You used to be on fire now you chill me to the bone
We used to fly like angels now we're sinking like a stone
You say you're trying to help me but that ain't the way it feels
I think you're trying to kill me with those stiletto heels
Paint the town black babe and let that pendulum swing
I been stabbed in the back babe
And if you don't love me, I'll never feel a thing
And oh, one thing I know
There's only one place left for me to go
Going back to the kingdom of desire
Going down to the valley of the gun
I'm gonna stand too close to the fire
I'm gonna fly too close to the sun
They say the king of love sleeps on a velvet bed
My sheets feel like sandpaper
And my pillow feels like lead
But as sure as Atlantis sank into the sea
I'm sinking like a stone babe that's how it's got to be
Paint the town black babe and let that pendulum swing
I been stabbed in the back babe
And if you don't love me I'll never feel a thing
And oh, if I don't have you
There's only one thing left for me to do
Going back to the kingdom of desire
Going down to the valley of the gun
I'm gonna stand too close to the fire
I'm gonna fly too close to the sun
[Instrumental break]
When you dig up God's little acre you lose all peace of mind
You stare into the distance looking for a sign
But that sign it never comes babe
Your wishes won't come true
You keep praying for the rain while the sun beats down on you
And oh, one thing I know
There's only one place left for me to go
Going back to the kingdom of desire
Going down to the valley of the gun
I'm gonna stand too close to the fire
I'm gonna fly too close to the sun
[repeats 2x]
I'm gonna fly too close to the sun, yeah
I'm gonna fly too close to the sun

Ghost Of A Chance
Like a million little doorways
All the choices we made
All the stages we passed through
All the roles we played
For so many different directions
Our separate paths might have turned
With every door that we opened
Every bridge that we burned
Somehow we find each other
Through all that masquerade
Somehow we found each other
Somehow we have stayed
In a state of grace
I don't believe in destiny
Or the guiding hand of fate
I don't believe in forever
Or love as a mystical state
I don't believe in the stars or the planets
Or angels watching from above
But I believe there's a ghost of a chance we can find someone to love
And make it last...
Like a million little crossroads
Through the back streets of youth
Each time we turn a new corner
A tiny moment of truth
For so many different connections
Our separate paths might have made
With every door that we opened
Every game we played
Somehow we find each other
Through all that masquerade
Somehow we found each other
Somehow we have stayed
In a state of grace
I don't believe in destiny
Or the guiding hand of fate
I don't believe in forever
Or love as a mystical state
I don't believe in the stars or the planets
Or angels watching from above
But I believe there's a ghost of a chance we can find someone to love
And make it last...

Beautifully Broken by Gov't Mule
Mysterious - blown in with the night
All this beauty captured in a frame
Visibly shaken but never stirred - drives them insane
I see the way she plays her men - and I know I've got to know her name
She's so beautifully broken - shaped by the wind
Dangerously twisted - Here I go again
I see the way she casts her spell - It's like drowning in moonlight
Discards them when she's done - they're lost in her twilight
I watch her move from star to star and I wonder why,
why it feels so right
She's so beautifully broken - you can barely see the flaw
Especially from a distance - which is always how I fall
Why do I fall for the dangerous ones - the ones that don't know how to let go
And why do I lie to myself and pretend that I can break her
When she's already been so beautifully broken
Why do I fall for the dangerous ones - the ones that
Never learned how to let go
And why do I lie to myself and pretend that I can break her
When she's already been so beautifully broken
She's so beautifully broken - shaped by the wind
Dangerously twisted - Here I go again
Here I go again

Flesh And Blood by Shooting Star

Two Hangmen by Mason Proffit
As I rode into Tombstone on my horse, his name was Mack
I saw what I'll relate to you, going on behind my back
It seems the folks were up-in-arms, a man now had to die
For believing things that didn't fit, the laws they'd set aside
The mans name was "I'm a Freak". the best that I could see
He was the executioner, a hangman just like me
I guess he'd seen loopholes from working with his rope
He'd hung the wrong man many times, so now he turned to hope
He talked to all the people from his scaffold in the square
He told them of the things he found, but they didn't seem to care
He said the laws were obsolete, a change they should demand
But the people only walked away, he couldn't understand
The marshals name was "Uncle Sam", he said he'd right this wrong
He'd make the hangman shut his mouth, if it took him all year long
He finally arrested Freak, and then he sent for me
To hang a fellow hangman, from a fellow hangmans tree
It didn't take them long to try him in their court of law
He was guilty then of "Thinking", a crime much worse than all
They sentenced him to die, so his seed of thought can't spread
And infect the little children, that's what the law had said
So the hangin' day came 'round, and he walked up to the noose
I pulled the lever, but before he fell I cut him lose
They called it a conspiracy, and that I had to die
So to close our mouths and kill our minds, they hung us side-by-side
And now we're two hangmen, hangin' from a tree
That don't bother me, at all
Two hangmen, hangin' from a tree
