Mother
Mother, you've been good to me
Mother, kept me from what I shouldn't see
Taught me life was sweet and grand
Told me goodness came from man
Mother, you lied to me!
All those years in your arms
Tucked away from worldly harms
Behind you apron strings I saw
Life was happy free to all
Mother, take a look around
Mother, take a look at what I found
Greedy people everywhere
No compassion, they just don't care
Mother, you lied to me Oh! you, you lied to me
All those years in your arms
Tucked away from worldly harms
Behind you apron strings I saw
Life was happy free to all
Mother , why was I conceived
Given life then made to breath
Born through Love, then tossed away
Left to face the world each day

Humble
We need to know our destined fate
We need to know don't make us wait
Tell me the answers, tell me now
Give me direction, show me how
Let me know what's planed for me
Pain and sorrow won't let me be
Can you tell me , won't you share
Your mystic secrets, Don't you care
You have the power You have the might
To change the world From wrong to right
Why make us suffer Live alone
Let us into your Worldly home
Through countless times
You ruled all things
Gave life to man
Created kings
Were we made to touch his lips
Then kneel in fear
Humbleness

Keep On
Keep on the door will close
Close and lock you away
Cold winds wait, the sun don't shine
Look at all you leave behind
Keep on the door will close
Close and lock you in
Steal your loneliness
Take you where you've never been
Keep on the path is clear, see the truth
It's coming near
Lose yourself behind the door
No one wants you anymore
Keep on the door will close
Close and lock you away
Cold winds wait, the sun don't shine
Look at all you leave behind
Keep On the door will close
close and lock you out:
Icy fingers wait to shake your hand
Take your life if they can
Keep on the door will close
Close and lock you away
Cold winds wait, the sun don't shine
Look at all you leave behind

Idealist / Realest
Hey look at me, I'm just like you
Abused through out the day
No matter what we do or say
We hurt someone, something some way
When will you see the light
When will you start your change
You need not suffer
Just find a way to rearrange
Idealists dream of flowered worlds
The realist feels the dirt
No matter what we try to seek
It will not come and kiss our cheek
No time to taste your mothers pie
Or freak the ones you meet
Don't let you life just wonder by
Make it something clean and sweet

Feel the Hurt

Feel The Hurt
Should I think about my sorrow
That I know I can not change
So distant seems my happiness,
So real is my pain
You gave me a reason to live,
But now you've gone away
I need someone to help me,
Make it through the day
I've searched through many teardrops,
I feel I can't go on
My burden seems so heavy,
Each hour seems so long
So distant seems my happiness,
So real is my pain
I feel I'm losing the one I love
I feel I'm losing you!
Should I think about my sorrow,
That I know I can not change
So distant seems my happiness,
So real is my pain
You gave me a reason to live,
But now you've gone away
I need someone to help me,
Make it through the day

Tomorrow
So today your not happy, Happy at all
Why don't you tell me, Tell me it all
Don't turn your back, don't make me guess
Tell me I'll listen, the hurt will be less
Tomorrow may be a beautiful day
Tomorrow may bring a much better way
To find yourself and what you must do
To face all the problems, that are facing you
You need a friend, a listening ear
Someone to talk to, someone sincere
Knowing arms to hold you tight
Someone to be with through out the night
Tomorrow may be a beautiful day
Tomorrow may bring a much better way
To find yourself and what you must do
To face all the problems, that are facing you

Bow to the King
Bow to the King
He's marching down the aisle
His subjects start to scream
They've waited quite a while
The King is dressed in red
His fist are hard as lead
He's waited months to meet,
The man he's going to beat
Bow to the King
He slowly steps inside
Across the canvas hide
He hears the bell to fight
He's blinded by the light
Bow to the King!
The King begins to move
His movements are so smooth
The man moves to his right
His eye's are filled with fright
The King connects a right
The man is turning white
A jab has crushed his jaw
Tthe man begins to fall
In fifteen seconds flat
He's put him on the mat
The man is counted out
The King has won the bout
As the bell begins to ring
The crowd salutes their king
With fist up high, they jab the sky
He's won again they sing

BANG Dallas, Texas
Surely one of the most unsung bands in the history of American hard rock music, BANG released three full-length albums for Capitol Records in the early 70’s, that criminally sank without a trace. Capitol artist development at the time just did not know what to do with the band that was often called America’s answer to Black Sabbath. ... more
