Burn It Down 03:22
I say who's lurking in the dark Show us your scars man Show me how far And oh you think you can dance But when you cut a shape babe You sliver like a snake Do you remember who's the first one to ever make you come so hard you felt like your whole world had come undone When we sin till the sunrise Who's the first one to ever make you shake like the stuff of legends baby I know you like it deep But not always from me? Damn She use to love me but now she's a junky can't be dragging me down no more So I will Burn it down Build again With someone else Who can keep there head You mess around On higher ground Running through heartache baby Get the fuck out of my house You know That I know That he knows Theres something here If you see my baby tell her I've packed up all her stuff Put it in a big brown box and set it on fire in our backyard When her darkness wandered I would shower her with love But my words would rarely work because I was just a mistress to the rock She use to love me but now she's a junky can't be dragging me down no more So I will Burn it down Build again With someone else Who can keep there head You mess around On higher ground Running through heartache baby Get the fuck out of my house So I will Burn it down Build again With someone else Who can keep there head You mess around On higher ground Running through heartache baby Get the fuck out of my house

Jailbound 01:32
Oh well I'm jail bound and I'm going down My mama aint stopped crying since the verdicts out Coz I was drug fucked, pill popping dumb slut Ohh, that bastard judge and jury showed no mercy for me I feel, Alone Yes I feel, Alone Oh well I'm jail bound and I'm going down Those crack-spiders be creepin they'll be licking their lips by now Coz I'm to young and pretty, yes I'm too weak and skinny Do what Sammy says and stay out of it just sit in my cell and widdle a shiv I feel, Alone Yes I feel, Alone

Everything you want to be is easy when its imaginary Following a prophecy in the hope you'll find your God in the Grave Preach to stone to death all the sluts and the faggots If they just got on their knees then baby they could pray to be saved All of your vices, don't be enticed The pathway to freedom is living your life locked in a cage No matter the cut of the cloth it is always corrupt, Suffocate your conscious, shut your mouth and learn to behave You've got your preacher I have my heathens and whores Out on your doorstep Howlin' out for more They always howlin' with me Fuckin' baboons and banshees Cultivate your culture Weed the insanity The world is a hive and we are insects and ants Under a petulant child with a magnifying glass All the corporations ain't even in the A-leagues Our product is invisible and the profits are all tax free You've got your preacher I have my heathens and whores Out on your doorstep Howlin' out for more They always howlin' with me Fuckin' baboons and banshees Cultivate your culture Weed the insanity Kill your imaginary friends Kill your imaginary friends Kill your imaginary friends Kill your imaginary friends Kill your imaginary friends Kill your imaginary friends Kill your imaginary friends Kill your imaginary friends

You resisted opportunity to drink and play was always your plan When you were young you told your mother you were going to play guitar in a band But now you're getting older and the drinking ain't as fun as before All those song and all those gigs you thought would soon pay off and open the doors So you got a job Now work as hard as you can So you got a job Now work as hard as you can You trade your soul to work in management to maybe get a home of your own You start to move on up the ladder because you numbers they are setting the tone You're getting smug you think you're loved you say the girls at work all think you the shit You got the job, the praise, the balance with some time to spare to start getting fit But the mornings getting harder and you're questioning is this really it All your progress takes a turn and all your dreams are just to simply fit in All your dreaming wasn't noticed but the dreams the fuel thats feeding your soul without some wishin' its a mission and admission has now taken its toll So you got a job Now work as hard as you can With all your passion gone All the hatred sinks in With your white picket fence it just makes no sense Life is slowly passing you by So you got a job Now work as hard as you can So you got a job Now work as hard as you can With all your passion gone All the hatred sinks in With your white picket fence it just makes no sense Life is slowly passing you by So you got a job Now work as hard as you can (inaudible growling)
