Light a candle but keep it a secret Forever watching to keep us close at hand Text a bible give us our daily bread Lack our interest of knowledge we may have Chorus: Care for a rat in the face? You’ll see it my way, my way, my Dog dyslectic foreign traits the same Can’t economize the risks we take Atmospheric death by fuels we trade While burning dollars on violent games we play Techno heartbeat but bugles sound the same No time for taps or gunshots in my space Save us all with activism’s plans But writing on our walls content as slaves Chorus

Not sorry I’m not more like you Cause being crazy is just what I do A well adjusted wreck of a man I wouldn’t expect you to understand Chorus: This one last time Then I swear I’m done This one last time I put myself under the gun I may be a sinner but you’re no saint And now I see they’re one and the same They police and love to condescend Commit the crime then do it again Chorus I see you watching and itching to speak It’s like a game or a weekend retreat And you can laugh and criticize But in the end that won’t be wise So light it up and tell another joke I’ve seen too many years go up in smoke The hacks and talkers form an endless line So take precaution heed the warning signs Chorus Under the Gun

Every day is a dime But we’re burning dollars Like to tell you we know where it goes But we don’t As we struggle to find The meaning of that song We all know Like a broken record playing On and on and on Chorus: Broke another dam and washed away Ten years of hell a hard price to pay Strangled by the vines that grow with age Did I learn to late? What you hope to find Do you even know? If it led you by the hand Would you go? Down that path of gold Like a broken record playing Over and over again Chorus Next to never is where you’ll find the luck that never comes Falling through the cracks of a dying womb A blackened heart of the bastard son without a will to choose Whatever the cost take the risk and follow through Knot of time is the social dust of an ancient ruin Climbing out of a robot’s thoughtless tomb The beaten one of a machine shop without a will to choose Talking heads on the hands of a dead man’s news Chorus

Lifeblood 05:33
Naked in front of you unable to pretend It’s time you found out just exactly who I am A disillusioned waste of everybody’s time A growing bitter taste behind the valentine Chorus: Life blood Running empty for some Life blood Run unlucky for some I put the blame on you but never on myself And every tongue is twisting, tearing through my health The walking ashes emerge from this weathered flame It should have been a thing I killed but tried to save Chorus Sick beyond repair Despair in my underwear 78769

Worm Hill 05:52
Streets lean and cold in the town of Sunderland Something is waiting outside An abject object perhaps a biogenesis Penshaw’s eyes open wide Chorus: Worm Hill imprint the mind With time to wonder why Creep down the stairs in the dark of abstinence Someone is waiting online A welcome permit perhaps a pledge of innocence A sacrificial suicide Chorus Worm Hill the perfect home Your place to die alone Chorus

That silent lantern Lights the path unknown Outside my window I see them down below That silent lantern Lights the way back home Outside my window I see them come and go Am I lost too far Where it’s all a lie I’ll never long to care Till the day I die The day I die
