It’s alright, I believe ya I’d just double check your crooked media We’ve been lied to for so long But pretty much everything that you know’s wrong We don't have time, here this evenin’ For litanies of things I don't believe in Cuz we are all such Ghastly creatures Trust me I’ve read quite a bit of Nietzsche All things must end And some of my old friends are dead I Guess I should be grateful then God damn…. I don’t know how You’re supposed to take this But all your heroes basically were racists The sea is full of Mercury and silver And all your favorite foods are gonna kill ya The banks control it all They Own Every nation I’ve been keeping my cash in the basement ever since I was a walking time bomb Now I’m a lonely giant And I’ll keep this up until ya’ll start to cry and All things must end And some of my old friends are dead I Guess I should be grateful then God damn….

Treasonous 03:40
Just couldn’t leave it alone I guess a moment in time, a little white lie, what’s the harm in it Would you believe I was so obsessed I rationalized it, I justified it in my head But I made a mess when I succumbed Clearly this ugly thing I’ve done Makes me wonder who I have become And though my deception was real, it was really an act of lust But it’s treasonous, treasonous, treasonous Now I look back and wonder why It’s hard to recall anything at all after all this time Clearly it wasn’t worth the strife I can’t dismiss it, man I’ve been missing my old life But I made a mess when I succumbed Clearly this ugly thing I’ve done Makes me wonder who I have become And though my deception was real, it was really an act of lust But it’s treasonous, treasonous, treasonous

See ya bickering on the book about facts incessantly braying screaming lies about that guess these turbulent times will make a man crack now ya satisfied lads are on the attack Well I’ve thought insane things too But I think we’ve heard enough from you sick of monotonous paranoid rants about Joe how he’s a rapist a criminal mastermind though ya’ll are a pack of hungry wild dogs at our throats half of the nation hanging from the end of your rope Well I’ve thought insane things too But I think we’ve heard enough from you Yeah I’ve thought insane things too But nothing compared to these fools Well you’ve had your time we just wish that you would be gone but we can only dream of things that we would like to see for so long When will you you realize that everything you say is wrong? Our patience is about to break, we’m be overtaken overrun and DONE Well I’ve thought insane things too But I think we’ve heard enough from you Yeah I’ve thought insane things too But nothing compares to these fools Yeah I’ve thought insane things too

When you got out you left no room for a shadow of doubt It Went without saying, that you weren’t the same but We all just Tried to forget about it So we took some hits Many more than I care to admit And something had just changed inside you I barely even recognized you Been that way ever since What will it take for you to listen to me try to find something else besides LSD You can’t just walk away Cause this won’t ever change it’s time to medicate You know I hate to judge But your path to self-destruction is so obvious With your Rapid fire philosophizing Endless breathless proselytizing Threatening those you love So now I draw the line Cause we have simply had this conversation far too many times And in case there is still confusion Doing nothing’s no solution Asking for help is fine, so why deny What will it take for you to listen to me Gotta find something else besides LSD You can’t just walk away Cause this won’t ever change It’s time to medicate What will it take for you to listen to me Gotta find something else besides LSD You can’t just walk away Cause this won’t ever change It’s time to medicate

All the flagrant lies that I’ve been fed over the years Every next one feeling more offensive to my ears You’ve always been reliable and ignorant it’s true That’s why these ancient tired men keep pandering to you For all my life since you I’ve been on my own Never needed platitudes or sacred tomes And Once I stepped up and over your hard lines Then I remembered how you’d threaten and demonize We’ll be losing rights by your hands, don’t you doubt it It won’t affect your lives until your Wives and children die and you can’t do nothing about it For all my life since you I’ve been on my own Never needed platitudes or sacred tomes And Once I stepped up and over your hard lines Then I remembered how you’d threaten and demonize

I can hear you from the hall I can feel you through the walls Wouldn’t claim to know it all I don’t have the wherewithal So I try to avoid a fight Though i don’t really have the right I only know it in hindsight But you aren’t speaking to me I’ll just have to leave things be We both know that I need an overhaul I fear if you knock down my frozen wall You’ll truly see me and walk out the door saying nothing at all Before you were in my life There was no inner light Not one that I could find It needed a spark to ignite There is life within me found This is why I need you around You’re my feet on solid ground But once you’re out of reach I’m an empty paper bag on the beach We both know that I need an overhaul I fear if you knock down my frozen wall You’ll truly see me and walk out the door saying nothing at all I never thought you’d love I never thought you’d love I never thought you’d love I always thought you’d run I always thought you’d run I always thought you’d run We both know that I need an overhaul I fear if you knock down my frozen wall You’ll truly see me and walk out the door saying nothing at all

So many things to which I can’t relate But from the lofty tower I’ve had time to sit and contemplate These crooked people can’t decide our fate Our arms and legs are buckling, giving out under the weight I haven’t lost that much in all of this anything less than catastrophe is easy to dismiss Yet I can’t help but feel so powerless Just sit and watch the world keep sliding into the abyss solutions are still far away so many ways we could go astray What can I even say I’ve been so bent out of shape But I’ll keep reaching my hands out and over the fray Innumerable things we can’t decide just how much of our history was really genocide And will all of us make it out alive While we’re at each other’s throats there’s almost no way to survive solutions are still far away so many ways we could go astray What can I even say I’ve been so bent out of shape But I’ll keep reaching my hands out and over the fray

Oh my, did worlds collide? The conversation faltered and died Why did her face go white? Why is everyone being so quiet? I just hear the kind of silence Anyone would despise I guess I must be the tyrant And I need some advice In my vacant state of mind Went and stepped on the beehive Didn’t take too long to find Less than ten but at least five I can’t even tell you why Couldn’t I just have stayed quiet I guess I go too far sometimes Alright, it’s time to decide The incident from the other night in my mind it was really benign Might’ve been too deep in the wine Cuz I never did aspire To be faded so long I’m not even sure what transpired All ‘s I know’s I was gone In my vacant state of mind Went and stepped on to the beehive Didn’t take too long to find Less than ten but at least five I couldn’t even tell you why Couldn’t I just have stayed quiet I guess I go too far sometimes

Cakewalk 03:07
Whistling lonely teardrops Then it hits me obvious My last line is so just like that Sure I was digging it but now it must be scrapped Another crash and burnout Startin to think my critical mind Is really nothing more than a curse Spent an eternity just writing this god damn verse It might seem to be real vain But I want to know is it appreciated are we even being creative here Ya’ll have been the height of patience Givin me all the time I need I know its been way too long It shouldnt be so hard to finish a handful of songs But Now I can only wonder If these nihilistic dreams Are really payin off these days With no beliefs there just isn’t a lot to say It might seem to be real vain But I want to know is it appreciated are we even being creative here It might seem to be real vain But I want to know is it appreciated are we even being creative here

The scene looking out at the sea i wonder if we and our like will remain but now it would seem in our systems of being we are not guaranteed a life or domain how much existence can be seen? are miracles just dopamine? and what’s a miracle to me I don’t believe But somehow it’s got to be Are we even really able to make our feelings clear It would seem, that my only means of communication is this right here What you’re hearing, through the speakers what I breath and what we feel is a glorious thing, but a thing all the same And i have to wonder if it’s even real how much existence can be seen? are miracles just dopamine? and what’s a miracle to me I don’t believe But somehow it’s got to be how much existence can be seen? are miracles just dopamine? and what’s a miracle to me I don’t believe But somehow it’s got to be
