Sin After Sin
Album - 22 aprile 1977 - Debaser id 36205

Sinner rider, rides in with the storm
The devil rides beside him,
The devil is his god, God help you mourn
Do you, do you hear it, do you hear the thunder
Deafen every living thing about
Can you, can you see it, can you
See the mountains darken yonder
Black sun rising, time is running out

Sacrifice to vice or die by the hand of the
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!

His steed of fury,
Eyes of fire and mane ablaze
Demonic vultures stalking
Drawn by the smell of war and pain
He roams the starways
Searching for the carcasses of war
But if its hungry then its very presence
Disrupts the calm into the storm

Curse and damn you all, you'll fall by the hand of the
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!

God of the devils, God of the devils
Won't you help them pray?
God of the devils, God of the devils
Is there no other way?

Can't you hear their souls calling out in their plight?
Can't you see their blood is boiling setting them alight?

Thirty years now sleeping, so sound
War raises its head, and looks slowly around
The sinner is near, sensing the fear
And the beast will start movin' around

Can't you see their souls calling out in their brain
Can't you hear their blood is boiling setting them alight

Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!

Sacrifice to vice or die by the hand of the
Curse and damn you all, you fall by the hand of the
Sinner!

I'll be damned, here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual
It's just that the moon is full
And you decided to call

And here I sit, hand on the telephone
Hearing the voice I'd known
A couple of light years ago
Headed straight for a fall

But we both know what memories can bring
They bring Diamonds and Rust
Yes we both know what memories can bring
They bring Diamonds and Rust

Now I see you standing with brown leaves all around and snow in your hair
Now we're smiling out the window of the crummy hotel over Washington Square
Our breath comes in white clouds, mingles and hangs in the air
Speaking strictly for me we both could've died then and there

Now you're telling me you're not nostalgic
Then give me another word for it
You were so good with words
And at keeping things vague

Cause I need some of that vagueness now
It's all come back too clearly, yes, I love you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust, I've already paid

But we both know what memories can bring
They bring Diamonds and Rust
Yes we both know what memories can bring
They bring Diamonds and Rust

Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust
Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust
Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust
Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust

Look out, here's Starbreaker
Cruisin' into town
Set his mind to stealin'
Every little heart around

Step out on the sidewalks
If you're feeling game
He comes but once a lifetime
Never seen again

Starbreaker
Glides in from the sky
Starbreaker
Takes you up so high

Paradise is waiting
For the chosen few
Let's hope maybe this time
He picks me and you

Star voyage to a new world
Light-year miles away
Cross your fingers, here he is
Take us now this day

Starbreaker
Glides in from the sky
Starbreaker
Takes you up so high

Starbreaker, take my hand
Starbreaker, understand
Starbreaker, you're the one
Starbreaker, lead us on and on

Look out, here's Starbreaker
Cruisin' into town
Set his mind to stealin'
Every heart around

Step out on the sidewalks
If you're feeling game
He comes but once a lifetime
Never ever seen again, oh

Starbreaker
Glides in from the sky
Starbreaker
Takes you up so high

Starbreaker
Glides in from the sky
Starbreaker
Takes you up so high

Starbreaker
Glides in from the sky
Starbreaker
Takes you up so high

Starbreaker
Glides in from the sky
Starbreaker
Takes you up so high

Starbreaker
Starbreaker
Starbreaker
Starbreaker
Starbreaker, breaker
Starbreaker

Once I dreamed that love would come and sweep me up away
Now it seems life's passed me by, I'm still alone today
Here come the tears

Looks like it'll always be the same
No one here to comfort me
Here come the tears

All alone, no one cares
So much to give to you all out there
Take me now, in your arms
Let me rest, safe from harm

Oh, I want to be loved
I need to be loved
Won't somebody love me?

Here they come, here come the tears
Here they come, here come the tears
Here come the tears, here come the tears
Here come the tears, here come the tears
Here come the tears, here come the tears
Here come the tears, here come the tears
Here come the tears, here come the tears

Grand canyons of space and time universal
My mind is subjected to all

Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl!
Hooks to my brain are well in
Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl!
I know what I am, I'm Berlin

Through cracked, blackened memories of unit dispersal
I face the impregnable wall

Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl!
Hooks to my brain are well in
Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl!
I know what I am, I'm Berlin

Exploding, reloading, this quest never ending
Until I give out my last breath

I'm stabbing and bawling, I'm punching and crawling
Hooks to my brain are well in
I'm stabbing and bawling, I'm punching and crawling
I know what I am, I'm Berlin
