Weak Potion

Gone where's your spirit gone?
Has the last drop of you been taken
Out where the devil roams
Eyes fixed to you like death to a bone
I know there's going to be fire
I see the stakes for the survivors
I smell the smoke of the liars
Spread hell where they walk
Hell where they go
Weak potion
My nation's drunk on an ocean
Of false quotation
Suspend your expectations
We know
There's no salvation here
For these people
They spread you thinly my dear
And they make you their favourite pet thing
I know there's going to be fire
I see the stakes for the survivors
I smell the smoke of the liars
Spread hell where they walk
Hell where they go
Go go, go go, go go
Dog that you beat
Tears that you weep
Over the carcass that you could not teach
Preaching your message so indefinitely
Still waiting to meet this Jesus you speak of
Never was there a question
That we could be free
But your eyes don't see
The freedom I seek
Are they so disposable
Opinions we keep?
I was the bee
In your bee stung feet
In your bee stung feet
In your big defeat
In your bee stung feet
In your big defeat
Weak potion
My nation's drunk on an ocean
Of false quotation
Suspend your expectations
We know
There's no salvation here

My darling
They dragged you down
They made hunters of us all
They found you out
They wanted to punish
You for being honest
Hate in their eyes
They're giving rise
To cannibal desires
Ohhh
I am enchanted
You leave me empty handed
I am thankful for your love
And I'm tarnished
I'm gonna ride
I'm gonna ride
These cannibal desires
I'm gonna ride
This harness
You can't be another
You can't be another
You can't be another
Rise from your apathy
Will you rise?
Rise from your apathy
When will you rise?
Rise, rise.
My darling
They dragged you down
My darling
Rise from your apathy

Friends

Change begins inside
Don't be led by your pride
She eats your alive
(Chorus)
Nobody ever makes friends like that
Good conscience may go bad
Nobody ever makes friends like that
What you win you're gonna lose fast
Nobody ever makes friends like that
Good conscience may go bad
Nobody ever makes friends like that
Bad conscience leads you to nothing
True
Listen when I'm talking to you
It leads you to nothing pure
It's a trick of the light
(Chorus)
Nobody ever makes friends like that
Good conscience may go bad
Nobody ever makes friends like that
What you win you're gonna lose fast
Nobody ever makes friends like that
Good conscience may go bad
Nobody ever makes friends like that
Bad conscience leads you to nothing
Leads you to nothing
Leads you to nothing
Oooh
Gold makes chains
You don't need a thing
Everything is God
You don't need a thing
Everything is God
You don't need a thing
Everything is
Do you understand
My whisperings?
You don't need a thing
Everything is God
And life goes in the blink of an eye
(Chorus)
Nobody ever makes friends like that
Good conscience may go bad
Nobody ever makes friends like that
What you win you're gonna lose fast
Nobody ever makes friends like that
Good conscience may go bad
Nobody ever makes friends like that
Bad conscience leads you to nothing
Leads you to nothing
Leads you to nothing
Oooh
It's a trick of the light

Headstone

Cordon your headstone from me
Cordon your headstone from me
I'm blind to Death's advances
Shaking the faith of St. Francis
Cordon your headstone from me
And mask the things that I've seen
I'm wise to Death's advances
Faith is my weapon of fancy
Clothed in silver
So attentive
He moves over
Like some holy stranger
Spitting out such confidence
You're a danger
Taken to your rhythms
And backwards glances
Such a man
Weaving language
To orchestrate grave plans
So women hide yourselves!
Women hide yourselves!
It's a long, long way to fall
It's a long, long way to fall
You should be running
Your white face
Fists were beating
Fists were beating
Your wise words
Taken from me
Taken from me
And your love
Was so fleeting
Taken from me
And my fists were beating
Animal curse
And I'm now some other person
Who doesn't know the reason
Or have answers
But we should be running
We should be running
It's a long, long way to fall
It's a long, long way to fall
It's a long, long way to fall
It's a long, long way to fall
