Death & Progress

Flyin' high, starcrossed lovers of the night Flyin' high, starcrossed lovers of the night You're flying high into a sky of screaming stars Across a universe erected in your heart Where tomorrow always comes from yesterday's departed Crimes...Designs...Mischief on your mind Venus in her chariot of fire draws her flame Passion pours herself a drink and calls you by her name Slippin'...Slidin'...Sacrificing love for something nameless that seems a little nearer to your dreams are here Take another cup of sin and fill it up Take another sip of hemlock to your lips Be deceived by lies and you're flying high Flyin' high, starcrossed lovers of the night Flyin' high, starcrossed lovers of the night A kind of atrophy affected you at birth So instead of living you decided you were dead Lovers of the night in your confusion You stand and then you fall In your illusion And you'll try flyin' high You better come down, still flying high You better come down, you're on the moon You better come down

Black clouds in a red sky. No light but the war fires No time, like the time of our lives. It's the crime of our lives, Flashing by Too much affectation, no love in your frustrations so we fail, how can we sit and just sit while this world goes to shit Hide. Think you can hide yourself away? Hide. When there ain't no peace on earth today. Get runnin', it's comin' Wheel goin' round round. World comin' down down Black bell rings out the old ways Death comes to steal the new day All secrets to be revealed. After all these years It shall be fulfilled. No time for you to hide It's gonna run you into the ground. Hide. When there ain't no peace on earth today. It's comin', get runnin'. Look through the darkness and see it come. You can't escape, you gotta face it head on. No time to burn, no time to slide Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide What have we done now? No time to burn, no time to slide Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide Truckin' Truckin' Feel the weight bearing down, down Truckin' Truckin' When there ain't no peace on earth to be found. No time, in a stop sign No light, on the dark side No fight, in the man who can't live with the self that he learned how to. Hide. Think you can hide yourself away? Hide. When there ain't no peace on earth today. Truckin' Truckin' Looking to run you into the ground It's comin', get runnin' All our souls goin' down down. Wheels goin' round round.

All that I see...in your eyes is truth, All that I am...is because of you...oh All that I have I will give to you my friend All that there is, all that I am, Until the very end I'm calling out to the silent night I'm calling out your name...oh Calling out to the son and the light, Calling out your name Oh now, see what you see. That you really love me Oh my life is clear To be near How still is the night without your touch Cold are my tears without your love ...without your love You're all that I am all that I need All that I can be Something so strong to hold up my world so I can be free I can be heard Calling out to the silent night I'm calling out your name...oh Calling out to the son and the light, Calling out your name Oh now, see what you see. That you really love me Oh Lord my life is clear But I'm out here in a field of dreams. Dreams Callin', callin' callin' out to the son Callin' out 'til you come Callin' out in my shame Callin' your name

I've tried believin' even tried cheatin' myself of almost everything just to fashion reason out of what must have been nothin' at all Now I can't when exactly I saw through the darkness and into the light Fantastic as it was it was cool and bright Like on a steely night of shadows Still far from home When I came round I saw myself on a merry go round With my heart on the ground And there I see The rains coming down to wash away the dream we found Lyin' there for all to see in the dust of memories Where the rain beats down to wash away the dream we found Now there's nothing left for me But you can set me free I won't believe ya neither deceive ya when you say we gotta carry on 'Cos I know the dream is over The one we shared so long...too long When we could have been getting on just being friends And not holding on to the past Which is just sand I guess we try to belong 'Cos we have to be strong just to get it done But I was on the ground most of the time On a merry go round looking up but going down And there I see the rains comin' down to wash away the dream we found Lyin' there for all to see in the dust of memories Where the rain beats down to wash away the dream we found Now there's nothing left for me Can you see? The rain beat down, rain come down But what can we do with a thing like you A heart with a hard on for ignorance A child of fools where nothing rings true In a myth that's cruel, where I see the cross You see the nail, where you see the mytsery I see the failure And it's bringing me down, I'm just a clown On a merry go round looking up but going down And there I see the rains comin' down to wash away the dream we found Lyin' there for all to see in the dust of memories Where the rain beats down to wash away the dream we found A spider fingered vice all sugar and spice Runnin' down my face feelin' like black rain Clawin' under my skin and running through my veins Like a poison I must suck just to change my luck Where the rain beats down to wash away the dream we found Rain beat down...down...rain beat down Down Down Down Down Down Yeah Rain beat down...Dream come down

The dogs are howling and the night is black enough to touch So hold up that fire burning flame of love And when the darkness comes like it does for us all You'd better run to my world And we'll never come down when we're up, we're up And we'll never stop trying Ooh baby when it's tough, it's tough But what can I do when I'm loving you And there's only need, the need for us too I'm racing to you on the breath of fire My lips are open with that sweet desire So come running to me yeah Run, like the wind to my heart Don't stop, run to my world Run, to my mountain top Run, til you drop And we've got nothing but time In a world of lies But when I see love right there in my baby's eyes I can hold on to that something we've got I can be strong, just strong enough for the two of us Into the shadows of love we go A familiar heartland at the edge of home On a long road I'll see you there Run, like the wind to my heart Don't stop, run to my world Run, to my mountain top Run baby run baby run baby run baby Run, don't stop, ooh run baby run, ooh run baby run Hold on to that fire burning flame of love Run yeah run Run to my world Run to my mountain top Run 'til you drop

The words of freedom on the tongue of a snake With a democratic face bought and paid for by the lies of the state Without a human trait well under the heels of a tyranny waits A long forgotten voice And revolution is the ultimate fate of the whip and the gun Nowhere to run is nothing like fun Out in the heat, Wild on the streets Wild on the streets, wild on the streets People listen to the words of a friend To lie you have to breath Television hey tell it again The people pay no heed We want equality but what do we get Bullets and ballots again Roll in your grave Beethoven and the death beat marches on Nowhere to run is nothing like fun Out in the heat, Wild on the streets Wild on the streets, wild on the streets On leather jackets and broken chain In walls of mortar and ties These are the words of our fate inscribed Standing twelve feet high Here are the free men who inherit the earth Here are the words that died Buried under six feet of dirt and the death beat marches on Nowhere to run is nothing like fun Out in the heat, Wild on the streets Wild on the streets, wild on the streets

Ever since school days I've walked a fool's way With no love to find me No dream to hide me No kindness inside this heart with a stone's kiss Just a short fall to the dawn, when you're walking on dead man's feet Down on Damnation street You got nobody's love Down on Damnation street We got nobody's love Walkin', Walkin', Walkin' Down on Damnation Street Did you ever have a chance of finding someone who needs you? This world has got itself And there's nothing for the likes of you and me Without love You'll try it, you'll buy it, you'll find it empty As a stones kiss Just like your date with Jesus When you're walking on dead man's feet Down on Damnation street You got nobody's love Down on Damnation street We got nobody's love Walkin', Walkin', Walkin' Down Better get on your knees Humility please Gotta pray to be free From the slavery of freedom Free to be nothing 21st Century here and now Then gone like a thief in the night Walkin' Damnation Street walking Walkin' Damnation Street walking Just goin' down, down, just going Down, just goin' down, down, just going Down down down on Damnation Street
