What Do I Know?
03:29
|
|||
|
I don’t think that I’m alone in
Thinking that we got it all wrong
From religion to the government
There’s just something that is oh so wrong with it
But what do I know?
I know that nothing’s perfect
But we’re not even close
We’re more than capable
But choose to live morose
We clamor over each other
Fighting for drips and scraps
Propping up infrastructure
Destined to collapse
I know that I’m not the only one who
Got dealt the hand of life and felt t-t-totally screwed
Tried to make my own rules ended up accosted
Not sure if my mind or my body’s more exhausted
But what do I know?
I know the world is ugly
I know that life, it sucks
But it’s really time to change the tide
And start to give a fuck
I know we can’t yet see it
‘Cuz nothing’s ever right
But we could take the whole world back
And bring it back to life
Violence is our first reaction
Hatred is our loudest sound
But if the world’s just that close-minded
I don’t want to hang around

I Feel Sick
02:19
|
|||
|
I feel sick of the notion of a vague domestication
Crashing and burning is my only occupation
I got a problem and I’m getting fucking sick of it
Probably shouldn’t put a pair of horns on a monument
Dead and devoted to a deadly deportation
And now we’re forced in a foreign registration
I can’t stop my heart from bleeding
I can’t stop my brain from screaming
We can’t afford the gasoline
To strike a match and light a flame to this town
I know your motives are serpentine
To drive this operation into the ground
And even though we were in the clear
I still won’t regret another year on you
Tricked into trouble when we never hurt anyone
We’re on the double and they fucked over everyone
Flat and flustered they discovered
People play with heart strings rusted
Deal with disaster to be left exploited
Angry, annoyed but you’re still anointed
We refuse to say we’re sorry
Leave this place in a world of worry

Authentic
03:11
|
|||
|
Where do we even start?
In this flesh, or in this heart?
But I know it gets lost
Along the way, at any cost
We all find something else
A role to fill, a call to help
Yet we forget we’re not alone
Mean every word, they echo
Everybody thinks that they know what precisely they should do
But I just can not relate as that is something that I never knew
Don’t you fake it
We need authenticity
Just embrace it
This pure reality
Now stop giving bad advice
Regardless of ‘being nice’
Understand, then be understood
Don’t give two cents if it makes no sense
Everybody thinks that they know what the fuck is right for you
But their advice don’t mean shit when waking up is hard enough to do

Milquetoast
03:10
|
|||
|
How am I classified?
By what I’ve done, the awards to be won
Am I still valid with none?
Where do I lie? Who even am I?
Why even try? Who even am I?
More than just shy. Who even am I?
I can’t defy, who even am I…
To say that I never fit in with the rest of them
Amalgamation of every situation
Wandering endlessly through this quandary
Seeking permission for uncertain prescription
Hypocrite. Won’t commit
Dissatisfied. Tears vacant from my eyes.
Boredom over pain and demise
Why is it hard? Why is it so hard?
Why is it hard? Why is it so hard?
Why is it hard? Why is it so hard?
Why is it hard? Why is it so damn…
Hard to admit I still feel like shit and
I can’t seem to quite ever just get over it
Each passing day a reminder to say
That every flaw you hold is here to stay
I hate myself from face to feet
I guilt myself and yet claim deceit
Exhausted yet I have gone nowhere
Inadequate and I am fully aware
I’m doing everything that I can
Still not quite sure if I’m yet a man
In searching for what makes me so strange
I finally found out I don’t ever want to change
When will it end? When will it ever?
When will it end? When will it ever?
When will it end? When will it ever?
When will it end? When will it ever end?

