Of Rage and War Lyrics
4 ContributorsOf Rage and War LyricsYou got Libya you got the Russians
You got civilian planes crashing to the oceans
Airports full of terrorists
Nazi skins anarchists
When are they gonna learn
Better listen to me you son of a bitch
Better disarm those missiles sleeping in the ditch
You have no goddamn right to do the things you do
The world would be a better place if we were rid of you
Of rage and war
Of rage and war
Of rage and war
Of rage and war
Every country's got the bomb
The scientists are working on
Chemical weapons to melt the flesh
With no source of defense
Shoot me I'll shoot you
Like there's nothing better to do
Who's the loser in the end
Better listen to me you son of a bitch
Better disarm those missiles sleeping in the ditch
You have no goddamn right to do the things you do
The world would be a better place if we were rid of you
Of rage and war
Of rage and war
Of rage and war
Of rage and war
War broods in foreign lands
Missiles launch upon command
Islam Lebanon what the hell is going on
Ambassadors who say they try
Negotiating suicide
Are they prepared to face the end
Of rage and war
Of rage and war
Of rage and war
Of rage and war
Gutter Ballet Lyrics
4 ContributorsGutter Ballet LyricsAnother sleepless night
A concrete paradise
Sirens screaming in the heat
Neon cuts the eye
As the jester sighs
At the world beneath his feet
It's a gutter ballet
Just a menagerie
Still the orchestra plays
On a dark and lonely night
To a distant fading light
Balanced on their knives
Little parts of lives
Such a strange reality
Kill the unicorn
Just to have its horn
Soon he's just a fantasy
It's a gutter ballet
Just a menagerie
Still the orchestra plays
On a dark and lonely night
To a distant fading light
The jester takes his bows
Slips into the crowd
As the actors fade away
Another death to mourn
Another child is born
Another chapter in the play
It's a gutter ballet
Just a menagerie
Still the orchestra plays
On a dark and lonely night
To a distant fading light
It's a gutter ballet
Gutter ballet
Gutter ballet
Gutter ballet
When the Crowds Are Gone Lyrics
9 ContributorsWhen the Crowds Are Gone LyricsI don't know where the years have gone
Memories can only last so long
Like faded photographs, forgotten songs
And the things I never knew
When the skin is thin, the heart shows through
Please believe me, what I tell you is true...
Where's the lights, turn them on again
One more night to believe and then
Another note for my requiem
A memory to carry on
The story's over when the crowds are gone
All my friends have been crucified
They made life a long suicide true
Guess we never figured out the rules
But I'm still alive and my fingers feel
I'm gonna play on till the final reel's through
And read the credits from a different view
Where's the lights, turn them on again
One more night to believe and then
Another note for my requiem
A memory to carry on
The story's over when the crowds are gone
When the crowds are gone
And I'm all alone
Playing the saddest song
Now that the lights are gone
Turn them on again
One more time for me my friend
Turn them on again
I never wanted to know
Never wanted to see
I wasted my time till time wasted me
Never wanted to go
Always wanted to stay
Cause the person I am are the parts that I play
So I play and I plan
And hope and I scheme
To the lure of a night
Filled with unfinished dreams
And I'm holding on tight
To a world gone astray
As they charge me for years
I can no longer pay
When the crowds are gone
Turn 'em on again
Turn 'em on again
Turn 'em on again
Turn 'em on again
Turn 'em on again
Turn 'em on again
I never wanted to know
Never wanted to see
I wasted my time till time wasted me
I never wanted to go
Always wanted to stay
Cause the person I am are the parts I play
And the lights
Turn them off my friend
And the ghosts
Well just let them in
Cause in the dark
It's easier to see
She’s in Love Lyrics
4 ContributorsShe’s In Love LyricsShe likes what she sees
Starts to drop to her knees
Gazing with an appetite
Licks her lips in sheer delight
She's one of a kind
A sight for sore eyes
It's all the needs to be happy
I bet she never knew
It would taste so good
No she's in love
I knew she's in love
Oh no she's in love
Oh yeah she's in love
She just loves to please
Kiss of life her specialty
Oh how well she knows
Just how to make it grow
She's one of a kind
A sight for sore eyes
It's all she needs to be happy
No she's in love
I knew she's in love
Oh no she's in love
Oh yeah she's in love
Hounds Lyrics
4 ContributorsHounds LyricsSun sets on the moor
The cry of the hounds live forevermore
Stalking the night
They roam the countryside till morning's light
Do you hear the hounds they call
Scan the dark eyes aglow
Through the bitter rain and cold
They hung you down
Hunt you down
They run wild and free
Across the fields and valleys of their native land
Nature's beasts derranged
Beyond belief no one understands
Do you hear the hounds they call
Scan the dark eyes aglow
Through the bitter rain and cold
They hung you down
Hunt you down
Can you hear them in the night
They got you in their sight
Do you hear the hounds they call
Scan the dark eyes aglow
Through the bitter rain and cold
They hunt you down
Hunt you down
Summer’s Rain Lyrics
9 ContributorsSummer’s Rain LyricsStanding alone in a dream
Where nothing is real
But oh how real it feels
There were times I lost my way
I was alone, lost in a haze
Where are you now
I'll find you somehow
And do I stand alone
Like a fool out in the rain
Hanging on somehow
To an ancient vow
Where there's nothing left to gain
And do you know
How it feels inside
To be all alone
A fool and his pride
Scars are the wounds that we show
Time only heals
When you're letting go
Many nights I'd lay awake
Tossing and turning till daybreak
Where are you now
I'll find you somehow
And do I stand alone
Like a fool out in the rain
Hanging on somehow
To an ancient vow
Where there's nothing left to gain
And do you know
How it feels inside
To be all alone
A fool and his pride
In a summer's rain
In a summer's rain
In a summer's rain
In a summer's rain
Sometimes you got to believe
Beyond yesterday
I'm gonna find my way
In the summer's rain
