The Spiral

Hell Within

A writhing sleep
 A waiting gun
 A black premonition
 A crow to follow home
 So here we are again
 The fork carved in the road
 White knuckles grip the wheel
 A full liquor tank set to blow
 I'm not afraid
 I don't give a fuck if I live or die
 I just want to see twisted metal
 The broken glass shards right through my eyes
 For salvation a bullet ride
 Not a stained glass prison of lies
 Are you afraid?
 You can't make it home
 The crack façade of love has left you stained black
 Rotting and cold
 So drink up
 Let the acid burn
 Deaf. Numb. Blind
 Serenity in a gutter sleep
 They'll make you feel at home in the absence of the truth
 The only hole you'll get is in the comfort of the noose
 She's soaking wet
 This love's a crime
 But goddamn it, it feels so good to watch the fear take over her eyes
 So drink up
 Let the acid burn
 Deaf. Numb. Blind
 Serenity in a gutter sleep
 A velvet lining
 Some words of prayer
 Such a merciful god
 (To the ship-like minions)
 Thumbs his nose in the air 1234!
 This ship of fools is going under
 A broken mast impales the martyr
 A blood red sky bled from our father
 The spiral turns wine to water
 Stained life from this debt
 Take my last breath
