1. Black

Black, is it dark enough?
Is it hot or cold or stark enough?
Black, is it dirty or sad?
Is it old or cruel or broken or bad?
Black, is it all you see
When you close your eyes, you think of me?
Black, black, black

Black, is it nightmare or dream?
Is it midnight sky or silent scream?
Black, is it the chains you wear?
Or the color of the cross you bear?
Black, is it what you hate?
The hangman?s hood or the offering plate?
Black, black, black

Is it the shame that drives you back?
Is it the train that jumps the track
Just as you?re slipping through the cracks?
Black, black

Black, is it your medicine
Your soul, your hole or the shape you?re in?
Black, is it your wedding gown
Your eyes, your lies or the truth you?ve found?
Black, is it beautiful?
Is it animal or criminal?
Black black black

Is it the shame that burns your soul?
Is it the fear you can?t control?
Is it the night that won?t let go?
Black, black

Black, is it the enemy
That hides inside of you and me?
Black, is it the preacher?s cloak
Your father?s curse or your mother?s joke?
Black, is it the pain you own
Or the plague that?s eating at your bones?
Black, black, black

Is it the ashes of your dreams?
Is it the nature of your greed?
Is it the walls between you and me?

2. Fall

Words are spoken, swallowed in vain
Slowly, I?m choking
I cough it up, cough it up, cough it up again
Familiar, familiar

Laughing, laughing at the man who
Never had a chance to dream your dreams
Find it funny here today, you know
But, if by tomorrow, you might wonder then
Why your seeds are weeds
Familiar, familiar
Familiar, is it familiar?

Open up – There?s a river in us all
Open up – From the cradle where we crawl
Open up – It?s so unusual
Open up – Cause sitting on the wall
Everybody?s got to Fall

Oh, show me, show me a reason
A reason for, anything I see
Round and round and round and round, we go
What happened to my brother?
Will his flowers wither? Just like me, yeah
Familiar, familiar
Familiar, is it familiar?

I am no preacher, I know no teachings
Sway my mind, dear with your primal screechings
Buried under, your plastic cover
You are me, and I am you

3. Loverman

When the river don?t run, and the night won?t fall
When I fear the touch,of the highway?s call
When I close my eyes and the dreams won?t come
When the world has set me free
Will you still be with me?
My Loverman

When the moon turns red, and the sun burns black
When the reaper?s whip falls across my back
Will you lay me down,on a bed of stone
In that long and silent sleep, will you be with me?

What if I just go flying away?
What would you say?
Would you wait a million years?
Would you cry a million tears for me?
Or would you take my hand?
Would you fly away with me?
Would you be with me?
Loverman

When the hour glass is broken
And the final word is spoken
When fate has lost it?s power
This word will still be ours Loverman
Oh, my Loverman
Yeah

What if I just go flying away?
What would you say?
Would you steal me from the cold?
Would you lead me to my soul again?
And when we reach the end, when we face eternity
Would you be with me, my Loverman?
Oh, Loverman
Yeah

4. Killin' Kind

Did the lights go out forever?
Has the night just gone insane?
Did what?s broken fall together?
Has my heart gone down in flames?
Though I heard your lies, I can?t deny
I hunger for the feeling
And I know it?s wrong, but I?m hanging on
Crying in my sleep

So wrong,I?m over my head
So right,I?m out of my mind
Your love is the killin? kind
Two hearts, You swallow my heart
One life, Like you swallow my life
Your love is the killin? kind
If I only could remember
Why I let you in so deep
If I?d only known you better
I could have put these dreams to sleep
Well, you haunt me now, you wear me down
Get me where I?m weak
Yeah, you twist the knife
Your sacrifice
Bring me to my knees

I know
I know if the end of the world falls in your arms
I?ll remember, every tear I?ve ever cried for you
Baby, when I said I?d die for you
I lied

5. Hammerhead

He sees himself as a warrior
In a world that doesn?t understand
A demon light fills the eyes, of this mechanical man
He?s a living, breathing nightmare
He?s twisted and he?s mean
In his head, the walking dead are his war secret machine
Oh, Hammerhead

He was just a lonely boy before the demons took control
His sanity, humanity, lost somewhere long ago
Now the poisons in his memory
Are clogging up his veins
And the lonliness like a devil?s kiss
Has gone straight to his brain
Oh, Hammerhead

Now he?s lost within his madness
And more and more each day
The metal man turns his hand
To the price the world must pay
Hammerhead
Oh, Hammerhead

6. Boilin' Point

Caught in the sights of a killing fire
On streets filled with ashes and smoke
Flames reaching up to a dirty sky
Like some kind of sick deadly joke

Can?t stop what hate started
There?s no cooling down
I?m past the boiling point now

Every day my TV screen
Is pushing me to make somebody bleed
The chains 'round your neck got me wondering
How you?ll ever get the freedom that you need
Can?t turn this world into heaven
By burning it down to the ground

I?m on fire
I?m burning up
My temperature?s rising, point of no return
Watch out or you just might burn

The walls fall down like dominoes
Nobody?s left to pay what?s due
Too many crazy people running round
Starting wars between me and you

7. Where Will I Find My Love Tonight

I found hunger in the fields of plenty
I found freedom in a ball and chain
I found madness in the voice of reason
I found mercy at the hangman?s gate
I?ve held the world in the palm of my hand
And watched as it slipped through my fingers like sand
Here I am alone again

Where do I turn
When all I see around me is a lie?
If I close my eyes
Where will I find my heart tonight?
I know all my dreams have fallen on hard times
And I?m so cold inside
Where will I find my heart tonight?

