Curl Of The Burl lyrics by Mastodon from The Hunter album

admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:30:04 +0000

I killed a man ’cause he killed my goat
I put my hands around his throat
He tried to reason with the sky and the clouds
But it didn’t matter, ’cause they can’t hear a sound

Oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh oh

It’s just the curl of the burl
It’s just the curl of the burl
That’s just the way of the world
It’s just the curl of the burl

Splinters in my skin just like needles and pins
I cut through the pine, love the feeling it gives
But I’ll never die, running through these streets
I’m using my hands, cutting through the disease

Oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh oh

It’s just the curl of the burl
It’s just the curl of the burl
That’s just the way of the world
It’s just the curl of the burl

I feel powerless
Chew it up, spit the rest
I feel powerless
Chew it up, spit the rest

It’s just the curl of the burl
It’s just the curl of the burl
That’s just the way of the world
It’s just the curl of the burl

Oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh oh

Black Tongue lyrics by Mastodon from The Hunter album

admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:29:59 +0000

I burned out my eyes
I cut off my tongue
I sealed them with all of the silver
And now I have none

You killed the life
You took the diamond
You killed the vine
Death of the…

You own the darkness
And taken my sight
You buried the stars underground
You’ve stolen the night

You can run to the sea
You can run to the forest
You can hide
But you’ll never escape

You’ve run out of lies
You’ve run out of time

You killed the life
You took the diamond
You killed the vine
Death of the sun

The Hunter lyrics by Mastodon from The Hunter album

admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:29:57 +0000

All the love I’ve shown
Given to the ones I’ve known
All the love I make
Is equal to the love I take
All the life I’ve known
Given to the life I’ve shown
Along the way

Free from it all
Breathe in the darkest fall
We laugh and cry through a brother’s eyes for now

Through fire embers glow
Haunted I lift the stone
Letting go your spirit flies

All the love I’ve shown
Given to the ones I’ve known
All the love I make
Is equal to the love I take
All the life I’ve known
Given to the life I’ve shown
Along the way

Free from it all
Breathe in the darkest fall
We laugh and cry through a brother’s eyes for now

Through fire embers glow
Haunted I lift the stone
Letting go your spirit flies

His thorns are on the road
His thorns are on the road

In the morning light
The sparrow flies
When the moon devours us
The planet dies

Free from it all
Breathe in the darkest fall
We laugh and cry through a brother’s eyes for now

Through fire embers glow
Haunted I lift the stone
Letting go your spirit flies

All The Heavy Lifting lyrics by Mastodon from The Hunter album

admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:29:56 +0000

Lift you up again
Give you to the trees
All sound and visions are
What they ask of me
Let’s run fast through the fields
Over mountaintops
Let’s swim through ocean water
And we’ll never stop

Just close your eyes
And pretend that everything’s fine
Just close your eyes
I’ll tell you when

Can you show me
Where to find the stream
I’ve been told before
That the water’s clean
Will you come with me
Two of us can drink
Move quick we’ve got to hurry
There’s no time to think

Just close your eyes
And pretend that everything’s fine
Just close your eyes
I’ll tell you when

We didn’t come this far
Just to turn around
We didn’t come this far
Just to run away

Just ahead
We will hear the sound
The sound that gives us
A brand new day

Just close your eyes
And pretend that everything’s fine
Just close your eyes
I’ll tell you when

Octopus Has No Friends lyrics by Mastodon from The Hunter album

admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:29:54 +0000

To tempt the fool into the mine
Let loose the snake with antidote

Take the hand
Guide the way
Far away
Find the truth
Always / Always

I’m on my way back home
I’m on my way back home

I see your face inside the smoke
It’s hard to scream and nice to choke

Take the hand
Guide the way
Far away
Find the truth
Always / Always

I’m on my way back home
I’m on my way back home

Let’s rest awhile inside the cave
Don’t cry you’ll see that we’ll be safe

Take the hand
Guide the way
Far away
Find the truth
Always / Always

Take your heart into your hand
Always
Take your heart into your hand
Always

I’m on my way back home
I’m on my way back home

Stargasm lyrics by Mastodon from The Hunter album

admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:29:52 +0000

The temple of bodies
A building with souls
Given the cosmos
As we let go / As we let go

Locked in a dance
Surrounding the moon
This far from the clouds
Stargasm flows
Stargasm

Lead us by horses
On the way to our graves
Father the owl
It is your faith / It is your faith

Awake in the moment
Awaken the heart
Look to the spirits
Stargasm glows
Stargasm

And then we shift into overdrive
But you’re not here
And your legs and the stars collide
You’re on fire / You’re on fire / You’re on fire

Henged from the solstice
Bohemian grave
Flesh lies the altar
As we let go / As we let go

Glasses are empty
The owl has flown
Sever relation
Like you didn’t know / Like you didn’t know

And then we shift into overdrive
But you’re not here
And your legs and the stars collide
You’re on fire / You’re on fire / You’re on fire

Blasteroid lyrics by Mastodon from The Hunter album

admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:29:51 +0000

Change your hair
Change your clothes
I’ll rearrange your face for you

If you can breathe
When I am through
I’ll give it all right back to you

I wanna drink some fucking blood
I wanna break some fucking glass
I wanna squeeze you till you’re inside out
I want it all

Change your name
Change your eyes
Become the one who I despise

If you are sad
And need to cry
Then turn around and go outside

I wanna drink some fucking blood
I wanna break some fucking glass
I wanna squeeze you till you’re inside out
I want it all

Pursue happiness with diligence

Bedazzled Fingernails lyrics by Mastodon from The Hunter album

admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:29:45 +0000

Give and take
We are full of pride
All is proved in time

Lay me down
Stand my ground
Lay me down
Stand my ground

Taking a life
I see it flash before my eyes

Rule by the head
Endure test of time
Plant the seed of mind

Lay me down
Stand my ground
Lay me down
Stand my ground

Taking a life
I see it flash before my eyes

Spectrelight lyrics by Mastodon from The Hunter album

admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:29:43 +0000

We trip the light
Firebird flies
Burn your inside

Given a lesson
The path I’ve shown
Follow all I know

Into the spectrelight
Into the afterlife

It came from the ocean
Gift of the sea
Lava forms the stone

Belief in power
Believe the dream
Trust your own truth

Into the spectrelight
Into the afterlife

You listen through the light
Tolling on the sea
Barren eyes behind you
Leave the shadows waking dreams
Rising through the door
Writhing with a knife
Cut speech / Cut light / Cut chord
And break the dawning wretch of silence

Trust your own truth

Souls of the fallen
Death of the godhead
Listen and breathe

Into the spectrelight
Into the afterlife
