Deadboy

Deadboy,
They'll never be,
Another one who dreams like you.
Deadboy,
I'll never be,
A devil in disguise to you.
I can't sleep,
When I think of you.
Nightmare screams,
That haunt me too.
I can't sleep,
Since I met you.
The devil inside,
Came out of me,
As I screamed...
The rage I had,
I should have been dead.
I was blind to see,
The white plastic soul,
In front of me.

The Sign

Down in the hole under the water,
Lies that king snake's burnt father.
A place where the bayou bends,
A place where the blues begins.
The sign at the end of the road,
Says you've reached the end of the world
Die, serpent, die.
Die, dragon, die.

Snake Bitten

I was snake bitten...

Forgetting myself again.

That poisoned fruit,

Crept into my veins,

Drove me insane,

Whose to blame?

Belly of the snake,

Filled with men's bones,

You can hear them moan,

Like rattles of a chain.

Broken From The Start

I sit here alone 

By the telephone

My soul awaits

until my spirit breaks...

I've stayed up at night

I've cried and I've cried

I've wanted to die

But still my spirit waits...

Longing for the touch of your hand

Dreaming of my time to make a stand

Hoping for a new start with your heart

Knowing we've been broken from the start

Building A Temple

When the Blessed One came,
I was only to blame,
For the wretchedness,
In my soul.
I heard him proclaim,
Victory, no shame,
For the Forgiveness,
Of my soul.
I'm Building a Temple,
In my Heart.
For Him to dwell,
That's where it starts.

Drowning Her Misery

She comes into the room with a heart of misery

I light my cigarette as she walks up to me

I look into her eyes and see her black soul

I kiss her on the lips like fire on the coals

I look into her eyes again and see

A heart of gold that drowned that misery

A life of pain is all she ever knew

Rolling through this rock as I sing her these blues

She smiles so sweet when we first meet

Now she has a soul and we are complete

The fire I gave her burns deep inside

She has no more fear and no longer has to hide

Drowning Her Misery

With the Fire Inside of Me

 

Black Dawn Rising

Down the Bayou I start to get away,
The devil has turned his wrath on me today.
The black dawn rises for me today,
He spent two dollars to have me blown away.
I jump right in,
Let this tango begin.
How far to go,
To the Gulf of Mexico.
By Midnight it seems,
I got away clean.
That black dawn rises
When I start again
Black Dawn Rising...

Blood In The Bayou

The cool wind blows across the bayou tonight
The sunlit moon cast her glow across this night
Shadows of spirits roaming amidst the mass
The fog settles as the tide of blood moves in

Roux-Ga-Roux
I can hear you sing these blues
Roux-Ga-Roux

Howl tonight on this blood bayou
Transform your dance under the stars
I see your black soul in the scar's of their hearts
You pulled them in the cold water below
Filling this bayou with blood as you go
I

Found My Heart

I lost my heart on an open road
Then you found it for me
You make you own luck
So I been told
I've been gone way too long
Can you find me so far away?
I sing a song since you've been gone
Can you hear me so far away?
My heart fell into the dirt
And then you found it for me

The Shining Son

When all there's left is a dim memory

When Babylon falls and all are in misery

There's nothing left but dust and air

The world's light can't compare

To the shining son

The only one

Whoever is and was

And yet still to come

Haunting My Heart

Such a trivial thing
Such a burden to sing
The weight of your love
Upon my weary shoulders
Trapped inside
This ghost of a mind
Looking for the evening sun
Praying that the day is done
Inside the blues
I will try not to lose
Your heart again

Black Moon Rising

Way down here on the Bayou

The bones of the wretched dance

When will you learn

That drinking blood is a sweet romance

Haunting the streets of New Orleans

Under the Midnight Black Moon

Eclipse my heart again

As the Howlin' Wolf begins to swoon

Mississippi Gost Queen 

Callin' all her riders

Black Moon Risin'

So light the fires...
Black Moon Risin' tonight

Letting Go

I'm letting go
Of the dream I once had
I'm letting go
Of the hopes in my head
I'm letting go
It's better left unsaid

I'm not the man I used to be
But still I feel this guilt in me
I broke your heart many time before
Now it's time to close that door
