Land Of Gold And Fame
03:40
|

|
Who's the king of the souls in the land of gold and fame?
Who's the queen of the souls in the reign of grief and pain?
I wish for an audience with them
I have to ask them today
To know if you have regret
I walked across all the sands and the roads of the reign
I sailed across all the seas and the lakes of this land
And I asked the wind like a man
And tried to make sense
To know if you have regret
I didn't find any king nor queen in the reign
I didn't find any soul to pray for in this land
If I’d see you again
I'd follow you through this reign
I’m drifting away without faith
I’m drifting away without faith

The Idiot (Song For I.)
02:55
|
|||
|
He took his brand new guitar, the catcher on the rye
Oh lord and hit the road down under a black sun
To never coming back
He rolled the east to the west, the idiot got no rest
Just a needle in the arm to mesmerize him
And never coming back
Singing oh let me sleep without her
The idiot got no rest, he rolled de east to the west
Just cry and sing and watch the starsn on the horizon
Oh, to never coming back
He saw his best friend hang-a-bye, a needle in his hand
Like a lover in the arms of self destruction
He'll never coming back
He rolled the west to the east to find nothing but debris
Just an emptiness inside that grows and grows
He'll never coming back
He used to get down on his knees and pray
Get it out of me, he prays: Lord!
Let me sleep without her, let me sleep to die
Singing oh let me sleep without her
Singing oh come on home

Oh! Stubborn Me
02:51
|
|||
|
So you say that the truth is the word
And the justice will hold it in its sword
It's alright
I'll put this thing with mine
Then you say that a word is enough
When it just really means outta love
It's alright
Would it satisfy your mind?
So if you say that your bell doesn't ring
And you´re missing that old innocence feel
It's alright
I'll try to get it back in time
And the brightness in your eyes
Disappears when you deny
Can't read the hand, ain't got no crystal ball
But I know that you'll be by my side
Oh!, stubborn me, that's all!

Our time's a-runnin'
The Wind will take the last leaf left a-blowin'
Well let's play plankin'
I got no fear, my dear i'll keep a-goin'
Before it´s over
I´ve gotta kiss the hips that keep my fire a-burnin'
I'm only joking
Just playing dead before the dead comes on in
Maybe when you're sad, or weeping like a child
You could remember this oh remember this and smile
Remember this, a-playin’ on the streets
So quiet, so still, the days we were so young
Remember this, oh remember this and smile
Oh kill this longing
The tunnel is dark, but I can see you in a fit of laughin'
Our Time's a-runnin'
Oh may our paths cross again one morning

Ballad Of The Homesick
02:45
|
|||
|
There is a saying where I come from:
“Home is where the heart is”
So I just keep step
And think of all what’s left behind
To feel the homesick inside
I found dry tears in every town
With all the things upside down
Nobody can see, they are blind
Same old minds
I’ll keep you hiding
Have to pack my things
Now the road and the moon are friends of mine
The road and the moon, friends of mine
You shouldn't hide your tears
You shouldn't hide your fears
Before I go
Now the road and the moon are friends of mine

The Anvil Sea - Arrival
02:53
|
|||
|
Captain, captain wake you up!
Ship ain't moving far enough
Castaway in the anvil sea
Watching the sun going down
Water is heavy as an anvil
Far away from dryland
My darling's sailing up the waters
The wind rose withers in my hand
Captain captain wake up
And watch her ship go bye
As I'll stay sitting on the anvil shore
I hang my head and cry
Stranded in the doldrums
Waiting for the wind
The wind to come
and blow my ship apart

For A While
02:56
|

|
Some folks live life like a boredom party
Some folks don't try to do what they mind
The time is a-coming, the winds of change are blowing
But the shine Just appears for a while
Some days it remembers the first men on Earth
Some days it wonders when will the end arrive
Sometimes it will come
With the death whispering sweet rhymes
But the shine Just appears for a while
The shine Just appears for a while
When darkness feeds of human hearts
It’s not in vain, not in vain, not in vain
Some thoughts are built like castles in the sand
Some thoughts seem a bunch of evil lies
The time will come
It won't last forever
And the shine will appear for a while
The shine Just appears for a while

The River
04:13
|
|||
|
I don't wanna go to the river with you, No more
We walk down through the forest
Yeah we kiss goodbye to each other
And as the serpents’ hiss
I wish i'm coming home
Coming home
I don't wanna go to the river with you, No more
Our story is almost over
But the water'll keep on rolling
As your body lies a-floatin'
By the shore, By the shore
I don't wanna go to the river with you, No more
I don't wanna go with you, No more

Rye
03:32
|
|||
|
Shake like a whirl all the dreams on my hair
Try to remember how i get to this place
The walls on this room they move too fast
Try to reach the door but i'm tumblin' down oh lord!
Come on over,
Come on down
Come on whiskey,
Come on rye
Got to come on over with a smile on my face
Ethylic labyrinth underneath my brain
Fallin’ into pieces into wailing and waste
With the sword of Damocles a-shavin’ my beard oh my!
Come on over,
Come on down
Come on whiskey,
Come on rye
This is the last time, tomorrow i quit
Oh! This is last dance with the spirits queen
But i hear a voice laughing inside
A lie is a lie, so whiskey and rye!
Come on rye!

