Little Black Horse
03:17

On the open road
Gotta’ do what I do
Always too far
I’m away from you
Sit by the fire
And warm my bones
No more fighting
Dragged down by stone
Little black horse
And big bright moon
Riding real slow
But coming home soon
Open the clutch
And pull the reins
Little black horse
Without a name
Galloping on
Gripping the wheel
Homeward bound
Carried by steel
The road is long
But the ride is smooth
Town to town
Ever passing through
No matter how far
No matter what I do
Always a slow ride
Coming back to you
Little black horse
And big bright moon
Riding real slow
But coming home soon
Open the clutch
And pull the reins
Little black horse
Without a name
Galloping on
Gripping the wheel
Homeward bound
Carried by steel

Dollar $ign
03:06

Your dollar sign delusions
All the lies you buy
Money won’t buy you happiness
That’s how you waste your time
Spend your life in chains for checks
And still you pay and pay
In the night thieves come for you
And steal it all away
It takes what it can get
There’s more to life than this
You’re bought and then you’re sold
Now you’re in Mammon’s hold
Dollar signs are in your eyes
Is nothing in your head?
Don’t know what your counting on
Can’t spend it when you’re dead
Dollar signs are in your eyes
Like cattle born and bred
Work my friend ‘til your last breath
Can’t spend it when you’re dead
Your coins they have no passion
They ring a hollow sound
Count them up, place your bets
And pass the buck around
Gotta’ have it, never keep it
Your pocket burns a hole
Weekend, week out warrior
The paycheck takes control
It takes what it can get
There’s more to life than this
You’re bought and then you’re sold
Now you’re in Mammon’s hold
Dollar signs are in your eyes
Is nothing in your head?
Don’t know what your counting on
Can’t spend it when you’re dead
Dollar signs are in your eyes
Like cattle born and bred
Work my friend ‘til your last breath
Can’t spend it when you’re dead

Wrong End (Of the Gun)
03:31
|
|||
Born into innocence
crawl, walk, and run
Happy child becomes
Powered by the sun
You have the answer
You made a plan
I bet your feeling more like a man
You see their faces
On down the halls
Turning their heads
You’ll show them all
You feel secure
From the steel in your hand
Protection or carnage
In your homeland
Off to school you go
Pray you never grow
You can try hide
You can try to run
Looking right at the wrong end of the gun
This is the moment
Will you turn away?
Your last chance
To meet your fate
You hear the crack
You feel the growl
And listen to the silence so loud
Strength is weakness
Passion is pain
So much is lost
But the hurt remains
You look down
See the blood on your hands
For what purpose?
What have you gained?
Off to school you go
Pray you never grow
You can try hide
You can try to run
Looking right at the wrong end of the gun

Then It's Nevermore

She gives you kisses and hugs
And everything’s so nice
Then she takes your heart
And puts the thing on ice
You went and fell in love
You thought you were so sure
That it would last forever
Now it’s nevermore
Is this the price of love?
This and nothing more?
What we found was lost
You know it’s nevermore
When you’ve given it all
Body, mind and heart
And time passes by
We lie in world’s apart
You went and fell in love
You thought you were so sure
That it would last forever
Now it’s nevermore
Is this the price of love?
This and nothing more?
What we found was lost
You know it’s nevermore
What is left of us?
A shadow on the floor
A broken memory
You know it’s nevermore

Fun Ride
02:47
|

Better get out of my way
Don’t need you in my face
I’m gonna cut to the chase
I don’t really care what you have to say
You say I drive the wrong car
Well I’m too drunk to drive
You say I’m living too fast
I do what I do to feel alive
I don’t care what they say
Just get out of my way
You try to classy me?
This is what it looks like when your mind is set free
Stuck on what others feel?
That’s your Achilles Heel
I can guarantee
This is what it looks like when your mind is set free
You say I got the wrong clothes
Well I don’t really care
You say I look so strange
All because of how I wear my hair
That might have mattered to me
If I had cared what you thought
You try to put me down
At least I know that I cannot be bought
I don’t care what they say
Just get out of my way
You try to classy me?
This is what it looks like when your mind is set free
Stuck on what others feel?
That’s your Achilles Heel
I can guarantee
This is what it looks like when your mind is set free

