Ambush Journalism (free) 03:49
There are jackals in the parlor with suspicious slight of hand They've cast me as their slaughter and I play lion to their lamb They have fangs behind the curtain, they play host upon the stage Singing all their dirges out to all of the unsaved. I don't care about stormy weather. Fuck that, I'm gonna live forever. And even though my veins are tethered, I'm still fucking with the world's endeavors. There are rabbits in the garden and the crop is yielding bare. They whisper to their mother, who prays for a better year. Yet the snake beneath the bushes knows the dangers of the damned. It took one tree to give life and one fruit to curse a man.

Cheapthrill 03:09
Your teachers are lying, your parents are wrong Aw, hell no.. The dancefloors aren't gone (We made millions in backrooms, We're settling scores) Turning boys with bad tempers Into delicate girls Now wait in line And take your time Because you're all mine What a shame, you're just another buzzkill Waiting in line for the cheap thrill Now you want it - Oh now you want it, huh? That's a shame, man - take another pill! There are spectres in waiting There are ghosts in the halls (And this whole damn city is waiting to fall) But who can save us from taxes and death When they've already taken our last, dying breath?
3.
You went away, went away to the city lights A world I never knew that well And as they greeted you with their open arms, I was the one to say 'farewell'.. The words we spoke in your quiet room Under ceiling fan and sheets Were like a trench dug in a battlefield I never thought we would retreat But you know all our friends Turned out to be wolves And you know all our love Was the love of fools We wander through the night Searching for our light And if we die, We did the very best we could I spent three nights awake now And you have dressed it up so well So far the guilt has collected here Upon my restless frame Despite my imperfections They can't say I didn't try The things left out of the darkness And let out in the light

Devil (free) 03:13
They say they saw the devil alive in you They say they saw the devil alive in you God is coming on a white horse riding Oh, you better repent by morning They say God only gives one warning Day by day, my magnolias are blooming Night by night, my garden is dying Oh, you better repent by morning Judgement always comes without a warning Day by day, my magnolias are blooming By night, I have tried to save my life ("God is coming on a white horse riding, God is coming on a white horse!") They say they saw the devil alive in you Boy, they saw the devil and he danced in you God is coming on a white horse riding "Then I saw the beast rising up out of the sea.." They say they saw the devil alive in you They say they saw the devil, boy, he danced in you But, I will not be afraid of the dark.. I will not fear.
