==========         SON OF SAM: SONGS FROM THE EARTH (2001)         ==========
=============================================================================

OF POWER 
-------- 
Dracula clip: 
"Listen to them... 
Children of the night... 
What music they make..." 

(power calling) 
And the frail shall turn to dust as the 
(Power) Rising 
within the few who find the will 

It grows, I know, it shows 

(woah) Within the heart there's a fury and 
(It grows) Within the eyes a deathlike calm 
And eye to eye we recognize our own 
(woah) With death of day within the few 
this inversion shall bring anew 
That of nights that since have gone unknown 

(Beyond this coil) I am reaching 
(Beyond your reach) I send myself 

(woah) Beneath the earth, beyond the sky 
(It grows) Extend our will silent and still 
As one by one we deify our own 
(woah) Now heed the urge to slip inside 
And let them scream of patricide 
Destiny we will invent alone 

CHORUS REPEAT 2x 

INTRO REPEAT 

CHORUS REPEAT 2x 

(Beyond this coil) 
Beyond this coil, I am reaching 
(beyond your reach) I send myself 



STRAY 
----- 
So fall the tears of futility 
Down the guise of theonomy 
Don't cast your prayers on me 
Disinfect them and save them for yourself 

It's time, it's time 
It's time, for the last day 

(woah) This is the final night 
(woah) Before the black day 
(woah) And as you stray you move closer to our world 
This is the final night 
(woah) before the black day 
(woah) As the dim stretches further from us 

Chide a morbid propensity 
As I connect so naturally 
The warmest sound I watch them flee 
Into a hell they've created for themselves 

CHORUS REPEAT 

As you stray you move closer to us 2x 

BRIDGE REPEAT 

CHORUS REPEAT 

woah 4x 



EVERNIGHT 
--------- 
I have been, I have been 

Everburning in imperfect light 
Fleeing to evernight 
Loss of breath but gaining perfect sight 
Fleeing to evernight 

I've been speaking in silence 
I've been tasting the screams 
I've been beautiful violence 
In a beautiful scene 
I've been offering Violets 
In the middle of dreams 
Alleviating the final fear 
I've been called to redeem 

CHORUS REPEAT 

I've been watching you turning 
I've been hearing you call 
You've grown tired of burning 
Tired of feeling at all 
Been admiring the lashes 
In your beautiful skin 
I've been hearing your begging 
for cleansing, for cleansing 

ohhh 

I've been speaking in silence 
I've been tasting the screams 
I've been beautiful violence 
In a beautiful scene 

I've been called to redeem 4x 

CHORUS REPEAT 

The evernight 



IN THE HILLS 
------------ 
Come with me sweet innocence 
I wanna show you sights you've never seen 
Keep your eyes wide on this short ride 
We'll really see what you can be 

So we slip away (cut, cut, cut) 
No one can get to us up here 
So I slip away (cut, cut, cut) 
No one can get to you up here 

From this low up to a height 
where all we left behind shines oh so clear 
I'll let you see another side 
Exchange a dream and share some fear 

CHORUS REPEAT 

Let me open a whole new world 
Oh, this sensation 
This liberation I offer to you 
To you (cut, cut, cut) 

VERSE 1 REPEAT 



SONGS FROM THE EARTH 
-------------------- 
As the thorns grow with care 
start to twist they make new colored eyes 
As the flesh starts to split like the wrists that is slit 
As I break, and they spit, and I break, as they spit 

(woah) This temptation 
(woah) That invites me to life 
(woah) What's salvation 
(woah) Is it in this 
(woah) Invitation 
(woah) To praise the fallen 

As a world grown with care starts to sing 
It's swarmed by cacophony 
One and all punished now for just one wouldn't bow 
Without grace all are left in disgrace chasing death 

REPEAT BRIDGE 

(I don't believe) The beliefs of the righteous 
(I don't believe) Are so righteous at all 
(I do believe) That the mark placed upon us 
(is misconcieved) Who shall fall, who shall fall 

