(Lawless)
I'm gonna take you, lay you face
Down on my bed
On bloody roses see you smile
Ooh, your screaming heart is bleeding
Black and beating loud
You got no prayer nowhere
There ain't no way out tonight
I'll make you cry for mercy
I'll make you cry out loud
You're gonna lie and curse me
Hurt me, burn me now
Gonna make you cry for mercy
Nobody never gonna hear you now
I'll make you mine but first I
I'll make you cry out loud
I feel your face embrace the sweat
Fall from my head
My name is vain and flames you cry
Ooh, and your bloody lips you raise to kiss
Away goodbye
You wicked bitch I'll take you
Take you away and make you mine
LONG LONG WAY TO GO
(Lawless)
Where you gonna turn to
Burning Bush's lie
God he's listening to ain't mine, no
Big oil is wicked master
Slave god of gasoline
Ride the Armageddon mile
But still to get along we gotta
Long, long way to go
Oh, no nearer to God we gotta
Long, long way to go
Sow your seed asunder
Kill you for a smile
Knead your beast and watch it rise
Feed your children to the
Hallibutron war machine
Game is fixed and you're all blind
You sing a bloody song, you gotta
Long, long way to go
Bastard, bloody bastard
TAKE ME UP
(Lawless)
Close your eyes, make me last forever
Hold inside, immortal mine
Close my eyes, lay me down in heaven
Embrace my lie, your soul in time
Won't you take me up inside you
Am I more than you can take
I'll be your father's heart of darkness
When you wake
Black blood is pounding drive your
Heart through my stake
Slide up inside you till your
Hearts start to break
Won't you take me up inside you
Am I more than you can take
Hide me deep inside and let me
Be the one forsaken
Won't you take me up inside you
Cause there's no more I can wait
Hold me in your eyes until there's
No more of you that I can take
Is it taste of bloody kisses
Is it more than you can fake
Feel me deep inside you
Is it your faith that I shake
Forgive me father for your
Sins that I break
My hand to the promise land
Your soul that I prey
THE BURNING MAN
(Lawless)
Hang man coming better run to save your
Kids, your wives, your lives, your babies
Hang the wire around the necks of liars alright
Rain man on fire from the hells of Hades
I see your face inside the blazes
Hang them higher come breathe the fire all night
Oh, run Daddy got a shotgun
On your knees tonight
And never return
Oh, run Daddy's riding shotgun
On your knees to die
The devil's begging to burn
You better run
Hang high your burning man of prey
You're gonna burn
Ooh, hang your burning man and pray
You never live to see him burn again
The seed you sow coming home to hate you
Breathe your greed is there non to save you
Hang the liar red with fire alright
A great seal to kneel for domination
Kill their king you think they'd save you
Give me fire and kill the liar all night
Ash to ash, dust to be
Face in flames, your effagee
The night time sky and see
The burning man's a liar
HEAVEN'S HUNG IN BLACK
(Lawless)
I can't take anymore
I have no more wings
I can't take anymore
The Gates of Heaven sealed
Don't you hear me
Don't you fear me
Of never coming back
Do you know what it's like
When heaven's hung in black
I can't take anymore
Our walls are black and bleed
I can't take anymore
No rooms here for your screams
Don't you hear me
Don't you fear me
Of never coming back
Oh, no more tears please
Hanging heaven black
No, don't you leave me to die
Don't you leave me to die
Don't you leave me to die
No, don't you leave me to die
And you'll know what it's like
The Wailing Wall of sighs
Hanging heaven black
And you'll know what it's like
When paradise is blind
When heaven's hung in black
Time - how can you say
That I've no time
Am I blind - now you say that
Heaven's blind, yeah
Across the Bridge of Sighs, blind, time
Oh, Lord, don't you leave me to die
No, don't you leave me to die
Don't you leave me to die
No, Lord, don't you leave me to die
And you'll know what it's like
The Wailing Wall of sighs
Hanging heaven black
And you'll know what it's like
When paradise is blind
Painting heaven black
Across the Bridge of Sighs
Your losing heaven's light
Heavens hung in black
HEAVEN'S BLESSED

A crown of thorns falls from my head
My Lord you see my knees I fall
There's never been no time I ever been denied
Almighty Lord
Ooh, God in heaven gonna give me
All I want
It's all right, all right

My God's given to me all the heaven gives
And everytime give me everything I believe I need
I'm a chosen one, I'm Lazarus
Rising from the dead
My bloody feet and knees I crawl
And my tithes he give me seven times
Gonna give me all I want
God in heaven gonna give me
All I want
TEACHER

DEAL WITH THE DEVIL
(Lawless)
I heard the rhythm
I was rocking at two
I had the Rock'N'Roll Blues
I had a vision
Down at the crossroads
To give the Devil the news
Gimme a name
And all the hell I can raise
No I had nothing to lose
I wanted fame but now
The price that you claim's oh
My soul be given to you
Cause I won't make no deal
With the Devil tonight
No, I won't make no deal
To give him my life
I got a pain
And I got a band
The road to paying my dues
A million times he shoved that
Dotted line at me
To sing away my Blues
Oh, the pen he had
Had my blood on his hands
For all Eternity too
Don't sell your soul to
No Rock'N'Roll Crossroads
He'll come collecting his due
There ain't no deal
No, there ain't no deal
No, deal - no Devil here tonight
There ain't no deal
No, there ain't no deal
No deal no Devil here tonight
No I won't make no deal
Oh, tonight
