14 YEAR HANGOVER On this 14 year hangover, feels like i'm being blown under falling down again, seems like there was something i should have told her on this 14 year heartbreak, our lives were at stake falling down again, keeps getting colder and colder when i got back, to where i had been i started up on vodka, started up on gin to believe you were my friend we couldn't end like we could begin so i'm passed out on the floor again

Old Grandma 03:49
I've been in business all my life and I seek no penance for my crimes I just wait to die Unfurl the junkyard of my time review the carnage and unwind there'll be no sleep tonight Now I'm stabbing at my eyes sharpness reveals whats warm inside old grandma holds the knife Now I'm stabbing at my brain knitting needle heals the pain I'll never see you again

Blue Rose 03:34
BLUE ROSE: down in the garden, after the rain she found the rose, she felt the pain felt the sorrow, she saw the end sweet dreams and innocence, never again the nightingale, sings a sweet dark song black dreams and wishes, carry me along screams in the night, the vengeance is her hoping the nightingale, is only a bird i saw you baby, under the trees you are a lady, you never see tears you cry, run down my face memories, of sin and lace

GHOST RUNNER ON FIRST Back in the days of youth with 2 friends of mine we played the three man kickball all the time and with the three man rules you cant avoid the fate to call a ghost runner on first base The yard in which we toiled was large it backed up to the old man's barn lot and he didn't like it when the ball would come is way said "I'm gonna shoot you little bastards dead one day, and you'll REALLY be a ghost runner on first..." Well I remember well the day me and Michael got Ed to play with two in the field and one at bat, the ghost runners carried the day to score was 3 to 5 to 8 Then I saw old Edward take the plate his eyes were filled with crazy kickball hate and with malice, kicked it very far it landed somewhere in the old man's yard the old man's yard was death's door overgrown, but we finally found the ball as Edward grabbed it, a shot rang out - blew a four inch hole in Ed as we ran screaming, the old man said "I told you little shits before, don't kick the ball in my yard! now you're little buddy is dead!! Remember just what I said - I said you'd REALLY be a GHOST RUNNER ON FIRST"

HEAVEN CAN WAIT: wake me up in my dreams, so i'll know if this is real god grants us gifts as these, our very souls to seal as i'm walking down this lonely highway think i'll find out if you might be going my way took a chance, you took my hand shooting up, on the burning sand heart exploded for your love i'm gonna see you in the air above

TOMB OF THE LIZARD KING Sakatha was a great lizard king said to have powers stored in a ring over swamp lands and plains lands his minions, they spread his very name filled all creatures with dread To build his great tomb in the marsh, many men died of slavery most harsh his minions took all of our best for his altar not for one moment did his bloody thirst falter Deep in the ground, He awaits... to dine on human flesh your pitiful group will be impaled on stakes and disemboweled His majesty steps forth grips your heart in bloodied fist your life snuffed out and then there came the Great Count of Eyor the greatest of heroes in those days of yore he slew Sakatha at the battle of Wycombe the lizard men carried their slaughtered chief home and now he awaits in the cold sleep of death his day of awakening, his first newborn breath though deep in the ground his followers closed him, he'll come back for vengeance on those who opposed him

LONESOME ROAD well as i walk the lonesome road, thinking of my true love she said forget about my dream love you won't walk away with me love and while you're on the lonesome road don't forget about your true love you just tie the ties that bind love even though your love is so cold lonesome road that goes right past your door lonesome road is the one that you put me on well now the hobo on the road said he'd tell me everything he knows says i'll never grow old drinking on that road and as i walk the lonesome road thinking of my true love understand my dream love you gotta wait for that heaven above

Descent 04:17
DESCENT Found a way of being alone gone so far from home and if my mind is devoured by fate, I'll ask why it came so late... Claw my way back wading through the blood when the thickness flows lean against the flood As the darkness cradles me voices speak the lies that please the sky has turned all black with death the mind crumbles into darkness the mind is bleeding inside the world is closing in leaning to the flipside indifferent to sin Found a way of being alone gone so far from home and if my mind is devoured by fate, I'll ask why it came so late...

Necrophiliac 03:22
NECROPHILIAC i'm a necrophiliac, and i know just where it's at if you're dead, we'll have a chat i'll poke you with my baseball bat i'm a necrophiliac, so if you have a heart attack i'll see you mouth, i'll see your ass so drop your pants and get on your back necrophiliac, your icy corpse on my nut sack so if you're walking through the graveyard too i'll be there, looking for a screw icy skulls shine in the morning dew you must be a necrophiliac too

Al-Chi-Ho 03:16
AL-CHI-HO At last I have found you and I'll never let you go a vision in a bottle you love me too I know When we're together I feel nothing and that suits me just fine my lovely mistress triad liquor, beer, and wine I'll embrace you 'til you're empty then I'll toss you aside got 12 more just waiting ice cold blushing brides I ain't proud and I ain't picky most times I can barely see that bitch goddess by the name of whiskey has dug her claws in me

THROUGH THE WINDOW you'll never get what you desire you're walking thin out on the wire why did you tell me twice you started rolling the dice i look through the window and it's cold as ice almost you'll baste in juices from the fire the words you hear from a liar and once you start to feel this sad you're gonna find that a broken heart is not so bad
