Bloody Mary
Can I tell you the tale of a lady that’s wicked?
She stalks through the night
She’s on the prowl again
She just wants a bite
Now and then she makes her move
From her palace of pleasure
Searching out her grave
Blood being treasure
I can see in front of me
It’s Bloody Mary
Bloody Mary
The curse is quite old but still holds the power
Running from daylight
Spreading her wings again
The moon is big and white
Now and then she makes her move
From her palace of pleasure
Searching out her grave
Your soul is her treasure
I can see in front of me
It’s Bloody Mary
Bloody Mary
Can I tell you the tale of a lady that’s wicked?
She stalks through the night
She’s on the prowl again
She just wants a bite
Now and then she makes her move
From her palace of pleasure
Searching out her grave
Blood being treasure
I can see in front of me
It’s Bloody Mary
Bloody Mary

The First One (The Willing)
The first one, he was the willing
To go out on the way
The second was younger
Just a child who liked to play
The last one was the elder
Among the family tree
His mind was filled with wisdom
And he passed it on to me.
So gather round the table
And hear just what I say
The time has come to realize
You’re lost without a way
Your light is in the window
Just a candle burning low
Your chains are all around you
And you don’t know where to go
Take my hand child
I can pull you through
Take my hand child
I’ll show you must what you must do
Take my hand child
It can be alright
Take my hand child
Freedom comes tonight
Life has many chances
Some are lost and some are found
Trails are so confusing
They’ll spin you round and round
At times you hold the answer
At time you’re told a lie
Waiting for the laughter
A tear comes from your eye
They’ll feed you to the lions
And take your precious gold
Be careful of the leaders
They’ll steal the mind and soul
Of all the tiny babies
And children of the land
Take head and rise against it
The time has come to stand
Take my hand child
I can pull you through
Take my hand child
I’ll show you must what you must do
Take my hand child
It can be alright
Take my hand child
Freedom comes tonight
Over And Over
As I walk out here tonight
My mind it fills with fright
But the message you are sending
Assures me it’s alright
So the story, I can tell you
Well, it comes from long ago
But believe me I can tell you
Well, it’s one we all should know
All the people give the answer
To the fools who pay them mind
But the answer to the question
Shall be revealed to all through time.
It goes over and over
The same story over
Over and over
The same story over
All your questions will be answered
And your mind I can put to rest
Because one thing that is understood
Is we are all put to the test
As I look in your eye and you’re wondering why
This madness reigns tonight
Please believe me I am just like you
And I’ve got to see daylight
It goes over and over
The same story over
Over and over
The same story over
But if you’re frightened, it can be smitened
By the hand controlling time
It’s upon you to decide now
Just what you’ve got to do
You must remember of the lesson
That was written so long ago
All that glitters all around you
Will not guarantee its gold
It goes over and over
The same story over
Over and over
The same story over
As I walk out here tonight
My mind it fills with fright
But the message you are sending
Assures me it’s alright

Creeping Grey
When you were just a boy
You wanted to be a man
I remember my father shaving
Cause I was holding his hand
In the midst of the glory days
You think they’d last forever
Those things go by so quickly
The time is now or never
Cause it’s one the way
It’s here to stay
I’m on the way
Creeping grey.
Now I made some decision
Not good some bad
I am not the guilty party
It’s all the love that I had
Thinking back on childhood days
Can bring a tear to my eye
Those dreams are not forgotten
And now I’m gonna try
Cause it’s one the way
It’s here to stay
I’m on the way
Creeping grey
When I woke up this morning
I shoved the things into place
And I looked in the mirror
The lines have covered my face
All the goals that I conquered
And the battles I lost
Life seems to race right by me
Now I can measure the cost
Cause it’s one the way
It’s here to stay
I’m on the way
Creeping grey

Time For the Show
You can kick me out
Lock the door
Never see my face no more
Eyes of red, eyes of blue
It’s all the same for me and you
So let me go
It’s time for the show
If you must know
It’s time for the show
The sound of footsteps
Through my head
Think of lines and dots instead
Thoughts of doing makes me lazy
Thoughts of losing makes me crazy
So let me go
It’s time for the show
If you must know
It’s time for the show
You go backstage
You hear the roar
They quiet down
But they want some more
The rockin’ world is all you see
Then I go into my little dream
The show is over
You start to leave
The crowd surrounds you
They grab your keys
Screaming fans will get you back on stage
The show is over now turn the page
So let me go
It’s time for the show
If you must know
It’s time for the show

Tunnel Vision
I’ve seen this face on times before
A thousand years, maybe more
You have come to hunt me down
But I’m not one to be pushed around
I’m not one to be pushed around
I’ve been the liar on the stand
Forced to speak upon command
I am hungry for the truth
And to be only set loose
And to be only set loose
Set me free
I am tired of the water
And the bread that they give me
Hear them talking just in circles
Confirming life’s insanity
It’s been said over again
Live your life until the end
But one thing you must surmise
Is the beauty of the final prize
As you look into your mind
The question’s answer you will find
As you learn about the game
Let your mind not be the same
No not the same
I’ve been thinking of our future
Hold the key unlock the door
Tempted all of us are fragile
So see just what you can see
You’re only here for a while
As you lie awake in bed
Visions dancing through your head
And you feel so all alone
Dark and cold just like a stone
Must we all walk this road alone
Past fire, water, and the cold
And be shaken by the wind
To start all over again
