Day by Day
04:57
|

Sun rise, sun set
Woke up this morning when I thought I was dead
Day in, day out
For some reason I'm still around
Growing horns, growing fangs
When did I ever get this fucking callous
I'm just getting older
But non the wiser

Hate & Fear
03:18
|

What gets you up in the morning
What keeps you awake late at night
What makes your blood flow
What fuels your endless lust?
Hate & fear
What makes the world go around
What makes the sun rise
What keeps the gears in motion
What keeps the fires alight?
Hate & fear
How do you sleep at night
How can you shut off your mind
How do you turn a blind eye
At the burning world all around you?
Hate & Fear

Bury Me
04:10
|

When I die bury me
Under a tall pine tree
In a shallow grave
In the cold soft soil
When I die bury me
In the bottom of the sea
Underneath the waves
In the briny deep
When I die bury me
On the lone prairie
Where the wind blows free
Where there ain't a soul to care for me
And don't you mourn for me
Don't you shed to tears
For the world keeps on turning
Even after I'm gone

Skeleton
05:45
|
|||
I woke up one morning feeling bones scratch my flesh
The skeleton inside me wants me dead
I do not sleep, nor do I eat, I'm too afraid of what lurks beneath
The skeleton inside me wants me dead
I'm but a suit of skin worn by a creature of another kin
The skeleton inside me wants me dead

Rattlin'
04:11
|
|||
Once in our day I'll be gone
I'll be dead in the ground
But speak my name out loud
and I will be rattling my bones
I swear I'll be back once more
The night's long and it's cold
and it's dark outside
Hold me, I'll hold you
Until the sun is up
I swear I'll be back once more
Let it rain, let it pour
let us drown in the streets
come hell, come high water
let the tides roll in
I swear I'll be back once more
Throw the bones, roll the dice
put a curse on me
I'll suffer, I'll pay
But I'm much stronger than that
I swear I'll be back once more
I'll be rattlin' my bones

Little Black Heart
03:15
|
|||
A punctured lung don't breath
It just wheezes and bleeds
But the little black heart still beats
Tied tongue don't speak
Can't utter no lies
Done sealed your demise
But the little black heart still beats
Bloodied hands don't grip
Can't wield an ax
How you gonna chop?
But the little black heart still beats
Soiled souls don't sing
Can't join the choir
In hell we'll scream
But the little black heart still beats
Can't stop the beat
Ain't no redemption for the sinner
No one to pardon us
Heaven don't forgive
and hell don't forget
But the little black heart still beats

Man-made Hell
05:13
|

Paint me silver, paint me gold
Paint me the color of florescent light
Replace the stars with dim light bulbs
Cut apart the night with your neon sun
Step inside this man-made hell
Sell us salvation packed in a tin
Sell us a savior wrapped in a golden cloth
Shackle us to the aether, wrap us up in wires
We'll fuel our apathy now through the socket in the wall
Step inside this man-made hell
Wrap us in radiation, in the electric hum
I can feel my flesh burning from inside out
Poison the waters, radiate the air
Treat the things you've lost like they were never there
Step inside this man-made hell
Now hear the pistons firing, pumping out our blood
Our hearts a beating to the rhythm of our machines
Plug me in now, then shut me down
Let my soul flow in the electric wires
Step inside this man-made hell
Step inside
Step inside
Step inside our handmade hell
Come right in
Come right in
Come right in, we are all already here

Plasticasket

Let me ask you a question deep from my heart
Curiosity is eating me, tearing me apart
Tell me what is sickness when you've never been fine
What is sunlight when you live in the shade
Oh I can hear the call of nature and wild
Fluorescent lights don't go well with my scars
I'm howling with the mutes for a plastic savior
Blinded by the glow of neon lights
Cancer ridden walking corpses
failed to find a way to an earlier grave
A plastic casket is what I need
To preserve my greed and gluttony
Instead of taking why don't you try giving
hoarding disorder the modern plague
Find it in your soul you didn't deserve a thing
this world doesn't owe you, it's you who's in dept
A part of the circle, a link in the chain
Out of this world buried into the ground

Ain't no nice way to say this
So might as well speak softly
No question about it
No way around it
We're all doomed
The enemy's among us
Hiding in our ranks
From amidst our comfort
a new threat now arises
We're all doomed
As we make up our minds
We seem to close our eyes
Put up our walls
Lock the world outside
We're all doomed
We'll have lies for sustenance
For they're easier to swallow
All the while the bitter truth
is drowning in the flood
We're all doomed
