Vendetta Red White Knuckled Substance Lyrics
1.Ribcage Menagerie

Miscellaneous
Ribcage Menagerie
Blood on the windshield mystic mosaic
Surreal you're your ribcage menagerie
Listen to lips that lull you to sleep beside
A living nightmare
In front of a fake friend fell on your knees
His death in a car crash cured your disease
Still in the water food for the fishes
Would anyone miss him?
With his words like mercury
Filling the holes from razor gazes
A verbal gauze for broken hearts
Seal the coffin careless to kiss
Stab at the angels that gave you to me
Morbid my love lives forever inside my chest
She completes me
I stare at the sky through a blanket of filth
Means to an end their exhaust in my lungs
Stinging my eyes like a tear for an unborn child
But she stares with me
Choose your blade
And carve your name into my heart
Soothe the wounds and heal my scars


2.Shatterday

Days are numbered 6-6-6
And I'll begin the countdown
By calling off the circus
somewhere in these
Cryptic scriptures
I'll find myself drifting in a sky
Full of...

Scars they cut into you
Blisters rose colored hue
Mayday we're going down
These masculine memories are morose
Your kerosene company is comatose

Our days are numbered 3-2-1
And when you bit the bullet
I held the smoking gun
Somewhere in these
Violent volumes
I'll find myself drifting in a sky
Full of...

Scars they cut into you
Blisters rose colored hue
Mayday we're going down
These masculine memories are morose
Your kerosene company is comatose

And I would sick up half of my cold eye
To set you on your head
If I were you then I would memorize
This loose lipped lullaby
Instead of waiting
Carving out your own

Scars they cut into you
Blisters rose colored hue
Mayday we're going down
Follow we went around
Scars they cut into you
Blisters rose colored hue
Mayday we're going down
These masculine memories are morose
Your kerosene company is comatose


3.Por Vida

So I spilled out my guts to look past my regrets
And I sang to the heavens as I bled from my neck
I said thanks for your patience god
And all your wisdom and strength
I said thanks for the suffering as I sang for the dead
They lived for the living god you ignored every word
We'll all grow old and die as our pleas go unheard
So I walked through the valley and I tried to forget
How I loved every moment of the life that I left
We were all cheated my brothers
We were all lied to my friends
No one can save us from god not even death
So cast off what is mortal and discard all your dreams
They all turn to shit in the end and you wake up in hell
Why fear the unknown the presents as painful
As being ignored


4.Forgetiquette

Half a pack of cigarettes mostly broke or bent
I think of cancer as I put one to my
Cracked lips that long to slake this poison lust
Voices spin and resonate inside
This old phone booth shelters me from these lonely streets
If only god would grant me strength to call you
Just three words could help me slake this poison lust
Esoteric memory you're an eyesore now
Grab your handle twist your blade deep in my wound


5.Stay Home

A song to soothe you son of mine
Your broken bones heal in due time
Another day in silence suffering such a bitter pill
We're the sons and daughters daddy hates too much to kill
Revenge is mine sayeth the lord
And you only hit me when you're bored
Story books and happy endings bite your lip in fear
Pray the next blow kills you so you won't have to be here
You said son, I didn't mean it
There's something wicked on the inside living in me
She said son, he didn't mean it
There's something evil on the inside
Stay home


6.Seconds Away

Lead in your chest halo in water watch me drill holes in my head
Misunderstood? Meet me in moonlight with your lovers heart in a
box
We'll watch how the world pushes forward
Running like insects from god
You only want to be near him
So you join in his crimson jihad
Cause they cast out the dark with 2 stones and a spark
Til your seconds away from redemption
wage your war with the dead and your breakfast in bed
Till your seconds away from redemption
April came on the pain was like knives digging right into my
feet
Echoes of agony breaking my body most of this is merely a lie


7.Accident Sex

I was fast asleep dreaming I was rain
I fell from the clouds to touch your frame
But you just hid your face beneath you hands now

Delirium is soothing me
Just close your eyes go to sleep

I was holding on hanging by a thread
Clinging to 3 words you said
But words are meaningless in your absence

Violation's a victory
Just close your eyes go to sleep....go to sleep.....

Delirium's soothing me
I'll keep your words close to me
Violation's a victory
Just close your eyes go to sleep


8.Caught You Like A Cold

Hey I am sure to fall this time around
And I could look you in the eye but you never show your face
Something sticky in your ears turned to logic
And what you reiterate is meaningless to me
Save yourself because your dying slowly
Say goodnight before you ever say goodbye
Tore the buttons off your coat to keep the wind out
Banged your head against the sky to touch the ground beneath
Held a candle to the sun to drown the twilight
But when you bruise you never bleed no you never cryout
Strong carry on carry me home
Serve your flesh circuts unkown
Stitches sewn to leave me alone
Cran your neck till I crawl
Does it make you sick?
The smell of daddy's sweat
The taste of daddy's spit
Crawl blood in blood out


9.Suicide Party

I'm turning a deaf ear to your bloody ministries
Save it for the afterlife honey
Cause everybody knows
The more we nurture our perversions, the more human we become
Sing children sing it to the sun
Struck down, I hate what you've become
Your comet catcher conned you baby
Straight down you'll plummet to the earth
They finally caught the killer they found his skin beneath her
nails
Squeeze him hard enough and he'll confess
We swore a solemn oath to never disobey,
Then he took our wives and kids away

Faith exposes us
When they're cursing your name you'll be falling apart
Faith exposes us
When they're cursing your name you'll be falling apart

Sing children sing it to the sun
Struck down I hate what you've become
Your comet catcher conned you baby
Straight down you'll plummet to the earth


10.Ambulance Chaser

In fiscal flight from the ravenous cavernous orifice asphyxiated
form
Washed in wolves blood sterile and pantomimed parting in
Parts the trial of the worm
Sew the lid closed cough and spit into your palm with charitable
charms and
Slap the bad mans wrist insist disarm
Do the math the path is a narrow one it led me down to a cold
and shallow grave
On my tombstone I read the epitaph 'Here lies a man who lived
and died a slave'
Till the vexing that his hex annexing animates his glorious
distresses
Serve the right foot raw so flawed undressed
Semiconscious concentration Christmas cards and suffocation
Ambulances beckon bodies tires squealing sirens wailing


11.The Long Goodbye

Winters like a plague I fill the emptiness inside with broken
glass
Johnny's got his gun
And mamma's still cleaning up the blood he's laying in
It's the long goodbye
All thoughts become a mirror like anguish mimicking me
When it's cold here mother I can see my breath on the window
And I wonder what you thought of me
Don't you turn around and leave me alone
Everyone's standinghere but I'm on my own
Don't you turn around and leave me alone
With my curse casted in chrome
It's the long goodbye
Trust like a bandage binds your head
To the guillotine and I know there's and empty space in your bed
Where we used to sleep afraid of waking up dead
Rest your weary head tomorrow we'll bury fallen gods in holy
ground
15 hours left til the redeemer claims his tax in human souls


12.All Cried Out

Turn your back on your past make your mark with a crime that
lasts
'Guns don't kill...' but bullets do and I've been saving one for
you
Hold me down I can feel a seizure coming think I took too much
marazine
Saw blade bits tearing tendons from your neck like so much
knives through bread
til you head sags and falls to the ground cashmere crush covered
in smoke
I'm All Cried Out
Soldiers march a red sunset blood soaked babies on bayonets
The flag still waves for all to see like moonlight on my machete
