1. Scorched

Way down deep in the fire
Way down deep in the flame
Way down deep in the hole I dug
Way down deep in the pain

I’m a flash in your atmosphere
Atomic wind blowing into your night
Crash and burn, let me make it clear
And give ’em just a little light

Will you miss me when I’m gone?
Will you kiss me at rebirth?
Will you miss me dead and gone?
Gone to scorch the earth

Scorch the earth, scorch your brain
Scorch your dreams and what remains
Scorch the good, scorch the bad
The best damn firestorm you ever had

Scorch the earth and your brain
Scorch your dreams and what remains
Scorch the good, scorch the bad
The best damn firestorm you ever had

Way up there in the heavens
Way up beyond the sky
Way up there where God looks down
Way up where I get high

Will you miss me when I’m gone?
Will you kiss me at rebirth?
Will you miss me dead and gone?
Gone to scorch the earth

Scorch the earth, scorch your brain
Scorch your dreams and what remains
Scorch the good, scorch the bad
The best damn firestorm you ever had

Scorch the earth and your brain
Scorch your dreams and what remains
Scorch the good, scorch the bad
The best damn firestorm you ever had

Speak to me in my own tongue
Scorch the earth, all the land, my son
Hide your face in the veil of shame
Keep cracking the whip and bringing the pain

Speak to me in my own tongue
Scorch the earth, all the land, my son
Speak to me in my own tongue
Scorch the earth, all the land, my son

Scorch the earth, scorch your brain
Scorch your dreams, scorch what remains
Scorch the good, scorch the bad
The best damn firestorm you ever had

Scorch the earth and your brain
Scorch your dreams and what remains
Scorch the good and the bad
The best damn firestorm you ever had

Scorching the earth
Scorching the earth
Scorching the earth

2. Goin’ Home

Die, the endless death, the price upon your head
In the ranks of the walking dead
Fly up to the sun while searching for your soul
We thought we never would grow old

Wherever you go, wherever you been
Whenever you try, whenever you win
However you stand, however you fall
Wherever you land, take me to die with

There a thousand broken pieces from the pound
Lost the heart stays underground
There a thousand shattered pieces lay face down
To close the eyes, already blind, we’re going home

Rise above the low, that hatred, end the deal
Rise above all that you feel
And know above all else, from day one if you dare
Know I always will be there

There, a thousand broken pieces from the pound
Lost, the heart stays underground
There, a thousand shattered pieces lay face down
To close the eyes, already blind, we’re going home
We’re going home
We’re going home

Wherever you go, wherever you’ve been
Whatever you try, whatever you win
However you stand, however you fall
Wherever you land

The suffering
To choose the life
The suffering
To make it right
And all of the flashes that light up your night
The suffering
To choose the life
The suffering
To make it right

There, a thousand broken pieces from the pound
Lost, the heart stays underground
There, a thousand shattered pieces lay face down
To close the eyes, already blind, we’re going home
We’re going home
We’re going home

3. The Surgeon

Bleeding for the martyr, we were bleeding for the Pope
We were bleeding for the victim, we were bleeding for the dope
We were bleeding for the felon as he tried to catch his breath
And the motherfucker cried out (Bleed till death)
There was blood upon the window, there was blood upon the floor
There was blood upon the shaking hand the hand that locked the door
We were bleeding for the children as I tried to catch my breath
And the motherfucker cries out (Bleed till death)

Don’t break my concentration, don’t break my back in two
One steady hand fixation, one cut bleed all over you
Don’t break my concentration
Don’t break my back in two

I am the surgeon, I am the face of fear
I cut your dreams away, and long to hold you near
I am the surgeon, I never shed a tear
I am the surgeon and I long, I long, long to hold you near

We were killing for the people, we were killing for the state
We were killing just for killing, and we did it out of hate
We were killing for the innocent, the guilty catch their breath
Then the motherfucker cries out (Kill till death)
There were bodies in the garden, there were bodies on the street
There was carnage, beg ya pardon and a body at my feet
We were killing for the innocent, the guilty catch their breath
Then the motherfucker cries out (Kill till death)

