If this were real
I'd be a little more turned on
My clean and incomparable creativity
Leaves me decadent without the crime of vanity
My words are more valuable than truth
Come together, and I'll leave you as proof, well.
Hey!
I've got something to say
Don't wait to tell your love it's time to procreate
Let the madness fill your mind until you have no way back out
And shatter every rule that ever gave you doubt
Live your life on your own terms
I won't live it with you (live it with you)
She underestimates the intimacy of this (intimacy)
Yeah, she's taking it all in tongue and cheek, tongue and cheek
I'll lie to you if you lie to me
So, come on, babe, why don't you fucking set me free
Free
Hey!
I've got something to say
Don't wait to tell your love it's time to procreate
Let the madness fill your mind until you have no way back out
And shatter every rule that ever gave you doubt
Live your life on your own terms
I won't live it with you (live it with you)
She underestimates the intimacy of this (intimacy)
Yeah, she's taking it all in tongue and cheek, tongue and cheek
I thought that my body would come to a level that will cover up the weakness of my doubt
Cause I thought that my body would come to a level that will cover up the weakness of my doubt
The weakness of my doubt
Said, the weakness of my
Hey!
I've got something to say

Live your life on your own terms

Just be calm
Don't let them in
Crawl through the lies
You'd be surprised
Why you gotta be so sensitive
Why you gotta be so sensitive
Is it something about the way people strut about
Cold, calm, and scattered all around
Statistics show that you will never reach your goal
So what if they tell you to just lie down and give up the fight
Why you gotta be so sensitive
Why you gotta be so sensitive
Is it something about the way people strut about
Cold, calm, and scattered all around
Why you gotta be so sensitive
Why you gotta be so sensitive
Is it something about the way people strut about
Cold, calm, and scattered all around
Why you gotta be so sensitive
Why you gotta be so sensitive
Why you gotta be so sensitive
Why you gotta be so sensitive

There's something welling up inside
So, separate the souls from the hides
Separation of church and state can't touch you in the state you're in
You're a vagabond
And I can't stretch my limits any longer
I've prepared myself
It's just a matter of time before we dry up and die
Oh, baby, we're on a ride
So, this is what you called me here for
I'm fucking more than just an alibi
So this is what it's like to die
It's just a cold, hyperactive goodbye
So, strap on in, and endure the ride
We're fucking fighting for our lives
We're fucking fighting for our lives
They're only fighting for themselves
Somebody once told me about the way we present ourselves
They said respect yourself a little more!
It was so fascinating
Oh, you had to be there
So, this is what you called me here for
I'm fucking more than just an alibi
So this is what it's like to die
It's just a cold, hyperactive goodbye
So, strap on in, and endure the ride
We're fucking fighting for our lives
We're fucking fighting for our lives
It's like something you might have read from a textbook
And not only just the words, it's the writers behind it
Yet you'd like to think we're something more than that
It's extremely un-poetic and I detest it
Yet this is what it's like to die
It's just a cold, hyperactive goodbye
So, strap on in, and endure the ride
We're fucking fighting for our lives
We're fucking fighting for our lives

Can't you see it's dark outside
You've killed everything in sight
I lost my sights in the war
When I found out who's keeping score
I don't even need to sing this note
I don't even need to sing this note
I don't even need to sing this song at all
I don't even need to sing this song
Write a bunch of words down that make you sound smart
Make everyone think that you know art
i put all my efforts in to keep this friendship alive
I got so worked up that I didn't even cry
I don't even need to sing this note
I don't even need to sing this note
I don't even need to sing this song at all
I don't even need to sing this song
Break everything that's in your path
Spend the little bit of money that you have
It's all about material and who's got more
So, go and fraternize until you start another war
I don't even need to sing this note
I don't even need to sing this note
I don't even need to sing this song at all
I don't even need to sing this song
I don't even need to sing this note
I don't even need to sing this note
I don't even need to sing this song at all
I don't even need to sing this song

