Run with the Devil
[Verse 1]
I've been wild and I've been calm
I've waged wars and I've stormed the seas
I've raised hell, I've been good, I've been bad
But there's a breath down my neck when I'm on my knees

[Chorus]
My heart is pure but my church is black
I'm running drunk and wild through hell and back
I might be old but I ain't done yet
I'm on the run with the Devil himself
I'm on the run with the Devil himself

[Verse 2]
My gun is loaded to set my mind free
I'm gonna give my demons one final show
And when I look in the mirror I can see
Someone's waiting for me, it's the man below

[Chorus]
My heart is pure but my church is black
I'm running drunk and wild through hell and back
I might be old but I ain't done yet
I'm on the run with the Devil himself
I'm on the run with the Devil himself
My heart is pure but my church is black
(My heart is pure but my church is black)
I'm running drunk and wild through hell and back
(Drunk and wild through hell and back)
I might be old but I ain't done yet
(I might be old but I ain't done yet)
I'm on the run with the Devil himself
I'm on the run with the Devil himself

Coming Home
[Verse 1]
When she entered my world
When she stepped into my little universe
I was swept away
And there was no more to say

[Verse 2]
She came in like a hurricane
Howling inside my mind
Uprooting everything
And there was nowhere to hide

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm coming home
Oh, I'm coming home
I'm broken and I'm bruised
And I'm wasted, I'm standing alone
Oh, I'm coming home

[Verse 3]
Keeping the pressure up every night
And every morning, white on white
Broken in our bed
We slept the sleep of the living dead

[Verse 4]
She came on with a cyclone kiss
She brought both suffering and bliss
I cried to survive
But there was nowhere to run or hide

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm coming home
Oh, I'm coming home
I'm broken and I'm bruised
And I'm wasted, I'm standing alone
Oh, I'm coming home

[Bridge]
Kiss me, kiss me one more time
For all the times you kissed me
For all that's said and done
Hold me, destroy me if you can
All else is wind and sand
And I'm coming
I'm coming
I'm coming...

[Chorus]
...Home, I'm coming home
Oh, I'm coming home
I'm broken and I'm bruised
And I'm wasted and I'm standing alone
Oh, I'm coming home

Burning Churches
[Verse 1: Mat McNerney]
That night I saw the flames flicker on the television set
The vicar's tears fell as he faced the cameramen
My mother grabbed her crucifix and drew in her breath
It's suspected arson, the newsreader said
My life was reborn into that incendiary darkness
It brought to mind the great writers of satanic verses
From that truth my eyes glowed with unholy illumination
From the matchstick spark until the final glowing embers

[Chorus: Mat McNerney & Nergal]
I'm called by the light of burning churches
I'm saved by the light of burning churches

[Verse 2: Mat McNerney]
I was always the altar boy and never a thief
Part of the choir and friends with the priest
But it all changed when those prayer books went up in flames
Childhood on fire, consumed in the blaze
Now I smoke all my opportunities right down to the filter
I don't regret a single fucking moment of my future
And I know the devil better than himself
There's no good fun in Heaven
'Cause we're down here raising hell

[Chorus: Mat McNernet & Nergal]
I'm called by the light of burning churches
I'm saved by the light of burning churches

[Verse 3: Mat McNerney]
There's plenty of things that should be left unsaid
So I'll drink some more whiskey and I'll say them again
My life is this war against their words
Slaves to salvation and prayers to their lord
I'll take up my seat next to Anton LaVey
With a Molotov cocktail and a can of gasoline
Oh, ashes up to Heaven
Beautiful destruction
I grew up by that light
I was raised by that light

[Bridge: Mat McNerney & Nergal]
Burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn
Burning churches

[Chorus: Mat McNerney & Nergal]
I'm called by the light of burning churches
I'm saved by the light of burning churches
I'm called by the light of burning churches
I'm saved by the light of burning churches

By the River
Down by the river
I'll be soothing my soul
And digging my grave in this goddamn hole
Oh, this god damn hole
Please call my mother
Send my warm regards
Kiss me, my lover
My last goodbyes

