These wounds are deep Don’t seem to be healing Keep salting them up So they just keep bleeding I heard the old ones talk They said the green ones know If you remember how to look They heal you as they grow It’s been two lifetimes I’m more poison than blood now It’s been two lifetimes I'm more poison than blood now I heard the old ones talk They said the green ones know If you remember how to look They heal you as they grow Reverse transfusion Bleed it all out Reverse transfusion I search for the cure In this new world All I find Is dead medicine Nothing green left In these hills All they’ve got for us Is pills It’s dead medicine

Turning Tide 03:51
The beast arrives On golden shores Belly full of souls in chains With chains to spare His ill intent is a stench Like blinding fumes Suffocating fog Still lingers in the air Scorched earth like a great black sea Once full of life Now sighing silently They say the rains of change Have slowly snuffed the flames But we know that below A glowing ember remains Streets of silver Hills of gold It’s every lie you ever told Voices rising Walls fall down You forget you are on sacred ground You can no sooner Burn the sky We are one million miles wide And we were born to survive We are the raging river We are the turning tide We are the turning tide

Letiche 06:56
Pres de l’eau Where the cypress grow Un bebe gait en elle Un souvenir de viol Un souvenir de viol This wretched babe, her hell Born dans les cocodries dwell In desperation she cries Mon dieu, cette bette Please let it die Let it die Pres de l’eau Where the cypress grow Un souvenir de viol Un souvenir de viol As she hold his head below Body sinking heavy, slow Water seeping soul release Father je n’ai pas de fis Drown with me I am sin Drown with me I am your sin I AM LETICHE DOOMED TO THE DEPTHS OF THIS BLACK WATER SEARCHING FOR MY FATHER FOR HIM, FOR VENGEANCE TAKING ANY DAMNED SOULS WHO DARE CROSS THIS UNMOVING OCEAN OF DARKNESS Wash you clean Bapteme eternel

Badlands 04:32
Lost in the badlands Dreaming of rain And a green grass bed The air is hot like an iron brand Every breath i am closer to waking up dead The pale men that surround me Cruel ghosts push me ever further ahead Wish that a river would drown me But these ghosts and their cancer Continue to spread Bone tired and blind Not human in kind Loose these shackles that bind You wanna see me unwind You wanna see me unwind You wanna see me By greedy hands Our blood has soaked this land By greedy hands There’s a red road A red red red Red red red road A red road will lead you home A red red road

She 06:08
She In the still of the night she sleeps Tossing and turning Sweat soaking the sheets One eye open Looks to the door The still of the night Has been unstilled before She In the heat of the day she hides Watching and waiting In darkness She rides One more grain of sand Slips through the fingers Of a clenching hand One more grain of sand He By the cool of the stream he stands Fighting and thriving On grandmother’s land He In an orchard of green and gold Sweating and saving That his fruit May grow old One more grain of sand Slips through the fingers Of a clenching hand One more grain of sand
