lyrics

That face
That mouth
That miracle
That sex
That lie
That dollar bill

Teetering on the brink
Plunging headlong into the drink
Icy cold but sinking fast
Images of murdered past

That face
That mouth
That miracle
That sex
That lie
That dollar bill

Dominoes clicking through your mind
Clawing upward the toothy climb
Burning cities with just one wave
Universes become enslaved
Leaders pointing fingers high
Drinking blood and apple pie
Trojan horses and open sky
Screaming warbirds and rolling lies

That face
That mouth

I think the whole damn thing is chronically inflamed
It's bleeding and it's red and it can't be saved

Dig a hole and crawl inside
Whistling bullets and pouring eyes
Running madly mothers cries
Another broken soldier dies
Politicians never cheat
Another stacked deck hand to beat
The night has eyes and properties
Beyond the realms of sanity
And soaking wounds that never heal
All open up to claim their meal
As demon forces in their oval lair
Get fat and rich and loose their hair
And loose their hair

That face
That mouth
That dollar bill
That sex
That lie
Dollar bill

Dollar bill

I can see all of this woven
Woven into the fabric of everything
Everything they teach you is a lie
Everything that's written down is a lie
The only truth is right now

Its all a lie

The whole thing is inflamed
And everyone is to blame

Now is the time

Now is the time

Now is the time

Now is the time
