It Begins Tonight

I'm red, I'm black, I'm city born Mau Mau scarecrow, far from home I'm faceless, nameless, right or wrong I'm fearless, hopeless, sing my song Out go the lights It begins tonight On stage with borrowed angel's sword And a crossword puzzle of stolen chords I'm alive but those I love are gone Let's move tonight and take the throne Out go the lights It begins tonight Oh lord, it begins tonight Oh lord, oh lord, it begins tonight Oh lord, oh lord, it begins tonight Cell door clicks open I come alive Oh lord, it begins tonight I followed the rules What did that bring? Looked just where you told me I never found a thing Yeah, I see all the jewels Gold and diamonds glistenin' I see your mouth movin' But man I ain't listenin' Sun and moon and stone and mud A bottle of whiskey and a pint of blood I'll burn my way to the sea 'Til all are dead or all are free Out go the lights It begins tonight Oh lord, it begins tonight Oh lord, oh lord, it begins tonight Oh lord, oh lord, it begins tonight Cell door clicks open I come alive Oh lord, it begins tonight
