1. THE REAPING

Hell must know
there have been worse things I've done,
I hold out these hands to receive the sum
Purge these days
Will we accept the things we must?
The world will now learn of change to come...or no world


2. NO WORLD FOR TOMORROW

Wait! There's never been a mess like this.
Oh, no more hands to hold.
When the page turns tomorrow with the hurt to give up.
Curse us as God has (sold us)
Believe me, Hell has no room for your crime.
So beat me, till the blood and the bone finds our end near.

Bye, bye world, or will our hope still hold on?
Boy, you're never going see,
The things that will come of these (days.)
Raise your hands high!
Young brothers and sisters,
There's a world's worth of work and a need for you.
Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing in.
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?

So march to the drumming, show them you're coming.
You've been their play toy.
Cut to the carving,
Bleed them 'til robbing.
Enough! They'll take no more.

You've been given all the power, boy.
Now go and make your move.
Curse us, these Gods, aren't faking.
Have mercy on the cowards, boy.
They'll pray to have you lose.
Help us, this world's now breaking.

So now they've noticed all you've given in sound.
Let us in. Let us in.
Give me love over life, the sweet soft of ground.
Let us in. Let us in now.

Bye, bye world, or will our hope still hold on?
Boy, you're never going see,
The things that will come of these (days.)
Raise your hands high!
Young brothers and sisters,
There's a world's worth of work and a need for you.
Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing in.
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?

So march to the drumming, show them you're coming.
You've been their play toy.
Cut to the carving,
Bleed them 'til robbing.
Enough! They'll take no more.

In the light we'll sing, as all hurt must bring.
In the falling cusp of all broken things.
In the coming dusk, you will call on us and unite we must.
I'm the Crowing!

You all think you've figured me out. Do as I say!
Your words mean nothing at all, so now I lay.
I said, "Come, Momma! Come, Momma! As I need."
I said, "Come, Momma! Come, Momma! We'll watch you bleed."

What did I do to deserve all of this?
What did I do to deserve all of you?

Raise your hands high!
Young brothers and sisters,
There's a world's worth of work and a need for you.
Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing in.
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?

Bye, bye world. Or will our hope still hold on?


3. THE HOUND (OF BLOOD AND RANK)

Was it in the cold of that knife you screwed in the heart of the enduring?
'Cause when you opened that door, you knew, well now, there'd be no returning,
Or room to mourn what we have lost, to wait while the willing.
As you're the hound of blood and rank, and boy you've got another thing coming.

Come on, come on, come on,
You've gotta give it to me,
As though you want it too.
Come on and set me free, yeah.

I'll dig it 'til we've made your grave.
Oh, you've been a bad, bad boy.
I'll cut until I carve it out,
And stick it in a sad, sad song.

Why the bother?
You're no brother,
You're the wrong I need.
Boy, we all found an audience.
While you found the worst of me,
you got another thing.

Put 'em up against the wall, now they're of no use to you.
God, it's time for the curing.
Only your in for that big refuse,
Surprise boy! This tide's come a turning.

No room to mourn what you have lost.
Oh, no waiting while the willing.
Poor little hound of blood and rank,
who deserves every ounce of what's coming.

Come on, come on, come on,
You've gotta give it to me,
As though you want it too.
Come on and set me free, yeah.

I'll dig it 'til we've made your grave.
Oh, you've been a bad, bad boy.
I'll cut until I carve it out,
And stick it in a sad, sad song.

Why the bother?
You're no brother,
You're the wrong I need.
Boy, we all found an audience.
While you found the worst of me,
you got another thing.

Come on, come on, come on,
You've gotta give it to me,
As though you want it too.
Come on and set me free, yeah.

I'll dig it 'til we've made your grave.
Oh, you've been a bad, bad boy.
I'll cut until I carve it out,
And stick it in a sad, sad song.

Why the bother?
You're no brother,
You're the wrong I need.
Boy, we all found an audience.
While you found the worst of me,
you got another thing.

