words by Elvis and Shade
Verse 1:
Smoke rolls out of the ghost town bar,
Neon flickers like a dying star,
Whiskey burns like a preacher’s sin,
And the jukebox whispers, “Don’t go in.”
Verse 2:
There’s blood on the Bible, dust on the gun,
Ain’t no angels where the outlaws run,
Mama prayed, but the devil won,
Now I’m ridin’ with the ghosts ‘til the mornin’ sun.
Chorus:
’Cause life is Stephen King meets Alice in Chains,
Screamin’ in the dark with a fist full of pain,
Love’s a grave you dig with your own damn hands,
And the devil keeps time in a rock ‘n’ roll band.
Verse 3:
Black crow sittin’ on a power line,
Sings a lullaby for the end of time,
Dreams smell sweet ‘til they rot and fade,
Like roses on a shallow grave.
Bridge:
I ain’t scared of dyin’, hell, I been there twice,
The reaper’s got rhythm, and he’s rollin’ dice,
Chains around my heart, ghosts in my veins,
I’m half man, half pain, and all that remains.
Chorus:
Yeah, life is Stephen King meets Alice in Chains,
Thunder in my soul and poison in my veins,
Love’s a cross I drag through the pourin’ rain,
Singin’ “God help the damned who were born insane.”
Outro:
Light a match, let the gasoline gleam,
Another chapter in a fever dream,
This outlaw life don’t come clean —
It’s just blood, smoke, and gasoline.

We’re all built from the same dust and dreams,
Different roads, but the same means.
