Don't let them wander from your sight
You're best to keep them locked up tight instead
If set free they're prone to run wild
You better see the signs and mind your head
Or the creatures from inside
Will take all that they find
And make you wish that you were dead
When they come you may not know why
But soon enough they'll make their presence clear
They'll steal the colour from your eyes
And dull the sound of everything you hear
They'll tear holes in your mind
And fill them with cruel lies
And they'll feed on your fear
Snake eyes on the red dice
And I've never felt the same way since
Wheel slide on a night drive
And I've never felt the same way since
Black tie but I can't cry
And I've never felt the same way since
Sad sigh, final goodbye
And I've never felt the same way since
With each and every such time
You'll pick another up upon your way
And the more you shake, the more you'll find
They'll holding on - it seems they're here to stay
Try drowning them in wine
As long as you're alive
They won't go away
Snake eyes on the red dice
And I've never felt the same way since
Wheel slide on a night drive
And I've never felt the same way since
Black tie but I can't cry
And I've never felt the same way since
Sad sigh, final goodbye
And I've never felt the same way since
Guess who's coming to town
Guess who's coming to town
The Devil's coming to town
So come on, join in - let me see you frown
Snake eyes on the red dice
And I've never felt the same way since
Wheel slide on a night drive
And I've never felt the same way since
Black tie but I can't cry
And I've never felt the same way since
Sad sigh, final goodbye
And I've never felt the same way since

Over & Again

Old friends stay close
Locked in my head
My blood - their wine
Bones for their bread
Subtle knives hidden behind my turned back
Drums roll, crows fly, blue skies turns black
Cruel sabres flash
Here comes the clash
Demons take up arms against each other
Now’s the time for war in my head
Over and again
Battle burns on
Full flames have spread
Strife and turmoil
Peace lies long dead
Strike me down
Spare from this black conquest
For the wicked there is no rest
No truce can last
So states the past
Demons take up arms against each other
Now’s the time for war in my head
All is lost but calls of battle bringing
Never-ending war in my head
Over and again

Lucifer
03:45

When first I fell through the street
The body on the ground got up to speak
And I couldn't tell what it means
But nothing's ever made much sense to me
We cast our stones into the sea
But they made no sound
It seemed too dark then to see
But soon enough the darkness set me free
And I said hey
Why can't I play with Lucifer?
When I'm in need of a friend
They say that God loves the gentle ones
But I've never been one of them
When those words came to my head
My sullen eyes were drinking up the dread
Sat all alone breaking bread
But not even my own poor mouth was fed
The seeds were sown around the field
But fell on hard ground
If water's too rare to spread
Then maybe we should put our hope to bed
And then say hey
Why can't I play with Lucifer?
When I'm in need of a friend
They say that God loves the gentle ones
But I've never seen much in them
And I said hey
Why can't I play with Lucifer?
When I'm in need of a friend
They say that God loves the gentle ones
But I've never met him

Sleepwalker
05:01

I've been dreaming of far away lands
I've been dreaming of home
Filled with thoughts of leaving
But no journey planned
Guess I haven't a hope
In hell, in hell
I was certain that I was alone
Now I'm not quite so sure
Still I search for heaven on earth, though I know
There is only one cure
Farewell, farewell
Farewell, farewell
The longer I labour to dream
The harder I tear at the screen
There's nowhere I can hide
Where I'll escape enemies inside
The grief and strife
That plague this life
Cut deeper than any knife
I'm losing sense of time
Fearing the day that I lose my mind
I've brought this all upon myself
And now it's time to die,
So say goodbye
Looking backwards for some kind of sign
Is staring into the sun
I don't know if walking reversed I will find
Traces of things to come
Can't tell, can't tell
Can't tell, can't tell
So drink up, forget all your pain
Oh God, it's coming again
There's nowhere I can hide
Where I'll escape enemies inside
The grief and strife
That plague this life
Cut deeper than any knife
I'm losing sense of time
Fearing the day that I lose my mind
I've brought this all upon myself
And now it's time to die,
But for the second time
I'm a sleepwalker
Spent my days awake but dreaming of
Where I once came from
And will soon return
I'm a sleepwalker
With my nightmare, the Pandæmonium
Where we all end up
In the burning lake
But I'll realise my mistake
On the day I wake from this dream
