You take
You fucking take
I am dog now
Trash mouth
Veins full of garbage
I am dog now
& you see nothing
Destroyed nose
Unrepairable skin
I am dog now
No cage
Nowhere to go at all
I am dog now
Remember
Everyone bleeds
I am dog now
& you see nothing
Watch the red roses bloom on their shirts as they die

Shame

The earth felt cold until
It burned red hot in my hands
My eyes were truthful then
I was an ignorant man
The way the bombs explode
The way it tore up their skin
I was tryin to spit
Thought they were killing my friends
And the world was quaking open
With all our fathers smiling
And the statues rose high above us
And god remained silent
In their parents arms
The kids were falling apart
Broken tiny bodies
Holding tiny still hearts
There are myriad ways
To destroy human skin
Red flesh exposed raw
Over and over again
And the world was quaking open
With all our fathers smiling
And the statues rose high above us
And god remained silent
It stung hot in my eyes
The illusion of justice
It burned deep in my face
Felt unbearably selfish
In my mind right now
It’s just horrible darkness
Had to break away
Knowing no one can save us
All tears flow from the same source
And the world was quaking open
With all our fathers smiling
And the statues rose high above us
And god remained silent
Shame

Shadow on the wall
Like I was never there
Pull the mask down
And escape into the dark
They don’t wanna hear what I have to say
The gates of heaven
Rough and awful thing
Every move is pain
Don't worry, it’s just the night
They don’t wanna hear what I have to say
Pull the mask down
And disappear

Funny Man

I broke my knees upon the pearl & onyx
In the hall of trophies built to honor my father
Spilled the blood, gave em as much as they wanted
Still had to dance for my supper, still had to give them my body
Different masks
Different pain
Big world
Small change
Outside there’s no mercy
& not everyone can hide
Not everyone gets to hide
The wicked jester is dancing and clapping
As my big strong hands kill the people they told me
There are times that I can almost believe it
I can almost imagine I was meant to do this and be here
Caged life
Caged hurt
Passed down
Past earth
Outside there’s no mercy
& not everyone can hide
Not everyone gets to hide
They move the pieces on the pearl & onyx
If the horror don’t kill me, my rotten teeth will
The trophies gleam thru glass cases I polished
All the floor has my story, all they need is more bodies
The cruel ending is that my story continues
I help them to live but why am I living?
I gave them my flesh to write the final chapter
But the blood from my sons is just a new beginning
Funny man

Watch it change in my hands
Watch the whole goddamn world change
Everything that I know
Completely obliterated
Watch it change in my hands
Watch the whole goddamn world change
I was driving all the way
I didn’t stop here to stay, but
I can feel it
But I can feel it all
And they were back-
Out in the world then
And their skin was cold to the touch
Close your eyes and know them
Close your eyes and feel them change
Everything inside me
Completely disintegrated
Close your eyes and know them
Close your eyes and feel their pain
I was driving all the way
I didn’t stop here to stay, but
I can feel it
But I can feel it all
Lets watch it again

The wheels
Spin loose
My head
Explodes
Their face
My eyes
Don’t care
Don’t know
If I could I’d kill them all
It was the worst I ever saw
Earth keeps
The most
Vile things
Displayed
Faces
Alarmed
No truth
Too late
Wanted
Out of
The space
No way
Nothing
It’s all
There on
The tape
If I could I’d kill them all
It was the worst I ever saw
I guess someone had to see
Someone had to be horrified by what they had done
Someone had to say something or it would have gone on forever,
So I can’t wish I didn’t stop it, I can’t wish that-
They made tapes
We shouldn’t have gone onto that property
And even still further into the house-
We should have let someone know and they could have handled it-
Someone else could have handled it
They made tapes
It was the worst I ever saw

The New World

Must’ve been a dream I was having
Must’ve been all inside of my head
Every moment that we gave such meaning
Is all drawings on the sides of caves in chalk
I don’t wanna be a part of your nightmare, listen-
I don’t wanna be the reason you don’t talk
The night falls whichever way it wants to
They came for them and then they made them walk
The skull speaks and it’s words are truthful
The skull speaks as the wind curves around the rock
To be lost
To be whole
To be bought
To be sold
To lose hope
To lose god
To find hate
To find law
Most are dragged
Most are dragged kicking and screaming out
Into the new world
Must’ve been a dream I was having
Must’ve been a delusion of pink and red
Every moment that the bird sings sweetly
Can’t be captured by the tip of the ballpoint pen
I couldn’t take on the weight of existence
I couldn’t watch them execute my friendsThe
dark falls whichever way it wants to
They came for me and then they made me walk
The skull speaks and it’s words are truthful
The skull speaks as the wind curves around the rock
To be lost
To be whole
To be bought
To be sold
To lose hope
To lose god
To find hate
To find law
Most are dragged
Most are dragged kicking and screaming out
Into the new world
Everything that the

Sorry for asking again
I understand why you don’t
Why I should just close my mouth
Like I don’t get the joke
I’m strange
I’m wild
I’m free
I’m fine
Don’t ask
Me in
Don’t tell
Your friends
I
Trust and bleed
I
I caught you laughing again
I know I’m lower than scum
I need to keep my mouth shut
Before I look fuckin dumb
I’m strange
I’m wild
I’m free
I’m fine
Don’t ask
Me in
Don’t tell
Your friends
I
Trust and bleed
I
You caught me talking again
You said you don’t wanna fight
But you could stop this right now
You could save me tonight
I’m strange
I’m wild
I’m free
I’m fine
Don’t ask
Me in
Don’t tell
Your friends
I
Trust and bleed
I
It’s your world
So cut
Cut me open
Trust and bleed

Milk of Human Kindness

They said the word and it was
We bought the truth just because
Told us to go, so we went
Out on a road rough and bent
Out to protect what we love
Their blood all over our gloves
I screamed about it all night
I screamed (I screamed)
I see them everywhere now
Haunt my life, you’re allowed
I screamed about it all night
I screamed (I screamed)
I’d heard
Nothing about the way they burn
I screamed (I screamed)
I screamed about it all night

From the time you were born it was over
Dreams
Shattered on the ground
Back then I was a believer
A dreamer
I got nothing now
Used to be so much time
We got
No escape
No way out
Feed them lies
Feed them lies-
Used to be so much time
(Time to pay)
Used to be so much time
We got
No escape
No way out
