I stay up so restless
Almost every night
Afraid I might give in
To the blinding light
I was once told that I looked like
A younger version of T.S. Eliot
from some portrait
When I bite my tongue
I’m hearing shots fired now
So get down on the floor
The Armies will kill me now
Just to settle the score
Heaven likes me in the middle
No more no less
No greatness no emptiness
Or cheap success
So I’ll stay here, just be here
As I always am
Please love me, infect me
Don’t give a damn
And the in- between days
Are always better than the rest
No one wants an abandoned child
Or an unwelcome guest
I’m hearing shots fired now
So get down on the floor
The Armies will kill me now
Just to settle the score

He's gotta Compton strut and a Hollywood mind
Got one in the chamber, forever so inclined
He's smooth, a streetwise cat
With fit polos and a Kangol hat
A Benz SL and a bag full of dough
Just a matter of time, them bullets gonna flow
He's smooth, a streetwise cat
With fit polos and a Kangol hat
With a Compton strut and a Hollywood mind
Got one in the chamber, forever so inclined

You had it bad
You’ve had it rough
You’ve seen the worst
It made you tough
Don’t look
Don’t look
Don’t look at me
You need a break
You need some cash
You lost your way
Misplaced your stash
You’re on the wrong side of the tracks
And you can’t find your way back
To me
You can’t make rent
Can’t pay those bills
Times running out
Can’t buy a thrill

YOU BUILD A FIRE
BUT NOTHING KEEPS YOU WARM
BUT THE HATE YOU EXHALE
MY BROTHERS TAKING UP ARMS
SICK AND TIRED
JUST LOOK HOW EASY IT IS
HOW QUICK YOU’LL FALL TO YOUR KNEES
HOW QUICK THEY SPREAD THIER DISEASE
AND YOU BELIEVE IT
WE’RE GONE…IT’S A CONVERSATION NOW
WE’RE GONE…JUST SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND OBEY
TURN YOUR HEAD AND LOOK AWAY
THERE’S NOTHING TO SEE HERE
THERE’S NOTHNG TO SAY
WE’VE GOT YOUR BEST INTEREST AT HEART
TRUST IN THE PROCESS
STAY 6 FT APART
WE’RE GONE…IT’S A CONVERSATION NOW
WE’RE GONE…THEY HOPE YOU NEVER FIGURE OUT
WHAT THEY SAY, WHAT THEY DID, WHAT THEY DO, WHAT THEY’VE DONE
WE’RE GONE…JUST SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND OBEY
I COULD HAVE WARNED YOU
I COULD HAVE TOLD YOU
WOULD YOU LISTEN
IT’S ONLY FREEDOM THEY SAY
IT’S A SMALL PRICE TO PAY
WOULD YOU LISTEN
DO AS I SAY, OR WE’LL PUT YOU AWAY
WOULD YOU LISTEN
IT’S ONLY FREEDOM THEY SAY
IT’S A SMALL PRICE TO PAY
AND YOU LISTENED
WE’RE GONE…IT’S A CONVERSATION NOW
WE’RE GONE…THEY HOPE YOU NEVER FIGURE OUT
WHAT THEY SAY, WHAT THEY DID, WHAT THEY DO, WHAT THEY’VE DONE
WE’RE GONE…JUST SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND OBEY
OBEY

AG Y’all - Wasting Away
02:40

W-wa-wasting away
It seems like we’re running out of time
It feels like I'm losing my whole mind
Twisting like a pistol, blowing in the breeze
Notha fallen angel, knocked down on his knees
Hear the rolling thunder, die another day
Wasting away
Cast off like a sailor lost at sea
Quite sure that the blame is all on me
Dragging like a death knoll, fallen hard from grace
Sabotage myself, like a hammer to the face
Sky high expectations, no more games to play
Wasting away
Wait til the music stops
Wait til the DJ drops
Hold on til there's no more to say
Waste wastin away
Wait til the music goes
Wait til the DJ explodes
Hold on til there’s no more to say
Waste wastin away

v1:
You never know, going in, if you're gonna get out
The best we can do is just trust the sound
That little voice inside your head
-----
Before you know it, you're getting knocked down
It might be too late to turn it around
There might be time to fight instead
ch:
It's never a mistake to say goodbye
It's always right to look in the eyes
of the ones you love, while they're here
-----
You should always offer a warm hello
'cause you don't know when it's their time to go
So, as much as you can, keep 'em near

