Death March
08:55
|
|||
I'm living a death march
A death march
Walking straight into the end
I'm living a death March
A death march
Little left to defend
I'm living a death march
A death march
Walking straight into the end
I'm living a death March
A death march
Little left to defend
Got a target on my back
And a needle in my eye
A red menace bleeding me
Straight til I'm dry
Hanging by the ropes
To hell they'll send
Walking these streets alone
We all know how this'll end
Im living a death march
A death march
Walking straight into the end
I'm living a death March
A death march
Little left to defend
Im living a death march
A death march
Walking straight into the end
I'm living a death March
A death march
Little left to defend
Decided to show my colors
Spit them loud
I'm fighting for the others
I'll scream and shout
They'll hurl their insults
And cock their rifles
And pin all the faults
Wearing their tattooed idols
Im living a death march
A death march
Walking straight into the end
I'm living a death March
A death march
Little left to defend
Im living a death march
A death march
Walking straight into the end
I'm living a death March
A death march
Little left to defend
I'll go away and never be found
It'll happen in due time
Call me the Rose of this town
End me in a bullet and dump me out in Rhine
I'm living this DEATH MARCH!
Im living a death march
A death march
Walking straight into the end
I'm living a death March
A death march
Little left to defend

Smash This Machine

Hang em with the rope you selling em
Hit the em with the money you giving em
Hang em with the rope you selling em
And curb stomp the snake while you got em
Smash this machine!
Smash this machine!
I find myself at a crossroads
To wage a war against em
Or hit em at the show boats
They won't kill themselves
The contradictions stacking so high
Yet they squirm away
Why won't you fucking die
Why are you still alive?
Hang em with the rope you selling em
Hit the em with the money you giving em
Hang em with the rope you selling em
And curb stomp the snake while you got em
Smash this machine!
Smash this machine!
Don't wanna pick up my rifle
But the kids gotta eat
And you ain't going to help, just stifle
Who is going to feed us when robots got us beat?
Gimme a reason not to end you!
Gimme a move to sleep tonight
And if I die giving you your due
I'll be one of the lucky few!
Hang em with the rope you selling em
Hit the em with the money you giving em
Hang em with the rope you selling em
And curb stomp the snake while you got em
Smash this machine!
Smash this machine!
I'll hang you with the rope!
Your dollar bills and dope!
Smash the machine!
Smash the machine!
A bullet through your head ain't gonna cut it!
Bitch!
Hang em with the rope you selling em
Hit the em with the money you giving em
Hang em with the rope you selling em
And curb stomp the snake while you got em
Smash this machine!
Smash this machine!

Arctic Bliss
10:02
|
|||
They stared into my eyes
with tears flowing from the gaps
naming all the reasons they despise
but not a single word from their flaps
hit my ears and passed my head
like a pirate staring at maps
searching for a treasure
by diving in the ice caps
it feels warm at the bottom of this arctic
a blanket of the cold warms my skin
it feels warm at the bottom of this arctic
as it's the only warmth i wish to know
it feels warm at the bottom of this arctic
my skin all but burns in the light
the cold is all i wanna know
drowned and frozen, preserved and young
swimming up to the surface
a pain in my chest
explosive to the baroness
bursting out the sides of my lung vest
my ears begin to ring
my heart beginning to sink
the stars beginning their shining
life beginning to end in a single blink
it felt warm at the bottom of this arctic
a blanket of the cold warmed my skin
it felt warm at the bottom of this arctic
as it's the only warmth i wish to know
it felt warm at the bottom of this arctic
my skin all but burned in the light
the cold is all i wanna know
drowned and frozen, preserved and young
Starting to swim back down
letting my lungs fill with water
the warmth gives way to the cold
going back the treasure, the drown
another body, just arctic fodder
forever young, to never grow old
buried in a frozen grave
too far deep for a close call save
it feels warm at the bottom of this arctic
a blanket of the cold warms my skin
it feels warm at the bottom of this arctic
as it's the only warmth i wish to know
it feels warm at the bottom of this arctic
my skin all but burns in the light
the cold is all i wanna know
drowned and frozen, preserved and young

