Help on the Way / Slipknot! / Franklin’s Tower (Live at Marin County Veterans Auditorium, San Rafael, CA, April 1, 1984)
[Help on the Way]
[Verse 1]
Paradise waits
On the crest of a wave, her angels in flames
She has no pain
Like a child she's pure, she is not to blame
Wings spread bright, take that flight
Spring from night into the sun
Don't stop to run
She can fly like a lie, she can't be outdone
Tell me the cost
I would pay, let me go, tell me love is not lost
Sell everything
Without love day to day insanity's king
I will pay, day by day
Anyway, lock, bolt and key
Crippled but free
I was blind all the time, I was learning to see
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Help on the way
Well, I know only this, I'vе got you today
Don't fly away
'Cause I love what I love and I want it that way
I will stay onе more day
Anyway, honey, it's you
Making it too
Without love in a dream, it'll never come true
[Instrumental]

[Franklin's Tower]
[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
In another time's forgotten space
Your eyes looked through your mother's face
Wildflower seeds in the sand and wind
May the four winds blow you home again
[Chorus]
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
I'll tell you where the four winds dwell
In Franklin's tower there hangs a bell
It can ring, turn night to day
Can ring like fire if you lose your way
[Chorus]
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
[Verse 3]
God save the child who rings that bell
Might have one good ring, baby, you can't tell
One watch by night, one watch by day
If you get confused, listen to the music play
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Some come to laugh their past away
Some come to make it just one more day
Whichever way your pleasure tends
If you plant ice, you're gonna harvest wind
[Chorus]
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 5]
I'll tell you where the four winds sleep
Like four lean hounds the lighthouse keep
Wildflower seed in the sand and stone
May the four winds blow you safely home
[Outro]
Roll away the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
(Roll) Roll away (Roll away) the dew
(You better) Roll away (Roll away) the dew
(You better) Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
(You'd better) Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
(You'd better) Roll away (Roll away) the dew
(You'd better) Roll away the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
Roll away (Roll away) the dew
[Instrumental]
