Alone and afraid Afraid of what's to come I have no protection Where I roam My hearts desires Are never fulfilled Leaves me behind Leaves me ill Eternities in solitude Forever in pain Were my life Ever not in vain?

On a beautiful Day of spring I was walking Through the green The sun was out My mind content Then out of the blue My life would end Up on the trail Behind a pine He stood and said: "Your life is mine" He was of great stature He wielded an axe He was quick With his attacks He took a swing He hit my skull And his axe Wasn't dull My blood was flowing Like a fountain He dragged my body Up on the mountain He proceeded to dig To dig my grave He said: "Son, you were brave" Then he said: "You begged, at your last breath But for too long, you've begged for death" "Don't cry wolf son It's over now If you ever wondered Why and how" "Sometimes irony Can kill you first Before the plague Or death by thirst" "Anyways son You ain't dead This is a nightmare You're in your bed" "What felt like blood Is your sweat And what was sleep You thought was death" "But son My advice for you Stop praying for death Or death will come It's true"

The heat of summer Is slowly taking hold Sweat and tears Not silver nor gold Slowly driving me Into madness avenue Into thoughts of bad behaviour Like leaving you When I say leave I mean fuck off and die I don't see my value As I continue to cry I wish my body Was rotting like my mind That I could leave This mortal world behind With every breath More hate I spew And measure my failures Against all of you I have reached a point I don't want to get old Put me in my coffin In the comfort of cold Set me free! Release me! Comfort of cold! Comfort of cold!

The despair of dreaming Of a truth never will be I'm in my nightmare Can't you see? The people around me Are like thorns in my skin With their perfect lives Not letting me in On the outside I am left All is stolen Victim of theft Rhyme or reason Gone with the wind Guilty, guilty Sin, sin, sin

When I die put that bottle in my hand All these years on earth, it was my only friend When you dig a hole and gonna bury me Put that bottle of Jim Beam to rest beside me All my life I've been living on the run Hanging out in bars and hotel rooms annoying everyone Living on the road running from coast to coast Spending many nights in jail, like a gunman at his post When I die, you don't have to cry You don't have to feel no feelings inside Never cared or had no feelings for no one The only one I cared for was the one who made me cum Live my life like a loner on the trail Some of the nights in jail, I couldn't afford no bail No one to call, no one to see me through So I bought a gun one day and I came gunning after you Living on the road, playing scumfuc rock 'n' roll I'm on the road and I haven't got no home Never lived nowhere long enough to call home I'm just an outlaw scumfuc, playing my rock 'n' roll Never had nothing that could keep me satisfied 'Cept my booze and my drugs and that woman by my side She was no woman, but she's good enough for me She's got that cunt between her legs and that's all I need So when I die put that bottle by my side Bury me with ol' Jim Beam and I'll be on my hell ride When I die, when I die Down to Hell is my final destination When I die put that bottle by my side It's the only friend I had in life and it kept me satisfied Living on the run you'll never take me out alive I bought a gun, I'm leaving now Bye-bye, bye-bye
