Been A Long Time

Been A Long Time


The death, the lies, in lies the truth
All that it is, what was, ain't true
I was down but now I can see
The pain, the hurt, the misery

Oh lord, it's been a long time
Doing my best I'll try and get it next time

This cross you bare I've come to carry for you
This cross you bare I've come to break it in two
I was down but now I can see
The pain, the hurt, the misery

Dirt On The Grave

Dirt On The Grave


Ashes fly ashes burn
The sun is black ain't no return
Ashes fly ashes burn
Over and over ain't no need to learn

It's all dust on dust
It's all you and me
Out done completely out played
Just shovel some more dirt on the grave

The choices you make and the choices that are
When hell is so close and heavens so far
Ashes fly ashes burn
Over and over ain't no need to learn

I Never Dreamed

I Never Dreamed


[Lynyrd Skynyrd Cover]

My father told me always be strong son
Don't you ever cry
You find the pretty girls and then you love them
Then you say goodbye
I never dreamed that you would leave me
But now you're gone
I never dreamed that I would miss you
Woman won't you come back home

I never dreamed that you could hurt me
And leave me blue
I've had a thousand, maybe more
But never one like you
I never dreamed I could feel so empty
But now I'm down
I never dreamed that I would beg you
Woman I need you now

It seems to me I took your love for granted
It feels to me that this time I was wrong, so wrong
Oh Lord now I feel so lonely
I say woman won't you come back home

I tried to do what my father taught me
But I think he knew
Someday that I would find one woman like you
I never dreamed that it could feel so good, Lord
That two could be one
I never knew about sweet love, Lord
So woman won't you come back home
Oh baby won't you come back home

Concrete Jungle

Concrete Jungle


The freaks in the streets
The nuns with shotguns
The graves rolling by your side
Survival of the fittest
And there ain't no pity
No one gets out alive
In the Concrete Jungle
It's the well of the damned
Step onside and you'll understand
Misfits, psychos and the twisted slaves
The house of the same
No one can be saved

Rolling six feet under
Rolling six feet under
Roll and keep on rolling

No one gets out
They're ready to die once again
No one gets out
They're ready to die

Another day to bleed
Another day to die
Another day to blackout and then go blind
Maniacal blitzkrieged
Where the maggots play God
Where the souls of the lost come to die
The Concrete Jungle
It's the well of the damned
Step inside and you'll understand
Misfits, psychos and the twisted slaves
The house of the same
No one can be saved

Rolling six feet under
Rolling six feet under
Roll and keep on rolling

No one gets out
They're ready to die once again
No one gets out
They're ready to die

Warped mind
Tripped out

Blacked Out World

Blacked Out World


There is no rationale, nothing is real
There is no sympathy when one cannot feel
Distorted mirrors, you see yourself
Trapped in your nightmares
Nothing els

Blacked Out in this Blacked Out World

Architect Of hate
Creator of doom
Upon the wings of destruction
Will be there soon
Commit your final suicide
Your final act
Last show of atrocity
Ain't no coming back

Blacked Out in this Blacked Out World

The Last Goodbye

The Last Goodbye


Take me down this road
I've been down here once before
Take me down this road
Once again, never again, forever more
Take me down this road
Once more

Take this love
Take this life
Take this blood
It'll never die

Take this love
Take this life
Take this blood
It'll never die

This ain't the last goodbye

Take me down this road
Just to see the smile on your face
Take me down this road
All that is and that was can't be replaced
Take me down this road
Once more

Take this love
Take this life
Take this blood
It'll never die

Take this love
Take this life
Take this blood
It'll never die

This ain't the last goodbye

Give Yourself To Me

Give Yourself To Me


Give yourself to me
For only then you will see
For I am the skies up above
Beneath and everything in between
These oceans which harbor your sadness
These rivers which carry your pain
Give yourself to me
For only then you will see
You will see

Give yourself to me

I was here before the beginning
I'll be here after the end
Search yourself, you'll believe
For only then you will see
You will see

Give yourself to me

Nothing's The Same

Nothing's The Same



Lost again and all alone
Lost again for I should have known
So many scars, so many times I've died
Another good-bye

Crash and burn
Refused to learn
Your only friend inside the scars that never mend
This trips inside the dark
The never ending rain
Kill the past
Nothing's the same
Nothing's the same

All the faces I once knew now are gone
Days turn into years rolling on
So many storms
So many times I have died
Another good-bye

Hell Is High

Hell Is High


Hell is high
So am I
A junkie's rush, flying across the sky
A million miles an hour
No, it ain't enough
Machine gun mind and a junkie's rush

Life is good
Life is fine
Pull the trigger one more time

Hell is high
And you all know
When the pedal hits the floor it's time to roll
A million miles an hour
No, it ain't enough
Machine gun mind and a junkie's rush

Life is good
Life is fine
Pull the trigger one more time

Hell is high
And so are you
Take a look in the mirror
Yeah, you know its true
A million miles an hour
No, it ain't enough
Machine gunmind and a junkie's rush

Life is good
Life is fine
Pull the trigger one more time
