BLACK ASHES - lyrics

BLACK ASHES


You had it all then you dropped the ball that lit the wicks

Just took a call, to break your fall and blow the dynamite sticks



Before you burn

When you gonna learn

Before you burn your drums too black ashes

Before you burn

When you gonna learn

Before you burn your drums too black ashes



You played retaliate and it didn't mean shit six bullets 

Were loaded in the toy

Far cry from a try

Head snapped again little drummer boy



Before you burn

When you gonna learn

Before you burn your drums too black ashes

Before you burn

When you gonna learn

Before you burn your drums too black ashes



1 Guitar Solo



You go ahead and try to fool them all with all your tricks

But I think you will pull a broody drive around your bridge

It's missing bricks



Before you burn

When you gonna learn

Before you burn your drums too black ashes

Before you burn

When you gonna learn

Before you burn your drums too black ashes



2 Guitar Solo



Before you burn

When you gonna learn

Before you burn your drums too black ashes

Before you burn

When you gonna learn

Before you burn your drums too black ashes

NOTHING CAN STOP ME - lyrics

NOTHING CAN STOP ME


Listen I built this beautiful ride

Frame up, from the chrome pan head

Swinging from the apes the pipes are pushing where I'm led

Rid-in has been everything since knee to my trike

Just hitting the sound and make'n my rounds to the world behind my bike


Na na na na na na 

Yea e yea e yea 

Na na na na na na 

Yea e yea e yea


Nothing can stop me 

Nothing can stop me 

Nothing can stop me 



If loving someone is letting them go I guess it's time to be sore

I've given everything is never enough, you're still crying more

Freeway takes me all the way onto the next town

Don't let me turn around, don't let me slow down



Na na na na na na 

Yea e yea e yea 

Na na na na na na 

Yea e yea e yea



The pipes are pushing

Where I'm leading

My ride’s been everything 

Since I was knee high knee high to my trike

The pipes are pushing 

Where I'm leading

My ride’s been everything 

Since I was knee high knee high to my trike 



(Guitar Solo)



No I wasn't born with a 4-O and a sack, but the very next day

I rolled my trike for the taps and if there is something you got to say 

And run your mouth with the crap about changing my ways no 

I'll never do that

Take that negative energy 

Grow some plants in the back 

Let that smoky breeze help relax your act

Then one day you're going to see

It's all about you, It's all about me living free



Na na na na na na 

Yea e yea e yea 

Na na na na na na 

Yea e yea e yea



Nothing can stop me

Nothing can stop me 

Nothing can stop me 

Nothing can stop me 

Nothing can stop me 

Nothing can stop me

PAPER AIRPLANE - lyrics

PAPER AIRPLANE


Gotta keep on keep on keep on pushing it

Got to get on through this sun holy place

Got my thumb up in the air sitting on that bag

On this highway that I don't think anyone is been



Know one next to me

But the lemon yellow sun


Lemon, yellow sun



Got to keep on moving got nowhere else to go

Got to get on back down to Mexico

Got my thumb up in the air sitting on that bag

On this highway that don't think anyone's been



Come take a ride, on my tin can freight train

Tin can, freight train



Across the sea of time in space we crawl among the dead in trance Sing for comfort and joy, into, the void

Across the sea of time in space we crawl among the dead in trance Sing for comfort and joy, into, the void



(Guitar Solo)



Gotta keep on keep on keep on pushing it

Got to get on through this sun holy place

Got my thumb up in the air sitting on that bag

On this highway that don't think anyone has been



Come and take a flight, on my paper airplane

Come and take a flight, on my paper airplane



Paper airplane

SUNSET NIGHT - lyrics

SUNSET NIGHT


I don't think I've felt so all alone

I guess it makes me stronger

I don't think I've been this far from home

I guess it made me wonder



I'm waiting on the sunset night

To be with you when I close my eyes

Waiting on the sunset night

To see your smile, sunrise

Waiting on this sunset night

To be with you when I close my eyes

Waiting on the sunset night

To see your smile, sunrise



(Guitar Solo)



