have a soul of a humbled servant
on the way to the judgement land
bypass the path of wickedness and suffering
hey, hey, hallelujah, well

all of your righteousness 
doesn't guarantee a seat at that table
I’ve never seen so much glory 
slip through the hands
well, well, well, well

all around the campfire they yell, we are humbled servants
in the cities and the towns, where they all are beggin for mercy 
and at the fire sale, when they send in the sentient merchants
i am a humbled servant sir
i didn't spill the first blood on this earth

can't stop me

first mark was the curse of cain
worn like a ball n chain
Sodom and Gomorrah never looked so good, oh no lawd, what have we done again
and when the firetrucks came 
to put out the flames again
i hung my head in shame
what would you do, yea, i thought so

All Is Forgiven

in the empty valley silence is strange
the greasewood fills the air from the rain
i will meet you, don't be late
no questions please, those can wait
but then again, it’s never easy to explain

the king of the sun
lives on the hill
buckshot by the door
charcoal grill
everyone please be on time
step aboard this side step train of mine

alone on the road at night
pushing the clutch we hold on tight
we should be there by early morn
feed the pigs and shuck the corn
throw some shoes and then fade away

i think it's time we fly
take a road trip and leave it all behind

Fadin Away

Lament

set sail at dawn for the trumpet skies
on baritone boats made of angel hides
to this one I've seen the rest were all lies
for this is what we sacrifice for life

on the backs of babes this is where they feed
no time for mercy ya just bleed and bleed 
what is the soul without calamity
for this is what they sacrifice for life

feeding the frenzy and drainin the still
it ain't what you do it's what you will
i was alone but now i can see
all the righteous people pretending they are free

put em all on the rack
and twist it real tight
let the people bellow 
all day and all night

with a huff and puff they'll blow your house down
this is what they sacrifice for life
with the turning of the veil 
a hammer and a nail
this is what they sacrificed for life

For Life

Where there's smoke, there is fire

Happy Ghosts

it's the new summer sun 
in my eye it's no lie 
just breezin with the time
just a moon on the run
let the leaves break in the wind
let the breeze comb my mind
everyone is laughing 
let it end let it all end

it's the new summer sun, just the moon having fun
but i don't hear it talking much 
i don't hear it on the run
just living in a lazy daze
all my troubles are ablaze
so it seems so it seems, thoughts unseen always unseen

come back from the time that has arrived
it's the moonlight coming down
don't run from the time that isn't here
are we all melting are we all melting

it's under the summer sun
when we come undone

it's the new summer sun 
in my eye it's no lie 
just breezin with the time
just a moon on the run
let the leaves break in the wind
let the breeze comb my mind
everyone is laughing 
let it end let it all end
