Entombed - To Ride, Shoot Straight And Speack The Truth (1999) by Entombed (보컬) on maniadb.com

There ain't no god that will save you from regret
it's just that God is in a state of neglect
and it's your goddamn act that is major threat

Salvation won't be rearing it's head
for a fact at least not in my time
and what good is a song for peace
when the fucker doesn't even rhyme

I won't be calling, calling as we level
and when we're falling I'm like this with the devil
when they're creeping upon you, eating dust that you bleed
don't say I didn't warn you
A toast to death to myself 'cuz I'm free
Like this with the devil

Midnight, the subway train is here
there's a body on the tracks, but you're trying not to care
sensationally wicked it roars on thru in the night
"Look mom that body's got no head
it's covered in blood, do you think the man is dead?"
Your stomach turns, it itches and burns in the night

It's the devils night out, do you dare?
There ain't no hide out do you hear?

Look out! He picks out his gun, pulls the trigger with frustration
stupidity aside it rings out with the blast in the night
A blown out brain decorates the wall
Goddamn I thought I'd seen it all
rush to the sink, they don't care what you think in the night

It's the devils night out, do you dare?
It turns you inside out with fear!

Time heals no wounds it just won't pass
there ain't no promises that will last
The world's a ghoul and you are it's shovel in the night
And it goes without saying
no man will walk without praying
but it will do you no good unless you've understood
what's going down here in the night

It's the devils night out, do you dare?
And they've turned the lights out do you hear!?

I bare my scares with pride
My bones are cold right thru
The cuts are so deep
I'm on top of the world

I feel great 'bout my scars
Old habits - hard to break
The wound is to be
The cuts are so deep

I feel fine
the wound is the key
Scares are marks
Scares are art

Salvation's kickin' in
Hellucination breaking free

The wound is the source
The wound is the cause
The wound is my time
The wound is the high!

Sudden low of an all time high
willing to believe whatever gets me by
So, I got with the winning team
but nothing ever seem to be what is seems

O yeah! Well I don't care!
I'm just too busy getting from here to there

I put my hand over the flame
now, nothing would ever be the same
one day it's there - one day it's gone
but I still feel like I'm the lucky one, yeah!

Y'know how they say, "hey, don't rock a boat if you're in it"
well, the ship we're all in babe, is sinking by a minute
They say, "hey, it's all a bunch of bull!"
well, it's just what I've heard but they shoot every bird
that don't sing beautiful

Everyday victory, everyday peace
just them little, little things that keeps you off your knees
Sunshine of a smile, subtle if you please
them little victorys - will keep you off your knees

Come have a listen to what they got to say
Y'know me, I'm just glad when it comes my way
They say, "hey, we only hurt the ones we love"
well, it's not the kind of comfort I was thinking of

I don't know where it came from, just what it meant
it is getting pretty deep in here folks, please let me vent

Say it doesn't kill you - Will you last a little longer?
but every time they fight something down, it comes back even stronger

I don't know where it came from, God knows where it went
I just find it somewhat peculiar that it's all heaven sent

Ever get the feeling there's something you're not being told?
like your mind's put on hold
while your body is being bought and sold
Ever felt just a little bit out of control?
well, god bless your soul
pray you never reach a point when your only goal
is feeding a hole

I don't wanna learn anything new - Already know more than I want to
liked things better when I didn't understand them
we got them off the ground - now we can't land them

When all you have's a hammer, all you see is nails
When all you have's a hammer, and when all else fails
Hit the nails!

When all you have's a buzz-saw, all you see is wood
When all you have's a buzz-saw, you just wish you could
Yeah, you would!

When all you have's a lighter, all you see's a fuse
And when you see it burning, you ain't got nothing to lose!

When all you have's a shovel, all you see is graves
When all you have's a shovel, in hollow pits they will be saved
Light the fuse!

He's a man, gonna do what he can to make this world a decent place
He's a man, got a great little plan on how to give it a brand new face
He wants to erase
He wants to replace
He wants to wipe the scum of the earth off its pretty face

Didn't wanna be just another voice with an answer
he'd seen it done before and turn into a cancer
but he was a chancer
way romancer
He had such great plans
He had such great plans
to get the damn deal done

You break my bones
crush my head with stones
You dance on my grave
I am your slave

You tear out my eyes
feed me with lies
You piss on my brain
drive me insane

I love you baby when you're dead
and you're so red

Cut off my arms
bite off my legs
Saw off my head
for mercy I beg

You love me baby when I'm dead
I'm so red!

God's an insect with a sixlegged disbelief
burning bridges on my Indian Big Chief
Reality is just as sad

Kinky sex and murder - the way it's got to be
but have you heard her begging to be free?
Reality is just as sad

Went for the money, no way to please them all
Have had to go, it just felt so small.

Can't wait forever for someone to tuck you in
with no good name to lose you have everything to win

O man, when it's good it's great
when bad it's still OK
I'm just glad when it comes my way

Reached up to "god", the guy in control and said
"hey man listen, let's settle this once and for all"
sometimes silence, he said, is my way of saying no
but look twice and you're told everything in what I show
