about

Every one in the band got to sing a verse but before they did that they were not allowed to hear what the others had recorded as to keep each others ideas, phrasing and style completely their own.

lyrics

Oh they’ll bury me in this cold desert sand
As my lungs start to fill with this boiling blood
Ive got a deadly pain in my side
And I can still feel the handle of the knife
What would my mama say if she could see me now?
Someone better feed my dog cause I don’t think im gonna make it home tonight
Suddenly I see those heavenly lights
And the angels cry tonight
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ive suffered the prays vicious and free
But it’s the pair of the wicked that kept my unclean
Ive spent my time taking Spent my time lying
In a tomb for the living I may as well die in
It’s the failures of fifty and the forty-niners
The line all the corners of each of us lyres
There row upon rows of hard earned tombstones
We better as ghosts
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are cracks in my leather skin
I won’t attempt to go back again
Ill tare down the paper fold
Wait till im certain the darkness will swallow my whole
As my legs begin aching, As warm blood turn to cold
I will remember my father’s words, Another thing that I stole
Place fear on the faces remember them well
Fear only the scratching and tearing and screaming and burning of hell
Under the stars forgotten im scattered
Disappear leave me to rest
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disarranged disillusion peeping silently
Communications reciprocation's are treating me violently
Dissolutional and dissected by the erected emotion of emotions
Commotions are just potions to mute and dilute
Feel real and leave into another leaf
Everyone’s homes are talking sitting quietly and walking
Downwards abundance to dance below low
Is this lisp fist gonna that form and warn? Try to warn another hit
The pips that pierce this fierce bound rip and tare the ground
Reflect and elected to be resurrected to reassurance
This walls hall has used up all of its all
This skin im in is fallen thin, Absorbed informed kin
Shell my hell and create and my hate
My love can dance and will always wait.
