care if you love me, I don't care it's about just who you blow
I don't have all the answers, I just want to know-
How low can you go? How low can you go?
It's just alot of crosstalk, I don't think they listen anyway
I got hit in the crosswalk; best be careful, back up what you say
I know you don't love me, but I know just exactly what you show
I don't want all the answers, I just want to know-
How low can you go? How low can you go?
Eighty cycles hummin' like a big twin comin'
Eighty cycles comin', I know
How low can you go? Slow...
Listen! Bottom out, discount
80 cycles goin' south, goin' wherever I go
Kick start, motormount, 80 cycles in your mouth
80 cycles comin' I know
Go to! Live free, got gas
80 cycles in your ass, lower that I wanna go
Die free, sacrifice, 80 cycles pay the price
80 cycles comin' I know
Once more! Your move, buckshot
80 cycles slingshot, one thing I wanna know
Bad move, dog food, 80 cycles too rude
How low, how low, how low can you go.?.
80 cycles runnin' like a big train comin'
80 cycles runnin', I know
How low can you go.?.
5. Revelation
Got a better night, got a better for somebody kill me
Got a better tight; for me it seem better that I ever had known before
How do you see with blindness all around you? How do you understand?
And when you see the enemy surround you, when do you show hand?
Got to leave it alone
Call me a nation
Got to leave it at home
Call me a brand new revelation, a new revelation!
I am a homicide, just a shadow waiting for a casket
I am preoccupied; you know I think someone want to kill me
How can you bleed with vultures all aroound you? How can you give them hope?
How can you sleep with murderers inside you? I could never cope
Got to leave it alone
Call me a nation
Got to leave it at home
Call me a brand new-
I feel your cold hand lying over me
I feel the underside, your generosity
And I hear the angels singing; do they sing for me?
I feel your cold hand, I feel your cold hand...
How can you sleep at night.?.
How can you bleed with vultures all around you? How do you understand?
How can you sleep with murderers inside you? When do you show your hand?
Got to leave it alone
Call me a nation
Got to leave it at home
Call me a brand new-
Got to leave it alone
Call me a nation
Got to leave it at home
Call me a brand new revelation, brand new revelation.!.
6. Stone Cold Jesus
Bought a one-way ticket to the resurrection
~Got devil gone down on me~
It's a non-stop, no meal, no connoction
~Devil, devil all over me~
Here, baby, here, baby, plant one on your daddy's cheek
~Got devil all over me~
I'll be gone for a minute but no more that a week
~Devil, devil all over me~
Gone through livin' just for dyin', hear what I say:
Tacked to a six by nine to please us
Look like you're what you want
You're a stone cold Jesus, a stone cold Jesus
There's a movement to, yeah, thare's an inclenation
~Got devil gone down on me~
With a one-man, two-bit congregation
~Devil, devil all over me~
Here, baby, there, baby, hammer down on the weak
~Got devil all over me~
With eternty gone you will inherit the meek, yeah
~Devil, devil all over me~
Gone through livin' just for dyin'
Gone through laughin', gone through cryin', hear what I say:
Tacked to a six by nine to please us
Look like you're what you want
You're a stone cold Jesus, a stone cold Jesus
You know I seem to lost my way, seem to happen everyday
Not sure where I'm goin' or where I been
You know it seems to cover me with full-blow mediocrity
Not sure where I'm goin' or where I sinned
In quiet desperation claw on my soul I feel them gnaw
Without hesitation render me
Unconscious in too much too soon, I long for days inside the womb
Without hesitation comfort me
I wait for salvation come, you know it keep me on the run
And put me in this place and keep me here
I know I got my cross to bear, I keep it with me everywhere
Keeps me in the race that keep me here
Got a stone cold Jesus...
Tacked to a six by nine to please us
Look like you're what you want
You're a stone cold Jesus, stone cold Jesus...
7. Forked Tongue Kiss
Long view on the eye a pocketful a pestilence
Got a fistful of momories, a long lost innocence
Hey baby, dead baby, devil he embracin' you
With a long forked-tongue-kiss suckin' all the life from you
If you need to reach me I'm broaking one through ten
And if you really need me can I get an amen?... ~Amen!~
Passion on a (???) gotta get it while it's not
With a self-centered psychopath givin'a lorget-me-not
Rape me, rape me - evrybody gets in line
With a long forked-tongue-kiss sucked away the rest of time
If you need to reach me I'm broaking one through ten
And if you really need me can I get an amen?... ~Amen!~
Longview in your eye: seal it with a kiss, you get the-
~Long forked tongue kiss!~
Memory in your fist seeking for your kiss-
~Long forked tongue kiss!~
Lay on down in the bad you made
It's a little too late to cry or to be afraid
Driven by the high heat, call it love
Driven by the high heat of the velvet glove
Call it free-will, call it choice
You know you ain't alone now
There's a second voice... when you're not alone!
