Brimstone Blues

Between the ebb and the flow My mind gets twisted With the touch and the go My world gets wasted away Between the rain and the snow It's a blind illusion At the end of the road I'm hoping to find me again CRAWLING OUT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD WANTING TO MEET YOU ALL THE VOICES IN MY HEAD WANTING TO BEAT YOU DOWN With the turn of the world Tides are rising With all that I know I'm crying for yesterday With the ebb and the flow Life is fading And sooner than you would know It's time to burn you away CRAWLING OUT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD WANTING TO MEET YOU ALL THE VOICES IN MY HEAD WANTING TO BEAT YOU DOWN All life is destined to corode The price we pay for sins our own The blind don't wanna find their way The world don't wanna be saved CRAWLING OUT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD THEY'RE COMING ALL THE VOICES IN MY HEAD THEY'RE COMING TO BEAT YOU DOWN TO BREAK YOU DOWN

She's calling back her summer By the voice on the breeze She told me summer's searching for her groom Where all the rivers flow Drowning her in the colors of her bloom You know that she really should have Come around a little sooner Cos the echos on the wind they tell That you should know just as well The chill that's in the air it knows That my baby's kept the fires warm DON'T YOU KNOW SHE'S MY COSMIC DANCER The short little ladies are telling me The old man is coming With a sickle in his hand To take up all that grows Drowning her in the colors of her bloom You know that she really should have Come around a little sooner Cos the echos on the wind they tell That you should know just as well The chill that's in the air it knows That my baby's kept the fires warm DON'T YOU KNOW SHE'S MY COSMIC DANCER The echos on the wind they tell That all is really not that well And you should know just as well My baby don't kiss and tell DON'T YOU KNOW SHE'S MY COSMIC DANCER

Blind man can't see the sign of the cross Just down the road Poor man don't understand That the cost is gonna be his soul All his life he questions why And takes the name of the Lord in vain You think by now he'd have realized Why he's losing at the game (Why he's losing at the game And it's driving him insane) Rich man don't give a damn About the beggars he turns away All he owns is a sleight if hand Saving up for his judgement day He'd be wise to realize that his soul can still be saved So thank God that you're still alive And you've still got time today (Yeah you still got time today So don't throw it all away) IT'S ONE STOP DOWN THAT ROAD JUST SO THAT YOU KNOW ONE STOP DOWN THAT ROAD DOWN THAT COBBLESTONE ROAD Some dead men go to heaven Most dead men go to hell All dead men live forever And this dead man never tells IT'S ONE STOP DOWN THAT ROAD JUST SO THAT YOU KNOW ONE STOP DOWN THAT ROAD DOWN THAT COBBLESTONE ROAD

The look on your face is giving you away And any pretense you might have Can't lie behind complacent eyes Cus I can see what it meant Lost your life, lost your soul Lost everything that you ever had owned Down the hole with nothing close to anything That'd put meat on the bone YOU WON'T LIVE TO TELL THE TALE ABOUT A MAN WHO DIED SO SAD AND TRAGIC MAN SO DAMN BEFORE YOUR TIME YOU'RE A TRAGEDY MAN Now the feelings growing like an embryo Heavy labour with fear Feels like heaven has shut the door on everyone And damnation is here Man you'd live again if it would help you And live your life like a saint But damn, it's over and no one's gonna help you In that firey lake YOU WON'T LIVE TO TELL THE TALE ABOUT A MAN WHO DIED SO SAD AND TRAGIC MAN SO DAMN BEFORE YOUR TIME YOU'RE A TRAGEDY MAN

Out on the beaches that hem them seven seas There comes old Lady Luck wisping by the trees Tells me a story that is heavy to my ears Said wasted time is up boy, time to face them fears Looking back on this life it didn't mean a thing Cos all I ever had were the wages of my sins Never thought I'd see the day that it all went up Good God in heaven am I really out of luck NO NO NO, WHERE THERE IS SMOKE THERE'S A FIRE YEAH YEAH YEAH, AND THOSE FLAMES ARE RISING HIGHER Won't get no second chance, can't ride for free And once you're done you know you're history Down on the other side what will you say When thoughts of heaven go up burning in that flame Thoughts of heaven go burning up in your flame And thoughts of heaven are driving you insane NO NO NO, WHERE THERE IS SMOKE THERE'S A FIRE YEAH YEAH YEAH, AND THOSE FLAMES ARE RISING HIGHER In the blinking of an eye Crawling up to kiss the sky NO NO NO, WHERE THERE IS SMOKE THERE'S A FIRE YEAH YEAH YEAH, AND THOSE FLAMES ARE RISING HIGHER

