Satisfy Me 05:29
Something bleeding in the water It's what made you Saul the ruthless It's what makes me Pete the thin I don't know where to begin, I'll pick a fight with anything Black dog will follow master To dawn on him when near disaster Beckons one to throw the stone Beckons one to feel alone, beckons earth a tired groan Gratify me, satisfy me, terrify me, satisfy me, don't deny me, satisfy me yeah yeah Something bothers me from cleaning The dirt from in these fingernails The bloodstains from these hands The hatred from this man, I throw a fist you lend a hand Gratify me, satisfy me, terrify me, satisfy me, don't deny me, satisfy me yeah yeah As it comes, take it in You don't have to be afraid You don't have to walk away For your manic there is tame For your anger there is rain When it drips it pours When it breathes it roars Gratify me, satisfy me, terrify me, satisfy me, don't deny me, satisfy me yeah yeah

Oh man I'm exhausted Oh man I am Wearing myself out in the service Of a lesser command And I'm in the process of becoming a man However that may be defined I hold my temper in a mason can And I lose hold of it sometimes I watch it drop onto the earth in a hot sweat The order fleeing from my life But I am thankful for the passion of the moment That kind of thing is hard to find I feel the stones cry out Spit teeth from my weary mouth Oh man I'm complacent Oh man I am Wearing myself out on every corner And I'm folding every hand I'm in the process of becoming a man However that may be defined I hold my temper in a mason can And I lose hold of it sometimes I feel the stones cry out Spit teeth from my weary mouth

I'm not a gifted teacher no I've never been that patient I won't stick around to see her grow I've never been that patient My grandad was a pilot I've never been that patient He crossed water and he crossed sand I've never been that patient Oh, drag me under Worry like rolling thunder When I can't sleep my emotions off I just resort to yelling When I'm exhausted and my will gets soft I just resort to yelling Love lying dormant is a land so bleak Worry like rolling thunder I'm not going to beg you because I'm not that weak Worry like rolling thunder Oh, drag me under Worry like rolling thunder

I know I'm beat The ground under me has become soft Amaranthine mist has you so lost You don't even know what you want You don't even know what you need I want to run quick I want to run to New Brunswick But in the end I am alone I am alone, I am alone When you find me Stay if only for a short time Company's nice at least I find Even if I still feel alone All your friends can't make you not feel alone I want to run quick I want to run to New Brunswick But in the end I am alone I am alone, I am alone Your in a typhoon You lie to yourself but it's no use Say that your home but it's not true Lay in the bed that you've made And remember the debts that you pay I want to run quick I want to run to New Brunswick But in the end I am alone I am alone, I am alone

Bad Habit 04:56
Some folks write cheques But i don't have that to offer you Some folks are complex But I'm not, I'm as I seem to be Something fresh for when I breathe stale air And a thorough freeze that I can live to conquer Let me live again Let me live again Time breeds in mysterious ways Habit forms an ethereal gaze Everyone wants a spot at the table So we whisper in dark corners No harm is done No harm in conversation No harm is done But I came to hear the crack of bones Something fresh for when I breathe stale air And a thorough freeze that I can live to conquer Let me live again Let me live again Time breeds in mysterious ways Habit forms an ethereal gaze Everyone wants a spot at the table So we whisper in dark corners Everything tastes like milk and honey Or prejudice and plum brandy I suppose it's not a ceremony Without whispers in dark corners
