Intro 00:24
2.
Every wish was a wash here My tone fell flat In monotonous discourse A page marked black Grey saints went over like lead balloons Paint me auspicious, I’m drunk with proof Little heaven in junction I know it’s mine Cerebral sever in false voice I escrow time Set aside another moment I won’t find Busy birds are making nests collecting scars Fissiparous flagrants faking at par The lines are divorced a subtle work of art Embrace mistakes, an error’s what I live for Mince meaning with malice Hate, hate, hate Capped over; capsized.
3.
Enemy 02:53
I’ve been glossing over everything I know Say goodbye to me, enemy Sets the point between my teeth to make me bleed It’s just the casualty What’s the point of these subtleties Sets the anger in my neck to make me heavy It’s just the absentee
4.
I’m unsteady again Not ready for this Your moods change quick as a whip I’m nothing at all Sign, sink, good Drift, draft, place Turse, time, break Reel, break, home
5.
Arrest 02:47
Patch this interaction for a meaningful arrest Until you finally regress Assigned to go Meaning well Resigned to go I felt a scar where I held too long I fell apart in letting go Foregone control Can you see me on the mountain tops I fell so grace spiraling down Hard hit this ground And can I swim through the seas of faces I never knew a single one Emaciated through your power lunch.
6.
Belafonte 03:19
I’m just a cog For you to borrow Move along Until I fall off I’ll stick around On some shoes I found Lift me up when you step So I’ll get crushed Time and time again Or maybe I’ll shake it off So you’re feeling down I come around again Put me in place Till your pain will play Or maybe I’ll shake it off I’m just a cog I’ve been discarded Played my part Now it’s time to move on.
7.
Robot Boy 02:25
Can you repeat what you said Don’t think I heard what you meant I was lost in my head Filled with damage Electric spirals that make me up These crossed wires Short circuits and my broken parts Your wish sounds like my command And it brings me back to where I live And I’ll be better someday I’ll try harder this time To keep my screws intact Can you defeat my purpose Throw me down, hit my switch I’m the smoke from your vent Bubbled plastic Remote controls and dead batteries Lost pieces filtered out through second hand Patch me up as best as your can So I can play again
8.
Bitter 02:55
I suck you in through my lips So I can taste your simple bitter Moments at a time I catch the little lies You say off to the side We’ll pretend I’m obligated Gets you so frustrated With me So I shut you out Shut up Can’t push you far away enough To keep these pieces whole I’d like to steal back what you stole I’d like to make myself unknown Put my hand to my chest Suppress these fits of anger Suffocate the urge to break the place you center In my throat, in my stomach I feel the turn coming maybe Force an ending to the script I hate the mess you made of it A lackluster fit With no type of wonder If I exist then I exist for this To regress.

Pariah 01:59
Drown in an ocean of familiar tastes Placid poisons take me over quick I said I’m not your conversant I’m just the pariah to your social writ Swim me to safety from these anxious frames Sight and silence slip into my hands Sleep and send my best regrets Hide in my head till you walk right past
11.
Euphemisms 02:33
Guess I’m sleeping now I’m falling forward to the floor I sound sincere when I speak Pause and breath These little euphemisms That you bring me to keep Bright and safe Hollow space between the words Amidst the forced and the unheard In the iceberg and the place that you can’t reach Guess I’m sleeping now I’m drifting in and out of Thoughts that keep you from me
12.
Adore 03:36
In this brief reprieve of a broken window I shut myself into this blind To shake and seize in this seething silence I set my palms against my eyes Breathe, break, stop You know I love you All the time We lay near to sleep in this fever dream Sharing secret scars that cut to deep Perform our equal exorcisms As you breathe out my lungs release Touch, feel, stay You know you’re beautiful All the time As I fall apart You make me again Yes I adore you All the time.
13.
Lit 02:22
In breaking Your lungs can't make it last You breathe a million pieces of it now Escaping In shy subservient style You sneak away a cough trapped in your chest It’s sickening The way you fake a laugh You creep into you’re the -citis here at last Count the spackling on the ceiling Because you can’t just do the math In summation it’s just worthless Add the pain divide the path
14.
Routine 03:55
Outside of this Do you really exist Can’t find the point for the point you’re making Outside of this do you really exist Do you really exist? Outside of this Does it make any sense Can you even justify your Stings Your jabs Your abjectification Suffer hands Suffer words Suffer thoughts Suffer fists You suffer Anesthetized you will Sleep walk through what you say I wish you’d think I wish you’d feel Because we all know that you You fall apart
