Take It Down 04:04
Black Magnolia – Take It Down Out of your cruel mountain, out of your role Out of your blue fountains, out of control Out of your youth makes it all I’ve become Out of you, out of you, I will run So don’t take it down Don’t take it down I just need more ground So don’t take it down And don’t take it down And don’t take it down I just need more ground So don’t take it down Well I got to California just a little too late And I saw the queen of diamonds just before she was played And I swear… I swear I had my turn And I played along the city when I knew it would change But I bet against the weather just before it would rain And I cared, I cared for all I yearn Oh and I swear…I swear I never learn So don’t take it down And don’t take it down I just need more ground So don’t take it down I called upon the waters that I thought I could tame And I drowned upon the river when I knew I could wade And I dared, I dared from up above I danced along the devil when I saw his parade And I threw away the only thing that I ever made And I swear, I swear I need this love Ohh and I swear…I swear I never… So don’t take it down And don’t take it down I just need more ground So don’t take it down So don’t take it down And don’t take it down

Black Magnolia – Throw It Away Light the candle of innocence Feel the burden of shame Lie down in the muddy waters and drown your arrogant ways Sell all that you wanna be For just a minute of fame Face down in a moment of glory your ego’s pulling the reigns And you wouldn’t change… Can you entertain me? Can you entertain me? And lash before my eyes Can you entertain me? Control and re-frain me? And crash before my eyes I’d throw it away I’d throw it away Over on to another day Over on to the stage Feels good in a rushing thunder Your fever lying in wait Have all that you want now And Have all that you say Deep down in your wicked glory you should have never wanted to stay Now you’ll have to pay Can you entertain me? Can you entertain me? And lash before my eyes Can you entertain me? Control and re-frain me? And crash before my eyes I’d throw it away I’d throw it away Can you entertain me? Can you entertain me? And lash before my eyes Can you entertain me? Control and re-frain me? And crash before my eyes I’d throw it away I’d throw it away

Show me who you are Ooohhh the life to see that I have known I said ooohhhh the life that feels alone So show me who you are Show me who you are A beautiful shade of grey, a tortured mind that can’t find its way A sun that rises on a wicked day, a word that falls between what I can say So show me who you are Show me who you are Show me who you are Show me who you are All so crazy and my minds grown hazy but I can’t forget the way you made me pay All so crazy and my minds grown lazy but I can’t forget the way you made me stay You’re the storm that lights the way Yeaaaa A window open in the winter’s way, a blessed child who can’t stay away Oohh the truth doesn’t have to be this way, the truth sometimes is all that I can fake Yeaaaa So show me who you are Show me who you are Show me who you are Show me who you are Show me who you are Show me who you are Show me who you are Show me who you are

The Fighters 04:36
Black Magnolia – The Fighters Tell me ‘bout the lives you mold The precious words you have told And scream them for me one last time, to keep me beating again Show me how you move my soul I’ll carry on, you’ll behold When times like these can make a man, and give him reason to stand Don’t say it’s right Don’t give up on fading lights…tonight Won’t say it’s fine Won’t make this mine Headstrong, and again Ohhh, you oughta know, oughta know… The fighters of revolution The fighters of resolution The fighters of constitution The fighters are all that’s right The fighters of inspiration The fighters of innovation The fighters on revelation The fighters are all we got, to go on….to go on…. Weave me through your memories The power in your melodies And teach me what it means to say, I need to feel this again I miss the color of your rhymes I miss the streaming beautiful lines They hold my ropes That hold me closer to the end Don’t say it’s right Don’t give up on fading lights…cause I Won’t say it’s fine Won’t make it mine Headstrong, and again Ohhhh you’ll never know, never know…. The fighters of revolution The fighters of resolution The fighters of constitution The fighters are all that’s right The fighters of inspiration The fighters of innovation The fighters on revelation The fighters are all we got, to go on….to go on….to go.

Black Magnolia – Apocalypse Nevermind, this is all ebbing me out of the way I never let it abide I absolved your crime Never lie, I will sell whatever’s sold on me I didn’t know it controlled me Now I beckon your time Can you feel me? This is all so near me Watch your eyes Another sign of the night So can you fear this? Can you try to heed this? Now you’re scared. For all of your wares? Cause you were not there Cause you were not there Apocalypse in the air Cause you were not there Cause you were not there Apocalypse in the air Step in line, re-design, won’t you make all of it right? A century of the delicate spines Make your mirrors unwind So can you fear this? Can you try to head this? Now you’re scared For all of your wares Cause you were not there Cause you were not there Apocalypse in the air Cause you were not there Cause you were not there Apocalypse in the air Cause you were not there Cause you were not there Apocalypse in the air Cause you were not there Cause you were not there Apocalypse in the air

Black Magnolia – You are the One Whistles blow, time moves slow, feel the lightning, feel it striking You are the one You are the one Strangers come, strangers go, fill the room with your glow You are the one You are the one Lover’s bride, father’s pride, stand beside, stand and guide You are the one You are the one Children scream, filling dreams, feel them breathing, feel them leaving But you are the one You are the one Fear the fights, sleepless nights, pray for death, clear my head You said you wanted it once You said you wanted it once I swear I tried, ¬¬¬I swear I’ll try Why are you letting it go? I’m never letting it go You are the one You are the one There’s nothing for what I adore I’ll be free I’ve got a feeling of more I can’t ignore Now be free Lovers die, love divides, feel the light, feel it rise You are the one You are the one Whistles blow, times move slow, feel the lightning, feel it striking You are the one You are the one You are the one You are the….

