Wasteland
03:27
|
|||
A severed death's head guards the gate where the morning killers wait
Steal a kiss and conjugate your final words
Given that a falsity comes between the destinies
Veins are collapsed in the lake, give us one more blow to take
Bats hesitant shed their manes, clouds are pissing out their rains
Seal the door and come to find your final emptiness
Given that a falsity comes between the destinies
Veins are collapsed in the lake, give us one more blow to take
Some yellow shade caressed the sky, putrid visions in your eye
Devils sentence you to die in juried hearings
Given that a falsity comes between the destiny
Veins are collapsed in the lake, give us one more blow to take

Useless Keyring
01:43

Moved in yesterday, didn't get a key
Stuck in here with all my stuff, sucks to be me
Smoked 7 cigarettes on the ashtray
Gonna be here for the weekend all day
All my friends are all around, they don't know about me
Because I can't leave my room cuz I ain't got a key
I've taken 15 naps so far, about to go again
Wish I had a key today, but I don't, the end

Brass Sky

Out in the distance there's a way
Out in the morning beyond the day
I'll be waiting like a slow river rolling
Passin time in the waves
She'll be calling, waiting for you
To bathe in sun rays to bathe in dew
She'll be waiting in the afternoon
Dropping petals to the grass
Out in the distance there's a way
Out in the morning beyond the day
I'll be waiting like a slow river rolling
Passin time in the waves

Drought
03:50
|
|||
Orange light shinin down on me
Revealin things I never thought that I could see
Gone to leave me in misery
Must be a drought in my eyes
Undertakers pass my door
Sellin my pain, sellin my pain and askin for more
Spillin my brain onto the floor
Lord there must be some kinda drought in my eyes
Well there ain't no comfort in the chair
And there ain't no comfort in the bed
Lord knows if you're lookin for comfortin thoughts
You won't find none in my head
Set the alarm clock back an hour
Shadows castin longer lines
Left my innocence behind
Sucked the sense right out my mind
Must be a drought, I said there must be a drought in my eyes
Time don't move, the lock don't break
There wasn't nothin left to take
Down all night and wide awake
Must be a drought in my
There must be a drought in my eyes
There ain't no blanket can warm me
And there ain't no fire too real
And there ain't nobody to tell me that I ain't as alone as I feel
The world's a blur to my tired eyes
My head is like a basket of water

Bored
God I'm bored
So bored
Bored
Nothin to do
I'm bored
Bored
Nothin to do
Bored
I'm so bored
I'm so bored
Bored out of my skull
Somebody shoot me
Make me bleed just to give me something to do

Mass Graves
04:44
|

Down home life burnin up in a blink
Only when you're plastered can you start to think
Necromalic child of a filtered life
Living for the cold of an autopsy knife
Who digs your grave Mister Cotton
Son of a biscuit slow hand what you gotten
The soup is cold and all your crops are rotten
Buckshot soda and your three-legged horse is trottin
Fill up your musket with the telephone fuel
Self-effaced totem pole, facetless jewel
Hangin from the rafters with a bat in your hair
Bones in your eyeballs and you wonder why they stare
Who digs your grave Mister Cotton
Son of a biscuit slow hand what you gotten
The soup is cold and all your crops are rotten
Buckshot soda and your three-legged horse is trottin
Mass graves like a K&B pencil
Mass graves your name is next on the stencil

Total Trash Living Space
02:08
|

Made a mess again, big mess
Made a mess again, big mess
Made a mess again, a big mess
You gotta tell me sometime how it is, what it’s like
To be pissed off at the world 24/7
Yeah
Outdated calendars still in the trash somewhere on the carpet
This plastic green screw useless
You must tell me how it is, what it’s like
To be pissed off at the world 24/7
You must tell me how it is, what it’s like
To be pissed off at the world 24/7

Leech

No time for restin, no time to clean
No time for lovin, no time to be lean
No need for sleepin, no need to be loose
No need for a phone card, yeah I got the juice
No leaves in the mattress, no coins in the can
No cold in the icebox, no cash in my hand
Oh ripped me a new one shootin pool at the bar
Shootin pool, yeah the sewer hole's callin me, run me down with a car
Wrap my head in the clingwrap, put my hands in the towels
Spell my name on a quarter without using no vowels
|

9. |
||||
Ain't no end to the trash I seen
Drank a glass of gasoline
Got the boot now I'm all alone
Fishin for change in a public phone
Low on life and high on dope
Choked myself with the soap on a rope
Spittin sayings, all insane
Leavin marks all in my brain
Got the soda, got the tune
Got my soul stuck on the moon
Spillin shit all down the road
Parked my smile, it got towed
Seen the scene, been there before
Slammin my own face in the door
Goin wild, goin down
Bleeding knuckles, sucker crown
Sit and moan and lay and grunt
September is a fucked up month
Killin time's what it's now all about
Pick me up and drum me out
|

10. |

I'm like damn, yeah
Sheddin sweat bullets like a sawed-off gun
Flying off walls in a room of one
Peelin off plaster from my ceiling fan
Toothpick wound in the middle of my hand
Limp wet dollar layin down in a glass
Filter smokin killer's jumpin on my ass
Broken record rockin from five to nine
With a burnt-out jimmy workin for the wine
Yeah givin us directions
Seven plain selections
Liquid mind corrections
I'm like damn
Semaphore junkies wavin plastic flags
Wake of confusion in my sleepin bag
Blue dye runnin down the side of his face
Well I want a whiskey sour with a shot of mace
Corporate disco on the side of the street
Dusty gray bones looking for the meat
Salivate your life on the side of the ditches
While your Frankenstein monster's pickin at his stitches
Givin us directions, yeah
Seven plain selections
Liquid mind corrections
I'm like damn
Yeah, bust it
Takin it down, so
Fisherman's net caught up in a draft
Suicidal monkey hanging on the raft
Detrimental can in the back of a truck
Where you ask for directions and you're out of luck
Silver tongued artist with the tarnish blues
Road hockey hitcher with nothin to lose
Cremated man in a brown ashtray
You can't hit a note when you try to play

I'm Going Down
03:11
|
|||
I’m goin down, I’m gonna go down
I’m know I’m goin down for the fourth time
I got my keyring in my hand
So I can open the door there in that whitened land
Mississippi red when I got that flashlight in my head
And I’ma get one, got a flashlight head
Lord knows that I’m goin down
I know I'm goin down
Got my leather wallet in the afterlife or am I gonna have to leave it layin around
I'm goin down
Ain’t nobody comin with me, I gotta do this on my own while I'm so stoned
I’m goin down
Yeah uh uh yeah goin down, down
There’s nobody watchin
There’s, there’s nobody watchin
I’ll never feel the air conditioner again or see the chessboard
Or, uh, well, watch the VCR
Or uh, I gotta go, I’m, I need to, I’m too busy dying

Stifle boot! Da
