V1 This king hunts on and left the sky, Undo the wrong his sons decide Pack up your sanctuaries I’m better when I can see Our king has gone in half the stride All things are done and now we find A soul that’s safe and burning At peace when someone’s hurting Chorus Burn her down, see her run Bring her down, to none. V2 Be with us, hope, and say goodbye This sound is haunting in the sight Your back is somethin awful You shrink into the hollow This foliage strung upon the ride Don’t take or eat to satisfy These robbers of a good thing Let hunger bring you your rage Chorus Burn her down, see her run Bring her down, to none.

V1 On the brink of heaven Armies hold the line at night Burning all Bursting on Wind and a sea of feathers Wings of string and dust they sing Blessing us Or besting is Chorus Will we see a dawn today x3 V 2 All the leaves shimmer And drop as angels leap to get her First to fall Turns to salt Fail to be a preacher Someone will have to fight them off Fast they are ‘Cause fast they must Chorus Will we see a dawn today x3
3.
V In this hour, in this hour we save The stuck ones and they will bend every knee So you dawn a wheel and a bow of rage and as they say “Salem waits and we shall remain” Chorus You know they sing to ease the sting They know the things that we will bring For he is here, the end you fear So wear your face and take your fate And Beat your bones and break your teeth

V1 Give me another chance, maybe another way If I did ‘n behalf I fear that you might break Right now I need a break, to mediate the rain If you’d just been happy when you said your grace Well I got another cause, if not the one that you want I could take it back but you would be empty If you let them do this they’ll take it all from us Chorus Oh, but why, You know, No you don’t But why V2 I’ve got it all I’m a little one I can see the road And I’m never wrong Give it up old man I’m alone tonight Didn’t ask for your gut or your dang advice So you need a friend, and another name, To put on your list Of abandoned things Well I’ll trek through the ponds and the garden rows If you need what you want then we’re all caught up You’re a little worn And your hungry You could get a drink But you’d make a scene I’m dead and done I live a lonely life In the desert with your treasure you can rot and die Chorus Oh, but why, You know, No you don’t But why

V1 I’m on, past done, and I’m ready to go No more, this hum, I have heard it before I’m sick of all this say so, She walks and stomps in a valley of hope It died at home in seventy four She says it’s still not safe though It’s not stable Chorus Well it was safe and it was stable last time I checked. And hoppin round on a broken foot ain’t best. And if you wanted to leave then just say goodbye Didn’t have to make us wonder where you were all summer V2 Someone will take and leave you what’s left. Inside your head there’s a sweet little friend Who tells you all is fatal. He passed his test and he’s ready to die But now he waits for the end of his life Tell me what you would stay for So he escaped home Chorus Well it was safe and it was stable last time I checked. And hoppin round on a broken foot ain’t best. And if you wanted to leave then just say goodbye Didn’t have to make us wonder where you were all summer

V1 Reverend I’m done I don’t want to love It’s cold in Horrow I Wanna lie and steal and take drugs Stuck in sorrow And when I’m out round sundown You’re free to follow Come learn what life is all about And leave your calling Chorus Can’t I lead you again Follow me through the mess V2 Father I don’t I don’t want to know It’s no ones problem I’ve seen the tunnels and the holes Home I’ll call them And if you ever wanna know Just what could solve it Might ask old holy on the throne Watchin all this Chorus Can’t I lead you again Follow me through the mess Final V Reverend I’m done I don’t want to love It’s cold in Horrow I Wanna lie and steal and take drugs Stuck in sorrow And when I’m out round sundown You’re free to follow Come learn what life is all about And leave your calling

V1 Write on, Carry us. “I been runnin from Harm and honor son And we survive. God has made me good And in your sight I would Be, changed what I could, But now I’m alone. Chorus 1 And my pain bleeds of earth The dirt and the soil you were. And this hole in me I’ve earned God I swear that makes it worse V2 Give me back my friends The grave has stollen them To say I miss them all Just ain’t enough On this beach I scream And pray to her and sing Fondly thinking of The things they’d done for me Chorus 2 I’d give anything to ‘ve sung This song to you before you’d gone Now I’ll never get to show Just how much I need you all

Bridge Clink, lock, move A lot of “Amen”, Need, want, bribe, “I got you all man Cuff me lose, and I will be alright Son watch your mouth I will show you This my house I ain’t no new man Best watch out, And I will spare your pride” Chorus But when I arrive, my hair is way too long. And my face falls lower than the sun. V1 Engine’s gone cold On this mornin and my old soul And bones moan and I awoke All hungry again Now the mother of my children left Tied her shoe strings round her neck Found her laced behind the old bar shed And left me with these 7 kids With no plan, screamin Bridge Clink, lock, move A lot of “Amen”, Need, want, bribe, “I got you all man Cuff me lose, and I will be alright Son watch your mouth I will show you This my house I ain’t no new man Best watch out, And I will spare your pride” Chorus But when I arrive, my hair is way too long. And my face falls lower than the sun. V2 All these words I will sing them proud my own All these words I will sing them proud for my home All these words I will sing them proud to my own All these words I don’t sing them Anymore

V1 Gonna suck my soul in Head my fall and Up and battle But she always comes That lady Heathen Father hallow Deliver us from sin And Wichita’s bad men Gonna head my fall and Suck my soul in Up and battle Chorus And you never know Just how she will show Only that she Won’t ever Stop White as the snow Don’t ever be slow To live her up Or cut Her off V2 So I break my sword up Into pieces Seven daggers And I wait in colored Lights to see those Magic shadows Salvation you became For the liars and the shamed So I head my fall up Suck my soul on Up in battle Chorus And you never know Just how she will show Only that she Won’t ever Stop White as the snow Don’t ever be slow To live her up Or cut Her off
