I see the fires burning I see the fires burning out tonight I see the fires burning I see the fires burning dead! Cause of what I hold in my hands What I hold in my hands Tonight I feel the eyes all coming down on me Everyone's trying to get a tell on just what I seen River gonna carry me down to the end Can't same let the same old stupid shit happen again I see the fires burning I see the fires burning out tonight I see the fires burning I see the fires burning dead! 2, 3, 4!

Burning Out Tonight Part II 03:01
lyrics
buy track
Dancing all alone at the show once again One little fist is all it takes to start a rebellion Don't want to lead them all to the same fate as me But I know you can't help feeling the beat running through your feet Well, Ha Ha Ha! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha! Tonight I see the fires burning out Hell will freeze over if they all start burning in Every night I scream and I sing and I shout I know I'm never, never gonna win Cause I can't quite follow and I can't quite lead And a fate at 27 is it just an urban legend? Everything that do is it everything I need If I want to spend a life sailing all the deadly seas? Count to [1, 2, 3!] Is this my destiny? My final call? [HELL NO!] Oh a life of slavery It's all so quick should I just flow with the tide as it rolls in? Don't let them win! Oh No! Don't let them win! Oh No! Don't let them win! Can't let the same stupid shit happen again! River gonna carry me down to the end Can't let the same old stupid shit happen again I see the fires burning I see the fires burning out tonight! I see the fires burning I see the fires burning dead! I see the fires burning I see the fires burning out tonight! It's all because of what I What I hold in my hands What I hold in my hands What I hold in my hands What I hold in my hands

Lost Souls 02:49
lyrics

I see you peaking through the trees While the full moon glistens on the leaves I cry [woah oh oh oh oh] As the nightmare gets rolling along I rock my chair while singing my favorite song It goes [woah oh oh oh oh] I feel the walls come crashing down Souls begin to gather around I'll be lucky if I hear another sound The pain sets in and [my lights go black tonight!] Time to set sail across the seas For a treasure the souls need to retrieve They cry [woah oh oh oh oh] A barrel of booze and my favorite song Souls stagger and start singing along It goes [woah oh oh oh oh] I feel the walls come crashing down Souls begin to gather around I'll be lucky if I hear another sound The pain sets in and [my lights go black tonight!] [We're lost souls!!!] [We're lost souls!!!] [We're lost souls!!!] [We're lost souls!!!] The alcohol goes straight to my head I think of you and wish I was dead I cry [woah oh oh oh oh] The thought of you touching my skin Is worse than hell after a lifetime of sin I cry [woah oh oh oh oh]

Mutiny 02:34
lyrics
buy track
We're cracking up as the sun beats down Not an ounce of land have we found The Captain keeps pointing out to the sea I can sense another stupid mutiny, oh no. Creepy crawler crawling on my knee And I don't know exactly just what I've seen It does a little dance while I do a little singing The only ones to trust better mean a thing or two. Everyone thinks they sweat of their brow Who's side will you fight for now? Might your friends be really enemies? Who can you trust out on the open seas anymore? A man who can lead at the edge of the sea as we go o'er a waterfall and it plummets us into the deep! Hey! Hey! Hey!Hey! Who's side will you fight for now? Hey! Hey! Hey!Hey! When the Captains run your ship a-ground? Hey! Hey! Hey!Hey! Who's side will you fight for now? Hey! Hey! Hey!Hey! When the Captains run your ship a-ground?

Wrong Place Wrong Time 01:42
lyrics
buy track
Sitting on a slab of rock Singing songs with the other men who'd been caught Planting bombs on the other ships who'd've thought Cannonballs weren't meant as gifts We let the flags fly Closing in on the men screaming "God, Oh why!" "Did I have to be at the wrong place at the wrong time?" "Do I have to die? Do I have to die?" [We're gonna to break out tonight because the sails have come into sight again!] [We're gonna to break out tonight because the sails have come into sight again!] We're gonna break out and find the heads of the men who deserve this instead! Not saying I'm not a horrible man There's people out there that do much worse than I can And I'm not saying what I do is right But there's much worse I can do with my life We let the flags fly Closing in on the men screaming "God, Oh why!" "Did I have to be at the wrong place at the wrong time?" "Do I have to die? Do I have to die?" [We're gonna to break out tonight because the sails have come into sight again!] [We're gonna to break out tonight because the sails have come into sight again!] We're gonna break out and find the heads of the men who deserve this instead! Oh yeah yeah! Oh no no! Oh kill me now!

