[ Featuring the Graveyard Shift ]
Well if you've had a taste you've swallowed disgrace and chosen
To waste a city called home
To all the lords above, I'd hate to be friends
When we can't pretend these scars have been sewn
I'm taking your advice and rollin the dice, when I'm out of tries i'll say i was right
But if i'm on a roll, i'll dig a deep hole and pay my own toll
It's just a shadow of hope, It's an illusion I made
The garden your soil can't grow is being thrown in your face
It's way to early to tell, but there's no way to escape
I guess they called your bluff, looks like they've had enough
Of all your lovely lies, all of your ties are gonna cut themselves loose
From being faithful and true
You know you can't act a fool and have the pawns keep their cool
Traditions pass you down, they turn the cards around
They keep you at your word, it's so absurd
To think the trail won't end and let a new path begin
But son your next line of kin will try to shed the same skin
I'll show you how to fail in line with betrayal the Lone Star derails
When fate sets the course
I'm holstering the guns that shoot you down stunned, salute 21 with ammo filled force
You shield all of the words where the mismatch occurred
Don't believe what you've heard when it can't hold it's weight
We'll teach you what to know before heroes grow to two timing shows
It's just a day time affair caught in a night dweller's web
The Devil once had the blues, but now he only sees red
He never meant to unload all of the triggers of death
I guess we're on our own, you can't escape the moan
Black snakes are in the grass, we would collapse, you know me better than that
You know these weak knees won't last
You can't be loyal to dreams. You'll take me down by all means
I felt a timeless rush, those veins are cold and lush
You try to shake the trance, they'll never chance
To let a loose end roam free, they'll lay your body down clean
You'll get a proper goodbye, You'll have a warm place to lie