Oh, my last goodbyes
Deep into the night
'Tis my last goodbye
Stray away from light

They laid down my body
And they laid it down low
I rest here forsaken in this bloody hole
Oh, this goddamn hole
Away from the living
All those I have let down
My heart is still beating this funeral drum

Oh, this funeral drum
Far away from the sun
The countdown has begun
Beat my funeral drum, oh

Męstwo
Nie umiem Nie mogę
Serca nie zdobią mi te dwie
Drewna bele co no krzyż

To piorun mój ojciec
A matką suka wilka
Wyj ze mną kiedy grzmi
Dośpieqa nam echo lasu ten nocny tren nasz

Lewą dłoń
Układam w broń
Celuję w ziemię
Bo nie ma dia mnie miejsca w niebie

Nie padnę Nie klęknę
Przed tobą co miłość w ból
Męstwo w tępą siłę
Nie stanę Nie spocznę
Nie będę kajał się bo wiem
Wiem czym grozi takie kłamstwo
Ja wiem czym jesten i czym nie będę

Lewą dłoń
Układam w broń
Celuję w ziemię
Nie ma dia mnie miejsca w niebie

Surrender
[Chorus]
I surrender to you
I surrender to you
I surrender to you
I surrender to you
(I surrender)

[Verse 1]
I got nothing to say
No, I ain't got that right
I live in the darkness
Even that is too bright
They say love is a burden
That love brings you pain
I say love is the devil
It will drive you insane

[Chorus]
I surrender to you
I surrender to you
I surrender to you
I surrender to you (Surrender to you)

[Verse 2]
I'm begging you death, I'm ready at last
I can't face the future, I can't shake my past
I'm feeding the lion with my own soul
I disintegrate, I'm losing control
You offered me heaven but gave me hell
I'm just your puppet, I'm under your spell
I long for the silence, I long to my grave
I long for a time when I'm not your slave

[Chorus]
I surrender to you (Oh)
I surrender to you (I surrender to you)
I surrender to you
I surrender to you (I surrender to you)
I surrender to you
I surrender to you (I surrender to you)
I surrender to you
I surrender to you

[Verse 3]
Got nothing to lose in a world gone astray
I walk in the shadows, I can't find my way
I know I ain't nothing, I might as well die
No use to continue living a lie
I know who I am and what I can't be
I know we're all lost and never be free
I give up, I give in, surrender to you
I give you my soul, you know what to do
Surrender to you

Deep Down South
[Verse 1: Nicke Andersson]
She crushed my bones, cut out my heart
She let it bleed, tore it apart
There was no way to keep the promises we made
Made up my mind and stole her blade
A dagger sharp and I don't dignify
I cut her throat and hung her up to dry

[Verse 2: Johanna Sadonis]
Within my grave I [?]
Entombed in dirt and rattle snakes
This soil is cold, my coffin's tight
I hear the train roll on through the night
Gonna find my love and take him down
With haunted bliss, on the dark ground

[Verse 3: Nicke Andersson]
Behind bars ain't no place to be
Incarceration will be the death of me
I made my way down to Mexico
With my guilty face, no one will know
Free as a bird and on my own
And just my cover [?]

[Verse 4: Johanna Sadonis]
Now deep down south I make my way
I have to make the debt paid
So that I'll last long one last time
Before our flesh [?]
Hell has no view like a woman's scorn
My darling man, [?]

Man of the Cross
[Verse 1]
I rest not, I sleep not, lonely, cold of the heart
I keep on sharpening the blade all day
The night falls, that shiver crawls up your neck
The hideman's teasing, it's the hideman's season

[Chorus]
My holy sons, can you feel the rage?
Now just watch me hold that blade you crave
My holy sons, is this blood I taste?
Must be all that lust you try to cage

[Verse 2]
I fear not, I won't tremble
This blade will plunge home
Straight to the soul, straight to the bone
We shall roll the rope once the neck has snapped
We will roll the ropes
And that will be the end of that man of the cross

