I Shalt Become - Louisiana Voodoo lyrics



Tracks



01. Lust

Music & lyrics by S. Holliman
Lady Caroline Lamb, where are you now?
Your love knew no bounds

A picture of ill health engraved with scars
Slips into foreign tongue from afar

Thou false to him, thou fiend to me
One day, some day, I will flee

02. Strangers

Music & lyrics by S. Holliman
God eats no confidence
Ruins as a matter of course
And four hours worn on me

A wasted touch of remorse
A quaalude for five

03. Total Perspective Vortex

Music & lyrics by S. Holliman
The most horrible imagination
And desperation

Same ugly joke from the distorted clown
The dried, peeling paint
And eyes full of the sadness
Another nightmare

A forced laughter

04. Louisiana Voodoo

Music & lyrics by S. Holliman
I've been known to practice Santeria
Oft to conjure and exorcise your fevered demons
I've been known to imagine, nay, dream
That a little of the old witchcraft only hurts a few
So open the gate for me

05. Drowning

Music & lyrics by S. Holliman
We're left to drown by the Indianapolis...
Suffocating and torn
It never sinks in the weight of expectation
As the bodies drift away

06. Rain

Music & lyrics by S. Holliman
The dull aches with the crash of thunder
The rain choking another cigarette

Still, the drowned rats have earned their love

07. Riot

Music & lyrics by S. Holliman
And so we watch them burn

Breathe in your dust
Rage in your walls
And I can see the fire in your eyes

Under fire in your mind

08. Braquemard

Music & lyrics by S. Holliman
Sometimes the wounds have to wait
But I'll torture you before too long
We just don't want Jesus to see

09. Brief Glimpses Of Death

Music & lyrics by S. Holliman
I'm the cold, steel barrel of the gun.

Shame that time and age tear us apart
One passes, one remains

Fate wielding unforgiving hand
The politics of your nothingness

And you're still staring down at me

10. The Rats In The Walls

Music & lyrics by S. Holliman
History says I'm going crazy
It's nothing... A greater pain than myself

The problems come at night
When it feels like you're all alone
With only your Paris Green beside you
And the same old pile of bones

It is not my fault that I want to eat your corpse
