Black Lodge Lyrics
Worship your ground you're barely walk on
You give of yourself but your angels are gone
Deny your body is screaming
But your heart and your soul they're bleeding
Just fall asleep is a godsend
until your demons appear again
I am a witness to your demise
Your biggest secret is one you can't keep
Lift up your head if you're only asleep
You try to hold onto reason
Why can't you see that you're leaving
My love for you knows no distance
But it can't fight your resistance
I am a witness to your demise
I am the one who saw through the lies
Give me
The one thing you can't give
Take me to
The black lodge where you live
Give me
The one thing you can't give
Take me to
The black lodge where you live
Deny your body is screaming
But your heart and your soul they're bleeding
Just fall asleep is a godsend
Until your demons appear again
I am a witness to your demise
I am the one who saw through the lies
My love has always been blind
Give me
The one thing you can't give
Take me to
The black lodge where you live
Give me
The only thing you can't give
Take me to
The black lodge where you live
Where you live
You give of yourself but your angels are gone
Deny your body is screaming
But your heart and your soul they're bleeding
Just fall asleep is a godsend
until your demons appear again
I am a witness to your demise
Your biggest secret is one you can't keep
Lift up your head if you're only asleep
You try to hold onto reason
Why can't you see that you're leaving
My love for you knows no distance
But it can't fight your resistance
I am a witness to your demise
I am the one who saw through the lies
Give me
The one thing you can't give
Take me to
The black lodge where you live
Give me
The one thing you can't give
Take me to
The black lodge where you live
Deny your body is screaming
But your heart and your soul they're bleeding
Just fall asleep is a godsend
Until your demons appear again
I am a witness to your demise
I am the one who saw through the lies
My love has always been blind
Give me
The one thing you can't give
Take me to
The black lodge where you live
Give me
The only thing you can't give
Take me to
The black lodge where you live
Where you live

i love this song! especially the dark atmosphere..anyway, i think the song is about how we sometimes have secrets that even the person we love most cannot understand due to personal issues such as depression. It can also be how people resist love in fear of being hurt, like they've been before.
This song sounds to me like it is about a loved one who is getting deeper and deeper into hard drug addiction. "deny your body is screaming" points to heroin because a side effect of heroin addiction is chronic pain that can be described as "your body screaming".
one of the only songs I like with john bush this is a bads ass song
This song was inspired by Twin Peaks, although the band claim(s/ed) it was only the music and not the lyrics, which is unusual.
perfectly written song.... def one of the best from the bush-era
At first, I thought the song was another Anthrax song about the dangers of drug use, but the music video paints a deeper picture. It seems the song is about a girl who was sexually abused as a child, and then lived a life of violent prostitution, drug use, and loneliness.
I think this song is about a love that was lost because the woman couldn't be honest and can't give him the truth. The lyrics go back and forward between them two. "Give me the only thing you can't give" is the truth. "Take to black lodge where you live" is where all the lies are. The first part part of the song until " I am a witness to your demise " he's talking about him. "I'm am a witness to your demise" is when he finally caught up with all her lies. "Lift up your head if you're only asllep" is for the lack of response from her when she got caught and got shit to say. And he still are willing to hear anything from her. And he only wants what she can't give:the fucking truth.
