Stand and Deliver

Stand and Deliver
by JDW

>opening guitar riff<

From the time of the angels
descending down from heaven
From the time of the covenant
hypocrites come avenging
From the time of the stone age
to the rift of the world's end
well the damned will be condemned
by the blood of the inn-o-cent

ALL MY YEARS
FACED MY FEARS
ONE MORE TIME
I'M READY
TO CROSS THAT LINE

ALL THESE YEARS
ALL THOSE TEARS
ONE MORE TIME
I'M READY
TO FACE YOU DOWN

Something acidic and I'm
ever so blindingly wicked
Illusions that call my name
they resound with your images
Ever so bittersweet and
I am so in love with you
Invite me inside, my pretty
So I can eat you all up (in one gulp~!)

ALL MY YEARS
FACED MY FEARS
ONE MORE TIME
I'M READY
TO CROSS THAT LINE

WASTE THESE YEARS
FACED YOUR TEARS
ONE MORE TIME
I'M READY
TO FACE YOU DOWN

(bridge)

Little red riding ho-od
Counting out her sheep (don't you dare)
Little red riding ho-od
Go on and make your mistakes, darlin'
You are not alone, I am here
You taste so sweet to me, my dear
You taste so sweet to me, my dear
(Why don't you walk with me, my dear)

ALL THESE YEARS
TASTE YOUR FEARS
ONE MORE TIME
I'M READY
TO CROSS THAT LINE

GONE, THESE YEARS
AND NOW I TASTE YOUR TEARS
ONE MORE TIME
I'M READY
TO FACE YOU DOWN

Something wicked walked away
Trembling deep down inside
Withered away within me
The fragile bits, my humanity
Look on down the road and see
The truth for all to behold
A wondrous and terrible thing
Do not try to look away

ALL MY YEARS
SUM OF ALL FEARS
ONE MORE TIME
I'M READY
TO TAKE THAT LINE

ALL THESE YEARS
ALL THESE TEARS
ONE MORE TIME
I'M READY
TO FACE YOU DOWN

ALL YOUR YEARS
WASTE YOUR TEARS
A FINAL TIME
ARE YA READY
TO FACE THIS LINE

WASTE YOUR YEARS
OR TASTE YOUR TEARS
IT'S CRUMBLIN' DOWN
THE MOMENT
YOU LOOK AROUND