13th Blues

Got to go
Before is cool, Before is wrong
Got it cool
Before is wrong, Before it's gone
Oh the glass is a-here
And now is a-gone
I feel i'm going wild
In my way down to the floor
Got to hurry
Before is off, Before is sold
Not to worry
Before is mold, Before is old
Thirteenth on the line
and money in the hand
Have a devil by my side
gotta have it till the end

Spread Your Little Wings
04:14
|
|||
|
Down on the street on such a lonely row
Feelin' the houses shattering in my path
A gipsy lady appeared
Give her a dime, that was she told to me
"Somebody's drinkin' all the carpe diem
Somebody is waitin' for you
Somebody dreams, somebody prays"
She said, she said, she said!
"You'd better spread yer lil' wings
"You'd better spread yer lil' wings
Before you die"
Hell morning caught me in the "call" mine
As I scratch my back for the big boss benefits
Oh when the sybil came in
With foggy voice oh she spoke to me
"Somebody's drinkin' all the carpe diem
Somebody is waitin' for you
Somebody dreams, somebody prays"
She said, she said, she said!
"You'd better spread yer lil' wings
"You'd better spread yer lil' wings
Before you die"
And now I'm rollin' down the road again
Tellin' my story to all the folks around
Don't ever let them you stop
Open your eyes and look outside 'cause
"You'd better spread yer lil' wings
"You'd better spread yer lil' wings
Before you die"

Rainy Monday Morning
04:54
|
|||
|
Never thought there was a time to spend with you
Now I feel I was down and near to you
Sometimes you can see what I may never learn
But after all, I got to get to disappear
You think of another chance, I know it's taken care
But things have changed and now I am aware
You can try and think about the things you do
I’ll try to find myself while singing out of tune
And time forgets I wanted to say
Remembering how it passed away
I can dance but only without you
I felt for time I don't remind
Being so sadfull after crime
It’s only a Monday,
a rainy Monday morning blues
The tin boat on the river runs
I got to sing you a song
And all I want
Is to leave you on my own
Time forgets the past
Some past forgets the time, it’s true
But don't you believe
the older thing of you
And time forgets I wanted to sing
Remembering how it passed away
I can change but only without you
I felt for time I don't remind
Being so sadfull after crime
It’s only a Monday,
a rainy Monday morning blues

Hell´O´Hell
03:42
|
|||
|
Don't shake only the branches,
Shake the roots of the tree
Shake the damned foundations
Of everything you believe
Don't expect recognition
Don't expect any gift
Shake your damned ambitions
If you wanna be free
Oh don't take nothing for granted
Demons are not as they seem
When you expect flutes, then it's whistles
When you expect whistles, you've been cheated
Put your trust in your visions
Fight to the end for your dreams
A call to arms among armies
Partisan heart gotta bleed
You're gonna face disillusion
You're gonna taste sweet defeat
But you must hoist revolution
Along blood stained field full of limbs
For love is not an excuse, boy
Nor hat to play magic tricks
Love is a double-edged weapon
To conquer the world from within
For Devil sneaks in your safe house
To take the plunder and leave
Devil sneaks in your soul, boy
Til’ your damned at his feet
Hell'o'hell awaits in the morning
Hell'o'hell waiting for thee
Hell'o'hell fire and brimstone
Hell'o'hell Taste, taste the whip

O Sara
02:11
|
|||
|
The rogues ain't go to heaven
Rogues they go to hell
Shall I go? Oh Sara, shall I go?
Mermaids keep on singing
Know this song so well
Shall I go? Oh Sara, shall I go?
The ship hold is on fire
Nero's burning rum
Shall I go? Oh Sara, shall I go?
They’re raising the Jolly Roger...
It's time to walk the plank!
Shall I go? Oh Sara, shall I go?
The rogues ain't go to heaven
The mermaids keep on singing
The ship hold is on fire
And I face the raging waters
Shall I go? Oh Sara, shall I go…
To hell?

Mountains Of Beer
04:53
|
|||
|
Life's too short to spend it almost mourning
The road awaits for ramble, another song to sing
waiting for your tongue
And if the world is treating you unkindly
Let the dudes arrange it, gather all around
And pass the bottle to you
Let your lights ride on
For now we’re bound for glory
World’s below your feet
A-share another dream
Another mountain o’ beer
Hear you're are tried, listen up within son
Nothing's hard to beat but the sound that hit
The beat of your own drum
And if you cry, got my shoulder here
What deserves a tear may deserve a beer
Know the path so well
Well if i die i bet you'll keep on laughing
Let's make a funeral party and toast for something wild
Toast for my return!

Captain, captain wake you up!
Ship ain't moving far enough
Castaway in the anvil sea
Watching the sun going down
Water is heavy as an anvil
Far away from dryland
My darling's sailing up the waters
The wind rose withers in my hand
Captain captain wake up
And watch her ship go bye
As I'll stay sitting on the anvil shore
I hang my head and cry
Stranded in the doldrums
Waiting for the wind
The wind to come
and blow my ship apart
