Lyrics The Lawrence Arms

The Lawrence Arms

Acheron River

It’s an inorganic rehash of a process so profound

It’s a thousand freshly sharpened stakes dug deep into the ground

It’s the heads of all dissenters and the distant plume of smoke

And I hope those fuckers choke

Did you hear the dead, decaying circus lumbering ahead

Did you see the starving elephants or did you turn away instead

Man, I’m so high and lonesome at the bottom of the hill

Never thought I’d lose it, but it’s looking like I will

So get out, get out, get out the ropes, get out the stones and let’s get low

Get out, get out, get out the way I’m drowning this mortal soul

Take me down to the river take me to where all the poisons go

And let’s ride that fucker home woah woah

Season seven of the worst show that I’ve ever seen

Starts around eleven and it's stars all weary me

'Cause I don’t try to shake shit up and I don’t bitch or give a fuck

I’m just on the train that’s stuck in several thousand different ruts

Well, It’s the part where everybody’s drinking just to die

And the point where everyone’s got bloodshot blackened eyes

Here’s the fucking spoiler, everybody dies

You fuck it hard all goddamn night

You’re goddamn right, you’re goddamn right

So get out, get out, get out the ropes, get out the stones and let’s get low

Get out, get out, get out the way I’m drowning this mortal soul

Take me down to the river take me to where all the poisons go

And let’s ride that fucker home woahaohoah

Oh baby if I’m dying can I have another round

I know, but I want one even if I don’t need it now

I’m dying high and lonesome at the ending of my days

Get out, get out, get out the ropes, get out the stones and let’s get low

Get out, get out, get out the way I’m drowning this mortal soul

Take me down to the river take me to where all the poisons go

And we’ll ride that fucker home
