Weak 02:24
Everything is coming down Around My head My face My brain My world Nobody that knows my name Will blink when the body wills me Too weak To keep Around I can’t speak Everybody says too much and their words don’t keep and their minds are weak and they’ll break give time and they don’t know how their brains work And At least They’re not Alone Let me know you’re still alive in there So I Can fall asleep

Scum 03:36
Making up Im Making up everything It came last night In a dream Made me feel clean I’ve been trapped for 10 whole years No one ever comes No one ever stays I Stayed Please to meet you But I don’t know your name No one ever comes Cause no one wants to stay I am feeling Sick of talking piss No one ever cares Cause Things don’t stay the same Body is moving But I don’t know how long I know that I am scum I know that I am wrong

This 02:34
day is the day you get everything that you're worth with The blood from the pigeons, and the seagulls, and the worms On my face, on my body, on my spirit, on my shirt Everybody says they wanna but no one wants to hurt Last week it was summer and I was walking through the woods I saw a spider eat a beetle that was writhing in the mud I brushed my dirty hands off that were covered in blood I killed the spider and the beetle cause I thought I should i am bigger than man I am bigger than god I'm the only mother fucker in the world like that And If you think like that You can live like that You can walk like that You can talk like that Everyone under the sun is baking in the heat With the advice of their parents all falling down a ditch And I'm the ugly father of a son of a bitch With the mouth of a phantom I don't exist So watch this trick

Mass 03:06
My mastermind plan is a painting The darker the hues are the best I wake up and wait for an answer I wake up and wait for enough time to pass so I can call you again and it seems normal I wake up and wait for your cigarette breath to be bad on my health and take me back down to that week we first met and slow down for once In a year A year just as long as your thoughts were fast A year just as hard as the ground A year just as violent as god seems to be A year just as overstayed and unwelcome as I am

Nervs 02:35
Tripping Fumbling I don't want to be like this It's All the time I had Everything I don't wanna lose my spot To him We are Faded Feeling Frustrated Playing pranks Nerves Set in Come in Mumbling I don't think I'll be the same I bet Sparkling Shimmering I don't think she gives a shit I bet
7.
Pine 01:42
Running round Thinking of Things we could do I can spend the night If you want me to Climb the pine Waste my time there's nothing to prove And you play the game But the blood stays the same So what So what Two years past Swallowed glass You finally grew up And now you understand How real things are Eventually You will see There's nothing to solve And you'll come back down And feel so damn small So what So what Sleepless night Thinking of Another life where you Walked just like God And learned how to sin Vomit up Painful thoughts Every damn night And when the red leaves come in You'll think of him
8.
Sleevs 04:12
Watching you get opinions Watching you hang with idiots I shouldn't care this much But You look just like my mom when you get upset And I feel it in my chest This would all be better if you'd leave But I'm keeping you here And you don't even know Soft eyes big as a comet This shit is not what you promised Your dad when you were young But He can't make you feel what you feel when He pulls on your sleeve This would boil over if you'd leave But what's keeping you here Is my biggest fear And I'm floating in space And he's touching your face
9.
Ant 02:03
I cant remember where I even am But I feel like my feet are tied to the land Wanting to start over before it begins Nothing that happens will ever make sense They tell you to push on they tell you to try At something as complex as being alive Crushed like an ant I can feel it in my feet Crushed like an ant I forgot how to speak
10.
Gag 02:21
Look at you, you’ve grown at last And I’m guessing it’s all figured out? Walking round your old town I bet you’ll never guess that every thing you know’ll turn around Look at you, you’ve lost control The second your feet hit the ground Because you claim to know before your told Stubborn headed freak you should of never bought what you sold Pity lives Inside their souls Lucky miss Into the wind Turning in my ideal cause For something bigger than myself And no one is allowed to help Gonna rip this bandage off all by my fucking self Everything is starting to make sense And it’s making me feel so scared But I’ll pretend that I am unaware I’ll try again tomorrow and tell myself that today went just fine

Wiilt 02:18
This pig skinned pricks gonna feel things change A Big fat headache for another day Dry red leaves gonna stain the ground If you keep me numb then I’ll keep you around Stark long pause gonna clear the air Sick sad bicker gonna feel your stare Brown eyed fiend, I guess I’m living a dream Long time coming it doesn’t mean a thing Stock car racing in a pity parade Don’t hear me talk, hear what Im trying to say The dumb fucker times put your face in an ad Long time coming there’s no happy or sad I watched her from the ceiling like a fly on a wall I watched her spill her heart out, crumble, and fall I️ watched her claw his eyes out coming of age I watched her get her words out clumsy and fake Things are not the same
12.
Reeds 02:21
I looked them in the eye Said At least I have to try But I have something to say And I’m not gonna wait Cut the shit Im not alive I grew up on bad advice And I have twenty seconds left And I’m not gonna waste them I am legacy for the worms And once I’ve said my thing I will fill my mouth with reeds I will grow them till they breed I will plant the seeds I’ll have my plants to leave behind When I pack my bags for good Where Ill go I can’t decide But I’ll be where I should Everything you thought is hanging from a cliff and you don’t have to learn to walk to know how to fall
13.
Sun 02:11
The rain never came down The sun never showed We all looked like statues The bodies we had froze I cant believe you're real I can't believe you're here I want to see you smile Before you disappear
14.
Green 03:57
There were no bets left at the stadium The brokers up and left There were no more flowers at the funeral still It was a beautiful scene And when she’s caught looking into his stupid eyes I’ll be here freaking out I can’t sleep and it’s making me green inside At least it’s been a beautiful night Nobody wants a funeral Nobody wants a beautiful end Nobody wants your baggage claims Nobody wants to be green
