Headed southbound to Rockford
Burning every bridge as we go woah woah
We got a cop hogtied in the back of trunk
Because he wouldn't let my brothers go
Well then I bumped into Molly and ooh good golly
I hope we make it time for the show
Never heading back to Rockford
Where our night took a turn
Folk got robbed cops got called
And we were left out to burn
We're never heading back to Rockford
Rockford, Illinois
If you're heading that way
You might as well stay
Rockford, Illinois
Okay Joe
Well the first band a bunch of hipsters
Wearing their cutoff jeans
The next band up they were dark and edgy
And their music was loud and mean
Well the end of the night resulted in strife
When the gunmen came our way
Never heading back to Rockford
Where our night took a turn
Folk got robbed cops got called
And we were left out to burn
We're never heading back to Rockford
Rockford, Illinois
If you're heading that way
You might as well stay

My mind is deprived from a healthy believing yeah
Trying to survive between passion and reason

Broken Man
06:53
|

Well I have died a thousand deaths
Searching for a life worth leading yeah
Internal scars lashed on my back
True signs of a soul depleted yeah
But I'm gone
The sun shall rise on the broken man
Who wore his heart on his sleeve
Trial after trial ruptured the seams
Scar tissue left to bleed
False courtesies held in thrall
Parodies of life dealing in strife oh yeah
Sunken sons crowding the halls
And knocking on the doors of meaning yeah
But they're closed
You know that they're closed
You know that they're closed
You know that they're closed
You know that they're closed
You know that I'm gone
You know that I'm gone
You know that I'm gone
The sun shall rise on the broken man
Who wore his heart on his sleeve
Trial after trial ruptured the seams
Scar tissue left to bleed
Oh yeah
I saw the world for what it was
I saw the faithless people fall
I saw the broken rise again
Following that faithful call
Woah woah
I saw the world for what it was (What it was)
I saw the faithless people fall
I saw the broken rise again (Rise again)
Following that faith
That faithful call
Woah woah woah woah
Yeah

You done seen my face
Before and after you done me wrong
Well baby you done seen my face
Before and after you done me wrong yeah
Saw you creeping around the headstones baby
Lost in your wicked grace
Oh yeah
I seen you do this dance before love
When the silver sun is high in the sky
Woof
Well I should've seen through your dirty lies
Took my heart and gone on home
Don't you know
Don't you know I'll never leave you baby
I'm caught in your wicked grace
Oh yeah
Okay
Ten years done came and went
And your memory's still haunting me
Said the ten, the ten, the ten, the ten
The ten years done came and went
Since this woman put the devil in me
Please won't you help me
Find the man I was before
Before this woman put a spell on me
The clouds done cleared now yeah
I finally got some peace of mind
I said the curse is lifted
And the sun is shining, shining bright
Well I can see clearly now
Now that I'm free from your
Wicked grace
Yeah

Up here in the clouds
I can see for many miles
Everywhere the sun hits
And everyone that smiles
Up here in the heavens
Can't help but wonder why
All my problems disappear
While floating through the sky
Oh yeah
Floating through the sky
Oh yeah
Floating through the sky
Drifting through the universe
It's very clear to see
All the rest are better off
Now my soul is free
Maybe there's a god above
Maybe empty skies
Nothing matters anymore
Now I've learned to fly
Oh yeah
Flying in the sky
Oh yeah
Flying in the sky
Flying in the sky me oh my
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Cosmic meditation
For a constant state of mind
A sweet release soulful song
Nectar so sublime
I orbit past the apogee
Of a bright eternal star
This mortal form has been released
From its eternal scars
Yeah
Oh yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Oh yeah
Flying in the sky
Oh yeah
Flying in the sky
Flying in the sky me oh my
Yeah

Across the hill
A burning forest
Like the night
The grass is turning dark
A fawn she runs
Embers in her hair
Like weakness
The fire burns the bark
Underneath
The forest floor of ashes
There's a man
Laughing to himself
On his leash
A woman cries
For her child
Burning in hell
I am a son of Persephone I know
Yes I am a son of Persephone I know
Yes I am a son of Persephone I know
And like the trees at night
I too forever glow
So try to stay awake
When the sun is going down
Cause the world's gonna kill you in your sleep
The laughing man
Sends out his hounds
The tears of my mother lying at his feet
The dogs are howling
In the moonlight
Tired and damned
Looking for someone to eat
Their coats are burning
Like the fire in my heart
Their eyes are cursed
Like the blood inside of me
I am a son of Persephone I know
Yes I am a son of Persephone I know
Yes I am a son of Persephone I know
And like the dogs at night
I too forever glow
Running through the forest
Burning every tree
Fire comes to everything I see
A candle in the darkness
An angel without wings
Father, what have you done to mother and me
I am a son of Persephone I know
Yes I am a son of Persephone I know
Yes I am a son of Persephone I know
And like my father
I too forever and ever
Oh yeah
Glow

Goddess Of War
06:06
|

Real people get up
Freedom fighters get up
Comrades show up
And then we blow up
I saw a sign in the lightning
It's time we take on the titans
They're strong with lies so enticing
My family raised me for fighting
Raised me for fighting
They're looking for new lands to conquer
Raging war on mother nature
Leaving death at every doorstep
No home and nowhere for shelter
No place for shelter
When the signal's in the sky
Tell the knights it's time to ride
As we fight along the shore
Call upon the Goddess of War
Black banners fly in the distance
Festering a horde so conflicted
But surely they must have a weakness
They're coming to crush our resistance
Crush our resistance yeah
As we are we cannot defeat them
Our people are far too depleted
But surely they must have a weakness
Carved in the stones of their priestess
Stones of their priestess yeah
When the signal's in the sky
Tell the knights it's time to ride
As we fight along the shore
Call upon the Goddess of War
Come on lads put your backs into it now
On and on
On and on
On and on yeah yeah
On and on
On and on
On and on yeah yeah
On and on
On and on
On and on yeah yeah
On and on
On and on
Ahh
Our lines were falling apart
Their cannonades blew us to smithereens
The night was almost lost
But then one boy stood forward from the midst
And with gusto in his voice he said this
I saw a sign in the lightning
It's time we take on the titans
They're strong with lies so enticing
My Family raised me for fighting
Raised me for fighting yeah yeah yeah yeah
They're looking for new lands to conquer
Raging war on mother nature
Leaving death at every doorstep
No home and nowhere for shelter
No place for shelter yeah
When the signal's in the sky
Tell the knights it's time to ride baby
As we fight along the shore
Call upon the Goddess of War
Get up Get up Get up and then we put 'em down
You're gonna give my second wife Patricia a heart attack
If you keep playing that rock and roll music
