Rather Be Dead 02:30
lyrics

Rather be dead than lonely And nothing’s gonna right this wrong I needed you just to hold me Why couldn’t you have played along Television lights the hallway Paints a pattern on the wall Maybe you’ll believe me someday Maybe sometime after the fall Sun shining through your hair Summer is in the air And the flowers still grow So then why did you go Rather be dead than lonely It’s only getting harder to breathe All along the cracks were showing If only you had listened to me And the flowers still grow So then why did you go So then why did you go So then why did you go

Take it from me, pull a Halloween if you want the world to know your name All it takes is some simple steps, won’t make a fortune but you’ll get your fame Everybody wants to be something, everybody wants to get those views Time after time, though we are reminded, good deeds don’t make the evening news You steal a car and You fill it with gas You get a butcher knife And you put on your mask You gotta creep right Get cold to the bone Go psycho, go psycho, go psycho, go psycho On Halloween Think you’re tough and you think you got the guts, well I double double dare ya Takes a bad bad mother to pull this off, now I ain’t tryin’ to scare you It’s a big wild game if you’re willing to play, but it ain’t for the faint of heart If you got the fire like Michael Myers, I’ll tell you how to get your start You steal a car and You fill it with gas You get a butcher knife And you put on your mask You gotta creep right Get cold to the bone Go psycho, go psycho, go psycho, go psycho On Halloween You steal a car and You fill it with gas You get a butcher knife And you put on your mask You gotta creep right Get cold to the bone Go psycho, go psycho, go psycho, go psycho You steal a car and You fill it with gas You get a butcher knife And you put on your mask You gotta creep right Get cold to the bone Go psycho, go psycho, go psycho, go psycho, go psycho, go psycho, go psycho, go psycho On Halloween

Bad Juju 03:53
lyrics
buy track
I was born on the 13th, a Friday. Mom was a mystic. Dad shoveled driveways. Always said that I scared kids away. I would try, but they just wouldn’t play. I came out with the evil eye. Gemini. Couldn’t cry. Mummified. Always was the bad guy. Favorite number was 666. Threw bricks, played tricks, and my nose always itched. See a ladder? I walk underneath. Get a rabbit’s foot: Throw it in the street. Break a mirror: clean it up with my teeth. Eat meat. Offbeat. Cheat cheat. Repeat. Sweet. Always lie. Never knock on wood. Never tried, and my grades weren’t good. Find a penny? I leave it alone. Point at people. Spill the salt when my parents aren’t home cuz I’m.... Bad Juju. I’m Bad Juju. Always laugh when the hearse goes by. Open up an umbrella inside. Bad Juju. I’m Bad Juju. Bad bad bad. Bad Juju. Bad Juju. Sometimes I like spending my time caging up leprechauns. Acting unkind. Throw a horseshoe up in the air. Keep it up right cuz I just don’t care. What you know about the genie in a lamp? Wish him dead honey how are you like that? I’m a weirdo. Got 13 cats. Step on a crack, I’ll break your mommas back. Four leaf clovers? Mow um over. See a rainbow? Hard ignore. Cuz I’m rotten to the core. Drop brooms on the floor. I won the lottery 16 times. Ripped up the tickets. Erased it from my mind. Broken clock? Display it on the shelf. Good luck charm baby keep it to yourself. Planting poisonous plants keeps the fairies away, and I only wear white after Labor Day cuz I’m... Bad Juju. I’m Bad Juju. Always laugh when the hearse goes by. Open up an umbrella inside. Bad Juju. I’m Bad Juju. Bad bad bad. Bad Juju. Bad Juju. Bad is the way that I roll cuz I’m ruthless. Smoke a pack a day cuz the goal’s to be toothless. I do bad things and turn it around on you. Put a rock in your shoe and paint your chair with glue. Now I say Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, BOO! Like Bloody Mary, Baby, ima come for you. Cuz I’m bad juju, I got the bad vibes, Boo. Make um feel so good. I’ll make you bad vibe, too, cuz I’m... Bad Juju. I’m Bad Juju. Always laugh when the hearse goes by. Open up an umbrella inside. Bad Juju. I’m Bad Juju. Bad bad bad. Bad Juju. Bad Juju.

The Last Walk 04:18
lyrics
buy track
What have I gotten myself into? Tried to walk out of what I’ve been through. Went out too far. I’ve gotta turn back. My face, my feet, my hands will turn black. Breathing in the cold. Dark night. White light just from the snow now. Chest tight. Frost bite. Don’t wanna go down. Wind stopped. I’ve dropped all that I’ve carried. Footsteps I’ve made are being buried. Bathing in the cold. Freezing in the cold. Heart rate. Dilate. Hallucination. Can’t speak. Can’t think. No concentration. I can’t accept this situation. No time. Snow blind. Losing sensation. Fading in the cold. Fading in the cold.

