I was counting other's blessings, movement through the soul
(movement through the soul, movement through the soul)
Sons and daughters, holy waters, make my blood run cold
(make my blood run cold, make my blood run...)
Sun is born on the horizon, flaked with shades of gold
(flaked with shades of gold, flaked with shades of gold)
Faces drawn of silent strangers, that you'll never know
(that you'll never know, never)
Don't ask for the sun, what a dangerous melody
Don't be surprised when the devil he
He shows up at your door, leaves you asking for more
What a dangerous universe, yeah you making your own curse
Yeah you making your own curse, yeah you making your own
People sing their godly praises (ha ha ha, le le le, lu lujah)
Miracles the man amazes, but they don't do nothing to ya
Filling up the empty spaces, poison drinks, imbibing witch's brew yeah
Newer times in older places, notice how time stands still
Don't ask for the sun, what a dangerous melody
Don't be surprised when the devil he
He shows up at your door, leaves you asking for more
What a dangerous universe, yeah you making your own curse
Yeah you making your own curse, yeah you making your own
When they call you, can you hear it?
Voices raised, incense burns, stars that rule ya
Rituals that soothe the spirit, trickster gods when they learn how to fool ya
When you go, no need to fear it- natural apathy does that to ya
Realize you are so near it, notice how time stands still
Don't ask for the sun, what a dangerous melody
Don't be surprised when the devil he
He shows up at your door, leaves you asking for more
What a dangerous universe, yeah you making your own curse
Yeah you making your own curse, yeah you making your own

Cemetery Song

Heed my philosophy, cuz I was born in a cemetery
I was born in a cemetery, ain't no grave can hold me down
Evil dichotomy, and I was born in a cemetery
When you're born in a cemetery, your whole family's in the ground
Heed my sweet intonation: life is overrated
Feed my great elevation, time is almost faded
Heed my sweet intonation: life is overrated
Feed my great elevation, time is almost faded
Come and then you will see that I was born in a cemetery
I was born in a cemetery, my heart's six feet underground
All underneath my feet, and I was born in a cemetery
When you're born in a cemetery, ain't no grave can hold you down
Heed my sweet intonation: life is overrated
Feed my great elevation, time is almost faded
Heed my sweet intonation: life is overrated
Feed my great elevation, time is almost faded
Be doo be doo be doo be da ba ba
the secrets and the lies you want to bury
Be doo be da ba ba, we got them here down at the cemetery
Be doo be da ba ba, you must admit the atmosphere is scary
Be doo be da ba ba, the ghosts are near down at the cemetery
People be who they be when they are born in a cemetery
When you're born in a cemetery, it's true life can hit you hard
Dying's a certainty, but it's true death is not that scary
But then who am I to say, cuz I was born in a graveyard
Heed my sweet intonation: life is overrated
Feed my great elevation, time is almost faded
Heed my sweet intonation: life is overrated
Feed my great elevation, time is almost faded

Running out in the height of the war into no-man's-land screaming 'hold your fire'
Like you know it's the end of the world and you can't really handle a substitute
Lying flat with our back to the skies and the stars in our eyes could we get much higher
My reflection is changing around; take a good look at me, and it's really you
Love and devotion, what a mythology
Hold your emotion, I still don't feel sorry
Waste your time, telling me what you feel 'bout the rest of the world is overrated
Not an answer, you don't know what those three words do
You forget all the things that you thought and the ways you were taught cuz your pride inflated
You don't mean to, but you do
Love and devotion, what a mythology
Hold your emotion, I still don't feel sorry
It's a shame that the hardest of times seem to bring out the best and the worst in people
Can't remember just how many times I been stuck in my mind sayin' what's the use
Who's to blame that the state of the world and the people within it are so unequal
There's an answer, you won't like it, that's the truth
Love and devotion, what a mythology
Hold your emotion, I still don't feel sorry
Love and devotion
Hold your emotion

Oh, my heart is heavy with the weight of world on my shoulders
You can't let me carry on like Sisyphus
Boulders pushing forward on an insurmountable mountain
Move toward us, like a river rushing or fountain
I can see you, calling out to me over oceans
I'm not near you, though I'm still consumed by the notion
Of your beauty, as I face you in my dreams
It's my duty to become more than I seem
(Yeah, to become more than I seem, to become more)
How is it you know me, though we've never met before
Thought that you could show me what it is I'm searching for
Or is that misguided, am I too reliant
For how is it I love you, with my soul so quiet
Can you hear me, calling out to you over oceans
You may be dreaming, these are strange geographies, notions
I am open, I have nothing left to lose
Though we're broken, we are still whole if we choose
As we are becoming more
As we are becoming more
Becoming more
As we are becoming...

Devil's Witness

Woke up next to the devil one morning
Eyes were fiery and red like the sun
I woke up next to the devil one morning
Kissed me sweetly, it tasted like rum
I'll never sin again
I'll never sin again
Tried to convince myself I was dreaming
I repent for the things I have done
Open mouthed I was wide-eyed and screaming
Oh the devil, he merely looked on
I'll never sin again
I'll never sin again
Don't deny me, the devil he whispered
For I see in your soul what you want
Well, the devil's a mighty good kisser
He's persuasive with word and with tongue
I'm sinnin' once again
I'm sinnin' once again
Well the devil's kiss is sweet as his touch is
Making certain that you kiss and you tell
With your tender soul in his evil cluthches
He will pull you to the depths of his hell
I'll never sin again
I'll never sin again
Oh you women of fire and of fountain
Heed the lesson in what I have said
Your children's children will know my recounting
Of when I took the devil to bed
I'll never sin again
I'll never sin again
