1.	Death of an Empire 04:18	lyrics	buy track
My bullets are stone now My cards are incomplete Nothing lasts forever Heavy hand got its eye on me or is it just vanish from history Death of an empire Meet me at the city gates (we all die) Ill introduce you to the rest of your life Set it all up to watch it brought down (we all die) The precedent is clear My mind is lost now I think we’re in too deep Vis a vis the river The front surrounds me My cover is blown away Time to pen the treaty Hold me, hold me, she said Just hold me, hold me, she said Then she asked if that which is dead still alive Meet me at the city gates (we all die) Ill introduce you to the rest of your life Set it up to watch it all brought down (we all die) We’ll play it off as divine My bullets are tone now My cards are incomplete Nothing lasts forever Heavy hand got an eye on me or is it just vanish from history Death of an empire Death of an Empire (we all die … nothing lasts forever) x2

A catacomb down in Sinaloa I’ve seen it all and I’ve seen it in his face When they come, they come, they come, those shots fired Watch the game with Alianza Remember the day when they took you away all alone all alone to the other side Holy Smoke not today Open wounds always have their way Holy Smoke get out the way I gotta lose this parade, gotta get away Well what you waiting for, your stoop is getting cold With your life burning through your stove But you prey you prey your time away Second guess those black shadows, every time I conjure up that night I died I died I died a wet homicide All my friends are holding me down, say it again All my friends are holding me down, say it again All my friends are holding me down All my friends are holding me down Gate keeper don’t you sob Gate keeper don’t you sob Gate keeper don’t you sob Gate keeper don’t you sob All my friends are holding me down All my friends are holding me down All my friends are holding me down All my friends are holding me down … say it again All my friends are holding me down, say it again - Holy Smoke not today All my friends are holding me down, say it again - Open wounds always have their way All my friends are holding me down - Holy Smoke get out the way All my friends are holding me down - I gotta lose this parade, gotta get away

I’ve delivered mail I’ve saved lives and allies Faster than a telegraph I choose a mate and remain with whom I’ve chosen And when I mate, I warm the brood Can as much be said of you? Thrust and hold, protection from the cold But if you’re lost at sea, this bird don’t work for the bourgeoisie Honey no, baby please, goggle eyes its all that you see The ending is no surprise Too run down to think, too beat down to drink DOA’s look for some dirty kink Another pneumonic drill to ponder whether you are prey or are you kill Warrant me here, warrant me free, warrant me a pigeon please Warrant me here, warrant me free, warrant me a pigeon please I use the sun and scent I tell you where to run next And those rats, well they’re my friends Detect storms in distant skies Smell the ash that plotting your demise But if you’re lost at sea, this bird don’t work for the bourgeoisie Honey no, baby please, goggle eyes it’s all that you see The ending is no surprise Too run down to think, too beat down to drink DOA’s look for some dirty kink Another pneumonic drill to ponder whether you are prey or are you kill Warrant me here, warrant me free, warrant me a pigeon please Warrant me here, warrant me free, warrant me a pigeon please Warrant me here, warrant me free, warrant me a pigeon please Warrant me here, warrant me free, warrant me a pigeon please

