Blood red through the scope where my soul lies Face down in the gutter I could wake up from all of this Late night talks with holy devils tapping my phone line I don’t think about it I just let it be what it is Left death swinging from a chord, alright I came up with religion I knew better than all of this Pray to Black Madonna, she ain’t scared of no borderlines All I know is we drive fast and we die slowly We Lost step on the wire Now they hold our feet to the fire I wanna feel it Feel it I wanna feel it Beg, steal and borrow Another blood soiled American motto Soaked in the cotton, weaved into the fabric, into the jacket, full-automatic The dream’s been hollow, for how long? Burn it all yeah, to the ground Kill the noise yeah, with our own sound And let the gun clap We Lost step on the wire Now they hold our feet to the fire I wanna feel it Feel it I wanna feel it If we’re gonna run, we won’t say goodbye Shooting straight like Icarus toward the sun Gleaming like the shell of a .45 We Lost step on the wire Now they hold out feet to the fire I wanna feel it Feel it I wanna feel it

Told to never wait for signs, than answer’s swimming inside of my mind Crashing in the waves behind my eyes Drowning in the flow, forget to brace for the fall Sundown fingers paint the skies Counting halos in the headlights Quiet hell, streets that we grew up on Life’s a cannibal it eats until there’s no more The more I try to fight it, the more it takes control Oh lord, no one can save me now When I go, I’m coming back for sure We out, we out here Don’t tell us all we need is time A time to live and a time to die Our oblivion is personal How far left to go, till pain don’t hurt anymore? We live in fear of being lonely, to have no one to hold Shackles of the life that we grew up for Left it all to know, the view on top of the world The more I try to hide it, the more it seems to show Oh lord, no one can save me now When I go, I’m coming back for sure We out, we out here No holding back, no holding back no No holding back, no holding back no No holding back, no holding back no No holding back...we out, we out here

Caves 04:15
We are all that's left But is that enough in this modern age? Scrape blessings off our shoes, pray to our phones, and get high So many sharks in the water Not gonna be one of those lucky people who feels no pain when they die I'm running out of ways to pacify myself Feels less like the modern age with no books on your shelf Can we go back to the days we lived in caves? Do we really want it all if it all just feels the same? I know I don't have the right to give you good advice I'm just another lost soul in the present tripping over myself And I know our circuit board hearts are mourning No validation in digital blood Can we go back to the days we lived in caves? Do we really want it all if it all just feels the same? When I'm alone at night, I can't hide it no more I wanted more for myself But there's no making it right When you're looking for light outside of yourself We are all that's left But is that enough in this modern age? Scrape blessings off our shoes, pray to our phones and get high So many sharks in the water Not gonna be one of those lucky people who feels no pain when they die I'm running out of ways to pacify myself Feels less like the modern age with no books on your shelf Can we go back to the days we lived in caves? Do we really want it all if it all just feels the same?

Relaxx 03:53
Stealing the breath from your lungs It shook you to the bone like summer war drums You let me take you higher than higher would go Into the jaws of paradise with eyes closed Shatter into me Oh, ain’t breakin’ no law, burning the secrets we saved Oh, ain’t takin’ no loss, talking leaves too much to say Relax, pull back, let it go Grief doesn’t care who you are And even love can’t make you the someone you’re not Baptized in the eye of the fire you know You cannot trust yourself, lets you ride alone Shatter into me Oh, ain’t breakin’ no law, burning the secrets we saved Oh, ain’t takin’ no loss, talking leaves too much to say Relax, pull back, let it go Even the life I lose was a good life after all, even the life I lose Welcome to the life I choose, now I believe every word Nobody writes my rules Oh, ain’t breakin’ no law, burning the secrets we saved Oh, ain’t takin’ no loss, talking leaves too much to say Relax, pull back, let it go Even the life I lose was a good life after all, even the life I lose Welcome to the life I choose, now I believe every word Nobody writes my rules

Smoking grass down in the garden, the color convulsions started In the night, dog’s fire their thoughts at will My bed is caught up in a draught, moving in, moving out Lie alone on the edge of my thoughts, oh well I was thinking, that I might spare the world Another Ambien-addled zombie Fire in my belly burning till mouth opens and hell unfurls Is it love? Is it drugs? Is it money? I got it but I’m scary when I need it You know the cold wind’s bout to blow, cold wind Ice is building on my soul I came over to get high But I just fall asleep, one drag at a time to avoid the low I’m still conquering my lows, lows, lows Still conquering my lows, lows, lows Foolish for thinking it could never be worse When you’re dealing with the devil the payment never comes first Fuck you and your credit, papa said it If it’s demon call it out Or the hands silencing your mouth will take more than you allow And now there’s way too many eyes in this parking lot Intentions underground, but through cracks they be talking loud Dean is on the phone saying “Be there in 45” But he means 20, in this life, you do best to look alive Is it love? Is it drugs? Is it money? I got it but I’m scary when I need it You know the cold wind’s bout to blow, cold wind Ice is building on my soul I came over to get high But I just fall asleep, one drag at a time to avoid the low I’m still conquering my lows, lows, lows Still conquering my lows, lows, lows

Street Rat 05:18
Street rat, sinner, Sunday worshipper, mother's boy Your conscience always writhing, sticky fingers in September heat Oh, steam is rising, there's fire in the concrete, yeah Every summer we shuffle, we hustle, we burn it down and bleed for money we never keep I'm just a front street boy with back alley ways And the part of me I lost seeps through like sweat stains Tell me, where am I now? Laughing and drinking with the lost and the never found Ooo yeah, woah I could be anyone Speak truth to power, let the rain wash off the silence Cuz right now it weighs a ton Ooo yeah, woah I could be anyone Speak truth to power, let the rain wash off the silence Cuz right now it weighs a ton Aw yeah, Aw yeah, aw yeah Get back, I'm worse than the place that I am running from Can the devil get a soul clap? Choirs of smoking harlots sing Ave Maria The rapture in your bed picks me up at a quarter to five I'm sorry I cannot stay I'll whistle you tunes from the gutter, to let you know I'm alive I'm just a front street boy with back alley ways And the part of me I lost seeps through like sweat stains Tell me, where am I now? Laughing and drinking with the lost and the never found Ooo yeah, woah I could be anyone Speak truth to power, let the rain wash off the silence Cuz right now it weighs a ton Ooo yeah, woah I could be anyone Speak truth to power, let the rain wash off the silence Cuz right now it weighs a ton
