Black Label Society Album

I thought I knew who you were
I thought I did, now I ain't so sure
I can't believe what I see
I take a look and I know what you need

Out of your mind
Oh, you must be crazy or high
Out of your mind
Oh, you must be crazy or high

Days have changed and rolled by
They are forever 'till the day that I die
You tried to kill me again
I feel no pain although the scars never mend

Out of your mind
Oh, you must be crazy or high
Out of your mind
Oh, you must be crazy or high

Out of your mind
Oh, you must be crazy or high
Out of your mind

Hey now,
I've stepped into the black
I say hey now
I wont be coming back
I say hey now
I've left it all behind
I say hey now
Take a look but you won't find, no

Step outside this world where I'll be free, yeah
Step outside this world where I can see, oh
Queen of sorrow and all this hell within
Oh, I close my eyes and sit back as I watch my end begin

Hey now
Void of sight and sound
I say hey now
The spiral always down
I say hey now
There ain't no coming back
I say hey now
I've stepped into the black now

Step outside this world where I'll be free, yeah
Step outside this world where I can see, oh
Queen of sorrow and all this hell within, oh
Oh, I close my eyes and sit back as I watch my end begin

Step outside this world where I'll be free, yeah
Step outside this world where I can see, oh
Queen of sorrow and all this hell within

I've tried, I've tried (I've tried)
Oh, I've tried
I've been bought and sold (and sold)
One too many times

I ain't your puppet, no
And I ain't your steppin' stone
I should have looked before I jumped
I should have known

Out and down (and down)
Lost and never found
Deaf and blind (and blind)
Insane and out of mind

I ain't your puppet, no
And I ain't your steppin' stone
I should have looked before I jumped
I should have known
I ain't your puppet, no
And I ain't your steppin' stone
I should have looked before I jumped
I should have known

I ain't your puppet, no
And I ain't your steppin' stone
I should have looked before I jumped
I should have known
I ain't your puppet, no
And I ain't your steppin' stone
I should have looked before I jumped

Something's always going on
Whatever's right is always wrong
But I don't mind, I don't mind
The clouds are here, sun has come
So confused, so numb
But I don't mind, I don't mind

Burnt and faded out
Faded out, faded out
Burnt and faded out
Faded out

Take all I can in stride
No you ain't the only one in this life
Now I don't mind, I don't mind
Once you find yourself over here
Next you find yourself over there
But I don't mind, I don't mind

Burnt and faded out
Faded out, faded out
Burnt And Faded out
Faded out

Ain't no, ain't no yesterdays
Forget tomorrow, forget it all
We've got today.
Oh there ain't no yesterdays
Forget tomorrow, forget it all

[No lyrics]

You say that you're down, now
Can't find a place to rest your head
The leaves have all fallen
And your garden is dead
Turning your back now
Ain't nothing left to say
No need for tomorrow
When you can't find today

When you can't find today, oh
When you can't find today, oh
Search all you want, oh
Well you won't find it here, oh
Well the fortunes you seek, oh
They were always right here
They were always right here

Alone once again, now
Walked a mile inside your head
This movie's been played now
All is done and all is said
You're running so fast now
You can't get away
No need for tomorrow
When you can't find today

When you can't find today, oh
When you can't find today, oh
Search all you want, oh
Well you won't find it here, oh
Well the fortunes you seek, oh
They were always right here
They were always right here

When you can't find today, oh
When you can't find today, oh
Search all you want, oh
Well you won't find it here, oh
Well the fortunes you seek, oh
They were always right here, oh
Search all you want, oh
It was always right here

Run, run away
Close your mouth
Don't you say
Scared, and all alone
The door is closed
Ain't no one's home
You speak
But no one hears
Brace yourself
Your darkest fears
The sick and twisted mind
Has sought you out
It's come to find

She, she deserves a free ride
She, she deserves a free ride
She, she deserves a free ride

Val, don't you cry
You ain't to blame
Don't wonder why
The sick and twisted mind
Search for peace
For you shall find

She, she deserves a free ride
She, she deserves a free ride
She, she deserves a free ride

She, she deserves a free ride
She, she deserves a free ride

Take all that you can
Take it all
I know you'll do it again
Rape, rape me again
I'll take the fall
I know you'll do it again

Oh, another truth
And there's nowhere you can hide
Oh, in this house of doom
No one gets out alive
Oh, once you step inside
No one gets out alive

You lie, and you lie again
You've got your plans
And you sure ain't no friend
Oh, there ain't no turning back
They say "you reap what you sow"
Hell, if that ain't a fact!

