High Horse 03:46
Woe is my demeanor as it acts in self defense Choking on your anecdotes and sneering confidence Nurture my sick nature and its endless appetite Lets go lynch the neighbors ‘cause they’re bumming out my high There’s nothing we can do stuck in this monkey suit Throw shit at the ugly truth locked inside this fucking zoo Lost in space on a hell ride, it’s a death race up to paradise Its time to leave this place and go into the light Yeah the stakes are high betting on the afterlife Get on up from that high horse Get down off of that high horse Giddy Up! You better ride that horse Get outta town, you’re gonna’ die on that horse Save my life don’t save my soul Where I go when I die nobody knows Tie your holy ghost to that hitching post With that old high horse Drag around this body bag through dust and dirty fumes Strike a match and light a pack of existential doom Fix me up another round of poison make it well Till I have no fear, the end is near on the short bus to hell A few dollars short, soon I’ll be hangin’ high Its good, its bad, its ugly on the run from angel eyes Caught in the wake of a eugenicide Pray me away I can’t be exorcised Haters gonna’ hate, spread misery and lies Yeah you ain’t divine, you’re just wasting time We don’t need no entertainment I am what I am and I don’t give a good god damn We don’t need no pop control Stupid is as stupid does, majority rules and free is dumb No dark sarcasm on the album Come on down and join the cult or get struck by a lighting bolt Get on board this crazy train, praise the lord we’ve all been saved He’s watching you so best behave, you don’t want to go down in flames Now get down on your knees and pray!

The harvest is starting to rot Pestilence got a hold of our crop Prune and pick the eventual loss The rest will be gone to overhead cost It sure is nice living on a farm A log on the fire and some whiskey in a jar Howl at the moon take a piss under the stars I got a cannabis card now I’m working on a farm There ain’t no cash living off the land Still everyone is holding out their hand Floods from the north are driving down the price In-­‐door, export is heating up the vice But it sure is nice living on the farm Drunk, playing cards, eating mushrooms in the dark Bury the cash in the yard when they burn down the barn I got a cannabis card now I’m working on a farm Another sunrise from a sleepless night Cooped up inside with it all on the line Cabin fever is burning my mind Break even in the spring, by fall we’ll be fine Wasting time growing marijuana Is southern California, we’ll never see a profit out of here Grow buds on the ponderosa Green fools gold rush stuck another year

Hold Me Up 03:37
Ice cold queen Your scowl don’t match the symmetry of your anatomy Eyes frozen mean mugging me Let’s drink until we have friendly personalities You hate my face, I don’t like your hair Shut up and kiss me lets get out of here Won’t you make my Monday night longer Tuesdays love is two for one Wednesday I’m looking to skip town Thursday you’re shit out of luck Fridays I can’t remember I spend Saturday night on the run from Sunday morning, someone hold me up Tattooed sleeve Roses, thorns and heartbreak, friends who rest in peace Smokescreen Cigarettes and whiskey cauterize feelings I’m not you’re type, you’re being a bitch We should probably just go fuck and get over it You don’t have the heart I don’t have the time Selfish suspicions don’t need a reason why You made it clear, but I’m the last one here I can see it in your eyes you don’t want to be alone tonight Won’t you be my drunk fuzzy memory Or something that lasted too long Lust turned to obsession Or the one who don’t return my calls No regrets and no emotion I can’t promise to prove you wrong But come the morning I’ll for sure be gone

Carmageddon 02:57
United States of highways violence and rage I'm gonna’ drive it my way gonna win this human race Burnin rubber blowin smoke like mr. toad Peelin out my tire tracks are screeching down the road Get out the way I'm running late I speed and scream and cuss Shift n swerve then flip then bird y'all can eat my dust. Step out the door into the bright lights It's time to go for a ride Got somewhere to be I gotta drive Just me and my automobile Spending all my God damn cash filling up with gas Oil change insurance claims fines from driving fast Tortoise in the fast lane rabbits passing on the right It's a free for all till Johnny law is pulling up behind Step out the bar into the night It's time to go for a ride Got someone to do, go drink n drive Gonna die in my automobile Kelly was a race car driver, she drove so god damn fast With a need for speed and a sticky beak and boy she’d ride my ass Chads mashin with the top down got a blue tooth in a ear He's on the job, dropping stocks in my rear view mirror There's a mama bear right over there in her shitty mini van Packed full of her chubby dumbass Cubs suckling off the man Here comes Johnny right up on me flashin purdy lights Now I gotta walk the line blow 0-­‐9 and get my dui Why oh why don't take my liscense to drive God bless the dinasours bubblin down below Gonna frack n suck n drill till we're all outta black gold Blood stains, pump the breaks, eight lanes of gridlock Fuck your kids I hope they wheeze to death on my exhaust Step out the door goin 95 It's time to go, im outta time Got no regard for human life Fuck you and your automobile

