Sinner rider, rides in with the storm The devil rides beside him The devil is his god, God help you mourn Do you, do you hear it, do you hear the thunder Deafen every living thing about Can you, can you see it, can you See the mountains darken yonder Black sun rising, time is running out Sacrifice to vice or die by the hand of the Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! His steed of fury, Eyes of fire and mane ablaze Demonic vultures stalking Drawn by the smell of war and pain He roams the starways Searching for the carcasses of war But if it's hungry then its very presence Disrupts the calm into the storm Curse and damn you all you'll fall by the hand of the Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! God of the Devils, God of the Devils Won't you help them pray God of the Devils, God of the Devils Is there no other way Can't you hear their souls calling out in their plight Can't you see their blood is boiling setting them alight
Thirty years now sleeping, so sound War raises its head, and looks slowly around The Sinner is near, sensing the fear And the beast will start movin' around Can't you see their souls calling out in their brain Can't you hear their blood is boiling setting them alight
Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! Sacrifice to vice or die by the hand of the Curse and damn you all you fall by the hand of the Sinner!
I'll be damned, here comes your ghost again But that's not unusual It's just that the moon is full And you decided to call And here I sit, hand on the telephone Hearing the voice I'd known A couple of light years ago Heading straight for a fall Well we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Yes we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Now I see you standing all around with snow in your hair Now we're looking out the window of a crummy hotel over Washington Square Our breath comes in white clouds, mingles and hangs in the air Speaking strictly for me, we both could've died then and there Now you're telling me, your not nostalgic Damn give me another word for it You were so good with words And at keeping things vague Cause I need some of that vaugeness now It's all come back too clearly, Yes I love you dearley And if you're offering me diamonds and rust, I've already paid Well we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Yes we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Diamonds, Diamonds and rust

Throughout the soft and timeless days of August 'Til now the shadows begin to grow much longer The sunset's fire has deepened blood red I give you this, the last rose of summer A token of my unyielding love So when the winter's mantle stills the earth And all around seems dead and cold This rose reminds you of a time when all was warm and living Do not despair, mother nature simply rests In sleep she has well earned 'Til one day not so very far from now With the opening of the first rose buds I shall return A token of my unyielding love So that when winter's mettle steals the earth And all around seems dead and cold This rose reminds you of a time when all was warm and living The last rose of summer
I made a spike about nine o'clock on a Saturday All eyes hit me as I walked into the door Then and then the guys were fooling in the demin dudes A couple cards played rough stuff, New York, fire island
I cased the joint, straining at the scenes
I moseyed up to the counter and the tender came a-grinnin' I snapped the smile off his face and scowled "Give me a bourbon" The mirror on the wall was collecting and reflecting All the heavy bodies ducking, stealing eager for some action The scene screwed me up, I saw some contact Then the big boys, saw me and knew that
I'd had too much, floating around Statues alive, seconds are hours
Sacks like a hurricane, wrapped in and shattered I was barely holding on to this flying body symphony I guess I dream in pictures, not colors The true free expression I demand is human rights - right
I gave my life, I am immortal
I'm going, no loss I'm going, no loss I'm going, no loss I'm going, no loss
Nightmare, just a bunch of goddamn, rotten, steaming, raw Deal
Grand Canyons of space and time universal My mind is subjected, subjected to all! Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl! Hooks to my brain are well in. Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl! I know what I am, I'm Berlin. Through cracked, blackened memories of unit dispersal, I face the impregnable wall Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl! Hooks to my brain are well in Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl! I know what I am, I'm Berlin
Exploding, reloading, this quest never ending, Until I give out my last breath! I'm stabbing and bawling, I'm punching and crawling I'm stabbing and bawling, I'm punching and crawling I know what I am, I'm Berlin Hooks to my brain are well in I'm stabbing and bawling, I'm punching and crawling I know what I am, I'm Berlin
