Reverend Charisma

from the Exogamy Album by Wedlock

Do you believe every word, from my lying lips? I’ll promise you heaven, from an apocalypse It’s because of the skin, you’re living in That makes you all so guilty of sin I’ll quench the thirst, your soul desires Because I know, I’m the chosen Messiah If you drink the cup, inside of your hand You can follow me, to the promised land.

I’ve got guns, I’ve got dynamite CNN is my satellite You’d better not, come inside ‘Cos no one here is getting out… alive What’s your hurry, what’s your rush? It’s easy enough, to be one of us. The enemies, that I ‘ve made Can say hello to my hand grenade I’ve spiked the punch, a little too much It tastes a bit rough,but it keeps you in touch I’ll never forget, the promise I made Now have a taste of my famous kool aid. I’ve got guns, I’ve got dynamite No one here is gonna mess with me tonight You’d better not, come inside ‘Cos no one here, is coming out… alive… My name is Jim Jones My name is Jim Jones My name is Jim Jones Who the hell are you? I will deliver

Still Unsatisfied

from the Exogamy Album by Wedlock

I’ve been searching day by day Trying to find another way To get around it. I can take any pill I want, but still there’s no other way To get around it. If I don’t face the truth I know Something else will take control. I try to fake it line by line. But I’m Still Unsatisfied

Did my mirror lie? My mirror lied. It’s, taken hold of me The chains won’t set me free. When I think about it I can burn anything I want But when the smoke disappears I haven’t found it Can someone please, tell me why One day you’re born, and the next you die? I don’t know, but I feel So unsatisfied, so unsatisfied… If I shoot it up in self-defense It doesn’t change my circumstance. I sit around, hallucinate I watch the walls, and the drying paint. But I’m Still Unsatisfied But I’m Still Unsatisfied I’m watching my world grow more unstable I’ve tried to cope, but I’m just not able I’m Unsatisfied My mirror lied. Unsatisfied.

Discopharma

from the Exogamy Album by Wedlock

Out on the floor with boys and girls There’s too many lights and too much noise At the Disco-pharmacy It was buy one get one free I’ve been drinking alcohol As you stand against the wall But if I motion over here Can I whisper in your ear? I go to church on a Sunday But it’s a Saturday night, and if you’re here alone Then come with me I’ll make you feel so good I’ll make you feel so good Take my hand, you’ll understand Why it feels so good Can’t you feel my passion? It’s wider than the ocean I’m burning with desire I’ll set the night on fire. I go to work on a Monday to a job That I despise, because it pays my bills Dissolving pills upon our tongue And it feels good to be young We will melt in ecstasy, with your body next to me And through the haze of alcohol I won’t recall your name at all Tomorrow morning we’ll be free But in case you remember me I get paid on a Friday, and I’d really love to see you again Next Saturday night… You made me feel so good You made me feel so good You made me feel so good…