We caught you on the wrong side of lying.
Within the dust we left you dying.
If only words could keep you hiding.
Well, go on, cowards, we've offed you.
Cowards, we've offed you.

(I hope your life's a living hell.)
It's all on you, boy.
(I hope your life's a living hell.)
It's all on you, boy.
(I hope your life's a living hell.)
It's all on you, boy.
(I hope your life's a living hell.)
It's all on you, boy.
(I hope your life's a living hell.)
It's all on you, boy.
(I hope your life's a living hell.)
It's all on you, boy.
(I hope your life's a living hell.)
It's all on you, boy.


4. FEATHERS

History's made its mark in anger.
As everybody knows, it's what we do,
It's nothing new.

The next chords struck are fault and failure
And we both know that finger points on cue,
There's blame for two.

Do you really want him calling, Newo?
Do you really think he's coming back to you?
Oh, once the world stops spinning, read that writing on the wall.

Is there another, Newo?
Is there cushion just enough to break the fall.
Oh, don't you cry.
Just lie there baby in the past, ‘cause if you want it all

Right now, hide your feathers on the back porch, baby.
He's coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar.
Hide your feathers, little back porch lady.
You're too old enough to cry your sorry eyes out over the world.

Hear me scream outside your window.
I'm only here to make my peace with you.
There's something new.

Oh, it was our time, that day in our lives.
If I could do things different what would I choose?
Oh, don't you cry, Mama.
Please, don't cry Mama.
Oh, don't you cry, no, no.

Right now, hide your feathers, on the back porch, baby.
He's coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar.
Hide your feathers, little back porch lady.
You're too old enough to cry your sorry eyes out...

No other, could wait for a lover,
To embrace, boy.
When there's no more room for love,
You'll sell her off to the sharks.
[x2]

Right now, hide your feathers on the back porch, baby.
He's coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar.
Right now, hide your feathers on the back porch, baby.
He's coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar.
(Over the world)

Hide your feathers, little back porch lady.
You're too old enough to cry your sorry eyes out...

Wait a minute, little back porch lady.
Wait a minute, little back porch lady.
I'm in love.
Wait a minute, little back porch lady. (Such a liar.)
Oh, don't you cry, Mama.
Oh, don't you cry, no, no.
Wait a minute, little back porch lady.
Wait a minute, little back porch lady.
I'm in love.
Wait a minute, little back porch lady. (Such a liar.)
Oh, don't you cry, Mama.
Oh, don't you cry, no, no.


5. THE RUNNING FREE

All non-believers stand aside in fear
A new day's marching through the door
How could you ever think you'd make it here?
Did it bleed? Was it sore?
Through the struggles you've endured.

You've come so far from innocence
Provided all the consequence
Only what does it matter now?

Cause you're going home
You're running free
As only you would be if you never owed them anything
And now you've found your way out
In the trust you've seen your path on home

Spend your time well before you go
Here in hell

Your living ends before the engineer
What was your motive in this fight?
(did they play you for the weaker of them?)
How could you ever think you'd make it here?
Was it greed that pushed your heart through the struggles you've endured?

You've come so far from innocence
Provided all the consequence
Only what does it matter now?

Cause you're going home
You're running free
As only you would be if you never owed them anything
And now you've found your way out
In the trust you've seen your path on home

Spend your time well before you go
Here in hell

(There's a hell in all of us)
Spend your time well before you go...
(There's a hell in all of...)
In a lost that's all your own
(There's a hell in all of us)
There are no secrets you can hide
(There's a hell in all of...)
From yourself, in your mind, leave the worst of all behind

Cause you're going home
You're running free
As only you would be if you never owed them anything
And now you've found your way out
In the trust you've seen your path on home

Cause you're going home
You're running free
As only you would be if you never owed them anything
And now you've found your way out
In the trust you've seen your path on home

Spend your time well before you go
Here in hell


6. MOTHER SUPERIOR

Here, sleep at the bottom of hell
Your time has come to pick the road
You walk in this tale.
Turned and as a coward you've learned
Through sickness and health,
There's only one,
Now go and bite your tongue.

