Nevermore

Lyrics

Driving down blistered severe
 The rapacious maw of our despair
 Black dog follows, strip club echoes
 The raven's shadow across the ghetto
 Up the hill in an unmarked grave
 The mother of American darkness lays
 Liberty or death to start the battle
 There's nonesuch place for human chattel
 Hanging by a threat
 Now you can choke on it
 Hanging by a threat
 So go and choke on it
 This is a reckoning
 You hear the raven's scream
 Hanging by a threat
 So go and choke on it
 Across the devil's own half acre
 There's rusted gallows for an angel
 The ghosts that built this city scream
 Of commerce and inhumanity
 Cancer rides the freeway's edge
 Falling statues and cigarettes
 Bullets whip the screaming kettle
 As teargas cloaks the monumental
 Hanging by a threat
 Now you can choke on it
 Hanging by a threat
 So go and choke on it
 This is a reckoning
 You hear the raven's scream
 Hanging by a threat
 So go and choke on it
 ♪
 Chained beneath a parking lot
 Savaged on the auction block
 In antebellum geography
 Rage, horror, history
 ♪
 Hanging by a threat
 Now you can choke on it
 Hanging by a threat
 So go and choke on it
 This is a reckoning
 You hear the raven's scream
 Hanging by a threat
 So go and choke on it
 ♪
 Nevermore
 Nevermore
