Danzig- Ashes

This song is about the keeper of souls. Bad souls, Satan, he's keeping them safe from summer, from the light, and he will call them forth in winter, in the time of darkness and coldness.

And the burning of the embers
Slowly down inside
I will keep you warm this darkness
As the ashes die

I will call your soul in winter
I will keep you mine
I will call you soul and winter
As the ashes die

I will keep you broke and splintered
I will keep you tight
I will keep you cold and dark
Till the end of time

And the soul is slowly seeping
As the years go by
Will you keep me cold and darkened
Till the end of time

I will keep you safe from summer
I will be entwined
I will keep you cold and darkened
Till the end of time

I will kiss your burning embers
I will watch them die
I will catch your soul escaping
As the ashes fly

I will keep you safe from summer
I will be entwined
I will keep you cold and darkened
Till the end of time

@Billinois78 BlackAcidDevil was Danzigs best Album. The reason why it was so heavily criticized was because there wasn't any Blues in it. Apparently this made him lose Popularity with BB King Fans that were hoping Danzig Five would be nothing but Elvis and Roy Orbison covers. People who bash BlackAcidDevil need to stop listening to Danzig. Go listen to Kid Rock or ICP if you want every Album to sound the same you fucking pussies!

@DanielDamascusKimery i couldn't agree with you more

I absolutely love this song. Danzig is a true progressive musician. Hope he lives to be 100 so I can enjoy his music for the rest of my life!! \,,/

I agree that this is one of his best. Many a black night was spent playing DOOM with this dark gem blasting.

@DanielDamascusKimery Yeah. You know, I don't think there has ever been a band/musician who has not, at times, 'disappointed' some people with some change. It will happen. If it doesn't happen, then they're not an artist, but a 'product'. If people buy a product, then they are to expect something in particular every time they buy it. That's not how any artform is supposed to be.

@scrymusic Agreed. Real Danzig Fans like 5-9 better than 1-4. Danzig gets better with every Album. Industrial Music kicks the shit out of the Blues.

[Billinois78]

@scrymusic Agreed. I mean, people were already pissy after he left Misfits, and then Samhain, and formed Danzig, stepping away from just punk and incorporating metal into it. The punk purists didn't like that either.

Anyway, if people are still pissing and moaning about this album, nearly 15 years after its release, then that's pretty pathetic on their part.
