    The album Six Feet in the Ground by The Living Skins was originally released while the band still went by the name Artifice. However, the reboot is up for digital download while the physical CD's (still labeled as Artifice) reside here online as well as at shows. The CD features 15 tracks along with a small booklet filled with pictures as well as blurbs and contact information from the band. (Let's not forget the hidden acoustic track of the hit song Davy!) The Living Skins will even sign your copy of the CD for FREE if you so choose. The CD it self comes packed in shrink wrap unless you have the band sign the CD in which case the wrap will have to be removed. The sound of this album is unique in the sense that you can't quite call it punk, though it isn't quite rock. To light to be metal, but too fast to be grunge.

Descending 00:47

I’ve got this burning, in my chest, A victim of my, own arrest, Let it roll out, breath it in, We can free her from, her addiction, Let’s play like, and let’s pretend, Hide behind this, mask again, I don’t need you at all, Tore me apart brick by brick like a wall, Well I’ve moved on, when you need me I’ll be gone, I’ve got this burning, in my chest, I’m victim, of my own arrest, I let it roll out, I took deep breaths, Freed her from that, dirty dress, I played like, tried to pretend, I’ll never hide behind this mask again, If you don’t want me for me, Then it’s time for me to see, I’ve done, all I could, I’ve done, all I should.

Bring It Out 04:19
It’s been such a long time, since I have seen you, Where have you been, where have you gone to, Forever’s never been so distant Procrastination has never been so persistent, It’s been so long since you have been gone, And so I lie here, rotting and waiting Sitting here like a senseless feeling I can help you escape, Doesn’t matter how, Bent and spun out of shape, Why did you let it out, So I hear that they’re saying, Say that Jake isn’t playing, I would if I could, if my heart was forgiving, If I was never if I was ever, Maybe then you would be my natural pleasure, Now that you know me, Please just let me be, I see that you’re flinching, Is it something I mentioned, Let us run to where we can break the tension You left me bashing my brains, Without a doubt, You must think me insane, Why did you let out?
4.
Stay Away 01:59
I can’t stand the sight of you, You and all the things you do, I won’t sit and fill my head full of All the stupid shit you said so, Stay away, from me, And every word you say, You’re the poison in my veins, You’re the poison in my brains, You’re Poison Stay Away, Just Stay Away
5.
Roach 02:37
I don’t care about what you think or your problems, I don’t care about your feelings they’re just poems, Simply ask the master, for the key if you plead, Want to taste the sweat of a bet, you’ve got to bleed, You can’t trust me, you can’t love me, You can’t trust me, So get off me, Cooperate, to debate, kick the bucket, Beat your meat, to the beat, arms off of the socket, Feel my pulse, enough to repulse, even the brightest of eyes, Here’s the key, satisfy me, cyanide deep in her eyes, Every time I thought I had my way, Something still seems to get in the way, Every time I had no fucking idea, Why won’t you listen to me, And get off me

Davy 03:55
Well, Davy was a man, born pistol in his hand, Always spitting chew and hitting tin cans, that’s When he goes and walks into the bar, Buys another round for his fake friends, said, I’m so lonely you don’t even know, Put a gun to my head, pray to god it blows, just, Step away, there’s nothing here to see, Don’t got no one mourning for me, yeah, Mourning for me yeah, I hate myself Davy was a man, born pistol in his hand, Always saw him working, tending his land, and, One day, something just snapped, And the whole town saw him retaliate back, said, I hate my life and everything around, Why don’t you bury me six feet in the ground, just, Step away, there’s nothing here to see, Don’t got no one mourning for me, yeah, Mourning for me Well, Davy was a man, born pistol in his hand, Always spitting chew and hitting tin cans yeah, Killed the whole town population fifty, Wasn’t it nifty?

I can’t take these shakes, Always killing the vibe, Synthetic Membrane, Always speaking in jive, This system’s broken, And I think that it’s lame, I want a refund, But we’re all just feeling the same, Feeling the same, Feeling the same, Feeling the same, Now I’ve got jet lag, And I’m an hour behind, The bases are loaded, And she won’t spend a dime, The system’s broken, Is what she said to me, She wants a refund, It’s not that easy you see But we’re feeling the same, I can’t take these shakes, Always killing the vibe, Synthetic membrane, Always speaking in jive, This system’s broken, And I think that it’s lame, I want a refund, Because we’re feeling the same.

