Purgatory 04:13
Here it comes--just a tragic story Of two men stuck in purgatory One was sad and one was sorry For the things they'd said and done that time I heard time healed all things Except scars left by angel wings When he arrived he heard the angels sing lies that everybody would be fine Chorus I wanna rub up on you till I get blisters But all you wanna do is play Twister But now I see that I'd be Mister Dean Castiel though I took your sister Once upon a time I might have wished for not a love but an endless score Of winning battles in this war I can't carry you, my heart's too sore Chorus Here it comes just a bad narration Of a love born from damnation Ended by our resignation Someone will always get left behind In purgatory damned with liars In hell stuck with Holy Fire In heaven while the angel choir Sings our sins in harmony and rhyme Chorus Here it comes--just a tragic story Of two men stuck in purgatory One was sad and one was sorry For the things they'd said and done that time All he'd asked is to be forgiven Happy to die, for your happy livin' My cause my life is driven by The fact that I can call you mine. ------------------------------------------------ Chorus He's suffered heaven and broken hell Fought with glory till he fell And even though you have to spell out L-O-V-E--it's a happy sort of sorrow and It's a word he can't deny But damn it all if he couldn't try To get it all back, not to die today--but maybe live tomorrow and L-O-V-E is blasphemy H-A-T-E purgatory G-I-V-E Dean back to me S-A-V-E Heaven's army

Bobby's Song 06:13
I once looked at the mirror and saw a broken man who let his wife and family down in every way one can So I smashed that mirror into angry silver, shattered stars, Then turned away and covered up my healing battle scars. I traveled long, I traveled far, and I have gone astray, no closet here is big enough to put my skeletons at bay, but suddenly, now presently, I walk the path I know, when two little boys with their big toys needed help and so then I said hey Bobby, lift your head, there's still a fight to win so buck up, idjit, put away that scotch on ice and gin, you've got two boys who need a hell of guidance out of you you're their rock now, it's time to grit down hard and power through so decades passed, I had at last two surrogated sons, who grew up to be heroes with a trunk filled up with guns, I ain't been any prouder of any men I'd known, than these two kids whom god forbids, and broken every bone, sometimes I sit down in my house and think of times gone by, of my mistakes, it pains and aches me 'til the day I die, but I found hallelujah in a family damned by hell, who steal my food, is goddamn rude, but they make my heart swell, [chorus] Hey, Bobby, are you up there? Times here are real hard. I'm stuck in purgatory and I've lost my guard. It's made me think of all the times you saved my ass, I never thanked you for that, I thought our time would last, Bobby, I'm so alone, and once again I'm scared, Everything went spiraling down and I was not prepared, I guess it's time for me to grow up and solve this, 'cause you're in heaven now, and I'm stuck in the abyss so hey, Bobby, thanks for all, the things you did for me, you're the best dad that I ever had, I was too blind to see, and show you all the gratitude you deserved in your life, you were the best, now get your rest, and go and join your wife (Family don't end with blood and you're all I am thinking of Sam, you know that we can pull it through I'll send my love and maybe curse a couple times, but it ain't the worst, and I know that in this hunter pack, that family always comes first) so I said hey Bobby, lift your head, you fought the fight and won so buck up, idjit, don't be sad, you finally are done you've got two boys who don't need any more guidance from you you'll meet someday, when they're old and grey, and you'll be friends anew. (Family don't end with blood and you're all I am thinking of Sam, you know that we can pull it through I'll send my love and maybe curse a couple times, but it ain't the worst, and I know that in this hunter pack, that family always comes first)

It's a glorious day for extermination reconquering and recalibration everybody knows the tale and lore tribesmen tremble where I shall trespass, their world shatters beneath them like glass, fuck all you humans, Lucifer is now at war each one of you is an abomination you festering scabs, you are irritations don't you know you're worthless and a chore, I used to fly in holy skies now you're the fucking apple of my father's eyes fuck all you humans, Lucifer is now at war I did my best to impress our creator to get labeled and then fabled as the traitor I fell down and so it's time to show that earth must go 'cause humans have reached a new low and so adieu, don't be so blue 'cause your hopes will die and then you will die, too it's a glorious day just to screw you over it's your lucky day, it's your four-leaf clover, 'cause you don't have to worry any more, I'm going to take out both Winchesters, the fallen fool, and the archangel jester, fuck all you humans, lucifer is now at war. I spent too much time down below, and now it's time for the holy hell show, here comes death knocking, one, two, three, and four, don't even bother to hope to survive, 'cause all tear you up and skin you alive, now fuck all you humans, Lucifer is now at war I'm in your head, full of dread, and such regret but now you're mine, and I'm thine, my dear moose pet, good morning vietnam! and so it's time to show that earth must go 'cause humans have reached a new low and so adieu, don't be so blue 'cause your hopes will die and then you will die, too

When Hell did open up it's mouth and black smoke rose from holy ground the Devil took off to the south and claimed the shadow of his crown. Three soldiers, much like mongrel dogs, refusing to be sacrificed to anybody else's cause turned mad-barking into that night. And they howl still - "Love declares war! Some things are yet worth fighting for." But brothers for so long, deceived are bound to hold uneasy faith. The Righteous Man did not believe - And nearly bowed to scripted fate. And they howl still - "Love declares war! Some things are yet worth fighting for."