The Flux of Time

The means of happiness
They depart from me
Decrypt this varied mess
The greatest mystery
Day in and day out
Questions arise
Long conversations about
The parts of me to despise
They offer a solace
A moment of clarity
It won't fix it, they promise
But it'll stop the severity
Days go on,
nights are longer
Ending the con
Feeling a bit stronger
Don't mind if I do
Don't mind if I don't
If I give in,
I'll disappear
If I stand firm,
You won't see me here!
damned if I do
Damned if I don't
If I give in,
I'll disappear
If I stand firm,
You won't see me here!
The long night turns to a bright day
Blinding and burning one might say
Cocky and bright, come what may
The waves of trial, they drown me,
The bodies at the bottom of the bay.
The waves begin to tower
The Overwhelming power
The sun has turned sour
The brightest lights, situation dour
The overwhelming crumbling city
My babylonian tower
Don't mind if I do
Don't mind if I don't
If I give in,
I'll disappear
If I stand firm,
You won't see me here!
damned if I do
Damned if I don't
If I give in,
I'll disappear
If I stand firm,
You won't see me here!
I begin to turn, My tower, I shall let it fall
To ruins and rubble, I will let it burn
As it turns to ash and dirt
My heart for the tower, it'll yearn
And never learn of the moments,
the brightest of days
In the middle of the night
And I sleep, even my dreams are fleeting
Burying me beneath a sea of the dusk and dawn meeting
The sun extinguished
The moon has taken the mantle
The clocks lie to me
It's too much for me to handle
Don't mind if I do
Don't mind if I don't
If I give in,
I'll disappear
If I stand firm,
You won't see me here!
damned if I do
Damned if I don't
If I give in,
I'll disappear
If I stand firm,
You won't see me here!
Shall I build back my tower
And Rebuild the sun
Climb every floor
In the light I burn
Shall I dig myself a hole
Pray the sea washes me clean
Drowning in it's hold
Under the moon's eyebeam?
Shall i stare into the abyss?
Or blinded by the light?
Transparent pale skin
Or boiling crippling might
Submarine burial
Astral suffocation?
Don't mind if I do
Don't mind if I don't
If I give in,
I'll disappear
If I stand firm,
You won't see me here!
damned if I do
Damned if I don't
If I give in,
I'll disappear
If I stand firm,
You won't see me here!

Smoky Mountain Rain
06:16
|

Oh that Smoky mountain rain
feel that old smoky mountain rain
ohhh that old mountain rain
feel that smoky wind again
oh the wind and hail!
the mournings they pour the fog again
like the poor that lost their heads
like the children, women and men
the rooster stopped crying it's merely a scream
and a chorus followed the rest it seems
the rooster seems to grow silent as the voices rise
now it's a spirited sea of the ghosts of the decayed flies
the children grow hungry as they are ignored
to make room for the visitor, simply bored
Oh That smoky mountain rain
feel that old smoky mountain rain
ohhh that old mountain rain
feel that smoky wind again
oh the wind and hail!
the homes dwindle as the cabins rise
the lowly forgotten to keep eyes on the prize
one voice leads the pack
but dwindling and muted, a vision they lack
duct taped silent as they money then grows
and the market flourished, sending a funeral rose
the shelters too full to take
the people too poor to rake
the money to pay rent
or food that wasn't heaven sent
Oh that smoky mountain rain
feel that old smoky mountain rain
ohhh that old mountain rain
feel that smoky wind again
oh the wind and hail!
feel that rain!
feel the sting!
let it cut your skin!
cut to the core, your sin!
wash away the pride
wash away the sin!
wash away the titles you love therein!
feel that old smoky mountain rain
ohhh that old mountain rain
feel that smoky wind again
oh the wind and hail!
