And so he said!/ That nothing ever happened, without consequences so lets live like we are going to die!/ And then he shouted, "The law will not punish us, for it will be us that will be punishing them!!"/ And so he knew, that your unmistakable Stench of Good Will, just reaks of decay!/ And we will fight! Because these waste lands are ours.. and we will want, NOTHING! ELSE!/ And I'm sorry my men/ Everything was underestimated... once again/ Ten thousand bullets cannot stop one million hearts/ Everything Just Seems so grim, everything is falling apart/ And so he thought, to sacrifice his men was the only option for him to survive/ So he ran, the most tempting woman ever is nothing more than a fist full of dollars/ So he used, Isabelle the only person in his life that could possibly ever love him/ And so they came with horses and with nitrate, Barrels pointing straight at their heads!/ But Isabelle Blue what could you do??/ Nothing ever mattered and I thank you for/ But I gotta leave/ The law is after me so I will make things short and sweet/

Wooooah/ Life on the port is every man’s dream come true/ Except for me, and my partner’s in crime/ We’ve got bigger things, we want to do/ And yoooooou/ Got everything under control/ Sleeping in this shit hole/ And I guess it is fine/ I guess it is swell/ But I got a heart/ That was born to raise hell/ So we will make examples of you all/ Oooh, come with me, come with me/ We’ll find Candied Island and you will see/ And It’s Alright/ We’re here to pick fights/ And we are here to tear down these walls/ To build up monuments for something prophetically obscene/ And the accelerated shortcomings of our fellow human beings/ And to build a place to call our own/ You’ve got Harlot Wives/ Bourbon and Opium/ You’re shackled to inherited Mansions/ So Pardon Me, if I must Concede/ I just don’t see the attraction/ As for me, And Every Gash, Every Bruise/ Every Scar, And Every Scrape on my body/ Reminds me how, why I left town/ And I wanted to take you down with me/

none!

Oh Volga, you Mighty bitch/ So fucking Deep and Wide/ I know you’re forced betrayal/ But I can’t help but feel no pride/ Ironically the life you give is sucking ours bone dry/ Now pull hard; One! Two! Three! So Heave! Heave Ho, my friends/ We’ve got rifles to our backs and we’ll pull until the end/ And in our grave, Call us… The Volga Boatmen/ I’m not Romanticizing the labours of our lost/ You hungry rats you’ve done nothing but exhaust/ This ship is burning and you will fucking die in it/ Now sing loud; One! Two! Three!

Stubborn! 03:49
I feel like I am going 80 today/ Metaphorically speaking I’m talking about my brain/ I’ve seen ballistic missiles go slower than me/ And if I slow down now I won’t be set free/ Because I know, You know, that I know too/ That everybody here wants us to pull through/ With the promises we broke and the promises we’ll break/ We got to much to lose, to much shit is at stake/ And you want it, you want it, you want it so bad/ But you can’t have it yet/ And you love her, you love her, you love her so much/ That’s why you can never forget/ I heard my heart detonate in flames/ And that’s not good cause I need It everyday/ For systematic circulation and prevention of affixation/ And so I can scream/ And I got problems, but that’s nothing new/ And if you want to get analytical, you got them too/ And so do our parents, and so do our friends/ Because people are people, and they can’t defend/ Every single choice that they will make/ So let’s take a deep breath and celebrate our mistakes/ Because I got nothing to gain and everything to lose/ But you already know this cause you walked in my shoes/

Not our song.. not our problem.

Odessa!! 02:59
Come my lads it’s time to get back on this boat/ We’ve got to head to the land of trade and gold/ We’ve sifted through the bullshit of this current world/ Grab the ropes, for we sail to Singapore/ And when we land my friend’s we will be treated as kings/ And the women will come to us with seduction in their swing/ But if they claim us lepers, vampires, or exiles/ Grab the ropes/ And we will set Sail once again/ So we will make way, to Mexico/ The land where I am from, and used to live so many years ago/ And we will meet old friends, and drink with family/ And the women! Will regard our names in infamy/ And when the infantry come to capture our heads/ It wasn’t our faults, constable that he just happen to bled/ We will grab our wallets, and break off these shackles/ Back to the boat boys, we must sail again/ So my second in command, Officer please!/ Where shall we go, what destination do you see/ Odessa, good Captain is what this map is telling me/ Then to Odessa we go, to drink with the Aristocracy/ And I imagine my crew, when we land/ That the streets are paved in gold and every woman will lend their hand/ For a night of cavorting, consigning, and collaborating/ Their love, to our demands/ They’ll scream indulgences while we scream curses/ Odessa is where we’ll land/
9.
Friends, let’s sever these ties/ Don’t you understand that this path will be our demise/ We will arm myself with swords and bow alike/ And defend these castle walls from those who want us buried alive/ The Monarchy, and our parents too/ The law enforcement will also be subdued/ Anyone who stands our way will soon feel regret/ We have nothing to lose and we are upset/ This is nothing like you have seen before/ This is more, something worth fighting for/ You’ve called us vampires, we call you a Feast/ Fascist Degradation is nothing but deceased/ Don’t hide behind your children/ Because we will make them our family/ Singings songs of adultery, good times and no regrets/ Singing songs, they can never forget/ Dynasty! A word only in books/ Nothing is so romantic than hanging a crook/ And the thieves aren’t us, So far from the truth/ How can we steal, when we’ve given millions to you/ And every story from everybody’s mouth/ Will be how we fought to take control of this land/ Don’t you understand a thousand deaths will not be in vain/ Our scheme of things have never been so grand/ So we will fight and we will deny/ The purging of our rights/ To destroy one’s heart and make them forget/ Is something we consider a threat
10.
Alexandra/ Remember the time I told you/ To wait for me/ And I lied/ Left you behind/ Cause the crew and I raped the sea/ I’ve sailed the globe/ Shared a bed or two/ Terrorized towns and even been subdued/ And all those women/ I’ll bid adieu/ Cause none of them can match up to you/ And I Dread to Think About a Day Without You/ And I hope you Dread That Too/ And I dread to think about a day without you/ And I hope you Dread that too/
11.
Whats this WHATS THIS/ This island isn’t right/ There’s Rats instead of sugar cane and nothing to delight/ Sir I don’t think/ Our Island does exist/ And the skies are black/ With a murdours flight/ The Crows tear out the sun turning the day into night/ And They sing/ There is no Candy Here/ You Will Never Make It Out alive/

about

This album has been in the works for over a year. 60+ tracks used to record 12 sloppy as fuck songs with more energy than a nuclear power plant. Eclectic, Chaotic, a fucking mess, but undoubtedly beautiful.
