Generation of the dark watch their lives decay Persecuting their 'own kind', there's nothing you can say Don't ask anyone for help, they won't know what to do If you try, if you don't die, you'll end up black and blue Epidemic of addiction, worshipping the pill Drown them all with alcohol, anything for thrills Precious life goes up in smoke, going nowhere fast The world is running rampant and you know that this can't last I want everything that makes me feel alright That feels alive, don't ask me why I want everything, right before my eyes I can't deny I want to be the King! Kingmaker! Searching for an answer, but you see you're all alone Mom and Daddy's lights are on but nobody's home They glorify their tortured life; they talk of days like this Sentencing their children, when they need to eat a fist Narcotics have enslaved them; now it's coming after you Pearls of wisdom hit the floor, there's nothing you can do Out of control, you sell your soul, so blind, you couldn't see Ten feet tall, it made you crawl; it's better you than me I want everything that makes me feel alright That feels alive, don't ask me why I want everything, right before my eyes I can't deny I want to be the King! Kingmaker! I want everything that makes me feel alright That feels alive, don't ask me why I want everything, right before my eyes I can't deny I want to be the King! It makes me feel alive, I want everything It makes me feel alright, I want everything The things I can't deny, I want everything I want to be the King!

I've got a sickening feeling My life is standing still It's clear that fate is closing in But this is the life I choose I've got so much time to kill Born to lose, I'll die to win Burn, baby burn... 'cause it feels so good I'm getting on my own nerves And I get no satisfaction Till I light it up and burn it down One match lights my fire And it starts a chain reaction That burns my crooked past to the ground Burn, baby burn... 'cause it feels so good Burn, baby burn... like I knew it would Fire, I've got the fire Fire, burning desire... my desire to burn [Solo - Dave]

I hear the darkness call The sirens are growing near It's time I make my great escape The flames are getting tall Inside my rear view mirror Just a spark is all it takes

Lately, it seems the world is going crazy It won't be long till they replace me And nothing seems to faze me, anymore I can't take it, I get the feeling I won't make it I'm feeling bad and I can't shake it And now I'm living just to fake it, what's more Which way is right?

Crazy, I'm going crazy, this world's gone crazy I'm falling off the edge Crazy, We're going crazy, this world's gone crazy We're falling off the edge

Sentenced to work a dead end 9 to 5 Trapped in a dingy corporate cubicle hell Then go to work in the darkness on the midnight shift Any chance you get, selling gas at the corner Shell Three letters groups listening in on you Under surveillance courtesy of Big Brother in your car Drones monitor each and every move you make It doesn't matter who you know or who you think you are You'll never see a ray of daylight So far in debt you're struggling to survive But you will break your back fighting and they'll help Before you let them break your pride "Powers that be" will never win; a storm is coming, get ready You better learn to dance in the rain, instead of wait for the sun Learn to dance in the rain, the sun will never come [Solo - Dave]

Down on your luck, you had your hand out once or twice But all you wanted was just a hand, they say "You have the right to remain silent", so shut your mouth Don't mention the broken promises and lies of hope and change "Powers that be" will never win; a storm is coming, get ready You better learn to dance in the rain, instead of wait for the sun Learn to dance in the rain, the sun will never come [Solo - Chris]

Never come, dance in the rain, it ain't gonna come [Solo - Dave]

Enslave and impoverish the middle class Make them dependent then strip it all away Al-CIA-da, destruction, and democide Addiction, corruption, every word's a lie Races, classes, sexes, religious wars Destroy the family, and what love is for The Fed and the Bankers own all the politicians May I introduce you to the sons of perdition? Replace the dictators Washington appointed The Devil Messiahs and the dangerously disappointed They lie to themselves, pleased with what they've done Soon they all will be repaid and there's nowhere to run

This cold, empty house is So quiet now she's gone The dust accumulates into Mountains on the ground My paper's piled on the steps Her flowers all have died I'm searching everywhere For someone I'll never find The haunting never fades, laughter's gone away It's too late, when you've lost your soul I left her everything, she only left my ring My world is darker now than the blackest crow [Slide - Dave]

Shadows fill this place She's been away so long The wallpaper leaves a stain Where pictures once belonged You think I would have known Something was going on Her kisses were so cold Her loving touch withdrawn The haunting never fades, laughter's gone away It's too late, when you've lost your soul I left her everything, she only left my ring My world is darker now than the blackest crow [Solo - Dave]

They never do teach you how to walk away from someone that you love The haunting never fades, laughter's gone away I know t's too late, when you've lost your soul The fires all but gone, my world is darker now Than the blackest crow [Slide - Dave]

The blackest crow...

Sands in the hourglass fall for us all You don't answer me anymore when I call So much is trapped inside, tangled in your brain It's getting cold outside and it looks like rain The sky is falling and my heart is caving in So, now the time has come to say the long goodbye The setting of the sun reflecting in your eyes Day after day after day the world will pass you by, you forget to remember [Solo - Dave]

If this is living, what the hell is living for? You've boarded up your eyes, your mind has locked the door I'm just a stranger now with an unfamiliar face You can't recall me at all, there's not a trace... not a trace... not a trace I don't know where you are and my world is crumbling in So, now the time has come to say the long goodbye The setting of the sun reflecting in your eyes Day after day after day the world will pass you by, you forget to remember [Solo - Chris]

I just want to talk - What do you want? But you've nothing to say - Leave me alone I beg you to come - Get away from me And you just walk away - I have no idea who you are! I curse the day that your smile fades away, till then I pray A burning candle in-between and at both ends With all that we've learned, yet we still pretend I just wish you could say my name again They made the lock and broke the key, the culprit was the mercury The vaccine wipes your memories, till you forget even how to breathe A tangled web they weave, when they practice to deceive So, now the time has come to say the long goodbye The setting of the sun reflecting in your eyes Day after day after day the world will pass you by I said that I'd be strong, but you know I had to lie You forget to remember... it's time to say the long goodbye

When things were good I know you would always be there for me Yes, It's true; friends like you are few and far between I wish I may, I wish I might, the things you do ain't quite right Just ain't right And still we try to pretend That you will be here in the end The best advice that I can lend Don't ever turn your back on a friend Don't turn your back... [Solo - Chris]

[Solo - Dave]

When things were bad you always had something else better to do It's just a lie to think that I could ever mean anything to you You steal what's mine then help me look for it; how many times do I pay for it? How many times? And still we try to pretend That you will be here in the end The best advice that I can lend Don't ever turn your back on a friend And still we try to pretend That you will be here in the end The best advice that I can lend Don't ever turn your back on a friend Don't turn your back...

I put my money in the suitcase And headed for the big race I felt a chill on my backbone As I hung up the telephone Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat Running down the back of my neck To lose means trouble, to win pays double And I got me a heavy bet Cold, cold sweat They say chances on the outside Are looking very slim I've been so lucky on the inside I feel I'm going to win Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat Running down the back of my neck Take a little money, there's nothing left to lose And I got me a heavy bet Cold, cold sweat I've got me a whole month's wages I haven't seen that much in ages I might spend it in stages And move out to las vegas Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat Running down the back of my neck To lose means trouble, to win means double And I got me a heavy bet Cold, cold sweat I put my money in the suitcase They say chances on the outside I got a whole months wages Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat Stone cold crazy Place another bet

In a filthy barroom She was shooting pool with friends I sent someone over And I watched her shake her head, she said

If I wanted to meet her I had to come at least that far I Introduced myself to a look that would kill She sneered, "I know who you are"
