The River Rise - Mark Lanegan

Oh the river rise And it’s a mile high Is this worth tryin’ Is this worth tryin’ Cause i could fall Like a tear Well there’s nothing else i can do When i’m not alone Nothings beside me What one eye sees The other’s blind in Well i could fall As if i was young […]

Sunrise - Mark Lanegan

Sunrise Forgot to cover up my eyes Sunrise Should’ve covered up my eyes Beauty wasted on me Winds are shakin’ my tree With a woman too good, to believe Take the first ride out that i see Sunrise Skies are servin’ my plan Grounds are movin’ where i stand Pull an airplane down With my […]

Shooting Gallery - Mark Lanegan

I’ll tell you how i woke up on the line My sister i almost saw the light Look my hands are tied I’ll see you in another hallway Some other time Well i don’t understand this big parade It’s a five star decoration day Look my hands are stained I was washin’ ’em the water […]

Riding The Nightingale - Mark Lanegan

Dyin’ mama barely breathin’ in a bed of nails To wander through the ruin smokin’ and pale Came upon an angel and a nightingale Back where the darkness comes Between the earth and skies above Dead weight on my body’s bones I think i dug too deep a hole Think i dug too deep A […]

Pendulum - Mark Lanegan

Jesus christ been here and gone What a painful price to pay He’s left his life in a thunderstorm Tears cold dark eyes upon Swing pendulum, swing low Got no place to call my own Oh my lord don’t you bother me I’m as tired as a man can be I’m as tired as a […]

Kingdoms Of Rain - Mark Lanegan

Are those halos in your hair Or diamonds shining there Without a hope, without a prayer This rain beats down like death You turn your eyes to better men Before i go i’ll hang in a cross on nails I hung on for you in there Girl lay your shame to rest Hope lies close […]

Juarez - Mark Lanegan

(lanegan/fisk) Night train is groovy An orange jubilee Feels good comin’ and goin’ I’m warm all over me Fire up the crack boys And tie off my arm Cinch up my diaper Turn the tv on Give me another blow job Before i’m on the nod Say you’ll always love me and Never do me […]

House A Home - Mark Lanegan

Here ya are, at the top of the tower Could a body take that much Alone through every waking hour Asleep without nobody to touch Whoa,whoa,whoa,and Only silence here Whoa,whoa,whoa,and Lonely silence here And i’m not the one Make your house a home Makes no sense to stay Through one more lonely last day Oh […]

El Sol - Mark Lanegan

The sun is gone, and that’s all i really know No angels in the air With hearts as good as gold The closer you stand to the gates The more the gates are closed These darkened days Make somebody’s hunger and thirst The blessed burns the sun He’s throwin’ shadows on the earth The shadow […]

Dead On You - Mark Lanegan

You were a ragged Turquoise and twilight coat I got my head hung down for you Some day you’re gonna need it But it’s worn or the, cloth gets torn And there’s only one way to go It’s gone dead, dead It’s gone dead on you Take off your ragged Turquoise and twilight coat I […]
