Goatman 08:46
The sky turned red Star killer Dark in the night Red and bloody Has no body It pulls me Into the trees Is it real Falling into the sky, it cries It sounds like a thousand flies, and now it has my eyes I stand still With all my will Black sand A cold flat land Where are my hands Soul melting like honey Cheap thrill, big money A reflection of you, but its not true You find your gun on the wet ground You look and fire at the hound Once more you hear that sound Don't turn around
2.
Black Fruit 03:42
You wake up, cold and confused Your body broken, worn and abused This new world Swallows you whole With colours and light That would darken the night The space is a wall Standing so tall Between it all And now you fall Your hands Turn to dusts You are now but Flowers and red roots A pile of grey suits Rotting in the sunlight Burning in the night Trees with black fruit Grow from your roots Once wore piece suits Now taste tall boots The earth wasn't yours to kill Now you'll rot for your cheap thrills

Ausrotten 02:42
He can skin a rabbit with his bare hands can't he He'd do the same to you for money With his big strong hands Vigilance, courage, pride, don't hide Doesn’t matter what you do Doesn't matter what you've done He's got his belt and his whistle So you're gonna bleed for his fun it's always the same When it begins again Pink boy with his pepper toy And his rubber gun Little man with his sweaty hands Cheap pork, wouldn't give it to a stray dog You don't need a badge, you don't need a whistle You just need to talk to your own service pistol Pig in the red suit, no lawsuit You take what you need then you take a little more Pension coming up might as well start a race war Power is power, a cop is a pig

And he walks up the stairs Towards the door at the end of the hall And He keeps walking, closer and closer to that big red door His eyes are closed, and he's walking backwards Discoloration Desecration Absolution Retribution And he's got a gun in his hand With his head full of sand Not just any gun in his hand A gun that unmakes a man Nail gun Chew your mind like gum The call of the dirt Climbs up your skirt The embrace of death Is what you have left The bruise never heals The body doesn't feel The door was never open

I don't like you And you don't like me And I don't like that look on your face Your disposition and passion for race But the difference between you and me Is that I am truly free You'll die It's you or I Eye for an eye Before I'm dead I'll cut off your head I'll spit in those blue eyes You'll fade bathing in flies
10.
Hey Get that gun out of my face Indifferent of my race Does it matter who you mace Some day you'll get a taste Put in your place regardless of your race Boots in your face Black leather breakfast Beat to death with your own fist
11.
Its darker this time of year than it used to be Why won't the sun rise Why can't you see the flies Come save me You won't find me Somewhere with red fleas In a forest of black leaves Where there's nothing beneath me Not a sound around you Not even your own breath The air is thick and cold Colder than death Stars fell down Like glass from the air The night goes black As they fall into our hair
