1.	Hollywood Apocalypse 05:16	lyrics	buy track
You were no one when you got here You’ll be no one when you leave Johnny coming lately But no one is deceived You want to claim the kingdom But the circus gates are closed You’re living in nostalgia For a world you didn’t know The glitz and glamor faded A city bought and sold Some history to dream of While the corpse is getting cold Nobody will remember The days you came and went Nobody will remember Who you fucked and what you dreamt You’re a Hollywood apocalypse Not quite a shooting star Twinkle, twinkle little bitch Just a shadow in bar Everything you dreamed of Was dead before you came Just another born too late Crawling the walk of fame All glamour is nostalgia Tinseltown’s in pain The legends dead and buried You can’t dig them up again The sunset strip is shining But the scene is in decay You can keep the dead light flickering But this dog won’t have it’s day You are nothing but a shadow Of the greats already gone Just a picture of a picture And someone else’s song You can chase the ghost of greatness Down the boulevard of dreams Standing on the edge of hell Ignoring all the screams You can sit on corners dreaming Of better lays and better days But the emptiness comes calling Since you’re living on a grave Nobody will remember And it’s just a total shame Nobody will remember Where you went and what you made Hollywood forever Cemetery streets Sunset boiling Everything bleeds Hollywood burning The dream is dead Last fool standing Until the end
2.	Suicide 04:21	lyrics	buy track
Shaking hands and kissing babies Scandal rocks the evening news Once the savior of the cities Now you write their Sunday blues Hookers, murder and cocaine Informants, killers, smoking guns Once they’ve looked into your shadows Your American dream is fucking done Locking, loaded and corrupted Riots, looting, robbery Fight for freedom and for profit If you can cut it make it bleed Mayhem, chaos by design Secrets, lies, malevolence Once they see your crumbling kingdom Your currency is all but spent Sirens, police and confusion Prison, media, the end Front page news marks your disgrace Suicide around the bend You’re gonna die… Keep on rotting in the free world With your rotten hidden hand All the money and the power It won’t help you understand This court is now in session …and we promise you the noose All of the voices in your head They don’t intend to lose

Violence in the streets Violence in the blood Violence in the temple Violence is the flood Violence in the home Violence in the church Violence in the city Violence is the dirge I’ve been waiting all my life My hope a gun, my rage a knife I’ve been waiting day by day To be the make them pay Violence in the fire Violence in the flame Violence in the scriptures Violence is the rain Violence in the alley Violence in the schools Violence in the sunset Violence is the tool
4.	The Long Goodbye 04:05	lyrics	buy track
Would you murder me Like I will murder you Would you bury me Like I will bury you Will you forget me Like I will forget you Would you end your life Like I want to do Would you poison me Like I will poison you Would you strangle me Like I will strangle you Will you erase me Like I will erase you Would you end your story Like I went to do This is the long goodbye This is our final night This is the long goodbye We’ve run out of time This is the long goodbye This is our final night This is the long goodbye The end of you and I