I found peace in the heat of the battle
I found treason in the eyes of a friend
I found hate in the words of a preacher
I found fortune in a beggar?s hands
I close my eyes and pray for the light
To guide my way
Into the night, I fall
And the world is crashin? down around my soul

I have searched a thousand years
Through the darkness and the tears
And I don?t think I can take another night
Without you here

8. War Of The Angels

She runs through the streets, so desperately young
Her eyes aflame, and her mind undone
She aches for the songs, that will never be sung
And the heroes so quickly forgotten

She sees a friend, in the church yard light
Laughing and joking and talking to the sky
Shots ring out, and he hits the ground
He never opens his eyes
And she cries

Heaven is closed to the angels below
Streets of gold are now paved with sorrow
God only knows what happens to love
When the innocence is gone
And the war of the angels has begun

The ghosts in her head, have faces and names
They?re soldiers and children, all one in the same
In the streets and the alleys, hear the battle cries sound
And the angels run for cover
As the world comes tumbling down
All through the night the battle is fought
They can never win back the lives they?ve lost
Down on her knees, in the tear stained dawn
She just closes her eyes and whispers goodbye

Another day in the neighborhood
Better dry your eyes and be off to school
She packs her lunch and her daddy?s gun
Seems much too old to be so young
The battle begins the day that you?re born
Into this world, so heartsick and war torn
Somebody better come and carry her away
Maybe this angel will live...
To fly again someday

9. Joe

Twenty-one, so young and tender but blue
I remember, I remember laughing for no reason with you, laughing

Sharing a bottle on the stairs
That led to your wooden room
Full of cigarettes and green glass bottles
Yesterday?s meal by the mattress on the floor
Where we danced...
In the garden below your window
Where I first began to know
To know you
Joe

Whisper the memory but not too loud
Remember the symphony when we were allowed, to play?
Touch my hand, show me how, stroke my brow
I need to know now that I can dance with you
I wanna dance with you, I wanna dance
Like I did when I first began to know you, Joe
A now I gotta say

I think I wanna ride
I think I?m gonna fly along on your magic carpet
I think I wanna ride
I think I?m gonna fly along on your magic carpet

So I?m sitting here with the sun about to smile
About to show it?s face and take away my little fantasy
Break out the phonograph, play some "Billie" for me
One more time before I go
Let it shine, shine, shine, shine on me
I think I wanna know, wanna know you, Joe

Sit down in the back room
And throw me over the bar
Fly me up to your sky, moon
A-now,A-beep-bop-ba-da-dee-yah
A-what? Oh, that?s it
I know it sounds kinda crazy
I think I wanna know, wanna know you, Joe
Yeah!

10. White Lightnin'

I was born to a gypsy woman
With lightning crashing all around my crib
Doctor took one look, he started running
He got two steps and lightning struck him dead
The wind was howling like the devil come knocking
The house came down, the cradle was rocking

He called out for a hoodoo man
With a rock 'n? roll attitude
He made a sign with his mo-jo hand
And the lightning done struck him blue
I jumped out of that cradle
Grabbed a black cat bone and said
"Mama, don?t you worry, I was born to storm."

When lightning strikes and the walls fall down
I?m a wild cat, baby, when the thunder sounds
When lightning strikes, white lightning
And double or nothing, baby, pull my switch
I got a six string hammer,gonna scratch this itch
I?m a white witch, honey with long blonde hair
Won?t you step into my electric chair

Yeah, rock me right outta my crib
Put on the floor, hah, I almost cracked open my head

12. Spider Monkeys

I'm a spider monkey baby, gonna crawl all over you
I'm a spider monkey baby, gonna crawl all over you
I'm gonna love you baby, just like a spider monkey do

I've been swinging in this jungle
Ever since I was a child
I've been swinging in this jungle
Ever since I was a baby child
I've been waiting for you darlin
To come and join me in the wild

I'm a spider monkey baby
Just can't keep me down
I'm a spider monkey baby, never touch the ground
Won't you swing with me honey
Down in spider monkey town

I'm a spider monkey baby
I'm gonna get you in my tree
I'm a spider monkey sugar
I'm gonna get you in my tree
Won't you come on sweet baby do that monkey thing with me
