01. Nothing's Wrong?

Music by DevilDriver
Lyrics by Dez Fafara
There's nothing wrong
With what you do and what you say
There's nothing wrong
Pure will will get you through

Why can't you see you're in my way?
Your ways are killing you

Do what thou wilt
Shall be the whole of the law
Do what thou wilt
All they understand is the claw

Why can't you see you're in my way?
Your ways are killing you
Why can't you see you're in my way?
Your ways are killing me
Killing me
Killing you

So go fuck yourself anyway
Keep this hunger

There's nothing wrong
With how I live my life today
There's nothing wrong
So go fuck yourself anyway

Why can't you see you're in my way?

02. I Could Care Less

Music by DevilDriver, Ross Hogarth
Lyrics by Dez Fafara
Every time you speak my name
(My name, my name)
My image it just burns away
(away, away)
Everytime you speak my name
(My name, my name)
My image it just, it just, it just BURNS AWAY, burns away
Burns away, burns away, away, away, away
(Give me that)

I could care less than for your grandiosity
I had to skin the cat for curiosity
I could care less than for your sickening pompous ways
Every time you speak my name, my image burns away

I could care less
I could care less
I could care less
I could care less

Don't you know our lives are on trial now
And if we lose were going straight to hell

(Give me that)

You must excuse me I'm just really not myself
woke up today inside, inside of someone else
I could care less than for your sickening pompous ways
(Give me that)
Every time you speak my name my image burns away

(Give me that)
I could care less
I could care less
I could care less
(Give me that)
I could care less
I could care less

Don't you know our lives are on trial now
And if we lose were going straight to hell

Straight to hell
Straight to hell
Straight to hell
Straight to hell
Straight to hell

Might go straight to hell

I could care less (straight to hell)

03. Die (And Die Now)

Music by DevilDriver
Lyrics by Dez Fafara
Blood is my life
Blood is the road
Everytime I have to write another hate song
This is the last great hate song
Scorned is this life
Scarred is my soul
Everytime I have to write another hate song
This is the last great hate song

Lets get it out
Lets get it straight
I wish you were dead

Don't mistake kindness for weakness
Front and center for another ass kicking
Don't mistake survival for forgiveness
Front and center for another ass whoopin

I am the dog that forever bites back
Forever on attack watching my back

Die and die now
I wish you were dead

Feast your life
The beast the road
Everytime I have to write another hate song
This is the last great hate song

Let's get it out
Let's get it straight
I wish you were dead

Don't mistake mercy for forgiveness
Front and center for another life lesson
Don't forgive, damn sure don't forget
Damn sure, won't forget

I am the dog that forever bites back
Forever on attack watching my back

Die and die now
I wish you were dead
DIE
Curses from my life
Curses from my soul
This is the last great hate song
Damn sure won't forget ....DIE

04. I Dreamed I Died

Music by DevilDriver
Lyrics by Dez Fafara
Destroy all, destroy all or nothing

I dreamed I died, ended up at the gates of Heaven
Greeted by a man Saint someone, said how's the ride son?
It's been alright, at times a little rough, but why am I here?
You did alright, lived a little dark and that's alright

'Cause we made the darkside and the rightside is to have no fear, no fear
My whole life flashed in front of me
I saw everything that I was and what I had done
Even let me look back on some good times for a little fun
Yes, a little fun
And then I heard damn boy you done good
Did the every little thing that you could
And then I heard damn boy you done good
Damn good

When you hear the call, bury them all
Destroy all or nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will destroy all or nothing

When the sky opened up and the clouds parted clear
There wasn't any doubt to why I was here
And I knew I'd done a good job, the best job that I could do
So now it was time to move on, to get on, to get back
To the question of why I was here and what I had learned, no fear
My whole life flashed in front of me
I saw everything that I was and what I had done
Even let me look back on some good times for a little fun
Yes, a little fun
And then I heard damn boy you done good
Did every little thing that you could
And then I heard damn boy you done good
Damn good

When you hear the call, bury them all
Destroy all or nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will destroy all or nothing

My whole life...my whole life...flashed!

