[Verse 1]
C5
Driving down blistered severe
The rapacious maw of our despair
Black dog follows, strip club echoes
C5
The raven's shadow across the ghetto
[Verse 2]
C5
Up the hill in an unmarked grave
The mother of American darkness lays
Liberty or death to start the battle
D5
There's nonesuch place for human chattel
[Chorus]
C5
Hanging by a threat
Now you can choke on it
Hanging by a threat
So go and choke on it
This is a reckoning
You hear the ravens scream
Hanging by a threat
So go and choke on it
[Verse 3]
C5
Across the devil's own half acre
There's rusted gallows for an angel
The ghosts that built this city scream
C5
Of commerce and inhumanity
[Verse 4]
Cancer rides the freeway's edge
Falling statues and cigarettes
Bullets whip the screaming kettle
D5
As teargas cloaks the monumental
[Chorus]
C5
Hanging by a threat
Now you can choke on it
Hanging by a threat
So go and choke on it
This is a reckoning
You hear the ravens scream
Hanging by a threat
C5
So go and choke on it
[Verse 5]
C5
Chained beneath a parking lot
Savaged on the auction block
In antebellum geography
C5
Rage, horror, history
[Bridge]

[Chorus]
C5
Hanging by a threat
Now you can choke on it
Hanging by a threat
So go and choke on it
This is a reckoning
You hear the ravens scream
Hanging by a threat
So go and choke on it
[Outro]
C5
Nevermore
