When they catch you with the gun in your hand You’ll never see the sunrise again Starve Yeah, you say that I live on the fringe Did your savior complex run thin? You call me a criminal But I’m just in this shit to win I don’t pray like the innocent man I get by on wages of sin I’m a criminal mama Just look at what you did When you put the gun in my hand Starve. The soul leaves the body. There’s no forgiveness Pray to the western sunrise Show me the man and I’ll show you what he’s done You’re a criminal Just look at what you’ve done Now they’re coming to find you You’ll never see the sun Lock me deep in the dungeon Throw away the key I only did what I had to But I know it’s not just me I’ll put you to death Make your soul leave your body I’m no innocent man I’m a criminal baby but you put the gun in my There’s no forgiveness Pray to the western sunrise Show me the man and I’ll show you what he’s done Let’s stop pretending There’s still a western sunrise At the end of a gun Just look what we’ve become And we’ll never see the sun ‘cause you put the gun in my hand Starve We’re all criminals God save us from ourselves I’m a criminal And I prey on the innocent man Just look at what you’ve done

Don't understand why all these people give a shit I can't seem to feel the same My life is all slipped discs and cartilage worn to bone But I got chemicals to ease the pain It's not existential We're all in debt cause there's a price to pay My broke ass can't afford it Tell the angels I'm absent when they call my name When that ship sets sail It's never coming back Tell me who survives When the hellbirds fly they make the sky turn black Cause they don't care where they go when they die You see the hellbirds fly? We're out Don't ask that question baby, if you don't want no answer I'd rather die, I'd rather die Pastors, bishops, and priests Those dirty pricks rape babies I only fuck with the devil man, his shit goes crazy You think we're underground but we come from pure air Like the voices you talk to Nobodies There to count your blessings baby Even though your god can't save me I've been so obsessed with hating Maybe you are too All our lives a fucking lie but whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do I got nothing to die for So I wanna get higher On the wings of a bird Tell your god who he prays to Cheap tricks and mysterious ways The secrets way out This can't be what it means Tell me what it means And when the ships set sail They're never coming back You see the hellbirds fly? Tell me who survives When the skies turn black And we don't care where we go when we die We don't care, we don't care So let the hellbirds fly Fuck it I'd rather die in war than in a pile of cancer I'd rather die, I'd rather die So let the hellbirds fly We're out

Can you see it? Believe me that Our dreams will orbit the earth forever My heroes left me here in 1917 I fear To ponder and perform The religion of dogs of war But I can only lift that cup long enough to fill my mouth We’ll suffer, and scorn Another 800 billion suckers born And it ain’t lost on me (see it) That code is all I’m gonna be (believe it) But our dreams will orbit the earth forever Oh yeah I got ‘em bad Got them suborbital blues baby Existence Is oh so temporary (I’ve got my feet on the ground) We’ve all been waiting (waiting to escape this world) This obsession (will) Digitize perceptions Save us (save us) We live forever (save me from that hole in the ground) But now I’m light as a feather Just ones n zeros Is this heaven? I don’t feel I don’t think Just want St. Peter to let me in Because my sea is a black sea And the air is trying to kill me Oh god save me Now they’re dragging out the bodies To dig their holes in the ground again Throw your children to the sky See the widowed mothers crying again Tell me what will you do? (What will you do?) Yeah have you heard the news? I don’t think we’re gonna make It (what will you do?) Because government is coming for you. Do you see it? Believe in it? (Launch me into orbit) Our dreams will orbit the earth forever The dead they speak to me Told me you can’t break free But they don’t see What I’ve seen So I tell them how it’s gonna Tell me can you see it (see) I don’t believe it (believe it) When our dreams will orbit the earth forever
