lyrics

---

lost in the cities of the red night
as god slides along the floor
landlocked in the gallows
display my bones in a blackened bowl
I can't afford another mood shift
and still pretend that I have control
Xerox a copy of my fingerprints
hang it over the hole in the wall

is looking for big love worth much
a pale girl in a red sheet
stagger into her payroll
still fuzzy from the wet street
spare parts in apartments
torn away from the ligaments
living lifetimes in bedrooms
and falling asleep

I can almost see a theme here
I can almost see the future too
I can't wait to give you the news
amantillado and cement on my boot

a thousand tiny little switchblades
let loose on your decadent street
nova sardonic as the blade dips
severing the head of the king

dead kids with squirt guns
from far away it's a normal thing
shit, somebody call ambulance
here comes another metal murder machine