I Won't Wait Around
03:06
|
|||
|
I’ve tried my best to save you
But you won’t save yourself
So when you’re sad and lonely
Don’t come asking for help
‘Cuz I won’t wait around anymore
I won’t wait around anymore
I think you know what it’s come to
You know yourself it’s nothing new
I will be there you know it’s true
But you’ve gotta take care of yourself too
And if they ask if we’re friends
I’ll say I guess that depends
And if they ask if we’re foes
I’ll say I’ll see you at shows
And if they ask if we’re friends
I’ll say I guess that depends
Was it a forgone conclusion?
Or just a means to an end?
And if they ask if we’re foes
I’ll say I’ll see you at shows
And when our eyes meet we’ll nod
Like there’s something the world just doesn’t know
I gave you all I could
And still spare some for me
But if that’s not enough then
I’ll have to set you free
‘Cuz I won’t wait around anymore
I won’t wait around anymore

Hopeless
02:03
|
|||
|
I’ve tried, tried, tried again & again
But nothing ever seems to happen
Stops before it even begins
I know how this always ends
Why waste time feeling lonely
No such thing as a ‘one-and-only’
Love is so damn forced and phony
Everyone sucks but no one blows me
I’m done, done, done, done with this chase
I’m pretty sure that I know my place
Another disappointing day
But I’m starting not to care anyway

Collision Course
03:37
|
|||
|
Do you remember it was the end of December
You were sad I was despondent
We traded secret messages on each other’s arms
Like we were kids at the hight of our glory days
You touch my stomach in that most peculiar way
And that moment had me reeling for too many god damn days
I realized that next morning I’d never be the same again
You and I collide like a fatal fated family of five
And some drunken idiot on the other side
Who still makes it out alive
You and I could rip a hole into time and space
Find a planet where we promise to change our ways
But that planet it won’t ever exist
So excuse me if I wanna feel real sad about it
It’s so peculiar how this memory simmers
Was the time we spent wasted
Or simply developmental for both of us
Will we ever be sane again?
You ravaged love in a quite uncanny way
But I won’t let it dictate my mood for one more lonely day
I’ve decided my next mourning will be reserved for someone worthy
You and I, we collide
Yeah you and I, we collide

Tough Stuff
03:20
|
|||
|
A hundred and fifteen billion fucking bucks
To supply those fragile piggies with a crutch
These bullies have run out of justifications
So now they must make up more harsher infractions
You’re so tough, aren’t you now
Such tough stuff, you disavow
I wish it was truly just a few of you
But your massive army is rotten through & through
A brave man would never lie and cheat like you
A real man would never back the fucking blue

Don't Give
03:14
|
|||
|
Don’t give a damn in what they’re sayin’
It’s outdated and overrated
Don’t give way to all they say ‘cause
It was never better in their day
They will always try to make you feel shitty
Because all their own lives are so fucking empty
But we won’t sink that low and give up at 20
It’s all up to us now and our morality
They will always try to make you feel guilty
For living your own life and simply existing
They won’t budge an inch and won’t be coerced
It’s ignorant at best or malicious at worst
Don’t give your time for any old dime
When it is draining away your prime
Don’t give into every tradition
Treat every thought with some suspicion

A Broke & High Man
03:17
|
|||
|
No amount of soul searching
Could save me from this life sentence
Assigned to this body
That is at ends with my mind
I am kind, I am cruel
I am smart, yet a fool
Ignorance is so safe
But is it worth being fake?
What if I don’t deserve
What my heart desires
Expectations equal to those
More capable than I will ever be
I will not feel guilty for the things I haven’t done
Just worry ‘bout yourself and not
The ways that I have fun
Am I fake as the fuckers I hate?
You do not get to dictate
The ways in which I am
I’m closing on a decade now
Of a broke and high man
Am I fake as the fuckers I hate?

Danger!
02:27
|
|||
|
Fuck everything
Look at the conditions that surround us
This was bound to happen
A global market train derailed and speeding
Off the tracks it finally attacks
“It’s all a myth they want to control me”
Just get a grip, it’s not all about you
400 sick and that’s every day
No end in sight an invisible fight
Preventable
But we’ve fucked it all up
Exposing our flaws, one by one
Breaking down laws, one by one
Destroying our cause, one by one
Killing us all, one by one
How could we have seen this coming
Oh well wait we fucking did
Mismanaged right into hell
Nothing left to do but end it all
What the fuck is wrong with us
Can’t we ever stop fucking it up

