1. Sleepy Hollow 2. Liquorbreath 3. Calamity (Wishes and Wants) 4. Separation
1. Sleepy Hollow
Late night in the town
Darkness all around
Bloody sword they devour
As he slays the townsfolk by the hour
None left but a spirit
Too dead to even walk
Beware the man in black
It’s you he’s out to stalk
Keep your eyes on the trees
For he lurks within the woods
There’s no stopping this madman killer
Even if you could
It’s time for fear
It’s time for fright
It’s time for you to die tonight
Nothing more to see here
Just a blood soaking blade
Asking for a quick death
Will do you no good` `
He’ll slay you either way
And laugh at your blood
Dripping down his fingers
Your last dying sob
Nothing more anyone can do
Your gone
And if you want to be saved
Then let it be known
You must die first
Before you enter the heavenly throne
It’s time for fear
It’s time for fright
It’s time for you to die tonight
Nothing more to see here
Just a blood soaking blade
Your screams fill the midnight air
Everyone hears but no one cares
Say your last prayers, it’s your only chance
Say goodbye to your soul
Sleepy hollow
2. Liquorbreath
Drink all night
Sleep all day
Nothing else gets in the way
The booze just beckons while I stare
Pick up the bottle if you dare
It’s a game of give and take
I give you my mind and you take it away
I find myself in a deep depression
The liquor keeps my mind in heavy compression
I can’t see straight
Liquorbreath
Racks and racks of mind distortion
Builds a wall between real and illusion
Beware the effect
Of the liquid demon
He pours by the night
And causes delirium
Can’t see straight
The sky is gray
Even though it’s a sunny day
I got my fix now I’m heading back
I wish I could think on the right track
I can’t think straight
Liquorbreath
My spirit’s low
But my mind is high
In my world this is how I get by
The body is where the booze flows
Waste it away and then let it go
I can’t live straight
Liquorbreath
3. Calamity (Wishes and Wants)
He sees himself inside the door
He sees himself asking for more
Jumping in the wishing well
Jumping into pit of hell
Finds himself on the other side
Finds himself drowning in the tide
And in the darkness
Crown of death beckons him
All spirits spent
Wishes and wants
Are the pleads of the low
The rich and the wealthy
All hate to bestow
The snobs of the present
And the words of the past
They all kill us now
The end at last (It’s what they want)
Upon finding the golden key
He seeks the love of reality
He falls in worship with evil will
Nothing stops him from the kill
All this came from stuck-up desires
Throw your body in the fire
Scenario of the winded man
Hold the fire in your hand
You get pulled
See, feel, think, live
See, live, die
I live, I want, I need
Calamity (Wishes and Wants)
4. Separation
Miles away
All I can think about is you
Time goes by
I see your reflection in the sky
When I look into the hollowness of my heart
All I see is myself grim and dark
For you I die
For you I cry
For you I turn back the clock and try
To live alive
Live and thrive
In harmony with you
I hear your voice
So soothing now
I want to be near you
But I don’t know how
So far away
There isn’t a day that goes by
When you’re not on my mind
I treasure every second I spend with you
When you kiss me so passionately
I know our love is true
We dance in heaven
As I stroke your soft hair
Don’t let me go
I’m in your care
For you I die
For you I cry
For you I turn back the clock and try
To live alive
Live and thrive
In harmony with you
You’re on my mind all the time
You keep my soul alive
And through it all we shall stand tall
