Goatsnake - Flower Of Disease lyrics



Tracks



01. Flower Of Disease

Voices in my head say hello
Silence greets my lips echo
I touch these walls of this place I know
Death is standing right outside the door

I smile inside to hide the cries
That pain just loves to multiply

These scars are mine the sores I know
Cuts me deep and slowly takes my soul
I face these walls of this place alone
I know your love but still it can't follow

I smile inside to hide the cries
That pain just loves to multiply
I search for ways through my tears
To find a way to destroy my fears

Watering this flower of disease.

02. Prayer For A Dying

Oh the light it comes a creep
And the night it leaves
It's the end of the dawn

Come the morning bury me
Keep my candles
A burn into the dawn

The blues and city shits
Open the door let's it in
Destroys my faculties
Blinds me to my knee

As the darkness covers me
I begin to dream
Of visions that I long

Yeah you got to rock the roll
Set your fancies
A chance yet to be free again

In my system running strong
Shinning sins and setting suns
On my back like a hounding bitch dog

Lay in the shadows and pray for a dying

I reach for the arms
But I can't catch my faith
I land on the floor and crawl
On my skin

Lay in the shadows and pray for a dying.

03. Easy Greasy

Laughing and fallin'
Don't apologize
Feel it in the morning
With sandpaper eyes
Drinkin' my whisky
She drinks her wine
And if my baby is willin'
I roar to oblivion
With her by my side

Easy

Fellout and tore up
With my friends and their freaks
We laugh and lie so high it's sweet
The girls want to fuck
But we're to gone
Running after life and the light till dawn
Drinking our whisky
Drinking our wine
And if my baby still willin
I'll roar to oblivion with her by my side

Easy easy whisky wine
Greasy

Toast eye to eye
We're on our way
The secret is ours
We're on our way
With my love
All I need
A reason for living

Easy.

04. El Coyote

Hear howls from the moon
Lonely souls that chill the bones
El coyote

Her moans from bellow
Choked in dust
Screaming skulls
Call their brothers

For so long these blues
Can be heard at night
For so long these blues
Are a pack of eyes

Some say like the crow
That this earth and everything
He created

El coyote cut a hole in a giants heart
And lava flowed

For so long these blues
Can be heard at night
For so long these blues
Are a pack of eyes
Pack of eyes.

05. The Dealer

For all the stars
And a show of hands
It's in the cards
Since time began

Through all the dawns
The midnights
What's in the shadows
And the sunlight

I was there when Adam turned the leaf
Jesus wept..oh lord please don't forsake me
And the cards they throw on down
And the cards they throw on down
And the cards they throw on down
Devil don't misquote me

Through all the suns
And sunken moons
I've painted hills with the lost trails of many

I'm the bars with the crooked smiles
It's my eyes that guide you stumbling home
The crooked mile

Angel eyes with fallen wings
I was there when Gabriel cried
Oh lord don't forsake me

And the cards they throw on down
And the cards they throw on down
Devil... don't misquote me

It's your deal.

06. A Truckload Of Mamma's Muffins

Tripping back and forth to the moon
As the miles drip off the spoon
Jacked up on cold caffeine
Dragging my nutsthrough valvoline
Like the Flintstones they use their feet
I made the machine
Hey man smells like sumping died under the seat
Out of mind maybe

Peel it back-peel it back
You got nothin' but skin
Peel it back-black to red-peel it back
To the moon

You know I gotta move
I rust like tin if I stand still
I got my barney olfield grin on
And I take my bitch for a ride
Hey man do ya wanna come along
Peel it back
She ain't got nothing but skin
But her metal sure do shine

Peel it back-black to red-peel it back
You got nothing but skin-peel it back

If I win I lose
Nothing but skin
Nothing
Shit goddamn.

07. Live To Die

Got my wheels in motion
Rev'd up high
Got my city engines
Out for a ride while I'm alive

I might die tomorrow
I'm gonna live today

Got my loco motion
Rattlin' bones
Sweating gin and smoking
Pockets full of rolling stoned

I might die tomorrow
I'm gonna live today

Yesterdays over
And we all
Die like we live today

Got my molly peculiar
She's a little miss strange
She's my witch and with my broomstick
Gonna ride all night while alive

I might die tomorrow
I'm gonna live today

Yesterdays over
And we all
Die like we live today

And we all
And we all
Die like we live today.

08. The River

River
Passing me
Did you feel my heart leaving

River
Hearing me
Please take my heart gently
To the sea

I sink to float along
I sink to float along
I sink to float along
I sink to float along

River
Flowing
Have you ever been lonely

River
How I envy
Forgetting so easily
To the sea

I sink to float along
I sink to float along
I sink to float along
I sink to float along.