I'd go back to a time when I was Happy that I finally belonged And where I wasn't guilty of no more crimes And I could tell you that I miss it but I know that you don't Like it when I'm gone for too long And you think the place where my head goes is wrong And I know that there's no place all the trauma Heals if I keep on running from the things We don't agree on Pack your bags and come with me brother Lay this life down, cut your ties and let's not look back We're running out of the time I need to be Not so sick of you We're running out of the ways I can be patient with a Ignorant and Shameful Hard-Headed Asshole Damn Fuckin' Know it All I can't live without 'Cause how could I be happy if I Know that you're not there I'd go back to the days when I felt Pure and so set in my ways A sense of normal settled into my Bones without the Salt and Burn to hinder me, I felt right at Home is leather seats on four wheels between the rat filled motels and diner meals I'll get the salad, and I'll get the shake And it would suck to have to break apart We can't do this Pack your bags and come with me brother Lay this life down, cut your ties and let's not look back Chorus There to help me up When the going gets rough When the monsters come to gank me back Back to how we were before We grew up in a black four-door Young and so bulletproof Together we could save the world We're running out of the time I need to be Not so sick of you We're running out of the ways I can be patient with a PTSD hot mess Devil-May-Care Thoughtless Murderer, where's Cas? I can't live without 'Cause how could I be happy if I Know that you're not there

Ben and Dean 03:47
Well hey there, Mr. Hunter, I hear that you lost your precious Cas. And I’ve got a solution for you and it’s gonna save your ass. You see, here in Purgatory, is where all of the monsters are set free, And although you’re a monster, too, god wants you out of here but he don’t want me. Well hey there Mr. Vampire, I do not give a damn what you say, Because until I find my angel, you ain’t gonna ever get your way. ‘Cause I know I’m your one-way ticket out of this god-forsaken place. But both of us ain’t leaving here until I find my man who lost his grace. He fell so far and I fell too, but Now I’m fucking up with you ‘cause our one goal is to get out of here. Sometimes I/(I see you sitting) sit here up at night just praying for my/(your) Cas to fight along with me/(you) again, but it’s in vain. Well hold up, Mr. Hunter, I don’t think you’re hearing me too clear ‘Cause here in purgatory, you can’t trust-a anything but fear. If we wait any longer, we’re gonna be torn so apart And to be blunt and honest, you and Cas were kind of fucked up from the start. Well shut up, Mr. Vampire, we’re doing this how I want to, ‘cause if you get in my way, I’ll use you up and then I’ll drop you. We’re gonna follow our one lead, now’s not the time to sit and shiver ‘Cause the only water in Purgatory is not a pond, but it’s the river, [Chorus] [break] You told me/(I told you) to just let him go, but It’s all or nothing, I/(you) won’t throw Away the angel chased by leviathans. But lo and behold, fate it cruel, ‘cause everything I/you said isn’t true he reached out for my/your hand but was left alone

[spoken]This is the story of a young man in Advanced Placement. But little did he know, he was in the most advanced place a man can be. You see, this young man is a prophet of the lord. His name is Kevin Tran, and this is his story.[/spoken] Once upon a time, his only trouble was getting A's in school, But he was struck by divine power and received the tools to read scripture and to save the human kind, and his life would never be the same again. Then came along the Winchesters and they tried to have him help, because he wielded the power to save the whole world, but Leviathans took him away and so he never thought he'd see his home again. [spoken]And that's when things got really bad. You see, Kevin was kidnapped and was forced to translate God's word to save his mom's life.[/spoken] And so, the demon Crowley took him, Thinking he had God trapped in his two hands but, Kevin Tran outsmarted him by faking to translate God's word He killed his captors and then he escaped his prison, [spoken] You go, Kevin Tran! AP don't stand for Advanced placement anymore, it stands for Ass-puncher. You don't need no Winchesters to survive. You ain't no cub no more, tiger. You a man now![/Spoken] He teamed with his mom in order to get the tablet back again, but the demon Crowley showed up and didn't play by the rules, thus his mom nearly lost her life fighting, and the two were never to be seen again.

My name is Adam And I am adamant About how my bros stabbed me in the back. But maybe some day I will leave this place, and go home where I belong. Here's a song for all the broken people my half brothers thought were disposable. They're killers and liars and hypocrites, They're just as bad as Lucy and Michael, so Raise your glass to these two screwing you over, and making your life an ephemeral mess. They destroy with a sense of saccharin alacrity They fight for free will but then tell you what's best, My name is Adam And I am adamant About how my bros stabbed me in the back. But maybe some day I will leave this place, and go home where I belong. Let me beat you with this broken and banal ballad. It wars and it wallows in my weakening chest, After centuries of incessant sanctimonious struggle, I'll one day rise up and throw them in the grave that they dug, I am Adam And I am adamant About how my bros stabbed me in the back. But maybe some day I will leave this place, and go home where I belong. A is for always forgotten D is damned eternally A alleviate my pain and M is maybe I'll be free and And that spells Adam, who's adamant to get back where he belongs. Baseball never meant so much to me Until my twelfth birthday and now I was so used to my family Just me and my momma and how The times have stayed the same I'd like to put my blame in you, Have you no goddamn shame in you For damning me to this You-Forsaken-Hell

It started with a broken message, Vociferous with good intention, Vacillating forever and a day, I think that this meeting will presage, My denial of holy invention, And leave all tradition in disarray. Let's try. Ooh, it's scary but let's try. Vitality was never paramount My grace wrapped me and kept me safe but I think that I'm falling more than ever before. I've been let down more than I can count Been eroded til I bruise ad chaffe But you're everything I like, now I want more. 'Cause everything you do makes me want you The way you smile before you say something funny makes me a child And I guess that it's best to get it off my chest And say everything that's true But I'm too shy to finally say I like you You're stoic and insufferable You're stubborn and rash and self-culpable You're everything that I was told to drop Though sometimes you're gamorable, I still think that you're adorable You've my companionship and friendship, so please don't stop. Let's try. Ooh, it's scary but let's try. 'Cause everything you do makes me want you The way you smile before you say something funny makes me a child And I guess that it's best to get it off my chest And say everything that's true But I'm too shy to finally say I like you
