Bitter blood on the blood stained highway
We're brothers in arms til' we get it right You're gonna want it your way It's gonna be done now Don't take it to far Gonna get it right Move on, from the past Agree to disagree Every sorrow has it's source And your conscious isn't free In the dog days of summer On another sober September This was meant for you Am I not my brothers keeper All is what it seems to be I'm a strong rival A bitter enemy Best friend (best friend) Till the end (till the end) The man you wish to be They pray for villains When their heroes let them down They pray for villains When their heroes let them down The tide that bind the clock that winds And the oceans meets the sky On the hour of my death Will you be standing by Every sorrow has it's source And your conscious isn't free In the dog days of summer On another sober September This was meant for you Am I not my brothers keeper All is what it seems to be I'm a strong rival A bitter enemy Best friend (best friend) Till the end (till the end) The man you wish to be They pray for villains When their heroes let them down They pray for villains When their heroes let them down Bless the broken road As we limp back home You get off on the sound Of everything coming down So down Right down the broken road They pray for villains When their heroes let them down They pray for villains When their heroes let them down 02. Pure Sincerity
Dying is easy
It's living that's hard It's so disturbing to hear what you're fearing Rain of terror out in the cold Give 'em what they want Give 'em what they need Pure sincerity Pure sincerity It's what made me born from insanity Pure sincerity Pure! Questions asked, the answers come quickly Remorse can be so dangerous Wolf in the fold, terror within Out in the cold Give 'em what they want Give 'em what they need Pure sincerity Pure sincerity It's what made me born from insanity Pure sincerity The things I am The things that I've become The wings of honor Son of Father Don't know if I can stand Where I once fucking stood If I could, if I could Don't you think I fucking would! Things to come, it must be from the heart Things to come Are these shadows of things from the past? Are these the shadows of things to come? Things to come, to come! Things to come Where do we go? Where do we go? Pure sincerity Pure sincerity It's what made me born from insanity Pure sincerity 03. Fate Stepped In
Fate!
Peddlers, pushers, insects The chants, charms Blood sweat and beer I've got bones to throw It's no secret Secrets aren't bought and sold You gotta pay With your heart and soul We're all laid low by the hand So get your head up Get your head up outta the sand So get your head up The lion will eat the heart Serpents coil from the start What did you hope to achieve? Along side rides, one with great destiny Fate stepped in to lend a hand again Fate stepped in to lend a hand Fate stepped in to lend a hand again Fate stepped in to lend a hand Echoes from the grave! Potions, oils, insects Their chants, charms Blood sweat and beer I've got bones to throw It's no secret Secrets aren't bought and sold You gotta pay With your heart and soul We're all laid low by the hand So get your head up Get your head up outta the sand So get your head up The lion will eat the heart Serpents coil from the start What did you hope to achieve? Along side rides, one with great destiny Fate stepped in to lend a hand again Fate stepped in to lend a hand Fate stepped in to lend a hand again Fate stepped in to lend a hand Echoes from the grave! Watching the vultures swarm Like being tied down In the midday sun Echoes from the grave! From the grave From the grave Echoes from the grave! From the grave From the grave From the grave From the grave 04. Back With A Vengeance
From counted out to feared, some say
That I'm back with a vengeance I never left, I smell your fear 'Cause I'm back with a vengeance Bruised tattered and torn, if it's punishing Overtimes even the score Don't start thinking that you've got the best of me I've got some news for you, you ain't seen the last of me, no! Don't start thinking that you've got the best of me I've got some news for you, you ain't seen the last of me, no! One foot in Hell, up on the highway Now I'm back with a vengeance No matter what I've said The vendetta's not dead I'm back with a vengeance Bruised tattered and torn, if it's punishing Overtimes even the score Don't start thinking that you've got the best of me I've got some news for you, you ain't seen the last of me, no! Don't start thinking that you've got the best of me I've got some news for you, you ain't seen the last of me No! The last of me! No! The last of me! I've got some news for you You ain't seen the last of me, no! I've been waiting all this time Because time is on my side Not in the future time is now Because time is on my side On my side! Don't start thinking that you've got the best of me I've got some news for you, you ain't seen the last of me, no! Don't start thinking that you've got the best of me I've got some news for you, you ain't seen the last of me, no! No! The last of me No! Don't you ever think! I've got some news for you! No! The last of me No! Don't you ever think! No! You've seen the last of me 05. I've Been Sober
Lord I miss the highway, running against the wind
Blessed are the stoned, and all the places they've been Shadow of a man at home, beating a dead horse Home too long, cross to bear Methods of the past mold the future You can't fall short as you get older Wear the chains you forged in life Link by link by link Wear the chains you forged in life Link by link by link I've been sober 13 days and 7 nights I know next time I'll get it right You tried to make me stay I said 'No way' Grabbed my bag and hit the highway Echoes in the dark, new faces bring the sun Comfort and disturbed, always think the worst You live and die by your own decisions You live and die by your own religion Being run around is being trapped Seized up, kept!! Wear the chains you forged in life Link by link by link Wear the chains you forged in life Link by link by link I've been sober 13 days and 7 nights I know next time I'll get it right You tried to make me stay I said 'No way' Grabbed my bag and hit the highway I've been sober 13 days and 7 nights I know next time I'll get it right You tried to make me stay I said 'No way' Grabbed my bag and hit the highway Sobriety suits you so well It suits you so well It suits you so well It suits you so well It suits you so well So well! 06. Resurrection Blvd.
