The Black Book

There came a time I'd had all I could take

Life on the edge, my mind about to break

Parents said they'd warned me and my friends said

It's a shame

Doctor said the stress was playing tricks upon my brain



Doctor he told me I had to get away

Climbed a jet liner, bound for the UK

Resting in the countryside, L.A. far behind

Something deep inside was playing tricks in side my mind

Tricks inside my mind



There in the wall it lay throughout the years

Pages of secrets, the source of all their fears

Hidden reasons, flashing eyes, something isn't right

What can you do when you're running out of sight

Hiding from the light



Nightmares waken me at night

Shadows hiding from the night



[Solos: Kenny Andrews / Chet Thompson / Kenny Andrews / Chet Thompson]



Old parchment pages that crack when opened wide

There in the Black Book the magic came alive

Hidden reasons, flashing eyes, something isn't right

What can you do when you're hiding out of sight

Welcoming the night



Shadows waken me at night

See the Black Book come alive
