Lyrics



1. PLAY IT TO DEATH

Am I leading you?
Should I know the way?
You will be the moth
And I will be the flame....yeah

Inverted crosses, burn the witch
Join the coven, play it to death

It's the law of three
The pleasure and the pain
You want infamy
You'll have Crowley's fame....yeah

Metal muscle, a golden dawn
For we are legion, play it to death

Till you very last breath
You very last breath


2. HOLY GROUND

With the nightfall
With the sunrise
Follow in my footsteps
And we'll go walking in holy ground

On holy ground
I'm found
Born in the silence, sleepwalking
Into this world
Out of the darkness, rising voices
Spirits waiting to be heard
Out in the desert, people praying
Watch the fires burn

All that you see is all there is
To return again and again and again.....

On holy ground
We'll go walking on holy ground

Feel the power, shadow dancing
Leaving chaos everywhere
Eyes are watching from the ruins
Bodies choking in the air
Down from the heavens, breaking thunder
Wash away the fear

All that you see, all that you feel
Will disappear again, again, again, again...

On holy ground
We'll go walking on holy ground

Watch the fires burning
Burn


3. ELEMENTS

She was born of a witch
A child of the night
She consults the runes
While the stars are aligned
When the full moon is high
The Goddess is lightning her way
She says 'Come to the Sabbat,
The Devil is here
There are winds in the heavens but
Nothin' to fear
Seek higher knowledge not stir up
The fires of Hell

Earth, water, air and fire
Earth, water, air and fire
Look to the light
Look to the light

Steer clear of the darkness
And look to the light
Come to the light
Come to the light
See through the darkness which
Hides that is pure and is light

Earth, water, air and fire
Earth, water, air and fire

So she lights up the candles
For scrying tonight
Athame and chalice by mere candlelight
And the magic is safe for an angel
Is guarding the plain

Earth, water, air and fire
Earth, water, air and fire


4. STICKS AND STONES

It feels like flyin'
I soar above a sea of love
I am found, yeah I'm so alive
It feels like flyin'
It's something worth dyin' for
I'd give my life but I'm so alive

Sticks and stones can break my bones
But I can't get much higher
It's my life and I'll decide
Whatever I desire

I'm on fire
It burns inside, it gives me pride
It's deadly sin but I'm so alive
I'm on fire
And it burns for you if you want it to
Pretty soon you'll be so alive

Sticks and stones can break my bones
But you can't get much higher
It's your life, you decide
Whatever I desire

Don't it make you feel like fyin'


5. THE DARKEST PLACES

Hey kid, it's only rock and roll
But can you feel it?
Got your head in a goddam hole
Come on an' feel this

See ya, see ya
Don't wanna be ya
See ya, see ya
Don't wanna be ya
In the darkest places

Hey kid, c'mon let's hang tough
We are legion
Raise your fist now we're dark enough
'Tis the season

See ya, see ya
Don't wanna be ya
See ya, see ya
Don't wanna be ya
In the darkest places

A ring' o' ring of roses
A pocketful of posies
Atishoo, atishoo, we all fall down

Little Jack Horner sits in this corner
Playing with a ouija
Playing with a ouija

See ya, see ya
Don't wanna be ya
See ya, see ya
Don't wanna be ya
In the darkest places


6. LIFE'S A KILLER

I'm on your road to nowhere
I'm getting out your head
I'm so far from the real world
I've fallen off the edge

I've got a suitcase fill of...
Nothin' ever goes my way
Seems like my tomorrows are
Shrouded by my yesterdays

Truth is I never needed you
Treading on myself
If it's hell or high water
I'd sooner go to hell

I've had enough of paying
I keep givin' in and that's my mistake
I want a new horizon
I'll give 'em hell
I'll make 'em pay

Just seventeen going on seventy
And life's killer
My remedy bein' wild and free yeah....
Cos life's a killer
It's killin' me

I've got some crazy feeling
So get out of my way
This life is killin' believin'
And I don't like this place...no

I'm on the road to nowhere
I've fallen off the edge

And I'm hangin' on by a finger on a ledge
And life's a killer


7. THREE WISE MONKEYS

I don't wanna be dead
But I don't like livin' either
There's a highway to heaven
And a one-way to hell
Just a rock and roll band
Tryin' to give you a reason
And the freedom I want
Ain't flavour of the month
Nobody listening

I hear no evil
See no evil
Speak no evil

A cautionary tale
The sinner ain't a believer
It's always the same
Ya always bang and ya blame
Everybody you've wronged
Is probably gonna be there
D'ya wanna suffer in pain
Over and over again
I'm gonna wish you well

I hear no evil
See no evil
Speak no evil

Sound the alarm
Ring out the bell
Devil gonna get ya
Gonna take you to hell.


8. SHAME THE DEVIL

Theres a time, for living
And a time for love
Theres a time, for forgiving, yall
And a time to shove
Ohh theres more, won then lost
More hoping here to spare
And its waiting, waiting
Don't ya spend your whole life hesitating
Come and tell the truth
Shame the devil

Theres more, light then dark
Honey shining down on you
More despair, then what you got
And baby you'll need the truth
This whole world, has had enough
Of people giving up
And its waiting, waiting
Don't you spend your whole life hesitating
Come on tell the truth
Shame the devil

And its waiting, waiting
Don't spend your whole life hesitating
Come on tell the truth
Shame the devil
Don't you know that its waiting, ah waiting
Don't you spend your whole life hesitating
Come on, let loose
Shame the devil


9. LOVE LIKE SIN

She rises late again and steps over her torn bloodstained dress
She finds her way to the mirror and holds her aching head
As she recalls the fury the bruises don't seem all that bad
She takes the hair of the dog and a cigarette

Love's like a breeze in the summer
It blows like the wind in a hurricane
It floats on the wings of an angel
It burns like a flame from the devil himself

He says he loves you like sin
He says he wants you, he needs you like the air that he breathes
He says believe me, I'm so sorry, this won't happen again

A flashing light in the hallway
A message on her answerphone
Another chance, another sorry
Why can't he leave her alone?

He says he loves her like sin so let's make it up and paint the town red
She wipes a tear from her eye as the circle goes on without end

Love's like a breeze in the summer
It blows like the wind in a hurricane
It floats on the wings of an angel
It burns like a flame from the devil himself

He says he loves you like sin
He says he wants you, he needs you like the air that he breathes
He says believe me, I'm so sorry, this won't happen again

She lays motionless still the tracks of her tears on her face
And so today her lover was a razor blade.

Love's like a breeze in the summer
It blows like the wind in a hurricane
It floats on the wings of an angel
It burns like a flame from the devil himself

He says he loves you like sin
He says he wants you, he needs you like the air that he breathes
He says believe me, I'm so sorry, this won't happen again


10. PAINT IT BLACK

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new baby it just happens every day

I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and I want it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black

Paint it, paint it, paint it, paint it black
Paint it, paint it, paint it, paint it black
Paint it, paint it, paint it, paint it black
Paint it, paint it, paint it, paint it black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes

Paint it, paint it, paint it, paint it black
Paint it, paint it, paint it, paint it black
Paint it, paint it, paint it, paint it black
Paint it, paint it, paint it, paint it black
