1. Red (Instrumental)
|
|
2. Fallen Angel
|
|
Tears of joy at the birth of a brother
|
Never alone from that time
|
Sixteen Years through knife fights and danger
|
Strangely why his life not mine
|
|
West side skyline crying
|
Fallen angel dying
|
Risk a life to make a dime
|
|
Lifetimes spent on the streets of a city
|
Make us the people we are
|
Switchblade stings in one tenth of a moment
|
Better get back to the car
|
|
Snow white side streets of cold New York City
|
Stained with his blood it all went wrong
|
Sick and tired blue wicked and wild
|
God only knows for how long
|
|
Fallen angel
|
Fallen angel
|
West side skyline
|
Crying for an angel dying
|
Life expiring in the city
|
Fallen angel...

3. One More Red Nightmare
|
|
Pan American nightmare
|
Ten thousand feet fun-fair
|
Convinved that I don't care
|
It's safe as houses I swear
|
I was just sitting musing
|
The virtues of cruising
|
When altitude dropping
|
My ears started popping
|
One more red nightmare
|
|
Sweat beginning to pour down
|
My neck as I turn round
|
I heard fortune shouting
|
Just get off of this outing
|
A farewell swan song
|
See you know how turbulence can be
|
The stewardess made me (*see note*)
|
One more red nightmare
|
|
Reality stirred me
|
My angel had heard me
|
The prayer had been answered
|
A reprieve has been granted
|
The dream was now broken
|
Thought rudely awoken
|
Really safe and sound
|
Asleep on the Greyhound
|
One more red nightmare
|
|
4. Providence (Instrumental)
|
|
5. Starless
|
|
Sundown dazzling day
|
Gold through my eyes
|
But my eyes turned within
|
Only see
|
Starless and bible black
|
|
Ice blue silver sky
|
Fades into grey
|
To a grey hope that oh years to be
|
Starless and bible black
|
|
Old friend charity
|
Cruel twisted smile
|
And the smile signals emptiness
|
For me
|
Starless and bible black
|
|