Not the Ones 04:04
So we've come to the end of this way And we all bid farewell with no shame We're pardoned today of the old all and chain As we take our first steps to the wild Like brothers of a motherless child We burn the old pile light cigars in a smile All we ever wanted was our greatness tried and true Not mediocre moments we got better things to do So get off tune in and drop out No one knows what they’re talking about Dollars and guns were not the ones And our epitaphs will stain the walls Like tags dripping down bar room stalls Broke and appalled the herd at last call When the ruckus submits to the law With bloodied cuffed wrists and broke jaws Street sweep the mob with no probable cause All we ever needed was a roof over our heads Stereos and whiskey and the love of wild women And there’s really enough to go round But we still stick our necks underground Cowards and thugs, we're not the ones So sing another dumb pop song And pass out like nothing is wrong Storms reeling the calm with a stretch and a yawn We're idiot savants with guitars Drunk dangling from the monkey bars Missed the train to mars out back counting stars All we ever waited for was something meaningful With barrels at our skulls refusing to be dull And the icons will slither inside With venomous bite fills of pride Like a stepfathers love

Hello linda, que honda? Pardon me for staring but my mind has been made up I don’t believe in true love But girl I’ve got it bad, I’m just a simple man But I guess I move too slow, so you’ll probably never know I want to lay down by your side I need to come and spend the night I got to feel you in my life I can’t take it anymore Show me love woman, show some love mama Show some love come on Don’t leave me hanging mi amor Ay dios mio, you can’t be real I will surely burn in hell for the way you make me feel I don’t believe in destiny But you’re body chemistry is rearranging me well I guess I’ll rest my case with a slap across the face I’m not leaving here without you Please don’t make me cause a scene I’m love sick and you’re my fix so please don’t walk away from me I’m intoxicated, infatuated Won’t you lend a helping hand I’ll crawl the floor and block the door Just please accept this drunk romance Yo quiero, no me hagas llorar Contigo necesito acostar Oley! Te Deseo, por favor no pasar Yo no puedo tomar mas

Demon Night 05:13
I can feel it creeping over me Like the first few drops of rain Tiny voices keep me company In a tomb of wicked whispers wide awake If to live is to suffer only in death will we find peace Leave this life to start another, release the soul become the beast Our god is an angry god he wants us all to die like dogs City of the future towering over modern ruins Our homes are scabs on the terrain Swarm the night like locusts we are the mutants Toxic waste flows through the veins Wanton spirits roam in slumber A carnival built on graves Feel the pleasure in the thunder Lighting strikes ignites the flame Our god is vengeful god and he won’t stop till he rights this wrong Like a bullet in the bonfire pressures building down below Slowly growing into monsters dancing ‘round the clouds of smoke Drum roll pounding through the ribcage pumping streams of boiling blood Ears are ringing screams of rapture laughing skulls with rabid tongues Soul leaves the flesh no longer hexed by fear of death Lost in free fall down the pit where lakes of fire will take what’s left Into darkness, into blackness, Its begun, heathen! Demon night! We want a sacrifice, we need a sacrifice for the demon night Our god is an angry god, our god is a vengeful god Is his mighty jaws we’ll die like dogs When the dust clears and the sunlight appears Swollen eyes bleeding tears through the cracks in the mirror Broken mind, broken bones, broken lives, broken homes Madman, a cretin with a bad bad feeling they’ll be back

Mothership 04:37
The sun beats down in ultra violet Mad burning visions in a sweaty apartment Into the toxic hellfire murder-­‐scape A concrete maze boiling over with hate And they wonder why I don’t feel alright ‘till the sun goes down And my soul keeps trying to crawl right out of my skin Take a shot of self preservation and chase it with sin Man, common sense is a million to one I’m having trouble speaking in my native tongue And I got a bad feeling that this ship ain’t turning around Out on the front porch staring up Somewhere between the fucked and the fortunate ones Searching my pockets for that one way ticket, that will get me back on to the mothership Just a tiny speck on the ass of existence And old rusty link in the chain of resistance Clench the drunk buoy in the sea of the strange Swallow the cancer in a bitter exchange ‘till I cash in this mountain of debt to the angel of death suck my brain through the screen with spiraling eyes living a dream that’s a nightmare in disguise sex, money and drugs feed us all to the pigs here comes the fear of god packing a full clip beam me up through that beautiful light to the fire in the sky take me back to the mothership

