Say your prayers little one
don't forget, my son
to include everyone
tuck you in, warm within
keep you free from sin
till the sandman he comes
sleep with
one eye open
gripping your
pillow tight
exit: light
enter: night
take my hand
off to never never land
something's wrong, shut the
light
heavy thoughts tonight
and they aren't of snow white
dreams of war, dreams of liars
dreams of dragon's fire
and of things that will bite
sleep with
one eye open
gripping your
pillow tight
exit: light
enter: night
take my hand
off to never never land
now I lay me down to sleep
pray the lord my soul to keep
if I die before I wake
pray the lord my soul to take
hush little baby, don't say a
word
and never mind that noise you heard
it's just the beast under your bed,
in your closet, in your head
exit: light
enter: night
grain of sand
exit: light
enter: night
take my hand
we're off to never never land

I'm your pain while you repay
you know it's Sad But True
YOU!
you're my mask
you're my cover, my shelter

I'm your truth, telling lies
I'm your reasoned alibis
I'm inside open your eyes

Holier Than Thou
No more!
the craps rolls out your mouth
again
haven't changed, your brain is
still gelatin
little whispers circle around your
head
why don't you worry about yourself
instead
who are you? where ya been?
where ya from?
gossip is burning on the tip of
your tongue
you lie so much you believe
yourself
judge not lest ye be judged
yourself
Holier than
thou
you are
holier than thou
you are
you know not
before you judge me take a look
at you
can't you find somethig better to
do
point the finger, slow to
understand
arrogance and ignorance go hand in
hand
it's not who you are it's who
you know
others lives are the basis of your
own
burn your bridges build them back
with wealth
judge not lest ye be judged
yourself
Holier than
thou
you are
holier than thou
you are
you know not

New blood joins this earth
and quikly he's subdued
through constant pain disgrace
the young boy learns their rules
with time the child draws in
this whipping boy done wrong
deprived of all his thoughts
the young man struggles on and on
he's known
a vow unto his own
that never from this day
his will they'll take away
what I've
felt
what I've known
never shined
through in what I've shown
never be
never see
won't see what
might have been
what I've
felt
what I've known
never shined
through in what I've shown
never free
never me
so I dub thee
unforgiven
they dedicate their lives
to running all of his
he tries to please them all
this bitter man he is
throughout his life the same
he's battled constantly
this fight he cannot win
a tired man they see no longer
cares
the old man then prepares
to die regretfully
that old man here is me
what I've
felt
what I've known
never shined
through in what I've shown
never be
never see
won't see what
might have been
what I've
felt
what I've known
never shined
through in what I've shown
never free
never me
so I dub the
unforgiven
you labeled
me
I'll label you
so I dub the
unforgiven

Liberty or death, what we so
proudly hail
once you provoke her, rattling of
her tail
never begins it, never, but once
engaged...
never surrenders, showing the fangs
of rage
don't tread on me
so be it
threaten no more
to secure peace
is to prepare for war
so be it
settle the score
touch me again
for the words that you'll hear evermore...
don't tread on me
love it or live it, she with the
deadly bite
quick is the blue tongue, forked as
lighting strike
shining with brightness, always on
surveillance
the eyes, they never close, emblem
of vigilance
don't tread on me

All that is, was and will be
universe much too big to see
time and space never ending
disturbing thoughts, questions
pending
limitations of human understanding
too quick to criticize
obligation to survive
we hunger to be alive
all that is,
ever
ever was
will be ever
twisting
turning
through the
never
in the dark, see past our eyes
pursuit of trhuth no matter where
it lies
gazing up to the breeze of the
heavens
on a quest, meaning, reason
came to be, how it begun
all alone in the family of the sun
curiosity teasing everyone
on our home, third stone from the
sun
all that is,
ever
ever was
will be ever
twisting
turning
through the
never
on through the never
we must go
on through the never
out of the
edge of forever
we must go
on through the never
then never comes
all that is,
ever
ever was
will be ever
who we are
ask forever
twisting
turning

never

So close no matter how far

trust I seek and I find in you
every day for us something new
open mind for a different view

Pride you took
pride you feel
pride that you felt when you'd

I see faith in your eyes

I hear faith in your cries
broken is the promise, betrayal

find your peace
find your say

left you cold and him in grave

You just stood there screaming
fearing no one was listening to you
they say the empty can rattles the
most
the sound of your voice must soothe
you
hearing only what you want to hear
and knowing only what you've heard
you, you're smothered in tragedy
you're out to save the world
misery
you insist that
the weight of the world
should be on
your shoulders
misery
there's much
more to life than what you see
my friend of
misery
you still stood there screaming
no one caring about these words you
tell
my friend before your voice is gone
one man's fun is another's hell
these times are sent to try men's
souls
but something's wrong with all you
see
you, you'll take it on all yourself
remember, misery loves company

you insist that

Reaching out for something
you've got to feel
while clutching to what you had
thought was real
kicking at a dead horse pleases

no way of showing your gratitude
so many things you don't want to do

lose
what the hell
what is you think you're gonna
find?

struggle
within it suits you fine

grabbing for something tou've got
