1. TRAIN OF CONSEQUENCES

I'm doing you a favor
As i'm taking all your money
I guess i should feel sorry
But i don't even trust me
There's bad news creeping up
And you feel a sudden chill
How do you do? my name is 'trouble'
I'm coming in for the kill
And you know i will

Set the ball a-rolling
I'll be clicking off the miles
On the train of consequences
My boxcar life of style
My thinking is derailed
I'm tied up to the tracks
The train of consequences
There ain't no turning back

No horse ever ran as fast
As the money that you bet
I'm blowing on my cards
And play them to my chest
Life's fabric is corrupt
Shot through with corroded thread
As for me i hocked my brains
Packed my bags and headed west
I hocked my brains, headed west

Set the ball a-rolling
I'll be clicking off the miles
On the train of consequences
My boxcar life of style
My thinking is derailed
I'm tied up to the tracks
The train of consequences
There ain't no turning back

Set the ball a-rolling
I'll be clicking off the miles
On the train of consequences
My boxcar life of style
My thinking is derailed
I'm tied up to the tracks
The train of consequences
There ain't no turning back


2. SYMPHONY OF DESTRUCTION (GRISTLE MIX)

You take a mortal man
And put him in control
Watch him become a god
Watch people's heads a-roll

Just like the pied piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the symphony of destruction

Acting like a robot
Its metal brain corrodes
You try to take its pulse
Before the head explodes

Just like the pied piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the symphony of destruction

The earth starts to rumble
World powers fall
A-warring for the heavens
A peaceful man stands tall

Just like the pied piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the symphony of destruction


3. SKIN O' MY TEETH (LIVE)

I had wrists donning slits
Flowing constantly
My broken body in a wreck
Wrapped around a tree
A crosswalk hit-and-run
The finish line for me
People clutter in the gutter
Take a look and see

No escaping pain
You belong to me
Clinging on to life
By the skin of my teeth

My blood flows through the streets
Deluge from the wounds
Empty jars of sleeping pills
On the dresser of my room
My wet-brained neighbor cranes
His neck to see
In time the white light's a train
Bearing down on me

No escaping pain
You belong to me
Clinging on to life
By the skin of my teeth

I won't feel the hurt
I'm not trash any longer
That, that doesn't kill me
Only makes me stronger
I need a ride to the morgue
That's what 911 is for
So tag my toe and don't forget
To close the drawer

No escaping pain
You belong to me
Clinging on to life
By the skin of my teeth