You'll just say the worst of me,
With a hope they'll understand.
No, they know you're just a boy.
So grow up and be a man.
Little baby, kicking, you scream and whine
Victims pay the price eventually
The cost? let's see... your life.

You've got nothing to prove, stay afraid.
Young brother, you've got nothing to prove.

Your answer is in there,
Just stare down the barrel.
Your sincerest apologies,
Won't write you out of this one.
Tonight, you'll find the right
In the pull of the trigger, now bite.
Oh young fools, don't cry... anymore.

A fear sleeps inside your stomach,
It swells.
A torn boy alone in need of fix and the pinch that cures the itch.
For too long,
This little baby has cried on.
For tomorrow we'll sing the words and song
Of a time we're glad is long gone.

You'll just say the worst of me,
With a hope they'll understand.
No, they know you're just a boy.
So grow up and be that man.
Little baby, kicking, you scream and whine
Victims pay the price eventually
The cost? let's see... your life.

You've got nothing to prove, stay afraid.
Young brother, you've got nothing to prove.

Your answer is in there,
Just stare down the barrel.
Your sincerest apologies,
Won't write you out of this one.
Tonight, you'll find the right
In the pull of the trigger, now bite.
Oh young fools, don't cry...

Mother superior,
Come catch the rabbit, he runs.
My how've you been?
You're frightened of leaving this truly gone fishing amalgam,
Go fetch your gun.

Your answer is in there,
Just stare down the barrel.
Your sincerest apologies,
Won't write you out of this one.
Tonight, you'll find the right
In the pull of the trigger, now bite.
Oh young fools, don't cry...

Not anymore, don't cry boy
Not anymore, don't cry boy
Not anymore, don't cry boy
When your sick to the stomach
Just pull out the knife, Oh no.

Don't cry boy.
Not anymore, don't cry boy
Not anymore, don't cry boy
When your sick to the stomach
Just pull out the knife, Oh no.


7. GRAVEMAKERS AND GUNSLINGERS

So draw, little piggy, better watch out for number one.
(I fear there's a bad wind blowing through here!)
You better put up the shutters cause Lord knows
Now I ain't stoppin' ‘till the worst gets alive.
Little strutter don't you creep out that fuckin' rut.
(It's best that you don't go walking through there)
Now please a don‘t bother knockin'
Cause God knows I ain't now stopping ‘till you breathe none.

Hey!
What I miss?
We‘re one and the same.

Just give it the push while I kick-start
(There's just no time for this)
Come on! Its just the hurt I'm looking for
I don't wanna live no more
You've got the gun, I've got the bullets.
Don't wanna live no more
Oh baby, be my lover
Go on and pull that trigger!

You're the sin of this city, now repent for the wrong you've done.
(I'm not sorry for this, not sorry at all)
You're a snake under cover
No room for another just these bad motherfuckers.
Leave a long trail of nothing, little bad boy with gun in hand.
(Its best that you don't go walking through there)
Now please a come boy a poppin'
Cause God knows I ain't now stopping ‘till you breathe none.

Hey!
What I miss?
We‘re one and the same.

Just give it the push while I kick-start
(There's just no time for this)
Come on! Its just the hurt I'm looking for
I don't wanna live no more
You've got the gun, I've got the bullets.
Don't wanna live no more
Oh baby, be my lover
Go on and pull that trigger!

Let flood out the weasel's hole, (Oh, Christ will you bury my body?)
To choke out all the lies it's told, (Oh, Christ will you bury my body?)
With time, hope the hurt gets old, (Oh, Christ will you bury my body?)
Let's fuck out the weasel's hole, (Oh, Christ will you bury my body?)

We'll keep marching to the top of this tower.
As God isn't at home. No.
There's nothing in the way that could stop us,
It's your time to go.