Astral beings fly on telepathic highways Am I blind? Cos I can't see what you see Your demons must've took you for a ride And all the times That you've come and gone You still don't seem to know What's going on I'VE GOT THIS PREMONITION AND IT JUST WON'T GO AWAY I'VE BEEN CONFUSED FOR ALL MY LIFE WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH STONEHENGE ANYWAY? Your UFO just arrived with armies of small green men Out of sight Spirit travel's left you high and dry With questions out of mind And all the times That you've come and gone You still don't seem to know What's going on I'VE GOT THIS PREMONITION AND IT JUST WON'T GO AWAY I'VE BEEN CONFUSED FOR ALL MY LIFE WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH STONEHENGE ANYWAY? You say you know Jesus Christ Well I say you nothing about God Your truth is out there Somewhere between the heavens and the stars And all the times That you've come and gone You still don't seem to know What's right and wrong I'VE GOT THIS PREMONITION AND IT JUST WON'T GO AWAY I'VE BEEN CONFUSED FOR ALL MY LIFE WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH STONEHENGE ANYWAY?

Out in the twilight hall Where the wind begins to shine Calling out the maiden voyage Out on the brink of space and time A solitary beacon stands For the ships a guiding light All of those who strayed from home Now await to get it right IF LIMBO DOES EXIST WELL THEN I WANNA KNOW WILL I BE HERE FOREVER WON'T I PAY THE TOLL IN MY LIMBONIC VOID CALLING LIMBO Drifting to where no one knows I just hope we'll make it fine Asteriods and laser beams Spread the view before our eyes If this here is all there is Then I hope I'll lose my mind Always chose the shades of grey Now I'd die for black or white IF LIMBO DOES EXIST WELL THEN I WANNA KNOW WILL I BE HERE FOREVER WON'T I PAY THE TOLL IN MY LIMBONIC VOID CALLING LIMBO

There came a misty morning Out on the shores of time And I heard the sirens calling There was nowhere left to hide I never should've gone out this far I never should have gone out at all OH YEAH, SO GLAD TO SEE HOW YOU'VE COME AROUND THE BEND I TOLD YOU WE'D MEET NOW AT THE JOURNEY'S END (How we'd meet in the end...) Now treading the silent oceans And the tides that seem to glow With deadly premonition Telling us it's time to go Never should've trusted the reaper When he told me I could keep you OH YEAH, SO GLAD TO SEE HOW YOU'VE COME AROUND THE BEND I TOLD YOU WE'D MEET NOW AT THE JOURNEY'S END And if that you could leave I think you surely would And if that you could see I think you'd understood A face of silver lining The season no one knows The day we are approaching Will reckon to our souls How many will lose in the end How many will die in their sins OH YEAH, SO GLAD TO SEE HOW YOU'VE COME AROUND THE BEND I TOLD YOU WE'D MEET NOW AT THE JOURNEY'S END

It's a bad situation That you just can't seem to lose Damn the anticipation The kind that feeds the blues I'VE COME AROUND THE SUN I'VE BEEN AROUND THE MOON AND I STILL CAN'T SHAKE THOSE POSTMORTEM BLUES It's a crazy situation My sky is falling down Here's my resignation Last train is leaving town I'VE COME AROUND THE SUN I'VE BEEN AROUND THE MOON AND I STILL CAN'T SHAKE THOSE POSTMORTEM BLUES Don't ever say I didn't warn you Of the day you'd lose it all There's millions of out there baby Freezing in the cold I told you once, I told you twice A thousand times and you still don't know So now's the time to pay the price You're dying twice and it cost your soul Postmortem comes for you
