True what they say
No one is saved
No map, for the soul
This tattered quilt, threadbare and torn
A chill, as the sun sets, farewell
All of our lives, gossamer threads
Caught on the wind, gambled along
Searching to find, hoping to know a piece of home
Where the light always waits on
And I wonder where they fly
So high above if only I could shed these shackles
Maybe I could too
I told the truth, as I saw it then
Shattered and lost, jagged and bruised
And all those words, gin soaked and rude
Left to the dark as the day creeps through
And I wonder where they fly
So high above if only I could shed these shackles
Maybe I could too
All of our lives, gossamer threads
Caught on the wind, gambled along
Searching to find, hoping to know a piece of home
Where the light always waits on
And I wonder where they fly
So high above if only I could shed these shackles
Maybe I could too

Heart of Darkness

Crack in the teacup opens
Lane to the land of the dead,
Said that you’d be by the bar
Had to drink for two instead
Jackal to my left
Hyde got me in sight
Oh fever, fever it’s a jungle here
But you don’t have to be alone
So I’ll go, go
And fuck this up right now
I’ll go, go
And take all we had, and blow it all right now
Crowds on the pavement stand
Careless blades of grass
Uprooted, surly, misaligned
It sting as they rush past
Eyes that punctuate
A darkness that surrounds
Call fever, fever it’s a jungle here
But you don’t gotta be alone
So I’ll go, go
And fuck this up right now
I’ll go, go
And take all we had
And when the morning comes
I haven’t closed my eyes
And it’s not the tell-tale hear that beats
It’s the lack of one inside
So I’ll go, go
And fuck this up right now
I’ll go, go
And take all we had, ohh all we had
And blow it all right now
