You put me right back where you found me I refuse to leave my mud Why would I? Amongst the shit I thrive You don't want to see What I become If I ever get out there 1 2 3 4 There's something inside me It tells me to destroy Keep the wild away Protect me from myself I never want to know Where I come from Why the hell would you? Just keep me full I'll stay good
2.
I'm going back to the trees Down here is no place for me at all Drank more milk than I need The worst part of it You got the best out of me The ground takes The ground eats us alive The ground, it eats us alive! Spits out our seeds Continues on feeding We are just dirt meat So come up I think you might like Maybe even love what you see There once was a bad man I'm told I look like him They won't let me forget Now it's clear to me He's not back, he never left No more deals to be made Fool me once You'll get to see He's still out there He's still waiting There's no doubt he's waiting
3.
The nights still young I'm wide awake Before going home Maybe stop for a drink Or I could keep heading south Eventually time will take me Right back to where I was Cutting off the hand Waiting for the light Eating the rational The sun, a horrid sketch Feeding the belly of man First light approaches A confrontation Without me There is no them The chair is too big Let alone the shoes to fill Best of luck to you In spite I'd sink the whole ship And go down with it Just to prove a point Put out the flames Start to move in Do not disturb the ghosts We hope for better things It will rise from the ashes We hope for better things Put out the flames Start to move in Do not disturb the ghosts
4.
Get this off me I shouldn't have to carry it Around anymore Let it drag you down I've got some catching up to do How can anyone Get used to the dark? Under the lights We live like rats From inside my cage Everyone on the outside Looks the same Nothing fits right anymore It's all too big It's all too small It's all too short It's all too long What's old is new again I cut my teeth in this business Now look at me, look at me go Once a feral hog Now split over coals Steamin' for the roast

The will to win The will to attack The will to live The will to die The wolf says go The first of 5 waves Knock down East bridges No retreat The roads next No retreat The sky was whistling A 2nd wave comes A deliberate target, it's working out. Permissible destruction under guise of law The condor covers North to South If you hit what you're aiming for is it really a casualty? Narrow streets filled with panic And nowhere to flee "Before God and before History, which will judge us all" Scorch the earth but take no responsibility. The will to resist is not working out. It's reticent quiet and looming, under guise of law The will to win The will to attack The will to live The will to die The secret denial of cowards A successful failure.
