Medic ! ! 06:30
Worse than before! This time was worse than before I sat on my hands picking at my scabs the last time I set sail but this was Worse than before I said, driving sixty miles per hour directly into a yellow brick wall Knowing full well I wouldn't be back or when I would be back The wave of luck that I was at a time and place I know a place I could call home for a while I know how these things happen Say something once it becomes true, know what I mean? You feel it? Do you feel it yet? Mouth foaming Yeah, take it outside, buddy Next time we lock eyes i'm gonna take a fucking chunk out of your neck You'll feel it Next time we cross paths I don't know what I'll do to you Open arms, open terrain, I'll see you on the next, the next Train your hands to call me in event of emergency Mouth foaming As it were Keep it to yourself Heartfelt awws and oozes daemon irrepit callidus

You want a piece of me, buddy? I'll take your eye out, man. These guys... they'll get away with anything. Bad for me, bad for you, bad for business. They'll -----------. That's how I made my millions, I signed the waiver and sent it off, letting it roll over until next year. Why...

Slow down, slow down, let me be your guide Infatuated You'll end up toiling like a mortal Dancing a coroner's dance in the sun You're so serrated, you don't come out for just anyone I can't see How anyone could love you like I do Come now, let's all watch this fool Wallow in his shit It's complicated, you wouldn't get it if you tried. Dancing a coroner's dance in the sun You're so serrated, you don't come out for just anyone I can't see How anyone could love you like I do

You said that last time How many times do I - You said that last time How many times do I have to say it? Rehabilitation is what I breed. Rehabilitation is what you need. I breed, I breed. Talk to yourself in the shower - Who's that in the mirror? Don't know I don't know Rehabilitation is what you need. Rehabilitation is what I breed. I breed, I breed.

Eyes lit up like a house on fire Cryptic stare in the abyss, into the void Cry when it answers your call Faces flick in my peripheral vision I'll come back for you, waiting in the cold For all you're worth in fool's gold. Can you speak up? I won't call you a liar. I can tell when you've slipped back, back in the void. Into the void. Cry when I answer your call Cryptid in my peripheral vision Into the void. I'll come back for you, waiting in the cold For all you're worth in fool's gold. I'll wait for you to die before you're old Collect your worth in fool's gold. I'll come back for you Waiting in the cold For all you're worth in fool's gold (I'll come back for you) To die before you're old Collect your worth in fool's gold.

You see it too, right? It's special In its own right Why can't you make it go away? That trick doesn't work anymore, makes me ache. Another broken heart I'm questioning your integrity, stability now It is your fault, all yours In its own right, own right. As I boarded that plane I felt my troubles leave me I felt whole, with reason I knew a place I could call home for a while She said, "I know how these things happen," I didn't want to say it out loud though. Say something once it becomes true True without flaw True without reason Without pain Consideration True without flaw Without reason Without pain Without, without, without I can see what you're doing

Marauder 04:53
I was working as an aide de camp under General von Klutch. Exacting. Hard man to satisfy. Gave up trying after the first week. There was a saying around the old wardroom - "Never expose your flank to Old Klutchy!" Well, I couldn't take Klutchy another night. So I assembled a modest caravan and hit the trail with Abdul. Ten miles out of that godforsaken place, Abdul came down with the rinderpest, and I had to leave him there to die. There was no other way about it. At the headwaters of the old river, I ran into an old Dutch trader - "The quality runs high," he said. "Matter of fact, I lose money on this - this quality merchandise." Small, and hunchback, missing two of his teeth, I haggled him out of a fair price. The bar was nearly empty. I paid for my drinks, and walked out into the night.

Autofac 06:58
What a roundabout way of dealing with this What an innovative problem Such incoherency hasn't graced the plains, in such a time What a pretty home What a pretty batch of polystyrene houses With a common theme A crackwhore teeming with a spotless gleam of timeless white You are not who you said you were. As the day ticks on And my fingernails grow longer It becomes clear to me now Just how much I need this right now And what I'm willing to do to ensure that this is it, this is it This is what I was dreaming about in my sleep In my dream without you Marbled eye. Glass glutton. Cracked at the dawn, of the dawn. Up at the left of field, in the thickets I'd lie. Put my hand on the fence, blow out my candle, put my other hand on the gun handle. Conditioning in the rare - Don't look cause he's there! But you wouldn't dare get out my hair. I'm in armistice, and i'm dead.