Have you ever seen a dusty old highway
while walking back and forth towards the middle of nowhere
can you smell the dirt in the air
I was merely just moving towards a new direction
Any tumbleweed follower can attest to this
this is not the time or place to condemn them
but they'll all just crash and burn in the end
can we please just cut to the chase
No vacancies here, sir
No vacancies here
I can't imagine where you'll stay nor do i care
but still there are no vacancies here
So, here we are, back again
So praise the gods for all the things we have done
And everything has been said, it's now all up in my head
I'll never complain again, I'll never explain it again
So, here we are, back again
So praise the gods for all the things we have done
And everything has been said, it's now all up in my head
I'll never complain again, I'll never explain it again
No vacancies here, sir
No vacancies here
I can't imagine where you'll stay nor do i care
but still there are no vacancies here
the only meaningful solution to our problems is a brand new space/time continuum

There's life to be found
In a bottle, I've got my solace and ground
Restoring in me what got taken away
Supporting me in the times painted gray
And it's real
The scars that we've made will show brighter days
And it's real
The seeds that Ive sown will show that I have grown
And I will know what to expect on this varial cloud
That becomes less clear after we come back around
We'll all hit the ground
Because, what's righteous is not always free, you see
I understand, now, the concept of being me
I'll be free being me

Seasons greetings to you all
We've been building our walls to protect us from
Something that's been here all along
Well, Can you hear me
I've been calling your name for so long
It's been years yet I'm still going strong
God, I've completely given up
You're just a curse
And at this point
There is only one cure
So fill me with hate
Throw me to the deepest pit of loathing
Separate me from the outside world
No, not even a god could stop me now
Somebody was having the time of their life
And I mentioned the name of a person
That used intrigue me
Just to blow off some steam
I used to have so much anxiety
Yet I'm still going strong
God, I've completely given up
You're just a curse
And at this point
There is only one cure
Fill me with hate
Throw me to the deepest pit of loathing
Separate me from the outside world
Come on
Fill me with hate
Throw me to the deepest pit of loathing
Separate me from the outside world
Not even a god could stop me now
Not even a god could stop me now
Not even a god could stop me now
Not even a god could stop me now
Not even a god could stop me now
God, I've completely given up
I'm just a curse
And at this point
There is only one cure

Looking for someone who deep inside
Only wants to fill an appetite
It ends, you get thrown away
Thrown away, yeah, thrown away
She came loosely wrapped up
I bet, I bet she's used
And I bet, I bet she's used to it
She came loosely wrapped up
I bet, I bet she's used
And I bet, I bet she's used to it, yeah
Hoping you'd be satisfied with this joke
But, you'd just laugh it off.
Baby, I won't stay
Ahahah, Ahahahahahah
Hope things won't get bad tonight
You're just, just too dead inside
I thought I saw life inside
One of those cloudy eyes
She came loosely wrapped up
I bet, I bet she's used
And I bet, I bet she's used to it
She came loosely wrapped up
I bet, I bet she's used
And I bet, I bet she's used to it, yeah
She came loosely wrapped up
I bet, I bet she's used
And I bet, I bet she's used to it
She came loosely wrapped up
I bet, I bet she's used
And I bet, I bet she's used to it, yeah
She came loosely wrapped up
I bet, I bet she's used
And I bet, I bet she's used to it
She came loosely wrapped up

And I bet, I bet she's used to it, yeah

My Last Two Cents
03:34

I've created a solar system
With the sole intention
Of destroying this masquerade
And you'll see all the while we've just been
Contemplating all the things that make you want to try
Or ever gave you bragging rights
Contemplating pure reaction, fears, and every lie
Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is not the first time
So say that you don't want to
Don't want to talk about it.
Say that you don't want to
Don't want to talk about it.
Say that you don't want to
Don't want to talk about it.
It's not irrational
To not want to talk about it
Casting calls on the road
We're alone, and I can't complain
I will not reinvent myself
I, alone, can change the world I'm in
So I'll say that I don't want to.
Don't want to talk about it.
Say that I don't want to
Don't want to talk about it.
Say that I don't want to
Don't want to talk about it.
It's not irrational
To not want to talk about it
And I gave you my last two dollars
And I gave you mt last two cents
So say that you don't want to
Don't want to talk about it.
Say that you don't want to
Don't want to talk about it.
Say that you don't want to
Don't want to talk about it.
It's not irrational
To not want to talk about it

