Numb
04:58

Little rich girl, like a mouse
You gnaw on dead things
and scurry about
In a pinch girl, you get real small
You disappear girl, into a wall
Crawl inside us as we slumber
try and find the holes
Bore inside behind our eyes
assuming full control
Messenger I’m numb
Read it to me
‘cause I feel so dumb
Passengers in love
Traveled so far now
broken and stunned
Noble spider, upon my wall
Watching over my imminent fall
Wrapped in silk and oh so safe
At first bite am I to your taste
Darkness dreams about us

Heathens

I got a message
but it’s all spelled wrong
Circled your house like a drone
It’s in the wreckage
removing steel from bone
light up the sky then you’re gone
I got the launch codes
I got the daily brief
Brains filled with all broken parts
I got no false hope
I’m on the hangman’s rope
It’s darkest but never the dawn
There’s no tomorrow there’s no way
There’s only sorrow left to find
Heathens
rise above the ashes as the night falls
Crashing down upon us
like the tide comes
Wash away the markings
on the sidewalks
Makes it look like we were never here
We got the sickness
we got the fever dreams
visions of saints ain’t enough
Forget forgiveness it felt just like a dream waiting on truth from above
You got the cat’s eye
you got the razor shined
cleaving the flesh from your soul
We watched the world end
we make it break and bend
Moving like ghosts in the road

Flying Monkeys

I don’t like that monkey staring
as if we’d walk out just to spite him
He just grins as if he can see
all of my old sins as if he knows me
If he bites we think he just might now try to sink those teeth into my brain
Telling lies to all the bad guys
as they take flight across the table
Will he win or will he be
treacherously close to wearing
the same hat that I wore
Drinking gin and dancing like the
Mata Hari right across the floor into
a Model T look at me
Sink or swim or take the slide down
the alley watch out now ‘cause everything’s dangerous
Is he real or is he gone down
among the poor and dumb just waiting to banish us vanquish us
I really shouldn’t stay too long the primate and his friends will kill me
Even though they know it’s wrong they’re stronger than ten of you and me
Now you got ‘em standing tall
ready to just dismember me
Damn if he dancing on, glancing strutting right towards me

Sic Riff

Sic Riff breaking your hips
when the drummer slows down
the pit gets sick
It’s a sign we’re in the big time
Trip trip as the drugs you take hit when the satellite’s down
my Netflix skips
In our prime it’s showtime
We made the deal
we got to bury it deep no faking
Beg borrow steal we got to set it on fire
This isn’t real
this isn’t my home but maybe
We spin the wheel and just let it fly
Life is surreal
it gives you a taste then takes it
There’s some appeal
in watching them die
Can’t make ‘em kneel
and buy into all this crazy
it’s not ideal but let’s give it a try
Everything is fine
we’re running out of time
they say it’s over
Swine falling far behind
the climb with no rope

Bear Sedatives
05:17
|

Dangerous no gravity
it’s beautiful for all to see
Take the bear sedatives
and everyone will feel alright
it’s an ancient remedy
like sugar water laced with spite
Hundred million years ago
depression killed the dinosaurs
Hundred million years ago
some fish crawled up onto the shores
In danger of hypocrisy
salacious tales told with urgency
Treacherous no honesty
we’ve fallen out we could never be

Human Head
05:44
|

I bought a human head
and placed it on my shelf
It watches over me and no one else
I took my human heart
and placed it in this box
I sewed it in your chest
and tied you up in knots
On the wings of Satan
My blade is raised
you’re my new creation
I had a human soul
put it up for sale
I cut it into parts
and placed it in the mail
I had the greatest love
the bones so wide and strong
I keep it buried near
in case you ever come
All of my skeletons come to life
and they dance in the moonlight
Smiles just so elegant
we can act just like everything’s alright
Whispers on the breeze, mountain falls
this is all of these, there’s nothing more
Piss is on the breeze, mountain falls
This is all of these, there’s nothing more