Don’t break my concentration, don’t break my back in two
One steady hand fixation, one cut bleed all over you

I am the surgeon, I am the face of fear
I cut your dreams away, and long to hold you near
I am the surgeon, I never shed a tear
I am the surgeon and I long, I long, long to hold you near

Bleed out in the morning, in the morning air (Bleed out, bleed out)
Bleed out in the afternoon, in the evening I don’t care (Bleed out)
The world stops on its axis, in the face of fear (Bleed out, bleed out)
And I can’t feel your heartbeat now, when I hold you near (Bleed out)

Bleed out, in the morning air (Bleed out, bleed out)
Bleed out, in the evening I don’t care (Bleed out, bleed out)

I am the surgeon, I am the face of fear
I cut away your dreams, and long to hold you near
I am the surgeon, I never shed a tear
I am the surgeon and I long, I long, long to hold you near

4. Twist of the Wick

As far as the naked eye could see
Laid out right in front of me, make me sick
So I twist the wick
Then in perfect harmony
The universe did swallow me, so quick
So I twist the wick

Making me sick, moving so quick, time to move on
Twist of the wick, twist of the wick

Standing tall for one and all
And all your dreams come true
Behind the wall, the savage call
The evil that men do

Say it’s all over, say it’s all right
Say it’s all over, in the face of fear or flight

God bless the hypocrisy
The lies in the mouth of lunacy
Get a lick
So I twist the wick
Far from the madding crowd and me
Cloaked in plain dishonesty, make it stick
So I twist the wick

Making me sick, moving so quick, time to move on
Twist of the wick, twist of the wick

Standing tall for one and all
And all your dreams come true
Behind the wall, the savage call
The evil that men do

Say it’s all over, say it’s all right
Say it’s all over, in the face of fear
In the face of fear or flight

Standing tall for one and all
And all your dreams come true
Behind the wall, the savage call
The evil that men do

Say it’s all over, say it’s all right
Say it’s all over, in the face of fear or flight

Twist of the wick
Twist of the wick
Twist of the wick
Twist of the wick, twist of the wick

5. Wicked Place

Good book, handgun, cigarettes, light me up, I’ll smoke my fill
Menthol Juliette pirouettes, her arm around me keeps me chill
Shakin’ like a small block motor mount baby
Droolin’ on your windowsill
Shakin’ like a big block, eight count standin’
The injury will likely kill
No good solution, when the water’s high
Just close your eyes and say goodbye
Hip flask, hollow point, mountain top, raisin’ up my arms to the sky
Bloodlust, bureaucrat, pop-pop-pop, with this injury you’re likely to die
Shakin’ like a fat man sittin’ in the sauna, feel the sweat runnin’ off of my face
Shakin’ like a small block motor mount baby
Welcome to this wicked place
No good solution, when the water’s high
Just close your eyes and say goodbye
No good solution, with your sad, sad face
tell me what would bring you
To this wicked place
Hey, do you recognize the lines across your face
Hey, tell me what would bring you to this wicked place
Hey, will you hold me back or leave without a trace
Hey, tell me what would bring you to this wicked place

6. Won’t Be Comin’ Back

Can I get another minute with you?
It seems the heart is full of hate and death and war
And can I get a little leather to chew?
It seems my head is full, my mouth just wants to roar

Lightnin’ strikin’ my barren plane
Electric currents run through my brain

All for one or naught, a penny for your thoughts
Won’t be comin’ back this way
Eat to get your fill, so take now what you will
Won’t be comin’ back this way

Hey, I’m flyin’ high, into that angry sky
I got a feelin’ that we won’t be comin’ back this way
Hey, I’m flyin’ high, ride up till we die
I got a feelin’ that we won’t be comin’ back this way
Won’t be comin’ back this way
Won’t be comin’ back this way