She brings me nails and turpentine
All of this time, the girl was mine I am alone like a rusty door All of the time, my head in the fog Cat's in the corner, dog's on the floor Phone keeps ringing she's asking for more Spaces between places, I'm not worthy Leave me alone! You should of never left me alive You should of sat and watched me die Isn't it hard? Living on Resurrection Boulevard Isn't it hard? Isn't it hard? Isn't it hard? Living on Resurrection Boulevard Isn't it hard? Isn't it hard? He brings me life so full of smiles All of this time been friends for miles Walking for hours laughing for days Talking shit, unearth his grave Cat's in the corner, dog's on the floor Phone keeps ringing she's asking for more Spaces between places, I'm not worthy Leave me alone! You should of never left me alive You should of sat and watched me die Isn't it hard? Living on Resurrection Boulevard Isn't it hard? Isn't it hard? Isn't it hard? Living on Resurrection Boulevard Isn't it hard? Isn't it hard? Isn't it hard? Isn't it hard? Isn't it hard? Isn't it? You, you should of sat and watched me die (On Resurrection Boulevard) You, you should of never left me alive (Left me alive, alive) Isn't it hard? Isn't it hard? On Resurrection Boulevard Isn't it Hard? On Resurrection Boulevard Isn't it hard? Isn't it? 07. Forgiveness Is A Six Gun
3rd degree, on the corner of Quit street
And Temptation Avenue On the road to redemption, outside of heaven Pride can be dangerous and you knew Method of execution, length of duration At what cost? Forgiveness is a six gun Teach me how to shoot The truth is like a moving target Forgiveness is a six gun The streets from the start, have been filled with doubt And they are set free, you needed someone to carry you Fighting and counting the days, the error of your ways Methods of execution, length of duration At what cost? Forgiveness is a six gun Teach me how to shoot The truth is like a moving target Forgiveness is a six gun In cold blood, dressed in black Tombstones and tumbleweeds Left the dead behind, watched 'em falling Let Smith and Wesson do the motherfucking talking Dust in my eyes, dust in the street Shotguns and broken dreams Now we left the dead behind, watched 'em falling Let the Smith and Wesson do the motherfucking talking Now! Forgiveness is a six gun Teach me how to shoot The truth is like a moving target Forgiveness is a six gun There is no forgiveness There is no forgiveness There is no forgiveness There is no forgiveness 08. Waiting For November
A pain by any other name, is death before its time is due
You survived and made it through Still inside the loss is buried deep With what you went through at the funeral Don't know how you pushed on, buried your creator Took good care, such kind care You look so beautiful at your funeral Laid out and dressed your best As your daughter put you to rest You have such faith in life Can't tell you how many times You've given me my backbone Took good care, such kind care You look so beautiful at your funeral Laid out and dressed your best As your daughter put you to rest You look so beautiful at your funeral Laid out and dressed your best As your daughter put you to rest Waiting for November Trying to make you smile A birthday shared by two Scorpio child You look so beautiful at your funeral Laid out and dressed your best As your daughter put you to rest You look so beautiful at your funeral Laid out and dressed your best As your daughter put you to rest To rest! So rest! So rest! Buried in a far away place Buried in a far away place Buried in a far away place 09. It's In The Cards
Between the head and hands
Must surely be a heart Time and space is an illusion for man One foot in the grave and one to start Walking against the wind Living by the night We're all thick as thieves sometimes And I know it ain't right It's in the cards Written in the stars Scratched on the walls of the bars, man Where demons dwell Where demons dwell Got scars in bars (knife fights) Broke bones in arms (ducked a gunfight) It's a hunter's moon and I'll be gone soon You stare like a goat with a twisted smile There's another motherfucker wants a fist fight Bringing knives to a gun fight We're all thick as thieves sometimes And I know it ain't right It's in the cards Written in the stars Scratched on the walls of the bars, man Where demons dwell Where demons dwell It's in the cards Written in the stars Scratched on the walls of the bars, man Where demons dwell Where demons dwell It's in the cards Written in the stars Scratched on the walls of the bars, man Where demons dwell Where demons dwell Where demons dwell Where demons dwell Where demons dwell 10. Another Night In London
