about

Over lunch, the guys decide to work on Silver Buckle, a track about superstition and holding onto either religion or a gris gris during the darkest hours of despair.

“The chorus in Silver Buckle goes like this: ‘The devil may care, but at least someone does/ rub my silver buckle for good luck/ just because,’” recited drummer Dustin Ray.
- Sarah Brewer (Okie Magazine)

lyrics

Curious peace about irregular revolution

Denial closes peculiar institution

Ain't got no house to call my homestead

Suffering soldiers bleed out their greenbacks

No kind of comfort but gin and ex lax

Don't have no soul to help and breed me

Though the devil may care, at least someone does

I'll rub my silver buckle for good luck just because

Sit at the feast with friends fellow wastrels

The good at heart ain't good enough in fables

Can't find no drugs to stop my heartbeat

We are the hollow men stuffed with straw, alas

Behind the tears, greed, lust, its all past

Don't need those gods to make me humble
