Name: Heartkiller
Duration: P00H03M00S
Description: This was the last song to be recorded for this album, done in January of 2011. I was in a horribly dark place in my life and needed to distract myself with something fun, and this was the result. It's kind of a Sublime-ish track that I lyrically channeled a con man for - somebody who wants to steal your valuables, and if they're already that far might as well break your heart too.

This was the last song to be recorded for this album, done in January of 2011. I was in a horribly dark place in my life and needed to distract myself with something fun, and this was the result.

lyrics

Expecting definition from the albino express
These anorexic monkeys I find do not impress
Leaving me so empty like I'm hurting for a fix
Burning deep into my soul it's cutting to the quick
There ain't no rest for the wicked and money don't grow on trees
But evil isn't here girl so all you got is me

Bring your worries, watch and wallet, I will take all three
Kill your time and take your money should provide relief
Hey don't say I didn't warn you in life don't pick and choose
But go ahead and bring your heart girl I will kill that too

Am I too close for comfort? Am I pushing your bounds?
Am I simply overwhelming you with all of these sounds?
Let your paranoia drop you into the river Styx
Sink or swim it's all in traction if you hit or miss
Fake another smile baby, pretend that you're in love
Lying is your strong suit girl, it fits you like a glove

Bring your worries, watch and wallet, I will take all three
Kill your time and take your money should provide relief
Hey don't say I didn't warn you in life don't pick and choose
But go ahead and bring your heart girl I will kill that too
