lyrics

nowadays noah couldnt make it on noahs ark
we try to start the spark, but we waited for the dark
its too dark, and too large, we cant play a part
illuminating night to get a look at the heart

thats broken apart, the target becomes the mark
the black spot signifies the ending of the arc
of life, they brought, the blame and spread it through the park
attracting all of them, like blood to the sharks

the murderer walks, talks, got lost in the cross
the innocent, guilty, by a swarm of hawks
doctors push pills to the kids in the malls
when they're grown up theyll never own up to faults

with credit default, swaps, and legalized crime
twist bags of dope, tight like serpentine
(synthetic opiates) hit the mind from within
but its cheaper in the street let it climb in the skin





if i kept standing, this way on this day
wouldnt sway, would it take your mind off the hurricane
or would it push you further so id have to explain
my state as i stay away from the pain

am i sane cus i question sanity every day
i stay inside the abstract, hard facts will never lay
but i rest my head on the glove compartment
while youre driving to the end of the world that never bent

my friend the world will end when it ends in the end
my friend the world will end in the end
my friend the world will end when it ends in the end
cus im the only friend alive enough not to pretend

and in the harvest this town brought nothing for you,
you reap nothing to lose cus you sow the bad news
with my bad tooth biting hard stabbing at sad truth
go on standing / there aint no one to catch you

and did you think id let you, get down and crawl
like a dressed animal the overthought minimal
its fucked up, youre fucked up, laying in the hall
motherfucker get up, you dont got the time to fall



and taken slowly down, this is the conclusion of the sound
you might turn down, might bury in the ground
either way you cant stop when the syllables abound
either way you cant muffle when i turn that shit around

and ill still keep ghost riding through the ghost town
with my ear to the sound, motherfuckers look at me now
if youre lost then im found, hundred miles under ground
still looking for the ark still trying to take you down
