I am the author
Dream up your pain
Drink as did Bacchus
Re-bel just like Cain

Lord of the city
I shall remain
All Pandemonium
I shall reign

Set in my fortress
Up on my hill
Drinkin' the wine
'Till I've had my fill

Building up high
My castle walls
All to veil
My splendid fall

I present you
I present to you
I present you
This Crown of Worms
[Repeat]

Oh-o
Solo

Surrounding myself
With misery
Drawn curtains heavy
Of my history

Exquisite I am
Perfect unity
On my left hand is
False majesty

I feign affection
Refute the true story
Dispute with creation
The lie is my glory

I care for no one
My gospel is death
For me the light's gone
Only darkness is left

I present you
I present to you
I present you
This Crown of Worms
[Repeat]

Oh-o-o-oh-o
Solo

As black in deed
As cold as stone
A commandment of one
As proud as gold

Neglected in spirit
As time is old
As Legion is numbers
As legend is told

I am alone
With agony of truth
My power of will
My judgement and chain

My end is knowledge
And conscience of guilt
My final confusion
Hidden from me 'til I'm done

Hey! look around you
Everything's helter-skelter
Listen up! I warn you
Run for cover, Run

Bang! It happened
Time's up, Armageddon
Fire, Meltdown
The sky is crumblin' in

Black Curtains
Never ending
Black Curtains

Escape! You're joking
Can't find no place to run
Hair, is burning
My flesh is bubblin' up

Blood, is boiling
Taste copper on my tongue
Fate, is coming
Welcome it with a smile

Black Curtains
Never ending
Black Curtains

Fall___

Black Curtains
Never ending
Black Curtains

Something's under my skin
Something's very strange
Playing with my mind
Tempting me to join the Klan

Am I dreaming? My heart pounds my chest
Held for ransom, in a spider's web
Suffocating, No one hears my calls
Never ending, 'till the Black Curtain falls___

Solo

S-nakes! Surround me
Offering their death kiss to me
Down, I'm drowning
How long, I hold my breath

Dogs! Are chasing
My legs are paralyzed
Pray, don't find me
My life is fading fast

Black Curtains
Never ending
Black Curtains

Fall___

Black Curtains
Never ending
Black Curtains


Train of Consequences

I'm doing you a favor
As I'm taking all your money
I guess I should feel sorry
But I don't even trust me

There's bad news creeping up
And you feel a sudden chill
How do you do? My name is Trouble
I'm coming in for the kill

In for the
Kill
Ooo, and you know I will

Ooo

Chorus:
Set the ball a-rollin
I'll be clicking off the miles
On the Train of Consequences
My boxcar life o' style
My thinkin' is derailed
I'm tied up to the tracks
The Train of Consequences
There ain't no turning back

Aou'

No horse ever ran as fast
As the money that you bet
I'm blowing on my cards
And I play them to my chest

Life's fabric is corrupt
Shot through with corroded thread
As for me I hocked my brains
Packed my bags and headed west, Ah

I hocked my brains
headed west

Oh, [Chorus]

Solo

Oh, [Chorus Repeat]

Harmonica
