Song title The Writ
Artist Black Sabbath
the way i feel is the way i am
i wish id walked before i started to run to you
just to you
what kind of people do you think we are?
another joker whos a rock and roll star for you
just for you
the faithful image of another man
the endless ocean of emotion i swam for you
yeah for you
the shot troopers laying down on the floor
i wish theyd put an end to my running war with you
yeah with you
are you metal
are you man?
youve changed a lot since you began
yeah began
ladies digging gold from you
will they still dig now youre through
yeah youre through
you bought and sold me with your lying words
the voices in the deck that you never heard came through
yeah came through
your folly finally got to spend with a gun
a poison father and his poisonous son
thats you
yeah thats you
im begging please dont let it get any worse
the anger inside will turn to a curse on you
yeah curse you
a lot of promises that never came true
youre gonna get whats coming to you
thats true
ah
thats true
are you satan
are you man?
youve changed a lot since it began
yeah it began
vultures sucking gold from you
will they still suck now youre through
cats
rats
the search is on
so you just better run
and find yourself another way
rob the dead
then youll feel a thing
to keep them living for another day
rats
rat
you are nonentity
you have no destiny
you are a figment of a thing unknown
a mantle picture of a stolen soul
a fornication of your golden throne
a smiling face
it means the world to me
yeah
so tired of sadness and of misery
yeah
my life it started some time ago
where it will end
i dont know
i thought i was so good
i thought i was fine
i feel my world is out of time
but everything is gonna work out fine
yeah
if it dont i think ill lose my mind
yeah
i know
i know
i know
yeah yeah i know
listen to me while i sing this song
you might just think the words are wrong
too many people advising me
but they dont know what my eyes see