There's a place that we all know
We feel it in our bones
The moment has arrived
The rubber meets the road
It's no longer in the past
A memory in mind
but it hasn't happened yet
A future undefined
The here and now is where we're living
And still it seems we always miss it
Cause we don't know
What’s in the way is the way
See the problem that we make
The source of our mistakes
Is that we spend our whole life sleeping
Instead of awake
So we sacrifice the now
At the altar of our fears
And give in to the monsters
Of the past or future years
And when life turns and twists inside us (as it always will)
The obstacles render us helpless
Until we see
What’s in the way is the way
I cannot begin to know
The depths of every soul
Your story is not mine
But I'd like to think it'd show
That we cannot control what comes
The challenges we find
Are opportunities to embrace
A different frame of mind
So hold my hand, we'll go together
Heaven or hell it doesn't matter
Either way it’s still the same
Every day after day
Now we know
What's in the way
Is the way

someone told me that she said
Something someone said he said
Someone’s running around
I could build a wall between
you and me and that whole scene
Feels like I’m ‘bout to drown
But if you wanna hit the
Bottom of the well
‘fore this whole thing runs dry
Truth gonna wake you
Like I ring the warning bell
You gotta look me in the eye
Oh, the last thing I wanted
So hunted and haunted
can’t believe all those things that you heard
Oh, that song that they’re singing
Those lies they’ve been bringing
Swear I’ll make good on my word
Good on my word
Maybe I’ve been mixing up
The signals I’ve been sending up
Seems like I get confused sometimes
But don’t make no mistake
When it comes to make or break
won’t be paying for another man’s crimes
But if you wanna hit the
Bottom of the well
‘fore this whole thing runs dry
Truth gonna wake you
Like I ring the warning bell
You gotta look me in the eye
Oh, the last thing I wanted
So hunted and haunted
can’t believe all those things that you heard
Oh, that song that they’re singing
Those lies they’ve been bringing
Swear I’ll make good on my word
Good on my word

Adelaide, sweet Adelaide
A shilling for your time
I’ve been hearing chatter
While I’m workin’ on the line
Adelaide, sweet Adelaide
You always lookin’ fine
Please lay down your dagger
And ease weary mind
Adelaide it’s my birthday
I’d love to make you mine
Lose ourselves in longing
For the love of lust and wine
Hungry blaze of summer days
And endless toll booth chime
Something wicked blows our way
And the Orleans Parish line
Adelaide, sweet Adelaide
My Dixieland sunshine
I heard the lawmen clamor
Caught Hell in Caroline
Adelaide, sweet Adelaide Bb
There’s a killer on the loose
They say he hears apostles pray
God’s children meet the noose
Adelaide it’s my birthday
I’d love to make you mine
Lose ourselves in longing
For the love of lust and wine
Hungry blaze of summer days
And endless toll booth chime
Some wicked blows our way
And the Orleans Parish line
Adelaide, sweet Adelaide
I heard your daddy too
He’s burnin’ up the roadway at
Mississippi Waterloo
Adelaide, this sweet Thursday
Is coming to a close
Come now sit beside me
You’re the one I love the most
Adelaide it’s my birthday
I’d love to make you mine
Lose ourselves in longing
For the love of lust and wine
Hungry blaze of summer days
And endless toll booth chime
Some wicked blows our way
And the Orleans Parish line
Wicked is the wicker man
The wolf’s approach is due
A highway man, the devil’s hand
And his fate is up to you
Adelaide, sweet Adelaide
My Dixieland sunshine
Don’t you lose that dagger
I’m afraid it’s almost time

Frozen Time
When I go back to where I began
Straight from the middle to the end
The icicles hanging on the vine
lost in my frozen time
When I step into what was once mine
Faded memories lost in a rhyme
I hear a distant melody
lost in my frozen time
When the sun goes down beneath
the mountain crest
I feel just like an uninvited guest
I was waiting out the consequence
I tried to justify my defense
When I’m searching for a sign
lost in my frozen time

I
On the edge of the Known
Past the bright Fields of Flame
In the Lost Halls of Stone
There’s a curse of a name
Inscribed on the yoke
Beamed to seal tight the room
That if clearly spoke
Will release from his tomb
The breath of Azazel
II
If the Seven Black Teeth
Are returned to the Cup
And it is placed in the Wreath
Before the sun can come up
Then from the high twisting spires
To the sick, drooping trees
Through the whispers of liars
We will spread the disease
III
To devour and to swarm
To tower and to storm
To acquire and to steal
To fire and to kill
To corrode and consume
To erode and to doom
To implode and to bloom
To release from his tomb
The breath of Azazel

Shane Doggett - Sway Me

Young man, you take it like it's handed down
Found no fault- didn't want to
I've just grown to... pry
In time you pick a bone with three of 'em
Father, Son, and The Holy Ghost
What'd you find?
Why'd you lose it?
Where'd it go?
And have you crossed the line to now?
Sway me- I'm open to some truth
Sway me
Call out the bit about the animals
In a march of two-by-two
I've just grown to... pry
In time you pick it all apart