It Kills
02:44
|
|||
|
Everyone I know has vices
Some are just bigger surprises
Who’s to say that your addiction’s
Any worse than their afflictions
But I know you’re on to something
Can’t pretend like you know nothing
Can’t deny the problem’s clear
When every single day you hear...
It kills me to watch as you
Destroy the most cool
Person I ever have met
You quit and you don’t care
It seems so unfair
Your life can’t be something you bet
I myself have spent to long
Trying to fix up all that’s wrong
Inside my head you know
Exactly how this story goes
Tried to fix all my frustrations
With some self medication
It’s a small line that’s been missed
and that’s because it’s been sniffed
How will you feel when you’re so fucking high
And everyone goes away?
How will you feel now, how do you feel now
As it all fades away?
It’s consuming me and controlling me
It’s consuming me and controlling me

Reptilian Shapeshifters
02:40
|
|||
|
(Turn off the) T.V. says that everything’s alright
Just stay tuned into the station and don’t look outside at night
But you can’t deny their secrets and their lies
Are your interests in their mind? Are they monsters in disguise?
Ignore the face of your enemy
While you check out this endorsement from an over-hyped celebrity
Are you in love with conspiracy?
Or do you simply see the things that others will refuse to see?
Low and behold another faceless name is killed in action
Low and behold another war in the name of peace
Another drop of love to quench their thirst of death and mass destruction
Another shot of rum and I can put my mind at ease
Our leader says that everything is fine
Just put trust into the system and don’t step outside the lines
But you can’t deny the hunger in his eyes
For a plot to terrorize or a drug to hypnotize
Are you the subject of phenomenon
Does your paranoia brain ramble on and on?
Do you believe in a paragon?
Or do you simply feel that what you think is real might just be wrong
Low and behold another faceless name is killed in action
Low and behold another war
On pins and needles every day
My worried thoughts are such a drain
I think we’re going insane (I think we’re losing our minds)
I think we’re going insane (I think we’re losing our brains)
I think we’re going insane (I think we’re losing our heads)
Our thoughts run sentimental, I think we’re going mental
I think we’re going insane

Madhouse
04:04
|
|||
|
Went from bad, to worse, to terrible
I don’t need much but this shit ain’t bearable
Got these angry dumb fucks running the show
No questions please ‘cuz that’s just how it goes
If you want to change the rules go right ahead
You can’t fight the fight if you’re fucking dead
Oh geez I’m sorry I don’t mean to yell
Would my stone cold silence save me from hell
Could you please show me how I should live
So I can pass this sickness down to my kids
Just as dumb as the parents who are anti-vax
So stuck in your views that you’re anti-facts
Are we seriously going to hold on to the notion that
a man-made money is gonna determine who lives and dies
Money is pure evil, it eclipses all
Abstract survival is here to kill us all
It’s not fucking radical to want everyone to have food, shelter and water
Don’t even pretend we don’t have the resources for everyone
Stop acting like there is nothing we can do
We could care for all yet simply choose not to
This machine carries on
Beyond our control
And yet when it fails
We’re responsible
I’m not trying to step on any toes here. I’m just trying to say my piece
But that’s too much huh? Can’t have any challenging opposition
I about have had it, I am not alone
I know that you need me more than I need you
I’m just saying take a look around. People are unhappy with almost every facet of society
And if that doesn’t scream overhaul, I don’t know what else does
Do just what you say, say just what you do
You can talk the talk, but walk the fucking walk
And if I don’t survive
This madhouse where I reside
I want to be remembered
As one of the less absurd

Easier Said Than Done
04:38
|
|||
|
The artist paints a perfect picture
Of the supernal night skies
Memories fade and they flicker
They’re yearning for their cries
Anxiety is the constrictor that bounds, and pulls and ties
You try to be openhearted but this mind needs restarted
No place to escape your soul begins to reshape
How can you really love yourself
When your heart is flooded with lies
And your brain is just like a bookshelf
Vulnerable to prying eyes
This fear of any form of slander
It will bound, pull, and tie
Dreaming of a world where we are simply pure
No room for synthetic snakes to lie, cheat, and hate
Dreaming of a land where we are more than sure
Battles are won with our words, not ignorance in a herd
It’s always easier said than done (I’m so numb)
It’s always easier said than done (I’m so dumb)
...I’m so done...