The grass is much darker from where I'm standing
Just come over and you'll see
I've counted every blade
If I had a dollar for every time I heard the worst
You'd give it all away
Let's settle our differences
By putting up fences
Let's settle our differences
By putting up fences
I've been here too long, please take me away
You live in the black and white while I live in the gray
You're just a constant reminder of why I faded away
Buy me a plane ticket
Take me away
Haven't you heard about the new kind of pain
I wish I could be
Haven't you heard about the new kind of pain
I wish that I could be
Haven't you heard of the new kind of pain
I've been to all sorts of places
Stick to me, girl
Just look at me
Step out together in the middle of the sea

"Oh well, hello there.
Aren't you a sexy little thing,
miss, it's just that straying leads to death on the rocks.
I'll risk the weathering and let 'em tether me against the mast
to hear your songs and I'll stay strong.
Are you some sort of siren
or just the siren on the ambulance to steal my skin
since I've never really taken care of myself
I've got one sad story that I'm doomed to retell
so if it's the right time for the the wrong decision
maybe I don't care if you're the temptress or the rescue mission
Wait just a minute,
You're making the same mistakes as she did.
And darlin' it's hard to resist you but it's harder to walk away
I know your secrets,
a subtle brush against the skin
my god your finger tips are breaking me down
I've braved the tempests why's it hard to brave the temptress?
after all, she's here to steal my skin
since I've never really taken care of myself
I've got one sad story that I'm doomed to retell
so if it's the right time for the the wrong decision
maybe I don't care if you're the temptress or the rescue mission
Wait just a minute,
you're making the same mistakes as she did.
And darlin' it's hard to resist you but it's harder to walk away from 8 years of love
So take those pretty eyeballs
'cause I've got a pair where I feel safe
And maybe I'll come to regret this but it's something I just can't shake
and I'm a man but I'm afraid
that I've got time, that it's not too late
for me to fall in love again and be okay.
so baby I'm the man you sought to break,
your plane's on time you best not be late
if you had stayed I don't know what i could do to stop from sinking
Wait just a minute,
you're making the same mistakes as she did.
And darlin' it's hard to resist you but it's harder to walk away from 8 years of love
So take those pretty eyeballs
'cause I've got a pair where I feel safe
And maybe I'll come to regret this but it's something I just can't shake"

I got my head checked
By a jumbo jet
It wasn't easy
But nothing is
No
When I feel heavy-metal
And I'm pins and I'm needles
Well, I lie and I'm easy
All the time but I'm never sure
Why I need you
Pleased to meet you
I got my head down
When I was young
It's not my problem
It's not my problem
When I feel heavy-metal
And I'm pins and I'm needles
Well, I lie and I'm easy
All the time but I am never sure
Why I need you
Pleased to meet you
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

Come on, baby. Sell me something new
Show me that you have a clue
I thought you could show me something new
But, you proved me wrong like they always do
Woah, woah.
Woah, woah.
Make a statement and call me a tease
We'll swim together through through my clean disease
I long for things and I cannot be pleased
So, we'll sink below until it's hard to breathe
Woah, woah.
Woah, woah.
I always thought you'd get me out of this rut
Instead, I found that you were just put here to fuck me up
So, come on, baby, try your luck
Yeah, come on baby, enough is enough
Woah, woah.
Woah, woah.
Woah, Woah.
Woah, woah.
Come on, baby. Sell me something new
Show me that you have a clue
I thought you could show me something new
But, you proved me wrong like they always do
Woah, woah.
Woah, woah.