As the guilt raining down reaches flooded ground 
The insects must concede 
To this wrong they belong, in this left they are strong 
As the right start to bleed, on the right they shall feed 

REPEAT BRIDGE 

REPEAT CHORUS 

woah, woah 



SATIATE 
------- 
In the circle of dying time 
There's a thinning of salt 
What was kept from slipping in 
Will be soaring out 
A color that can't be described 
A power that can't, can't be denied 

This is the hunger and I'll feed 
(I want it, I want it) 
What died long ago I glady sold cause I 
I (I want it, I want it, I want it all) 

Radiating with blinding light 
A newborn spreads it's wings 
And beneath the starving crawl 
To taste of better things 
A color that can't be described 
A power that can't, can't be denied 

CHORUS REPEAT 

Ohhhh 

CHORUS REPEAT 

This is the hunger and I'll feed 
(I want it, I want it) 
What died long ago I glady sold cause I 
I (I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it all) 



OF MAN 
------ 
What is this that steals the breath 
What is this that horrifies 
I've got an urge to kill 
I've got a will to die 

And I'm creation 
I'm destruction, ohhh 

Where do they come from 
Where do they hide 
We are the Sons of man 
Bastardized 

What is this that's tucked away 
What has turned this twisted mind 
I am your darkest secrets 
I am your living lies 

BRIDGE REPEAT 

CHORUS REPEAT 

Ohh 

CHORUS REPEAT 

woah, woah 

(woah) What is this terrror 
What does it feed upon 
(woah) Why have you left us 
The Daughters and the Sons 

(I'm life's creation) 
(I'm light's destruction) 
(I'm life's creation) 
(I'm light's destruction) 
I'm creation 
(I'm life's creation) 
(I'm light's destruction) 
I'm destruction 
(I'm life's creation) 
(I'm life, life destroyed) 



MICHAEL 
------- 
I've been waiting patiently for this day 
To arrive and I have spoken not a single word 
Now hand to hand, my voice shall be heard 

No Michael 
Not this time 
I've been waiting for 
Oh so long 

Oh so long 

I've accepted silently this name I've been given and 
I have heard it pass the lips of everyone 
Now if you will inquire, ask of your father 
And he may tell you of his brightest Son 

CHORUS REPEAT 

No Michael 
Not this time 
I've been growing 
Oh so strong 

Now in true glory 
I'll rise again, ahh 

I've been waiting patiently for this day 
And this time I shall not be alone 
Not this time, not this time 
not this time, not this time 



PUREVIL 
------- 
In an ivory room, against an ivory wall 
Is crouched a shadow and I clash 
In an ivory room, within the ivory walls 
There is a crimson stain in the cracks 

If this is cleanliness 
If this is clean 
If this true righteousness 
Is not obscene 

Then I am pure 

Across a white floor, upon the porcelain glow 
There lies an animal, and it cries 
Beneath the white floor, beneath the porcelain glow 
Therein a secret lies, and it's black 

CHORUS REPEAT 2x 

Then I am pure 4x 

CHORUS REPEAT 2x 

Then I am pure 
(If this is cleanliness, if this is clean) 
Then I am pure 
(If this is clean) 
Then I am pure 
(If this is cleanliness) 
Then I am pure 
(If this is clean) 

Then I am pure... 



INVOCATION 
---------- 
Somewhere in the darkest corner 
Of your darkest dream 
There is a place 
Where all that is lost can be found 

And there in that darkest corner 
Crouched in the cold 
You will find me 
And you will find yourself

=============================================================================

THE BLEEDING 
------------ 
We are the darkness born of man 
A living projection of evil 
The blackest thoughts live in my head 
So soon you will come to believe 

In time you will see 
Your blood awakens me 

The die is cast, your course is run 
And now this altar will bind you 
The cloven hoof, the most unclean 
So surely tonight you will see 

