GIFT FROM THE DEVIL

Some say I bought her, some say I sold her.
Some say I saved her from drowning in the water.
Some say she was waiting, hidden up on a shelf.
Sent to me in a package deal by the red man himself.

A gift from the Devil to get the job done,
with a hidden note that read "Killing you will be fun!"
But, the gift was broken by a second son
and sent back to the Devil in the bullet of a gun.

Some say that a demon had a lesson to learn.
Some say she was schooled on that shelf to burn.
I say that the Devil plays a game he can't win,
sending me a dusty demon who could never be my friend.

THE LONG WAY HOME

I walk on cracked sidewalks down a dirty street
where dark minds of evil walk slow.
The black night has a shade drawn on the moon
taking away all of it's glow.
My footsteps are quick doing the Oriental walk,
the pace of my fears taking me home.
As I walk on cracked sidewalks down a dirty street
the dark minds of evil walk slow.

And it's a long way home past dark shadows
that are cast on the darkness of the night.
It's a long way home where cages rattle
barring the demons from the light.
But soon I'll reach the home fires
and shed the chill in my bones
with the warmth of familiar faces
but for now, it's a long way home.

ON THE WIND

You can't cut my wings 'cause I'm flying too high.
No, you can't cut my wings and try to change my life.
If I'm flying too high, it's just one of those things.
I always land on my feet and you can't cut my wings.
Some days I catch the wind and I fly so high.
Some days I'm with my friends, as we soar through the sky
Some days I hit the ground and I wonder why
I don't catch the wind and spread my wings to fly.
Spread my wings to fly.
