lyrics
WOODEN HORSE
forest in flames as the kingdom crumbles
faithless woman, besotten son
begotten of a man she used to know
way past the mark of where it's safe to go
don't play with the goddess
if you don't want to get burned
a thousand soldiers marching past
never seem to learn
I fear that bitch when she brings presents
she'd rather burn a slap across my cheek
weak and brilliant, pretender to the crown
invisible army brings my city down
INFECTION
running rampant through my nerves
buy me time to write the words
...infection...
red riot screaming in my head
running rampant through my nerves
give me strength to write the words
...red circles...
concentric illness in my head
like riots screaming in my head
red riot screaming in my head
rage through my ragged brain
synapses snapped by screaming train
make me wise and kill me fast
freedom tastes like broken glass
running rampant through my nerves
I'd rather fight than write the words
red riot screaming in my head
can't find no beauty in my head
fucked up the beauty in my head
...no cure, no medicine |

WIN THE WAR
I used to think that I had demons
but they don't compare to hers
my baby has demons
so sharp and so sweet
my baby has demons but she's fast on her feet
she's tired of being a pincushion
so she's made herself so sharp
my baby has demons
so tough and so hard
her heart it is barred
my baby has demons, she knows it's no sin
my baby has demons and sometimes they win
I see her fighting, I see her cry
my nails I'm biting
I will not lie
my baby has demons, she knows it's no sin
my baby has demons and one day she'll win
