Enter Sandman

 

Say your prayers little one

don't forget, my son

to include everyone

 

tuck you in, warm within

keep you free from sin

till the sandman he comes

 

   sleep with one eye open

   gripping your pillow tight

 

      exit light

      enter night

      take my hand

      off to never never land

 

something's wrong, shut the light

heavy thoughts tonight

and they aren't of snow white

 

dreams of war, dreams of liars

dreams of dragon's fire

and of things that will bite

 

   sleep with one eye open

   gripping your pillow tight

     

      exit light

      enter night

      take my hand

      off to never never land

 

now I lay me down to sleep

pray the lord my soul to keep

if I die before I wake

pray the lord my soul to take

 

hush little baby, don't say a word

and never mind that noise you heard

it's just the beast under your bed,

in your closet, in your head

 

      exit light

      enter night

      grain of sand

 

      exit light

      enter night

      take my hand

      we're off to never never land

 

Sad But True

 

Hey

I'm your life

I'm the one who takes you there

hey

I'm your life

I'm the one who cares

they

they betray

I'm your only true friend now

they

they'll betray

I'm forever there

 

   I'm your dream, make you real

   I'm your eyes   when you must steal

   I'm your pain   when you can't feel

   sad but true

 

   I'm your dream, mind astray

   I'm your eyes   while you're away

   I'm your pain   while you repay

   you know it's sad but true

 

you

you're my mask

you're my cover, my shelter

you

you're my mask

you're the one who's blamed

do

do my work

do my dirty work, scapegoat

do

do my deeds

for you're the one who's shamed

 

   I'm your dream, make you real

   I'm your eyes   when you must steal

   I'm your pain   when you can't feel

   sad but true

 

   I'm your dream, mind astray

   I'm your eyes   while you're away

   I'm your pain   while you repay

   you know it's sad but true

 

hate

I'm your hate

I'm your hate when you want love

pay

pay the price

pay, for nothing's fair

 

hey

I'm your life

I'm the one who took you here

hey

I'm your life

and I no longer care

 

   I'm your dream, make you real

   I'm your eyes   when you must steal

   I'm your pain   when you can't feel

   sad but true

 

   I'm your truth, telling lies

   I'm your reasoned alibis

   I'm inside      open your eyes

   I'm you

 

   sad but true

 

Holier Than Thou

 

No more!

the craps rolls out your mouth again

haven't changed, your brain is still gelatin

little whispers circle around your head

why don't you worry about yourself instead

 

who are you? where ya been? where ya from?

gossip is burning on the tip of your tongue

you lie so much you believe yourself

judge not lest ye be judged yourself

 

   holier than thou

   you are

   holier than thou

   you are

 

   you know not

 

before you judge me take a look at you

can't you find somethig better to do

point the finger, slow to understand

arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand

 

it's not who you are it's who you know

others lives are the basis of your own

burn your bridges build them back with wealth

judge not lest ye be judged yourself

 

   holier than thou

   you are

   holier than thou

   you are

 

   you know not

 

The Unforgiven

 

New blood joins this earth

and quikly he's subdued

through constant pain disgrace

the young boy learns their rules

 

with time the child draws in

this whipping boy done wrong

deprived of all his thoughts

the young man struggles on and on he's known

a vow unto his own

that never from this day

his will they'll take away

 

    what I've felt

    what I've known

    never shined through in what I've shown

    never be

    never see

    won't see what might have been

 

    what I've felt

    what I've known

    never shined through in what I've shown

    never free

    never me

    so I dub thee unforgiven

 

they dedicate their lives

to running all of his

he tries to please them all

this bitter man he is

throughout his life the same

he's battled constantly

this fight he cannot win

a tired man they see no longer cares

the old man then prepares

to die regretfully

that old man here is me

 

    what I've felt

    what I've known

    never shined through in what I've shown

    never be

    never see

    won't see what might have been

 

    what I've felt

    what I've known

    never shined through in what I've shown

    never free

    never me

    so I dub the unforgiven

 

you labeled me

I'll label you

so I dub the unforgiven

 

