Jet Black Lyrics - Virgin Steele

[Music: De Feis/Pursino, lyrics: De Feis] 

Naked as an angel 

Stone love eye to eye 

Six gun singing' stranger 

Dust raised, born to die 

Funeral train comin' 

In the hours of the damned 

Lock your daughters weeping 

Keep'em from this voodoo man 

[Chorus:] 

Jet Black- black as the river flown 

Black as my heart on a night of love 

Jet Black- under the burning sky 

(Black is the love the we used to share) 

Hidin' on the outside 

The kill completes the chase 

Sidewalk screamin' rat race 

Ev'ry fuckin' day 

Runnin' from the wreckage 

Of this burned out paradise 

Our love becomes a weapon 

My eyes reflect the night 

[Chorus] 

(Black is the space between the stars) 

...Oh, you got it right now 

Blood and gasoline 

Crucify my spirit 

Don't gimme your prayers 

Watch her walk... see the silence 

Watch the venom drip... 

...Drip from her legs 

Like diamonds.. like wine 

Cool child... let it go... 

[Chorus] 

(She's got the eyes I wanna roll) 

Jet Black- you got my heart 

You got my soul- I wanna love 

Jet Black- black as the night 

Black is the way.. 

The world will end.
