from the album Acoustic Soul
You’re like a cool breeze, on a summer’s day
You are a river running through the desert plain
You are my shelter, from the pouring rain
You were my comfort, even before the pain
I can hear the sound of five drummers in the wind
The leaves blowing in the breeze, ring out like guitars
A tin can rolls across the gravel like a tambourine
I am but a vessel, so I sing, because you are
[Chorus]
In my head, you’re always in my head
In my dreams, you’re always in my head
In my pain, you’re always in my head
In my peace, you’re always in my head
A rainbow of rhythm stretches across the sky
An airplane in the distance, plays a beautiful cello line
It’s no coincidence; it’s in tune with the music in my head
If you were a shoulder you’re where I would rest, but I am your vessel so I hear, you
[Chorus]
In my head,you’re always in my head
In my fears,you’re always in my head
In my joy,you’re always in my head
In my tears, you’re always in my head
You’re like a cool breeze, on a summer’s day
You are a river, running through a desert plain
You’ve been my shelter, from the pouring rain
You were my comfort, even before the pain:’cause I hear you
[Chorus]
In my head, you’re always in my head
In my dreams, you’re always in my head
In my pain, you’re always in my head
In my peace, you’re always in my head
[Chorus]
In my head,you’re always in my head
In my fears, you’re always in my head
In my joy, you’re always in my head
In my tears, you’re always in my head

from the album N/A
As I walk through the blackened forest
Thoughts of hate and anger fill my soul
The charred remains of the holy rollers
Scream repentance though it’s far too late
I fight back the laughter at what I see
The suffering healers false destined prophecy
He didn’t think yesterday of the end of his life
The brainwashed fools born again of a thousand lies
Hate filled screams break the silence
Terrifying dreams filling up your head
Blasphemy thrusting out, in the masses it reigns
The mask of hypocrisy is slowly unveiled
Fear the angels holocaust, they’re screaming
Dreams of pain forever entering your head
Death and hatred loathing, on mankind it feeds
Earth is dead and gone now, we’ve brought it to an end
For the last time I’ve been betrayed
Never again will I subject myself to this hypocrisy
Something is drawing me to the other side
Only time will tell my true destiny

from the album Riddle Box
~Rain & thunder~
"Wake …Wake …Awake… Revenge is mine. 12 people will die tonight."
[voices]
Guilty…guilty…guilty…guilty…guilty…guilty…guilty…guilty…guilty..
Now I’ve woken then reborn. Though I have just until dawn.
I remember every face, spirits show me every place.
First one sleeps inside his bed. Place my fingers on his head.
To each temple push and smuther, till my fingers touch each other.
Next one makes love to his wife. Only wish to take his life.
For his family’s done no wrong. Place his children on the lawn.
Tell the misses leave the room. Lest she wish to witness doom.
Grab the squirmy, filthy, goat, and shove the dresser down his throat.
I must quickly use my gift. Next 2 work the midnight shift.
Drinking coffee in the back, I will listen to them chat.
Hear them speaking of my death. Hear the laughter in their breath.
But the laughter quickly died, when their heads colli-e-i-e-ide.
(chorus):
Ya care ta die? Ya care ta die? (9x)
(End chorus)
Now my anger’s growing worse. Next one’s working as a nurse.
Have to make a doctor’s call. Drag my body down the hall.
Grab a scalpel and a blade. Time to play the nurse’s aid.
Operate and strap her down, carve her face into a clown.
Killed another, then 3 more. Now we’re down to only 4.
This man drives a taxi cab. `Nother wicked life to grab.
Screaming that he thought I died. Let’s go for a taxi ride.
In the wreck of twisted steel, the steering wheel becomes his meal.
This man watches his TV. Scanning channels endlessly.
Stops at station foty-fo’ it’s the wicked clown show.
Watch me juggle, watch me dance. In 3D watch me enhance.
Watch me crawl out from the screen and squeeze your neck until you’re
gre-he-heen.
(chorus)
Time-Time-Time-Time-Time-Time-Time-Time-Time-Time-Time-Time-Time-Time….
Even though there’s just one left, I feel my bones becoming stiff.
And now I wander endlessly, the spirits have abandoned me.
My lips are falling piece by piece. My ears and fingers in the street.
But still yet see no morning sun, and here’s my victim’s early run.
Quickly grab him from behind, ’round his neck with fishing twine.
Keep him still and pull the string, watch his head go bobbaling!
Listen to my riddle song, even though my crime was wrong.
Murder me just for your law and I’ll be back for all a yall!
(chorus)

