Fun's Over 01:52
In pursuit of vine ripe fruit new ideas summer pavement hot Chasing moments and hoping they invoke hits hope is all you’ve got Stale love sad art sold for parts ankle traps and leg caught Blanket statements from dying patients coughing blood all over your house There’s so few Reasons to Prostrate yourself at the feet of all these fools In pursuit of vine ripe fruit new ideas summer pavement hot Chasing moments and hoping they invoke hits hope is all you’ve got Buying low selling vacant lots vacant stares and occupied plots Tired slogans from tired showmen vomit on your best blouse

A dull life Inviting no jail time Nights spent inside Gifted with endless foresight To clarify: The dirt under your nails The proof that you’ve been here Let’s add up your wrongs A rabid mob to audit who you are Skull’s on fire Praying for insight Missing your veins Until you’re found by the police lights To clarify: Dirt under your nails The proof that you’ve been here Let’s add up your wrongs A rabid mob to audit who you are You’ve got choices Suffer with interests Or float along with no consequence Wish I could help But I don’t know myself Dirt under your nails The proof that you’ve been here You feed your passions Or follow them all as they die in the sun

Plucked 02:44
Things people pretend to like They ingest invest aggress for A party that partly hopes they die Take a beating with your robbing Kicked to the teeth on live TV Trust this statement: There’s no trusting states, man I don’t put faith in Any crooked strangers plans or hands Essence sucked out the bottom While your man stays standing by Behave bad and act rotten Teach a dog to chew his tail Behave like you’re owed something Trust this statement There’s no trusting states, man I don’t put faith in Any crooked strangers plans or hands I learned young there’s no I in people anything that’s bigger than a band Is suspect and can’t be relied on No matter how you hard you find yourself trying There’s a hole that’s always leaking In the shape of your fellow man The missing piece is Anything but misplaced grievance Lots of talk maybe lost in talk anything that works is in pieces

These things I read about the way the world works I lift the spoon to socket and dig my eyes out These things I hear about the way the world works I bring the knife to ear and slice myself clear News flash I need news less Those things I learned about the way the world works I take roller to my thoughts and beat the knots out Those things I do about the way the world works wonder will it amount to anything at all? News flash I need news less

Architect and mason build a square you’re the one who assigns it meaning You live in that space you give it joy anger hope or despair If I do a double murder what this song did for you doesn’t change an iota One man per crucifix form a line your turn is coming just give it time We don’t toss away what we love. Well, maybe some of us But I’m not part of that cover up I won’t toss away what I love. I don’t care who’s involved I’m not part of that cover up Bricklayers do their part and they exit What happens next is none of their business Christmas dinner family battles Who’s on drugs and who’s pregnant If we disappoint each other somehow It’s ok we don’t share the same house There’s only one side of the street You’re responsible for And that’s yours We don’t toss away what we love I won’t toss away what I love We don’t toss away what we love We don’t toss away what we love Well, maybe some of us But I’m not part of that cover up I won’t toss away what I love I won’t toss away what I love I want to forget you asked You don’t need to justify Any and all reasons why No one elected you to judge Truth is you’re buried all by yourself

Tiresome 03:05
When you’re full sad sack Listening to Mush on a city bus You let those tears eat your brain “Poor me” is your refrain When you’re off on one Whispering pity into your shirt You celebrate being weak And keep excuses right in reach Here’s what I learned living under my rock Here’s what I found when I finally looked There’s nothing there but air A void where ambition ain’t A damp seat of bad thoughts A rotted body you came across When you’re sitting on your back Staring at a stained dropped ceiling Better served to burn that bed Than spend another second on that feeling Here’s what I learned living under my rock Here’s what I found when I finally looked You know this turn you see it coming Your bored heart gives up on pumping That self-hate was persistent So those lungs are indifferent You fooled fools but that’s worthless Your pulse asks “what’s the purpose?” When tired is the entire sum That shit just makes you tiresome

World Impact 02:06
A sharp new butterfly knife Purchased from a discount site Snitch jacket and what it invites Kids have such curious minds Just another school yard beef Another fight between drug thieves This one starts and stays ugly Thirty dollars of steel in his spleen There are things that you see coming Rolling like slow moving trains Engine down city bus on a one way No point in changing lanes Three year stretch in juvie Just sit and keep your nose clean Work your traps avoid beatings Rework your inner workings Eighteen and out the door Cold waiting on mom’s front porch Yoga mat on her basement floor Big nothings what you have in store Collision Can’t avoid it now Collision Bodies strewn around Collision Course committed Collision No opting out There are things that you see coming Rolling like slow moving trains Some stay and while others go running But the crushing force just gains

She goes desk to desk teacher stalks with intent That beast it smells food or some books unapproved Some works run afoul of what she allows Big reveal band-aid peeled and the teacher is you Our connection to a thing as good as any wedding ring It binds and it’s for life and weathers any storm that it invites We’re married by experience to what we love we never lose it Orders from above but you don’t have to choose them These friends check your mail your thoughts your hair your depth And your step These friends check your record your phone your bank card your eyesight And your hemline These friends Police Your views Intent And mood They sure do a lot What can these people do for you? These friends they kill your goals your drive Drag you down To where they thrive These friends they will contort and bend to condemn Your life’s work These friends they still won’t admit what they miss they have nothing and they’ll share it. What can these people do for you?

Piss & Quiet 01:30
Staring inward all day Indulgent self-involved navel gaze A revolution in Belarus I put my energies to other use I don’t like feeling powerless It’s hard enough staying hydrated Brain is set for demolition A bomb vest strapped to my vision I’m not One for Anthems slogans or tricks Simple Cadence To sell cheap shit Don’t believe a thing From a man on stage Wish I could get religion Some silly suit or submission But even head wounds won’t permit The kind of buy-in your cult insists I’m not One for Anthems slogans or tricks Simple Cadence To sell cheap shit There is Only Yourself myself and noise Fear not Real thought Pain in the ass but it’s all you’ve got

Atomized by being lumped in Local anesthetic for your facelifts Umbrella effect and cloudy affect Bring in managers to help you manage Up late laptop burning your thighs searching women you stayed with for a week when you were nineteen Wistful at a such young age future’s not looking bright It’s odd the things that you survive They stack and stack until you’re forced to recognize: The endless stress you feel is masturbation Most times what you catch is just more cages And that villain that you fought he just reflects who you are Angry ghost or quiet spirit Starved since leaving mom’s tit I’m living between shrinking margins I’m picking through dumpsters in the alley The endless stress you feel is masturbation Most times what you catch is just more cages And that villain that you fought he just reflects who you are Verse pre-chorus chorus and bridge Writhing within a narrowing niche Bridge chorus coda and end I’m living between shrinking margins I’m living between shrinking margins Just a year review line item A forgotten bit of accounting An overdraft I’m forced to balance I’m living between shrinking margins
