Means to an End 03:55

Scared to death get on that flight Ten hours on this missile Pills and whiskey are my plight My worries now are futile I’d rather not be on this runway Wheels on the white line Pass the bottle I’ll beat it someday Always feels like my time Oh my god I’m so afraid I can’t believe I’m here again The engine roars, I ain’t religious I really pray that Jesus hears this Every bump my heart sinks deeper I really should have popped those sleepers I know I’ll have to sit this trial When we touch down I’ll walk out in denial Inflight entertainment starts And you’re not here to hold my hand Plastic smiles hide broken hearts Without you if we don’t land Wheels touch down and I can’t breathe My nails come out the seat This whole projectile sighs relief Two more weeks my heart will beat Got to catch that purple sky My windows down that west coast drive Through dessert dusts feel so alive All the way to 'Frisco

Rage 04:03
lyrics

Wash this blood all off my hands Feel the water cleanse me See those dark eyes staring back This monster wants to roam free Trying not to tread the path Paved in hate and violence There was a time I called it home Longed for calm and silence Yeah I want to live I want to feel secure I want to give these scars the time they need to heal I don’t want to fight I don’t want to take your life I don’t want to give into this hatred but this RAGE Bust you up, put your ass in a body bag RAGE Fuck you up, put your name on a toe tag Wash this blood all off my hands Should I pay for my crimes? Wait until the waters clear You know it’s not the first time To make the world a better place You need to crush the vermin Every creature deserves to live But no one’s gonna’ miss him

For a Flag 04:10
lyrics

This tattered town is getting old Deserted streets dark and cold The 55 that took me home To a town that’s now long gone Market halls now dust and stone The playgrounds are all overgrown The grocer man is on the dole But on we hunt all Wal-Mart long Lives eroded throw your stones Bricks and bottles defend your own No more bombs now you atone For a flag that’s almost gone Recession just makes white men fatter Our lives they are not getting better The banks now they commit the crime But none of them are doing time No more bombs now you atone For a flag that’s almost Gone

Where’d my cross town woman go Where’s my little girl She gotta’ hide from her old man Keep me hanging on Heading out of her back door Just after heading in My pants are still on her floor That smell of sweat and sin Yeah she’s gonna tease me Yeah she’s gonna please me Yeah she’s gonna treat me Yeah she’s gonna beat me Friday rolls around again I wonder which road to take Drop down a gear my engine strains I hit that blacktop snake The whiskey she has brought for me is already in my glass The memory of my shitty week Already fading fast And I’ll never forget the first time I saw her My fairy in boots with her beautiful blue hair

lyrics

Tumble outta bed and I stumble to the kitchen Pour myself a cup of ambition And yawn and stretch and try to come to life Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin' Out on the street the traffic starts jumpin' The folks like me on the job from 9 to 5 Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by, It's all takin' and no givin' They just use your mind and they never give you credit It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it 9 to 5, for service and devotion You would think that I would deserve a fat promotion Want to move ahead but the boss won't seem to let me I swear sometimes that man is out to get me They let you dream just to watch 'em shatter You're just a step on the boss-man's ladder But you got dreams he'll never take away You're in the same boat with a lotta your friends Waitin' for the day your ship'll come in The tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll your way Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by, It's all takin' and no givin' They just use your mind and they never give you credit It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it 9 to 5, yeah they got you where they want you There's a better life and you think about it, don't you It's a rich man's game, no matter what they call it And you spend your life puttin' money in his wallet