Hey!
What I miss?
We‘re one and the same.

Just give it the push while I kick-start
(There's just no time for this)
Come on! Its just the hurt I'm looking for
I don't wanna live no more
You've got the gun, I've got the bullets.
Don't wanna live no more
Oh baby, be my lover
Go on and pull that trigger!

I don't wanna live no more,
Go on and pull that trigger!
Don't wanna live no more,
Be my lover go on and pull that trigger!


8. JUSTICE IN MURDER

Is this the way I want them seeing me?
Please leave your memories at the door.
Why has the world gone off and deserted me?
Why, there's just no room inside these walls.

You want it all,
but did you want it tonight?
Oh you don‘t remember,
As you wait by the light.
Oh, can you see what you've been asking of me?
With the turn of this knife know, I will take your life.

This ain't a crime,
No I'm calling for mercy
Now it's time,
Please pray for me.

There will be justice in murder.
There will be justice in murder.

Now, you've been for me, what no other could be.
Will I now grow old to forget all those.
Blow off sorrow, goodbye tomorrow.

There is no worse than the curse they've given me.
This mule‘s seen it's end in love and war.
I'll wish you best when I'm lost to eternity.
Now do what you will, so it hurts no more.

You want it all,
but did you want it tonight?
Oh you don‘t remember,
As you wait by the light.
Oh, can you see what you've been asking of me?
With the turn of this knife know, I will take your life.

This ain't a crime,
No I'm calling for mercy
Now it's time,
Please pray for me.

There will be justice in murder.
There will be justice in murder.

Now, you've been for me, what no other could be.
Will I now grow old to forget all those.
Blow off sorrow, goodbye tomorrow.

There will be justice in murder.
There will be justice in murder.

Now, you've been for me, what no other could be.
Will I now grow old to forget all those.
Blow off sorrow, goodbye tomorrow.

There will be justice in murder, oh, no, no.
There will be justice in murder.

Now, you've been for me, what no other could be.
Will I now grow old to forget all those.
Blow off sorrow, goodbye tomorrow.


9. THE END COMPLETE I : THE FALL OF HOUSE ATLANTIC

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. [x4]


10. THE END COMPLETE II : RADIO BYE BYE

We're throwing all caution to the wind.
It's better to think about what's ahead, then behind them.
Only I have got a better chance at failure.
But my mind has a clever way of turning all the worst to right, I've found.
Oh, no. So tell them like you did it. No maybes.

We'll leave it on the radio, we're calling all cowards.
Now boy, that you made it so,
Why are you afraid of what you've done?
We'll leave it on the radio, we're calling all cowards.
Now boy, that you made it so,
Why are you afraid of what you've done? No, what you've done? No.

Return to the dirt with this cursed affair.
A lever to pull upon and the buried we'll leave there.
Only how will they ever find their way, to the road, to a better place where the memories,
they don't live to fade away.

Oh, no. So tell them like you did it.
Oh, no. So tell them like you knew.
Ditto. So tell them like you knew. No maybes.

We'll leave it on the radio, we're calling all cowards.
Now boy, that you made it so,
Why are you afraid of what you've done?
We'll leave it on the radio, we're calling all cowards.
Now boy, that you made it so,
Why are you afraid of what you've done?

Like you...
Uh, oh, It's the curse of the radio bye, bye.
Like you...
Uh, oh, It's the curse of the radio bye, bye.
Like you...
Uh, oh, It's the curse of the radio bye, bye.
Like you knew...

Oh no. So tell them like you did it.
Oh, no. So tell them like you knew.
Ditto. So tell them like you knew. No maybes.

We'll leave it on the radio, we're calling all cowards.
Now boy, that you made it so,
Why are you afraid of what you've done?
We'll leave it on the radio, we're calling all cowards.
Now boy, that you made it so,
Why are you afraid of what you've done?
[x2]

We'll leave it on the radio, we're calling all cowards, now...


