DIAMOND HEAD LYRICS

1. Bones

Lightning strikes the earth
Builds man from ashes
He’s humble, he reaps, he grows
Watched it all erode
He trembles and hides
In his castle that’s made of your bones

And all that you gave
Watch the whole world crumble
And wasted away
Your greed will seed the end

On the edge
On the edge
On the edge
On the edge of your bones

Erupting in hatred
Man will deplete all your heart, your love, your soul
Reflect on the ages
We tremble and hide
In the castle that’s made of your bones

And all that you gave
Watch the whole world crumble
And wasted away
Your greed will seed the end

On the edge
On the edge
On the edge
On the edge of your bones

On the edge
On the edge
On the edge
On the edge of your bones

While you run on the edge
Once you run on the edge

2. Shout At The Devil

See his eyes, the fear is your symbol
Blackened skies, your courage a cinder
Hold on with every breath inside your blood
Hold on to what you know and all you love

All I can say is in the end we all must pay
These crimson tears and scattered ashes fill your graves
Hold on to what you know and love my friend
Cause all we know is this is now never the end

Here he comes, to steal your life
Don’t you run, shout at the devil
Here we come, to heal your lights
Avenge your blood, shout at the devil

He lives and hides amongst all the shadows
Watches in pride as he heralds depression
Hold on with every breath inside your blood
Hold on to what you know and all you love

With every hour’s turn the tables drift and dices burn
Withered secret fill the void, ignites the fire, strength returns
Hold on to what you know and love my friend
Cause all we know is this is now never the end

Here he comes, to steal your life
Don’t you run, shout at the devil
Here we come, to heal your lights
Avenge your blood, shout at the devil

You see him you raise your heads
Never feel afraid
Oh now raise your dead
Cause in the end you will prevail

Here he comes, to steal your life
Don’t you run, shout at the devil
Here we come, to heal your lights
Avenge your blood, shout at the devil

Shout at the devil

3. Set My Soul On Fire

Lost my head while sleeping with your madness
Your ink and bones are the weapons of disasters
Hate the witness, silence in oppression
Burn their scriptures, write your gospel, change the nation

Yeah, yeah, set my soul on fire
Yeah, yeah, set my soul on fire

Reign on earth let the puppets kill their masters
The silver nooses fill the streets before the rapture
Blacked out windows bleached for new redemption
The city weeps, the pieces set, reclaim the nation

Yeah, yeah, set my soul on fire
Yeah, yeah, set my soul on fire

Before today I lit this fire
Before this day I Iived this lie

Unmarked doors, no more tribute to the tower
Now their strings are cut, the people have the power

Yeah, yeah, set your soul on fire
Yeah, yeah, set that soul on fire

Before today I lit this fire
Before this day I Iived this lie

Yeah set my soul
Yeah set my soul on fire

4. See You Rise

I feel the laser surging through my head
Until my blood begins to boil
Sweet taste of mercury fills my mouth
Kiss of death is at the door

But I see you rise again
Now rise with me

This vengeful gravity illudes my mind
Soon I face the masters call
The smell of burnt divinity twists my lungs
His pit will swallow me up whole

But I see you rise again
Now rise with me

Rise up, become the heir
Bring the blackest of days
Won’t you rise within
I see you rise again

Last breath of mutiny before the reaper comes
And drowns me in the oil
With his loaded ember gun, he pulls the trigger back
And watch me turn to dust

But I see you rise again
Now rise with me

Rise up, become the heir
Bring the blackest of days
Won’t you rise within
I see you rise again

5. All The Reasons You Live

Prepare for war
The barren lands they have spoken
Now it’s time for us to tremble the earth
Messengers
A breath of fire, lights the beacons
Raise an army and take back your home

Once a slave
A man can conquer a kingdom
Take their crown and send them to hell
Once a slave
He took a stand with his treason
Rid the world from misery

There’s a man,there’s a man
Who bleeds for all the reasons you live
There’s a man who lives among his people
Bleeds for all the reasons you live

Recall the days
Drowning angst, fed the storm
The masses walked to raze a tower’s throne
Mournful haze
Angels fallen all around
Can’t you see their withered broken grace

Golden gates
Stained in holy blood
War has risen to the highest plane
No reprieve
Swords will rain from heavens
Kill off all the misery

There’s a man, there’s a man
Who bleeds for all the reasons you live
There’s a man who lives among his people
Bleeds for all the reasons you live

He bleeds for all the reason you live
He bleeds for all the reason you live

There’s a man, there’s a man
He bleeds for all the reasons you live
There’s a man who lives among his people
He bleeds for all the reasons you live
He bleeds among the people
There’s a man, he lives among his people
He bleeds for all the reasons you live
He bleeds for all the reasons you live
He bleeds for all the reasons you live

6. Wizards Sleeve

Let the papers read
Legends they were made tonight

Upon these hallowed streets
Where music is the only right
Miles of laces loved, secret lust and broken hearts
But baby trust these lips cause they can never love too much

