Still Falls the Rain
still falls the rain, the veils of darkness shroud the blackened trees
which, contorted by some unseen violence, shed their tired leaves
and bend their boughs toward a gray earth of severed bird wings
among the grasses, poppies bleed before a gesticulating death
and young rabbits, born dead in traps, stand motionless
as though guarding the silence that surrounds
and threatens to engulf all those that would listen
mute birds, tired of repeating yesterdays terrors
huddle together in the recesses of dark corners
heads turned from the dead, black swan
that floats upturned in a small pool in the hollow
there emerges from this pool a faint, sensual mist
that traces its way upwards to caress the feet of the headless martyr's statue
whose only achievement was to die too soon, and who couldn't wait to lose
the cataract of darkness forms fully
the long black night begins
yet still by the lake a young girl waits
unseeing, she believes herself unseen
she smiles faintly at the distant tolling bell
and the still falling rain.
Black Sabbath
what is this that stands before me ?
figure in black which points at me
turn round quick and start to run
find out i'm the chosen one
oh, no...
big black shape with eyes of fire
telling people their desire
satan's sitting there, he's smiling
watch those flames get higher and higher
oh, no, no - please, god help me
this is the end, my friend
satan's comin round the bend
people running cuz they're scared
ya people better go and beware
no, no, please, no...
The Wizard
misty morning, clouds in the sky - without warning a wizard walks by,
casting his shadow, weaving his spell - funny clothes, tinkling bell
never talking, just keeps walking, spreadin his magic
evil power disappears - demons worry when the wizard is near
he turns tears into joy - everyone's happy when the wizard walks by
never talking, just keeps walking, spreadin his magic
sun is shinin, clouds have gone by - all the people give a happy sigh
he has passed by, giving his sign - left all the people feeling so fine
never talking, just keeps walking, spreadin his magic

Wasp
(Instrumental)
Behind the Wall of Sleep
visions cupped within a flower - deadly petals with strange power
faces shine a deadly smile - look upon you at your trial
chill that numbs from head to toe - icy sun with frosty glow
words that grow read to your sorrow - words that grow read no tomorrow
feel your spirit rise with the breeze - feel your body fallin to its knees
sleeping wall of remorse - take your body to a corpse...
now from darkness there springs light - wall of sleep is cool and bright
wall of sleep is lying broken - sun shines in, you have awoken

N.I.B.
some people say my love cannot be true
please believe me, my love - and i'll show you
i will give you those things you thought unreal
the sun, the moon, the stars - all bear my seal
follow me now and you will not regret
leaving the life you led before we met
you are the first to have this love of mine
forever with me til the end of time
your love for me has just got to be real
before you know the way i'm going to feel...
now i have you with me under my power
our love grows stronger now with every hour
look into my eyes, you'll see who i am
my name is Lucifer, please take my hand
N.I.B.

Wicked World
the world today has such a wicked face
fighting going on between the human race
people go to work just to earn their bread
while people just across the sea are countin the dead
a politician's job they say is very high
for he has to choose who's got to go and die
they can put a man on the moon quite easy
while people here on earth are dying of all diseases
a woman goes to work every day after day
she just goes to work just to earn her pay
child's sitting cry "my life is harder"
he doesn't even know who is his father
Evil Woman
i see a look of evil in your eyes
you've been filling me all full of lies
sorrow will not change your shameful deed
you will bear someone else's bitter seed
evil woman don't you play your game with me
now i know just what your looking for
you want me to claim this child you bore
well you know that it was he not me
and you know the way it's got to be
evil woman don't you play your game with me
wickedness lies in your moistened lips
your body moves just like the crack of a whip
black cat sleeps on top of your stained bed
your true wish that you could see me dead
evil woman don't you play your game with me
A Bit of Finger
Sleeping Village
red sun rising in the sky
sleepin village, cockerel's cry
soft breeze blowin in the trees
peace of mind, feel at ease
Warning
now the first day that i met ya, i was looking in the sky
when the sun turned all a blur and the thunder clouds rolled by
the sea began to shiver and the wind began to moan
it must of been a sign for me to leave you well alone
i was warned about you baby - but my feelings were a little bit too strong
you never said you love me and i don't believe you can
cuz i saw you in a dream and you were with another man
you looked so cool and casual and i tried to look the same
but now i've got to love ya, tell me who am i to blame ?
i was warned about you baby - but my feelings were a little bit too strong
now the whole wide world is movin, cuz there's iron in my heart
i just can't keep from cryin, cuz you say we've got to part
sorrow grips my voice as i stand here all alone
and watch you slowly take away a love i've never known
i was warned about you baby - but my feelings were a little bit too strong
just a little bit to strong
