Comas No, I’m not headed down the highway to hell There’s peace in the valley The blood has been shelved Take what you want What you want is for free Free to take you and for you to take me No, I’m not headed down the highway to hell While lord you’ve been flailing all around with yourself I have been wrestling a dead angry deer and she is still with me after all of these years No, I’m not headed down the highway to hell I’m through with you devils My spirits have sung Take what you want What you want is for free Free to take you and for you to take me No, I’m not head down the highway to hell

Cold Criminals We are cold Cold, cold criminals Solid action Hitting hard cold times Just cold Cold, cold criminals Goddamn, we walk the line But no matter how hard we cry You’ll never hear our sorrid sighs Cold, cold criminals Ain’t it a cold, cold crime We walk the valleys of the dead and turn the rivers crimson red We loved our winters high on crime and the hearts and the hearts we left behind And then they sent Us chained and shackled Free for the last time Devil got us in his plans Devil got us in his plans Devil got us in his hands Cold, cold criminals Goddamn, we walked the line

I Had To Tell You Chaos all around me With its fevered clinging But I can hear you singing In the corners of my brain Every doubt has bound me Every sound of riot Everything is quiet But the song that keeps me sane I can hear your voice Echoing my voice softly I can feel your strength Reinforcing mine If you fear I'll lose my spirit Like a drunkard's wasted wine Don't you even think about it I'm feelin' fine I can hear your voice Echoing my voice softly I can feel your strength Reinforcing mine If you fear I'll lose my spirits Like a drunkard's wasted wine Don't you even think about it I'm feelin' fine

How Do You Sleep? How do you sleep and who do you serve? Stomping your beat Don’t you ever get tired of running us down and bringing your heat The dead don’t forgive and the youth won’t retreat Who do you serve with that badge, officer? People or power, money, your ego There’s a time bomb ticking The thin blue line is tattered to shreds Restless, pissed, frustrated Fed up with your shit How do you sleep with the blood that has pooled? Tear gas, rubber bullets, on the necks that you’ve kneeled Jury, judge, hangman, but you’re just a scared pig Fuck tomorrow, This raw nerve is spent How do you sleep and whom do you serve? How did it feel to watch your precinct burn? There’s drumming outside Is your gun to your head? We’re not asking We’re not begging We are shouting never again
