I was living in a godly town And it really brought me down I was scared to death To take the wrong step In that godly town. My best friends were Marsha and Joe Took me everywhere they would go It wasn't the church but them That made me who I am. I was afraid of heaven I was afraid of hell I was afraid of angels Though it taught me well. God damn that godly town God damn that godly town. I was told prayer works so well I never got answers that I could tell I haven't said a prayer since that day Cause the ones that got sick died anyway. The ones that got sick died anyway God damn that godly town.

You should read the verses That they don't teach to you in churches If you want a bloody story Where death is a righteous kind of glory. Devil worshipper, you think Is gonna bring life to the brink That only your god has done before Will he keep a promise anymore? You pray to save a life But what if they want a sacrifice? So many things for you to ignore To think that love is at the core.

First you're yelling, yelling at the news Then you're screaming and crying You don't know what to do. Think you know everything Like there's nothing to learn Nothing is ever complicated It's so easy to discern. Ain't that right? So you want to be on FOX news TV? Lie through your teeth, nothing to see You don't know what to do. Only blame the Democrats You think might makes right And if I say that you're wrong Then you want to fight. Ain't that right?

For Dan 01:50
He's dead and gone We're in his space We're in his house We're in this place. Another song And then withdrawn He was here But now he's gone. He was a son He was a son He was a son. Gun in hand, defend the land He was a son, his name was Dan What will he be in the next life?

The ring the moonlight brings And lighting up the whole sky It's like singing to a hymn When the moonlight dims Can you feel your soul? Oh no? The light guides me my way Until the light of the day The light the moon will bring Asking if I may sing. Enchanting Forrests Oh so glorious A captivating joy for us Oh so joyous. The ring the moonlight brings The taste of rain on my tongue And when the rebel is unsung How do we cheer what he brung?

What is a man if he won't protect A child he should love and respect When the hand that feeds turns into a fist This is no man at all, I insist.

I have nothing left to hide Sometimes I wish I would have died I have got no sense of pride No amount of chains make me abide. Live inside a modeled hell Deep inside and fed so well Burning from the embers still Once upon a time I'd kill. Scream Scream. Scream until I'm coughing up blood Drag my name through the mud Build me up to burn me down Silence when I come around. All my songs are bitter pills Longing for some better thrills Wide awake and dead Inside Rotting corpse and startled bride. Greed Greed.

I don't need a machine to keep me alive Four wheels and a seat to get me to drive I don't need another anything to keep me from sitting all alone all day. I don't need another broken heart I need another way to start I don't need another anything to get me lower to the ground than I already am. I don't need another friend like you I don't need another friend like you. I don't need another friend like you to do Anything like I told no one to do I don't need another anything to make me realize the selfish twinkle in our eyes. I don't need another motivational speech I don't need another goal for me to reach I don't need another anything to get me moving on a road going nowhere. I read Walden, War and Peace I read Chomsky on the beach I read Emma Goldman to make me like the way I am a while more.

Permanence 03:42
I don't want to grow old But I don't want to die Have you ever looked in the mirror And asked yourself why? Why does anything, end? Everything felt so permanent Why, did I stop feeling it? When did you stop feeling it? I don't want to lose anybody Does anybody want to lose me? Will we make it to the golden ages And hate time for turning the pages? I hate life for giving me Things that I can't keep. When you lose somebody you'd die for Then dying sounds so sweet When you lose somebody you'd die for Then dying sounds so sweet.

Boxer 03:01
Well, I got this rough exterior From the fighters of a long time gone Like Muhammad Ali in 1964 When he said let me open up the door. So, call me a boxer Like I used to do. Like taking a beating to our rotten core With bruised up fists and egos for sure Just ask James J. Braddock, even in his prime Who'd have thought it be such a mountain to climb? So, call me a boxer, still This can't be my final round. I remember all the practice runs Mean faces and filthy puns I remember my first black and blue And I still know what to do. I remember the concussion sting Three but not one of them was in the ring So, what a fucking legacy to leave But it's not like anyone remembers but me. So, call me a boxer Like I used to do.
