Track Name: Skin and Bones
evacuation fails, you’re trapped in stone
california waits up by the phone
you trust a system to protect your fate
we’re waiting, frustrated

survival is a privilege of the rich
panic breaks among the citizens
they calculate the cost to spare your life
and it’s cheaper to leave her

you’re on your own (your safety was a loan)
we’re skin and bones (your credit has all gone)

the best laid plans, if there are plans, can fail
disaster divides powerful from frail
and shall your meek inherit what is left
inaction abandons
you’re on your own (your safety was a loan)
we’re skin and bones (your credit has all gone)
Track Name: Monstrous
brim full of shock, my body just a clock
my free will to be mocked by my nature
crawled under a rock now i’m forced back to the flock
just an army full of hot incubators

sober from my life undone
i’m colder than a silo
(i’ll hit but i can’t make a dent
i’ll chase it but i won’t gain a step
i’ll scream it, but i can’t make a noise,
i’m shaky and losing all my poise)

grim little thoughts, surrender what is lost
a host to what was not in my favor
fall into a sloth, now i’m just part of the cause
of a solemn, shady lot of masturbators

shoulders down, i eat the ground
there’s no view now of tomorrow
(i’ll jump it, or i’ll just fly instead
i’ll catch it catch and release again
i’ll hit it, and watch it bleed to death
i’m monstrous and moving straight ahead.)

now we belong
our cells sing the universal wrong
of a life force on the run

fruit of knowledge, ripe with promise
never rotting out, i wanted naught
for solace, blood is lawless
i’ll be honest, yeah, i want it all
life of legends, place in heaven
never settled in, i wanted naught
find a calling, bludgeoned, crawling
i’ll be honest, yeah, i want it all
Track Name: Tick Tock
tell me i’m alive, tell me i’m alright
tell me that i tick tick tock
sadly brutalize, cheaply criticize
i’m done with all this sick sick talk

everyone’s a liar selling me their time, but i can’t hear a word they say
i wish that i was brighter in polity and science, but i’m suffocated by their ways.

fantasy falls on its face, potential smolders
no better life to replace the disappointment
Track Name: Dearly Departed
the purposelessness inside us all
unsatisfied in spite of what we’re on
and memory fails to feel anything new
the lies to dead ends all used to be true
now we’re off
we’re on, we’re off
wear on, wear off

the worthlessness felt inside us both
questions unanswered to give us a sense of false hope
we live and relearn the fear and destruction
trauma has won once the pain is reluctant to go
and we chose what we owe
and i loathe all i know

what’s worth saving or amputating?
war with god and angels, slain
victory’s vain
we’re on, we’re off

what’s worth saving or amputating?
war with guardian angel, slain
history’s vain
Track Name: Homemade Haircuts
biking around a blueprint block of
a land in a town that’s died down
everything’s slate, the view is slivered
time to lay down your crown

arms are locked in forced from flailing out
tiny clocks in our heads bang around
evolution, an illusion played out
keep us confused, failing till we phase out

riding around a blueprint block of
a land in a town that’s died down
everything’s slate, the view is slivered
time to lay down your crown

minds are locked in forced from flailing out
tiny blocks in our heads bang around
institution, an illusion grayed out
keep us all bruised, failing till we pass out

nights left you two cold
and i’ve promised you old
the swelling of distance comes creeping and falters my head
the kiss of a close one converting my thoughts to the west

nights left you two cold
and i’ve promised you old
should I expect all the world to just meet me half way
it’s me and my own and my arms will extend everyday
Track Name: Piss in the Snow
pleasure in peril, a blockade
the monsoon is lusting for earthquakes
blood on stone gates
the eyelid is lying awake

piss in the snow meets a dark lake
flashlights are scanning the dirt lane
car crash head gash
oxygen leaving the brain

sweet taste of smoke after the rain
the humming a machine rusting makes
big bang death pangs
a bell tolls a march in your name

last time we called you they said that you were sick,
we memorized your lines and then we had to play with it.
the chaos of your ill content came drifting like a death,
a post-apocalyptic sing along in every breath
Track Name: Clammy Calm
i have found it’s all a sin
a core report we never sent
lessons come and quickly go
a stunt in growth that found us low

listen to my simple plan
a task to make us whole again
your god, your fool, your only hope
teased us with a moral code

i will be you inflatable man
blow me up with your commands
fall away when i surely pop
alone and spent, my talents drop

panic blurs into paralysis
suddenly when your lips insist to claim me
blood running out from every dart
to battle the scars split wounds apart so tame me
bless every limb with skin to skin
your touch and taste absolve my sins so save me
sadness blurs into a state of bliss
suddenly when your hips insist so take me
Track Name: Regret Regard
it’s a lost cause for a heart too rough
you disappoint and die alone
and the chains fall at the time of death
unless you grieve and end regret

is it void of loyalty and trust?
you disappear and die alone
and the blade falls on the name that ties
a silent pain drips from the eye

time flies in your mountain of lies
and i’ve tried to confide, but you say

it’s a lost cause for a heart too tough
i demonize and fight alone
a change stalls at the time of stress
unless i breathe and end duress

is it spoiled by fallacy and lust?
i criticize and cry alone
the rain falls on the sea of lies
the drowning pain slips from the sky

sorry i can’t be the one for you,
i’m begging for you, but don’t say
