Night Blue....olde, oh
Night Blue..covers me
Night blue, and our thoughts caused the trees to bend
Wet with deathly dew, I am a skeleton
at summer's end
Night blue
Standing outside and Im freezing you
I can't feel my finger tips..and the fire has died
We are the candle's end
I am a skeleton, summer's end
We are the candle's end
and we are spiral wind
and we are skeletons
night blue, how I love you
wave goodbye
all that i knew
and we are the candle's...end

The moon is here

The moon is here
and I must rise and I most rove into the night
I ate my way into this world
like a beetle eats through a wall
The moon is here, and I must rove
and I must fly like walking sticks flight
The moon moon is here and I must rove
and I am warped and I am old
The moon is here and I have no home
I have no grave to call my own
the moon is here and i have no where to go
can i do inside your room, when it is dark and cold?
The moon is here and settles in my crown
like sparks and hellfire
The moon is here and settles in my robes
moth eaten, just like my soul
The moon is here

A nightcap

Let's have a nightcap
Cause you know the road was so long
Let's have a nightcap
Let's have a drink, bitter and strong
Let's praise the road,
so long she was
Let's have a nightcap,
And fill my glass high, don't you cheat me out of life
Let's have a nightcap,
Cause the night is so old
Let's be young men again
tell our tales, full of mold and thrice told
Merry gorgon was a strong man.. strongest man 'Ive known
He said life is a sword, and i don't want to break mine off,
and run it into the ground
If i quote my dear olde Dad, "best i've ever had"
He said "When they put you in that old ground, do you think you'll get up and rise?"
When they put me in that cold, cold ground
will i get up and dance one more time?
Let's have a nightcap,
Because the road was so long
Let's have a nightcap, boys
Pour mine, don't cheat me out of life
Pour mine tall, just like my shadows
Pour mine, oh so tall, and bitter and stout
Let's have a night cap
Cause the road was so long
Let's have a nightcap
we'll pour our glasses tall and sing the shadows
Shadows, la-la-la lie
Let's have a nightcap
Set all our differences aside tonight
Cause the olde moon she is full, of horseshit..and lies
Let's have a nightcap
OH boys, cause you know it won't be long
Let's have one more song

I wore the night

I wore the night, wraith-like in starlight
Like I'm on a olde lonesome road
dressed in frog skin
the hills they bleed, dislocated in old dreams
Auld dreams, tha'ts where you'll find me,
dressed in frog skin, on a lonesome road
I wore the night, wraith-like, like starlight
Like a covered wagon, I feel a chill
Like the waster's mask, at dawn, A furry vampire I feel
Like the winter..like the hare....Like the frog skin that I wear
I was never there (X2)
oh, lord, I was never here
Olde cabin side...the firelight
pulls me nearrrrrr. to the sound of your beating heart..
let it thump, thump, thump

Silver hen

Gonna take me a silver hen
Gonna put her in a silver cage
Gonna a silver hen
Gonna bind the moon
Gonna take me an olde mandrake root
Gonna bind the moon
Gonna stand in a brand new moon
Gonna have a brand new mind
Gonna take me my silver
Gonna tie olde Ireland and Scotland into a devil's knot
Gonna tie me a bridge to England
Gonna make all those ships burn and sink
Gonna take me, my silver hen
Gonna talk to her so sweetly
Gonna dance in the light of a pale, new moon
Gonna turn my self into a wolf
Gonna tie Ireland and Scotland into a knot
Gonna tie old England down to a bridge
Gonna make those ships burn and sink
Gonna turn this corn field, into a black mass...because i can
The howling dogs gonna be my choir
Gonna crown myself, in a ring of hell fire
