Today as I was walking
In the fields just down the way
I sat down on a fallen log
To pass the time away
And as I looked around me
The more that I did look
the more I realize that I am viewing
God's coloring book
I saw a golden ray of sunlight
A silver drop of dew
A soft, white floating cloud
Sailing cross the sky 'a blue
A yellow...
Take me into your bosom
And swallow me in a mouth with tongue of thorns
Seduceme into the strange philosophy
The ancientwisdom of the dark
Dress me with my body
Rape me with my innocence
Please me with my cruelty
Bless me with my blood
And lay me asleep with gentle caresses
Of blood-red claws
Withered roses embrace
And fallen leaves of autumn...
Remember, they were something - they sounded here... The notes.
Look there, there's nothing, a leaf falls, only it's another one.
No... Scores in solitude, it's only a heart
showing the retreat in which guards the splinters.
The sound of the silence, harmonies of intimacy
show me the retreat in which I can close my eyes.
Look there, there's...
To still cling to the shadows of doubt, to hinder growth into the soul of finding yourself
I hear your pain
The fears of my life stand before me...
Do I end it now for God my children, just close my eyes
To feel the distance getting further, but there is light on the horizon
Just don't look down
And the cold will rise up and try to break the will...
There are times that walk from you like some passing afternoon
Summer warmed the open window of her honeymoon
And she chose a yard to burn but the ground remembers her
Wooden spoons, her children stir her Bougainvillea blooms
There are things that drift away like our endless, numbered days
Autumn blew the quilt right off the perfect bed she made
And...
Stay away from the future
Back away from the light
It's all deranged - no control
Sit tight in your corner
Don't tell God your plans
It's all deranged - no control
If I could control tomorrow's haze
The darkened shore wouldn't bother me
If I can't control the web we weave
My life will be lost in the fallen leaves
Every single move's uncertain...
The astral bodies
Assembled as one
At the call of irrevocable fate
The celestial gathering
Once more sent forth
In a brilliant volley of flame
Forging new paths
Along the worn landscape of eternity
Millions of years are but seconds
In the continuum of forever
Fallen leaves crumble into dust
Fade into the mausoleum
Of memories forgotten
We have...
Betty came by on her way
Said she had a word to say
About things today
And fallen leaves.
Said she hadn't heard the news
Hadn't had the time to choose
A way to lose
But she believes.
Going to see the river man
Going to tell him all I can
About the plan
For lilac time.
If he tells me all he knows
About the way his river flows
And all night shows
In...
Do you know what you fear of the ravens dark
Do you know what they hide ,hide within their hearts
Can you see the sorrow within their eyes
Can you hear their cries ,when the fiddle dies ...
Mistletoe ,friend of foe ,so black upon the moor
Fallen leaves coloured red ,blood of all the dead
Into mist they'll take you soul ,they'll take your heart
And...
Well It Looks Like It Might Rain But Rain Ain't What We Need
Sunshine and a War Machine I'm Gettin Ready For Another Stampede
Grease the Gears With Blood Paint It Black As Night
Ride Through the City Like a Trojan Horse
Convinced What You're Doin's All Right
Hold On 'till the River Goes Down the River Goes to the Sea
Hold On the Rive's Comin' Down...

We've been marching under the gloomy sky
Dispersed into small crowds
From horizon to horizon
Since time immemorial, for many years.
Under the endless vault of the sky covered with stars
Through the land which sucked blood for centuries
Through the rising clouds of dust
Through rain and raging winds.
Past enveloped in mystery
Future out of...

In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found
Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves... on the ground
I hitched a ride, until the coast
To leave behind, all of my ghosts
Searching for something, I couldn't find at home
Can't get no job, can you spare a dime?
Just one more hit, and I'll be fine
I swear to God, this'll be my one last...
Fallen leaves on the overground
Riding the blue train's empty line all around
On the evening run, I say you're the only one
All around the golden low sinking bright of the sun
See a simple spark
Bleed a burning flame
It seems so now
Everything's so near
Oh, come on over
The future's here
So brighten up
There is more to become
Fasten down every day...
Stay away from the future, but do not live in the past
The concept of never being is the false truth that speaks its mind
Do I control your visions, those that create your dreams?
Enshrouded by twilight mists, the lust of the final graven kiss
Just like ashes to ash, your flesh will be touched once again, a kiss by the wreath
The soil separates...
You've taken my anger from me, and I thank you for that 1000 times.
Because it was starting to eat me up from the inside out.
Now my heart can breath again,
no more sleepless nights,
more uncertainty.
For the first time in my life,
my blood is warm and this feeling never leaves.
Like the fallen leaves in autumn
I had to die so I can learn to love...
Souls of infidel men
Is a fertile soil
Like dusky forests grow
On fallen leaves
We draw the essence of mortal weakness
Holyness - the worst gift of light
Is long dead and gone
Buried by our sisters ages ago
Whilst the sun rapes the day
Grow burns below
Armoured and strengthened are the sons of the moon
And not blood keeps us alive
Souls of infidel...
There's a chill on this evening, nights right for greaving,
Darkness surrounds him as he wanders alone
He walked past the dim lights, the pathways and street lights
They remind him, of nights long ago,
When his love was strong and his muscles hard, His whiskey throat was barley marred,
Seeking misfortune in the lies that he told, Then a brokin heart...
One night I saw all this
The ship that drifted in
And from that afternoon you changed
Some fallen leaves were in the drive
A stranger's voice above the wind
The difference was the color of Lorraine
She said that mourning almost tasted blue
Oh Fraulein, that was you
Your phone would ring and ring and ring
The shadows on the beat
A car abandoned long...
