Flood 03:33
I think I have answers, The world is a cancer. Our blasphemous mantras, All bullets in blood. The sickness, the triggers, We hope idol figures Will carry the buried Souls up above. Made out of carbon, Stored in compartments. We’re too bored to function All baked in the mud. With no one to save us, I hope we can face us. We turned on the world And now we wait for the flood. The toxins, the plastic The water is acid. An ocean of madness, Your homes will all float. Can you vote for a savour? Owe Noah a favour? Think man is much greater? We’re the butt of a joke. So we line up in shame while we pray for ourselves, We say that we care but we’re happy in hell. I think we all know that we’re all gonna drown. We’re all gonna drown. We’re all gonna.

I am disease, A violent dream. A prophet in a pulpit where the truth can bleed. I wanna scream Make you believe. Shake you to the core of your entire being. You choke me up, And cut me down. Now my tongue is racing faster than the speed of sound. You choke me up, And cut me down. Now my tongue is racing faster than the speed of sound. Than the speed of sound. White blood cells running, Running, Running, Running through my veins. (x2) Are you afraid? Are you ashamed? I feel your pain it’s rushing through collapsing veins. Malignant brain, So cold and fake, A diagnosis coming that you can’t explain. White blood cells running, Running, Running, Running through my veins. (x3) You choke me up, And cut me down. Now my tongue is racing faster than the speed of sound. You choke me up, And cut me down. Now my tongue is racing faster than the speed of sound. Than the speed of sound. White blood cells running, Running, Running, Running through my veins. (x4)

Rowen 03:43
I think I lost myself in the crowd, In the sea. In the quiet faces that sing for me. Yeah I’ve closed my eyes, And cut the carob trees. Felt the sun exhale, On my shattered being. And I think I felt it coming, I felt it coming. Well I can’t find better words to say, A different life but it feels the same. My daughter cries every time I leave home. Am I a circus clown? Am I a drunken thief? I feed my shadow self, I live in every seed. I still speak in tongues, But I never read. I feel god still pushing my weathered feet. And I think I felt it coming, I felt it coming. Well I can’t find better words to say, A different life but it feels the same. My daughter cries every time I leave home. I think I’m dying every single day. I see my dreams and now I’m afraid. My daughter cries every time I leave home. Think I felt it coming I, I felt it coming. (I feel it coming). Well I can’t find better words to say, A different life but it feels the same. My daughter cries every time I leave home. I think I’m dying every single day. I see my dreams and now I’m afraid. My daughter cries every time I leave home. (Think I felt it coming I, I felt it coming).

Pride 03:36
No today I don’t wanna grow up. I see the fault in every line, The poison’s creeping up my spine. Yeah today I just wanna throw up. ‘Cuz every word’s a waste of time, I see my worth inside your eyes. I thought the stars would all align, I figured I would be alright But I’m afraid of this. The fakes, the fame the godlessness. You’re riding alone With nowhere to go. No lines on the road, Is it worth that feeling? You’re riding alone, With nowhere to go. Is it worth that feeling? Well today was kind of fucked up. I guess I’m meant to feel this way, Is there a problem with my brain? Yeah today they were all stuck up. I’ve heard that fortune is a race, They’ll cut your throat for second place. I guess we’re all just misaligned, I guess they’re all afraid of time Is meant to burn away. They speak of god but stain the page. But who would want a perfect life? With nothing wrong, but nothing right? With nothing right? You’re riding alone With nowhere to go. No lines on the road, Is it worth that feeling? You’re riding alone, With nowhere to go. Is it worth that feeling? ———————————————— You’re riding alone With nowhere to go. No lines on the road, Is it worth that feeling? You’re riding alone With nowhere to go. No lines on the road, Is it worth that feeling? You want truth for your bones? Money can’t make a home. You’re scared and you know. Yeah I know you feel it. You’re riding alone With nowhere to go. Is it worth that feeling?

Synaptic 03:03
Here’s the truth, yeah I know that I’m made up. A synaptic response from the kick off. Trying to see what the fuck I am made of. What’s my worth when the world is so worthless? Being a fake seems to be the whole purpose. Are you blind because mirrors make you nervous? I think it’s time we talked this out, ‘Cuz I won’t be young forever So tell me can you hear me now? Or do we live to walk away? Can I still love myself? When I’m the problem for everyone else? (x2) Drowning all of my hurt in my vices, 26 and I’m dying to feel it, Walk alone with myself in my crisis. I think god might be dead on arrival, Probably hates what he built ‘cuz it’s evil. I’m a church and my pride is the steeple. I think it’s time we talked this out. ‘Cuz I won’t be young forever So tell me can you heal my hell? Or should I smile and burn away? Can I still love myself? When I’m the problem for everyone else? (x2) Can I push you away? Need more pills for my brain. I’m still living in a golden daze, A golden daze. Is there truth in my pain? Seems I’m going insane. I’m still living in a golden daze, A golden daze (x2). What’s my worth when the world is so worthless? Being a fake seems to be the whole purpose. Are you blind because mirrors make you nervous?