Won’t you
Be my
Sugar

Can I come inside your wizard sleeve
I know that you wanna go

Helpless tendencies
Will be breaking bonds tonight
Soaked in salty fire
Take my passion and my pride
Miles of faceless love, budget lust and broken hearts
But baby taste these lips cause they can never love too much

Won’t you
Be my
Honey

Can I come inside your wizard sleeve
I know that you wanna go

I’ll hit this show tonight
Touch your love and make you royal
Through all this broken light
Share the thunder make you boil
These miles of reckless love, open lust and broken hearts
Baby taste these lips cause they can never get enough

Won’t you
Be my
Lover

Can I come inside your wizard sleeve
I know that you wanna go

7. Our Time Is Now

Leaking eyes
Smile at their masters
Deforming pride
Cripples the anchor

When they answer to the free
Trialled for their greed
Justice prevails when you’re
Hearing them scream

Enough with this faction
Bleeding the truth
The end of the era
Will be here soon

Evil minds
They hide in the tower
Teething denial
Contorting the hours

When they answer to the free
Trialled for their greed
Justice prevails when you’re
Hearing them scream

Enough with this faction
And bleeding the truth
The end of the era
Will be here soon

Our time is now

Kill all the fascists
Extinguish their breed
Hang all those bastards
From every tree

Call to arms
To strengthen the legion
Dismantle the wall
For the sake of the children

When they answer to the free
Trialled for their greed
Justice prevails when you’re
Hearing them scream

Enough with this faction
And killing the truth
It’s the end of the era
It will be here soon

Woh, woh, woh
Cause our time is now

Kill all the fascists
Extinguish their breed
Hang all those bastards
From every tree

Lynch all the fascists
Finish the deed
String up those bastards
Who shackle the free

8. Speed

Yeah woman, I’m still dreaming
About your sister, the love of my gun
You know she loves all my inspiration
And when she sings to me, my love becomes corrupt

Oh love

Now this woman, my kind of sickness
Such a rush in my veins, my heart it bleeds, it bursts
And all her pleasures could numb my feelings
But I just got to taste the thrill and quench my thirst

Oh love, oh love

Yeah cause I need speed
When I’m dreaming
I need speed while I’m living

Oh love, oh love
Won’t you cut my love

Oh now woman, take my hand
Won’t you bind my lust
Just shut me down for good
Helpless I am, lost in my addiction
Still feel the need for speed for the thrill and for that thirst

Oh love, oh love

Yeah cause I need speed
When I’m dreaming
I need speed while I’m still living

Cause I need speed
When I’m dreaming
I need the speed while I’m living
Cause I need speed, I need speed
I need speed

I need speed

9. Blood On My Hands

Lost my way
Love I ain’t gonna leave you
Alight my grace, my friend
I’ll resurrect my broken ego

I wake up choking on this rage

Please hold my hands
Tie me up and kill my demons
I’ll hold my breath, I said
I won’t wait for your Jesus

I wake up choking on this rage
And find

Blood on my hands
Blood on my hands

And if it comes again
My bullets in the air
I’ll need a real reason
To live it all again

Please hold my hands
I can’t wait for your Jesus

And I drown again, and I drown again
And I drown again, and I drown again
And I drown again, and I drown again
And I drown again

Wake up choking on this rage
And find

Blood on my hands
Blood on my hands
Blood on my hands

10. Diamonds

A timeless veil was lifted
As the lightning struck
Piercing waves echo the sounds above
Sent to reclaim a nation
With steel that never rusts
In every faithful heart
May sirens guide you, grant you gifts of love

Through it all
Countless years away
Settled like a stone
Diamonds are forever

Through it all
Countless centuries
Settled in their bones
Diamonds are forever
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Blackest light inspires youthful minds
Titan tales gifted to present times
Sent to awake a nation
Bolts of electric lust
To every open heart
The sirens they will find you fill you up

Through it all
Countless years away
Settled like a stone
Diamonds are forever

Through it all
And countless centuries
Settled in their bones
Diamonds are forever
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Through it all
Countless years away
Settled like a stone
Diamonds are forever

Through it all
And countless centuries
Settled in their bones
Diamonds are forever
Diamonds are forever
Yeah, yeah, yeah

11. Silence

When the seas kiss the stars
And the moon dulls the light
And your veins turn to dust
Then behold the night when
You sacrificed your flame

Oh human disgrace

For man this is the end
Silence reclaim your land
For man this is the end
Silence reclaim your land

When the breeze cries with pain
Bludgeoned tears pierce the sands
Hear the bells ringing out
And recall the days when you
Dug children’s graves in regret

Oh human disgrace

For man this is the end
Silence reclaim your land
For man this is the end
Silence reclaim your land

Once the end
All reclaimed
In silence
We ring the end