Wherever I May Roam

 

...and the road becomes my bride

   I have stripped of all but pride

   so in her I do confide

   and she keeps me satisfied

   gives me all I need

 

...and with dust in throat I crave

   only knowledge will I save

   to the game you stay a slave

   rover     wanderer

   nomad     vagabond

   call me what you will

 

      but I'll take my time anywhere

      free to speak my mind anywhere

      and I'll redefine anywhere

         anywhere I may roam

         where I lay my head is home

 

...and the earth becomes my throne

   I adapt to the unknown

   under wandering stars I've grown

   by myself but not alone

   I ask no one

 

...and my ties are severed clean

   the less I have the more I gain

   off the beaten path I reign

   rover     wanderer

   nomad     vagabond

   call me what you will

 

      but I'll take my time anywhere

      I'm free to speak my mind anywhere

      and I'll never mind anywhere

         anywhere I may roam

         where I lay my head is home

 

      but i'll take my time anywhere

      free to speak my mind

      and I'll take my find anywhere

         anywhere I may roam

         where I lay my head is home

 

      carved upon my stone

      my body lie, but still I roam

         wherever I may roam

 

Don’t Tread On Me

 

Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail

once you provoke her, rattling of her tail

never begins it, never, but once engaged...

never surrenders, showing the fangs of rage

 

don't tread on me

 

    so be it

    threaten no more

    to secure peace is to prepare for war

    so be it

    settle the score

    touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore...

 

don't tread on me

 

love it or live it, she with the deadly bite

quick is the blue tongue, forked as lighting strike

shining with brightness, always on surveillance

the eyes, they never close, emblem of vigilance

 

don't tread on me

 

    so be it

    threaten no more

    to secure peace is to prepare for war

    so be it

    settle the score

    touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore...

 

don't tread on me

 

    so be it

    threaten no more

    to secure peace is to prepare for war

 

liberty or death, what we so proudly hail

once you provoke her, rattling on her tail

 

    so be it

    threaten no more

    to secure peace is to prepare for war

    so be it

    settle the score

    touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore...

 

don't tread on me

 

Though The Never

 

All that is, was and will be

universe much too big to see

 

time and space never ending

disturbing thoughts, questions pending

limitations of human understanding

too quick to criticize

obligation to survive

we hunger to be alive

 

    all that is, ever

    ever was

    will be ever

    twisting

    turning

    through the never

 

in the dark, see past our eyes

pursuit of trhuth no matter where it lies

 

gazing up to the breeze of the heavens

on a quest, meaning, reason

came to be, how it begun

all alone in the family of the sun

curiosity teasing everyone

on our home, third stone from the sun

 

    all that is, ever

    ever was

    will be ever

    twisting

    turning

    through the never

 

on through the never

we must go

on through the never

out of the

edge of forever

we must go

on through the never

then ever comes

 

    all that is, ever

    ever was

    will be ever

    who we are

    ask forever

    twisting

    turning

    through the never

 

    never

 

Nothing Else Matters

 

So close no matter how far

couldn't be much more from the heart

forever trusting who we are

and nothing else matters

 

never opened myself this way

life is ours, we live it our way

all these words I don't just say

and nothing else matters

 

trust I seek and I find in you

every day for us something new

open mind for a different view

and nothing else matters

 

    never cared for what they do

    never cared for what they know

    but I know

 

so close no matter how far

couldn't be much more from the heart

forever trusting who we are

and nothing else matters

 

    never cared for what they do

    never cared for what they know

    but I know

 

never opened myself this way

life is ours, we live it our way

all these words I don't just say

 

trust I seek and I find in you

every day for us something new

open mind for a different view

and nothing else matters

 

    never cared for what they say

    never cared for games they play

    never cared for what they do

    never cared for what they know

    and I know

 

so close no matter how far

couldn't be much more from the heart

forever trusting who we are

no nothing else matters

 

Of Wolf And Man

 

