You slid your hand underneath mine
Our fingers, hearts oh so entwined
But how time quickly passes by
Our fingers, hearts soon came apart
Love escaped us like the setting sun
Our fingers, hearts in darkness came undone
Love is a setting sun
Love escaped us like a setting sun
Our love in darkness came undone

You left your home
Your mother, father, sons, and daughters
How does it feel to be alone
Unwelcome stranger, unknown?
They're working your hands down to the bone
And still you have nothing to call your own
The dream they boast about isn't for you
No, it's isn't for you
They don't give a shit about you
They don't give a shit about you
In 1848 you became a foreigner overnight
In 1848 you became a foreigner overnight
And now it's your turn to mine for gold
And now it's your turn to mine for gold

A Different Heav'n

Banished from paradise
Cast into a lake of fire
My vengeful wrath will soon transpire
I can see a flaw in your creation, dear god
No man can withstand the powers of temptation
I’m the serpent slithering nearby
Wrapping my body around trees that feed
The hungry
The poor
The wild
The blind
The Adams
The Eves
The saints
The sinners
The hunger in everyone
“The mind is its own place,
and in itselt can make a heav’n of hell,
a hell of heav’n”

Oh, tu voz resuena como canción
En lo mas profundo de mí corazón
Y a pesar de que ya no estás aquí
Siempre te siento a mí alrededor
Oh, tus dulces ojos son la luz
En los rincones de mí corazón
Y a pesar de que ya no estas aquí
Siempre te siento a mí alrededor

The Devil's Black Wool

Sweet, aimless wander
Unafraid, far away
From sacred pastures
Years have gone by
You’re looking quite well, though a little haggard
Glad to be away from a hateful herd
Who spew words that always aim to hurt
You’re just a lone sheep covered in the devil’s black wool,
strolling towards a place that’s eternal, that's eternally cruel
You’re just a lone sheep covered in the devil’s black wool,
strolling towards a place that’s eternal, that's eternally cruel
Oh, what a shame it is
that you’re so far away
Oh, what a shame it is
that you’re so far away
I found what I wanted
Found what I needed
Without you, Lord
I found what I wanted
Found what I needed
Without you, Lord

Oh no it's not love
Unless we're both in it, darling
And though you’re alone tonight
I can’t be the person to always fill your void when he's gone
We both know it’s temporary
So trade your deceitful guilt for the convenience in words that Wilde uttered,
“Those who are faithless know the pleasures of love;
it is the faithful that know love’s tragedies”
It was a cold summer night
When we first traded playful glances
And with our drinks in hand
All our inhibitions slipped right off us
And we fucked all night long
While our adulterous shadows defiled the purity of your bedroom walls
After the fervor of the night
With the thrill your body incites
I feel indifferent at your sight
Our shadows gone in morning light
Darling, I can’t be the one to
Always fill your void when he’s not around
I know it’s not fair
But darling, I will never love you the way you need me to
No, I will never love you
So please just go

Stone Castles

Throne made of gold,
Diamonds, and pearls
No king lives forever
Weaponry, armor,
Mighty stone castle
No king lives forever
Royal rivals threaten
With tongues of rancor
No king lives forever
They’re hungry for power
Thirsty for war
No king lives forever
Your kingdom, their target
Missiles soon will soar
No king lives forever
Forced into battle
You reach for your sword
No king lives forever
You lead your men
Into the battlefront
(The front)
Through ground that will soon be covered in blood
(Your blood)
You lead your men
Into the battlefront
(The front)
Through ground that will soon be covered in blood
(Your blood)
They fire first
Bullet through your heart
Their hearts
You lay helpless on enemy ground,
Unsound
They fire first
Bullet through your heart
Their hearts
You lay lifeless on enemy ground,
Uncrowned
Sleep soundly now, wretched king
They tricked you into battle
No king, no king lives forever