Unfurl 02:43
I’ve come, Undone. Too late, It’s gone. I know, I’m dumb. Go on, have fun. Please me, kill me. Waste me, pollute me. Swallowed my tongue, I’m scared of, everyone. The alarm beats my brains in, Sound as sharp as gelatin, I will wish me the best, I expect nothing less. Concealing, the sadness, Restricting the madness, It scrapes and it stabs, It’s picking at the scabs. Love it, or hate it, Destroy or save it, I’ve come, undone, And I know, I’m dumb. The alarm beats my brains in, Sound as sharp as gelatin, I will wish me the best, I expect nothing- Less

I’m broke, as shit, And I can’t, take a hit, I’m broke, as shit, And I can’t, take a hit from you, Take a hit from you Take a hit

Ran away scared to hide away, It was I recall it was the middle of the day, Then something strange emerged from the mountains, Something beautiful, bad ass, elegant and awesome, I have only seen these as children’s toys, I could not believe it they were Space Cowboys, Tiny little holsters and killer metal hats, Better watch your step, better watch your back, But something when wrong, the sky turned jet black, they fired back at us, we have to fight back, we have to fight back, SPACE COWBOYS, Saving the world with their rock n’ roll, Space Cowboys will eat your soul, Together we die, Lasers and blasters go ka-boom, invading our planet was a kinda dick move, Gunna kick them in the athletic cup, SPACE COWBOYS will FUCK YOU UP, Who could destroy such powerful beings, Just pick up your balls and don’t whine about your feelings, Prayed for some help and what was to come, Down from the heavens came Abraham Lincoln, Hand on my shoulder asked me what was wrong, Told him I’d be happy if the Space Cowboys were gone, Lincoln nods and understood then flew up in the skies, Fight till we hear the last Space Cowboys goodbyes, Me and Abe Lincoln, fight side by side, Into the mouth of war, on gallant steeds we ride, On gallant steeds we ride, SPACE COWBOYS, Saving the world with our rock n’ roll, Fat chance that they will ever take control, Together we die, Lasers and blasters go ka-boom, invading our planet was a kind of dick move, There’s no need to pout or moan, Me and Abe Lincoln will safely take you home, SPACE COWBOYS, 100% GLUTEN FREE, (Literal Ass) SPACE COWBOYS, Saving the world with our rock n’ roll, FAT FUCKING CHANCE THEY’LL EVER TAKE CONTROL, Me and Abe Lincoln into the horizon we ride, Riding our rockets far into space, Gunna save the whole human race, Gunna kick them in the athletic cup, Space Cowboys will FUCK YOU UP!!!

It’s left a trail behind every time, They all submit to us every time, It don’t take a beating with a stick, Tedious work does just the trick, Soon enough they’re old, they’re bold, Ready to take on the world, Perfect citizen ready to die, Does it bite, does it chew, Does it do what you want it do what you want it to do, Does it bleed, does it feed, Does it feel beaten battered and used, Tell me, are you abused, Look at this one he’s thinking for himself, Look at this one he’s thinking for himself, But it this is really nothing new, Give him ten doses of truth, Truth so diluted and muted, Controlled and polluted, Let’s see if that makes him feel better.
13.
Awake, you’ve taken all you could take The moon will melt right from the sky She laughed as she kissed the snake Solace will be by the sun so spread your wings and fly But like Icarus you were too ignorant The Sun was much too bright Daybreak, the sunlight pierced his eyes Leaned in for a kiss Stopped and curled her lips Her teeth showed through her cry Venom coursed through his veins Seeing colors through his plastic brains So dilated, so aggravated His mind could not feel the rain And she cried So much for the colored dreams She showed her face and her blackened seams Awake, you’ve taken all you could take The moon will melt from the sky She laughed as she kissed the snake And she cried…
