The pouring rain Sticks my hair to my face An empty gaze is all I have left The stars that once lit my way have dimmed The sky turned grey The path once so clear faded away Blessed are the days when life is intent and clear No falter or doubt, I know the way They are the days I hope I have never stepped from this road The spark I once had seems to have died Stand up and fight (Stand up and fight) Stand up and look into the light Pushing the clouds away Stand up and fight (Stand up and fight) Stand up and see the sky turn bright Fight for a better day What a relief it would be to end this all How easy to fly the white flag and give up But would I run today just to die another day? Give up now and every fight has been in vain Stand up and fight (Stand up and fight) Stand up and look into the light Pushing the clouds away Stand up and fight (Stand up and fight) Stand up and see the sky turn bright Fight for a better day Get up You've made it this far No loser you are One more time One more try The pouring rain Sticks my hair to my face Stand up and fight (Stand up and fight) Stand up and look into the light Pushing the clouds away Stand up and fight (Stand up and fight) Stand up and see the sky turn bright Fight for a better day Stand up and fight (Stand up and fight) Stand up and fight (Stand up and fight) Stand up and fight (Stand up and fight) Stand up and fight (Stand up and fight) Stand up and fight (Fight, fight, stand up and fight)

I am becalmed in virtue Lost to nothing on a bay of dreams Warm weather and a holocaust The tears of God flow as I bleed Left to die by two good friends Abandoned me and put to sleep On a shore where oyster beds Seem plush as down And ripe enough for the Luxor dream Recall the dream of Luxor How fluids will arrive As if by call or schedule Resume through the morning tide Where entry is by seaweed gate And plan the plan of dreams To lose oneself in reverb In all that is and all that seems So ladies, fish and gentlemen Here's my angled dream See me in the blue sky bag And meet me by the sea The oyster boys are swimming now To claim me back from the dead The creatures back from vertigo They fear to fall but haven't fell Will reclaim tries and try again The oyster boys are swimming now Hear them chatter on the tide Of the lost and language lost Hear them chatter on the tide We understand, we understand, we understand And so do I We understand, we understand But fright is real and so am I So ladies, fish and gentlemen Here's my angled dream See me in the blue sky bag And meet me by the sea The entry to lost vestibule Opens on the bay An instant shape of mercury Lost and then retained An instant is an eyelash Caught on the tide Imaginos! Below this bay And then besides... The oyster boys are swimming now One deal is what we made Forest keys and whirlwind cold Green trees too and keys of gold Even locks that won't explode When the skies become a scroll Having lost its interest See that's the deal we made Just to join the Öyster Cult The Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand—Blue Öyster Cult We understand, we understand, we understand

There walked a lonely man Silent, mute, the only man Not knowing how not knowing why Was he the sole survivor Why should he be alive Breathing still while others died? And the only question Why was he the sole survivor? Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Wind blew across the sand He stood alone, he had no plan And with the last rays of the sun He screamed aloud began to run In his tears he sees his face "I am the end of the human race When I'm gone there'll be no trace For I'm the sole survivor" Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night One night when years had passed The sky shook from a fiery blast And there a starship, saved at last To come rescue this survivor They beckoned him inside But only man, he would not ride Instead he found a place to hide For he's the sole survivor Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night

I went out down last night with a tattoo madame To a nude dagger fantasy domain Wrapped in hell, I lost my breath, whoa Chest to stimulating Chinese breast Grisly smiles that don't flake off Carny coloured demons leering Vampire photo suckin' the skin Seeding the night at the inker's parlour Flesh permabrand, pricked for a dollar Her wrist, surreal, a heart and flying skull Lettered life and love pass swiftly Grisly smiles don't flake off Carny coloured demons leering Vampire photo suckin' the skin Vampire, vampire Grisly smiles that don't flake off Carny coloured demons leering Vampire photo suckin' the skin Vampire tattoo Vampire tattoo Vampire tattoo Vampire tattoo Tattoo Tattoo Tattoo In a powerful way suckin' the skin

Well I bumped inside the magic man And he laid some tricks on me He said, "You do need help my friend" I whispered... "Obviously" He laid a spread of Jacks and Queens And he bade me take my pick But every face it had your face I cried out, "I am sick" Sick of hauling your love around Want to run my train alone But the engine tracks straight through your heart And weighs me like a stone Oh, it's a hard load to love you It takes up all my time, having you So familiar Like last life's Nursery rhyme So I gave away the pictures And your golden ring And the phone calls you sent me And the silver birds that sing Then the man he told me something That really brought me down Your things were thrown away, it's true But you were still in town Sick of hauling your love around Wanna run my train alone But the engine tracks straight through your heart And weighs me like a stone Oh, it's a hard load to love you It takes up all my time, having you So familiar Like last life's Nursery rhyme The magician left a message It flashes when I hide Accept the chains of loving Accept or else remove yourself from her side And do without her love And I lay back with a steel chain I keep it by my side I could mail a letter to you but I still Have my pride Sick of hauling your love around Wanna run my train alone But the engine tracks straight through your heart And weighs me like a stone Three times I've sent you back from me Three times my bones gone dry And three times I've seen the shooting shark Lighting up the sky Oh, it's a hard load to love you, babe It takes my breath away The fourth time round Is the last time round There's nothing else to say.

I have this feeling that my luck is none too good This sword here at my side don't act the way it should Keeps calling me its master, but I feel like its slave Hauling me faster and faster to an early, early grave And it howls! It howls like hell! I'm told it's my duty to fight against the law That wizardry's my trade and I was born to wade through gore I just want to be a lover, not a red-eyed screaming ghoul I wish it'd picked another to be its killing tool Black Blade, Black Blade Forged a billion years ago Black Blade, Black Blade Killing so its power can grow It's death from the beginning to the end of time And I'm the cosmic champion and I hold a mystic sign And the whole world's dying and the burden's mine And the black sword keeps on killing 'til the end of time Black Blade, Black Blade Bringing chaos to the world we know Black Blade, Black Blade And it's using me to kill my friends Black Blade, Black Blade Getting stronger so the world will end Black Blade, Black Blade Forcing my mind to bend and bend I am the Black Blade Forged a million billion years ago My cosmic soul it goes on for eternity Carving out destiny Bringing in the Lords of Chaos Bringing up the Beasts of Hades Sucking out the souls of heroes Laying waste to knights and ladies My master is my slave Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! You poor fucking humans
