02. A Flight On An Angels Wing Music & lyrics by Devon Graves
Come to me and leave your fear
Come with me and follow near So Tired of the lies they laid upon you Open your eyes, then you will see Try to realize Don't believe any more corporate advise On your TV Come with me my friend Come with me and clear your mind Come and leave your world behind you Never too late to change your direction Don't be afraid, you wont walk alone I'm gonna take a flight on an angels wing Far and away She'll carry me, carry me home Come to me when the sirens sing With the cry of a world gone insane This sadness and this fear Was not meant to be here But the feeling has come over me Taker, desecrater Shaker, sorrow maker Nation decimation, democration, desolation coming... 03. To My Beloved Music & lyrics by Devon Graves
When the rains of the Earth stood still
In the faith of the darkest will Sorcerers of the ageless one Cursed the world for the days to come In the gaze of the Pharaoh Through the midnight the desert wind Cold as serpent skin To the scorching Cairo days High noon, the Sun ablaze We dragged great stones through the Egypt sands Built the walls with shackled hands Lived and died by the priests demands Sweet Mary Sweet Mary My heart is broken Now my soul is dead The word is spoken Sweet Mary Sweet Mary One day I'm gonna break this cage Unleash this human rage Crush their bones underneath these stones Sweet Mary Sweet Mary More than life could give While seasons turned, I devised my plan The perfect way we could make our stand We'll mark this day with blood-red stains They've got whips but we've got chains And we've got the numbers, nearly ten-to-one When their eyes are blind by the setting Sun We'll rise up to engage them Sweet Mary Sweet Mary... 04. Don't You Ever Hurt? Music & lyrics by Devon Graves
I hear the words you're telling me
I don't believe what you say I fear the world you're selling me It's not worth what we must pay Don't you ever hurt? The weight of my wishes is breaking me But I would not put them down I don't like the places they're taking me But I would not turn around I have no time for scenery To watch the Sun going down The hands of time seemingly Turning faster around Don't you ever hurt? Don't you feel this frustration Feel it burning inside Don't you feel the temptation To let this whole thing collide together Take me back to the place we're from Back to where you and I belong Pray this madness has come and gone Change is coming, we have not long All of this cold machinery One day won't be around All our possessions Our everything Won't be keeping us bound Don't you ever hurt? 05. Some Sane Advice Music & lyrics by Devon Graves
Hey man where you going to?
Mind if I'm heading with you? I'd say but it isn't clear Only that it could be far from here So walk with me Hey man, while we're passing through Mind if I confided in you? Can't stand the grappling hands Clawing away at everything they can Holding on to a ludicrous plan A day in the life of a modern man And where do we go from here Sane advise is all I'm hoping to find Sane advise is all that I'm hoping to find Hey man, in the civil life Everybody's scared And hanging on to broken promises The whole damn thing is coming unwound Isn't it disillusioning Every day the same old thing And only closer to the bitter end Searching for something to never be found Am I mistaken On the path I have taken Am I forsaken Will the world re-awaken Old man illusion Pardon my intrusion This mad confusion here I don't understand Can you make it clear Hey man, is it over then Think that I'm headed back again... 06. Let The Hammer Fall Music & lyrics by Devon Graves
Wanted to feel something real
Can't find it in the city As long as I stay, aint no way I'm gonna find it here Want to conceal what I feel Because it aint too pretty Let the hammer fall down Wont you let the hammer fall down Some people say that the day is going to be tomorrow Others contend that the end is never coming here One thing I know is that no one will be safe from sorrow When the hammer falls down, honey When the hammer falls down Always know that I will love you Let the hammer fall down Always know that I still love you Let the hammer fall down Part of the scheme in my dream is clouded in my vision All that I say takes away another part of me One thing for sure, that the cure for this sad condition Let the hammer fall down Honey, let the hammer fall down One blade of grass through the cracks in the broken city Kind of reminds me that Eden wants to come again The mightiest tower standing, obliterated When the hammer falls down, honey When the hammer falls down... 07. Waiting In Line Music & lyrics by Devon Graves
In search of something
I hope to find Could be the one thing always on my mind To find the key to Unlock this chain To break away but somehow I remain With such a hunger In such a pain I'd like to cry but somehow I refrain Your eyes are saying You feel the same You'd like to fly but Somehow you're restrained Waiting in line Waiting in line Wasting away my time Waiting in line Waiting in line And I'm still on the outside now Within my heart And in my dreams I have no use for all these shiny things To seek our fortune In all that gleams We fill the world with walking dead machines Waiting in line waiting in line Wasting away my time Waiting in line Waiting in line Still on the outside Thirsting, needing, hurting, pleading cries And it's turning, reeling, burning me inside Cursed to bleed in burden, greed and pride When the voices speak the truth to spread the lie Waiting to die Waiting to die now To break the spell Cast on this Earth Look to your heart and find what life is worth... 08. Someday Music & lyrics by Devon Graves
I've been waiting for something to take me from this life
Waiting for something to dim this blinding light Waiting for something that can make this wrong feel right Hanging, hanging in hopeless endless plight Aiming, firing but there's no one there to fight Someday, someday But nothing on this night... 09. My Dying Wish Music & lyrics by Devon Graves
On the day I die
Don't pray for me Soulstealer In the place I lye Set me free Soulstealer Take your crosses from my grave All the tokens of your faith Far from me When the voices of the saints Call to send me on my way Don't you let them speak for me Like the ocean turns to rain I will come back to reclaim My space of love Where I will rise again Take me to the place where I belong Take me to the grace we've fallen from On the day I die Don't you let them pray for me... 10. A Fistful Of Bended Nails Music & lyrics by Devon Graves
So far away
The wings of a butterfly Pounding away Stir the breeze into hurricanes Into this day Echoes of past lives resounding in me They crash like the waves Fleeing like ghosts from their mortal remains The blood on our hands All of these waves can't wash away People of faith Cry at the feet of a dying God The tears of their face I know they cry for themselves Because if they cared They'd stand with a fistful of bended nails We're rejoicing Spinning through this hallow void We're rejoicing Could it be we laugh a bit too loud We're rejoicing We're rejoicing... 11. The Long Ride Home Music by Devon Graves and Adel Moustafa Lyrics by Devon Graves
Haven't I gave it all for you?
Haven't I paid enough for what you say and what you do? I've found the way I've found the way I'd love to take you to my world Haven't I waited long for you? Haven't I waited long for you? Haven't I played my song, Prayed so long for something new? I know the way I'm on the way I'd love to take you to my world... |