My whole life flashed in front of my eyes
My whole life flashed
Flashed in front of my eyes
Goddamn, wake up, bad dream,
Goddamn, wake up, bad dream, bad dream
When you hear the call, bury them all
Destroy all or nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will destroy all or nothing

05. Cry For Me Sky (Eulogy Of The Scorned)

Music by DevilDriver
Lyrics by Dez Fafara
Right!

Let's move, move!

In this life I've known nothing but seeds you've sown
I've walked the highways and I've combed the side roads
It's been a joy of highs, oh the pain of lows
I met the Devil at the heart of the crossroads
I share a soul with a hunting hound
My blood's a red river that flows through every town
No
Have you ever felt like I have?

Cry for me sky
Cry for me, scorned, scorned

Live this life insane, nothing but pouring rain
I'm an outlaw, it's amazing I'm sane
Born and dressed in black, my soul is fighting back
Fueling Hell and raising cain, cain, cain, cain...
Noooooooooooooooo
Have you ever felt like I have?
Cry for me sky

Right
Get the fuck up, get up?

When I'm a ghost and gone, I'll be remembered strong
By all I've met, by friends and family
When I'm lowered down, six feet in the ground
There won't be a sound except for crows wailing

Cry for me sky

06. The Mountain

Music by DevilDriver, Ross Hogarth
Lyrics by Dez Fafara
Storm coming in me, bad weather just makes me breathe
Watch as the sky turns grey, life ebbs and flows away
Wait, before I go, I'll make them all eat crow
Play the hand life deals, everything my way, now kneel
I'm a tree, roots firm in dirt, I've had my share of hurt
Move fast 'cause the time is short, 'cause the time is short

Don't ask me to lose 'cause I'm born now to win
And I'm building this mountain from outside within
All you outsiders, you haters and liars
Your time is just counting so come meet the mountain

Storm, strength coming on strong,
Rain wash away life's wrongs
Willing straight from the start,
Strike fear into their heart
Sometimes you wish you'd never been born
But then here comes the storm

And just as the sky turns black, the voices say attack
Move fast 'cause the time is short,
'Cause the time is short
Move fast 'cause the time is short,
'Cause the time is short

Don't ask me to lose 'cause I'm born now to win
And I'm building this mountain from outside within

All you outsiders, you haters and liars
Your time is just counting so come meet the mountain

Come meet the mountain

Falling, life
Life ebbs and flows away
Don't ask me to lose 'cause I'm born now to win
And I'm building this mountain from outside within
All you haters and liars just come meet the mountain

07. Knee Deep

Music by DevilDriver, Ross Hogarth
Lyrics by Dez Fafara
What do I have to do?for this?

I love this, please push me harder
I just keep getting meaner
I'm growing from the pain
How about you! Shit

Life, it's hard, it makes me stronger
A warrior seeking victory
I'll push it 'til the end, push it 'til the end
Push it 'til the end, shit the end, shit the end

Knee deep in the shit
All together in the pit
All forever in the shit for this

Pirate, poet, fucking killer
It's all what you've made me
What has life made you
Made you, shit

Life, chalk it up to desire
Of which I've had my fill
I just keep pushing forward, keep pushing forward still
Keep pushing forward still, shit, still, shit, still

Knee deep in the shit
All together in the pit
All forever in the shit for this

So if you feel the need, bring it, bring it
And if you just want to spit it out, bring it, bring it
And if you just see your way clear then, bring it, bring it

Knee deep in the shit
All together in the pit
All forever in the shit for this

Knee deep in the shit
For this
Knee deep in the shit
For this

08. What Does It Take (To Be A Man)

Music by DevilDriver
Lyrics by Dez Fafara
On a day-to-day there's no way most men make it through
I got to tell you now
Family tied to me, I'm doing just what I got to do
I got to tell you now
All a man's got is his word and to keep himself free
Do with your life what you will, stay away from my family
Born blue collar been working since I was thirteen
My father was up at five and broke his back to keep us clean
My mother sweated and slaved and suffered for the family
So when you push me don't think that I won't shove
I got to tell you now

What does it take to be a man, what does it take!?!

