Out of the dark Into the light Leaving my mark Free from the traitors gate The river shows no mercy The tower looms into my view I sense my execution's closing With darkness all around me The axe is ground to end my days

And everybody's peeking No one makes a sound The shadows are deceiving Paranoid and aroused As the angels put me into the ground Help me, I am breaking And my heart is barely beating And the demons they are creeping around Take me, I am sinking

Sexual (hallucination) This is what I crave It's my obsession, possession began (Physical, psychical, illumination) Intoxication, fascination (There's no denying) There's no coming down (Higher ground) (Out of body)

And I will wait, I will wait for you Wait for now And I'll kneel down Know my ground 'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you Well I came home Like a stone And I fell heavy into your arms These days of dust

We stayed up all night long Made our drinks too strong Feeling ten feet tall Ropes swinging into the water In the middle of the night Like oh oh oh oh oh Breaking our boots in Stomping on the ground we grew up on Yeah, we were raised on it

Rambling out of the wild west Leaving the towns I love best Thought I'd seen some ups and down 'Till I come into New York town People going down to the ground Building going up to the sky Wintertime in New York town The wind blowing snow around Walk

We stayed up all night long Made our drinks too strong Feeling ten feet tall Ropes swinging into the water In the middle of the night Like oh oh oh oh oh Breaking our boots in Stompin' on the ground we grew up on Yeah, we were raised on it (Raised on it)

Late nights in the city, causin' hell Burn this bitch into the ground, oh well If all we got tonight, let's do this right Let's do this right Let's go to (paradise) When you right here, I come alive One more hit and we can fly This shit feel like

Crack of the lightning splitting the ground Thunder is sounding, artillery pounding Wrath of the Nazi's cast on Bastogne Facing their forces alone Alone, alone Sent from the skies jumped into the unknown The march to Berlin has begun Spearhead the charge

We stayed up all night long Made our drinks too strong Feeling ten feet tall Ropes swinging into the water In the middle of the night Like oh oh oh oh oh Breaking our boots in Stompin' on the ground we grew up on Yeah, we were raised on it (Raised on it)