Have another lick of me Have another lick of me The taste of honey Have another lick me Well I got the good girl for good and bad I got the good girl she’s good and bad Good things you wish you had I got the good girl for the good and bad Take another look at me Take another look at me Fateful fantasy Take another look at me What did you make of yesterday? What do you make of me today? Keep a lookout What do you make of me today? Well I got the good girl for good and bad I got the good girl she’s good and bad Good things you wish you had I got the good girl for the good and bad I got the good girl I’ve got the good girl Fateful fantasy I’ve got the good girl for the good and bad
5.	Where'd I Go Wrong? 05:43	lyrics	buy track
All the guidance, leads to silence And the manics share a toast Faithful members, ruffled feathers There’s no love lost on this side All consuming, time I’m losing As the eager make their rounds When this sinks in, please patient Don’t push the monster narrative Make memories move along In decided darkness lives a menace But I can and I want to pull myself out from Where I don’t belong, where id go wrong? Head all clogged, guilty roadblocks But the tools are so hard to find Half a life, don’t seem right More of a nightmare than ownership Make memories move along In decided darkness lives a menace But I can and want to pull myself out from Where I don’t belong The irony of what you can’t see, the things that play against me A silent dream, the one where I scream, that you were the one that I would need Make memories move along In decided darkness lives a menace But I can and I want to pull myself out from Where I don’t belong …. Where id go wrong? I go wrong, Where I’d go wrong? A silent dream, the one where I scream, that you were the one that I would need
6.	The Slow Fade 04:15	lyrics	buy track
Conjure up you every night Death has a clean strike Strong woman, that I call mine Strong nature of humankind Wake up, and just breathe Then you’ll walk outta here they’ll see Fat old carcass, who don’t believe In science, let alone you or me Never was I asked to speak, so I’ll say it anyway Where were you when I said that I don’t have all day What no one wants to see – the slow fade Where were you when I Fell down, tried to see this through Judgement comes, and judgement goes The human race is fickle but true Conjure up everything just to be with you Never was I asked to speak, so I’ll say it anyway Where were you when I said that I don’t have all day What no one wants to see – the slow fade Where were you when I said Never was I asked to speak, so I’ll say it anyway Where were you when I said that I don’t have all day What no one wants to see – the slow fade Where were you when I said
7.	War Story 05:51	lyrics	buy track
It’s just a past time that I Didn’t really know was breaking the law It gets easier now that we know how to define it It was a Hittite fall It was a hobby baby Don’t you worry bout me I wont rock the boat Come on and break my heart now Succumb to the cloud that makes one sit life out What does it matter anyway? This never goes away What does it matter anyway? You don’t care either way Love during the daytime Love when we’re away Fear all night Haven’t talked in a while Bout the story line that Once made me smile I wanna be in touch now Have control somehow But I’m not allowed What does it matter anyway? This never goes away What does it matter anyway? You don’t care either way No need for heartache now that I’ve given up I’ve given up on destiny, isn’t that enough? What does it matter anyway? This never goes away What does it matter anyway? You don’t care either way It was a hobby baby Don’t you worry bout me I’ll find a way It was temporary All that talk about me I’ve thrown it all away Time to reconcile with the story line that Once made me smile

Hey, don’t you know that I’m just doomed But otherwise, can we compromise At least that’s what, I’ve been told At least I aint King Leopold Ooh, it’s a ruckus baby, the more I see something I don’t like When you confiscate my melody of goodbyes It’s a rainy day in Purchase baby Gotta hold on to me when you think you’ll fall into a ditch Made for water still, stagnant overflow It aint where you wanna go Don’t you see that I’m just tired But otherwise I oblige Through a telescope revolution At least I aint King Leopold Ooh, it’s a ruckus baby, the more I see something I don’t like When you confiscate my melody of goodbyes It’s a rainy day in Purchase baby Gotta hold on to me when you think you’ll fall into a ditch Made for water still, stagnant overflow It aint where you wanna go It’s a rainy day in Purchase baby, gotta feed the hand that takes you for a bitch Same for cultural spells Motels, cocktails, the more I see myself [All babies look the same / well its alright now / all babies look the same / all babies look the same / but its alight now]

And I’m coming back Ill say it again He said come back to come back to the original point So I go just like a wounded child feeding on lies I go back, I go back try to make these choices mine What’s the reward, fall on the sword, just for being me It’s the judgment, would you agree, I guess we’ll see But its over now, I can relate I know where I’m going now, so I can be late So soft spoken my friend Go get carried away I know its over now, I can relate When I say it in a song I can feel it again When I say it to my son, will he come back again He come back, to come back, to meet my demand When its over, its over, never to come back again Well there must be a means to this end Or is it pretend till the end my enduring friend But its over now, I can relate I know where I’m going now, so I can be late So soft spoken my friend Go get carried away I know it’s over now, so I can relate Run down the time, I can swear I find my footing when I walk around sometimes When there’s so much to prove, we keep beating down the one we know we oughta be Who we oughta, who we oughta be He said come back to the original point So I go back just like a child feeds on lies Try to make these choices mine But there must be a means to this end Or is it pretend till the end My enduring friend
11.	Vein of Vanity 04:34	lyrics	buy track
Waiting for my time, time flies Gotta get it right before I die – I can’t wait Think I’m still, still alive Inside, this time will be no different We all cant wait First thought shouldn’t be that this Place would be good to die In the wake of repair So put off by your amusement When all we needed was a conversation We all have to wait It’s not easy to please me, when you know I’m not the same How is it that happy is your cue to intervene? I’m like, like wired In a harvest of death Gotta convince you to connect My mom’s been a weeping Giving the old past a new life Soldiers charge for one last fight It’s not easy to please me, when you know I’m not the same How is it that happy is your cue to intervene?
