Are you a true believer?
'Cause I'm a lucky thief
An enchanted deceiver
At night we're getting some relief
We are the walking disasters
Just like the living dead
No escape 'til the morning
From that freight train in your head
Coming awake in the night time
The vampires disease
The streets ain't safe for those who sleep

Chorus:
Going fast and living cheap
Where we're from we don't need sleep at all
When you're riding on the dawn
Going fast and living cheap
Nevermind the writings on the wall
When you're riding on the dawn

There is no ever after
There's only now until
The next speed fueled disaster
Time's moving on you're standing still
We're always out marauding
Forever breaking night
Look what the devil brought in
Flesh wounds of love or from a fight
Coming awake in the night time
The vampires disease
The streets ain't safe for those who sleep

Chorus:
Going fast and living cheap
Where we're from we don't need sleep at all
When you're riding on the dawn
Going fast and living cheap
Nevermind the writings on the wall
When you're riding on the dawn

Solo

Chorus

What's alright fro the sinner
Should be fine for the saint
It's the flesh that delivers
Us all to the same place
Watch your pious behavior
Who do you think your foolin'?
If you think it won't claim you
Your heart drags you to it

I've heard it before
If I should take a fall
It's the sinner in me taking over
I've told you before
If I should do you wrong
It's the killer in me
Recognize the killer in you
And I'll see it through

Light that falls from the heavens
Darkness rise from the tombs
Waste of time this pretending
Judgment waits for us too
Watch your pious behaviour
Who do you think your foolin'?
If you think it won't claim you
Your heart drags you to it

Watch us build our funeral pyre
To say goodbye to all that we know
Fan the flames as they grow higher
Leave the Earth to bathe in fire
We hear the darkness fall
Into the empty void of it all

Left the place a total wreckage
Cities stand at the bottom of seas
Gravity does not possess us
Watch the Earth reel from a far
As blood crystallizes
Into a garnet red dust

Ashes to ashes we drowned in the sea
Something for nothing, that's what we believed
Decaying metal and sulfurous rust
Came ashes to ashes and dust to dust

It's always been a thirsty world
The wicked winds of change they have come
Ice melts and sea levels rising
Rust in the perpetual engine
Lunatics control the asylum
We share a lust for survival

Ashes to ashes we drowned in the sea
'Cause something for nothing, that's what we believed
Decaying metal and sulfurous rust
Came ashes to ashes and dust to dust

Ashes to ashes we drowned in the sea
'Cause something for nothing, that's what we believed
'Cause decaying metal and sulfurous rust
Then ashes to ashes

We walk this path alone
Threadbare with empty chest
See a man dead in the saddle
I'll take his horse, hope for the best
And through us all it travels
One toll of an ancient bell
Ripples through time everlasting
Like coins in a wishing well

So you don't like them folks none
Blow 'em off with the butt of your gun
Leaving scars for the generations
Not aware what it's doing to you
Just scrape yourself off the sole of their shoes
And all the time there's a gun in your wallet

When I make my last decision
It will be with no religion
Ground will take me back again
The Moon receives our spirits risen

One sound goes on forever
A tie that binds us all
We'll stitch it back together
With silver needles and silver thread
And through us all it travels
A toll of an ancient bell
Ripples through time everlasting
Like coins in a wishing well

Hard won, hard fought wars
Find out what heaven was made for
Knocking hard on the iron clad doors
Not aware what it's doing to you
Just scrape yourself off the soles of their shoes
And all the time there's a gun in your wallet

When I make my last decision
Ain't gonna be with no religion
Ground will take me back again
The Moon receives our spirits risen

Lord please spare me your religion
It always seems that I'm in chains
It seems to lack all of your wisdom
To live my life with wealth as my king

Someone always needs to be in chains
For those on top to be untouchable
I find that challenging to my faith
And slipping through an open door
Better watch your back for sure

Lord please spare me your religion
It always seems that I'm in chains
It seems to lack all of your wisdom
To live my life with wealth as my king