In time you may find 
Your soul belongs to me 

(We have come to let your blood) 
And I've got a taste for violence 
(The more you bleed) the more I crave 

The twisted tongue will taste of flesh 
As the life falls from your eyes 
Sacrifice in the name of sin 
You should have chosen a side 

Tonight, baptized 
washed clean by your blood 

CHORUS REPEAT 

(The son of man can hear your screams) 
And I've come to taste your silence 
(The more you bleed) the more I crave 

CHORUS REPEAT 

CHORUS 2 REPEAT 

CHORUS REPEAT 

  

SUFFER 
------ 
The first time I saw you 
I fell victim and controlled 
Misdirected, jaded and relieved 
with sick conviction 
Insurrection comes and goes 
We are all your vitims just the same 

I watch you suffer (woah) 
And I watch you bleed (woah) 
I watch you suffer (woah) 
A lot like me 

A bad connection 
Message remains unknown 
Nobody's listening anyway 
My insurrection 
Overpowered your control 
I'm not your victim anymore 

So I watch you suffer (woah) 
And I watch you bleed (woah) 
I watch you suffer (woah) 
A lot like me (woah) 
Bring on your hellfire (woah) 
Bring on your storm (woah) 
Caressed by cold, dead hands (woah) 
And running back for more 

No one said goodbye 
So long, cold and gone 
And I seem to find 
You don't know, hold you down 

When I watch you suffer (woah) 
And I watch you bleed (woah) 
I watch you suffer (woah) 
A lot like me (woah) 
Bring on your hellfire (woah) 
Bring on your storm (woah) 
Caressed by cold, dead hands (woah) 
And running back for more 

I watch you suffer (woah) 3x 
I watch you suffer 



DARK LIFE 
--------- 
Little boy, big city 
with the pride of a thousand men 
On a fast track, sleepless ride 
To the promised land 
Getting lost, sitting pretty 
And just a stones throw away from hell 
Deaf, dumb, blind and useless 
Seem to suit you well 

(woah) 
It's a dark life 
That no one knows 

I've got an eye for madness 
I've got a lust for the trouble as well 
I hid a nightmare in your eyes 
And watched as pieces fell 
Little boy, big city 
With the pride of a thousand men 
Lost in a lie 
And a stones throw away from hell 

CHORUS REPEAT 

(woah) 
It's a dark life 
You can't let go 

CHORUS REPEAT 

CHORUS 2 REPEAT 



INTO THE NIGHT 
-------------- 
(woah) Here I go, just one more time 
With another victim 
(woah) Coming down like the pouring rain 
Reeking havoc as I fall 
(woah) I take my time leaving you with nothing 
But a broken feeling 
(woah) Suspense of disbelief 
Keeps you coming back for more 

(woah) Take one good look 
And tell me what you see 

Bad intentions with no direction 
I got no reason to lie 
Disconnected with no discretion 
Choking down your time 
I am a knife and the world in bleeding 
A dereliction of mind 
I won't be right till the tears are falling 
Fallen far behind 

Into the night 

(woah) I can't deny I'm a predator 
Sucker for suffocation 
(woah) Disempowered by my candor 
Leaves your back against the wall 
(woah) With every breath, I breathe destruction 
My words, my poison 
(woah) Ravenousness cravings 
Can I take it all once more 

BRIDGE REPEAT 

CHORUS REPEAT 

Pleased to rape you of your life 
(ooh woah ooh woah ooh) 
Litte victim, one last time 

CHORUS REPEAT 

Into the night 



TWISTED SOUL 
------------ 
If you're alone tonight 
Locked up tightly in your room 
You're feeling safe 
But there's something you should know 
I am here watching you 
I see every move you make 
Not as alone as you may think 
'Cause I'm here waiting for you 

I got a twisted soul (woah) 
I got an itching in my brain 
I got a twisted soul (woah) 

You get along just fine 
Suffer softly in your room 
I can't resist the chance 
To bring the pain on you 
So here I am 
Waiting right outside your door 
You pursued the end, my dear 
And now I'll bring it to you 

