Black Fog

The winter' s cold but this moon's bright
She said I had the power and she might be right
This damsel in distress recites me my last will:
"When I shoot you baby its to kill"

Black Fog Rising as the earth stood still
Black Fog Rising over deep blue sea,
Black fog rising over me

If you gonna go down, go down in flames
Why kiss the devil, spit in his face!
Like a Gypsy to a corporal on that fine morn’
If all hell breaks loose, show it your scorn

Black Fog Rising as the earth stood still
Black Fog Rising over deep blue sea,
Black fog rising over me

Im gonna lose the battle before its even begun
What good is fighting when you already won?
The lost son is the loved one
But what good is love when he is gone?


Black Fog Rising as the earth stood still
Black Fog Rising over deep blue sea,
Black fog rising over me

Live for art but die for money
Im a fallen man in a fallen land honey
I look you in the eye, you scar your despair
if its skin deep baby, what is the fear?

Black Fog Rising as the earth stood still
Black Fog Rising over deep blue sea,
Black fog rising over me

For her Id tear many moons apart
She gave me trouble as I gave her my hart
I raise my cup cause you all know the spell
A woman's scorn is a bat outa hell

Black Fog Rising as the earth stood still
Black Fog Rising over deep blue sea,
Black fog rising over me

Whats on your mind, is that dirt?
And you still wonder, you still get hurt
You, who build a bridge from here to there
Can not connect the dots from ear to ear

Black Fog Rising as the earth stood still
Black Fog Rising over deep blue sea,
Black fog rising over me
