Soulless Hymns

One step in the wrong direction Face down in the dirt You'll never know You'll never change You'll never grow So run in place as the world turns over Coward mind, chameleon skin A walking cancer singing soulless hymns Speak of the devil, I think we're alone No, we're never alone As a matter of fact This is the price you pay So pay up And it's never enough And you will never see It's not in you It's not inside of me Is that comforting? "Only in a world this shitty could you even try to say these were innocent people and keep a straight face. But that's the point." Shout out to the life you lead Superstition can't answer your sins Afraid to move Follow the rules Who are you trying to fool? One step in the wrong direction Face down in the dirt You'll never know You'll never change You'll never grow So run in place as the world turns over The doubt in you exists No way of faking it The doubt in you exists No way of faking it Nothing to prove Convinced of the truth, what's left to do? Nothing to prove Nothing to prove Convinced of the truth, what's left to do? Nothing to prove What's left of you? One step in the wrong direction Face down in the dirt You'll never know You'll never change You'll never grow So run in place as the world turns over

Think outside the box Then burn it and smile while the wind blows the ashes off Towards the ideas that have been locked away They've been waiting to come out and play your whole life That's all she wrote There's no turning back now A thinking man is never a slave Fire and brimstone will be held over your head Refuse to fall to your knees like the rest Your eyes start to shine! I know you feel it now! Everything changes when the shackles break Tell the others Pass it on Lead the way Don't let them kill the world with the threat of a shallow grave Turn this world Upside down Turn this world Upside down A thinking man is never a slave Don't let them kill the world with the threat of a shallow grave A thinking man is never a slave Fire and brimstone will be held over your head Refuse to fall to your knees like the rest Think outside the box Then burn it and smile while the wind blows the ashes off Towards the ideas that have been locked away They've been waiting to come out and play your whole life "Haven't you just wondered about God, ever?" "Well yeah, everybody wonders about God every now and then, it's just that some of us don't dwell on it, you know. I give it a place. I believe what I believe." Turn this world Upside down Turn this world Upside down Refuse to fall to your knees like the rest

Shadows form into hands and dance like scissors across the top of the van Intoxicated by the fever that builds and the hospital pill I am free of this world Shadows form into hands and dance like scissors across the top of the van Intoxicated by the fever that builds and the hospital pill I am free of this world North of Corpus five inches from the Sun Spilling out at both ends Feeling like a dead man I spent the day Painting all the pavement With pink and scum Daydreaming that My father is breathing Count to ten then run First thing I'll do is scribble out the Sun Cut the ceiling let it spill its guts Can't stop these visions, they come to me Let me tell you what I see I King Kong up the church steeple Scream at the top of my lungs and wave guns at the wrong people All you plastic pieces of shit Can sit on my middle finger and spin The heat's starting to get to me As the van slithers across the sand When they're gone well they're gone and they ain't comin' back You can count on that Shadows form into hands and dance like scissors across the top of the van Intoxicated by the fever that builds and the hospital pill I am free of this world Shadows form into hands and dance like scissors across the top of the van Intoxicated by the fever that builds and the hospital pill I am free of this world Hallucinations quicken Unending crucifixion Crown of sickness Radiate my illness Hallucinations quicken Unending crucifixion Crown of sickness Radiate my illness First thing I'll do is scribble out the sun Cut the ceiling, let it spill its guts Can't stop these visions, they come to me Let me tell you what I see I am free of this world I am free of this world Hallucinations quicken Unending crucifixion Crown of sickness Radiate my illness Hallucinations quicken Unending crucifixion Crown of sickness Radiate my illness

First thought of the day Has become the only one I can't complain But I feel like their is no escape No I haven't forgot I've yet to convince myself that it's lost Shape up Ship out as fast as you can There will never be a second chance Relive the moment Stuck in the omen Save your excuses Run With entertainment Make it a statement Beyond comparison There will never be a second chance Never again You're nothing to me I never gave a fuck in the first place Something in my chest rips open Inner peace is finally broken Free Like its meant to be Complete waste Have no faith Retribution Is condemned by the influence There will never be a second chance Never again

