5. Let It Burn

Here-here, got the lock-down cover me
Fear-fear, got the in to let it out
So near, feel its breath all over me
Everything is inside, nothing going out
I hear you, I see you, I put you out
I hate you, I love you, I burn you down
Got the need, right here to let it out
Got the need, light the match and let it burn
[CH]
Listen here to the fire, as it burns up your back
Take your heart, gonna let it burn listen here to the fire
You're sure lookin' tired with a knife in your back
Through your heart, man that's gotta burn, listen here to the fire
Unclear where to start and where to end
I know what the need is all about
So near I can feel it eating me
Everything upside, upside down
I smell you, I taste you, what you're about
I loath you, I adore you to the ground
Got the need right here to let it out
Got the need, light the match and let it burn
[CH]


I don't seek the answers to the questions that I learn
I don't start the fires I lay back and watch them burn
I see ashes floating transformed the way they used to be
I see ashes floating down they come to cover me

6. I, Hurricane

Mind's eye hurricane
It feels nothin' like I'm missin' you
Self-inflicted pain, has turned me upside down
In the drenchin' bloody rain
I know nothin' I'm supposed to do
So I think I'll entertain thoughts of the underground
All I possess has becomes laid to rest
And the things that I love don't make a sound
All I hope is slain
Ain't nothin' more I'm gonna lose
Everything obtained is buried in the ground
As I'm goin' down the drain
I finally know it's me I screwed
So I think I'll entertain thoughts of what I found
All I possess has become laid to rest
And the things that I love don't make a sound
[CH]
I got the feelin getting high
I'm getting higher gonna fly
Now I'm kneelin way too high
Still getting' higher you gonna die
All night dreamin' hear the screamin'
Tear it up, run and hide
Inside burnin', the wind is turnin'
When it blows, you gonna die

7. Left Hand Man

Seems they got a runaround, a runaround where they stand
All over, yeah, all over you
Think they got an underground, an underground where they plan
Right under, yeah, right under you
Think you get the left hand
Backhand slap, then you're going to do your living on the downside
[CH]
God can't hear when I call
And God can't know, just when I fall
God can't see where I stand
So God can't be my left hand man
All I have is hatred when the fire fills my eye
Right under, yeah, right under me
And all I have is fate when the numbers fill the sky
Right over, yeah, right over me
Think I'll use the left hand
[CH]


Am I spent, layed-out got no more to see
With a locked down, tight clamp all over me
No love, just like before, am I one more, no more
Have I crashed, crashed and burned
Have I cashed in, not to return
Have I taken, taken my last ride
Do you feel what I feel inside
Over, over and done
Well I found something that I can't outrun
Watching, waiting, open the door
Am I one more, no more

8. Blown Away

When it extends itself to the point of breaking
And deep inside you know your demon's waking
Blow it away
In color red and redder break tomorrow
As mother turns her back in broken sorrow
Blow it away
When you are all that's left
[CH]
Embrace your enemies, embrace your fear
Embrace what you disobey
Kill what complicates you, hold it near
Blow it away


Complicated, overrated leaning on the reason of one
In quiet desperation you are clinging to the safety of the gun
In light the dark becomes illuminated fear
In white the black becomes what you are holding near
And deep inside your guts are turning
Churning to the tune, what you've become
[CH]

9. My Name Is Pain

No livin', no livin' without me
No higher, no higher than love, I'm gonna love you
Right here where you stand
I'll be inside you, all about you, everywhere you go
Everywhere you go
Make you feel like you are livin', what you need to know
Let me introduce myself, you're gonna know me well
[CH]
There is no shame, to know my name
My name is pain, my name is pain
There is no blame, you know my name
My name is pain, my name is pain
All givin', all takin' what I need
For better, for better or worse, I'm gonna kill you
Right here where you stand
I'm wrapped around you, gonna pound you
Welcome to my show Make you think it's all unfair, here's what you need to
know
Let me introduce myself, you're gonna know me well
[CH]
When I take aim, you know my name
My name is pain, my name is pain
I am the flame, you know my name
My name is pain, my name is pain

10. Can't Kill A Dead Man

Run like hell, yeah movin' fast
Don't fail me now know you gotta last
Move it on up to the quick step, go
And I get more speed when, when I get real low
Yeah runnin'
Can't kill a dead man, let your secrets fly
Yeah Runnin'
Can't kill a dead man, move it on up
As fire fills the sky
[CH]
Can't kill a dead man
Gotta, gotta get just a little more
Got the wake-up call head hit the floor
See there ain't nothin' more that I can lose
So I get real slow when I have to choose
Yeah runnin'
Can't kill a dead man, let your secrets fly
Yeah runnin'
Can't kill a dead man, move it on up
As fire fills the sky
[CH]


I'm leavin', I'm stayin', I'm broken down
For grievin', conveyin' I am renowned
In all my dreams I know I can
In all my dreams I am a dead man
I'm leavin', I'm stayin', I'm broken down
I'm leavin'

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 the you're throat
To tear it out
Find out what the beating's all about

[Chorus]
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
And reach into your heart
To pull it out
Find out what the beating's all about

[Chorus]

Run your devil up the pole
Into my domain
The forgotten drool, like rabid dogs
By any other nmae
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 another name
Devil, by the tail
Run your devil, take control
Before we go insane
Devil, devil

Hey mr. Lucifer, do you have my pay
I'm done with wroking 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, 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 all your excite
And 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

[Chorus]
Damned, for if I love me
Damned, for if I care
Damned, for all the make you 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 you 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

[Chorus]

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 screamin', I don't care

Took a little time before you tried to fuck me
Made a little spot for you 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

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]
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

Hard rubber and a wind-blown face
Got a full-blown eight-eight
To get us home
No trouble got an extra ace
A stand-up, throw-up
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
And 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
