1.	Medicine Head 03:23	lyrics	buy track
Pleased to meet me Whats my medicine of choice tonight Crash in the alley or avoid a drowning at the riverwalk Chorus Time flies like a butterfly Floating from room to room All in the dead of night No way out but through All those High Times Vision in widescreen floating While Space and Time Collide Sink and Bend drift and fall to PFs echoes Chorus Time flies like a butterfly Floating from room to room All in the dead of night No way out but through All those High Times

What are you waiting for, We will not be here forever They’ve found you, In your own words And their sighs repeat never ending You stood on the Precipice Aching for adventure Just one misstep your head over heals to tumble on forever Chorus Run from the light, Thriving in the shadows Succumb to the life of living as a phantom Resist the temptation To walk among the Retched They’ll drown you with your own words While you tumble on forever
3.	Back Then 04:11	lyrics	buy track
I’m down again, I’ve got me wrong Minded friend And there’s no use remaining or remembering The cast of friends Comes and goes If your with me still Remaining and remembering Chorus Oh back then, I was always over the line and into the red The years have not been kind and the words are hard to find When you become the person you’ve always had in mind The sound of Prince Is always a welcome friend Yet there’s no use Remaining and remembering Chorus Oh back then, I was always over the line and into the red The years have not been kind and the words are hard to find When you become the person you’ve always had in mind chorus Oh back then, I was always over the line and into the red The years have not been kind and the words are hard to find When you become the person you’ve always had in mind
4.	Blind Obedience 03:48	lyrics	buy track
Heave Ho Hold Steady Get the Noose Ready The Glutton summons the Mob Red Face and Squealing You stole my Country Your Messiah demands More Chorus Blind Obedience X 2 The Sad Con your believing to please the tyrant Craven to the core No brain is needed He speaks you listen Your messiah demands Blood Blind Obedience x 2 Heave Ho Hold Steady Get the Noose Ready I’m ready to go Blind Obedience
5.	Richard Ramirez 04:39	lyrics	buy track
Red Looks Black Under the Moonlight Dressed in the Gore of your Victims Blood Who was that Boy with a tombstone for a pillow Oh Jesus Hates the man You’ve become See through the eyes of the villain Sing with the voice of the Devil Dance on the Graves of your victims Knock on wood to raise the fiend within you Draw the 5 pointed star on your palm Who was that boy with the keys to the underworld Oh Jesus Hates the Man you’ve become Think with the mind of a killer Stand on his hooves so Devine You will Bleed and cry while he smiles Speak with no soul like the fallen The beast is your art and your eyes Take your cues from the devil And rise
6.	Cosmic Station 03:31	lyrics	buy track
Standing up at the deep end of the world Looking out at the violent and septic expanse The Cannibals starting holy wars For we have failed us, Failed us Chorus When in doubt go beyond the physical realm Embrace the Chaos renounce my humanity We have failed us Get Sown with needle and thread Stitch and and fashion your demons There is beauty in rot and decay That’s how nature reclaims us Chorus When in doubt go beyond the physical realm Embrace and reign in Chaos renounce my humanity We have failed us
7.	Better Not Say No 03:08	lyrics	buy track
Deny My Words again Surely, My threats are immenant Back and Forth we go Pre Chorus Ahhh Ha ah hah ha What can you do for me, what will you do for me Take my offerings But I can teach you with my words again Back and forth we go Pre Chorus Ahhh Ha ah hah ha What can you do for me, what will you do for me You take more than you give I can reach you with my outstretched hands Back and Forth Pre Chorus Ahhh Ha ah hah ha What can you do for me, what will you do for me Better Not Say no
8.	The Siren 03:31	lyrics	buy track
Black and White Thinker Always Eager Moon light Dances back thru your lens Love without action is just a word then Can we just stand by Do we not dance Chorus We Burn away all the Days On our Islands We sunbathe in the Haze Our terrible decay Your Broken Hearted Is how we started Burn and shine son Light a candle Chorus We Burn away all the Days On our Islands We sunbathe in the Haze Theres nothing after this We Burn away all the Days On and Island We sunbathe in the Haze Our terrible decay
9.	Rottentot 04:13	lyrics	buy track
What is your point here I think you’ve lost the thread So you picked up a rifle to collect some heads Is it worth the Head Lines when it goes up in Flames All those innocent victims that got in my Chorus I’m going to burn you to the ground I can End you with my Gun With God On my side I need answer to None I believe in your right friend defend your family and home But you seem to create problems with only one solution Stand by your words leave your guns at home Anything less is cowardice Chorus I’m going to burn you to the ground I can End you with my Gun With God On my side I need answer to None Chorus I’m going to burn you to the ground I can End you with my Gun With God On my side I need answer to None
10.	The Fires of Our Discontent 03:28	lyrics	buy track
The green of the forests fade to brown And then erupt in red On the Hills comes a promise to be devoured Eaten whole, nothing left Chorus Deep wounds and shallow breaths The burning of books by the Vigilantes Your Choice will be over turned The Red and violent alarm The landlocked is a roiling mass where The fires of discontent rage I can taste the bitter ashes So I retreat within myself Chorus Deep wounds and shallow breaths The Burning of books by the Vigilantes Your choice will be over turned The red and violent alarm Deep wounds and shallow breaths The burning of books by the Vigilantes Your choice will be over turned The Red and violent alarm
