The way I see it the world is slipping We're on the edge and the dead weight's shifting Over we go Watch heaven roll The delights of the damned are disolving I can't say I'm surprised All it takes is dead eyes To see the back of the Lord is broken It's time to build a new means to reach old ends It's time to let this sinner have his long awaited chance Cause I am gonna change the way the world turns And my steely eyes will be the centre of this new universe There'll be no creeds in my new world order You either prove it or we don't move forward Oh there you go Your eyes have rolled Father forgive me for what you're about to recieve I can't say I'm surprised that you idealised All the bullshit that your father fed you It's time to build a new means to reach old ends It's time to let this sinner have his long awaited chance Cause I am gonna change the way the world turns And my steely eyes will be the centre of this new universe There's no time like the present to erase the past We'll hoist a Godless sail up mother nature's mast And through the roughest and the toughest Tyrannical storms we will sail through Our enlightened dawn Cause I am gonna change the way the world turns And my steely eyes will be the centre of this new universe Cause I am gonna change the way the world turns And my steely eyes will be the centre of this new universe Times have changed It's time for me to change the way the world turns Times have changed It's time for me to change the way the world turns

Gambling Man 06:58
The solitary stance of the empty man On the side of an empty Vegas town Heads of dead presidents drawn in the sand As the ashes of the dollar bills fall from his hand They're the debts of a gambling man I am a gambling man One more notch on my four-post bed One more face I'll never see again Three show-tunes at 2AM As the cabaret bares witness to my one good hand Five hard-eights before the sixth foes snake-eyed Pillaging the winnings of the players who were free-riding Side-by-side With the one man throwing the two bones And hitting up the winnings Not so lucky Not so lucky for them Not so lucky Not lucky until you can say I have dreamt, I have seen I survived the end of Americana Empty lives and family ties Burn bright in the fires of Americana One chance taken is another chance lost One more debt as the one man scoffs Son I've been doing this since I was twelve And just as crime doesn't pay it sure as hell don't sell Four bones later with a tear in his eye And his forlorn face in his two bad hands The old man had lost nearly everything As I laughed and said this is my damn game Not so lucky Not so lucky for them Not so lucky Not lucky until you can say I have dreamt, I have seen I survived the end of Americana Empty lives and family ties Burn bright in the fires of Americana The happy little family start their lives A doomed father, broken kids and a lonely wife Floating on the winds of a dream long gone As the blind, deaf patriot's song goes on They're the debts of a gambling man I am a gambling man Yeah I have dreamt, I have seen I survived the end of Americana Empty lives and family ties Burn bright in the fires of Americana I am a gambling man I am a gambling man The debts aren't paid The debts are bleeding through

I can't percieve that the better man won If the better man is every man but me My nerves will devour my heart in the hour Where the victor lays slain to defeat Who can prepare for an ending they cannot believe Can't believe Did she deny you, defy or defile you So devil-may-care all along The enigma is falling, her siren song calling The devil dissolves on her tongue Rescue me I'm chasing your ivory tower I've battered the blood from a stone Is this my final hour Were the victors the damned all along Beggars can't be choosers but beggars are losers Their backbone contorts at your door Not trying to be funny but honey I'm running I've been burnt by this game before Rescue me I'm chasing your ivory tower I've battered the blood from a stone Is this my final hour Were the victors the damned all along Help the helpless help themselves A burden to the brave Suckered in with cheshire-grin The gullible young knave such a misplaced fallacy The gallant have to die I'll watch your tower burn to ash Before I risk my life Rescue me Rescue me My day breaks to the west I'm upside-down again My stylish swagger Now broken I stagger Towards your dagger again I'm chasing your ivory tower I've battered the blood from a stone Is this my final hour Were the victors the damned all along All along all alone all along All along all alone all along