Was a quarter past nine when I noticed the time Woke up in the driver's seat Handgun in the box bullets on the floor Bag of money at my feet There's a desert in my throat there's a pounding in my head The sun is beating down on me Nearly gone blind from the blood in my eyes Lord I can barely see Boss won't be very happy with me I should've been to work by eight Seems last night I was running on time Now I'm running late I couldn't recall nothing at all When I came back around But there's no doubt that I must've blacked out something bad must've gone down Just about four when I crawled out the door and I stepped out on the street What did I see I was looking back at me Cold dead in the driver's seat I still can't say what happened that day But Lord knows it's my fate Seems last night I was running' on time But now I'm run running late. I still can't say what happened that day But Lord knows it's my fate Seems last night I was running' on time But now I'm run running late Seems last night I was running' on time But now I'm run running late Now I'm running late Now I'm running' late

Talked to you five times last week Now you know we probably won't speak (You're ghosted) Walked and laughed and had ourselves a ball Now you should know by now I'll never call (You're ghosted) Shifting shape Without a trace Disappear evaporate Vanishing from the mist Thought you had me cornered But we barely even kissed Now you're ghosted All this time the messages they flowed Suddenly they stopped they didn't slow (You're ghosted) Sending all these pictures of my life Now it's like I must have surely died (You're ghosted) Shifting shape Without a trace Disappear evaporate Vanishing from the mist Thought you had me cornered But we barely even kissed Now you're ghosted

Walk In The Woods 03:49

Branches break the hearts of men, Sittin’ in the den of hungry ghosts Shiny suits and silver hair They tied me to the chair with shipman’s rope Step out on the frozen ground The sun is down, we’ll never leave a mark Turning from the light we’ve known, Reaching for each other in the dark. Walk in the woods, walk in the woods Walk in the woods...with me. Walk in the woods, walk in the woods Walk in the woods...with me. Sitting in Medusa’s eyes I hear the lies That cut you to the bone. She told you tales from long ago You took them in, believed they were your own. Baby screams her jealous rage She’s half your age you seen what’s in her cages, Wake up, in that ransom chair She cut your hair, you know the war she’s waging. Walk in the woods, walk in the woods Walk in the woods...with me. Walk in the woods, walk in the woods Walk in the woods...with me. Madness makes the world go round, I’ll match you pound for pound and bite for bark, Howling at a moonless night You and I, we’re not so far apart… Madness made this house of cards With seven sisters spinning in the yard. Meet me at the poplar tree You and me, we got matching scars. The deeper we go, The less that we’ll know Who we are, who we are Who we are… The deeper we go, The less that we’ll know Who we are, who we are, Who we are, Who we are, who we are, Who we are… Who we are, who we are Who we are… Walk in the woods, walk in the woods Walk in the woods...with me.

No threats, no sweat, I’m gutting free of regret, That kept me on the corner, All stare, I don’t care, I’m sitting high in my chair, At 3 o’clock in the morning, No shame, don’t blame me for kicking the frame, And ending the torrent, No fame, no names will I take in vain, But this is my warning, I’ve spent the best of my years, Overcasting blue skies, And I’ve cried the last of my tears, From all of your goodbyes, But when the moon turns Halloween orange, I’ll be looking for new sky, For the new sky. I walk out on the edge, looking off of the ledge, For signs of what we are becoming, I’ll take back all the lies and the promises I couldn’t keep but kept me running, No sleep in the street, feel the heat from the faces, And places familiar, I don’t play, there’s no Dorian Gray, looking my way, In the mirror, Well I’ve spend the best of my years, Overcasting the blue skies, And I’ve cried the last of my tears, From all of your goodbyes, But when the moon turns Halloween orange, I’ll be looking for new sky, For the new sky. If the end of times is a’comin’, Don’t come runnin’ to me, now. When the moon turns Halloween orange, I’ll be looking for a new skies, For the new skies, For the new skies.

