ANA11256 The Landing

So you landed here
have lost your way or have you found it
did the sun slip away
did it leave you with a tear
for you to drown in
did you form new words
to replace the old circles
I think you've been here before
in dreams when you were a kid

it's been 40 years how thirsty must you be
when rocks are your bread
chew careful and slowly

wade through water and darkness
you'll soon disappear
did you wash it to find out
the dirt kept you here

do we hear fully the ghost in our ears
do we see clearly the ghost in the mirror

ANA11291 All My Shame

ALL MY SHAME
*EXPLICIT*

All my sin and all my shame oh my god don’t call my name
All my sin and all my shame oh my god don’t call my name
Don’t call my name don’t call my name oh my god don’t call my name
Don’t call my name don’t call my name oh my god don’t call my name

Now you’ve been sleepin in my bed all your demons fill my head.
Like you’re mouth don’t close and this shit don’t end.
Gotta get you out and let sense back in.

All my sin and all my shame oh my god don’t call my name
All my sin and all my shame oh my god don’t call my name
Don’t call my name I don’t need it
Something changed I can feel it

Oh no oh no I fear we’re losing control
Oh lord oh lord please take me with you when you go

The more we give the more you take take and all your lies don’t sound the same.
Can’t you even keep those straight it’s so hard to swallow endless hate.
All my sin and all my shame oh my god don’t call my name
All my sin and all my shame oh my god don’t call my name

Oh no oh no I fear we’re losing our soles
Oh lord oh lord please take me with you when you go

All my sin and all my shame oh my god don’t call my name
All my sin and all my shame oh my god don’t call my name
Don’t call my name don’t call my name oh my god don’t call my name
Don’t call my name don’t call my name oh my god don’t call my name

ANA11290 Howl For The Moon

HOWL FOR THE MOON

Daddy’s been dead a long long time
I forget what he said cause he never said that much
But he’d howl for the moon on a moonless night
And he’d drink from the earth till the rivers all ran dry
And he’d howl for the moon

Mama done left the country side cause she don’t like day
And she can’t stand the night
When she’s freezing alone till the morning sun comes up
Cause at night he would roam with his gray eyes almost shut
And he’d howl for the moon

What do they mean when they call out your name
Cover your ears child cover your ears child
Why did they come here and why won’t they leave
Cover your ears child cover your ears and go oooooo

Why does it burn this blood in my veins
Cover your eyes child cover your eyes child
Why do they scream when they look at your face
Cover your eyes child cover your eyes and go oh oh oh

The pitchforks have gone but I’m still around
It’s my turn to roam through the forests and fog.
And down in the valley on the edge of the lake

ANA11292 Pulp

PULP

Pulp in the palm of your hand
Could you live with killing another man
I hope for purity still
You're all I look for when I look for me.

It's dark
Is that your hand I feel
It's cold
Your skin like scales makes me reel

How did we get so far gone
How did we get so numb so numb

You ain't gonna know if i
Gonna know if I
Gonna know if I'm
Livin or dyin
Livin or dyin
Livin or dyin

Gracefully pull me out of this hiding place
So on my dying day I've only got myself to blame myself to blame myself
But how did we get so far gone
How did we get so numb

You ain't gonna know if i
Gonna know if I
Gonna know if I'm
Livin or dyin
Livin or dyin
Livin or dyin

ANA11293 Do Your Worst

DO YOUR WORST

Do your worst
Give it hell
Keep your prayers to yourself
The only one who cares
Guess your mother didn’t teach you well
Or something didn’t stick
When you poison the ones you love you’re gonna make them sick
And they won’t soon forget

Do your worst
Give it hell
Suit yourself and no one else
I’m sure we’ll always be there
Guess your father never shot you straight
Or couldn’t make you care
If you always take take take
You’ll end up holding air
And you’ll think it so unfair
