Devil's Dust 03:11
White smoke burns out a blackened skyline I never thought the night could turn out this way My eyes bled for you for a long time You're the kind of girl that's got me tying a tourniquet around my elbow to get another fix. I can’t see straight from the bottom of this pit I can’t breathe right from all this smoke i don’t feel right my skin it won't fit i cannot see Feel free to drag me down i want to throw my life away Feel free to drag me down my life was over anyway Time heals all wounds but it's made my need stronger fires chalk out a hazy silhouette of you I just can’t quit this, you know i need this I just can’t help myself but all i ever really wanted was to get all of these bees out of my fucking teeth My mind warps as you seep deeper into my blood there's one thing i know for sure I WON'T DIE SOBER, EUGH! WE WON'T DIE SOBER! WE WON'T DIE SOBER! Ill drag my self back off the ground just to end up led the fuck back down i can’t pick myself up off the ground But I'm lost somewhere i don’t wanna be found I don’t wanna be found

Smoke drink fuck fight hold it down and keep it tight I couldn't care less anyway Lets make this a night i wish i could count the time but the lines seem blurred Drop it all at the chance for us to see things at a glance shoot for the sun Even if i burn my wings or miss out on the finer things I’ll speak in tongues If i could take one single chance I'd set things straight If i could make one single change I’d have shit made We’ll bring noise Empty shattered chords in the hope That I can somehow stay afloat One day i can give this back a life spent on the full warpath cold empty juggernaut hearts with swan songs of a blackened art An ending time is drawing near along a path that seemed so clear but from ashes phoenixes rise to bring this to it's full reprise Live with this or go without, beyond the shadow of a doubt a tendency for blasphemy you can’t see the forest for the trees gangrene limbs and twisted souls, and consciences as black as coal at night we fly you better run we winged things are not much fun. If i could take one single chance to set things straight If i could make one single change I’d have shit made x2 This time we bring the hunt to an end an inhumane and unnatural trend x2 CRUSH

Skies will always fade and the seasons they change nothing stays the same And the cycle repeats again Mountains fall in time and the seas they all dry nothing stays the same and the cycle repeats again you all will rue the day That you ever doubted us nothing stays the same still the cycle repeats again The earth will change its face lost in an empty world nothing stays the same the cycle repeats again nothing stays the same when you turn over new leaves

One day i wish to be buried in gold! Watch out! as all i touch proves to be worthless Empty husks that won’t be worth the weight that drags them down and You can fight it all you want but nothing's there to save you They’re watching, and all you can do is let them devour you Vultures, scream in the night praying for fresh meat, praying for fresh meat Vultures scream in the night praying for you to, praying for you to bring out your dead No one has the Midas touch! But those that haunt the castle walls So this is it my everything i just want the chance to live carefree i can’t do this can’t get through this i'm not a pawn in your game feeding back into society You can see a way to wander through the darkest night They say the stronger minds have always been the victors here and Its a shame the spoils get shared amongst all the monsters When all the peasants drown in their waste Urchins crawl for the light praying for fresh meat, praying for fresh meat Urchins crawl for the light, praying for you, praying for you to bring out your dead. No one has the Midas touch! bar those that haunt the golden shores So this is it my everything i just want the chance to live carefree i can’t do this can’t get through this i'm not a pawn in your game feeding back into society Pick the meat from my bones Only death can guide me home Pick the meat from my bones Only you turn me to stone These nightmares i’m living, I’m surely awake it all seems so real, but the memories are vague x2 I want to be free.

take a new chance i would wager things will work out the same fabrications of the mind with a hunger for the shame Fill your lungs with bile and sulfur but it won’t change a thing excuses got me no where now i see everything Now watch me bring down mountains with all but idle though ti'll achieve my own goals tenfold and still come back for more Life wont accept excuses So why should I? Moonshine courses through my blood and it will stop for no one I’ll keep swimming through the floods and we will stop for no one Give me one solid reason to take back all I've said I may have played the tyrant but we didn't wind up dead through all your jaded anger there is no greater good You've turned your blind eyes due south to appear misunderstood Now watch me bring down mountains With nothing but idle thought i'll achieve my own goals tenfold and still achieve all yours Life won't accept excuses So why should we? Moonshine courses through my blood and it will stop for no one I’ll keep swimming through the floods and we will stop for no one even if you play the victim won’t mean you cannot fall the world will swallow you whole if you aren't standing tall I hide in plain sight, the same as you I hide in plain sight, the same as you Moonshine courses through my blood and it will stop for no one I’ll keep swimming through the floods and we will stop for no one
