Strip Off Your Skin

Relax baby cuz you're going down
Relax baby cuz you're going down
Don't make that face as it falls flat against the ground
Calm down sugar don't act so surprised
Calm down sugar don't act so surprised
When you're living in shit you know that will draw the flies
(Yes it will)
Pride comes before the fall
You suck it down - you want it all
Your heads a top - it pops right off
Take your fill while walking tall
Chorus:
Strip off your skin
We can begin
Stop wearing that suit
Cuz you're hiding the truth
Don't sleep honey cuz they're after you
Don't sleep honey cuz they're after you
Just because you can't see them doesn't make it less true
Hush now darling don't make so much noise
Hush now darling don't make so much noise
When you're acting like an object they will treat you like a toy
(Like you are)
CHORUS
Pride comes before the fall
You suck it down - you want it all
Your heads a top - it pops right off
Take your fill while walking tall
CHORUS

Whittle whittle worn away
Scratch and scrape - break and fray
Muddled down a shake is made
From the ash of another day
With a pinch of discontent
Sprinkle in free range contempt
2 cups of sin - mixed in repent
A tablespoon of what was meant
Garnish plate with good intention
Pick the plant of growing tension
Don't forget the apprehension
Probably not worth a mention
Simmer slowly is the trick
Served along with pins and pricks
Finger foods for the dead and sick
Sweet meats tender tasty licks
A meal fit for modern kings
Like flightless birds with broken wings
Useless lumps of shapeless things
A throat that's cut no song to sing
Animals of present past
In a future not meant to last
Still not full and eating vast
Going strong but fading fast
Chorus:
A recipe for the modern age
The time has come to set the stage
So glad it's over turn the page
Subdue your hate and calm your rage
No more times for wants or needs
Consuming more than a disease
But what you get is what you see
So come on now and follow my lead
The menu's written long ago
Much further back than you know
Don't hesitate when it's time to go
It's coming fast so don't move slow
The concept leaves you wanting more
Seconds please then out the door
Leave the money on the floor
Back to the streets just like a whore
Come get what you need
CHORUS
When it's over turn and smile
you're free now from that denial

Mr. Keepsake

I prayed for you and there you are
Now that you're here - you won't go far
And if you go - you will run and tell
We can't have that - he won't do well
I stop and hear the floorboards creak
They tell me now that you ca't speak
I hear you there below the grain
Beneath the space removed from pain
There is a wooden box
Where Mr. Keepsake talks
He says to me
"No need to hurry take it slow"
He says to me
"Keep it all they're never know"
He says to me
"Now pick up the parts it's time to go"
He says to me
"Listen to me I"ll set you free"
You gave your heart to someone else
I put it right there on the shelf
Decaying with your wanting eyes
And ruby lips once spewing lies
You thought you had the best of me
But mister mister helped me see
The best kept secrets are the ones
Involving tape, blindfolds, and guns
There is a wooden box
Where Mr. Keepsake stalks
He says to me
"They don't understand you like I do"
He says to me
"They'll use you up when they are through"
He says to me
"There's nothing left out there for you"
He says to me
"Listen to me I"ll set you free"
And when they came to take me
Away from you - away from he
To send me to the scaffold high
I knew at once I had to die
They looked they looked into the box
But mister mister can't be caught
And here and hereI feel the knot
All alone again to hear him talk
He says to me

Zero Hour

Stand down - stand up
March now - corrupt
Left foot - right next
Black soot - collects
Front lines - fallout
Dark times - no doubt
Fox holes - lie still
Our goals - let's kill
Chorus:
Zero hour
Countdown
You kiss the bullet as you fall right to the ground
It isn't over til the white flash burns your skin
When you bend over will you tell me when it's in
Cold sweat - hot lead
No threat - he's dead
No fear - full force
We're here - of course
Loose lips - reap lies
Insects - deny
Our sects - my god
Infect - death squads
Chorus (ext)
Zero hour
Countdown
You kiss the bullet as you fall right to the ground
It isn't over til the white flash burns your skin
When you bend over will you tell me when it's in
Zero Hour
Begins
The only meaning is the measure of your sins
This war ain't over til the victims taste the lead
So watch your back when they come for you instead
Yes they're coming for you
Stand down - stand up
March now - corrupt
Now where to go
We're here - you know
Chorus (ext)

Baby sweet baby there is no time to cry
Faster dig faster so many need to die
Unspeakable you said to me
My brother don't you lie
The voices told me you were there
Can you please tell me why
What did they do to you
Or tell me what'd they say
You had to purge them of their flesh
And make them go away
You can fertilize this land
With their supple bones
Carve a path with the mass
Forgottens and slones
Sullen pictures hung like leaves
Black and white black and blue
From the broken wooden trees
Are the faces we hardly knew
Baby sweet baby there is no time to cry
Faster dig faster so many need to die
Opposition wears me thin
I know I know I must
Cleanse the gene pool of the filth
With vigor and disgust
The weak are thus cuz they will fall
That's all they know they heed the call
And pave the way for my success
I'll beat them down til they confess
