Coins on the Open Eyes |
If I walk blind/ they’ll lay me down in chalk lines |
The spot’s mine if I travel with a soft spine |
The city’s hungry/ everyone is fair game |
Spare change ain’t blood money to a pair of fangs |
The air hangs like sneakers on the phone wire |
Too thick to breathe in/ too thick to go higher |
They sound like angels/ voices out the black church |
Tracked dirt inside didn’t notice til the last verse |
Amazing grace lay your hands on my face |
So I can fin’ly feel like I’ve abandoned my ways |
Trying to own land 'fore I land in my grave |
How come I’m three steps ahead of you just standing in place? |
I felt the earth move/ under my blurred view |
The curfew, the proud, their hurt is on the curb, too |
Swerve through with nothing but a word and |
Disturbed truth/ to neglect and to serve you |
Bite the bullet/ this is gonna sting a bit |
Come to think of it/ this the iceberg to sink your ship |
No signs of life by daylight |
Ask the hangman if he ever gets stage fright |
Eyes rollin' back like a slot machine |
Must’ve been the two-faced woman I got caught between |
The poison could’ve used a little seasonin' |
Lies blinded both eyes but fuck it you can leave 'em in |
Made a mess out of something so beautiful |
I’m trying to get front row tickets to my funeral |
Just to see the look on my face when my maker came |
Now throw my ashes like paper planes/ make it rain |
Just another ghost on the night beat |
Gayngs is half-dead walking 'round under white sheets |
I promise I won’t promise you nothin' |
And you can have it all/ now isn’t that somethin? |
Coins on the open eyes / flies in the open mouth |
Alone- how I came in / that’s how I’m going out |