Check my blood pressure,

Prescription pills to keep me calm,
Nigga, I’m da bomb!
In the black Testerosa,
Sippin’ on Mimosa,
A bleedin’ ?nosa?
I’m in the West, we ain’t got the ?nego?
Give me Sicko kilos from Puerto Rico
When I okay it,
So much cheese, you got to weigh it
Never thought these niggaz was the feds
"Freeze" was the sound
I started lettin’ off rounds,
lay the whole fuckin’ room down
I don’t wanna see Your Honor,
Ratha eat pirhana from Benny Hana,
Smokin’ marijuana in my sauna,
I done hade it with these attics and faggots,
They them rattic causin’ static,
bring me my A-U-T-O-matic,
oh niggaz wanna se how we ride
Bitch, you know the muthafuckin’ side,
world muthafuckin’ wide.
[Chorus]
Make yo’ hustle official,
And them niggaz that’s wit’ you,
gotta push tha issue,
on the fools that dis you,
whether pump or pistol,
when it’s up in yo’ gristle,
hand yo’ mama a tissue,
If I decide to kiss you.
[hook] (replace "a-yeay" with "Ask about me")
Can you dig her?
It’s the bigger, seven-figure, super nigga
Wit’ the triggas at yo’ dome,
we like to roam,
Through yo’ muthafuckin’ home like a comb
and find the money that’s gone
And we’ll take you, shake you,
break you, take two,
play you on wit’ the chrome,
nigga shoot!
Execute, they try to electrocute
I got too much loot
Ya say I’m on yo’ hit list,
You niggaz miss,
tryin’ to turn my muthafuckin’ cheese into Swiss
Rappers make bucks and I can hear it,
hard to fear it,
‘Cuz I know you grew up on my lyrics
It’s the boss player,
never lost hair over assholes,
blast holes in you muthafuckin’ tadpoles
Like a bullfrog,
nigga I’m a bullhog,
guppies get worked like puppies by the bulldog
Where millions never gave a fuck about Sicilians,
or killas on T.V. can see,
we got the real ones
So check yo’ muthafuckin CD-Rom
and your World Wide Web, dot com,
It’s the Don Mega!

by Iced Earth
from the album N/A
The time is close now, the end is near
My walk through the valley, trails of fear
I feel empty, my penance overdue, I guess it’s too late now
To be with you
I’m extremely frightened of what will surely be
I sold myself, the death of me
I know you can’t forgive me
I know I’m on my own, I’ve betrayed you
I walk alone
What exactly is the meaning of this
Just pawns in your twisted game
Severe pain for the lie I’m livin’
For a love I never could betray
Bridge
Question me not say the lord unto thee
You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny
Denied of this life is what you are to be
You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny
Lord I pound my fists at you
Won’t you just let me die
Would I not suffer enough
No inner peace no after life
Repeat Bridge
I did what I thought was right
All for the love of my life
I know it’s sad but true
Something is very wrong
Condemned to suffer so long
For a love so true
The question that lies within
Is so hard to understand
It still tears at me
And in my dying breath
My heart holds no regrets
I wouldn’t change a thing
My spirit begins to rise into the heavenly skies
Just to be shunned away by you
Now all I want is to die, no streets of gold in the sky
And I wash my hands of you
Bridge
Rising to the heavens light
Just to plea for death
Just to be denied-

Our Anniversary is what its suppose to be
Goin on 2 yrs and now it ends in tragedy
Just walked out the door (door) and you went away (way)
Didn’t say nothing and didn’t give me time to explain
I called your house (house) they say your not home (home)
But I know your sittin by the phone screening my calls
Girl I understand
You don’t want to see my face
But at least give me a chance to plead my case
[Chorus]
What what have I done (I done)
To you I’m so afraid (afraid)
Oh what did I do
When I woke up this mornin it wasn’t you
In my bed (in my bed)
Instead (Instead)
It was some women face I didn’t even recognize
And you still went away
Please forgive me for I am ashamed
Really missin you
What am I suppose to do
Never meant to hurt you an anyway please let me stay
She meant nothing to me (me)
It was like a dream (dream)
Its not fair cause when I woke up you were not there
But I know its reality
And the truth really hurts you see
But find it in your heart to forgive me
But what I’ve done I’m wrong and I feel so ashamed
[Chorus]
What what have I done
To you I’m so afraid (to you I’m afraid)
Oh what did I do
When I woke up this mornin with you
In my bed (in my bed)
Instead (Instead)
It was some women face I didn’t even recognize
And you still went away
Please forgive me for I am ashamed
I feel ashamed [6x]
[Chorus]
What what have I done (I done)
To you I’m so afraid (afraid)
Oh what did I do
When I woke up this mornin it wasn’t you
In my bed (in my bed)
Instead (Instead)
It was some women face I didn’t even recognize
And you still went away
Please forgive me for I am ashamed

from the album N/A
I get in from work at 2 a. m.
and sit down with a beer
Turn on late night t.v.
and then wonder why I’m here
It’s meaningless and trivial
and it washes over me
And once again I wonder
is this all there is for me
Here I am again
Look at me again
Here I am again
On my on
Trying hard to see
What there is for me
Here I am again
On my own
Life seems so pathetic
I wish I could leave it all behind
This canvas chair, this bed,
these walls that fall in on my mind
Hold on for something better
that just drags you through the dirt
Do you just let go or carry on
and try to take the hurt
Here I am again
Look at me again
Here I am again
On my own
Trying hard to see
What there is for me
Here I am again
ON MY OWN!