And if I had another minute to live
I’d wash the seconds down with flight, and I would soar
And if I had another two-fucks to give
I’d fill the air with sound and sweat from every pore

Wrong or rightin’ the endless game
Steadfast fightin’ the scorn, the blame

All for one or naught, a penny for your thoughts
Won’t be comin’ back this way
Eat to get your fill, so take now what you will
Won’t be comin’ back this way

Hey, I’m flyin’ high, into that angry sky
I got a feelin’ that we won’t be comin’ back this way
Yeah, we’re flyin’ high, ride up till we die
I got a feelin’ that we won’t be comin’ back this way
Won’t be comin’ back this way
Won’t be comin’ back this way

Hey, I’m flyin’ high, into that angry sky
I got a feelin’ that we won’t be comin’ back this way
Hey, I’m flyin’ high, ride up till we die
I got a feelin’ that we won’t be comin’ back this way
Won’t be comin’ back this way
Won’t be comin’ back this way

Won’t be comin’ back
Won’t be comin’ back
Won’t be comin’ back
Won’t be comin’ back
This way

7. Fever

Hold on, we’re coming to save you from yourself
Hold on, we’ll be right there, you don’t need no one else
We’ll be there from birth to death, record your first and dying breath
Hold on, we’re coming, yeah, to save you from yourself

Fever
Way over the rainbow, you drink poison from the well
I feel the chains around my spirit and only time will tell

Hold on, we’re coming to set your spirit free
Hold on, we’ll be right there, so you can follow me from yourself

Fevеr
Far from home illusions, as far as I can tell
The voicеs of confusion halt me, send the voices straight to hell
Keep your body still while your hands are shakin’
Way over the rainbow
Keep your pockets full while the man is takin’
Keep the chamber full while the shots are rakin’
Bangin’ on your head while your bones are breakin’
Poison from the the well
I feel the chains around my spirit
And only time will tell

3/12/20, all shot down
And I don’t know if I believe her
Two-thirds money wear the crown
And I don’t even know I believe it myself
We call it fever
Fever, fever, fever
We call it fever
Fever, fever, fever
We call it fever

3/13, and shut my mouth
As the heat and the sweat deceive her
Flies to honey, out the south
And I don’t even know I believe it myself
We call it fever
Fever, fever, fever
We call it fever
Fever, fever, fever
We call it fever

Hold on, we’re coming, hold on, we’ll be right there for you
Hold on, we’re coming, hold on, there’s nothing more to do

8. Harder They Fall

Ice water flowing through his veins
Rumor has it that it comes and goes in waves
The face of fear, baby, he’s your man
With evil inside the heart, he does the best he can
The best he can

And so it goes, he’s already dead
A monument to the neon red
And so it goes to the lost and found
And so it goes when he comes around
And you want it, you need it
You got to, got to, got to, got to have it

Harder they come, harder they fall
When he comes around, it’s always harder they fall
Harder they come, harder they fall
Here he comes again, and yeah he’s hitting the wall
Harder they come, harder they fall

Saddle up the horseman’s reigns
Rumor has it that he rides the road he paves
He’ll be there in a handmade crown
He’ll be there when it’s time to come around, breakdown

And so it goes, he is never seen
A monument to the neon green
And so it goes when you’re underground
And so it goes when he comes around

And you want it, you need it
You got to, got to, got to, got to have it

Harder they come, harder they fall
When he comes around, it’s always harder they fall
Harder they come, harder they fall
Here he comes again, and yeah, he’s hitting the wall
When he comes around, it’s always harder they fall
Here he comes again, and now he’s hitting the wall
Harder they come, harder they fall

He wants a table with his back to the door
Facing the mirror from the ceiling to floor
He wants the window cracked to feel the fresh air
He wants to feel like he’s the only one there
When he comes around
When he comes around