Longview in your eye: seal it with a kiss, you get the-
~Long forked tongue kiss!~
Memory in your fist seeking for your kiss-
~Long forked tongue kiss!~
Short view on the eye, a pocketful a' pestilence
With a fistful a' memories, a long lost innocence
B-b-b-baby, devil - he embracin' you
With a long-forked-tongue-kiss suckin' all the life from you
If you need to reach me I'm broaking one through ten
And if you really need me, can I get an amen?... ~Amen!~
If you need to reach me I'm broaking one through ten
And if you really need me, can I get an amen?... ~Amen!~
Longview in your eye: seal it with a kiss, you get the-
~Long forked tongue kiss!~
Memory in your fist seeking for your kiss-
~Long forked tongue kiss!~
8. I Am Fear
You point that little finger out
You got four pointing back at you
It goes everywhere you go, do evrything you do
He got roughed up on the inside
He screaming that this ain't fair
And in a block?? moment alone on the outside
Thought that no one cared, all right!
~You want me! You need me! You have me!~
-- I'm yours!
So he puts in a call to his only friend
He dials 1-800-FEAR
Then he hid his face inside his hands
You know he wasn't very clear
Said I'm roughed up on the inside
You know that this ain't lair
And in a New York Minute he felt like a million
'Cause he knew somebody cared and said:
"I have but anation in me for everyone to see
I am but a tribute to mediocrity
I'm your mother, father, brother, son
I'm a little bit of everyone
Hide in the shadow, cast by the sun
In constant misery - I'm fear!"
~You want me! You need me! You have me!~
-- I'm yours!
Yes, I know you've always loved me
~Call me now, between the tears!~
I know you put no one above me
~Call me now, between the tears!~
-- I'm fear!
Call me now, uncover me
Watch me work, it's what I do
Call me now, uncover me
Watch me work and watch what I undo.!.
So he broke up all his fingers white pulling out his fair
And he's broken into a million pieces; no, nobody cared
He was beat-up on the inside, fighting to survive
Spent a long time dyin'; no, not for tryin'
When you want to feel alive
Seem like total chaos everywhere you turn
Seem like you like it everytime you burn
When you're wiped out on the inside you can't catch your breath
And in a black out moment alone on the outside
Beat him right to dead, all right!
~You want me! You need me! You have me!~
-- I'm yours!
Yes, I know you've always loved me
~Call me now, between the tears!~
I know you put no one above me
~Call me now, between the tears!~
-- I'm fear!
9. Black Line
What was done is licking me with fire
Do with me, do what you will
I'm cold and sick, I'm cold and sick and tired
Yeah, I've had enogh, I've had my kill
And dare I say that I'm walking on today
With no direction ever had
Please forget me, leave me to what will
I'll be with you again at the end of the line
We all walk in a long black line
We all walk in time
We all walk in the black sunshine
We don't know who we are
What is done still licking me with fire
Do with me, do what you will
I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired
Yeah, I've had enough, I've had my kill
And dare I say that I'm missing you today
With no direction ever had
I can't forget you or leave you to what will
I'll see you once again at end of the line
We all walk in a long black line
We all walk in time
We all walk in the black sunshine
We don't know who we are
10. Dead Man
Seems like a dead man stickin' to you
And it seems like his last thoughts are stuck to your shoe
~Seems like a dead man~ stickin' to you
~Seems like a dead man~ stuck to your shoe
~Seems like a dead man~ stickin' to you, yeah
~Seems like a dead man~ stickin' to you!
D-d-d-dead man hold me near with all that you hold dear
I can shut my eyes down tight and make you disappear
-- Then I fall down...
Well, it seems like tomorrow is yesterdays news, yeah
And it seems like you can't win, can't win for losing
~Seems like a dead man~ stickin' to you
~Seems like tomorrow~ is yesterdays news
~Seems like a dead man~ stickin' to you
~Seems like a dead man~ stickin' to you!
D-d-d-dead man, what got you here? A little wrinkled little smeared
I can shut my eyes down tight and make you disappear
-- Then I fall down...
My eyes hang from their sockets, I wear a ball and chain
Can you hear the rockets exploding in my brain?
-- They go...
I feel the insecurity, I feel the sting of pain
The upside of insanity; I side with the insane
-- They go...
They come across the black and white, they ravage me with fear
I can close my eyes down tight and make them disappear
You know, I feel like a dead man, ~dead man...~
D-d-d-dead man what got you here? A little wrinkled little smeared
I can shut my eyes down tight and make you disappear
-- Then I fall down...
