What Song Are You Listening to Right Now

I've got "Faint" by Linkin Park stuck in my head. I've been catching up on the lyrics a little, since I'm going to go see them in Hamburg next week. Squee! :)
 
Lucifer's Friend
Wow, there's a name I haven't seen in a while.

Funny story, around 1988-89, I was at work and had on the Styx II CD.

Their early stuff was pretty keyboard heavy. So this guy, who looked exactly like a young Charles Manson, asked if I was listening to Lucifer's Friend.

I hadn't heard of them, so it was kind of a "weird" moment, what with this guy being Manson & all, but as usual I was curious, so I went to a used record shop a few weeks later and bought most of their albums on vinyl (minus the 2 non-Lawton ones and Mean Machine).

I got a couple of them on CD when they were actually available around 1999, and "ripped" the rest a couple years ago from the LP's.

Great stuff, and I also have the Uriah Heep collection, including the three with John Lawton.
 
Well I know, you couldn't love me
'cause you're promised to, a wealthy man
take a look, what are you seeing
is that a noose, or a wedding band?​

Should I go, to see a healer
nervous twitchin' in my hands
nervous twitchin' in my head​

God help me rid this feelin'
'cause I'm fallin' all to pieces
and I can't get out of bed​

Beggars and hangers-on
try to take you from me
someone with a bible in his pocket
clouding everything you see​

Beggars and hangers-on
they chip it away
bury your soul in the river
'cause the end is here to stay​

God help me rid this feelin'
'cause I'm fallin' all to pieces
and I can't get out of bed​

I was wrong I don't need you
it seems reckless and unfair
better days
are far behind
guess that's another cross I'll have to bare​

I know that there's a time and a reason
to take the ghost and lock it up inside
and maybe I am down
but I'm not beaten
like anything
we were born to die​

Beggars and hangers-on
try to take you from me
someone with a bible in his pocket
clouding everything you see
Beggars and hangers-on
no no no no
no no no no
no no no no​
