I woke in the dark, called out in to the cold night A voice from outside drew me away from the light Follow me now and never return to your door I'll go the light nevermore, nevermore, nevermore ATCOTDark you will find ATCOTDark will remind you of someone who, once was you but madness is all you find He woke in fright, and found he was lost in the dark i drew him through the night, away from the call of the lark I followed you here and now can't return to my door I'll go to the dark evermore, evermore, evermore ATCOTDark you will find ATCOTDark will remind you of someone who was once just you but madness is all you'll find you'll wander through your mind You won't be coming back Nevermore, Nevermore, Never.

He rode from Almeria through the Andalusian sand He cast a shadow long and mean and bloody across the land If they tell you he’s a good man, don't believe em, cause he’s not He deserves what he’s got coming and let me tell you, it’s a lot But I can tell you time is just one thing he hasn’t got For all the efforts of the law he never faced the noose But if I saw him hanging well I’d cut the bastard loose There might have been a time or two he helped a man in need For a man with a guilty conscience has a funny brand of greed But i can tell you son he is a guilty man indeed And when i get him in my sight I’ll make that mother bleed Yeah I’ll put him in the ground I rode out to the desert oh to end what he’d begun I traced his bloody trail beneath the Andalusian Sun If you heard that he’s a good man don’t believe it cause he’s not He’ll get what he’s got coming and let me tell you its a lot And like I told you time is just one thing he hasn’t got I’m gonna paint the desert with a single fucking shot Yeah I’ll put him in the ground

The days are long and fill with pain i swore i’d never sin again i swore that i’d never kill again but i broke my vow again and again i drive all night, i drive all day i search for the ones who’ve been lead astray some men they just never find their way, but I swore i’d never Kill, Again The nights are long, longer than days but i never rest, my eyes never stray The ones who choose to come my way please pray for them cause i don’t pray and tell them to run, run far away cause i’ll never stop till they lie in their grave it always seems to end this way I swore i’d never Kill I swore that i’d never Kill, Again The Road is long, it goes for days but i never bend, and i never stray somehow i knew i’d wind up this way: a man who is bound to Kill. So i raise a glass to dull the pain and swear that i’ll never sin again i raise my glass, again and again and swear that i’ll never Kill I swore i’d never Kill I swear that i’ll never Kill, Again.

I've lived all my life as a wanted man I've been chased through the good and the badlands And I've left quite a trail of bones in the ground And i'm tired of the Law pushing me around But I ain't gonna run, no i ain't gonna run anymore. I ain't gonna run, I'm not tired i'm just done I ain't gonna run, anymore I'm hated by every good and every bad man Cause everywhere i've been there's blood on my hands Every thug and every cop and every rich man in this state has a price on my head, and the hours getting late But I ain't gonna run, no i ain't gonna run anymore. Someone out there's keeping count And I owe a fair amount But I ain't gonna run, gonna run anymore But I ain't gonna run, no i ain't gonna run anymore. Yeah dead I'm worth some bucks but i'm getting low on give-a-fucks And I ain't gonna run, gonna run anymore

The sky grew dark though bright the day the sun turned red and blue turned grey and as night fell the sky turned red blankets of ash on a dry riverbed The fire came down from the mountain the sea ran over the shore and washed away the wicked ways of those who had come before the time had come to pay the price for all our sin for all our vice long we knew this day would come and when it did we came undone and though the cross was ours to bear the burden was for all to share The fire came down from the mountain the river ran dry in its bed the oceans rose and lord only knows if we’d ever, see light again the time had come to settle debts and the devil, well he — never forgets and so it came to be this way the sky is red and the land is grey but i remember this world well the green of grass before this hell The sky came down from the mountain the rivers ran over their shore and swept away the wicked ways of those who had come before the time had come to pay the price for all our sin for all our vice

We came, we saw, we conquered, we fell apart We thrived, we survived and we faltered, but we pushed on Empires fall. We came undone. The war is never won. So we crumbled and we staggered. We slaughtered their sons and their daughters. And all for what? The buildings all crumble. Ambitions all rubble. We fell apart. The future is never clear. The end is always near. The future is never clear. And now the mighty have fallen. Their Gods all forgotten. But their statues remain. And all of those masses There’s nothing but ashes For all of this passes We Fall Apart.

about

Federale is a seven-piece ensemble based in Portland, OR. Spearheaded by longtime Brian Jonestown Massacre bassist Collin Hegna, the band was conceived as an outlet to channel inspiration from 60’s & 70’s European soundtracks, particularly those from Italy made famous by the Spaghetti Western & Giallo genres. Their fourth album, “All The Colours Of The Dark” finds Federale entering new territory. Though the new record contains cinematic instrumentals that the band is known for, it also sees Federale expanding its vision to narrative songs in the baritone driven style of heroes Lee Hazelwood, Scott Walker & Nick Cave. Murder, revenge, regret, power and corruption are the lyrical themes of this collection.
