Got a god and her bless I want everything she offers and won't settle for less I see heaven under my feet as well as over my head Bet you wish you was already dead Always less done than said
Met this guy, who knows why But he says "I know where you'll go when you die" Told him how I felt for his god and that I wasn't impressed You see, I'm already blessed
I wanna ride Gun in my hand God on my side I've tired So far no good More than a little misunderstood
Love the fall No control They say "it takes one to know one" Well I know them all They say "stupid is as stupid does" Guess you'll always be if you ever was
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 a 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 were 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 your 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 devil's 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 a 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 devil's 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 its 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 devil's night out, do you dare And they've turned the lights out do you hear?
Sudden low of an all time high Willing to believe what ever gets me by So, I got with the winning team But nothing ever seem to be what it seems
Oh, 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 the 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 victories will keep you off your knees
Come have a listen 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's 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 Prey 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
He's a man Gonna do what the 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 planes To get the damn deal done
Went for the money No way to please them all Have had a 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
Say what? Well come again Do you think you can change it It's just a matter of time 'til it all will end I'm a wreck and so are you We're all wrecked up I got a date with the devil and so do you
Will our bad luck even turn I doubt it man I think we're destined to burn alive, yeah we have lost But you refuse to realize it at all cost And the futures now Isn't that tomorrow? How can a man be so blind to see a wreck is the only way. I'm a wreck!
Say what. Yeah, well come again Do you think you can change it? It's just a matter of time 'til it all will end I'm a wreck and we're all dead We're all wrecked up I'll be rockin' and rollin' in hell instead!
So put on a smile and I'll light the ignition This is real time, it ain't cinemavision And yeah, the time's right now it will never be tomorrow So don't ask how I can fit sixbillion in my car drive it off a cliff Go out like a dinosaur Here I am balanced on the edge and it makes me fucking scared!
Hollis Brown He lived on the outside of town Hollis Brown He lived on the outside of town With his wife and five children And his cabin fallin' down
You looked for work and money And you walked a rugged mile You looked for work and money And you walked a rugged mile Your children are so hungry That they don't know how to smile
Your baby's eyes look crazy They're a-tuggin' at your sleeve Your baby's eyes look crazy They're a-tuggin' at your sleeve You walk the floor and wonder why With every breath you breathe
The rats have got your flour Bad blood it got your mare The rats have got your flour Bad blood it got your mare If there's anyone that knows Is there anyone that cares?
You prayed to the Lord above Oh please send you a friend You prayed to the Lord above Oh please send you a friend Your empty pockets tell yuh That you ain't a-got no friend
Your babies are crying louder It's pounding on your brain Your babies are crying louder now It's pounding on your brain Your wife's screams are stabbin' you Like the dirty drivin' rain
Your grass it is turning black There's no water in your well Your grass is turning black There's no water in your well You spent your last lone dollar On seven shotgun shells
Way out in the wilderness A cold coyote calls Way out in the wilderness A cold coyote calls Your eyes fix on the shotgun That's hangin' on the wall
Your brain is a-bleedin' And your legs can't seem to stand Your brain is a-bleedin' And your legs can't seem to stand Your eyes fix on the shotgun That you're holdin' in your hand
There's seven breezes a-blowin' All around the cabin door There's seven breezes a-blowin' All around the cabin door Seven shots ring out Like the ocean's pounding roar
There's seven people dead On a South Dakota farm There's seven people dead On a South Dakota farm Somewhere in the distance There's seven new people born
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!

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