[Osbourne]
Screams break the silence
Waking from the dead of night
Vengence is boiling
He's returned to kill the light
Then when he's found who he's looking for
Listen in awe and you'll hear him
Bark at the moon
Ha ha ha ha ha...
Years spent in torment
Buried in a nameless grave
Now he has risen
Miracles would have to save
Those that the beast is looking for
Listen in awe and you'll hear him
Bark at the moon
Hey yeah, bark at the moon
They cursed and buried him along with shame
And thought his timeless soul had gone, gone
In empty burning hell - unholy one
But he's returned to prove them wrong (so wrong)
Ooh, yeah baby
Howling in shadows
Living in a lunar spell
He finds his heaven
Spewing from the mouth of hell
Those that the beast is looking for
Listen in awe and you'll hear him
Bark at the moon
Hey yeah, bark at the moon
Hey yeah, bark at the moon
Oh Oh yeah, bark at the moon

Youre No Different
[Osbourne]
How many times can you put me down
'Till in your heart you realize
If you chose to criticise you choose your enemies
Everything that I say and do
In your eyes is always wrong
Tell me where do I belong in a sick society
Your're no different to me, yeah
Your're no different, no different to me
Look at yourself instead o' looking at me
With accusation in your eyes
Do you want me crucified for my profanity
Concealing your crimes behind a grandeur of lies
Tell me where do I begin
If you think you're without sin be the first to cast the stone
Your're no different to me, yeah
Your're no different, no different to me
Your're no different to me, yeah
Your're no different, no different to me
Can't you see, can't you see
Your're no different to me
Won't you see, won't you see
You're no different to me
Living my life in a way that I choose
You say I should apologize
Is that envy in your eyes reflecting jealousy
Tell me the truth and I'll admit to my guilt
If you'll try and understand
Is that blood that's on your hand from your democrocy
Your're no different to me, yeah
Your're no different, no different to me
Your're no different to me, yeah
Your're no different, no different to me
How many times can you put me down
'Till in your heart you realize
If you chose to criticise you choose your enemies
Everything that I say and do
In your eyes is always wrong
Tell me where do I belong in a sick society

Now You See It (Now You Don't)
Overbearing woman makin' it so hard for me
Now you've laid it down for all to see
Can I ask a question, d'ya think you can take a
Blow
This is why I always come and go.
Now you see it, now you don't
Careful of words that get caught in your throat
Face the music. Take it like a man
Givin' it to me anyway you can
Everybody's feeling everything you've got to
Feel
I've got something that you can conceal
Now you see it
Now you don't
Now you see it
Now you don't
Give me central heating hope that I can pay the
Bill
Makin me forget my fear of hell
Myst be luck in odd numbers now you face me
Upside down
I'm so far up I'm afraid to come back down
Now you've laid it down for all to see
Can I ask a question, d'ya think you can take a
Blow
This is why I always come and go.
Now you see it, now you don't
Careful of words that get caught in your throat
Face the music. Take it like a man
Givin' it to me anyway you can
Everybody's feeling everything you've got to
Feel
I've got something that you can conceal
Now you see it
Now you don't
Now you see it
Now you don't
Give me central heating hope that I can pay the
Bill
Makin me forget my fear of hell
Myst be luck in odd numbers now you face me

Rock N Roll Rebel
[Osbourne]
They couldn't see what I thought would be so obvious
They hide behind the laws they made for all of us
The ministry of truth that deals with pretense
The ministry of peace that sits on defense
I'm washing my hands of what they're trying to do
It's for me, it's for me, it's for you, it's for you
I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel
I'll tell you no lies
They say I worship the devil
They must be stupid or blind
I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel
They live a life of fear and insecurity
And all you do is pay for their prosperity
The ministry of fear that won't let you live
The ministry of grace that doesn't forgive
Do what you will to try and make me conform
I'll make you wish that you had never been born
Cause I'm a rock 'n' roll rebel
I'll do what I please
Yes I'm a rock 'n' roll rebel
And I'm as free as the breeze
I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel
They'll try playin' win your heart
They know it rules your head
If they could read between the lines
You know they'd see the real day
God only knows why they couldn't see the obvious
Is it because they manifest the incubus
The ministry of war that got caught in the draft
The ministry of joy that still hasn't laughed
When it's all boiled down and the day's at an end
I'll give you no bullshit and I'll never pretend
Cause I'm a rock 'n' roll rebel
I'll tell you no lies
They say I worship the devil
Why don't they open their eyes
I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel
A rock 'n' roll rebel
I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel
They couldn't see what I thought would be so obvious
They hide behind the laws they made for all of us
The ministry of truth that deals with pretense
The ministry of peace that sits on defense