Laying down the law, listen to the hammer
Mouth of madness, watch the wicked gather Streets of stone, underneath the grey skies Nights come, they speak of devils in disguise It takes people like you, to make people like me It take people like me to make people like you Let's start a riot, another night in London Let's start a riot, while the night is still young Let's start a riot, another night in London Let's start a riot, while the night is still young While the night is still young! Shadows of light, not a glimpse of the sun Going 'til morning, 'til the battles won Streets of stone, underneath the grey skies Nights come, they speak of devils in disguise It takes people like you, to make people like me It take people like me to make people like you Let's start a riot, another night in London Let's start a riot, while the night is still young Let's start a riot, another night in London Let's start a riot, while the night is still young Shots fired The sound of a new generation No future, no revolution For you! For you! For me! No fucking revolution you! It takes people like you, to make people like me It take people like me to make people like you Let's start a riot, another night in London Let's start a riot, while the night is still young Let's start a riot, another night in London Let's start a riot, while the night is still young Shots fired, fights! While the night is still young! 11. Bitter Pill
Turn your tired eyes home
Put the sword to stone Death by boredom The rich man bears the burden That the poor man seeks to chase The chase is certain Did not see it coming Better stand for something They're wicked as they come Break the cycle Racing down the flames While building the coffins Iron unbroken Break the cycle It's a bitter pill Such a bitter pill to swallow It's a bitter pill Such a bitter pill to swallow I've broke the cycle, after all these years Death by boredom, not afraid to reveal What the world is sensing The chase is certain Did not see it coming Better stand for something They're wicked as they come Break the cycle Racing down the flames While building the coffins Iron unbroken Break the cycle It's a bitter pill Such a bitter pill to swallow It's a bitter pill Such a bitter pill to swallow Silence is my companion With a pride it's going worldwide It's spreading worldwide Across the great divide With a pride it's going worldwide It's spreading worldwide Across the great divide Healer, believer On the bended knee, when push comes to shove Healer, believer Time and time again, you push me too far It's a bitter pill Such a bitter pill to swallow It's a bitter pill Such a bitter pill to swallow It's a bitter pill Such a bitter pill It's a bitter pill Such a bitter pill to swallow 12. Teach Me To Whisper
Trouble is on its way
It's on its way Another day, another decision One that eventually affects us both Teach me to whisper, cause I feel like screaming Teach me to whisper Anger and hatred are their oars Revenge their vessel Be strong Be patient Making the best of a bad situation Making the best of! Making the best of a bad situation Making the best of! This is your conscience speaking, spare your spirit Trouble is on its way, it's on its way Teach me to whisper Cause I feel like screaming, teach me to whisper Anger and hatred are their oars Revenge their vessel Be strong Be patient Making the best of a bad situation Making the best of! Making the best of a bad situation Making the best of! Behold the destroyer By the hand of man Death be delivered Behold the destroyer By the hand of man Death be delivered Anger and hatred are their oars Revenge their vessel Be strong Be patient Making the best of a bad situation Making the best of! Making the best of a bad situation Making the best of! 13. I See Belief
Death rides a horse full force, burning bridges
Put asunder, this I'm under One face, one oath, one truth Easy money consorts with easy virtue Sing you sinners silent thunder The joy of rapture, riding the bullet It can't be captured One face, one oath, one truth Easy money consorts with easy virtue No methods to their madness It's gonna be a long hot winter I see belief When no one else does I see belief When no one else does Hope dies, better off think of one Hope dies, these rules are for fools One face, one oath, one truth Easy money consorts with easy virtue Sing you sinners silent thunder The joy of rapture, riding the bullet It can't be captured One face, one oath, one truth Easy money consorts with easy virtue No methods to their madness It's gonna be a long hot winter I see belief When no one else does I see belief When no one else does |
