lyrics

Caught off guard, I'm a twisted dog
A tangled spine just spits up, spits up, spits up
Shock glamor, hogtied to rot
We'd take the world if the spinning would stop

You used to say you'd make time for a fiend
Sweet leopard remember me
On an outlaw's judgement day
If I could keep these memories away

Baby, I found oblivion on the executioners block
Nothing comes close to the fame
Lost from memories & I can't make it back
Cheap bleach, just drowning my brain

And there's no coming back for me
No sign of glory in ecstasy
Acid dropper in the corpses mouth
Split the jaw in half, rip the body bag

You used to say you'd make time for a fiend
Sweet leopard don't abandon me
From first love to our judgment day
Please keep these memories away

Burn alive in a cactus sauna, bled to death in the sand

Knife fight, got in the way,
grinning teeth on his face
The axe falls
into the hands
of the warden's son-in-law

You used to say you'd make time for a fiend
Sweet leopard don't abandon me
From first love to our judgment day
Please keep these memories away
