Your garden of Eden is filled with serpents and vampires
serpents have taken your feet vampires sharpen their teeth
but the mark on your neck they can’t be covered
by this charming necklace
received upon entering
a long awaited homecoming
the dress that you wore
you thought was perfect
Reveals stains of the liars
carve the missing scripture into your skin
never forget those words again
mountains resonate with harps and violins
hopper full of hands clap again
From the music playing from the trees
mark it up and publish it strait to the sun
scripture on your skin words again
harps and violins
hopper full of hands clap again
i guess you should have faked your own death
Only to answer a few questions
as they transfuse your blood with the blood of another
sister , brother , father , mother
But the lines to the sermon
they were left out
Covered up with smoke and mirrors
You try to paint this perfect picture

SEEDS

handcuffed to the idea
we all bleed the same
who doesn’t believe this man dressed like Jesus
follow him to the valley
his choir all dressed like thieves
cuts down family tree after tree in front of me
He plants his own seeds beneath these ruins
his seeds are diseased, un heavenly
fire for his religion
he prepares his daily sermon for you to see
a virgin of murder
she’s masters a plan
to burn his body
as he has done to them
She tries to escape these lies
as a limb on that tree
His ordered bride came to be
Dressed in white she’s there to hide
hand in hand with her children
Attempt to escape these lies
a virgin of murder
she’s masters a plan
to burn his body
as he has done to them
She tries to escape these lies

NOVOCAINE

rocks in your hand
the leathers all weathered with panic
one legged man
shouts orders from the curbside
There’s an awkwardness in my armchair
rusty shovel leans in the corner
But I’m done digging this shallow hole for you
Yeah I’m done digging this shallow hole for you
crayon and paper
will map our buried treasures
reveal a clue
of our prize possessions
Novocain it makes us sane
I wouldn’t change anything
I’m done digging this shallow hole for you
I’m done digging this shallow hole for you

LIONS

Dig a grave to bury a old friend
for he swallowed the keys to their castle
they tried to feed him to the lions
father time has left him with nothing
a last supper fit for a king
soon they’ll come looking
one hundred hungry lions
soon they’ll come looking
the least I could do for a friend
who would feed me through the drawbridge
while the night watch while they were sleeping
and the lions they were feasting
a last supper fit for a king
soon they will come looking
one hundred hungry lions
soon they will come looking
if i could put you back together
if i could tame you from the lions
if i could return the key from your belly
in hopes the lions not noticing
if i could put you back together
if i could tame you from the lions
if i could return the key from your belly
in hopes of the lions not noticing
but I cant so I won’t
I’ll mark the grave with stones
maybe one day show your children
but I cant so I won’t
I’ll mark the grave with stones
maybe one day show your children
how I saved you from the lions
a last supper fit for a king
soon they will come looking
with one hundred hungry lions
soon they will come looking

MANSIONS

my mansion was built with my bare hands
my gardens all full of my favorite thistles
Don’t mind the bodies in the basement
They are the ones i can lay upon when I’m not feeling myself
insides dressed like nightmares
crooked pictures no one dares to smile
the moon casts its light on my mansion
candle flame aluminates the people on the outside
Don’t mind the bodies wrapped in carpet
i just keep them there to make sure they stay warm
insides dressed like nightmares
crooked pictures have been neglected for a while
maybe i should have fed them a little bit more
(to build up their strength for building)
maybe i should have fed them under the door
(to build up their strength for building)
i need to wash these bloodstained hands
I really let myself go
i could really use a hair cut
i think I’ll cut it myself
set up on a hill with a birds eye view of chaos
a man dies in the driveway his wife packs her bags in the house
red and blue line the streets i hope they’re not coming for me
i need to put my things the way they used to be
set up on a hill with a birds eye view of chaos
a man dies in the driveway his wife packs her bags in the house
red and blue line the streets i hope they’re not coming for me
as the knife sinks to the bottom of the sea

HOLLOW TEETH

I better clear my lungs
I’m gonna need a good breath
these fingers cant hold back this damn anymore
our aging bodies weren't meant to swim
i will eat you if i have to
i will throw your bones away
Don’t let them into your head
Don’t let them into your bed
just keep them dead instead
Don’t let them into your head
I’m as free as a flightless bird cant even mouth a word
instant coma’s kept in my pocket
I hope i wake up in 500 years
a thousand eulogies finger painted on my head
all this talking of sleep keeps me up for weeks
insomniac heart attack, i think i see all your teeth
one arm mannequin
dead cowboys and Indians
ill stand guard while you sleep
Sleep you sleep
I’m as free as a flightless bird cant even mouth a word
instant coma’s kept in my pocket
I hope i wake up in 500 years
a thousand eulogies finger painted on my head
I’m sorry if i eat you
I’ll try to keep them bones
just can't throw them away
ill try to keep them underneath
You know your safe with me
Your always safe with me

AWAKE
01:34

magical bus with no wheels gets us no where
quick sand really ain’t set up for dancing
we recreate the ending by ourselves
replace the real gold with fools
the cliff is inviting, cross the center line we own this now
please allow two minutes before you start eating
we recreate the ending by ourselves
and come to burn the tongues of the nay Sayers
our fearless driver grows horns on his head
Just to air out his dirty laundry
he is much too under paid
but takes his job seriously
his bag has no bottom
no end in sight cast spell after spell well into the night
awake awake awake
This fire turns to water

LADIES OF THE NIGHT
05:39
|

the buildings have swallowed us whole
our brothers slip through the cracks
panhandling proves successful
pocket lint and pennies
half smoked cigarettes
a box of wine to keeps us warm
ladies of the night frolic the corners
back and forth footsteps stain the pavement
oh their aching backs
Such lovely looking lipstick
lovely looking lipstick
the buildings have swallowed us whole
our brothers slip through the cracks
panhandling proves successful
pocket lint and pennies
half smoked cigarettes
a box of wine to keeps us warm
do you believe in a god
that would line the streets with his children
i thought we were all his children
do you believe in a devil
Oh god the devil , maybe I’m the devil
