DEVILDRIVER LYRICS

1. Not All Who Wander Are Lost

Only the gods know
They're looking right through you
Straight into the eyes of a dead man
There isn't enough hours in the day
What will be seen
When your world comes crashing down
Staring in the eyes of a gone man

No more fuckin' time left on your side, on you side
All of your hopes and dreams - don't mean shit!
All that's left is, now to nowhere
I believe do anything at all costs
You must believe
Not all who wander are lost

Tied to the tree of woe, so woe to you
In front of the man with the dead eyes
With a choir of faith there's still hell to pay
Not enough hours in the day
Hell of patience to be paid
So who's left to wonder?
In the wake of destruction, get made

All of your hopes and dreams - never meant shit!
All that's left is, now to nowhere!
I believe, do anything at all costs
You must believe
Not all who wander are lost!
Something, somewhere, injects the eye
Texas! Nights! Defines the sky!

2. Clouds Over California

Come forth for the cattle call
Confront the evil river you can't control
Wicked ways and venomous eyes
Just human nature in disguise
Lost in this world, Out on the edge
With death by our sides
Today I sworn that I wouldn't Mourn ya
Cloud over California
If that's the way it's gonna be the I'll fuckin' go it alone
I'm a saint in sinners eyes
Curse the clouds over California
This is the call to obey
Let the chaos reign!
Bloodshot and weary-eyed
We took you in full of sin and pride
It'll take you and break you away
It'll tear you apart
Today I sworn I wouldn't mourn ya
Clouds over California
if that's the way it's gonna be the I'll fuckin' go it alone
I'm a saint in sinners eyes
Curse the clouds over California
This is the call to obey
Let the chaos reign!

3. Bound By The Moon

Brothers and Sisters
The lords taking his own sweet time
without rhyme or reason
The failure is not thine
Like wolves to a virgin
The intention is made clear
At war with ourselves
At war with the odds
At odds with the fear
Hard time will bring you way, way down
And all of this running
It's gonna be the death of me

When they ask you about this
Tell them i was...
Running in the company of wolves
It's the company we keep
Brotherhood
Bound by the moon!

Went to the well
But the goddamn thing was dry today
I spent all of my life
Running from suicide
Is it the fucking fool
That keeps on chasing the dream?
A dream that cannot fail
So proudly we hail!

When they ask you about this
Tell them i was...
Running in the company of wolves
It's the company we keep
Brotherhood
Bound by the moon!
And we shall roam
And the wolf fucking fucked her
lay as she lay bleeding on the moors...
Bleeding on the moors
Running in the company of wolves
It's the company we keep
Brotherhood
Bound by the moon!

Brotherhood of wolves

4. Horn Of Betrayal

What the fuck do you want from me?
It's so damn plain to see that you're not grateful
Silence takes courage
No scars, no truth but the wounds tell the story
Of what will be done for honor and glory
Silence is deafening
Does the end justify the means?
In all honesty, how do you sleep?
Silence takes courage
The horn of betrayal
Sounds loudly for the fallen
While mine eyes are world away
Watch cowards as they bend the knee
Scratch a liar
Find a thief
inside is where the demon dwells
So I bite my tongue and when it comes to you
Silence takes courage
Your heart needs amputation
Crying the get-lost blues
Fuck you!
Silence is deafening
The horn of betrayal
Sounds loudly for the fallen
While mine eyes are world away
Watch cowards as they bend the knee
Scratch a liar
Find a thief
Through the lies and the blasphemy
You are fucking dead to me
You are dead to me
This de los muerte, this day of the dead It turns for me celebration instead
Skull and Bones, walking away from the throne
To seek another kingdom
Your selfless heart
Your selfless
Waves of sorrow washed over me
Your selfless
Like a sea of new memories

5. These Fighting Words

Pleading your case while taking the eternal high ground
Havoc on the airwaves I'm listening
Don't see any daylight glistening
Long for the home I left yesterday
Those memories slowly decay, Two highways
The fork in the road, which one to take?
Through the middle they road

These fighting words deserve exile
Banished! Unbelievable, unbelievable, invincible...right!

