I walked alone along the river that night Searching for a place to hang my head At the right angle It might clear out on its own I drug my feet along the train tracks Praying to feel the steel vibrate They told me I would regret it What was I feeling I sifted my hands through the thorn bush To show myself that I was real I held your words closely to my ears I guess that's just the way it is I guess that's just the way it is Well I've been down and out I've seen the bottom before But the only hands that came save Were covered in filth Now here I lie Broken legs beneath me My body one with the earth I pray For slumber As my bones begin to rot I see your face Hand in hand You broke my fingers One by one You tore them off Now they say That I'm too far gone They say that I can't be saved A broken watch that can't be wound I may never be repaired.

Ox King 02:46
A broken cross lies on the floor You know you're daughter's gone. But it still ain't home So please don't tell daddy his little girl's done wrong. Because you know it's a full damn moon A scent of blood in the room We hope she's the only one Well god damn a bad man came From way out west And this town ain't been the same I can feel it in my chest I can't say he was born of the devil But the look in his eyes made the pastor spit Lock your doors or he'll let himself right in A broken cross lies on the floor And she don't love me anymore I swear there will be blood No force can stop my hands from shaking And I won't stop 'til I see red Well god damn a bad man came A bad man left You won't see him again The ox king rests

Hark 02:26
Rise Rise men from wilted roots Dirty teeth and rusted suits Altar boys have locked the door To a congregation of thieves and whores Vigilance fills the air Forgive me father, for I have sinned You took this land with and iron fist A mother's tears and fathers missed His army can't stop us Your army can't stop us Can't stop us Burn the king at the stake Poverty and pestilence wet the lips of the people A broken crown under the reign of them A burning church, a flaming steeple Smoke pours to a blackened sky Wake up Cold and alone And procreate It's a lions den It's an epipen Everything dies if you're willing to wait You stole this land We took it back From broken hands