So it goes, he’s already dead
A monument to the neon red
And so it goes to the lost and found
So it goes when he comes around
And you want it, got it
Got to, got to, got to, got to have it
And you want it, you need it
Got to, got to, got to, got to have it

Harder they come, harder they fall
When he comes around, it’s always harder they fall
Harder they come, harder they fall
Here he comes again, and now he’s hitting the wall
When he comes around, it’s always harder they fall
Here he comes again, and now he’s hitting the wall
Harder they come, harder they fall
Here he comes again, and now it’s harder they fall
Harder they fall

9. Know Her Name

Hold me in your loving arms, the powder blast did take away my eyes
Hold me in the bosom of the love I bleed, for she is no surprise
I’ll wrap my arms around her, squeeze so tight, I’ll pop the eyes out of her head
I’ll wrap my arms around her, squeeze so tight and I won’t let go till she’s dead
Till she’s dead

Give it just a little more, liberty is out the door

If not too much to mention between sanity and blame
With all the best intentions, do you know her name?
Do you know her name? She absorbs the pain
In the coldest cold of all your winters, history remains
Do you know her name?

Shelter me from danger, from the coldest hearts that wish that we would die
Protect me from the wolves, keep them at bay, until the next height of our rise
I’ll wrap my arms around her, squeeze so tight, till every drop of blood has bled
I’ll wrap my arms around her, hold her tight until our enemies are dead
Till they’re dead

One, two, three, four, liberty is out the door

If not too much to mention between sanity and blame
With all the best intentions, do you know her name?
Do you know her name? She absorbs the pain
In the coldest cold of all your winters, history remains
Do you know her name?

So sow the seeds of hate
The clock strikes half past three
The longer that we’ll wait
The clock strikes half past late
So deep inside the fray
No matter what they say
To fight another day
To find another way
Find another way

If not too much to mention between sanity and blame
With all the best intentions, do you know her name?
Do you know her name?
Do you know her name?
Do you know her name? She absorbs the pain
Do you know her name?
In the coldest cold of all your winters, history remains
Do you know her name?

10. Bag o’ Bones

Fought across the border wars, fought across our destiny
We shot across the the stratosphere, the thin air bothered me
I looked around that whole damn place for somewhere to lay my head
Then a man in the hood come shoulder me said, “You wishin’ you was dead?”

Shake your bag o’ bones when nobody’s home
Shake your bag o’ bones and you’ll never be alone
Move your head with the dancin’ dead, get in the game and play
Shakе your bones wherevеr you roam, be the one who got away, hey

Alright
Yeah, shake it
Whoa

Long way from home wherever you may roam
Take along and shake that bag o’ bones

I packed my shit and headed east where the sun was set to rise
They sent me west with all their best no disgrace, compromise
I looked around that whole damn place while the sun set on my face
Then the man in the hood, come shoulder me, said, “You come for another taste, boy?”

Shake your bag o’ bones when nobody’s home
Shake your bag o’ bones and you’ll never be alone
Move your head with the dancin’ dead, get in the game and play
Shake your bones wherever you roam, be the one who got away, hey

Long way from home wherever you may roam
Take along and shake that bag o’ bones
Long way from home and you’ll never be alone
Take along and shake that bag o’ bones

Keeping my pace, the long winding road
Grab that bag of bones, now shake it
Grab that bag of bones, now shake it
Sun on my face, the road full of holes
Grab that bag of bones, now shake it
Grab that bag of bones, now shake it

All of his horses, all of his men
All of his bones together again
All of his bones are together again

Shake your bag o’ bones when nobody’s home
Shake your bag o’ bones and you’ll never be alone
Move your head with the dancin’ dead, get in the game and play
Shake your bones wherever you roam, be the one who got away, hey

That’s right
Shake, shake it
Shake, shake

Long way from home wherever you may roam
Take along and shake that bag o’ bones
Long way from home and you’ll never be alone
Take along and shake that bag o’ bones

Shake
Shake it
Shake