Fucking feast for the eyes
Believe now- beast killer arise
In my opinion this dominion is mine!
Banished, days gone awry

[Chorus]

6. Head On To Heartache (Let Them Rot)

Secure and hold fast, before you lose control!

Its hell and high water
Believe in gods, hooves, horns and thunder
Days of wrath don't go seeking shelter
Poison creeps, serpents slither, then slumber
Bastards, paradise, true the bargain was made
Full thrust enticed to an early grave
Deals were struck late into a cold winters eve
The table was set, laid out for the feast..

Secure and hold fast, before you lose control
Head on to Heartache, Beware of the promises made
Head on to Heartache, steadfast to an early grave (let the rot!)

Deals with the Devil, theres no second best
It's in my nature to say fuck the rest
Ever thought the world was crashing down?
Man the people were talking all around

[Pre-chorus and chorus]

7. Burning Sermon

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news
You carry the burden as an excuse
To keep the pressure on, so you don't fall off
Seem to love the usual vices, gonna get your fill
So take your pills, I'll see you in the morning!
No one ever comes full circle, and ever will
welcome to the pity party,
The sign says kill!

Oh the webs you've woven, the lies you've chosen
The love in ruins, this fucking betrayal will bring the truth out, out on the table for all to see
This burning heart is a burning sermon, with whiskey it burns, taken ridden ravaged!

Bedlam, mansions of misery built on pain
Your houses of deceit, wake up, you fucking coward of a man
The line between us has been drawn in the sand
I'm calling you out, out on all your bullshit to date
So hang a light out for me!

[Chorus]

This is a call to the throne!

8. Monsters Of The Deep

Is there a promised land or am I on the journey going to nowhere?
Are the streets paved with gold or am I slipping on the mold that slowly grows there?

Every man has his conscience, sanity
Left along the way, carried in this vessel
Setting forth together now, out towards the monsters of the deep

Set your sights on the rocky shores, you might just run aground on the reef
The journey and the destination, mention fear, you're falling on deaf ears

[Chorus]

9. Tirades Of Truth

Reaping the wind through this mortal shell
In the wake of destruction this will not fail
Walking through shadows defined by my suffering
Feeding the spirit through divine intervention

Out of the fire, so much for compassion
I've thrown it to desire, in time you'll hear
Tirades of truth
Glazed and angry eyes
Spoken to by the breath of Gods
In the valley of deaths decision
The judgement...listen
The last kind words ever said will be
You will live below angels and above beasts

It's seldom clear the roads to temptation
Are filled with such peril but the human spirit can
Soar, it's more than we can ever be in one lifetime
We need more to become Gods ourselves

[Chorus]

10. When Summoned

Blood thirsty, born on the wind
Hellbent, outside looking in
Voices that carry on nightly
Don't ask, just go in now blindly
I'm bloodshot, thrown away goods
Venomous, so fucking ruthless
A well of anger to be avoided

Extended forgiveness and then got bit
They call it the breaking point
When it comes to faith, this time you've quit
You call it the breaking point
Stand up against the gates and be counted, when summoned

Nothings ever set in stone
Wade through, harvest seeds you've sown
It's alright, right as rain, and as far as I'm concerned, Fuck the fame!

[Chorus]

Climbing...scratching...uphill,
So breathless, lifeless, able still
Long live this short life trouble

11. The Axe Shall Fall

This abomination won't see the end of days
Sit throne of lies, torn
By the voice up high
Death was only a dream
Not devastating disaster
The rights of passage
The past we can't alter, fuck you, you
And the horse that you rode in on, just sit there
And be silent as the grave
You've come out this time, smelling just like roses
I sit there, watch, while I drink my wine

The weight of your sins and the evil beneath us
Will surely drag you down,
The axe shall fall
On the one-winged angel, breaking the spell
would you break this fall?
For he, who sins against his kind
The axe shall fall

With a hollow heart and hollow eyes, a cry from the cross
Serpents in disguise, hearts of distrust is what we despise
I sit there watch and drink my wine

[Chorus]
