Red Heaven



Furious

You're furious
You're furious

I never taught you to sing
You carry rocks in your hand
And pitch them
Without Warning
Happy drunk

You're furious
You're furious

I beg you for sin
I beg your skin
You buy a whore
Don't give her water

You're furious
You're furious


Firepile

This is him
When I, when I begin

Call him tied call him taken
Call him anything but shaken
Call him wasted call him shaved
Call him anything but shaved
Call that firepile a home

Don't give away the end
I come back
I rush to wait
Where the pavement starts to crack
I put my foot down

The sidewalk's so hot
The sidewalk's so hot

Think of all the junk
I could lay my hands on, purify my heart
That firepile's your home

Your baby's running faster
Count the times I left my clothes out
Count the tires one more time
Count the times I let the air out
That firepile's your home
And you're mine


Dio

Don't look back
And he's your soldier
Don't look back
And he's your soldier

That sheet metal sound next door is keeping me awake
Janie's eyes are open
And my feet are killing me
If this isn't the truth

Don't look down
And he's your shoulder
Don't look down
And he's your shoulder

That cheap little loud mouth whore is keeping me awake
The baby's eyes are open
And this heat is killing me
If this isn't the truth

Clap my hands
Slap my legs
I can't find it
But that sweet little bastard boy is breaking me a leg
Maybe mine is broken
I don't mind it
I don't mind it ...
I don't mind it
Dio, dio, dio


Dirty Water

I'm the lady who locks the door
I'm the lady who turns out the light
Hey you

Look at the dirty water
Look at him
Look at the dirty water
And swim

I'm not looking for anything you don't know
I'm not digging for anything but this hole
Hey you

Look at the dirty water
Look at him
Look at the dirty water
And swim

Sit at your hole
You can't afford to go
Catch what you can
You can't afford to know
This man
Hey you... aren't you the lady?

Some man
You look fine
Don't touch me
There's history on your hands
Hey you... aren't I the lady?

Look at the dirty water
Look at the dirty water


Stroll

I used to listen
I used to hear inside the wall
Now I don't hear at all

Pearl

Hot hands
Move things
I write on this wall
I have no mind at all
Hot things
Move him
I write on this wall
I have no heart at all

I think she's a pretty little fool
She holds me down, she flows
She has a back like Marie

I think he's a crazy bastard
Drives me home, he goes
You have a back like Marie

You have pearls on your eyes

And you use your burning to wrap yourself in
And you use your fever to hide yourself away
And you use your sweating to keep me down
And you use your heat to have me

And you use your fire to be stronger than me
And you use your flame against me

I won't come back like Marie
The pearls on my eyes
These pearls on my eyes
They make me blind

I write on your wall
I have no eyes at all
I write on your wall
I have no eyes at all


Summer St

I saw him first
On Summer Street
He held my breath
A famous face
And instant death
He saw me next

One lonesome body
One lonesome song
One lonesome body
One lonesome song

Drink to my friend
Drink to the sun
To your health
'Til daylight comes
And burning wealth
I hold my breath

No lonesome body
No lonesome song
No lonesome body
No lonesome song
No lonesome song


Backroad

One two three four
How many, many people outside your door?
Two three four five
How many people outside?

Four three two one
I don't think you can hold your own
Five six seven eight
I don't think you can save your face
You don't say no

He dunk the backboard
And he sleep on the couch
He jump the backseat
And he sleep on the couch
He drive the backroad
He drive the backroad
And he sleep

You're a pusher
Spy in a bath
We make us move
Like some kind of bath
Come when you need some
Come when you need some
You're a pusher

He dunk the backboard
And he sleep on the couch
He jump the backseat
And he sleep on the couch
He drive the backroad
He drive the backroad
And he sleep

He dunk the backboard
And he sleep on the couch
He jump the backseat
And he sleep on the couch
He drive the backroad
He drive the backroad
And he sleep


The Visit

I'm proud to see you here
I can't believe, believe the pressure in my head It's a game of chance, I whisper in your ear
Fall apart along the way
Don't you ever see it through
Jesus said in heaven
There's not that much to do

I'm proud to see you here
I'm proud to be here with you all
I have a message from your son
When the ground starts shaking
Watch the gifts inside your home
I have a feeling many aren't for you
Leave your dollars where they fall
They have a message of their own
When the ground starts breaking, run
Keep on running
Or so says your son

She's a pillar of your home
Keep on shaking
Or so says your son

She's a vice
Keep on running
'Til you can't go on


Dovey

Dovey, Dovey
I'll take you down
Remember I see behind me

Dovey, Dovey
I'll take you down
Remember I see behind me


Rosetta Stone

Slept for a long time
Gone for a long time
If you ain't hiding
You can't see

Stand me where I can see you
Fill my pockets, fill me in
If I ain't collecting I can't win

Everybody goes to the window
I can't remember what's outside
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
Sleep with the rosetta stone

Stay here where I can see you
It's not a good time that I like
It's a soft a cold and a high


Carnival Wig

I keep meeting you and meeting
I have promises to keep
I keep making them and leaving

That looks like a carnival wig
And two shiners
And two shiners

Let's just say it crawled across the snow

It looks like your left hand
Don't love me
Don't love me

I won't be afraid
When my ears ring and my head spins
I'll be on your good side
