Rain on me
Hear me roar
Set me free
Evil Sky!
Set me free
Give me love
Make me bleed
Evil Sky!
Help me breathe
Give me love
Let me see woman!

Hold On

Never thought I’d ask you
Never thought I’d be this way
All the weight is on my shoulder
The only thing I feel is pain
Hold On
Even though we might be parting
Let’s have a toast to what remains
We’ll raise a glass to the heartless
We’ll raise a glass to our fate
Hold On
Let’s not give up on our love
We’ve gotta find another way
It’s you and me against the world
This is why I gotta have you stay
Hold On

Love?
Are you really there?
In my beating heart?
In a dream I see your face
And my feelings are stone
But tonight
I won’t be broken
Tonight I am free
Love.
I don’t blame your heart
For my sins
In a dream I saw you’re there
And we’re still loving
In my mind you’re there
And I feel no shame
But tonight
I won’t be broken
Tonight you’ll all see
Tonight my wings are spreading
Tonight I am free
And it’s bombs
On the only thing I had
And I won’t be turned away
I won’t be left for dead
In my dreams you’re not there
And my feet aren’t stone
Tonight I am free

I remember when
When I saw red
It was something I’ve never seen before
I was nothing
No road to follow
But there you were
My Venus In Gold
I’ll wait
I remember when
When you cut your hair
I was blushing baby
Blushing at you with
No mother in your head
Now I know I was nothing
I know I wasn’t there
And you wanted something
Someone to stay
I’ll wait
I remember when
I remember when
I first laid eyes on you
There you were
My Venus In Gold

Mama says
“Let the children speak
It’s time the women rise”
Father says
That the women are weak
Mama cuts out his fucking eyes
People say
That you gotta be sleek
If you wanna catch the worm
Venus says
Let the women speak
A loud independent word!
But listen to me babe
You can’t let those cocksuckers
Bring you down
You gotta rise up
Stand up
Or you’ll end up like me
With the Cocksucker Blues

I am an Off Brand Product
I will never feel the same
We break heart with shit luck
Our willingness is our fame
But what if I don’t want to be you no more
What if I got something to say
What if I broke free from this fucked up world
What if I made that day today
I’m an Off Brand Product
I will never be the same
Looking down with sorrow
Filling isles with our shame
But what if I don’t want to be you no more
What if I got something to say
What if I broke free from this fucked up world
What if I made that day today
I am an Off Brand Product
I will never feel the same
We break heart with shit luck
Our willingness is our fame
And when we dip our toes into the outer world
I get met with so much hate
Maybe I just wanna be myself
Maybe I make that day today
But what if I don’t want to be you no more
Maybe I got something to say
Maybe I broke free from this fucked up world
Maybe I make that day today

Don’t look mama
They have all their guns
Pointed at me
They’re going to hang me up
So my feet don’t touch the
ground no more
They say I’m a dead man
I got nowhere to go but in the ground
So we have one last dance you and I
Let’s make it last until the sun goes down
Sheriff walks in
Says “boy, you’re finally going to pay
for your sins”
I’m gonna string you up, or fire
This six shooter right in
your fucking head
Because you’re a Dead Man
You have nowhere to go
But in the ground
So how about one last kiss mama?
Make it a big one baby
The sun is finally going down on me
I’m Going Home
Well, you can take my blood
But you’ll never
Take the man out of me!
They say I'm a Dead Man
But you'll never take the man out of me!

Black Venus Nashville, Tennessee
Found through chance,
forged in revenge,
We seek redemption,
together at opposite
ends.
Loud with intent,
a pounding thunder.
Screaming love’s name,
with passion and somber.
Find us a place,
locked in your heart.
Or find us a genre,
that’s dark, warm and blunt.
We promise we’ll give you,
that which lies in our soul.
While presenting our demons,
in the purest of odes.
Forever we are: BlackVenus
