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 |
