"Backslider"

Bended knee,
Nine years old
Waiting for
Just one word!

I was thinking of all the things
My daddy told me of
Sin and salvation
And manhood and dignity.

All that time
In the dark
Just one word
Backslider!

I remember the day i stepped
Into the water
My dad he held me in his hands
And pushed my head under and said...

.....son i am
So proud
Just one word
Backslider!

Well i opened my eyes up wide
Daddy held me in his hands
Looked up through the water and
thought I saw Jesus and then...

I threw up my hands!
And I heard Amen!
And I screamed sweet Jesus!
Don't let me become a backslider!

"Possum Kingom"

Make up your mind
Decide to walk with me
Around the lake tonight
Around the lake tonight
By my side.

I'm not gonna lie
I'll not be a gentleman
Behind the boathouse
I'll show you my dark secret!

I'm not gonna lie
I want you for my
My blushing bride
My lover be my lover yeah!

Don't be afraid
I didn't mean to scare you
So help me Jesus

I can promise you
You will stay as beautiful
With dark hair
and soft skin
Forever,
Forever.

Make up your mind
Make up your mind

And i promise you
I will treat you well
My sweet angel
So help me Jesus

Give it up to me
Give it up to me
Do you wanna be my angel?
So help me!

...Be my angel
...Be my angel

DO YOU WANNA DIE?!

And i promise you
I will treat you well
My sweet angel
So help me Jesus
Jesus
Jesus
Jesus...

"Quitter"

Didn't i give you everything?
Didn't I take you where you wanna be?
Didn't I make you feel just like a queen?
And all that time i thought that i was getting something right.

Look me in the eyes and tell me something.
Am I supposed to walk away with nothing?
Do i convince myself we never happened?
I guess i won't be denied
I'm getting something right.

Lover!
Are you happy now?
quitter...QUITTER!

In the coming days the dust will cover
All the evidence of your first lover
I hope wherever you are now you'll wake up
And see just what a mess you've made of this
Because i'm getting something right.

Lover!
Are you happy now?
quitter...QUITTER!

"Away"

You say forever
And i confess I shiver
You say hope
I say that's where i'm going

To be in the shade
The oldest trees above my head
When i'm away i know in my heart
There is a heaven

If i'm out hunting
Come right on in yeah
And even when i'm gone...
My doors are always open

And if i'm asleep
Make sure my blanket covers me yeah!

When i'm away i know in my heart
There is a heaven
When i'm away
To be in the shade
The oldest trees above my head
When i'm away
I know in my heart
There is a heaven

Come right on in, yeah...

"I Come From the Water"

I come from the water
I crawled up on the shore
I left my brother there
I got what I came for

I sucked that hot air in
And rolled up on the sand
Emerged beneath the sun
To be a man

I Come From the Water

I Come From the Water
That wern't no easy thing
It's more than nature
It's like my destiny

I stood up on these legs
And held my head up high
Emerged beneath the sun
To start a new life

I Come From the Water

Life in the desert
Just to be together
The sand forever
The same forever
It moves beneath me
It moves my body
My pulse beats hotter
So far from the water

I love to see the sun
In spite of all he's done
I pray for shade and rain
I pray to live again

I Come From the Water.

"Tyler"

And she runs
Through her days
With a smile on her face
And she runs, and she waits
And I wait

We can drive to anyplace
Day or night
To cross this space
and in the morning
Into mexico
We will wake up

I find a window out in the kitchen
Where i let myself in
Rummage through the refridgerator
Find myself a beer
I can't believe i'm really here
And she's lying in that bed
I can almost feel her touch
And her anxious breath!

I stumbled in the hallway
Outside her bedroom door
I hear her call out to me
I hear the fear in her voice
She pulls the covers tighter
I press against the door
I WILL BE WITH HER TONIGHT!

"Happyface"

I tried to wish you away
I'll do more than wishin' some day
No no no more son of a bitch
No no no more wishin'
No no no more son of a bitch
No more happyface!

You and I have nothing more to say
We'll do more than talking someday
No no no more son of a bitch
No more talkin'
No no no more son of a bitch
No more happyface!

No no no more son of a bitch
No more talkin'
No no no more son of a bitch
No more happyface!

If I
Could find
The will
To KILL!

....Here we go again

No no no more son of a bitch
No no no more talkin'
No no no more son of a bitch
No more happyface!

If I
Could find
The will
To KILL!

Well i'll kill you son of a bitch!

"Velvet"

Get away!
Get away!

You hurt me you fuck!
You hurt me you fuck!
You hurt me you fuck!
You hurt me!

Stop it!
Stop it!

You hurt me you cunt!
You hurt me you cunt!
You hurt me you cunt!
You hurt me!

Mother
Father
Mother
Father

Get away!
Get away!
You hurt me you fuck!
You hurt me you fuck!
You hurt me you fuck!
You hurt me!

"I Burn"

Driftin' upward
Gently liftin'
Lazy on the wind

Rollin' over
Turnin' slowly
Beginning and the end

Fire is bright
Fire is clean
Never so alive

Smoke is freedom
Flame is mercy
I am free tonight

And I Burn
I Burn

Stoke the embers
Clense the spirit
A prayer in every spark

Feel the lick of
Bad religion
The finish and the start

In the beginning
We were smarter
The flame was heaven sent
Through the ages
We got stupid
Now we must repent

And I Burn
I Burn

Sift the ashes
Full reminder
Stony things remain

Tooth and bone
Charmed to know
I have left these things

Because fire is bright
Fire is clean
Efficient and devine

Tooth and bone
Charmed to know
I am free tonight

And I burn!
The air!
You breathe!

I Burn!
The air!
You breathe!

I Burn
I Burn
I Burn..
