You said that you would be the one
I knew that we could have some fun
You knew that this would be the day
I knew that I could have my way
We took it well beyond the crowd
I didn’t think that you could scream so loud
I gave you something that was sweet like pain
Now I know that we were just the same
Run too far, I aim to hit that star
I wanna be wherever you … you are
I was blind but then I got the sight
I lit it up and deep in darkest night
It’s claimed that it was bad for me
The baddest things are always hot and sweet
You got a hold of darkest deeds
You let it flow and now my poor heart bleeds
A devil’s power risen from my seed
Now I know nothing is what it seems
Run too far, I aim to hit that star
I wanna be wherever you … you are
You are, you are … You are what I wanted
You are, you are … You are what I needed
I set up all the stones in circles to offer up some protection
A haphazard way to stay safe
There isn’t any guarantee of getting out of this alive – no!
There isn’t any guarantee of getting out of this alive – no!
We keep on making false promises is if it’s what we want to hear
You know it’s true
You know when you listen to an album and doesn't do it for you the first time? And then you listen again at a later time and it blows you away? How amazing is that? I 'm stuck on this album for a few days now, thinking "what the hell was I thinking?". Superb songwriting, killer vocal melodies. Jerry Cantrell is listening somewhere on his own and is smiling. Seriously, do not sleep on this album. Give it a spin today! Ioannis Valiakos
