Lyrics


1. I Burn For You

Do you remember when I held you
How we stayed awake
Do you remember when I kissed you
How it made you shake
Take a look back to the way it felt
Tell me it was wrong
It hurts me to say so
But yes if you wonder
For you I sing this song

Oh stroke of luck roll the dice
And I wish to make you mine
Hear me scream from my soul
Darlin' my cuts bleed you

Now I burn for you
Take this fire to your heart
Now I burn for you
Feel me rock you hard

Winds of change
Blow a reason to let go
Sing my song in vain
The rush of that feeling
All eyes are upon me
It helps to ease the pain
I owe it to you
You gave me the hunger
Now I'm up on stage
Now nothing matters
I'm killing me loudly
For you with sounds untamed

Oh touch of fate play roulette
Who am I to make you mine
Hear you scream out for more
Darlin' my wounds heal you

Now I burn for you
Take this fire to your heart
Now I burn for you
Feel me rock you hard
Now I burn for you
Pulled your arrow from my heart
Now I burn for you
Feel me rock you rock you hard

Onward and upward
Nothing will stop us
Now it's time to play
Full speed to victory
The evil is running
The dragon has been slayed

Oh wasted years and wasted tears
No more crying from my eyes
Feel the flame touch your heart
We were born to rock you

Now I burn for you
Take this fire to your heart
Now I burn for you
Feel me rock you hard
Now I burn for you
Shot your arrow in my heart
Now I burn for you
Feel me rock you rock you hard


2. To Your Heart

I hear your heart
Are you calling out to me
Could it be you need a friend
Has the pain of all this life
Got you feeling near the end
Can you see your not alone
Can you tell I'm right by your side
Though the world won't let you go
Turn to me and you can

Hide within my wounds
I won't let you be
I was born
To save you from false hope
Take my hand my child
Don't ever be afraid
I have died
So now you can live on

Time it pulls you on
Onward to me

I see the tears
As they're rolling down your face
Yes I know that you're afraid
And as long as you will live
You're subject to the change
Like a ship out on the sea
You're a pawn of circumstance
If you set your sails to me
You can win this game of

Chance to let me in
I will not falter
Stand be strong
Tomorrow's a new day
Arm yourself with my love
You'll never be alone
Trust in me
The pain will go away

Sadness drags you down
I will be around if you

Take me to your heart
The world can't hurt you
I've got scars on my hands
And from my crown
Take me to your heart
No time won't change it
I will lay my hands upon your love

Take me to your heart


3. Devil's Daughter

Now my mamma told me
When I was just a kid
She said don't stay out late at night
A certain lady with big big eyes will get ya
She'll make the wrong seem right

Now she's got this big city attitude
Can you hear her call
She'll cast a spell with her flaming gratitude
And then she'll watch you crawl

She's got the face of an angel
And the words of a saint
She'll touch your heart like a savior
But then she'll lead you down to hell

Don't play those games with the devil's daughter
She's got the kiss of death on her lips
Don't take the hand of the devil's daughter
She's gonna lead you down

Oh she's a good looker
She's just a fallen angel
She wants to darken your heart
Once you get in the bed of desire boy
That's when the trouble starts

She's just like the wind
Just free and crazy
Her heart as dark as the night
When the beast comes alive inside this lady
You better run for your life

Now she's got the call of the siren
And the claws of a big black cat
Death is sure to greet you the instant
That you happen to cross her path

Oh she's out to get you
She's lost the will to live
Her invitation is the high road of the damned

When the sun falls to the earth
And the stars come out to play
There's a curse upon the world
It's a demons holiday
If you take her skin in vain
And you sacrifice your soul
You'll only have yourself to blame
When the gates of heaven close


4. Goodbye

Your love's the color of my heart
Like fire it burns me red
Can we finish what we started
She said
I don't think you can read the sign
The writing's on the wall
Can't you hear the wind it calls

So now I look away
You pull me back to stay
In you aching arms I love to hold you
I gotta see the sights
I gotta feel the lights
Good god I love to play
Baby break these chains

Is there no way to make you smile
Our bond has it come undone
You know with me your second to none
I must be free to see the world
And play the game so hard
Those memories of you I can't discard

And now with the night so cold
How every star it knows
That girls broken heart
It needs some mending
I had to pay the price
I had to roll the dice
I had to take a chance baby baby

Oh don't feel so bad your on my mind
As I take the stage tonight
The rain that falls the angels cry
Feel the pain of paradise
I know some guy will make you smile
Like I did so many times
Just turn away and dry your eyes
As you hear me say goodbye

Goodbye girl don't be afraid
Cuz a part of me is in you
Goodbye girl no I just can't stay
But I'll always love you
Goodbye girl
You know I'll miss your touch
But I was born to prove them wrong
Goodbye girl I'm so far away
Oh how it burns this lonely flame


5. Second Death

Tell me now tell me now
What is it you're afraid of
To be alive or to be dead
When you look in the mirror what do you see
Life is short like blood is red
Don't you know some day you will be gone
You got to change your evil ways
You run around like you live forever
What do I have to say

The casket is closing
See the lid come down upon you
Now hear the dirt falling on the wood
So how could you ever hold your breath
My friend your not dead
Until you second death

Hear the wolf now as he's calling
He wants you to join the pack
Every night it's the same old song and dance
Can't you tell that his wool is black
The red rose that he is giving you
Don't you know that it wilts away
Do you want to be dead forever
Don't kill your soul this way

The casket is closing
See the lid come down upon you
Now hear the dirt falling on the wood
So how could you ever hold your breath
Don't you know that the sun is soon to set on you
Is your name in the book of life
Or will you burn in the lake of fire and flames and death
Your second death

See the light or face your second death
