The Last Of Me

Woke up in the dead of night to the sound of my own screams
The tremors loosed upon my bones and on my wayward soul
A heaving dread seized on my chest,
Like some sordid demon lover
That sucked the breath from the lungs
Of this bitch’s bastard’s son
I’ve seen the old moon dying in the new moon’s arms
And I fear, I fear the time is near when comes a killing storm
When the heavens swell with rolling clouds,
Like horsemen battle-born
And hell-bent as they ride
On the back of a shrieking sky
Grim Death breathing down my neck,
My piss-poor soul soon to collect
Now I’d steal the pennies off a dead man’s eyes,
Got hell to pay for this life of crime
And though the die’s been cast,
No, you haven’t seen the last of me, last of me
Whistling ‘Dies Irae’ as shadows dance on walls
Let the ancient waters rise and come to bury us all
Slice open the horizon, et the sky bleed the dawn
My heart like a clenched fist, my heart like a clenched fist, yeah
My heart like a clenched first,
My heart just like a clenched fist, yeah
Grim Death breathing down my neck,
My piss-poor soul soon to collect
Now I’d steal the pennies off a dead man’s eyes,
Got hell to pay for this life of crime
And though the die’s been cast,
No, you haven’t seen the last of me, last of me

Heading East

My wits about me now, but not for long
Summer’s gone, summer’s gone
And in the country dark, this sullen land
It lays before me like an outstretched hand
I hitched a ride with a man from Tennessee
Heading east, heading east
Said I roam around from town to town
Still searching for the girl that got away
And in the starlit night, I scream her name
I scream her name
And in the starlit night, I scream her name,
I scream her name, I scream her name…
Had me a dozen wives, if truth be told
Bless their souls, bless their souls
For I butchered all except for one,
She fought tooth and nail and then to the woods did run
Seen me as many priests, I must confess
No regrets, no regrets
Took pleasure in the fact these men of God
Must take my secrets to their graves
And in the starlit night, I scream your name
I scream your name
And in the starlit night, I scream your name,
I scream your name, I scream your name…
The hunt is on, my mind dead-set on you
Only you, only you
And solitude rides shotgun now,
‘Cause death can keep a secret sure as hell
And solitude rides shotgun now,
‘Cause death can keep a secret sure as hell
