Pig Wings Lyrics - Man Eating Lion

Where rubber meets asphalt cracks 

Where the sand meets sky and our flags flap 

Where we swallow fire and the lightning claps 

The rumbling motors always bring us back 

High noon, we were already on the road 

Left our fear to the vultures and sold the devil our souls 

Chasing blotter with the bottle, burning bibles, cranking throttles, watching the day unfold 

Too good of a tale to go untold, but we don't all get old, you know 

First town in 40 miles, our leader signaled to stop, cause there were beers to drink, and caps to pop, 

I hung to the back so that I could keep watch 

The liquor-lotto didn't know what hit it until after it got knocked 

We bashed in the door and shot at the ceiling, 

The locals knew that we would be stealing, 

My buddy grabbed the clerk by the collar of his shirt and clocked him in the jaw, man you know it hurt 

So get your hands up high, reach for the sky 

If nobody's a hero, then nobody dies 

I copped the bag of loot 

And it was time to scoot, 

We made for the hills 

And on the lam to boot, 

By then, the doses really started kicking in 

Reality was shifted, my world began to spin 

Just like a wheel on my bike cutting through the wind 

A kaleidoscopic wonder, so we took it in 

Suddenly the pigs were right on our tail, just leave to the cops to turn a good trip stale 

We split up, veering off the trail, and I was really loosing grip on what was real 

The red and blue lights started fading away, the siren's wailing sounded like a distant arcade game 

I was shrouded in light, falling from above, I was floating in the sky like a holy dove 

In that moment I left the earth 

Don't know where I went, or what it's worth 

But when I came to, it was noon a month later 

And I was laying on the track of a hay elevator