It's for me, it's for me, it's for you, it's for you

Centre Of Eternity
[Osbourne]
There's no present, there's no future
I don't even know about the past
It's all timeless and neverending
And for me to think it's all too vast
It goes forever and ever
You thought you knew but you never
There goes tomorrow
Journey to the centre of eternity
Journey to the centre of eternity
The time is coming, but also going
And it's leaving never to return
It may be heaven, could be forever
But if it's hell then you can watch me burn
It goes forever and ever
You thought you knew but you never
There goes tomorrow
Journey to the centre of eternity
Journey to the centre of eternity
I've got to travel forever
It's all within my mind
An endless path to endeavor
Forever is a long, long time
There's no secrets and no corruption
In the centre of infinity
There's no limits to non-existence
And no begining to my destiny
It goes forever and ever
You thought you knew but you never
There goes tomorrow
Journey to the centre of eternity
Journey to the centre of eternity
Journey to the centre of eternity
Journey to the centre of eternity
There's no present, there's no future
I don't even know about the past
It's all timeless and neverending
And for me to think it's all too vast
It goes forever and ever
You thought you knew but you never
There goes tomorrow
Journey to the centre of eternity
Journey to the centre of eternity
The time is coming, but also going
And it's leaving never to return
It may be heaven, could be forever
But if it's hell then you can watch me burn
It goes forever and ever
You thought you knew but you never
There goes tomorrow
Journey to the centre of eternity
Journey to the centre of eternity
I've got to travel forever
It's all within my mind
An endless path to endeavor
Forever is a long, long time
There's no secrets and no corruption
In the centre of infinity
There's no limits to non-existence
And no begining to my destiny
It goes forever and ever
You thought you knew but you never
There goes tomorrow

Slow Down
I'll never bother keeping up with you
Burning the candle at both at both ends it's true
You know the writings on the wall why do you ride to take a fall
Slow down your moving way to fast
Slow down you know you'll never last
Slow down your haste is making waste
Slow down and join the human race
I tried to tell you time and time again
You know you'll have to pay the consequence
Now your obsessed with such a pace
But slow and steady wins the race
Slow down your moving way to fast
Slow down you know you'll never last
Slow down your haste is making waste
Slow down and join the human race
You seem to run around and round in vain
People are saying that you've gone insane
Tell me just what you're running from
One day you're here and the next you're gone
Slow down you're moving way to fast
Slow down you know you'll never last
Slow down your haste is making waste
Slow down and join the human race
Burning the candle at both at both ends it's true
You know the writings on the wall why do you ride to take a fall
Slow down your moving way to fast
Slow down you know you'll never last
Slow down your haste is making waste
Slow down and join the human race

Slow down your moving way to fast

Waiting For Darkness
[Osbourne]
Waiting for darkness
Why doesn't anybody see, now
Deafened by silence
Why doesn't anybody hear
I'm waiting for darkness
Playing with fire
But they're screaming when they're burned, yeah
Out of the sunlight
Hasn't anybody learned
I know what they'll find
It's in their mind
It's what they want to see
Spare me from the light
Here comes the night
And here I'll stay
Waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
Promise me rebirth
And then you tear me from the womb
Give me my freedom
And then you lock me in a tomb
I know what they'll find
It's in their mind
It's what they want to see
Spare me from the light
Here comes the night
And here I'll stay
Waiting for darkness
You gotta believe
You gotta believe it's true
I'm waiting for darkness
I just can't conceive
Why darkness is overdue
I'm waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
Who knows the answers
Is it friend or is it foe
Don't ask me questions
There are things you should not know
I know what you'll find
It's in your mind
It's what you want to see
Spare me from the light
Here comes the night
And here I'll stay
Waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
I'm waiting for darkness
Waiting for darkness
Why doesn't anybody see, now
Deafened by silence
Why doesn't anybody hear
I'm waiting for darkness
Playing with fire
But they're screaming when they're burned, yeah
Out of the sunlight
