THE CHARIOT LYRICS

1. Yanni Depp

Blank stare.
Smile, With teeth exposed.
Novocain.
All we are, are crocodiles.
Black out.
Blessed we come and blessed we go.
But this world is full of white teeth and black lungs.
The skin bares no scars, but it is gray.
Your smile is so great, but your face is blank.
Think not.
Don't think.
Suffice.
The revolutionary fade...
"I get bored" your drowning in ankle deep water.

2. Phil Cosby (Before There Was Atlanta, There Was Douglasville)

Ten thousand times ten thousand.
Walking and marching and running and shoving and pressing on.
Step by step, to the grave, marching on.
You have a song; unsung.
I sing a new song; falling on deaf ears.
Unsung.

3. Vin Affleck (Goodnight My Lady And A Forever Farewell)

This horseless carriage leads me home.
My hands remain folded.
My life remains a Sunday.
Brick by brick I built this staircase.
Brick by brick I walk on.
Situated just below the ground and just above your head.
Throw your roses, throw your tears down.
If we don't meet (again) this side of heaven, make sure you're right.
Stutter.

4. Kenny Gibler (Play The Piano Like A Disease)

Fight priest, Fight.
Take pictures and make "alright"
What you have lost,
Give pride back to the ground.
You got "all you want."
But you've got a wreck.
Everyone in this whole wide world.
Wake up and panic.
Fortune wears a red dress, but her bones smell of death.
Panic.
They all stare, but no one seeks.
They all claim, but no one speaks.
They all hear what they want.
Panic preacher, panic.
Beware of these sheep in the costume of wolves lies,
They come in pairs of two and we only die twice,
But for such a long time.
Just because you kiss a lot, that don't mean you're in love.
Just because you have begun, that doesn't mean you've won.
Well I was a second son, not born but just once, and all my friends be gray.
The fade out.
They all close the door and no one speaks out loud.
The fade out.
Take my heart.
Prophet.

5. Sargeant Savage (Die Interviewer [Germanickly Speaking])

This world is a stage.
Broken bones, no regrets.
This world is a stage and everyone seems to have their opinion.
Stick around, stay for a while.
I am chocking on someone else's blood and the fingertips of God.
So stick around and let me tell you about it because far too many don't say.

6. Donnie Cash (The Company, The Comfort, The Grave)

Walk backwards.
Say goodbye to what's right.
Understanding what makes this, what makes us, what makes us right.
God save this gun slinging generation.
"Tell God I will return in the morning."
This Christ you preach, I know, but who are you?
Your hands are tied to blind men, whose hands are tied to blind men.
Figure eights.
This pistol is my ministry.