Black Magnolia – Nature of the Beast Ohhh I didn’t know, that you had to go, in such a matter of time And I…I didn’t see, what you had to be, to keep you satisfied And I’ll be holding you closely, ever so closely, you’re not a child And I’ll squeeze harder than you can breathe, harder than you conceive, you’re in denial So send me to the fires And send me to the buyers And we can take it higher than you, and you’ll ever be I’ve never wanted something That led me on to nothing The nature of the hunting is just the nature of beasts Move…move on with the show I’m letting it go, for my peace of mind Ohhh we’re taking it slow The future will grow with you left behind And I’ll be taken away from me, out of your misery, out of the wild Then I’ll squeeze harder than you can breathe, harder than you conceive, you’re in denial So send me to the fires And send me to the buyers And we can take it higher than you, and you’ll ever be I’ve never wanted something That led me on to nothing The nature of the hunting is just the nature of beasts And if you ask I’m doing fine After all this was all mine Nothing more than I could see Adolescent terms I’ll find, on this ugly road that winds, deep into where it sleeps So send me to the fires And send me to the buyers And we can take it higher than you, and you’ll ever be I’ve never wanted something That led me on to nothing The nature of the hunting is just the nature of beasts

Vampyre 04:18
Awake to cool comfort, the moon a call to my thirst. A sanguine lust parches me I feel it so intently. An electric sensation, searing anticipation. I’m keyed in on lifeblood, I smell it in the night, Getting high on fear, desire wells up in me. I creep to cut off escape, stalking, lying in wait. Panic in the darkness, a welcome call to feed. This primal urgent need is the cloak that surrounds me. At last I see her wild‐eyed, turning her head side to side, searching in vain for safety. I lick my fangs savoring. She’ll give of life to me. She’ll sacrifice herself to satisfy my hunger. She’ll give of life to me. Sniffing the breeze, searing with urgent need. I dream of them in my clutch. Dying to sink my teeth in. Wonder why they’re running. I crave them so deeply. An electric sensation, searing anticipation. I’m yearning for one more, I sniff it in the breeze, I’m trying to find that high desire wells up in me. This sanguine lust torchers me thirsting for the taste of Blood to sate my frenzy. Blood to sate my frenzy Blood to sate my frenzy

Stop Me Now 04:29
Black Magnolia – Stop Me Now Here we all are to pass the time as it all falls so hard, cause this has torn my world apart Drivin straight through my heart Here we all are to say our names, but it’s drowning in the fury of fear and pain for all And nothing breaks my fall Come on and stop me now And stop my mind from this news Stop my arms from abuse of my life Who’s to say that there’s nothing that can do us in? Who’s to say there’s nothing out there that can break our skin? Come on man the bleeding is ever within Hold on to the pieces of the stories we send I need the power of a savior just to help me begin Show me how, show me now, my only friend And please stop me now Stop my mind from this news Stop my arms from abuse of my life And drive, to save my heart from this noose Drive my eyes from this roof of my life And all I need as I lie here for you, is to rise here for you all alone And all I feel as I lie here for you, I can’t die here for you all alone Come on and stop me now Stop my mind from this news Stop my arms from abuse of my life And drive, to save my heart from this noose Drive my eyes from this news of my life

Tell all the fools I’ve stayed behind. It’s all been good it’s all seemed kind So you wouldn’t mind… And Tell all the world now help is gone. That’s all been said that’s all been shown And you haven’t grown… But your tries and your cries, they haven’t won. You’ll never be done And don’t stop running the fields are burning. May you never stop running, wheels are turning When life can be such a disease of your rights… It won’t stop bleeding, the scars not healing, and they’ll never stop needing, keep deceiving And I’ll never be what you can be and I’m tired And you wanted it all but you should’ve been fine Yea they don’t make enough for you Are you through? And you wanted to speak but you couldn’t unwind Yea and I don’t have the words for you Will it do? But your cries and your ties, they haven’t won. You’ll never be done. And don’t stop running the fields are burning. May you never stop running, wheels are turning When life can be such a disease of your rights… It won’t stop bleeding, the scars not healing, and they’ll never stop needing, keep deceiving And I’ll never be what you can be and I’m tired We are your fires. We’ll never fall again. We’ll never hide again. We are admirers. We never wanted to sing. We never wanted to bring. This on… Open your lions. Damn it to hell and again. And damn what they call friends. Deny the face of the giants. Cause we are loved again. We are…. We are… We are…. Cause we are…. Cause we are…. We are…. We are We are We are
