• Don't Let Him Slip Away (1982, Unreleased)

You should have seen it
How they tore them down
Lined him up against the wall
And they shot his body down
You would not believe it
There were tears in his eye
His heart was broken
They would not listen
All was well
He is gone now
You should have seen it
There was nothing there
Just an empty shell
I would not believe that
This would pass
He is gone now
Alas
He is gone now
Alas
He is gone now
Alas

And like the soldier he is born to fight
He see the wisdom of the ways of night
He knows he has to seek another word
For the brave are the lovers of the ones he heard
He'll let the Angel
Into the night
His heart is broken
He knows he fights
He sensed the ways of a monster
Walking through another fire
He looks and listens
You see him now
Silver tongued and knows it now
And the words of wisdom
He knows them well
He calls it all a cause to rebel
And like the demon that knows us all
He fights the fight
He fights to fall
And though he knows he goes
He held his hand in the fire

Don't let him slip away
Don't let him slip away
There is a demon in his eye
And he know that he has to, ya, oh ya
Don't let him slip away
Don't let it slip away

Like a heart and a soul in the dungeons
He knows to drive away
'N like a demon he knows he lives within the fire
'N like a demon he knows he lives within the fire

They wouldn't listen
You should have seen it
How they tore him down
He was a bright spirit
Burned down
They would not listen
Just to see it pass
You would not believe it
Oh no, alas
I wish I'd seen them
And told them now
I get so broke up
I get so broke up

They would not listen
To a word he said
And now he plays the blues ... into the fire
Like a demon he's into the fire
But what we tell him
Lost his way
He's told them. He's broken
He's captured. He knows it
He sees it's all in vain

He's a champion
She's at the wheel
And like the King in the story
Ends up getting the boy, I feel
The killer's on the side street
There was not a drop of glee
Now's a killer on the highway
And I think I'm insane
They say there is no reason
To swallow tears
She jumps out the back door
Says "Oh my God it's him"
He calls to the innocent
Have mercy, mercy on me
Then the guilty come in
And let him free

He rises to the ocassion
I got it. I got right
A transvestite
Space
I should try to warn him
It's an institution out there
Society is broke down
Nobody cares
They do not listen

To fools like us
In God and Country
They trust that

Like the freedom fighters of old
They are broken
Like the wicked wanted
Left spoken
Like the houses after the war
They are broken
Crazy. Crazy. This from you

The wicked are wanted
The hungry are daunted
Children are flaunted
And I go undaunted
