Curious Volume

Talking about the last night Thinking about the next show You can stick around but I ain’t gonna go Maybe you’re proud bout the games You’ve been teaching But you shouldn’t be preaching There’s too much you don’t know You’re a backstreet crawler Nothing left to the eye Won’t ya move out of here Baby, lay down and die I ain’t no starter When it comes to makin love But when our hearts got parted “and the grace from above” You should of thought harder For the damage was done But if you’re gonna have your fun I’ll let ya think that you’re one I still love you baby Though I know it ain’t wise But still the tears fear my eyes Baby, lay down and die!! Oh my oh my!!! Talking about the last night Thinking about the next show You can stick around but I ain’t gonna go Maybe you’re proud bout the games You’ve been teaching But you shouldn’t be preaching There’s too much you don’t know You’re a backstreet crawler Nothing left to the eye Won’t ya move out of here Baby, lay down and die

There’s a war that’s a burnin inside And it’s eating you You can’t win and you cannot fight And can’t afford to lose You wander round can’t be restrained Can’t be subdued Tried to shackle and tried to chain But the legion grew Day and night in the concrete hills You cut and bleed with stone Got you down with your face on the ground Time to overthrow Many try but they turn and fail Say what can faith undo By the hand of the chosen one The legion pigs were slew Mercy on the broken man Demons die unfree Tempter push, stick the needle in But bruised head will bleed Host of wicked powers of the air roam to and fro Steal and kill, destroyer of your soul Now the war that was burnin inside Are dying embers in you The demons fled and the books been read Give nothing to the devil’s due Mercy on the broken man Demons die unfree Tempter push, stick the needle in But bruised head will bleed

Been here too long to have the time to spare I’ve walked down many roads to despair Day by day my flesh and pride must die Lust of my eyes tempt my mind to fly How many days have passed, How many more can I last The broken dreams I’ve known, Circles of madness are gone But I press on Won’t be condemned Take up my cross Dead bury dead Above the stains remains a joy inside While a world out there seeks to break my stride Like a dove descends and shoulders the wind Not one will be lost from the hand that gives To transcend these days, I’d be on my way Singing my final song in the light beyond But I press on Won’t be condemned I take up my cross Dead bury dead

Sometimes the way you neglect things Brings me to the finish of the rope I let some of em slide but some I just can’t hide Maybe soon you’ll see my words ain’t no joke You know I’ll drive if you make me after all been said You never dump thundercloud hangin on your head Look at where my caution light flickers up to red You think it’s bad just out of work well it’s probably worse dead ---- yea ???? Everything’s fine and if it revolves around you And although times have to change in you is nothing new Some get high pursuing their joys flying through the night It’s time to see your plane will crash On the earthflight

I can only see myself in broken mirrors My voice sings of sorrow, will it ever get clear Another day I roam and walk alone Feeling the pain in force, how it claws at me Keeps runnin its course trying to break my strength Another day I roam and walk alone Life without my past is where my future exists Time bleeds in my wounds, but by god I resist Another day I roam and walk alone Give to misery my final tears And cherish my goal of life won’t disappear Another day I roam and walk alone Darkness of days have been cold Winter skies are laced with shadows Tear down these walls that bring me sorrow Give me the hope that makes me stronger

Facing toward the harsh wind blowing Of dreams growing in my youth The rich and poor of masses telling Seek for security Gather treasure and store away This will bring you joy and peace But like the grass that withers daily Moths and rust pursue like thieves Review your choice and the path you follow For the kings of the earth will see They’ll seek your pride and your will to comply Send you to war for their precious greed So you hunger for a different way Your ears have heard of this curious life In this venture death waits in the shadows But in survival the volume won’t die Many choose but few are chosen Slice through dark and patterns of light The calling voice rings ever clear A curious volume sustains and revives So you hunger for a different way Your ears have heard of this curious life In this venture death waits in the shadows But in survival the volume won’t die The volume won’t die, yeah!

You play with my heart, you play with my head The feelings you show, I think you wish I were dead Now you wanna have your fun and run around all night And then you crawl back to me and honey that ain’t right You say you love me, I’m your only man But things you do I don’t understand Love I want it’ll never come Cause you’re nothing but a liar and it’s time to run Misunderstood You play with my heart, you play with my head I don’t give a damn bout the things you said One thing I know, I know enough is enough I’ll never trust you and I’m calling your bluff Pack your bags baby hit the door Never wanna see your face no more Time has come to say our good-byes Along with the heartache and all of your lies Misunderstood You play with my heart, you play with my head I don’t give a damn bout the things you said You wanna have your fun and run around all night And you crawl back to me and honey that ain’t right Pack your bags baby hit the door Never wanna see your face no more Love with you it’ll never come Nothing but a liar and it’s time to run Misunderstood

These times try hard to drag me down But where I’ve been I’ve learned to abound Well if I fall, that’s not all For the love above has answered my call My body shows age beyond its years And underneath these scars are a billion tears Through the eye of a needle that I’ve passed through By the love above that never withdrew The black passed away now my night is day I close the casket on the old man’s ways And now I see through the eyes that were blind And close the casket as the old man dies Been so far, been so near High as the sun and dead to fear But glitter ain’t gold in every dream And the choice you make breathes eternally The black passed away now my night is day I close the casket on the old man’s ways And now I see through the eyes that were blind And close the casket as the old man dies

I say I’m suffering I’ve got to have you right now But look what happens to us everyday There’s someone tryin to tell us that we can’t play I sure need music get me on my way ????? You’re still my lover but I’ve got to say I’ve been sufferin --- yea I’ve got to have you right now I’ve been knocking around with all the other kids I’ve got no place to go I’ve been working all of this useless shit When I ought to be on the road I’m suffering I need you right now I’m suffering Please baby I gotta have you right now Better come around and see me baby You know I’m all bummed out I wish the record man would sign me up I just want to jump and shout I’m suffering You know I need you right now I’m suffering I’ve got to have you right now I’ve got ta, I’ve got ta I’ve got to have you right now

All thoughts wet gray and ugly my mind misunderstood I see the wind rip through me I’d feel it if I could Wake some days and feel like life is not for me I hold my head low and slowly fall down to my knees Venom inside, unconscious seed Laughing obscenely it’s telling me My head’s on fire and all I see Is this black sky Shake in desperation I jump at every sound Throw my face into my hands My body’s hit the ground How can this all be over, where will I go from here My mind’s creation, Suffering revelations writhe around in fear Venom inside a poison seed Laughing obscenely it sickens me My head’s on fire now I see My life a lie Ravaging decay in the face of the living, Piece of rotting slow, drifting, Hiding, hungry, weak and aging man ......please help me up from this place I’ve been Each moment I’m here, I’m in too deep And I die a little more My mind was blind but now I see The devil inside was a poison seed Can’t kill my soul, only deceive Brought back to life and now I’m free My life is alive……..

As I look up life’s long lonely tracks I’ve realized there is no turning back The glimmers of the hopes I had have faded No peace now it is true because I’ve made it My fantasies are gone all things have stopped Engulfed or just confused no cold or hot The love I’ve had for life has badly faded In brightness or in dark, I’ve turned to shaded The spark of life is gone because I’ve made it No peace now it is true because I’ve made it The story meets the end of how I hate it No peace now this is true No time for me and you The colors all turn blue Oh how I hate it My limits overdue And now it’s come true The pain is almost through Because I made it I hate it Now I’ve made it I hate it I’ve made it
