1. End Of The Rainbow

Why am I not feeling right, in this modern world
All I want is to find the light, I wanna know
What's in store for me
And by the light I find, another piece of mind

My end of the rainbow
My end of the rainbow I can't find
'Cause I don't wanna live in a world
Where all of the people are after my mind
It's the same every time
My end of the rainbow
Is merely something I just can't find
I just can't find

Is it real or fantasy, will my dreams come to pass
Will I fly to the mountain to find the gold and the
magic it cast
Let me see, what's in front of me

My end of the rainbow
My end of the rainbow I can't find
'Cause I don't wanna live in a world
Where all of the people are after my mind
It's the same every time
My end of the rainbow
Is merely something I just can't find
I just can't find

Burning eyes can touch the sky, fly away with me
Open up and don't be blind, let your soul run free
There's not a pot of gold, it's an endless road

My end of the rainbow
My end of the rainbow I can't find
'Cause I don't wanna live in a world
Where all of the people are after my mind
It's the same every time
My end of the rainbow
Is merely something I just can't find
I just can't find




2. Sun Song

Lay me down, put my body to rest
Not my death
Join me with Mother Earth and Father Sky
Hear my grandfathers sing a deathless song
Tell me what went wrong
Was their freedom taken away
And the Great Spirit was forced to pay

Lay them down, put their bodies to rest
An honored death, peaceful rest
Lay them down with some dignity
I said let them rest, let them rest
The lies have all been told
The myths they've made have all been told
What about their will to fight
Was it lost in the deepest, darkest night

Oh the Great Plains call to me with an endless sigh
Can you tell me why
To touch an enemy with a war coup
Was a dream of mine
Can you tell me why, why it had to die

Stand me up give my body the strength
To tell the tale, how the humans failed
Let me dream on of the sun's song and the endless
plain, the endless pain
Hear my Grandfathers sing a restless song
Tell me what went wrong
Was their freedom taken away
And the Great Spirit was forced to pay




3. Angels Of Doubt

Even as they told you
They were angels of doubt
You'll have some misgivings for the banners that they tout
For pretty answers and snow white skin
Tend to lead astray
A bourgeois lying bitch can still lure you to hay

And you'll eat it up
Play the fool for all to see
And drink from their cup
Dirty though their cup might be

When it all looks steady
They tell you about your best friends in bed
Ain't a reason to question boy
'Cause what's to say has been said
If you've got an angel, you better be fast
Yeah you better be quick
Before you know it boy
She's off to find another salt lick

And you'll lick it up
All the wounds that need to heal
And drink from their cup
Dirty though that cup just might be

And you'll eat it up
Play the fool for all to see
And you'll cover up
All the dirty laundry
There just might be




4. One Way Street

I wish our love was a two-way street
But it goes one way, and you're in the driver's seat
I break my back just to make you mine
Where the hell should I draw the line
Why do I always end up sad
Did something I say go and make you mad
Love me or leave me but never leave me alone
I swear to God you should be sitting on a throne

Loving you down a one-way street
I don't think that I can take the heat
Loving you down a one-way street
Going down, get around
You knock me off my feet

I said it before and i'll say it again
I don't think that it should ever end
I want to know if it stays like this
I don't think that I can take this shit, no
Shoot straight
Into my eyes
I read between every single line
Now may I speak because I feel no shyness
I hit the floor and bow down to your highness

Loving you down a one-way street
I don't think that I can take the heat
Loving you down a one-way street
Going down, get around
You knock me off my feet

Don't think this is all I have to say
I get tougher with every day
Just come on to me now and see what you've done
Don't blame nothing on me
'Cause baby I ain't the one
I must insist we take our time
We move too fast, I'll lose my mind
Love me or leave but leave me alone
I swear to God you should be sitting on a throne

Loving you down a one-way street
I don't think that I can take the heat
Loving you down a one-way street
Going down, get around
You knock me off my feet

Loving you down
Loving you down
Loving you down
Going down, get around
You knock me off my feet




5. Curse Of The Night

Suffer me
A windblown vagabond
Shelter me
A former shadow of myself
Relinquish me
Break the bonds that hold me down
Vanquish me
But save the spirit I have found

The wings of the dawn enfold me
I'll not be a pawn of the night
Bacchus put his mark upon me
God how I wish to taste your light

Look and see
A brighter star shines on my brow
Trust in me
And let your heart sing with the sun
Stay with me
I'll show you worlds you've never seen
Love with me
And trust the wings you have to fly
The hounds of the evening hunt me
I'll not go with a silent prayer
I hate how they fall upon me
As though I found their wicked lair

Curse of the night
I'll never give unto this realm
Scourge of the light
I'll master stars and ride at their helm

