Rock 'N' Roll Rebel

They couldn't see what I though would be so obvious
They hide behind the laws that they make for all of us
The ministry of truth that deals with pretense
The ministry of peace that sits on defense
I'm washing my hands of what they're tryin' to do
I'm breaking the rules and its for me and for you

I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel
I'll tell you no lies
They think I worship the devil
They only see through his eyes
I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel

They live their lives in fear and insecurity
And all you do is pay for their prosperity
The ministry of fear that won't let you live
The ministry of grace that doesn't forgive
Do what you will to try and make me conform
But I'll make you wish that you had never been born

Cause I'm a rock 'n' roll rebel
I'll do as I please
I'm a rock 'n' roll rebel
I'm as free as the breeze
I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel

They'll try playin with your heart
The know it rules you head
They only feel what bigotry feels
They won't fool with me again (oh no)

God only knows why they couldn't see the obvious
Is it because that the manifest the incubus
The ministry of war that got caught in the draught
The ministry of joy that still hasn't laughed
When it's all boiled down and the days at an end
I'll give you no bullshit and I'll never pretend

Cause I'm a rock 'n' roll rebel
I'll tell you no lies
They say I worship the Devil
Why don't they open their eyes....I'm just etc..

Bark At The Moon

Screams break the silence
Waking from the dead of night
Vengeance is boiling
He's returned to kill the light
Then when he's found who he's looking for
Listen in awe and you'll hear him

Bark at the moon
Years spent in torment
Buried in a nameless grave
Now he has risen
Miracles would have to save
Those that this beast is looking for
Listen in awe and you'll hear him

Bark at the moon

They cursed and buried him
Along with shame
And thought his timeless soul had gone
In empty burning hell
Uunholy one
But now he's returned to prove them wrong
Oh no

Howling in shadows
Living in a lunar spell
He finds his heaven
Spewing from the mouth of hell

And when he finds who he's looking for
Listen in awe and you'll hear him
Bark at the moon

You're No Different

How many times can you put me down
Till in your heart you realize
If you choose to criticize
You choose your enemies

Everything that I say and do
In your eyes is always wrong
Tell me where do I belong
In this sick society

You're no different to me
You're no different
No different to me

Look at yourself instead of looking at me
With accusation in your eyes
Do you want me crucified
For my profanity

Concealing your crimes behind a grandeur of lies
Tell me where do I begin
If you think that you're without sin
The first to cast the stone

Living my life in a way that I choose
You say I should apologize
Is that envy in your eyes reflecting jealousy

Tell me the truth and I'll admit to my guilt
If you'll try to understand
But is that blood that's on your hand from your democracy

Now You See It (Now You Don't)

Overbearing woman
Making it so hard for me
Now you've laid it down for all to see
Can I ask a question,
D'ya think you can take a blow
This is why I always come and go

Now you see it, now you don't
Careful of words that get caught in your throat
Face the music, take it like a man
Givin' it to me anyway you can

Everybody's feeling everything you've got to feel
I've got something that you can conceal

Now you see it
Now you don't
Now you see it
Now you don't

Give me central heating
Hope that I can pay the bill
Making me forget my fear of hell
Must be luck in odd numbers
Now you face me upside down
I'm so far up I'm afraid to come back down

Centre of Eternity

There's no present
There's no future
I don't even know about the past
It's all timeless and never ending
To take it in
It's all to vast

It goes
Forever and ever
You thought you knew
But you never
There goes
Tomorrow

Journey to the centre of eternity
Journey to the centre of eternity

The time is coming but also going
And it's leaving never to return
Maybe forever it could be heaven
But if it's hell then you can watch me burn

It goes
Forever and ever
You thought you knew But you never
There goes
Tomorrow

Journey to the centre of eternity
Journey to the centre of eternity

I got to travel forever
It's all within my mind
An endless path to endeavor
But forever is a long long time

There's no secrets and no corruption
In the centre of infinity There's no limits in nonexistence
And no beginning to my destiny

It goes
Forever and ever
You thought you knew
But you never
There goes
Tomorrow

Journey to the centre of eternity
Journey to the centre of eternity

So Tired

Time has come to say goodbye
I know it's gonna make you cry
But you belong to another my love
And half a love
That just isn't enough

I am so tired
And I just can't wait around for you
I am so tired
And I always thought we'd see it through

I've waited all this time for you
Believed your promises were true
I kept believe that you mean what you say
You might tomorrow
Now tomorrow's today

I am so tired
And I just can't wait around for you
I am so tired
And I always thought we'd see it through

And I often sit and wonder why
You're not with me tonight
I stayed at home remaining true
While you were out with you know who

I am so tired
And I just can't wait around for you
I am so tired
And I always thought we'd see it through

Slow Down

I'll never bother keeping up with you
Burning the candle at both ends it's true
You know the writing's on the wall
Why do you ride to take a fall

Slow down you're moving way too fast
(Your feet don't ever touch the ground)
Slow down You know you'll never last
(You're seeking that which can't be found)
Slow down your haste is making waste
(Your feet don't ever touch the ground)
Slow down and join the human race
(You're seeking that which can't be found)

I tried to tell you time and time again
You know you'll have to pay the consequence
Now you're obsessed with such a pace
Now slow and steady wins the race

Slow down you're moving way too fast
(Your feet don't ever touch the ground)
Slow down You know you'll never last
(You're seeking that which can't be found)
Slow down your haste is making waste
(Your feet don't ever touch the ground)
Slow down and join the human race
(You're seeking that which can't be found)

You seem to turn around and round in vain
You're like the dog that tries to catch his tail
Tell me just what you're running from
One day you're here and the next you're gone

Slow down you're moving way too fast
(Your feet don't ever touch the ground)
Slow down You know you'll never last
(You're seeking that which can't be found)
Slow down your haste is making waste
(Your feet don't ever touch the ground)
Slow down and join the human race
(You're seeking that which can't be found)

Waiting for Darkness

Waiting for darkness
Doesn't anybody see
Deafened by silence
Doesn't anybody hear
(I'm waiting for darkness)
Playing with fire
But they're screaming
When they're burned
Out of the sunlight
Hasn't anybody learned

I know what they find
Is in their mind
It's what they want to see
spare me from the light
Here comes the night
And here I'll stay
Waiting for darkness

Promise me rebirth
And then you tear me from the womb
Give me my freedom
And then you lock me in a tomb

I'm waiting for darkness
You gotta believe, you gotta believe it's true
I'm waiting for darkness
I just can't conceive why darkness is overdue

Who knows the answers
Is it friend or is it foe
Don't ask me questions
There are things you shouldn't know

Spiders
(on 22 bit Remastered Special Collectors Edition)

Spiders in the night
Creeping round the walls
Now you'll feel them crawling over you

Creepy crawling things
Filling up your bed
Soon you'll feel them crawling through you brain

You think he's there, beware his bite
But when you look, the spiders not in sight

Spiders reappear, taking people's names
Every thing is taken down insane

There's no way out, and there's no key
But here's a clue, the spider's really me

You're written in his book
The spiders won't forget
You won't forget the spiders in the night

You think he's gone, you think he's dead
There's no escape, the spiders in your head