Off through the new day's mist I run

off from the new day's mist I have come

I hunt

therefore I am

harvest the land

taking of the fallen lamb

 

off thruogh the new day's mist I run

off from the new day'smist I have come

we shift

pulsing with the earth

company we keep

roaming the land while you sleep

 

   shape shift     nose to the wind

   shape shift     feeling I've been

   move swift      all senses clean

   earth's gift    back to the meaning of life

 

bright is the moon high in starlight

chill is the air cold as steel tonight

we shift

call of the wild

fear in your eyes

it's later than you realized

 

   shape shift     nose to the wind

   shape shift     feeling I've been

   move swift      all senses clean

   earth's gift    back to the meaning of life

 

I feel I change

back to a better day

hair stands on the back of my neck

in wildness is the preservation of the world

 

so seek the wolf in thyself

 

   shape shift     nose to the wind

   shape shift     feeling I've been

   move swift      all senses clean

   earth's gift

   back to the meaning of wolf and man

 

The God That Failed

 

Pride you took

pride you feel

pride that you felt when you'd kneel

 

not the word

not the love

not what you thought from above

 

   it feeds

   it grows

   it clouds all that you will know

   deceit

   deceive

   decide just what you believe

 

     I see faith in your eyes

     never your hear the discouraging lies

     I hear faith in your cries

     broken is the promise, betrayal

     the healing hand held back by the deepened nail

 

     follow the god that failed

 

find your peace

find your say

find the smooth road in your way

 

trust you gave

a child to save

left you cold and him in grave

 

   it feeds

   it grows

   it clouds all that you will know

   deceit

   deceive

   decide just what you believe

 

     I see faith in your eyes

     never you hear the discouraging lies

     I hear faith in your cries

     broken is the promise, betrayal

     the healing hand held back by the deepened nail

 

     follow the god that failed

 

     I see faith in your eyes

     broken is the promise, betrayal

     the healing hand held back by the deepened nail

 

     follow the god that failed

 

pride you took

pride you feel

pride that you felt when you'd kneel

 

trust you gave

a child to save

left you cold and him in grave

 

     I see faith in your eyes

     never you hear the discouraging lies

     I hear faith in your cries

     broken is the promise, betrayal

     the healing hand held back by deepened nail

 

     follow the god that failed

 

My Friend Of Misery

 

You just stood there screaming

fearing no one was listening to you

they say the empty can rattles the most

the sound of your voice must soothe you

hearing only what you want to hear

and knowing only what you've heard

you    you're smothered in tragedy

you're out to save the world

 

    misery

    you insist that the weight of the world

    should be on your shoulders

    misery

    there's much more to life than what you see

    my friend of misery

 

you still stood there screaming

no one caring about these words you tell

my friend before your voice is gone

one man's fun is another's hell

these times are sent to try men's souls

but something's wrong with all you see

you    you'll take it on all yourself

remember, misery loves company

 

    misery

    you insist that the weight of the world

    should be on your shoulders

    misery

    there's much more to life than what you see

    my friend of misery

 

you just stood there creaming

my friend of misery

 

The Struggle Within

 

Reaching out for something you've got to feel

while clutching to what you had thought was real

 

kicking at a dead horse pleases you

no way of showing your gratitude

so many things you don't want to do

what is it? what have you got ot lose

 

what the hell

what is you think you're gonna find?

hypocrite

boredom sets into the boring mind

 

    struggle within   it suits you fine

    struggle within   your ruin

    struggle within   you seal your own coffin

    struggle within   the struggling within

 

home is not a home it becomes a hell

turning it into your prison cell

advantages are taken, not handed out

while you struggle inside your hell

 

reaching out

grabbing for something tou've got to feel

closing in

the pressure upon you is so real

 

    struggle within   it suits you fine

    struggle within   your ruin

    struggle within   you seal your own coffin

    struggle within   the struggling within

 

reaching out for something you've got to feel

while clutching to what you had thought was real

what the hell

 

what is you think you're gonna find

hypocrite

boredom sets into the boring mind

 

    struggle within   it suits you fine

    struggle within   your ruin

    struggle within   you seal your own coffin

    struggle within   the struggling within