Starting to feel like something’s broken inside my head Starting to fear the creeping voices they want me dead Thought it was Over but it keeps Coming back Again Waiting in another cold room while they run more tests What is going on with me It’s Anybody’s guess Thought it was Over but it keeps Coming back Again (Closure) Scratches on my skin Won’t heal They mark this hell i’m living in I know this hurts but I’ve been through worse U can’t kill me if I get u first No, no, no When I’m alone I can’t contain it I hear them scream Lost in the crowd it’s getting harder to know who’s me Thought it was Over but it keeps Coming back Again Pushing me closer and closer and closer, and closer to the Edge (Closure) Scratches on my skin Won’t heal They mark this hell i’m living in I know this hurts but I’ve been through worse U can’t kill me if I get u first

Sea Of Eyes 04:06

Unprepared before the crowd Theater’s so quiet, the breathing’s loud No matter how I appear - they can see my naked fear Lights are bright but I know the room is filled with darkness I hear rustling out there - - Unprepared before the crowd Gone from bold to nervous Here I am supposed to bow But instead I’m wordless I caught a glimpse Of many faces In the seats My heart races I stand alone Frozen in time A deer in headlights Oh shit! What’s my LINE?!? A sea of eyes All I see is a sea of eyes All I see is a sea of eyes I’m sinking under this sea of eyes

Dissappeared 02:50

Looking under the trestle Searching behind the farmhouse Finding something that isn’t you Something that’s not quite right ……... (Disappeared) (Disappeared) Left me here Missing you my dear Roaming beach and the backwoods Wandering hither and yon, keep Going until the break of dawn And on and on and on and on and on La la la lalala (Disappeared) La la la lalala (Disappeared) La la la lalala (Disappeared) And on and on Since you’re gone the air’s gone wrong Your shadow’s haunting me, my dear …… So far, so near Hunting up by the barrows Anxious out on the moors Seeking answers within the fog (Knew it all along) Hoping for news on the tele Watching the phone on the wall Feigning hope you’ll be found at all That’s all that’s all that’s all that’s all that’s all That’s all that’s all

Gunshots fire in the street Brides squeal in delight ‘TIL DEATH DO US PARTY Car bombs blast in the square The grooms comb their hair ‘TIL DEATH DO US PARTY Rich white men destroy the land Let’s party, let’s party, let’s party Wedding bands play in the sand Let’s party, let’s party, let’s party We’re gonna bring the fun ‘Til the party’s done And we’ll party, we’ll party, we’ll party We’re gonna bring the fun ‘Til our lives are done Then we’ll party, we’ll party, we’ll party There’s no future or past Make the moment last ‘TIL DEATH DO US PARTY Take us home when you leave Our CDs are cheap ‘TIL DEATH DO US PARTY Darkness amplifies the light Sunshine still surrounds the night Everything’s gonna be all right Let’s party, let’s party, let’s party We’re gonna bring the fun ‘Til the party’s done And we’ll party, we’ll party, we’ll party We’re gonna bring the fun ‘Til our lives are done Then we’ll party, we’ll party, we’ll party We’re gonna bring the fun ‘Til the party’s done And we’ll party, we’ll party, we’ll party We’re gonna bring the fun ‘Til our lives are done Then we’ll party, we’ll party, we’ll party

We Want Your Soul 02:51

“Demon Speak” CHARLES: I’ll translate but my Northern Demon is a little rusty. This is a Corporate memo from the Souls Receivable Dept. re: Demon extraction and past due human souls. Many of you may not be aware that demons have no souls and are considered third tier oppressed minorities. #FreeDemon #DemonLivesMatter At any rate, the collections on all unpaid invoices has been accelarated so we are here to collect the demon’s possessing you aaaand your soul to fuel the creation of a new hybrid demon/human entity. You may not have noticed the fine print on your ticket giving Infernal International—a wholly owned subsidiary of Infernal Intergalactic and Universal—all right to any sundry spirits attached to the demons currently possessing y’all. So the point of this exercise and this machine is to extract both the demon in you and your soul simultaneously, giving birth to a new superior being, a demon with a soul. Thank you all for coming here We did not lie so let’s be clear There’s just one thing we want from you The contract’s signed in blood by you (and you, and you and you) And now the debt is due We’ve got your soul You’re not using it anyway!!!

Playing To The Alien 02:04
lyrics
buy track
I went on stage on a Saturday night in a bar I had never been. The lights so hot that I had a fright no one showed but an alien. I can’t remember how I got to this place, to home I was trying to go. I looked to the sky and what did I find in my eye was a ufo. Playing To The Alien 4x I played my songs to the alien who was drinking from a glowing glass. His green skin bubbles and his eyeballs bulged, his forehead emitting gas. Three songs later he got up from his chair, clearly flipping the bird. He opened the door and stepped outside to the third moon of Jupiter. Playing to the alien 4x I said out loud I am done with this place. Is there any food. Barkeep shrugged and offered a plate of his wife’s most recent brood. I too a few bites then puked on his face, it tasted like goddamn gruel. He picked me up and threw me outside into a chlorine pool. Playing to the alien 4x
