Down to Ash
03:03
|

Do you always have to find the fight?
Always see the World in black and white?
Got some need but nowhere to go
Don’t let it! Don’t let it!
Watching pictures into fading blurs
Stack the past into a blackened world
Every word is someone saying ‘no.’
Don’t let it! Don’t let it!
Burn, life down to ash
Don’t become infected with your enemy
Mind ripping the scars
Don’t become infected with your enemy
Amen.
Whose man?
Can the answers only lead to more?
Only hearing what the others say
Only hearing what the others say
Blinders on so you can see the way
Growing weary on this dreary day
Something tells me you’ll never survive
Just let it! Just let it!
Early memories that you’ll never get back
Thoughts erased and painted black
Something tells me you’ll never survive
Just let it. Just let it.
Burn, life down to ash
Don’t become infected with your enemy
Mind ripping the scars
Don’t become infected with your enemy
Amen.
Whose man?
Can the answers only lead to more?
Only hearing what the others say
Only hearing what the others say

Gravel Pusher
02:59
|
|||
Pedal crushed against the face of the floorboards
While your khaki tank, it cuts in the scene
Saw me coming as you slipped in the way
Now my treads of black smoke to a screech
Slap your face, I could…
Twist your wreck
Off this pavement, I’d
Break your neck
Low and slow, we ride
Gravel pusher
Low and slow, we ride
Gravel pusher
Slowly dying all these hours inside
Trapped inside this cage, filling with rage
Saw me coming, kicking, ripping away
As my treads of black smoke to a screech
Slap your face, I could…
Twist your wreck
Off this pavement, I’d
Break your neck
Low and slow, we ride
Gravel pusher
Low and slow, we ride
Gravel pusher
Slap your face, I could…
Twist your wreck
Off this pavement, I’d
Break your neck

Spiraling
01:41
|
|||
Wake up and pull yourself up from your bootstraps again
Now’s the time,
You’re gonna turn it all around
You’ve got no choice
Spiraling
Surely seems the way
To live a life
That has gone astray
Stand back
And watch it all crumble apart
At least the pain is real
Wash it down
All those resentments you embrace
Mean everything
Spiraling
Surely seems the way
To live a life
That has gone astray

All of This
03:22

Running
From yourself
Like it’s a sport
There’s no way around
Sinking
Is the only way you know how
Just fall away, just fall away
Because…
There’s no sense pushing on
Try as you might, with all of your might
You’ll find there’s little left in your fight
It’s time to make a choice…
Do you care enough to try?
Is there…
Any sense in pushing on?
There’s no sense in all of this
There’s no sense in all of this
There’s no sense in all of this
There’s no sense in all of this
There’s no sense in all of this
There’s no sense in all of this
There’s no sense in all of this
There’s no sense
There’s no sense
There’s no sense in all of this
There’s no sense in all of this
There’s no sense in all of this
There’s no sense in all of this

I Had it Coming
02:52
|
|||
My words of anger spit from my mouth,
and rip a scar in you
Inside this moment nothing is clear,
An altered point of view
I don't get it, thick headed
No filter in this rage
So I let it all out
I had it coming to me
I had a coming to me
This red is all that I see
I got the snap of your fist
Insisting, fighting— only I'm right
Your side ain't coming through
I’m blinded, ignited this pyre in me,
I spit the ash of you
I don't get it, thick headed
No filter in this rage
So I let it all out
I had it coming to me
I had a coming to me
This red is all that I see
I got the snap of your fist
I got the snap of your fist.

Say Hi to God for Me
02:33
|
|||
Don’t even think it
You never wanted this
It’s something you’ll never miss
Face it when you breathe…
You can’t because you seethe
No likelihood of reprieve
No more master plan
As if there ever was
A path for you and I
I really think
We’re simply all alone
In fact, I don’t mind
You’ll never take a chance on any of this
Your heart bleeds out so much you’ll never wake up
Fear not, I’m watching over you
Running shit the best I can
Always fucking up, this job of mine
Trying hard to toe the line
Gather all around, don’t make a sound
Just sit and watch us bleed
Gather all around, your thoughts are not your own
Say ‘hi’ to God for me
Say ‘hi’ to God for me
Say ‘hi’ to God for me
Say ‘hi’ to God for me

Rebel
02:45
|
|||
We stand up every day
To everything you say
This fight a choice I make
I am a rebel
You hold this light to me
A blackened prophesy
You gave this life to me
I am a rebel
It’s a trap.
This road you took was black, a loaded scam
To rule beside the darker hand
To save a life you once had planned
Burnt down in ash to half a man
You bred this force in me
A blackened legacy
You gave this life to me
I am a rebel
It’s a trap.
We battle on.

Blue Eyes Black
03:00
|
|||
Look up to the sky and tell me what you see
Look up to the sky and tell me what you see
The sky is turning black
Shadows all around us and we’re going down
Shadows all around us and we’re going down
Blue eyes are turning black
You’ve never, you’ve never gone away
You’ve never, you’ve never gone away

Down to Ash (Single)

Do you always have to find the fight?
Always see the World in black and white?
Got some need but nowhere to go
Don’t let it! Don’t let it!
Watching pictures into fading blurs
Stack the past into a blackened world
Every word is someone saying ‘no.’
Don’t let it! Don’t let it!
Burn, life down to ash
Don’t become infected with your enemy
Mind ripping the scars
Don’t become infected with your enemy
Amen.
Whose man?
Can the answers only lead to more?
Only hearing what the others say
Only hearing what the others say
Blinders on so you can see the way
Growing weary on this dreary day
Something tells me you’ll never survive
Just let it! Just let it!
Early memories that you’ll never get back
Thoughts erased and painted black
Something tells me you’ll never survive
Just let it. Just let it.
Burn, life down to ash
Don’t become infected with your enemy
Mind ripping the scars
Don’t become infected with your enemy
Amen.
Whose man?
Can the answers only lead to more?
Only hearing what the others say
Only hearing what the others say
