"Tales Of A Scorched Earth" lyrics
"Tales Of A Scorched Earth"
Farewell, goodnight, last one out turn out the lights
And let me be, let me die inside
Let me know the way through this world of hate in you
'Cause the die is cast and the bitch is back
And we're all dead, yeah, we're all dead
Inside the future of a shattered past
Yeah, yeah, I'd lie just to be real
And I'd die just to feel
Why do the same old things keep on happening?
'Cause beyond my hopes, there are no feelings, yeah
Bless the martyrs and kiss the kids
For knowing better, for knowing this
'Cause you're all whores and I'm a fag
And I've got no mother and I've got no dad
To save me from the wasted, save me from myself
Yeah, yeah, I'd lie just to be real
And I'd die just to feel
Why do the same old things keep on happening?
'Cause beyond my hopes there are no feelings, no
If I believe, if I deceive, if I defend you now that way
Would you believe, could you receive, could you have faith?
No one is, is ever gone
And time is everything and I have none
Everyone's lost just waiting to be found
And everyone's a thought just waiting to fade
So fuck it all, 'cause I don't care
So what, somehow, somewhere we dared
To try to dare, to dare for a little more
Yeah, yeah, I'd lie just to be real
And I'd die just to feel
Why do the same old things keep on happening?
'Cause beyond my hopes, there are no feelings, yeah

Meat Puppets - "Lake Of Fire" Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go to a lake of fire and fry

Can one trick nights feed forty days?
