Got it right got it real bad got it right got it real bad painted ponies on the ride promises on the other side got it right got it real bad the devil's in the voodoo the money's in the bank the devil's in the voodoo I got no money in the bank saw the light riding that twisted trail I saw the light riding that twisted trail and silent saviors lost in time sold me waiting at the end of the line I saw the light riding that twisted trail the devil's in the voodoo the money's in the bank the devils in the voodoo I got no money in the bank It's alright that's what they say it's alright that's what they say their blood runs hot and they take it away never never land on the very next day it's alright that's what they say the devil's in the voodoo the money's in the bank the devil's in the voodoo I got no money in the bank.

Shimmer 04:16
In another time in another place love would disappear without a trace like a blackjack game hiding from the queen of spades now I hold you closer don't blink don't look away

My Angel 04:20
Darkness falls and the great golden ball's on the move again traffic lights spread out and the nighttime spreads its wings again you remember the little things and try like hell to forget forgetting's easy to hold onto now Something startled you last night from your sleeping it's that same old dream again you can see it happening the scene is different every time but it always feels the same in the end dreams are easy to hold onto now

I am a revelation man and i've got a deep admiration for some of you striving for the goal paying all the tolls I've got something of a plan I'm going to burn down this revelation land I heard that you finally got busted on the rocky shores of the subdivisions there bright yellow lonely fear wasn't in the promise baby can you hear I'm gonna burn down this revelation land

Let's go down to Tarriffville town let's go down to Tarriffville town see those girls and watch them unfurl and hold their hair unfurl and hold their hair on the front porch just standing there and somewhere along the way somewhere along the way somewhere along the way those times just fade away do you walk with a heart in your hand do you walk with a heart in your hand count tomorrows in the golden sands and you see that wheel of colored light see that wheel of colored light it's the carnival baby it's tonight and somewhere along the way somewhere along the way somewhere along the way those times they just fade away so let's go down to Tarriffville town let's go down to Tarriffville town see those girls and watch them unfurl and hold their hair unfurl and hold their hair on the front porch just standing there standing there

Bullets 05:13
You've been haunted you've been haunted you've been riding all night long you might think about it you might think about it but you know that your thoughts they aren't that strong you got bullets, barbed wire, now you're a gun bullets, barbed wire, now your a gun the dawn is sprawling the dawn is sprawling you reminded me of the western plains I read a book about it read a book about it full of violent stories from those cowboy days your fear is the weapon that you've become bullets, barbed wire, now you're a gun you taught yourself to hear you taught yourself to hear and you learned to move without ever being seen you might think about it you might think about it but your thoughts don't stand a chance against those dreams your fear is the weapon that you've become bullets, barbed wire, now you're a gun there's a place in the wake of the sprawling plains there's a place in the wake of the sprawling plains where the silence meets it's end and you can't turn back and you must press on you can't turn back and you must press on you can't turn back you must press on I could've loved you in any time.

Hold Me Down 03:45
There is no dancing fire on the horizon only soft colors of pink and lavender and now I can say that this death is a sweetness breathing and listening back from the bold underground you hold me down I hear the break release air sounds I hear the break release air sounds life skids to halt only a sunset remains so cash in your chips tighten your lips I'm going down into the bold underground you hold me down.