Oh, another truth
And there's nowhere you can hide
Oh, in this house of doom
Ain't no one gets out alive
Oh, once you step inside
No one gets out alive

Oh, another truth
And there's nowhere you can hide
Oh, in this house of doom
Ain't no one gets out alive
Oh, once you step inside

I paved this road
I broke myself in two
This I know
Up and down, In between
There's nothing I haven't seen

All these scars which bear my name, yeah
My eyes are wide, ain't nothing's the same, yeah
I tried to run, but the damage is done, yeah
The damage is done
The damage is done

Where I've gone and where I've been
One only knows
One more mountain, one more mile
I'll do as I'm told

All these scars which bear my name, yeah
My eyes are wide, ain't nothing's the same, yeah
I tried to run, but the damage is done, yeah
The damage is done
The damage is done

Oh yeah, oh yeah
The damage is done
Oh yeah, oh yeah
The damage is done
Oh yeah, oh yeah
The damage is done
Oh yeah, oh yeah
The damage is done

All these scars which bear my name, yeah
My eyes are wide, ain't nothing's the same, yeah
I tried to run, but the damage is done, yeah
the damage is done
the damage is done

Oh yeah, oh yeah
The damage is done
Oh yeah, oh yeah
The damage is done
Oh yeah, oh yeah
The damage is done
Oh yeah, oh yeah
The damage is done
Oh yeah, oh yeah
The damage is done
Oh yeah, oh yeah
The damage is done
Oh yeah, oh yeah

This fear that clouds my mind
This fear that just won't die
Blacked out this world
Nothing's pure, nothing's real

Oh, I'm just bidding my time
'Till I wave Goodbye

If I could, you know I'd die
The final rest, just one big lie
This trip that's broke my back
My death is war, it's where I'm at

Oh, I'm just bidding my time
'Till I wave Goodbye
Oh, Goodbye
Oh, Oh, Oh yeah

In the end, all will be fine
I'm losing your mind
Life is short, we all run out of time
This darkness that's set in your room
Close your eyes, we're all leaving soon
But now, I'm going away

Woman, don't you cry
Woman, don't you cry

This ain't the first or the last
Goodbyes come so fast
The darkness that's here, it never ends
Always so close yet so far
I've seen the blood and the scars
Right now, I'm going away

Woman, don't you cry
Woman, don't you cry

Woman, don't you cry
Woman, don't you cry

Woman, don't you cry
Woman, don't you cry

Woman, don't you cry

Stoned once again
How long has it been?
Oh, there can be no other
My ever constant fix
For in the stream which drowns my sin
Oh, there can be no other

Oh, could I be wrong, could I be wrong, oh no
Oh, it's where I fear I belong
Oh, I've lost myself along the way
Oh, yeah, ain't got nothing left to say
I've burnt my bridge to the past
And I buried my broken bones
How I long for what I once had known

Cinder blocks and chains
Laid by the insane
Oh, there can be no other
Worthless to the core
Diseased forever more
Oh, there can be no other

Oh, could I be wrong, could I be wrong, oh no
Oh, it's where I fear I belong
Oh, I've lost myself along the way
Oh, yeah, ain't got nothing left to say
I've burnt my bridge to the past
And I buried my broken bones
How I long for what I once had known

Oh, could I be wrong, could I be wrong, oh no
Oh, it's where I fear I belong
Oh, I've lost myself along the way
Oh, yeah, ain't got nothing left to say
I've burnt my bridge to the past
And buried my broken bones
How I long for what I once had known
How I long for what I once had known

[Procol Harum cover]

We skipped the light fandango
And turned cartwheels across the floor
Yeah, I was feeling kind of seasick
But the crowd called out for more, yeah, oh yeah
And the room was humming harder
And as the ceiling flew away
We called out for another drink, oh yeah
The waiter brought the tray

And so it was that later, yeah
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said there is no reason
And the truth is plain to see
But I wandered through my playing cards
And I would not let her be, oh, oh yeah
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And oh, and my eyes were open
They might just as well have been closed

And so it was that later, oh
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale, oh yeah

Oh, and so it was, yeah, oh later
The miller told his tale
Yeah her face was kinda ghostly

Once more
Forever 'till the end of time
Forever found
Think what you may, but honey I ain't blind

Lost in the shuffle like a child all alone
Count my days for the end is my home
Once more
Forever 'till the end of time

Oh

Once more
I kill myself again
Once more
I'm a slave to the goddamn end

Lost in the shuffle like a child all alone
Counting my days for the end is my home
Once more
Forever 'till the end of time

The sun that's set on our souls
All that's lost as the day is old
When the truth becomes one big lie
So low you never know when you're high
And you thought that you knew it all
Think again, in the end we all fall
When the truth becomes one big lie
So low you never know when you're high

Oh, back home
Oh, back home
Oh, the fear of being alone

The floors that rattle and shake through my head
The doors that slam that wake me in bed
When the truth becomes one big lie
So low you never know when you're high

Oh, back home
Oh, back home
Oh, the fear of being alone
Oh, the fear of being alone

Oh, the fear of being alone
Oh, the fear of being alone
