T.H.F. 01:37
You seem to think With ritual impunity A false sense of security The masses should be scared Your evil eye is everywhere Watch your mouth Speak my mind Thriving on fear and diluted ideas Man When will you wake up Throw out your ego It's gonna be a long time It's gonna be a long time A manufactured Pile of junk, no guts, just circuits, wires and lungs Gnawing me Calling me Putting me down Leech to an empire of sheep dead asleep to the sound Sludge that you're pumping is coating, corrupting Your peers But all we hear Are your toys, in your voice "I don't care about you" Stalking and clawing The truth you're ignoring is your life's a void that you can't help but keep falling through

Salts 02:16
Won't you step into my peace And take a part of me I'll free you of your reasons For feeding on yourself Drowning out the sounds That sit inside your head Screaming that you're a lesion Inadequate It does the damage and the work Herding security That I can never lure "You used to care" I used to care impaired And I'd sing the cells goodbye As they march along and Paint the walls of my insides I'm fooled again Recidivist The locust have their king again A sterilized, contrived Palatable lie It does the damage and the work Herd insecurity That I can never purge And it always works It's all about to be a joke Makes me make believe Helps me suffer peace

Lloyd 03:12
Voice like acetylene It's good for cutting through teeth Kiss it to sleep with lips like dramamine Now all I see before me is sublime   Under fluorescent lights A fly going happily blind It was entertaining Forever I pierced the sky when I fell over,  I was there, I was staring at the sun When I saw god dissecting cows with loaded guns Hands were feeding glue into my head To keep it from caving in As they tear it apart Forever You'll find relief is cherry sweet Today I breathed my own blood Dear diamonds leaking from the seams I hope you find your perfect teeth Damage I felt a breeze beneath these sheets Of this pretty skin that I've been rolling in Your life tastes like mine Your life tastes like mine Your life tastes like mine Your life tastes like mine Your life tastes like mine Your life tastes like mine Your life tastes like mine Your life tastes like So glad to know I'm part of you My flailing arms are celebrating Paid-for philosophy You've done the best I could To patch you up, sewn into Another day of limping through What are you, Now? Are you feeling better now? Are you feeling better now? Are you feeling better now? Are you feeling better now? Cause I'm feeling better

Modern Art 01:16
I used to starve my world Dead body, nobody's I used to scar my world Nobody Can understand their sole command Is programming me to care About their ignorance Cause their life makes sense And I'm over it You and all the rest I don't want to spend my time giving a shit Or drink the cups you kool-aid fucks Keep throwing back I don't want to feel dead again Death to the frauds whose crooked jaws Ripped me to shreds I want to fade into the shade Of this silo Where I'm gonna blow apart my thoughts Paint them on the wall And call It modern art

Cantina 02:28
Dead Christ on the curbside Baby I'm alone Sewing seeds to ease the love Perc up! shut the fuck Up, already I know I find better days With looser veins Context to blame that I'm Closer to the third kind I don't want her to know I'm scraping the floor I guess I'll see ya Cantina call me My baby knows just what I need Another hit, I'm on my knees Begging the serving hand To feed me stinging peace So I stood in line For a second time cause it felt alright But I know that she can Feel whole without me I know she really can't find the time To think about me I want to bite right through my leash But don't want to be alone Baby I want to see ya Cantina call me? Cantina call me? Cantina call me? Cause I'm feeling like I always do Said I've been fading in the shade Everything just tastes the same Sit around and losing track, yeah  The looking glass is staring back It doesn't fit And I feel
