No Rest

No rest for the wicked...the torn and the twisted The devils enlisted Shots to my soul but they missed it No rest for gangster goons and ghouls fiends and fools Chopping up lines and lighting up spoons No rest for the angry and addicted the condemned and convicted No end to that neverending supernatural sentence No rest for mortals and monsters Bad men and beasts...digesting power and defecating on peace No rest on sin streets paved with fools gold...1000 miles an hour down dead end drives straight into bloody brick walls Rise and fall to run and flip...dropped like a dime in a bottomless pit Far beyond or far behind...No rest for lost losers at the end of the line
