As we speak now/ Mama you seemed withered/ Your breath feels like winter/ I'll be/ Lungs on your deathbed/ The window to the left/ The dawn of the day when the sun has overslept/ If helpless/ Stay helpless/ The empty room to which I was cast/ Blank fans that have seen every act/ If helpless/ Stay helpless Were you waiting on some prophet?/ If helpless/ Stay helpless/ We're worthless/ We're worthless/ Sleep with the stories/ But don't read the pages you'll soon abort/ We're so goddamned honest/ Losing all your credit?/ Take it out on debit/ Skin 'em on the road/ Show 'em you mean business/ Losing all your credit?/ Well don't you let 'em see it/ Skin 'em on the road/ Friend you better show 'em you mean business/ Give me another weekend/ Lord free up my soul/ Give me another weekend/ For me to extol/ Give me another weekend/ Lord free up my soul/ Give me another weekend/ For me to extol/ They gave me nothing/ And I took it all/ Oh keep your tongue/ Pressed up against the sugars of/ Familiar sins bottomless cup/ I've got nothing but drinks to fill/ All the empties that are soon to come/ I'm impressed the sweetness son/ We'll have no room left but to give this up/ I never want to give this up/ I never wanted to go/ Give me another weekend/ Lord free up my soul/ Give me another weekend/ For me to extol/ Give me another weekend/ Lord free up my soul/ And with it/ It comes the weekend/ I let hell in the door/ Open the door/

The Swinger 00:58
Holy pennants of the aftermath/ Tongue and cheek for the other half/ Lest we not check out/ If the heavens have the heathens backs/ Well Hell's hands say I'm immune/ A molecular pest without virtue/ Pull the rug from my feet/ Pull the rug from my feet/ Tie the rope for me/ Tie the rope/

Cast into the incoherence of a public coffin/ We're set to communal movements/ The jockey for position's constant/ We're stealing fame/ We're keeping pace/ Rational/ Impractical/ One gurney ride away from a hopeful/ Resurrection/ New complexions/ Back turning mother fuckers/ Primed and read to blow your cover/ We have a situation here/ Conventional means ain't the way to go/ We have a situation here/ Put your dress on/ Let me take you home/ The hum of the interstates progress/ Let me drive/ You rest your eyes/ Responsible I'm not for these events/ Headlights stay dim/ The stereo stays turned down/ I don't want you waking up/ When the engine revs and my ego steps out/ Saving yourself for a dance?/ Well allow me/ Allow me/ To ruin your plans/ For you I wouldn't lose my spot at the bar/ I would deny you as my cast/ If it meant you in my arms/ Over you I wouldn't lose my spot at the bar/ If you don't mind/ Gung-Ho for more awards/ Ceremonious displays/ We're participation medals in some false event/ All we are is the drawing board/ Measured by the hourly wage/ Of some scientist/ Of some scientist/ And just as fast as we blinked/ We mistakenly mistook all our mistakes/ For beliefs/ And we stand beside them/ For all damnation/ Like they were our fucking children/ Post mark your infants/ Send them back to heaven/ We're no better here than they are there/ They're no better there than we are here/ Just mind your own/ Complete the fire drill/

Fashioned and ready/ Contaminated as it gets/ The filth it comes with age/ When you start believing in yourself/ Faith shows no pity/ To the mutes that still adhere/ To the bastard sons in freedom/ Or the bitch that birthed their fear/ She has nothing/ She has nothing/ She has nothing/ Nothing for you here/ Now we grieve/ In the same key/ We grieve/ In the same key/ The sake of the cause gets harder/ As the laws of the land get smaller/ I will drink to no man/ But I'll bow to every drink/ The paranoia is constant/ As the walls are plastered impostors/ I swear to God/ There are eyes on everything/ The sake of the cause gets harder/ As the laws of the land get smaller/ We bow to man/ But yet worship empty skies of myth?/ Portray the victim/ Blame the willing/ Hang the Mrs./ Starve the filling/ Oh my stars/ Oh my bars/ Remember those southern aborted mornings?/ We were the gods/ We were/ You expect us to believe we've been overthrown?/ We were the gods/ We were/ We've got a million spinal fragments/ To compare to the one that they've lost/ Case and point/ I am void/ Case and point/ I am void/ I am void/ I am void/ As we are void/ We are screaming/ Cut the bullshit/ Lackluster at best/ Where is your vest?/ We're bulletproof in the eyes of no man/ They are choosing who exists/ The sake of the cause gets harder/ As the laws of the land get smaller/ I will drink to no man/ But I'll bow to every drink/

Come forth the distraught business that you'll dress down for/ Come forth the porcelain doll you'll exchange your wife for/ So loud in the closet of romance/ When daylight blooms you become impassive/ While breathing down the neck of the devil/ And harping on the existence of heaven/ You thought it twice/ About eternal life/ But when the question arose/ He up and left us/ But you thought it twice/ About eternal life/ But when the question arose/ He up and left us/ Just keep attaching to saints/ For a coat tail ride that won't soon end/ I'll be pushing sleep away/ At the countless thoughts of dead best friends/ It's bothersome just feeling numb/ To society and her mood/ The choir sung while the priests all hung/ In the confession booth/ Nowhere is somewhere/ If nowhere's where you wanna be/ Nowhere is somewhere/ If nowhere's where you wanna be/ Keep photographs to link the past with the lonely notion that you had/ That nowhere is somewhere/ If nowhere's where you wanna be/ I'll keep them coming for myself/ Pour one more for myself/ And i'll close my eyes/ One last time/ By myself/ I'm nailed up to a cross/ There's a dozen crows that watch/ These frequent dreams/ Oh they need a miracle to stop/ I'm nailed up to a cross/ And I'm forced to be a cop/ These unrelenting dreams/ They need miracles to stop/

Good Urn 04:29
We drank through our trials/ Tribulations poured us shots/ A pawn upon the bar stool/ A king by a couple of blocks/ Goddamn/ We walked into your red hearts/ We crawled into your keepers bed/ Sound asleep by your captains ship/ When your queen handed over her head/ We walked into your dead hearts/ Oh how you craved the company/ We're cancer in the form of conversation/ You panicked begging us to leave/ You were begging/ Oh you were begging/ Do just as your told/ Go and rest your bones/ Find reverence in all severance/ A clean slate/ And when you get a quick second/ Give a heavenly thanks/ Give praise/ Give praise/ We'll fit the mold/ When dust turns to gold/ And we're positively the mutts of this town/ We'll fit the mold When dust turns to gold/ And we're positively the bastards of this town/ We walked into your black hearts/ We're responsible for it's last beat/ Dreaming away at the rivers base/ When the water found you in the backseat/ Everybody thought it/ Nobody said it/ Keep your head low the levy was your throat/ The celebration started when it broke/ I'm just a sinner folks/ Pinned in the centerfold/ I'm just a sinner folks/ Pinned in the centerfold/ Come feast your eyes/ Comes feast your eyes/ I'm just a sinner folks/ Pinned in the centerfold/ I'm just a sinner folks/ Pinned in the centerfold/ Come feast your eyes/ Come feast your eyes/ (Waste away for days and days I twist myself in fucking knots) Someone play me off/ Someone kill the lights/ Someone pull the curtain closed/ Someone call it a night/
