STAY CLOSE
We were all raised on losing ground
Same dirt they're buried under now
Ashes to ashes dust to dust
A family of orphans bound by blood
I’ve seen what lies ahead
And we’re not out of these woods yet
Stay close - stay close
A shadow’s all I ever see
Back in the pines it waits for me
If God was truly made by man
The devil surely lent a hand
I’ve seen what lies ahead
And we’re not out of these woods yet
Stay close - stay close
Stay close - stay close - stay close

BROTHER SIN SISTER DEATH
King of orphans voice it calls
Unto me up from the ground
The forest’s edge
A family curse
By your deeds
Hell witness your worth
As the darkness moved upon
The face of the deep before
There is a well
Under the weeping willow
The father’s debt
The daughter still owes
I made my way the best I can
The daughter of a godless man
The Devil there at his right hand
No return unto his rest
Made to stand and still you fell
Brother Sin and Sister Death
What kind of light is this?
A false sun in the Devil’s sky
Nine days we fell
The old deceiver
No devil here
And no redeemer
And I’ve always known you
In those woods a dark thing waits
Now I see
Just wait a minute
One more chance
And I can get it

I Was So in Love

I WAS SO IN LOVE
You were there when I was lost
In the dark you gave me sight
In a heaven of black stars
You were my angel of the night
I was so in love with you
I was so in love with you
In the end it was my will
I had visions like a dream
In that place beneath the hills
I could hear the darkness sing
I was so in love with you
I was so in love with you
My heart
Torn loose
When I
Lost you
I always knew
You’d leave
Too soon
To a home I never knew
My father’s ghost it called to me
The only thing that I found there
Was crumbling ground beneath my feet
But I was so in love with you
But I was so in love with you

THE DEVIL DOES
Lord, Lord - what have I done?
Lord oh Lord - what have I become?
Hallowed ground refused the damned
The dirt beneath me opens up
Don’t know if God has a plan
But I’m sure the Devil does
Wait, Wait - don’t leave me here
Wait please wait - there’s no way back I fear
Hallowed ground refused the damned
The dirt beneath me opens up
Don’t know if God has a plan
But I’m sure the Devil does

Other Side of Hell

THE OTHER SIDE OF HELL
The well under the willow tree
Fed by a buried ancient stream
Like the water from the well
I’ve seen the other side of Hell
We can’t go back the way we came
But underneath the frozen lake
Out of nowhere there's a path
That does not lead to Hell but back

I Can't Say it's Unfair

I CAN’T SAY IT’S UNFAIR
Well it had rained the day before
It had frozen overnight
I lived like an autumn storm
Woke up covered all in ice
I can’t say “It’s unfair”
After all the things I’ve done
I can’t say “It’s unfair”
Offered grace I once refused
I lived as though I longed for death
My arrogance disguised my truth
Now what did I expect?
I can’t say “It’s unfair”
And now I paid for what I’ve done
I can’t say “It’s unfair”
I can’t say “It’s unfair”
I fought and lost I fought and won
I can’t say “It’s unfair”
I can’t say “It’s unfair”
I can’t say “It’s unfair”

ANGUISH OF LOVE
You were a setting sun
I was the rising moon
Both torn out of the sky
When the world broke in two
Roaming wild through the world
They tempt but they can’t control
See they can’t hurt you now
Come on let’s get you home
It’s a long stretch of road
But I’m feeling fine
Just get in the car
We’re driving all night
The anguish of love and all of the heartache
Never over - it’s never over
Savage enough to break through to true grace
Never over - it’s never over
Like a wolf in the woods
Howling back at the storm
But there haven’t been wolves
Here since seventy-four
Felt the violence of grace
And the anguish of love
Dug up out of the dirt
You crumble back into dust
Darkness given a name
Then it all disappears
Consigned to the flames
Now it all ends here

LAND OF OPPORTUNITY
This land of opportunity
Scorched earth as far as I can see
A dread of spirits gaining ground
The king of orphans wears no crown
I’ve seen the other side of Hell
And made it back to tell the tale
You lit a way to see me through
I see that fire burning true blue
The fire leads me to you
The darkness burns away
I never minded misery
I do come by it honestly
I only came back here for you
But now I see it saved me too
I fly upon the howling wind
And so until we meet again
I walk beneath a blood red moon
But there’s a fire burning true blue
The fire leads me to you
The darkness burns away
The darkness burns away
The darkness burns…
This land of opportunity
Scorched earth as far as I can see
You lit a way to see me through
I see that fire burning true blue
The fire leads me to you
The darkness burns away
The darkness burns away
The darkness burns away