CHORUS REPEAT 2x 

Little bit of mystery 
As you fall to the floor 
And the devil that you fear in me 
Is inside you 

CHORUS REPEAT 2x 

woah 8x 



DEATH BABY 
---------- 
You're not the one 
She's gonna show you pain 
You're gonna feel one cold, cold night 
With that gun shoved in your brain 

She's chopping heads and stealing souls 
All through the night 

Hey death baby 
Come on and give it to me 
Come on little death baby 
You gonna set me free 

woah (woah) 

Go on and take your bow 
'Cause you ain't got no time to sing 
I got a little bitty baby from hell 
Taking out my vengeance for me 

BRIDGE REPEAT 

CHORUS REPEAT 

Hey death baby (hey death baby) 

Thought you were a man looking for a fight 
Now a pretty little lady gonna take your life 
You got the devil's little sister knocking down your door 
Nothing lasts forever, woe is you 

BRIDGE REPEAT 

CHORUS REPEAT 

Hey death baby (hey death baby) 

BRIDGE 2 REPEAT 



THEY HAVE RISEN 
--------------- 
Corpses rise from mortuaries 
Eating all they can consume 
Hell rage runs rampant 
With hungered doom 

The horror you'll hear screaming 
(tonight, tonight) 
When they start surrounding 
(tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight) 

Panic fills their rotting brains 
Born of madness, born of pain 
On flesh they feed 
And soon it will be me 

CHORUS REPEAT 

Ripping veins and tearing through 
Gorge on every part of you 
It's flesh they seek 
Killing you at will 

CHORUS REPEAT 

Ferocious, they have risen 
(tonight, tonight) 
When the blood starts flowing 
(tonight, tonight, tonight 
 tonight, tonight, tonight) 
Blood will flow tonight 



SONS OF NEW 
----------- 
A madman fuels the sleeping fury 
In darkness with the light on 
Lamenting for change 
Eyes closed, dreaming of redemption 
Drowning in rejection 
Blessed is he 

(That's right) We are the answer 
(That's right) We are the truth 
(That's right) Forgo the process 
(That's right) It's killing you 

In silence, he justifies a purpose 
With righteous litigation 
Indignance and pain 
Held captive and sinking to the surface 
Prophetic to the worthless 
He tinkers away (way, way) 

BRIDGE REPEAT 

The sons of new 
Forsaken, we are on our own 
The sons of new 
In time, all time 
The sons of new 
Forsaken, we are on our own 
The sons of new 
In time, we all die (we all die) 

I take more than I give 
As I break all that you are 
The signpost lacks a clear direction 
Our rot is fermentation 
So lucky we are, we are 

BRIDGE REPEAT 

CHORUS REPEAT 

The sons of new 
Forsaken, we are on our own 
The sons of new 
In time, all time 
The sons of new 
Forsaken, we are on our own 
The sons of new 
In time, all time 

CHORUS REPEAT 



DARKNESS CALLS (PUREVIL PT. II) 
-------------- 
A self-righteous glow 
Halos the pale shape of your lie 
Unholy arrogance in an ivory disguise 
Is this your place of worship 
Alabaster over crimson 

You follow in evil stride 

You are not whole 2x 

The innocence you've killed 
In the name of a spotless paradise 
You are the wrath of judgment 
You are the devil's plaything 

You follow in evil stride 

(The farther you fall) 
so pious you've become 
(The darkness it calls) 

You are not whole 3x 

A self-righteous glow 
The first stone is cast by you 
It seems you don't know your god as well as I do 

You follow in evil stride 

(The farther you fall) 
so pious you've become 
(The darkness it calls) 2x 
you hear the darkness call 
(The farther you fall) 

Unholy arrogance in an ivory disguise 
Is this your place of worship 
Alabaster over crimson 

You follow in evil stride 

CHORUS REPEAT 2x 

You are not whole...
