1. Mercy
2. Long, Long Way to Go
3. Take Me Up
4. The Burning Man
5. Heaven's Hung in Black

Απο τον συγκεκριμένο δίσκο ΟΛΑ είναι αγαπημένα -πως θα μπορούσε να μην είναι αφού είναι τραγουδάρες-

Οι υπόλοιποι ας απολαύσουν τους Blackie Lawless -φωνή κιθάρα- Doug Blair -κιθάρα- Mike Duda -μπάσο- και Mike Dupke -τύμπανα-
I'm gonna take you, lay you face
Down on my bed
On bloody roses see you smile
Oh, your screaming heart is bleeding
Black and beating loud
You got no prayer nowhere
There ain't no way out tonight
Gonna make you cry for mercy
I'll make you cry out loud
You're gonna lie and curse me
Hurt me, burn me now
Gonna make you cry for mercy
Nobody never gonna hear you now
I'll make you mine but first I
I'll make you cry out loud
Out loud
Oh, out loud
Oh, out loud
I feel your face embrace the sweat
Fall from my head
My name in vain and flames you cry
Oh, and you blood lips you raise to kiss
Away goodbye
You wicked bitch I'll take you
Take you and make you mine
Where you gonna turn to
Burning Bush's lie
God he's listening to ain't mine no
Big oil is wicked master
Slave god of gasoline
Ride the Armageddon mile
Sow your seed asunder
Kill you for a smile
Knead your beast and watch it rise
Feed your children to the
Halibutron war machine
Game is fixed and you're all blind
But still to get along we gotta
Long, long way to go
Oh, oh, oh no nearer to God we gotta
Long, long way to go
You sing a bloody song, you gotta
Long, long way to go
Bastard, bloody bastard
Bastard, bloody bastard
Close your eyes, make me last forever
Hold inside, immortal mine
Close my eyes, lay me down in heaven
Embrace my lie, your sole in time
Won't you take me up inside you
Am I more than you can take
I'll be your father's heart of darkness
When you wake
Black blood is pounding drive your
Heart through my stake
Slide up inside you 'til your
Heart starts to break
Won't you take me up inside you
Am I more than you can take
Hide me deep inside and let me
Be the one forsaken
Won't you take me up inside you
'Couse ther's no more I can wait
Hold me in your eyes until there's
No more of you that I can take
Is it taste of bloody kisses
Is it more than you can fake
Feel me deep inside you
Is it your faith that I shake
Forgive me father for your
Sins that I break
My hand to the promised land
Your soul that I pray
Kids, your wives, your lives, your babies
Hang the wire round the necks of liars alright
Rain man of fire from the hells of Hades
I see your face inside the blazes
Hang 'em higher breathe the fire all night
Oh run, run, daddy's got a shotgun
On your knees tonight
And never return
Oh run, run, daddy's riding shotgun
On your knees to die
The devil's begging to burn
You better run
Hang high your burning man of prey
Your gonna burn
Oh, hang your burning man and pray
You never live to see him burn again
The seed you sow coming home to hate you
Breed your greed is there none to save you
Hang the liar red with fire alright
A great seal to kneel for domination
Kill their king did you think they'd save you
Give me fire and kill the liar all night
Ash to Ash, dust to be
Face in flames, your effigy
The night time sky and see
The burning man's a liar
The devil's begging to burn
I can't take anymore
I have no more wings
I can't take anymore
The gates of heaven sealed
Don't you hear me
Don't you hear me
Don't you fear me
Of never coming back
Do you know what it's like
When heaven's hung in black
I can't take anymore
Our walls are black and bleed
I can't take anymore
No rooms here for your screams
Don't you hear me
Don't you hear me
Don't you fear me
Of never coming back
Oh, no more tears please
Hanging heaven black
No don't you leave me to die
Don't you leave me to die
Don't you leave me to die
No don't you leave me to die
And you'll know what it's like
The wailing wall of sighs
Hanging heaven black
And you'll know what it's like
When paradise is blind
When heaven's hung in black
Time? How can you say
That I've no time
Am I blind? Now you say that
Heaven's blind, yeah
Across the bridge of sighs, blind, time, time
Oh lord, don't you leave me to die
No, don't you leave me to die
Don't you leave me to die
No lord, don't you leave me to die
And you'll know what it's like
The wailing wall of sighs
Hanging heaven black
And you'll know what it's like
When paradise is blind
Painting heaven black
Across the bridge of sighs
Your losing heaven's light
Heavens hung in black
Now lay me down
A crown of thorns falls from my head
My Lord you see my knees I fall
There's never been no time I ever been denied
Almighty Lord
Oh, God in Heaven gonna give me all I want
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, woow
My God's gimme, gimme
All that Heaven's blessed
And everytime give me everything I prayed I'd be
Ooh, my God's given to me all that Heaven gives
Oh, and everytime give me everything I believe I need

Rising from the dead
My blood feet and knees I crawl
And my tithies he give me seven times
Gonna give me all I want
Oh, God in heaven gonna give me all I want
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, woow

Sudden death in overtime

Oh my Lord, don’t you leave me to die
And you'll know what it's like
Painting heaven black
And you'll know what it's like
Hanging heaven black
I heard the rythm
I was rocking at two
I had the rock & roll blues
I had a vision
Down at the Crossroads
To give the devil the news
Gimme a name
And all the Hell I can raise
No I had nothing to lose
I wanted fame but now
The price that you claim's oh
My soul be given to you
'Cause I won't make no deal
With the devil tonight
No I won't make no deal
To give my life
'Cause I won't make no deal
With the devil tonight
No I won't make no deal
To give my life
I got a plan and I
I got a band
The road to paying my dues
A million times he shoved that
Dotted line at me
To sing away my blues
Oh, the pen he had
Had my blood on his hands
For All eternity too
Don't sell your soul to
No rock & roll crossroads
He'll com collecting his due
'Cause I won't make no deal
With the devil tonight
No I won't make no deal
To give my life
'Cause I won't make no deal
With the devil tonight
No I won't make no deal
To give my life
'Cause I won't make no deal
With the devil tonight
No I won't make no deal
To give my life
'Cause I won't make no deal
With the devil tonight
No I won't make no deal
To give my life
There ain't no deal
No there ain't no deal
No deal no devil here tonight
There ain't no deal
No there ain't no deal
No deal no devil here tonight
No I won't make no deal
Oh, tonight
No I won't make no deal
No, tonight