[Chorus]
My holy sons, can you feel the rage?
Now just watch me hold that blade you crave
My holy sons, is this blood I taste?
Must be all that lust you try to cage
Watch all the lies you fed us fail

[Bridge]
No one died for my sins
No one died for my sins
No one died for my sins
No one died for my sins just yet
No one died for my sins just yet
No one died for my sins just yet
No one died for my sins just yet
No one died for my sins just yet
Man on the cross, you bring no light (No one died)
Man of the cross, you bring no light
Man of the cross, you bring no light

[Chorus]
My holy sons, can you feel the rage?
Now just watch me hold that blade you crave
My holy sons, is this blood I taste?
Must be all that lust you try to cage
My holy sons, can you feel the rage?
Now just watch me hold that blade you crave
My holy sons, is this blood I taste?
Must be all that lust you try to cage
Watch all the lies you fed us fail

You Will Be Mine
[Chorus]
“So you'll be mine or you'll be dead”
I said those words and shot a bullet in her head
I swear I did it for the love I felt
The preacher told me I would go to hell
And locked the door of my prison cell

[Verse 1]
Well, I met her at Saint Mary's Square
On the way to the bar I used to drink
That angel's face with charming smile
I said “But will she answer with the weak?”

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Oh, that's how it started
No one knew how bad this would end
She said that I'm the only one
But as she did with another men

[Chorus]
“So you'll be mine or you'll be dead”
(You'll be mine or you'll be dead)
I said those words and shot a bullet in her head
(Right in her fucking head)
I swear I did it for the love I felt (I felt)
The preacher told me I would go to hell (Go out to hell)
And locked the door of my prison cell
(Locked the door of my prison cell)

[Verse 2]
Her voice was sweet like a serenade
Her body was a masterpiece
I place a ringer on her finger
As I was down on my knee

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But heavens brought all Hell to death
Cause this is how it goes
I found her with another man
And, goddamn, shot them both

[Chorus]
“So you'll be mine or you'll be dead”
(You'll be mine or you'll be dead)
I said those words and shot a bullet in her head
(Right in her fucking head)
I swear I did it for the love I felt (I felt)
The preacher told me I would go to hell (Go out to hell)
And locked the door of my prison cell
(Locked the door of my prison cell)

[Post-Chorus]
I said those words and shot a bullet in her head
And locked the door of my prison cell

[Outro]
“So you'll be mine or you'll be dead”
I said those words and shot a bullet in her head

How Come
[Verse 1]
We don't need those stars anymore
Every man and woman is one
Down to Earth and electrified
Odin's ravens keep their watch for the shore
But a foolish bird chose the wrong way of flight

[Verse 2]
I can see my friends dancing on a guillotine
Stomping wooden desks
In those stupid soulless shoes
So c'mon you Pip Boy, shake your tambourine
We're going home to drive away your blues

[Chorus]
Oh, Lord
How come?
We're going home
My dad and my mom
I'm not alone
Yeah!

[Verse 3]
We don't need this blood and wars anymore
We just want the new stuff with no chance of disease
I was looking for another
Fresh as the morning dew
But they've poured me wine
With lies of being the blood of Jesus

[Verse 4]
I love the silk on the white hips of my wife
She's just always tired of being loved by the Devil
Blow your trumpets, Gabriel
Call partners for this crime
'Cause night will end so soon
Sing this song to farewell our brother Moon

[Chorus]
Oh, Lord
How come?
We're going home
My wife and my son
I'm not alone

Confession
My life ain't easy
No brother, my life ain't good
There is no redemption for a coward like me
But then again, no one said that it should

My voice ain't worthy
No dear sister, it shouldn't be heard
Because all that I've told you are lies upon lies upon lies
Oh poor sister, you never learn

My life ain't simple
Sugar coated, potent or fun
Tonight I'll be paying for fuckups
Through the barrel of a shotgun
Salvation will come

So dear father, poor mother, please listen
I've fucked up, I'm sorry to say
The son that you once knew is no longer with us
But I chose my own path
And it's not cause of you

Brother
Sister
Father
Mother
Ona
Opa
It's not cause of you
