1. THE GUNSLING

Yeah...

When sun sets dusk and streets are cleared,
This town's renegade is near.
Standing tall, awaiting host,
What's it like to see a ghost?
Both outlaws equal, yes indeed,
A one shot rhythm to the gunsling
So long my sweet.
Bye Bye.

Standin' alone in soot and stone,
He draws from this holster, a man.
Crawlin' alone through the soot and stone,
He makes his way home half to death.

He clenched his fist and said a prayer,
For every breath of dusty air.
He fires loud, the end is close,
What's it like to be a ghost?
Both outlaws equal, yes indeed,
A one shot rhythm to the gunsling,
So long my sweet.

I hear those voices calling...
"Take your life"
I cannot take this lying down...
No!

Standin' alone in soot and stone,
He draws from this holster, a man.
Crawlin' alone through the soot and stone,
He makes his way home half to death.

In time. In vain.
I wash my hands of yesterday.
If I should fall,
If I should pass,
It's worth one last stand before the gates of hell!

I hear those voices calling...
"Take your life"
I cannot take this lying down...
No!

Standin' alone in soot and stone,
He draws from this holster, a man.
Crawlin' alone through the soot and stone,
He makes his way home half to death.

In time. In vain.
I wash my hands of yesterday.
If I should fall,
If I should pass,
It's worth one last stand before the gates of hell!


2. THE MORTICIAN'S DAUGHTER

I open my lungs dear,
I sing this song at funerals ... No rush.
These lyrics heard a thousand times, just plush.
A baby boy you've held so tightly, this pain it visits almost nightly.
Missing hotel beds I feel your touch.

I will wait dear,
A patient of eternity, my crush.
A universal still, No rust.
No dust will ever grow in this frame,
One million years I will say your name.
I love you more than I can ever scream.

We booked our flight those years ago,
I said I love you as I left you.
Regrets still haunt my hollow head,
But I promised you I will see you again, again.

I sit here and smile dear,
I smile because I think of you, I blush.
These bleeding hollow dials... This fuss.
A fuss is made of miles and travels when roadways are but stones and gravel.
A bleeding heart can conquer every crutch.

We booked our flight those years ago,
You said you loved me as you left me.
Regrets still haunt your saddened head but
I promised you I will see you.
We booked our flight those years ago,
I said I loved you and I left you.
Regrets no longer in my head,
But I promised you and now I'm home again, again, again, again, again.

I'm home again


3. WE STITCH THESE WOUNDS

You kissed the lips of evil, two months its all the same
You begged for this man's approval, like all the rest you'll die in vain.
Sit down this wont take long now,
Off my chest these lyrics came.
Your words they eat right through me,
Heartbreaks your favorite pain.

The tears we've cried,
This love has died your by yourself here tonight
It's what we hide,
With every lie your by yourself (here tonight)

I think of it each time i touch you,
Every time I hear his name.
I'll never let my fucking walls down,
For all of this you are to blame.
Sit down this wont take long now,
Off my chest these lyrics came.
Your words they eat right through me,
Heartbreaks your favorite pain.

The tears we've cried,
This love has died your by yourself here tonight
It's what we hide,
With every lie your by yourself (here tonight)
The tears we've cried I'm by your side, your by yourself.
It's what we hide with every lie,
Your by yourself (here tonight)

We stitch these wounds (x4)

The tears we've cried,
This love has died your by yourself here tonight
It's what we hide,
With every lie your by yourself (here tonight)
The tears we've cried I'm by your side, your by yourself.
It's what we hide with every lie,
Your by yourself (here tonight)

Liar (x9)


4. KNIVES AND PENS

Alone at last, we can sit and fight.
And I've lost all faith in this blurring light,
But stay right here we can change our plight.
We're storming through this despite what's right.

One final fight, for this tonight.
Woah...
With knives and pens we made our plight.

Lay your heart down the ends in sight.
Conscience begs for you to do what's right.
Everyday it's still the same dull knife,
Stab it through and justify your pride.

One final fight, for this tonight.
Woah...
With knives and pens we made our plight.
Woah...
And I can't go on without your love, you lost, you never held on.
We tried out best... Turn out the light,
Turn out the light.

One final fight, for this tonight.
Woah...
With knives and pens we made our plight.
Woah...
And I can't go on without your love, you lost, you never held on.
We tried out best... Turn out the light,
Turn out the light.