Signal Fire
03:41
|
|||
I have sailed across these distant seas, oh
I left my home behind
I have walked across an ancient beach
To time that’s out of mind
All of my dreams
All that I seek
Look for the light on the mountaintop
I know I must find
So I will climb
Look for the light on the mountaintop
There is a light that burns inside
Brighter than the flame I hold tonight
I have journeyed long and far
Now I wait for my lovers arms
I have climbed to the highest peak, the
Torch is in my hand
I will light the signal fire, and
Find the love I seek
All of my dreams
All that I seek
Look for the light on the mountaintop
I know I must find
So I will climb
Look for the light on the mountaintop
Oh, so come and find me
I know I must find
So I will climb
Look for the light on the mountaintop

Almighty
03:45
|

Avert your eyes, pretend that you don't see
Don't ask why, follow me blind
There's a reason for all the hate you see
Trust in me...
Trust in me...
This is all a part of my master plan
Isn't that enough to take comfort in?
All I ask is that you NOT live your life in sin
This is all you need to understand
And I will save your soul
If you do what you're told
My kingdom come, and my will be done
When you're in need, ask and you shall receive
Only to me you must submit
No need to ever question what you believe
When they call you a hypocrite
Death and disease, how can I appease?
I work in mysterious ways
No room for doubt, this is what I'm about
Commit to me and I will not forsake
And I will save your soul
If you do what you're told
My kingdom come, and my will be done

Nothing So True
04:56
|
|||
Ash to ash
Bury the dead
Traveling through space
With a clock in my head
Futures uncertain
What will I do
Nothing but Love
Nothing so true
Dust to dust
We all gather round
Sun in the center
Follow the sound
Past can’t be changed
Can only be viewed
Nothing but hate
Nothing so true
Out of the deep
And into my mind
Into the recess
Of my design
Possessed by sight
something to prove
Nothing so true
As my love for you
There’s no freedom
Nothing to do
There’s no escape
Nothing so true
Earth to Earth
Woman to man
Falling through time
With a glass full of sand
The journey continues
Looking for you
Nothing but love
Nothing so true
Hush now hush
We’ve all tumbled down
I reached the peak
And stolen the crown
The ending’s at hand
I’ve broken through
Nothing but hate
Nothing so true
Ash to ash
And dust to dust
Earth to earth
Hush now hush
Out of the black
And into the blue
Nothing but hate
Nothing so true
Out of the deep
And into my mind
Into the recess
Of my design
Possessed by sight
something to prove
Nothing so true
As my love for you

Know My Name
04:09
|
|||
In my dreams I can hear you scream
And see the blood on your hands
Convinced by lies, I have no alibis
Trying to meet false demands
What have we done to our hearts and brains
Years in the dark just numbing the pain
I’ve asked the questions everyone’s to blame
You, me and them we are all the same
Know my name, Know my name
The only way when we’re all to blame
In the mirror I see your face
And see the past in your eyes
See the children out there in the world
no one to answer their cries
What have we done with the air we breathe
This is our home only one way to leave
I’ve read the bones and seen the signs
Message is clear these are dangerous times
Know my name, Know my name
The only way when we’re all to blame

March of the Mad Lancers
03:53
|
|||
What has been given
What they take away
Who will survive
The battle today?
And we ride, yes we ride
You can run
But cannot hide
And we ride, yes we ride
To fight for power
And die with pride
Ride lancers ride
Through fields of death
Against the tide
Yes we ride
It doesn’t matter to us
To defend or invade
With their blood on our hands
Our debts will be paid
And we ride, yes we ride
You can run
But cannot hide
And we ride, yes we ride
To fight for power
And die with pride
Ride lancers ride
Through fields of death
Against the tide
Yes we ride
Break their lances
Break their bones
Break their spirit
Against the stones
Ride lancers ride
Through fields of death
Against the tide
Yes we ride
