Time to get paid today
Another face I file away
Turned the corner long ago
Never looked back, never slowed

Under the still of night
Standing in shifting light

Homely, thick in mind, never listen

Worn, tired, siren drawn, tunnel vision

Don't forget this chance only live once

Sprung, hypnotized by light, had to get some

Alabama trailer park they call home
Boy standing at attention in the corner his own
Terrified, scorpion crawling the wall
By the way father, could you please beat me some more?

Anger rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you got a plan
Deaf and blind I'm living with the lepers and

Don't deny I did you cold
I broke your trust and lied
Controlling, selfish, gossip abound
Cocaine mouth over mind

And I say
"I wash my hands, pull the slivers
No master plan, I deliver"

Day break, wind is blowing strong
No escape, caught on a reef in the storm
Castaway, licking his cracked lips sore
Patient, waits, hoping the rats reach the shore...yeah...yeah

Yesterday, seems a lifetime now
Remembering, those he left and how
Out in space, laughing at all below

Should I live so long
To see 'em dropping bombs
Hope I have you near
Check out what comes after here… what comes after here

Generation turned a chemical tribe
Don't really care if we live or die
Generation turned a chemical tribe

I can't feel my life
Makes me want to cry
How bad i feel inside
Like I wanna die

Can't explain, won't apologize
Re-entry blown, while I was gone tilt of axis changed

Give it a name, get it out of your home
Out in your backwoods a doghouse you own
Give it a name like a howling blue hound
Chasing your fears man he's hunting you down

Give it a name, get it out of your eye
Come from the dockland got your low hangin' high
Give it a name, though you call yourself saved

All dreams have died, along the way
I coughed up the price, I bought a cage
I've had a hell of a time since I went away
Don't know when I died, or where to lay down

Gone, gone away
Yeah gone, gone away

Going down a last act scene
Curtain call begin bowing
Self-appointed abuse king
Hellbound, that's my belief

Black eat white, cassette thrill
Whatever come, eat your fill
Choke on bones, flowing stream long stilled

His hands are clenched
His knuckles white
He got a gun
And gave up the fight

When I found out
I couldn't even cry
Well, I am now

Haven't seen her, she hit the wall last night
Bumped his head low, a cause-effected fight
She says she ain't gonna take it no more
(golden ring around her finger)
But she won't ever set him free
(golden ring around his finger)
Come to find out, she'd been with someone else
So it's a bitch now, he sees it in himself

Everything you heard I did and maybe then some, ok
Does it make you happy and now is it out of the way?
Everything you heard I done and probably then some, ok
Does it really matter, of course I took it all the way
What more can I say
Locked on-what's the deal?
Faded rock star, push and needle
You don't know, well that's alright

She won't tell me lies
She want to see me smile, yeah
Every time you let it show
I didn't want to know
By the time I had lost my soul
You had to go
She come, in disguise
I want to say goodbye, yeah

I'm a whore, can't ignore this, my lot
Live in guest house of palace I bought
Guess, my pimp treats me swell, I confess
I'm a whore, might as well be the best

Owned, breaking, sell the kids my soul
Owned, raking, corporation roll
Owned, breaking, sell the kids my soul

Gave it all away, blood or song
And there's nothing left, used to be someone
Never really die, live in magazines and on the radio
Hasbeen demi-god

Pro false idol
Pro false idol
Pro false idol come pray

I feel the fear take hold
Reside in darkness, thrive where most won't go
Adrift, I curse this gift
And hope you never know

Feel like a psychotic break comin' on
Snapping two by fours
Punching holes in dry wall

I would like to know
How you cage a bird aflight
Feathers bright
To show your might
Are you such a stone
Smile greasy, you pick my bones
Crawl inside
Have you no life

Though you're always on my mind
Found a sickness that was mine
Chose a life out on the run
All alone inside this game
Until I'm done
Sometimes I don't think I can trust myself no more
Seems I've failed you all my life
Youthful dreams you'd be my wife

Copacetic, calm my frenetic, she’s the s**t y’all
Highly-rated, well-educated, she’s an angel
She’s ambitious, beautiful, delicious, got a restaurant
I can take it, truth stripped me naked, yeah I f**ked up...yeah

She was my girl
Used to be my world
I miss my girl

Rolling over keys that dig my side
Try to get my ass out of bed and drive
Feel I'm slipping day by day
Past the time I was on my way

Happiness and black both known, much learned
Long and hard the way a path of twisted turns

Happy new day - does it matter?

Thinning go low, high get fatter

Well I'm flattered

Joke pissboy - ain't he a sight
