Rain

I used to be a man about town
sleeping in doorways all around
I
used to be a scoundrel
at least that's what I heard
but I don't recall
everything that occurred
CHORUS:
There was a storm I couldn't sleep through
lightning flash vivid blue
thunder in my head like a train
my heart is filling up with rain
I used to be the talk of the town
I could not restrain the words I found
the ocean one day returns
all things to the shore
so now I'm back to
where I was before
If I told you lies in our debates
It's so hard to keep things straight
every time I tell my story
the story overtakes
but now I wanna say I'm sorry
for every mistake

Angel
03:15
|
|||
She's blinding in her light
she burns like paradise
eternity comes at a price
she has regrets, but she's not contrite
CHORUS:
Food for the soul
I can never forget her
I loved her so
but never knew how to tell her
She tastes like heaven
lives on angel food cake
she's my obsession
she's totally opaque
BRIDGE:
One day she walked away
I didn't know what to do
if you ever had a heart
you would have loved her too
She sings like an angel
breathes celestial light
her memory rocks me to sleep
on the coldest nights

Drive By Confession
03:12
|
|||
You know I'll listen patiently C
you know I'll keep it judgment free F
I guess that's why Am
you always come back to me G
Listening to you C
i
s the least I can do F
I can do the least at least Am
but I'll never be your priest G
CHORUS:
It's another drive-by confession C G
I know you'll never make concessions C G
you can tell me all of your sins Am
you know I'll never turn you in D G
I'm not appointed C
I'm not anointed F
I can't reduce your sentence Am
could you offer penitence G
CHORUS
Bridge:
after we examine Em
all the ideas in you head F
we'll take a shot of whisky G
and bury all the dead G C
C G
OUT:
I have no solution C
I have no absolution G

Now It's Time
03:46
|
|||
we tried so hard
tried so hard to wait
we said we'll do
we'll do what it takes
they say fools rush in
and that is trun
fools rush in
from the time we begin
CHORUS:
Now it's time, now it's time
I got nothing to prove
Now it's time, now it's time
got nothing to lose
Now it's time, now it's time
it's time to move
all I got is a question for you
darkness falls
darkness falls again
we sit in judgement
oh we condemn
oh we know we're right
we double down tonight
but we all have to look in the mirror
in the end
so now the time has come
our time is here
hold my hand
let's silence the fear
all we want
is to have our say
but so many obstacles
in the way

Afraid
03:18
|
|||
I build my walls all around
a maze dug deep under the ground
I build a dusty, damp, and quiet space
this is my own hell that I embrace
CHORUS:
we all afraid of going to hell
maybe we all just build it ourselves
if there's no devil we can make our own
set him up on his little throne
his smile is mirthful and malformed
polishing up his twisted horns
BRIDGE
I'm drinking whisky tonight
a voice in my head says that's alright
the devil says when tomorrow comes
the future will look so bright
The devil has his talking points
for Damnation, Inc.
he says eternal suffering
not as bad as people think
it only hurts a little bit
in eternity it's just a little prick
