"Devils In The Rose Petals"

Been known for constant dwellin'
in a cellar where the angels die
strangled That's my daily life
F**k labels from a strangers eyes

Twisted Metal in my head
burnin' up the rose petals
Flowers In The Attic atmosphere
til the poison settles

Fill thy home with rebels
dressed as devils on this Hallowed Eve
See me where the gallows meet
the shallows 'n' epiphanies

Shadows gather differently
for cattle than for human beings
Standin' tall but my feet are weak
Never find me walkin' down easy street

Sleazy money makes greasy palms
Don't feed me nothin' Leave me alone
Bleed for the fun of the grievin' mode
in a sea of hurt til the demons show

Brandon Lee 'n' a graveyard crow
in a dreary city where most won't go
How can I know these things 'n' still never grow
til I loathe too much it condemns my foes

Screamin' loud creates a stir of echoes
on the country farm where family pets goes
Hold on tight It ain't the time to let go
less you sever your hand Admire how the red flows

Coffins hot when it's where the dead go
sleep life off Growin' wings like Red Bull
Sift through dirt Give a smirk 'n' eye roll
Slow-mo death stroll through the petals
