[00:14.62]Lyrics by:Bianca Casady/Sierra Casady
[00:29.25]Composed by:Bianca Casady/Sierra Casady
[00:43.88]Bums rushed out the door
[00:45.36]Momma didn't want you anymore
[00:47.32]A thornless rose in her side
[00:49.36]A burden despite being bonded by blood lines
[00:52.83]It wasn't the right time
[00:54.44]She said no more free load
[00:56.92]This is the end of the freak show
[00:59.13]Half shaved and heart broke
[01:00.79]Half slewed and half snapped
[01:02.23]A rat trap snapping back
[01:04.22]Hand bone hand me down
[01:05.87]Baloney sandwich lonely clown
[01:07.60]Smoke laugh toke craft
[01:09.36]Porn blood piss grass
[01:11.08]Kiss miss heart hand
[01:12.71]Tried to take a stand
[01:14.13]Down dropped sales low
[01:16.20]The joys and woes
[01:17.67]The curtains slowly close
[01:24.91]Burning down the house to smoke them out
[01:31.76]I was on the brink like so many times
[01:34.71]Got children and wives waving forks and knives
[01:38.48]Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
[01:45.31]Burning down the house to smoke them out
[01:51.73]The new sound circles round
[01:55.12]Slaughter raging death dice fall hot house burn down
[01:59.20]Foes upon foes west to east it goes
[02:02.36]The dead girl says let's just be friends
[02:05.59]In the glorious tone of marrow and bone
[02:08.88]These days of ore
[02:10.77]The chance we meet once more
[02:13.11]The smoke lightning crack asunder
[02:16.39]The peel of guns and the boom of thunder
[02:21.33]Burning down the house to smoke them out
[02:27.98]I was on the brink like so many times
[02:31.23]Got children and wives waving forks and knives
[02:35.05]Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
[02:41.71]I was on the brink like so many times
[03:29.84]Burning down the house to smoke them out
[03:36.57]Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
[03:43.65]Burning down the house to smoke them out
[03:50.37]Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
[03:57.10]Burning down the house to smoke them out
[04:03.88]Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
[04:10.75]Burning down the house to smoke them out
[04:17.66]Burning down the house the dead girl shouts