11. THE END COMPLETE III : THE END COMPLETE

These are the days. The end complete.
The world still turning to the sound of the suffering.
You are the jury, we are the saints.

Our minds divide, the past repeats.
A war still brewing in the hearts of those we once bled.
I am the knowing, the living dead.

Dig deeper, remember
All you've been and all you've left behind.
Wave goodbye, my dear.
Dig deeper, remember
All you've been and all you've left behind.
Welcome home, my dear.

No words to say.
The worst displayed.
What once was courage is now cursed in the hurt we've made.
We are the sinners, before our graves.

Now leave in peace.
The dead unsafe.
A world still turning down the path of the end complete.
Now spite me, jury, we've come for change.

Dig deeper, remember
All you've been and all you've left behind.
Wave goodbye, my dear.
Dig deeper, remember
All you've been and all you've left behind.
Welcome home, my dear.

Momma, I'm living proof that never,
Is just around the corner.
A ghost to walk the end designed for you and I.

No one will ever know.
No one will ever know.

(We are the fate of Heaven
The call of Justice
We are now waiting while you wish us away
With your plans in all deliverance
Won't take us over, baby

GOD, He will not save you
IS NOT, He will not save you
HERE! He will not save you from this

GOD, He will not save you
IS NOT, He will not save you
HERE! He will not save you from this

You've been stealing my lines,
Now go on living your lies,
For on your knees you will find,
You'll face a jury in hell.)
[x2]

These were the days. The end complete.
The world is burning to the sound of the suffering.
You are the jury, we are the saints.

Dig deeper, remember
All you've been and all you've left behind.
Wave goodbye, my dear.
Dig deeper, remember
All you've been and all you've left behind.
Welcome home, my dear.

You were the magic, that turned a curse in time.
You were the beauty, that we had to leave behind.
Oh, no. No, no. Bye-bye.

We're going to get you, my love.
We're going to get you, my love.

Oh, no. Let your rabbit go run.
Oh, no. Let your rabbit go run.

We're going to get you, my love.
We're going to get you, my love.

Oh, no. Let your rabbit go run.
Oh, no. Let your rabbit go run.

We're going to get you...


12. THE END COMPLETE IV : THE ROAD AND THE DAMNED

I believed, in the world right in front of me,
But now, along these empty streets.
Where this curse haunts these memories,
Of a man and all he's lost.

No time to think about it. No room to breathe.

If I had a way back, I'd ride through the dark and the dawn
(But please don't wait for me)
Because the man you love don't live anymore.
I can't go home again.

Tonight you'll sleep.
No fear of what might become of me, my dear.
Within these end of days,
Where this longing turns this man to prey
On a love that yearns to die.

No time to live and doubt it
Girl, I'm worth the second chance. (What have I done?)
No time to think about it, no room to breathe.

If I had a way back, I'd ride through the dark and the dawn
(But please don't wait for me)
Because the man you love don't live anymore.
I can't go home again.

I believed in the world once in front of me, well now that's gone.

If I had a way back, I'd ride through the dark and the dawn
(But please don't wait for me)
Because the man you love don't live anymore.
I can't go home again.
[x2]

Bye, goodbye. Bye, goodbye
Bye, goodbye, bye. Bye goodbye, my dear.


13. THE END COMPLETE V : ON THE BRINK

The worlds have now learned of the worst yet to come.
On the brink of an end, a boy learns to run.
How you love, or could you, Mr. Man of the Year?
Walking tall with nothing to fear.

Don't pass up this chance,
Oh, go tear down the walls.
No Gods will be watching, no one cares enough at all.

These words need now an ending, as they did at the start.
But I'll keep on pretending,
I won't go.

Don't cry no more, boy.
You've got the other side of your life, so enjoy.
I'll move out the front door,
And take out your trash,
But I'll no longer be haunting here,
I'm not coming back.

The world must know my story,
So long Amory.
Please drive me home one last time.

Hail! [x57]