Awake. I’m burning with my mistakes. Be afraid. I’ll use you until I break. I said I’m sick of all this meaning, I’m twisted and I’m reeling, I find it hard to let things go. Apathetic, screaming Opulent and dreamy. Kill me while you hold me close. Tell me little lies. I need your love, I need you now. Look me in the eyes. I know your weight, I feel your clout. I will paint your fear, With every colour of my mind, see I’m not the man I thought I was before. Disdain, There are creatures inside my brain. I think I’m lame. My plans all went up in flames. Synchronized and sinking, From middle, end, beginning. I’m hung until I’m wrung out, dry. Dumb from all the drinking, The darkness keeps on creeping, I hope that you can save my life. Tell me little lies. I need your love, I need you now. Look me in the eyes. I know your weight, I feel your clout. I will paint your fear, With every colour of my mind, see I’m not the man I thought I was before. I pull until I’m torn. I pull until I’m.

Hole 03:51
A king without a crown A castle on a mound Yeah send me down the river to your truth. I’ll beg until I bleed To wash my sins and free Myself from all the things I did to you. I know that all of you are burning, Along with all the trees. I know that all of you can hear me, I never say what I don’t mean. Barely conscious, Barely breathing, Maybe I’m the one who’s sinking? Barely conscious, Barely breathing, Maybe I’m the one who’s sinking? Into my hole. We live inside our brains A dangerous game to play Counting all the hearts we knew we’d lose. I’ll cover up the sky To watch the birds all die Make sure to eat the Earth’s now rotting fruit. I know that all of you are burning, Along with all the trees. I know that all of you are burning. Barely conscious, Barely breathing, Maybe I’m the one who’s sinking?(x2) When I’m broken, I deserve it, I’m a wreck inside the moment. Barely conscious, Barely breathing, Maybe I’m the one who’s sinking? Into my hole. I’ve died a thousand times, my shadow stays in sight. He took my sisters heart, and cut the cords of life. Now my mother cries and she blames herself, Wondering what she did to create this hell. (x2) She did? She didn’t make this hell. When I’m broken, I deserve it, I’m a wreck inside the moment. Barely conscious, Barely breathing, Maybe I’m the one who’s sinking? (x2) Into my hole. (x4)

Crutch 03:39
Come and plant some daisies, I’ll push up all the seeds. It seems that everything I do I regret Will my friends still bury me? I guess I’m trying to be different. When we all die the same. I figure I need a crutch that I can blame Never goes away. (x2) We’re mixed and honed projections, Reflections we emulate. I feel like all of the words I try to sing Just sound contrived and lame. I guess I’m trying to be different. When we all die the same. I figure I need a crutch that I can blame. Am I meant to dissipate? Should I bend before I break? Am I looking for an empty truth that never goes away? Do we suffer all the same? Do you think I’m fucking fake? Are you looking for an empty truth that never goes away? (x2) I guess I’m trying to be different. When we all die the same. I figure I need a crutch that I can blame. I’m just so tired of forgiveness. I’d rather fan every flame. I figure I need a crutch that I can blame Never goes away. (x4)

Truth, Yeah I don’t want to be here. But there’s you, You seem to live inside my atmosphere. We might fall, we might break We don’t give what we take. We just answer with questions And make mistakes. Are you pure? Are you marked? Do you know who you are? Do you know who you are? (Do you know who you are now?) I hope that you can see The better sides of me. Am I your make believe? Are you my everything? Strange, We seem to live inside a cycle. I’m drained, Can feel us spinning round in circles. We grow old, we find hate We don’t fix what we break. We’re malevolent, seething Is it too late? Are you pure? Am I marked? Do we know who we are? Do we know who we are now? I hope that you can see The better sides of me. Am I your make believe? Are you my everything? (x2) (A sense of meaning is an orienting reflex). I hope that you can see the better sides of me. Am I your everything? Are you my make believe? (x2) (Sometimes I feel like dust on your shelf, Everyday I live my life underground, I think that I can hear what I can’t see, Do you believe in me? Do you believe in me?) (x2)

Mind 03:06
We lay here In the morning. I breathe you in, And I haven’t had enough. We stay here, Hide away. I kiss, your face I still haven’t had enough. ‘Cuz I would spend every night of My life, looking in your dark eyes. It would not, be enough time to love you. If you don’t mind, could we spend A little more time? So I can rest my head On your chest, if you don’t mind? I took the afternoon Wrote a song, for you. And I know It is not enough. We took, all night And bathed in starlight. I still haven’t had enough. ‘Cuz I would spend every night of My life, looking in your dark eyes. It would not, be enough time to love you. And If you don’t mind, could we spend A little more time? So I can rest my head On your chest, if you don’t mind? If the clocks would just stop ticking, And if the world would just stop spinning, We could build a life and make it home. ‘Cuz I would spend every night of My life, looking in your dark eyes. It would not, be enough time to love you. And If you don’t mind, could we spend A little more time? ‘Cuz I found god in your eyes If you don’t mind.

Youth 04:02
Clouded by colour, abandoned in truth. It seems that I like to fall back into you. A memory of better days, a moment in bloom. So fragile broken, magnificent youth. No I won’t back down from you. We were never meant to lose. Protective and stubborn, the warmth of a crowd. Days without you are days living in hell. I hear your voice in everything, a blanket of sound. The fire in you could burn whole cities down. I can feel you in the ground. I can see you in the clouds. Clouded by colour, abandoned in truth. It seems that I like to fall back into you.
