lyrics

I had hope that peace
would ever find this place
and potentially mold the shape of my heart
back into something recognizable

By any party
unfamiliar
with the events of October '71

And the dagger still has the blood!
Dried and blotted, remnants of the plotted
Hardly forgotten that
Anyone can see these scars

From inside the getaway car!
And no names
present at the time
can provide added insight
to the crime in further detail
'cause they're all fucking dead!
[muahaha]
shot down in cold blood

Hope you're having fun tonight
With your friends and loose ends
Tied down like the chains of time
Teasing you to carry on

Do you remember what that feels like
Or have you gone so mad that you're just glad
Cheating to the surface for some O2?

Can we learn
How to begin again?

And the dagger still has the blood!
Dried and blotted, remnants of the plotted
Hardly forgotten that
Anyone can see these scars

From inside the getaway car!
And no names
present at the time
can provide added insight
to the crime in further detail
'cause they're all fucking dead!
[muahaha]
shot down in cold blood

[E.U]

I had hopes that the truth
Wouldn't blind you
And the shine from inside the light's use supplies a nice view
Prime that we shine thru
Surprise the lord's sunday rising beside you
Child you're gonna make me break it down no matter what you cursing
Unless it's specific I'm criminal so come get it
I keep it hot and handsome for you if you can catch it
But I cannot be in this joint for longer than I can stand it
I am dramatic, erratic, I shoot under panic
Never faced my time for all the crimes out of passion
I'm still recovering from the more merrier habits
And I cannot reprimand a correctional felicity
My most liminal profile: getaway car
Lock it up - imagine that we made it this far
Now I'm going real fast it's my chance c'mon
And my man's get the cash, not so damning you know?
All the folks trying to lock me down - I'm not trying to go
I got a grand and a plan to turn it into some more
As it stands I've been known to give my hope before I go
I want to clean them out and let them know how we're going
And I'll be good 'til 1974
As I should be ever never before
In HD, Stereo
We on it
Various
[On]
Don't bury me
Don't bury me
Don't..don't bury me wrong
You can find the epitaph of my brand new plans
All the judgement that I hid in 1971

[Muahahaha]
Plan ! Plan! Turned it into some more
I'm with my mans and we're all on the road
It took the whole show just to steal the spot
They know that we never did reveal the plot
And none of my associates will cooperate with the U.S. Government!
Honor among thieves [hahaha]
Would you believe there's still honor among these
Alright here's the deal...pull up chief for a couple tickets to some meals, yes

All in accordance
With these plots will be dealt
With the most severity
You are under arrest
You have the right to remain silent
And we encourage you to not make us violent
All the lights ultraviolet

Peace!
Equipped with the crop for the night in a case
Your life - in piece

Hands on the fucking car!

And the dagger still has the blood
Dried and blotted
Remnants of the plotted
Hardly forgotten that anyone can see these sca-sca-sca-sca-sca-scars
I stamp

I hope that peace would find you
As the shine from inside the nice view provides a nice yes.. yes

I hope you're having fun
[ahahaha]
