Lyrics

1. THE STALKER

It’s close to midnight, you’re all alone
Footsteps behind you, they’re getting closer
You’re walking faster, he’s still behind you
There’s nowhere to run, what will you do?

Trapped down the alley, his hands reach around
You gasp for precious breath, but there’s none to be found
Wire wrapped around your throat, blackness closes in
Twisted and broken – your life is done

Die by the hands of the stalker

Do or die won’t you get it out
Don’t you know that he’s lurking about
He straps his wire around your throat
You never thought it would happen to you


2. LEPROSY

Down on my knees, how could you do this to me?
This blackened disease you see
My flesh falls away in some putrid decay
You’re gonna die with me
I burn as I burn, the hatred ignites
It’s all I’ve got left
This place with the itch, you fucking bitch
You gave it to me

You gimme leprosy
Leprosy

I’m dying today in an incurable way
There’s nothing that you can say
I bleed my infection in your direction
You’re gonna pave the way
I’m burnin’, I burn, now it’s your turn to pay the price
Infected with death you should’ve never undressed
Time to take your last breath

Down on my knees, how could you do this to me?
This blackened disease you see
This place with the itch, you fucking bitch
You gave it to me

You’re gonna burn


3. THE QUESTION

Who are you now? Where are you now?
What’d you become? What have you done?
Or evolution?
Stories to be told, told from the old
Passed on down through generations
Or evolution?

Soldiers are coming with swords in their hands
To torch down the village and kill every man
Raping the women as fear strikes the land
You will convert and kneel at their command

Romans crucify heretics

Legions of doom with proud standards held high
Some think salvation will fall from the sky
Accept it as truth or denounce it as lie
But you’ll bow to Caesar or you too will die

Romans crucify seditionists

“And the lord God formed man of the dust of the ground,
And breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;
And man
Became a living soul”
“In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread,
Till thou
Return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for
Dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return”

Infidels


4. LITTLE SISTER

Well the call came down to Dallas
They said “Hey! Are you ready to rock?”
Well you know it and we’ll show it
We’re never gonna stop

So we rocked on to Miami
I saw this goddess playin’ out by the sea
She said “Baby, oh baby!
Come and mess around with me!”

I like your little sister better
She likes to do it under there
She likes to drink the margaritas
And she’s got really kinky hair

She likes to do it, she gets to it
She wants to do it to me
She’s rough ‘n’ ready, rock steady
She’ll make a man out of me

Well we rolled right on through New York
And they really rocked us down in L.A.
We were movin’ ‘n’ groovin’
Partied ‘til the light of day

And those Denver babes were out there
But I couldn’t shake her out of my mind
I went crazy, so crazy
I had to have her one more time

Reminiscin’ we were kissin’ in the surf late after sunset
On the beach we’re out of reach and we made love
Under the moonlight
No te vayas de la playa quiero verte en tu bikini
Mamasita, mi cholita, ya acabamos vamos a chupa’


5. BLOOD OF THE WOLF

Sixty eight, the year I was in womb
No one there to catch her when she fell
This, the blackest night, in the pale of the moonlight
Mother didn’t live, I fare thee well
And as I took in my first breath
Familiar scent the smell of death
Awareness seemed to come at once
It’s the call of the wild

It’s the blood of the wolf

I run through the night, a man-wolf on the loose
I hunt my prey a howl tears through the air
Voices telling me “you must destroy humanity”
Have them peer beyond the veil without a care
The full moon shining overhead
My enemies will leave here dead
The rage and anger that I feel
It’s the call of the wild

Blood of the wolf

Dark thoughts are assailing me
I change into my crinos form it sets me free
The wyrm concerns me they’re on my mind
I know why I changed what was I lookin’ to find?
Perform the rite then I head for the site
Another black night in the pale of the moonlight
I take the path to the edge of the creek
I’m a lot closer to the place that I seek
I often cry and sit and wonder why

They killed my mama ‘cause she was a wolf
She was a wolf, it’s the call of the wild, callin’ me

Sixty eight, the year I was alone
Before the pack, before the litany
Amari howls-from-soul
Black fury’s a-mauling me
I take her in the night I plant the seed
The metis cub my progeny
It will share my destiny
Avenging mother – my life’s quest
It’s the call of the wild


6. KILLASHANDRA

Killashandra I love you, does it make you feel all right?
Killashandra I need you to come into my life
Killashandra I want you,
Swirl through worlds of rain and mist
Killashandra be there with your love I can't resist

Killashandra I've waited through the corridors in time
Killashandra I've needed a light,
A sign to find my way to you
I continue my search, I'm so close I can feel it

Killashandra I love you, does it make you feel all right?
Killashandra I need you to come into my life
Killashandra I want you,
Swirl through worlds of rain and mist
Killashandra be there with your love I can't resist

Killashandra I'm sorry, I've taken much too long
Killashandra a hero ...
To save you from your quantum world of pain
We've met in dreams surreal where
Your voice carried on the wind
I continue my search, I'm so close
I can feel it...Killashandra

My colleagues at the institute they say you don't exist
But I know that they're simply wrong
I gaze into the winter sky
Where your voice carried on the wind
I continue my search, I'm so close I can feel it

Killashandra I love you, does it make you feel all right?
Killashandra I need you to come into my life
Killashandra I want you, swirl through worlds of rain and mist
Killashandra be there with your love I can't resist

8. LIQUID COURAGE

In a drunken’ state of mind I’m feelin’ fine
Cruisin’ through the bar, I got my beer goggles on
Lookin’ for that girl who can give me a thrill
Take her home tonight to make me feel alright, yeah
One more beer and I have no fear
Drunk as a skunk and I’m ready to fuck
It doesn’t matter if she’s short or tall
Just as long as she will do it all, yeah

Do you come here often?
Haven’t we met before?
Listen to my one liner
Listen to me babble on

Hey little lady, wanna have some fun?
Take you back to my place and I’ll show you my gun
Teach you new tricks
Like you’ve never seen
Let me show you how to become my queen, yeah
Ten a.m. I look across the bed
Oh my god, look what the cat dragged in
She started to speak with an insatiable grin
I said “You gotta leave now so I can start again”, yeah

(Pour me) some liquid courage
(Pour me) some nerves of steel
(Pour me) that won’t discourage
(Pour me) another drink, yeah

Drink


9. NIGHTMARE

(Instrumental)


10. THE DREAM

When I close my eyes I can see you
I can feel your smile, can you see me too?
Days drag on and on
When you close your eyes do you think of me?
When the nights grow cold do you still believe?
I would give my life just to be with you again
I imagine your face I hold it all night long
When I can’t go on your love makes me strong
You’re all that I live for…yeah, (it’s true)

Thousands of miles may keep us apart
But I reach out in darkness and I touch your heart

It’s the dream
When I dream I find myself living in yesterday
I stare into your eyes, over and over again

Just to touch your face and to stroke your hair
The love we’ve made and the love we share
I stare into the night

The dream means more to me than you’ll ever know
As I lie here on my death bed, struggling for breath
I feel my soul
Drifting further and further away
The dream keeps me here

It’s the dream
I have over and over again
