Colder (Hell is Growing)
c. '13 Vlayman

You keep on tellin' me I'm lookin' so good,
You keep on saying we're gettin' younger,
But this here, my dear, is real life,
And we ain't starrin' in The Hunger.

CH: You keep sayin' we ain't gettin' any older,
And Hell is growin' colder

You keep callin' out too all your old friends,
You keep sending out old portraits,
You keep tellin' them yer glad yer not them,
But you never leave your fortress.

CH

You live on champers and the drugs you like to take
You hardly ever see the sunlight
You never sleep and you're never fully wake
You only move about in moonlight

Ravenous
c. '13 Vlayman

I can't make it thru before the winter comes
I just know I'm gonna do sompin'dumb

The emptiness of my heart is cavernous
Deep down inside, I'm Ravenous

Stuck in these mountains, I go down the hill
Gotta do sompin' to get my fill


The risk of my hunger is hazardous
Deep down inside, I'm Ravenous

I can't wait to see you, oh, my love
I hope not every one makes me numb

The emptiness of my heart is cavernous
Deep down inside, I'm Ravenous
The risk of my hunger is hazardous
Deep down inside, I'm Ravenous

The emptiness of my heart is cavernous
Deep down inside, I'm Ravenous
The risk of my hunger is hazardous
Deep down inside, I'm Ravenous
Deep down inside, I'm Ravenous
Way down inside, I'm Ravenous

Your Retinue
c. '13 Vlayman

Speaking of things that don't really matter
Whining 'bout stuff that means nothin' to us
Bitchin 'bout shit you admit's got you rattled
Fakin' is what a faker does

Fakin' is what a faker does

You got all them to take care of you
Give the problem to your retinue 2x

Drinking in places so far from home
Thinking ten of your friends makes you tough
Lacking the balls to go it alone
Posing is what a poser does

Posing is what a poser does

You got all them to take care of you
Give the problem to your retinue 2x

VVV, "Colder" almost has a strangely acoustic punk "Sun Studios" vibe; what about some slappy-back on the leady-vox?

In the Night_7-20-13 challenge
c. '13 Vlayman

Feelin' the darkness is the way it's supposed to be
In the darkness is the only time I feel a bit free
This is the darkness that's talkin' to you
I am the darkness and I'm gonna break on through

In the night 3x
I found the light

Outside your window is where I am likely to be
Look out your window and you just might mebbe see me
Out here in the darkness that's me talkin' to you
I am the darkness and I'm gonna break on through

Mo-Fo Blues
c. '13 Vlayman

This ain't a motherfuckin' blues song
I ain't gonna tellya how it all went wrong
My dog didn't just up and die
My old lady didn't stab me in the out in the eye

This ain't a motherfuckin' blues song
I ain't gonna tellya how it all went wrong
My grandaddy didn't lay hisself out under a train
My guitars didn't get ruined in no hurricane

This ain't a motherfuckin' blues song
I ain't gonna tellya how it all went wrong
It ain't matter I ain't stopped drinkin' for years
It ain't important I ain't got no more tears

Wayside
c. '13 Vlayman

I don't have any more feelings for you
I don't really care what it is that you happen to do
It's so sad that it's come to this,
and I know that you're gonna be pissed

I don't think that you oughta think about me
I'm pretty sure that none of that's relevantly
It's so sad that it's come to this,
and I know that you're gonna be pissed

It's funny how it all goes by the wayside
It's funny how it all goes away
It's funny how it all went by the wayside
Have a nice day

I'm tryin' not to laff as I look at yer face here
I'm trying not to recall how you thought you had a place here
It's so sad that it's come to this,
and I know that you're gonna be pissed

Crickets
c. '13 Vlayman

Out by the old canal, where we made some of our deals
It was a party spot, yeah, where we tried to cop some feels

Doya think yer dreaming?
Doncha hear the crickets screaming?

I drove my daddy's car, sometimes the leather marked with blood
It was a big old thing, I recall gettin' stuck out there in the mud

Oooh, doya think yer dreaming?
Doncha hear the crickets screaming?
Doya think yer dreaming?
Can'tcha hear the crickets screaming?

We had a grand old time, down there below the highway
I wish I'd kept what was mine, I wish I'd tried to to it my way

Oooh, doya think yer dreaming?
Doncha hear the crickets screaming?
Oooh, doya think yer dreaming?
Can'tcha hear the crickets screaming?

Oooh, doya think yer dreaming?g?
Doncha hear the crickets screaming?
Oooh, doya think yer dreaming?
Can'tcha hear the crickets screaming?
Oooh, doya think yer dreaming?
Doncha hear the crickets screaming?

F.o.L. (8-20-13 challenge)
c. '13 Vlayman

I owe 'em money and I admit it
But I got lots more problems then their piddly little credit
I owe 'em money and I admit it
So they can sue me

I gotta problem, and I admit it
But I need lots more credit than I been gettin'
I gotta problem, and I admit it
So they can sue me

These are the facts of life, in this modern world
These are the facts of life when yer tryna make some girl

There is a thing, and it's been bad
Ther is the thing but I know we'll get past it
There is this thing and it's been bad
If they gotta they can do me

Daddy Rock
c. '13 Vayman

And I couldn't be more lost if you dropped me off a mountain
Somewhere in the wild west in the woods above a placid lake
And I wouldn't be more lost if you left me inna fountain, drunk and
passed out and with a chain locked on my leg

You know it ain't just all talk
Some daddy's do know how to rock

And I couldn't be more lost if you had tried to tell me, that you really
love me and you didn't mean to leave
And I wouldn't be more lost if you shot me in a rocket, out to outter
space and way past Saturn's rings

And I couldn't be more lost if I awoke in your arms, with a head full
of gin and not a stitch to wear
And I wouldn't be more lost if I realized that you were dead, and I
had a gun in one hand and the other wraped in your hair

On the Water (Bread)
c. '13 Vlayman

Standin' on the corner, with my shit in my hand
Tryna figger how I'm gonna, make my way across this land

Don't wanna throw my bread on the water
and end up dead

Ridin' in a Cadillac, a phony-ass SUV
Thumbed my way to Chicago, passin' thru St. Louie

Don't wanna throw my bread on the water
and end up dead
Don't wanna lose my bread on the water
and end up dead

Jane she's got a pistol, she chased me on my way
With her patchouli and crystals, I knew I hadda call it a day

Don't wanna throw my bread on the water
and end up dead
Don't wanna throw my bread on the water
and end up dead
