lyrics

(Act One)
Freezing fire for the island’s wire
Driven through the pain of darkest desire
Given waste from night and ‘til noon
Crash course for a fatal wound

Amalgamating rock and sex
And an endless line of joy is coming next
The music is what’s fuelling my rage
I’m my most own arrogant lustful sage

The devil had to drive me off the edge
An accidental blackspot to dine
I cannot find the brakes
A plunge to an early death I must take

(Act Two)
A solemn crowd has gathered
Another life is lost
Driven to the edge
By the thoughts left in his head

A burnt-out automobile
On the beach of Fernley Bay
No body was ever found
Yet the sentence still remained

His friends all cry and see
A light ray from the sky
A figure out of nowhere
Walks over to bestow his grace

(Act Three)
From ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Return to haunt, the devil must

Returning from the darkest depths
I’m your sorrow and your bane at best
Never changing and never free
Will I ever rise above?
Well wait and you’ll see

The never-ending sirens
The never-ending booze
What’s next is no lover or friend
Condemned to die again
