No light to guide your tunnel, no daylight creeping in
There’s been some kind of going on, don’t let it pierce your skin
You’id pray at night for gunshots, if only you had faith
There’s been some kind of going on, don't let it pierce your skin
40%, forty proof, ageing bones are shrivelled proof
Let the beast break through, its not afraid to go any more
Cos I’d rather crawl along than die.
I know it’ll be alone and here is why
There’s a big black hole inside of me
The size of which will blow your mind

I needed to face mortality if I would overcome
So I combed my hair, got dressed and to the water the magnet pulled
I walked through the valleys,
I found my place
With a pack of four and a flask thats full, the silence I’ll embrace
YOU WONT DROWN IN THESE WATERS
AND YOU WONT HANG IN THESE TREES
YOU CAN'T FIRE GUNS INSIDE THESE WOODS
AND THERE AIN'T NO BRIDGES HERE
So I took a gulp of whiskey and imagined a blue lake
a lake as deep as the Persian gulf maybe it could seal my fate
And I laughed at the shallow river, on the banks of which I lay
It took five more gulps of whiskey to let the silence have its say
YOU WONT DROWN IN THESE WATERS
AND YOU WONT HANG IN THESE TREES
YOU CANT FIRE' GUNS INSIDE THESE WOODS
AND THERE AINT NO BRIDGES HERE
As I lay on the railroad track
I look above, I aint' ever going back
Don't need no taste of reality
This new world holds no place for me
Love us, or hate us but we do it in style
We are the victims of a mass suicide
Your net gives us no safety here
Utopian dreams confused by fear
YOU WON'T DROWN IN THESE WATERS
AND YOU WONT HANG IN THESE TREES
YOU CANT FIRE GUNS INSIDE THESE WOODS
AND THERE AIN'T NO BRIDGES HERE

You’ll be down and out
You’ll be on your knees
I’ll be thrashing out my plans to disease
You’ll be watching on, I’ll be waiting
For all of my fantasies to consume
You will walk alone, you will shrink through fear
You will hear dogs howl, smell the stench so clear
Feel the pump of blood as its raging.
As the blade draws near it's a done done deal
With ethanol, the glass is tall, becomes me
I’ll cut you all, 'til the walls come down,
See you crumble around me
This Valium, the wall is tall surrounds me
God burn them all
Ashes all fall down but your flames won't scorch me
From the crying bum, to the kids on crack
From the cloud of blood, hear the thunderclap
Flipping heads or tails, ion a wager
Bet your life on me, spin the wheel, feel free
Pick the weapon of choice, hear the cranking of gears
As the chainsaw shouts “RING RING” in your ears
Clasp the neck of hope and its ringing
The receivers to boost as the end draws near
With ethanol, the glass is tall, becomes me
I’ll cut you all, 'til the walls come down,
See you crumble around me
This Valium, the wall is tall surrounds me
God burn them all
Ashes all fall down but your flames won't scorch me

Ask The Dust

Do you want to ask the dust?
I will, if she’s right beside me
I’ll never come unstuck, as long as she’s here beside me
Now the lamp posts are falling.
Camilla aint here beside me
The earth is quaking, the dog is laughing, the chimneys shaking
But she’s not around me
How do I sleep?
Well, I don’t sleep well
And I dare you to spend, one night inside my personal hell
Write it down oh yes, pour it down, so sweet ,
Burn the bridge between heaven and hell
The creator is lighting the fires my friend and even the ashes can tell
Pour old Sammy’s coffee, extinguish all of my dreams
He’s more than a poor old leper she screams
But she loves him more than me
But I’m the one who fades away
And all I bleed is hate
Camilla, It's in my blood babe,
I don’t want to see you again