Never thought I'd ever pull up 

The anchor, I knew it was time

Strong tides, heavy storms were in

I couldn't see the sky



I'm waiting on the sunset night

To be with you when I close my eyes

Waiting on the sunset night

To see your smile, so nice

Waiting on the sunset night

To be with you when I close my eyes

Waiting on the sunset night

To see your smile, so nice

Waiting on the sunset night

I miss your smile, so nice

LOOKING AT YOU - lyrics

LOOKING AT YOU


I'm looking at you

and there's nothing I used to see

I wish you would have said goodbye 

before your soul turned black

The wind on the cliff 

invited me to fly

she whispered I deserve peace 

peace of mind



I know, in keeping this covenant of myself too

Stay in, stitches waiting for what was is a

Castle, I built that burns the sky



I know the trinkets, of our ceremony 

mean nothing to you now

Please don't throw them under the yard sale sign

I'm looking at you 

and there's nothing I used to see

I wish you would have said goodbye 

before your soul turned black



I know, in keeping this covenant of myself too

Stay in, stitches waiting for what was is a

Castle,  I built, that burns, the sky 

It burns the sky

PAPA - lyrics

PAPA


Papa, print me tomorrow's paper

Papa, I want to look into the future


Just one day, just one day

Just one day, just one day



Won't you, help me to see 

What tomorrow’s, gonna bring me

I tried believed the hypnotized

Believe me I tried to believe those lies so

Won't you, help me to see 

The fortune I'm getting that coming up to me



Papa, print me tomorrow's paper

Papa, I want to look into the future

Just one day

Just one day



I know, I don't give a damn 

That the world gets hurt and the land cries sand but

I write the story in time

Print it on the front and at the bottom let me sign cause

I want it all, don't let me fall

Set me up on a pedestal 10 ft tall

And won't you help me to see 

The fortune I'm getting that's coming up to me



Papa, print me tomorrow's paper

Papa, I want to look into the future, just one



Ooo wow, yea Papa, ooo yea, it’s ok boy here’s your paper


(Guitar solo 1)


Ooo wow, just show me the future

Just one day

Show me the future

Blown away yea 

Papa


Papa, print me tomorrow's paper

Papa, I want to look into the future


Papa, won't you print me tomorrow's paper

Papa, I want to look into the future



(Guitar solo 2) 


Just one day

Just one day

Just one day

Just one day

Ooo wow

Give me just one day

Just one day

Just one day

Papa, give me the keys to my future

DRAG THE CHAIN - lyrics

DRAG THE CHAIN


Drudge, and rally around

Set it up to the letter then

Tear it down

Losing without fail

Isn't that called conformity? 

And the rule is to walk always uphill



And it's always my turn, like clockwork



Drag the chain

Drag the chain

Drag the chain



Wheels within wheels

Time grinds heavy, in my hand

A seed within a seed

Grows up in nowhere, nowhere land



And it's always my turn, like clockwork



Drag the chain

Drag the chain

Drag the chain



Won't you help me

Woha, woha, woha

no no no

oh no no no no no



Always uphill, eat my sorrow

Always uphill, help my pain

Always uphill, ????

Always uphill, all ways

Burn it down



(Guitar solo)

THE EDGE OF A FROZEN HEART - lyrics

THE EDGE OF A FROZEN HEART


Awoken once again

To the ice that invades my soul

Screaming out in pain

And i’m losing out control


Tears I  cry are icicles 

That break unto the floor 

Can I ever escape this place or 

Remain forever more


The darkness in me grows

The pain swallows my sole

It’s ripping me apart

Living on the edge of a frozen heart


Thousand years alone down here

Become a little crazy

All I remember from my past

Black and very hazy


The one thing that I know

You can mark these words for true

I will one day escape this place

And I’m coming straight for you


The darkness in me grows

The pain swallows my sole

Ripping me apart

Living on the edge of a frozen heart

HELL BORN - lyrics

HELL BORN


The air got sick 

My blood ran cold

The shadows of my head

Something here says to me

Welcome to the land of the dead


The air got sick 

My blood ran cold

The shadows of my head

Something here says to me

Welcome to the land of the dead


Your hear and now for ever

You find that your not so clever

Face the truth no more you

No more you hell born


Your hell born

Your hell born

Your hell born


Frozen I stood

There all alone

No hope for me this night

What have I done to put me here

Some how this just ain't right


Frozen I stood

There all alone

No hope for me this night

What have I done to put me here

Some how this just ain't right


Your hear and now for ever

You find that your not so clever

Face the truth no more you

No more you hell born


Your hell born

Your hell born

Your hell born

NEVER COMING BACK - lyrics

NEVER COMING BACK


Another storm 

another gray and worthless day

The sadness grows I feel your tears inside me


Hold me 

as we're going to part forever 

hold me 

cuz I'm never coming back


Another knows 

of all your cold excuses 

another night killed with the darkness

another voice

to hear what lives inside you 

another cold-hearted downfall


Hold me 

as we're going to part forever

hold me 

cuz I'm never coming back

Hold me 

as we're going to part forever

hold me 

cuz I'm never coming back

never coming back


Losing strength 

slipping into madness 

the Frozen flames that burn 

inside of me

Losing sleep 

losing frames of silence 

but nobody feeling breaking 

Spirit down


Hold me 

as we're going to part forever

hold me 

cuz I'm never coming back

hold me 

as we're going to part forever 

hold me 

cuz I'm never coming back

never coming back


All these years we wasted

swimming the ocean of sadness

the love we could have tasted 

could not overpower the madness


Hold me

if we're going to part forever

hold me 

cuz I'm never coming back

Oh my God I feel the silence 

in the darkness

Hold me 

cuz I'm never coming back


never coming back

never coming back

never coming back