This is the ballad of the butcher Please stop me before I kill again All that bloodshed and snapped necks roll around inside of my head The evil that lives within me, it spreads without my consent A landlord of sadistic intent Every day I hunt for the next one For the perfect picture that I can hang on my wall These paths crossed for a reason A reason above my head and unluckily for them I'm a monster Tied up in the truck bed, I wonder if they wonder How they had no idea 'bout what I really wanted The man who smiled, a man of surrender Could be the same one who is putting them under I hate it what my body and mind craves Why was I made this way? John the Butcher Watches you when you move John the Butcher Waits for you in your home I'll cut you loose so I can hunt you Run you down and then I'll catch you Laugh in the night as you fall to your knees Exploit all your hopes, dreams and memories I'll cut you loose so I can hunt you Run you down and then I'll catch you Laugh in the night as you fall to your knees Exploit all your hopes, dreams and memories John the Butcher Watches you when you move John the Butcher Waits for you in your home I can't let you go now You've seen my other side I am John the Butcher This is goodbye The evil that lives within me Spreads without my consent The evil that lives within me A landlord of sadistic intent It's not my fault It's not my fault It's not my fault It's not my fault It's not my fault It's not my fault It's not my fault

Hollow victories For a broken man A shattered purpose What second chance? Hollow victories For a broken man A shattered purpose What second chance? I feel like Judas kissed me Like nothing's right Doomed to suffer For the rest of my life Rip my eyes out now Be careful what you wish for You might just get it I wanted the worst And now I got it I wanted it all Well now I lost it I wanted the worst well I've become it Funeral home was my throne Staring contest with death and the grim reaper Picture of the lord over the door Remember you can't afford to be a bad boy Funeral home was my throne Staring contest with death and the grim reaper Picture of the lord over the door Remember you can't afford to be a bad boy Well I was and I am The prince of pain Sin is my middle name What's the point? Who fucking cares The dirt under your nails The man you love to hate Well I was and I am The prince of pain Sin is my middle name What's the point? Who fucking cares The dirt under your nails The man you love to hate I am a dead end Around each corner and within each word Why were my wings cut? Bankrupt of all worth Send me to the heavens So I can jump headfirst Into the womb of the earth Let this unending hurt Break all binds Annihilate my mind There's no light There's no tunnel There's nothing at all From the moment I first opened my eyes I have been marked for sacrifice I am the prince of pain Drowning in darkness From the moment I first opened my eyes My body swells as I suffocate and fall back down again Back down again Why were my wings cut? Hollow victories For a broken man A shattered purpose What second chance?

Changing forms, I sense the anger Aroused by violent thoughts, I start to tease the trigger All the bullshit is swept aside I told you I'd catch up with you, I'm judge and jury and it's eye for an eye Fuck Different story, different names But the ending's always the same Spinning in circles, watching my back Around you gutless vultures Trust me, I'm over it, just under the weather Thunder it, shaking walls down, thumping them More fucked up and hated than ever I'm like twenty tons of dynamite that's ready to blow One foot in the grave I'm ready to go and put this all behind me One foot in the grave I'm ready to go and put this all behind me One foot in the grave Don't ever forgive, don't ever forget One foot in the grave Now off with his head Save the excuses, keep the names But this time it won't end the same I'll spit in the face of letting go And being the better person Trust me, I'm over it, just under the weather Thunder it, shaking walls down, thumping them More fucked up and hated than ever I'm like twenty tons of dynamite that's ready to blow One foot in the grave I'm ready to go and put this all behind me One foot in the grave I'm ready to go and put this all behind me One foot in the grave Don't ever forgive, don't ever forget One foot in the grave Now off with his head All the bullshit is swept aside Changing forms, I sense the anger I'm judge and jury and it's eye for an eye Eye for an eye One foot in the grave One food in the grave Now off with his head

I've built up a wall, now I can't see around it I've hurt the closest to me like it didn't even matter at all The highest highs never cover the lowest lows You'll never find comfort in things as empty as your soul I'm drowning There's no doubt about it No way around it Sunset to sunrise, I'm hounded Another walk back From the bar with the stars Saying tomorrow will be different They always told me whiskey was the work of the devil And I've seen it first hand But why do I feel closer to god now when I'm sent? I've built up a wall, now I can't see around it I've hurt the closest to me like it didn't even matter at all The highest highs never cover the lowest lows You'll never find comfort in things as empty as your soul Friend of the devil But closer to god When I'm heavy headed Friend of the devil But closer to god When I'm heavy headed Friend of the devil But closer to god When I'm heavy headed Friend of the devil But closer to god When I'm heavy headed
