Day of Pain
04:25

The pain will never go away
A pungent stain from an endless day
Tell the people it won’t always be this way
The pain will be here to stay
Humans fighting for survival
Humans fighting for reprieve
Human learning time is ending
Human believing in forgetting to believe
Anywhere you see a face
Even when in outer space
Human being feel pain
Pain engulf the human race
The pain always remain
To mark the never passing of an endless day
People every day is one more day
And every day is a day of pain
Why don’t you go out tonight
It’s early and the day’s still light
Know that you’ll always be right
As long as you keep the pain in sight
Why don’t you go out and fight
Stab a stranger in the moonlight
It can’t compare to the pain inside
It can’t compare to the pain inside
The pain always remain
To mark the never passing of an endless day
People every day is one more day
And every day is a day of pain

Crossed

Winter time give away
Bags of clothes and needless things
Waste not, but always wanting more
A new kind of gun that takes away the sore
It slows down around town this time of year
I guess most people are from somewhere that isn’t here
Lucky me I take a full two weeks
Though I have no plans to leave
Spend it smoking on the porch
Spend it walking in the rain
Spend it writing something new
Spend it medicating brain
The holidays tend to test your patience
Something invisible making you anxious
Call it a cold snap
Bringing shitty memories back
Make empty threats to leave at 3AM
Good thing you didn’t make plans with friends
You drive back home alone this time
You know that you’ve crossed a line again
Crossed it waking in the night
Crossed it yelling all the time
Crossed it making things alright
Crossed it without paying any mind
Crossed it waking in the night
Crossed it yelling all the time
Crossed it making things alright
Crossed it without paying any mind
But it’s ok, your new friends are here
Waiting in the nightstand drawer
Celebrate, if it’s gone away
Why I didn’t do this before?

Golden State
02:04
|

Find a reason to relocate
The weather’s better and the price gap’s closing
Find a reason, don’t hesitate
8 years was a long time to wait
Find the reasoning and place
Two hands upon the golden state
Find a reason find a reason
Take care, it’s fire season
Find a reason find a reason
Take care, it’s fire season
Sun drenched
Drying out
Make a spell to make the rains come down
The lake is drying and things are turning up
Dead bodies and a pickup truck
The lake is drying and things are turning up
Dead bodies and a boatload of muck
Sun drenched
Drying out
Make a spell to make the rains come down
The lake is drying and things are turning up
Dead bodies and a pickup truck
The lake is drying and things are turning up
Where’s the water California’s fucked

I cannot wait
To look you in the face
In another life
Your life’s the one I’ll take
You were never there
I was all too aware
You were never there
I was all too aware
I wanted to cry
All because you lied
In another life
My tears will be a knife
You were never there
I was all too aware
You were never there
I was all too aware
With my sights set on the prize
I will look into your eyes
Trading feelings, taking lives
Moving faster, losing time
Cognitive distortions on the rise
With a bold statement
Of hatred
This life can be what
We make it
With a bold statement
Of hatred
This life can be won

Rations
03:18
|
|||
|
Cashed in
Checked out
Crawl in a hole
Of self doubt
What’s this struggle about
What’s a struggle without
Time left over
Time spent sober
Might discover
Four leaf clover
What’s this struggle about
What’s a struggle without
Kill something off with a smile
It’s dead and you’re in denial
Ration water, ration weed
Ration dreams, ration needs
Ration hopeful, ration dread
Ration good thoughts in your head
Ration high points for the lows
Ration armor for the blows
Ration meals for the end
Ration it all my friend

Floodgates
03:15
|
|||
|
My head is an ocean
My eyes are the waves
I let the fog roll in
I let my heart sink
I let the ocean take me away
I let the ocean take me away
The flood gates open
Take me away
I met your god on living rock
He was sitting there
Waiting for the bus
Asked me for some change
I said “hey man, listen. You’re the one who’s supposed to change me”
But I’m not a sucker for dumb luck
Sophisticated
Syndicated
Chlorophyll chlorine
The chemicals that got me

Mansions
01:23
|
|||
|
I want to live in mansions
hang with the billionaires
But I’m not well enough
Cuz I crept around the earth like scum
I want to join a members only club
I want the privilege of being above
All the news that comes from
All the societal problems
Sing a song for the president
Try to deflect all the hate he gets
It’s not his fault that he chose to be our savior
bought by loonies with stolen valor
I wanna seek the endless truth
find a line that divides me and you
I wanna get paid for my work
I want people to Google search my net worth

Victory Star
03:22
|

|
I am a nano bot, blind to the eye
Secret machine that cures the decay
Simply believe in my creator
An organic branch of governing nature
Olive like with leaves of poison
Nano bot with a nano list
Of every name chosen
We’re not alone
It’s not too far
Searching for that victory star
To find a place
In outer space
A second home
So we don’t die alone
Life’s meaning
Dull feeling
We’re all numb from wheelin and dealin
It was a soft light glowing upward
The animals all honed their claws
The sky rained down on the boulevard
The clouds began to part with a glimpse
Of the Victory Star
We’re not alone
It’s not too far
Searching for that victory star
To find a place
In outer space
A second home
So we don’t die alone

Lucky Ones
02:53
|

|
Line up your spirits
And faith in good waves
Call on Saint Sinclair
To remember thy name
Sounds that only travel
Through our atmosphere
They can be heard for miles
They will never pass the circle
We are out of fuel
(We don’t forgive)
Out of formula
(We can’t compete)
We are out of tune with the modern world
We are biased and alone
We are the forgotten home grown
We are out of fuel
(We don’t forgive)
Out of formula
(We can’t compete)
We are out of tune with the modern world
We are biased and alone
We are the forgotten home grown
As if we are the lucky ones
We are the forgotten home grown
As if we are the lucky ones
We are the forgotten home grown
So peace be with us
When the sun expands
We watch the chosen
Leave the lands
As if this was written
In the sand
Too blind to see while the sun expands

Gone By
02:42
|
|||
|
In a new age
With renewed rage
Rattle everything
From your new cage
On the same page
As the old page
Yesterday's gone and tomorrow got away
Look in the mirror
Reflecting horror
Face you don’t recognize
Sorrow in your eyes
Look in the mirror
Reflecting horror
Face you don’t recognize
Sorrow in your eyes
Yesterday's gone and tomorrow got away
Another day Another day Another day Another day Another day
(Gone by Gone by Gone by Gone by Gone by)
The sun is descending
and what have I got to show for it
Yesterday's gone and tomorrow got away
Another day Another day Another day Another day Another day
(Gone by Gone by Gone by Gone by Gone by)
The sun is descending
and what have I got to show for it
The sun is ending
5 billionaires away
