1.
Use your head as a fucking weapon cause they sleep with one eye open I speak in blunt objects, Most words fall on deaf ears but I make mine knock you down
2.
Absentminded 00:21
They would rather eat their young than have a godless heathen for a son unaccepting,spineless,unforgiving,mindless, you ate what they fed you, you laid where they bed you Gullible and blinded, lonely, absentminded, you turn to them for help but only to be fooled,you could never think on your own
3.
We need the death we need the misery, without that what would you sing about, We need the death we need the history, fear of loathing covering up self doubt You tell me to stand up and be counted but you sit down when done shouting, Fuck you fake good samaritan, fuck your sense of entitlement I don't care if you think i'm a waste of life atleast i'm not lying to try and sound important
4.
I'll never have a crutch It's perplexing the way you all depend, this vessel requires sustenance, reproduction is the nature of the beast, I'll never let them get the best of me
5.
Overbearing 00:37
Headlights reflecting of headstones and i've never felt further from home driving down my own streets Too many days of self inflicted pain and now theres blood on everything i own My conflicting thoughts about the people i surround myself with are overbearing My conflicting thoughts
6.
I was a mistake piled atop a million other mistakes, the human birthrate triples the human death rate, I'd kneel down and face the sun if given the chance, it would be the most beautiful last thing i ever saw I was a mistake
7.
Trashtown 00:47
This area so filled with culture gets smashed by all the vultures, ripping apart everything they once believed The trash resides on the sides of these streets like the glass sticking into the sides of my feet Standing taller than buildings but swaying with the wind, the way the world is going it seems I'll never win The bigger you think you are the harder you will fall
8.
Home is where ever I hang my head, that place you call home is a place where I have nothing lest, thats why I left, A stranger in my hometown I walk the streets and recognize no one
9.
Nailed Shut 00:22
We all end up in the same place, don't think you're any better, we all end up with a close eyed face, don't think you're any better.I'd like to make yours unidentifiable,I'd like to make sure your casket is nailed shut
10.
With piss puddles beneath our feet, scared shitless but we have nowhere left to stand Embarrassed by the life I lead? Only by the "industry standard" am I wrong, orphaned by social indifference, this is but one part of our puzzle
11.
Mouthguard 00:11
I masked my identity when you got the best of me, but thats not the life for me
12.
20-20 00:11
Are you happy with this "gift" you've been given? Cause I don't think we see eye to eye, In the land of the blind the one eye'd man is king, but you're all blind so who gets to wear the crown?
13.
Scars and chipped teeth document the years I had nowhere else to go, the speckling glass beneath my feet never ceases to amaze me, I had no where else to go
14.
Damaged Kids 00:11
I want to scream in the faces of every kid in this basement, I want to scream to the faceless that they're never gonna make it, i hope nothing ever changes cause every day lived numb and faceless is another day I will never have to live again
15.
With the separation of the church and state you're fearing that it's too late, the children are learning at a younger age, they don't have to be locked up inside your cage. God, Fearing Youth I've heard enough of your fucked up lies, I've seen enough with my own two eyes to know the truth
16.
If only I could count the times I've scratched these numbers into the walls of my mind, I'm only pushing them to get pushed back, to feel
