no cries for the average man who always pays his lenders
now theres nothing left there in his hand
From the hill they see he's bleeding
They just sell him more empty dreams
Even when he’s on his knees and screaming
Last chance for the average man who works with sweat, pain and callused hands
end of the week he's got nothing left to satisfy his own demands
From the hill they see he's bleeding
They just sell him more empty dreams
Even when he’s on his knees and screaming
Each of them says I'm the perfect one I'll save your life and throw you a bone
I'll pretend like I care about you, after elected I’m afraid that you’re through
Each of them says I'm the perfect one I'll save your life and throw you a bone
I'll pretend like I care about you, after elected I’m afraid that you’re through
He tries to swallow the lies and goes out on a bender
feeling just a bit smaller than a man
From the hill they see he's bleeding
They just sell him more empty dreams
Even when he’s on his knees and screaming
Each of them says I'm the perfect one I'll save your life and throw you a bone
I'll pretend like I care about you, after elected I’m afraid that you’re through
Each of them says I'm the perfect one I'll save your life and throw you a bone
I'll pretend like I care about you, after elected I’m afraid that you’re through
better days coming your way, I'll change it and make it work for pay
No social security no medicare no pension plans no F.E.M.A.
No roads no inter infrastructure and I’m afraid it’s Days Of Plunder for you
no cries for the average man who always pays his lenders
now theres nothing left there in his hand
From the hill they see he's bleeding
They just sell him more empty dreams
Even when he’s on his knees and screaming
Each of them says I'm the perfect one I'll save your life and throw you a bone
I'll pretend like I care about you, after elected I’m afraid that you’re through

The Snake
This is one of my favorite songs from the album! Todd and I had originally considered removing it from the album, but after an impromptu session in the studio, we re-recorded it. From a sonic standpoint it all came together as well with the ambient and unique percussion, and haunting lyrics with multiple meanings.