Deathtraps 02:25
lyrics
buy track
The gallows and shallows and watery graves All masked by the people they've saved And we'll set fire to deathtraps everyday But the captain's soul has been trapped by a gaze A lass who's slapped shackles on our wrath With passion and love for the insane A life of solitude any talented man should choose Over a life destined for pain The captain has gone insane His neck will hold strong while the others hang dead His back has turned to leather for the things that he has said He's been stretched and stretched to the end of his rouse The wench it would take to tame the shrew A loved one is bait for a torturous brigade And time after time she'll have to be saved The captain slumps as he falls into a rage Many lifeless males at the end of his blade Everywhere I look and everything I see Everything I touch and everything I feel Every time I see another broken thing It’s all the words I’ve learned that I cannot repeat All the uselessness I have found at all For drug abuse and alcohol [Everywhere] Will keep me sane until I've played society's game [Everywhere] There's deathtraps, deathtraps, deathtraps everywhere The captain it would seem would fall in love with a dream I life of marriage is not quite what it seems A slave is til the day he is killed And our lady deathtraps, she's everywhere [Deathtraps, Deathtraps, Deathtraps] Everywhere! [Deathtraps, Deathtraps, Deathtraps] Everywhere! [Deathtraps, Deathtraps, Deathtraps] Everywhere! [Deathtraps, Deathtraps, Deathtraps!]

Clock 02:49
lyrics

I hear the clock ticking into the night As the flame flickers out I move into the moonlight Woke to a horrible fright The sounds are all out of sight When did these nightmares turn into my life Oh I must've slept a night and a day Because the creatures breath blowing makes a haze on the rays From the moon creeping into the room Something better happen soon Why do they never have anything good to say Oh I don't want to wake the lot Because it's like a pack of wolves at the end my cot And they don't care much for this song Why don't you sing along? Oh how I wish [Oh how I wish they were dead!] [All the creatures in my head!] [How I wish they were dead!] [There's nothing they can do to stop me now!] I hear the breaths all falling in time If the band could play like this I wouldn't be losing my mind And then the song fades into a dream Life is not as it seems Who let all these monkeys waltz right into the scene I close my eyes and count to ten If this is just a dream Then I'll wake up again To a life full of no surprise Everything we love dies Oh how I wish [Oh how I wish they were dead!] [All the creatures in my head!] [How I wish they were dead!] [There's nothing they can do to stop me now!] [How I wish they were dead!] [All the creatures in my head!] [How I wish they were dead!] [There's nothing they can do to stop me now!] [How I wish they were dead!] [All the creatures in my head!] [How I wish they were dead!] [There's nothing they can do to stop me now!]

They cast of the mooring with a fleet full of four Two for the crew, and two more For the grog they will drink Face down in hell's sink A fistful of darkness A knock on death's door [Ha ha ha] Knock on death's door! [Death's Door! Death's Door!] [Ha ha ha] Knock on death's door! [Death's Door! Death's Door!] [Ha ha ha] Knock on death's door! [Death's Door! Death's Door!] [Ha ha ha] Knock on death's door! While they were asleep The crags did a creep From off in the distance to under their feet The call from crow's nest came down too late None would escape their miserable fates [Ha ha ha] Knock on death's door! [Death's Door! Death's Door!] [Ha ha ha] Knock on death's door! [Death's Door! Death's Door!] [Ha ha ha] Knock on death's door! [Death's Door! Death's Door!] [Ha ha ha] Knock on death's door! [Death's Door!] [Death's Door!] [Death's Door!]

Dance of the Bones 02:30
lyrics

If you find yourself walking alone And the wind starts singing a song And out from nowhere the bones will appear They'll dance around you til you are frightened and scared Don't walk alone Because they'll put you in a trance And the skeletons will make you dance [And you'll never return from the life of the scourge] [And that's why you don't walk alone] You find the party on the move You're up all night drinking your booze You hear rustling leaves coming from the trees They'll dance around you, laugh at you and bring you to your knees Don't make a move Because they'll put you in a trance And the skeletons will make you dance [And you'll never return from the life of the scourge] [And that's why the party stays at home] You find yourself screaming at night The bones will come and turn out all the lights And they'll sing you a song about what you did wrong They'll dance around you, laugh at you and make you dance all night Don't scream at night! Because they'll put you in a trance And the skeletons will make you dance [And you'll never return from the life of the scourge] [And that's why you don't scream at night!] Don't walk alone Don't walk alone Don't walk alone