On a day-to-day there's no way most men make it through
I got to tell you now
Family tied to me, I'm doing just what I got to do
I got to tell you now
When I was a young man I was told to take a stand
And damn it boy, you better stick to a plan
So on a day-to-day you better walk a man's path
Learn how to walk a man's mile, get that game face smile
Don't put up with people who get in your way
And when you push don't think that I won't shove
I got to tell you now

What does it take to be a man, what does it take!?!

Work!!!

What does it take to be a man, what does it take!?!

Swinging the dead swinging the dead
Get it up pick it up

10. Revelation Machine

Music by DevilDriver
Lyrics by Dez Fafara
Don't you worry about their kind
They'll be gone long after time
We'll be here, yes we'll be fine, we'll be fine
All the treasure that they sought
Has led them, bled them, just fear not
All their souls, their souls were bought, ours were not
When they think your scene
All they think, the green
Don't you know just what I mean, just what I mean
All the treasure that they sought
Has led them, bled them, just fear not
All their souls, their souls were bought, ours were not
Revelation machine
Revelation machine --- move
Revelation machine
Revelation machine --- get up and move

We are bringing what is raw
We are bringing tooth and claw
Oh your show, yes that I saw, yes that I saw
But after two times it got old
Yes the story it got cold
After two times it got old, bought and sold
Join me now in saying fuck
Join me now in saying you
Join me know in saying fuck you, fuck you
All the treasure that they sought
Has led them, bled them, just fear not
All their souls, their souls were bought, ours were not

Revelation machine --- move
Revelation machine
Revelation machine --- get up and move
Revelation machine
Revelation, revelation, revelation, revelation
Come, here, with, me, now, it's, the trip, it's so good
Come, here, with, me, now, it's, the trip, it's so good
Come here with me now
Come here with me now

Revelation, revelation, revelation
Revelation, revelation, revelation
Revelation machine
Revelation machine --- move
Revelation machine
Revelation machine --- get up and move
Revelation, revelation, revelation, revelation
Revelation, revelation, revelation, revelation

11. Meet The Wretched

Music by DevilDriver
Lyrics by Dez Fafara
Meet the wretched
It's calling, calling

So, you're bored and you're sitting
Your soul is fitting
Let's go to town and meet the wretched
I hear, they say, night time is calling
The sky is falling
Let's go to town and meet the wretched
Every time we go to town we're taking what they're giving
Let's go downtown and take a drink, we're taking shit from no one

To fight to win to gain ground, gain ground
To kick up dust and gain ground, gain ground
To fight to win to gain ground, gain ground
Come and meet the
Come and meet the wretched tonight

So you're bored, of home you tire
Then let's conspire
Let's go downtown and meet the wretched
See, I told you, it's what we desire
All Hell fire
Let's go downtown and meet the wretched
Every time we go to town we're taking what they're giving
Let's go downtown and take a drink, we're taking shit from no one

To fight to win to gain ground, gain ground
To kick up dust and gain ground, gain ground
To fight to win to gain ground, gain ground
Come and meet the
Come and meet the wretched tonight

Sell our souls for a good time tonight
We're here to drink, we're here to fight
We'll set our wicked nature free
We'll fuck the moon and mourn the stars tonight
Mourn the stars tonight
We'll get so high we'll commune with the beast
We'll go so big there'll be nothing left of us
For the mourning

Go and meet the wretched
Go and meet the wretched
Wretched, wretched

Its in the air, we may die tonight
I'm living my life fast and free
It's in the air, we may die tonight
I'm living my life fast and free
Its in the air, we may die tonight
So tonight it's fast as fuck

Go and meet the wretched
Go and meet the wretched
Wretched, wretched

Fast --- as fuck
The wretched