The hounds of the evening hunt me
I'll not go with a silent prayer
I hate how they fall upon me
As though I found their wicked lair

Curse of the night
I'll not give unto this realm
Scourge of the light
I'll master stars, gonna ride at their helm
Curse of the night
We'll not give unto this realm
Children of light
We'll master stars and ride at their helm




6. J.T. Ripper

Through the darkness shines a ray
Reflections from a deadly blade, oh a deadly blade
Killer on the loose tonight
Sharpened steel is poised to bite, yes it's poised to bite

Men took heed as women despaired
They walked the streets
Only if they dared
While the sun was in the sky
The lady shoppers hurried by, oh they hurried on by
In the night his blade ran free
No one there and no one sees, no there's no one left

Men took heed as women despaired
They walked the streets only if they dared
Death ran free for J.T. Ripper

He sees a lady of the light
Her shadow thrown from the corner light, oh from the corner light
As he approaches she turns to smile
Never knowing all the while
Tell me how she could know

Men took heed as women despaired
They walked the streets only if they dared
Death ran free for J.T. Ripper




7. You're Gonna Get It

You're all alone in the dark
Drinking blood on the rocks
Your vital signs are coming through
So play it safe, don't you leave a trace
Or they'll be coming after you

You're gonna get it
You don't want it
You're gonna get it now
You're gonna get it
You don't want it
So get the hell out of town
Keep quiet don't you make a sound
While the hangman from the gallows search of you in this town
If you're gonna run, make your getaway
And don't stop running til another day

If they catch you yeah, they're gonna make you pay
And you won't live to see another day
First they'll hang you for a sacrifice
Then they'll burn your bones in a blazing fire

You're gonna get it
You don't want it
You're gonna get it now
You're gonna get it
You don't want it
Those dogs'll drag you down




8. Bad One

You've got to learn, you've got to live
You've got to take, you've got to give
You've got to burn, you're burning now
You're taking your life to the end somehow

And when you see the light in the sky
You've got to know the truth before you die
You'll become the blind and then you'll see the end of time
It's all in your mind

Knowing all along it was tearing you apart in your mind
You waited too damn long, now you know it's time to start
You're tearing your world apart

Unleash the pain, unleash it all
Taking my life's blood, don't take my soul
Visions of darkness, but I see light
I walk through fire, burning down the night

And when you see the pain in your eyes
You've got to feel the heat before you fly
C'mon spread those wings and hit the sky

Knowing all along it was tearing you apart in your mind
You waited too damn long, now you know it's time to start
You're tearing your world apart

You've been on this road so long
Sometimes I think you've seen it all
You've seen the angel, you've seen the beast
You don't know which way to turn
You're the bad one
Your way is the way to hell

So now you've learned, and now you've lived
You learned to take, you learned to give
And now you'll burn, you're burning now
You're taking your life to an end somehow

And when you see the light in the sky
You've got to know the truth before you die
You'll become blind and then you'll see the end of time
It's all in your mind




9. Klassic Romance




10. Wings Of Hell

The wings of hell are upon you
You know you're going there
You're very nervous, you're very scared
And once you get there, you'd better beware
You try to fight the beast
But you know you won't win
You've been bad, committing sin
You're gonna go where you've never been
And once you get there
You'll never return again

You know in twenty-four hours
Another day will be gone and tomorrow
You'll find out why you came this way
You know that nothing else matters
Your hopes are all gone and your dreams have been shattered
Your blue sky slowly turns to grey

The people down here all are strange
They're the walking dead, the weird, the insane
Everyone down here made the deal
They're all crazy, they're mentally ill
The people down here don't know what they've done
But don't let them see you 'cause there's nowhere to run
It's like you're trapped inside of a maze
There's no way out, it makes you crazy

You know in twenty-four hours
Another day will be gone and tomorrow
You'll find out why you came this way
You know that nothing else matters
Your hopes are all gone and your dreams have been shattered
Your blue sky slowly turns to grey

Point of no return
Bodies start to burn
Feel the heat get higher
Throw you in the fire
Burn

No angels coming for you
Hear the final call
He's calling you to join him
Don't you listen

You know in twenty-four hours
Another day will be gone and tomorrow
You'll find out why you came this way
You know that nothing else matters
Your hopes are all gone and your dreams have been shattered
Your blue sky slowly turns to grey




11. Blast Off

I roll right through the atmosphere
I'll take you to the eternal reward
Stop nowhere to look back again
We follow our hearts and live by the sword

And if you still don't like the way we do things
Then learn to rock and roll

And now take hold of the stratosphere
Blast off - fuckin' space galore
Pass the planets, pass the sun
Leave 'em all, we're second to none

And if you still don't like the way we do things
Then learn to rock and roll




12. Ancient Future
