Nowhere 03:11
It’s up in smoke And that Holy Ghost Is loud and clear coming right through Call it close A fatal dose Or highway robbery Salt in the wound And it’s what it is It’s who we are Been wondering Have we gone too far Out of sight And out of mind Nowhere A little strange Rearranged When your homeland Wins the lottery A Powerball Build that wall And when that Anthem plays Don’t you take a knee But these cocaine lines On our mirror Have made it hard For us to see clear Out of sight Out of mind Nowhere But O sweet Cyrus Won’t you come and heal our land Like the old king of kings And an American Flag Tell tall tales Use them words the best ones you have Cause God only knows The first stay first and they last stay last And out of sight Out of mind Nowhere It’s up in smoke And that Holy Ghost Is loud and clear But we don’t want you

Apostasy 03:24
Head over heels the earth is gone Dead in the water coming undone Remember the sound of your fall from grace Meat on the bone won't go to waste Thrown to the wolves a slap in the face But you got out clean Apostasy Head full of secrets but nothings wrong Turns out that faking it is a turn on Lie to yourself until you believe Shake a few hands kiss a few babies The weight of it all has got you weak in the knees But you got out clean Apostasy And nothing wrong No nothing wrong There’s nothing wrong with me Though I’m ill prepared There’s nothing wrong with me Though I overshare There’s nothing wrong with me And I know you’re scared There’s nothing wrong with me And I still don’t care I don’t care Remember the sound of your fall from grace Meat on the bone won't go to waste Can’t go home oh a slap in the face But you got out clean Apostasy

I don’t know it tastes fine Boiled twice with iodine Fell in love like moonshine And it’ll leave you blind Cataracts and hindsight Whiskey neat and bar fights Found a girl that feels right And she has the time Plans change And the world spins on The Sun sets Rises at dawn Mercy Please don’t be Long The birds and bees Our economy May crash and burn Locked down and wound tight Losing sleep and birth rates Ban a flag and criticize Them old rebel ways Coming down on heritage Goddamn right our privilege Trail of tears I don’t give a shit I want my Dixieland Plans change And the world spins on The Sun sets Rises at dawn Mercy Please don’t be Long This conspiracy Pornography Has taken hold Plans change And the world spins on The Sun sets Rises at dawn Mercy Please don’t be Long Well pardon me Your idolatry Has found a home I don’t know it tastes fine Boiled twice with iodine
