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 ravens 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 ravens 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 ravens scream Hanging by a threat So go and choke on it
