Desperate measures
vacant nine to five
gnawing hunger
struggle to survive
But this time
this time you've gone too far
this time
they'll show no mercy
Gleaming badges
polished like a gun
growing habit
quota filling up
This time
this time you've gone too far
This time
you can't obscure it
listened to him plead for his life
then left him in a pool of blood
This time
this time you've gone to far
this time
they'll show no mercy
hunted to a corner underground
five bullets in the back of your skull

Get up and go
don't say a word
you ain't never said nothin
worth being heard
And you rack up your quarrels
like kids learning dynasties
one to another then
another comes back to me
Feel me up
like we're walking down rehearsal street
eyes on the ground
like passersby on their feet
Get up and go
I told you so
Get up and go
slip away in the night
don't tell a soul
just turn our your lights
And you rattle your cage
like back when you were seventeen
wanderlust and
I wish you'd come back to me
Fill me up
like the first drop of chemistry
heart in my throat from
your heat and intensity
Get up and go
I told you so

Door slams
loud enough to rattle window panes
know what's coming
I recognize the fear and strangled rage
throw the latch and
hide out from the storm
your castle
I ain't gotta take this
I don't need the abuse
All the shouting and the pacing
and the bitterness of youth
No use in saying
words already been said
I got fifteen bucks it's warm enough to
Sleep outside again
Door slams
and offers no resistance to your arm
so I know what's coming
pull my backbone straight and set my jaw
now we're toe to toe again
never eye to eye
your castle
tonight I'm gonna leave it all
I ain't gotta take this
I don't need the abuse
All the shouting and the pacing
and the bitterness of youth
No use in saying
words already been said
I got fifteen bucks it's warm enough
Sleep outside again

Stop wait a minute
tell some lies with me
they ain't nothing new
but they're what I need
I always loved you
I always will
and when he calls
I will love you still
What are these sweet lies we tell each other
I can change said the carnivore
show gets old tips get stiffer
end of the night your lip still quivers
For me
Stop packing up
don't think we're young enough anymore
you never know
if this is the last time
so leave it in the either
cuz I'm still a believer
know he might steal ya
but not tonight
What are these sweet lies we tell each other
I can change said the carnivore
show gets old tips get stiffer
end of the night your lip still quivers

Blue Ruin Minneapolis, Minnesota
In early 2011, four kids from South Minneapolis formed a band. Drawing equal influence from their time in the trenches of the Twin Cities Punk scene and the dusty grooves of their favorite Soul and R&B records, Blue Ruin created a raw, guitar driven sound with an emphasis on the groove. ... more
