Every. Single. Stinkin thing you say. Either Cuts. Maims. Makes me feel OK. 2,3,4!

Coming Down High
03:13
|
|||
Breathing soot in an airtight room. Rationed gasp of toxic gloom. A parking space will be mine soon as sparks explode inside this tune, on fire..On fire!
Cauterized on a deaf balloon. Blow it up and taste the boom. Therapy will make you croon about the sparks exploding in this tune.. on fire. When your Coming Down High.
Lyricise on a third verse soon. My thoughts are random on the Endor Moon. A parking space will be mine soon as spark explode in this tune...on fire!
When you're coming down high. Coming Down High. Coming Down High.Coming Down High.

Perfect State of Grace
03:04
|

Did you feel the sheets of incandescent roar. Spinning past your spine, until it hits your core. Did you feel the pain? did it sting your brain now.
Chorus: Sitting upstairs with your feet on the ground. You look better now with your face making sounds. Sitting here in a blank array. I guess it's just a Perfect State of Grace now.
Spinning past the Mars collected in your soul. Fishing to and from an unprotected toll. Did you hear the ring? Did you hear the phone now?
Chorus:
Perfect State of Grace Now!

And when I smash your mailbox still. I see your face encounter the grill

Thank you for being there. Thank you for early care. Thank you for going to war. Thank you for every chore.
Thank you for always being there. Thank you for every earthly care. I'm glad... we made amends.. 3X .I know I'll see you again!
They all cry when they close the lid. Talked about everything you did. Nothing left, but Love in spades. Complete honor in a naval parade.
Now I notice little miracles. Every tree and every animal. I'm glad we made amends. 3X I know I'll see you again!
It hurt so bad when you had to go away.

Pardoned by faith in the middle of the night. Notorious dreams but the visions are out of sight. Paltry qualms and they knew it all along.
When are you Coming Home?
Crying at dawn while your fever was running high. Graduate life but they said that you up and died. Paltry qualms and they knew it all along.
2X When are you coming Home. 2X The Tracers won't leave me Alone.

Burning your bridges like there is no tomorrow. Suck and we'll borrow and we'll send you home. Hanging all prisoners and shooting all hostages. Looting your country till you feel let down. Why don't you sit right down.

Fraud
03:13
|

Dosing out on pure affliction. Your brain stops writing home. Self absorbed on loose leaf fiction , spiral flushing cone. Cross the examination. Pencil in your drone. Phasers set to stun, Eased on convolution. Channells eyes are numbed.
Chorus:
You got a love but you know it only breeds a Fraud. Music notes I love have been morphed into a living Fraud. It's a Fraud.
Moving words with plastic diction. They've cauterized your loan. Tying Knots in mental constriction, Deleting all you've known. Pass the examination. pencil in your drone. This lyric has a rhyme. We scream it all the time. The music is our own.
Chorus:
3X It's a Fraud
Bridge:
To bad our race has gone down hill. Ignoramus people got no will. Take a Dart and you are set to die. Can't you tell by the horrible look in my eye?

Knife to a Gunfight
03:32
|
|||
Hold on baby, wait a minute now. I forgot my knife but you brought your skillet pow.
Bleeding from the face, it's so unsettling. It all started with a shotgun wedding.
Casualties are mounting like a Pickets charge there. Over run in ruin like an uncivil union.
Pre Chorus:
Trying so hard, with all our might. Looks like we brought a knife to gunfight.
Chorus:
Knife to a gunfight. Branded by stars. Knife to a gunfight. Smith and Wesson wins it's so out of sight. uh oh!
