Racing toward the fever
Salted stains in the shape of continents
Sitting shotgun in his walk
the wish is father to the thought
He says tonight
will be the very last time
To get the hell out of here
He's the prince of far gone

pacing every seizure
digging spurs into his chest
he whips himself into the keys
"I am the new born philistine!"
Because the choice of his disease
is your demise
to get the hell out of here
he's the prince of far gone
And he’s always stealing flowers
From my stone
Never once repaying that which he does owe
God help me

the zero hour delegates his suicide
the whitest flag he loves to wave,
and like a newborn finds a yawn
to cash the treasure he has lost
he thinks tonight's going to be
the very last time
to get the hell out of here
he's the prince of far gone
And he’s always stealing flowers
From my stone
Never once repaying that which he does owe
god help him

Desecrate it, Desecrate it all
call broken arrow and level this ground
Desecrate it, Desecrate it all
call broken arrow this is all his fault
And he’s always stealing flowers
From my stone
Never once repaying that which he does owe
god help him

I’ll drop a dime on you first
Lest the backside of my hand
find you sleeping hand over fist
soliciting headlines again
groping the porcelain rim
of a microfiche reader ransacking dawn
you'll try and pry yourself from
a quick grave in a sleuth's boneyard
but that paper trail
you've fawned over so much
is just a dead language

take your armor off
play that executioners song
what's the matter now
are your feet bitten by frost

I’ll drop a dime on you first
commotion sickness
with dramamine pills
commute my sentence
to the 13th floor now
I’ll drop a dime on you first
placebo buttons maime
all the tattle tails
when the dosage
doesn't seem to work now
I’ll drop a dime on you first

you might just serve out
the rest of your life soaked in the deprivation of a faraday tank
laughing your hyena fractures
of false alarms
you've been party to subterfuge
since Jesus was a corporal
it's just Scaffolding
with no building to demolish

Take your armor off
play that executioner’s song
what's the matter now
are your feet bitten by frost

I’ll drop a dime on you first
commotion sickness
with dramamine pills
commute my sentence
to the 13th floor now
I’ll drop a dime on you first
placebo buttons maime
All the tattle tails
When the dosage
Doesn't seem to work now
I’ll drop a dime on you first

Fleet of foot
beat the rising tide
cinder block soles in the clear of my throat
do you know what I found?
do you know what I found?
agitate the crowds
let them coin the phrase
found you hiding out in the alpha hotel now
do you know what I found?

orchards gas lit
and cover the footprints
All points bulletin
Load up your commissary
fifth point
of contact
the amateur noose is willing
fifth point
of contact
the amateur noose
CALLS
and when it calls
and there's always
a subpoena for the past
