Train Of Consequences
I'm doing you a favor
As I'm taking all your money
I guess I should feel sorry
But I don't even trust me

There's bad news creeping up
And you feel a sudden chill
How do you do?
My name is Trouble
I'm coming in for the kill
And you know I will

Set the ball a-rolling
I'll be clicking off the miles
On the train of consequences
My boxcar life of style

My thinking is derailed
I'm tied up to the tracks
The train of consequences
There ain't no turning back

No horse ever ran as fast
As the money that you bet
I'm blowing on my cards
And play them to my chest

Life's fabric is corrupt
Shot through with corroded thread
As for me I hocked my brains
Packed my bags and headed west

Symphony Of Destruction
You take a mortal man
And put him in control
Watch him become a god
Watch peoples heads have roll

Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the symphony of destruction

Acting like a robot
Its metal brain corrodes
You try to take its pulse
Before the head explodes

The earth starts to rumble
World powers fall
Have warring for the heavens
Have peaceful man stands tall

Skin Of My Teeth
I had wrists donning slits
Flowing constantly
My broken body in a wreck
Wrapped around a tree

A crosswalk hit and run
The finish line for me
People clutter in the gutter
Take a look and see

No escaping pain
You belong to me
Clinging on to life
By the skin of my teeth

My blood flows through the streets
Deluge from the wounds
Empty jars of sleeping pills
On the dresser of my room

My wet brain neighbor cranes
His neck to see in time
The white lights a train
Bearing down on me

I won't feel the hurt
I'm not trash any longer
That that doesn't kill me
Only makes me stronger

I need a ride to the morgue
That's what 911 is for
So tag my toe and don't forget
Ooh, to close the drawer
