Lyrics:
From the bowery to the brimstone
I tried to find your heart
The drugs of initiation
The bottom of the barrel that drops
I understand your causes
I sympathize the motivation
But all the details of this war are just
Self infatuation, and it's
CHORUS:
1 2 3, nothin's for free
4 5 6, pick up the stick and go home
You'd better own up to me, yeah
(END CHORUS)
*the next verse follows the same chord progression as above*
Manic blood runs thick
Are you looking for a clean escape?
What's left when the locks have all been broken
Young children of authority?
Now how long can you be agile
Dancin' 'tween the altar and the mercy seat?
Now here's a chance to make a choice,
Are you aware of the fire beneath your feet?
(CHORUS)
Yeah, yeah, go home
(Emily's solo)
The basement lies between us
Our fear comes through the door.
Oh, there's nothing left between us,
And the fear becomes a roar.
Once that wheel is in motion
Don't loose what you have found.
I'm talkin' 'bout that burning wheel of tongues
Everything that makes me go round and around.
We're all born in the devil's scorn
They want to see you die.
I'm askin' you, are you true
If everything they say is a lie, a lie?
(CHORUS)
(Amy and Emily ad lib until the end)

(3rd verse is the same as the second; it feeds into the last
chorus, followed by a vocal and lead guitar ad lib; both
guitars end on an Em chord).
