Restless sinner rest in sin
He's got no face to hold him in
He fills his days as dark as night
He's been waiting with the blind
Just to find a place to hide his ghost

Unopened eyes, no consequence
The door's been closed since he's walked in
The fight's been raging so many days
He'll greet you with a cross and a sickle
As he helps you in

You fall in waste, an open fire
You've got no taste for his desire
He brings you in to warm your bones
He's the reason why you came
And the reason why you ought to go

Fool's gonna fall and raise
Another fallen child
Fool's gonna fall and raise
Another fallen child
Fool's gonna fall and raise
Another fallen child

It can't be known what lies in wait
For those of us in crippled states
A broken mind is no escape
When there's no one left to reason with
There's no one left to call your name

Fool's gonna fall and raise
Another fallen child
Fool's gonna fall and raise
Another fallen child
Fool's gonna fall and raise
Another fallen child
Fool's gonna fall and raise
Another fallen child
Fool's gonna fall and raise
Another fallen child
Fool's gonna fall and raise
Another fallen child
Fool's gonna fall and raise
Another fallen child

Sounds like a tune for Sons of Anarchy or maybe Walking Dead?



Sounds like Blitzen Trapper to me.

Would that be in the verbiage of.... "Can I " axe" you a question?" Lol

Discussion on whether the Italian Lira should join most other European currencies and become the Euro?

 No. Not IMO. But I do believe this is the only song of theirs I like.

The terrific song set continues; amazing RP. It does make me think about the past for some reason, probably due to the music mix and the way it's done; only on RP. I wish I could get that long-lost love out of my head. I feel like getting high.

That is spot on, and a 'sipping liquor' (as I believe youse across the Pond call it) at that. I can see BRMC as a well-aged malt whiskey, full-bodied with sweet notes, perhaps a Bunnahabhainn or a Macallan. Yummy {#Cheers}

Never heard of these guys until now. This is why I listen to RP and send a modest donation once and while: great place to hear new (to me, anyway) music.

This tune tells me that blues seems to be everywhere... I like the groove and harmonies on this tune.

Not the best song from the album, but good none-the-less!

 Means that they play the guitar very good

I like them better when they don't try to do this kind of style...

At the risk of sounding like an old fart, maybe this is why I don't get into too many of the new bands. I saw that "Hunger Strike" by Temple of the Dog has received many poor reviews. I'm not sure how anyone can take this warbling over Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder. These new singers just can't hold their own against the greats from even 15 years ago.

I just have to ask, and I do realize that perhaps this is asked to the wrong people {#Crowded}, but does someone else hear alot of Nemesis Divina (Satyricon) in the guitar (esp. the intro in both songs)?

"Mums" as they say in Sweden; which means yum pretty much. nice song, nice sound, good for a modern cowboy riding on the range.

Singer sounds like the offspring of Jerry Garcia and Bob Dylan. And didn't Bobby's good, late friend, Allen Ginsberg, write a poem entitled Howl?

a deserved 8 to this song...i didn't like the album though, uncomparable with the 1st...

This cut is from an absolutely great album, that I picked up on a whim after seeing it mentioned on a number of "Best Of" lists for 2005. Didn't know anything about BRMC beforehand, but glad I found this. A real gem.

I haven't heard HOWL or this song before, but am a fan of BRMC ... this song just solidifies my fandom. Yummmy ... what a voice, soooo moody, delicious!

I'll have to give this more time - following Alexi Murdoch's "Orange Sky" put this song at a big disadvantage. Stay tuned...
