Dead Horse

You only come around
When you land at the bottom
Only call when you need some
You think I’ve forgotten
Too many half-truths spoken
Too many promises broken
You’ll beat a dead horse
Then you’ll beat it back to life
You know my weakness
You know I’ll pay the price
But I’m tired of the losing
Tired of the bruising
I’ll close my eyes until you’re gone
I wish for once you’d prove me wrong
But not tonight, not this time
I can see it in your eyes
Don’t cry, don’t lie
I’ve heard that shit before
I’ve heard all of your stories
You try and try and try
To pry open my defenses
It’s endless and senseless
You’ll beat a dead horse…
Beat it back to life again

X Cop Car

X Cop Car…
As a boy I was the man
Shiny black and blue
Speed and punch cherry on top
Fear and might fuck you
Now foot on the gas I’m a heavy weight
Feeling no shame and high on hate
Parting the seas street by street
I was made by man’s hands to dominate
X Cop Car…
Still still nice nice on the inside
Come on baby let’s go for a ride
Don’t ask me why there’s no handles on the inside
Inside I’m just an X Cop Car
Life of crime my evil ways
I left the law behind
Now bad is good and black is light
I’m wanted dead or alive
Sneaking through the dark of night
Silent as a lamb
Second chance a twist of fate
Catch me if you fucking can
X Cop Car…
You see stealin’ isn’t really stealin’
If you wash your hands afterwards
I think that’s where we left it the last time
Ready to roll
Keep the motor running
Moving all night
Takin’ all that’s coming
Never let you down
No not for nothing
Out on the mean streets
Got to keep in humming
X Cop Car…
You fool me once
You can’t kill me again

Trillion

Things are about to fly apart
How much longer can we go?
The machine is shaking violently
I don’t know if its gonna hold
Yeah, I can barely see the road.
Really can’t say the road we’re on.
Yeah, got to get a glimpse of this reality
But it’s not what it seems.
Running hard, running in the red.
I don’t think this is the way He said.
Here it comes now. Here comes the curve.
Now is no time to lose your nerve.
Yeah, I’m just a cat climbing in a tree.
I’m off the ground but I’m not free.
Yeah, gonna take a dip in this reality
But it’s not what it seems.
Just a bird who learned a word
I said the right things at the right time
The desert air flies by. My special tea.
I crawl out of my little box…
Yeah, there’s a trillion stars around
And I really feel the peace.
Yeah, gonna take a swim in this reality
But it’s not what it seems.

Doctor

Doctor, you got to give me something for the pain
I don’t care, you can give me the well, you can give me the name
Can’t you see, can’t you see I’m in need
Ahh man, can’t you see how she made me bleed
Tell Me Why, I’m standing here, all alone
Tell me why, I must be so lonesome
What did I do, to deserve all of this pain?
After you, I will never be the same
Doctor, take my pulse, come on diagnose
Oh yeah …come on, you know you gotta give me a dose
Oh no, oh the games, the games she played
Ahh man, can’t you see how she made me pay
Tell Me Why, I’m standing here all alone
Tell me why, I must be so lonesome.
What did I do, to deserve all of this pain?
After you, I will never be the same

This life built you up
Just to cut you down
Taking all of you
Deep into the ground
Wool rose up early
Over your eyes
Those Shades of deceit
Came as no surprise
You think I You think I
Am the one in control
But I But I tell you
I’ve got one foot out the door
Running from voices
Roaming your head
Perpetual motion
Fleeing the dread
It goes on and on
So never look back
Never stop thinking
Never never relax
You think I You think I
Am the one in control?
But I But I tell you
I’ve got one foot out the door
It goes on and on and on and on…
This life builds us up
Just to cut us down
Taking all of us
Deep into the ground
Wool can rise up
And cover your eyes
These Shades of deceit
Should be no surprise
It goes on and on and on and on…

Jet Black Tie-Dye
03:49

Tom Lee was thumpin’
with all the people bumpin’
up and down the line
Apple pie cheekbones,
a perfume mind,
and those trick-or-treat eyes
That girl’s got a nice swing,
and she swing it so fine, by and by
Everybody knew, that the rain
was coming soon, yeah
We saw it coming down
Right across the water
Tried to run and hide
And then it was gone
Jet black tie-dye down by the river,
shiny and wet
Stuck in the mud but you won’t be long
when you talk like that
Come and go, come and go, come and go
It’s alright that night
‘cause they all found each other,
by the end of the show…
We saw it coming down
Right across the water
Tried to run and hide
And then it was gone

Hitler's Last Birthday
06:04
|
|||
Bombs are dropping on top of our heads
The inner circle circles till the end
By land by air but nobody fled
Through allied forces and through hot lead
Armies are storming from every shore
Moments from knocking on our front door
Shaky knees and shifting eyes
Killer to killer all dressed in disguise
Its Hitler’s last birthday and I have to go
Oh no oh no oh no oh no
If I don’t show their gunuh know
Oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no
Drinks are served on the upper floor
Murderer’s nerves shaken to their core
Smiles handshakes no talk of disgrace
And what they did to the human race
Bombs are dropping
Dust is floating
Champagnes flowing
Everyone’s staring at the door
Bombs exploding
Dodging and shifting
Game of Chess first to leave
Almost certain death
Cocaine drops tipping back his head
In 10 days he’ll soon be dead
Up from the bunker and into the light
It’s the end of the Wolf it’s the end of the Reich
Its Hitler’s last birthday and I have to go
Oh no oh no oh no oh no
If I don’t show their gunnuh know
Oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no
Bombs are dropping
Dust is floating
Champagnes flowing
Everyone’s staring at the door
Bombs exploding
Dodging and shifting
Game of Chess first to leave
Almost certain death
No place to go
No place to go
No place to go
It’s the end of the show

Making Candles

Making candles during the day
Not bad not bad the ladies say
Dive straight in dive deep
Don’t come up for air when you’ve left your feet
Wait wait never hesitate
Don’t sit down when they tell you to break
Go on never look back
Run for your life and have a crack
And have yourself a ball
Don’t be afraid to fall
Get right back up again
This life adventure
Is about to begin
Some claim to know the game
Some remain paralyzed slowly playing
These moments remember you
Turn around and they are staring back at you
Drive fast take a chance
It’s all about your future and not your past
Don’t listen to what they say
Put all of your cards on the table and make a play
And have yourself a ball
Don’t be afraid to fall
Get right back up again
This life adventure
Is about to begin

unbranded fusion of compelling rock-n-roll.
Stained with 70’s and 80’s radio, with a heavy dip of post punk and psychedelic groove rock. Mine the Void was cut from the same cloth of an old CBGB’s bar rag.