You’re that guy, having trouble walking Bumming a smoke and a light Everyone’s ducking and a dodging Cold dead eyes like two piss holes in a snow bank Time to catch a ride before you end up in the drunk tank So please go home you’re drunk You’ve had too much and we’ve had enough You’re gonna’ get punched, piss yourself and throw up So please go home you’re drunk You’re that girl having trouble talking Spinning in circles, playing in everyone’s pockets Bedroom eyes, two devils on your shoulders Hanging on a stranger you won’t recognize in the morning So go home you’re drunk You’ve had too much and we’ve had enough You’re gonna’ get drugged, humped and dumped So please go home you’re drunk It happens to the best of us Sleep it off, you won’t remember much Go eat some Mexican and take your medicine 
10.
Good morning my old pals pounding headache and crippling self doubt Lay there for an hour staring at the wall As it screams and shouts that everything is wrong We built this house, we’ll burn it down Its all hangovers and heartache Its so easy to go through life the hard way Stubborn, drunk and self destructive It feels much better when it’s sung to a sweet melody Bleeding heart, foolish mind Another bottle invested in a long-­‐term suicide I don’t want to die, but who wants to live like this There must be somewhere between happiness and this pitiful shit Lost it a storm, man overboard Drifting away from the safety of shore I can’t let you down if I’m not around I’m not around, I let you down You bring the gas, I’ll light the match Its all hangovers and heartache Why do we go through life the hard way? Tuff love, grudges, push and shoving It sounds much better when you sing I just want to shield your body with mine And tell you everything is fine Find a smile to hide behind 
11.
Did I miss something? Did the world just forget? Did they get away with murder while cashing in the check? Are they still above the law while we scramble in the trench? How long will this go on before the thirst for blood is quenched? Criminals against the free world, a sociopathic chess match with no end We the people want what is equal, justice, slay the beast off with its head Yeah! Is there gonna’ be a purge tonight? Yeah! Will they get what they deserve tonight? The kingdom must be burned to dust We are the hammer of justice Did I hear something? It just another gun shot We scatter at the bottom, divided at the top They’ll send in the squadrons when they finally cut us off Under stress, panic, anxiety from all the pressure trying to make ends meet Don’t be fooled it’s not complicated You’re struggle’s been fabricated We know the truth, it’s a conspiracy If you warship money they you must bow to the tyranny There’s snakes among us wake the fuck up The first world feeds on the third world A systematic death grip around the neck Cheap possesions, mean oppression Extortion, squalor, sanctions war and death Yeah! Are we going rogue tonight? Yeah! We’re gonna’ drag ‘em out their homes tonight There’s no wealth just abstract numbers Thieving frauds with empty banks Arm yourself it doesn’t matter They have choppers, drones and tanks Greed and apathy, all your hard work won’t pay off some day ‘cause you’re not free, you’re a slave and you’ll defend your captors to the grave play the game and play it safe but they can take it all away

Ghost 05:15
Well it’s an odd feeling Wondering if we’ll meet again I think I’ll go for a walk Down to the dive and buy a shot I prefer the company of strangers Because they don’t know why I came here And they can’t see the ghost that followed me in You left me all alone Woke up and you were gone Where did you go, maybe its something I did wrong Your spirit’s hanging on to me I think I’ll tidy up the house a bit Throw some things away, clean out the closet Nothing in here looks the same It’s all a lighter shade of grey Close the window, dim the blinds That world outside isn’t mine I’m locked inside this haunted house you left me all alone woke up and now you’re gone where did you go, what did I do wrong? There’s a hole in my soul Where the laughter still echoes The air is getting cold, I know you’re there Your spirit’s hanging on to me As days go by vague and clouded I find myself wondering what you would do Baby steps, one foot and then the next Was so much easier behind you I spent a couple months just picking up the pieces But every now and then I just forget It’s been a year, same old thing, different day But sometimes at night I leave the light on
