im just gonna sit and cough today
im just gonna sit and cough

you wear a shirt for six months

you wear a jacket for six months
then when thats over
start again older
always i can hardly think at all
always
all waste

i'll waste

the Camera

im crying like a little girl
but little girls as strong as heck
and well it's not a perfect world
we've been sent to try our best
just try to be, grateful, that you can count your calories
there used to be, nothing to eat
im starving or i'm full again
i eat too much or i starve to death
after all of these years of doing it
you got so good punching your own head
just try to be, thankful, that you can count at all
there used to be no history
all these clips off the past
each one i thought was the last
what a coincidence
i find them before my death
of course i'd break the camera
of course i'd break the tape
break the hearts of them, all my friends i got left
say again again. again again again
of course i'd break the camera
of course i'd break the tape

Wheezing Cougher
03:52

it's like stubbing your cold toe
constructing new metaphors
cause it's all been done before
so thats why ya play the chords
well the chords will get old too
don't believe what they tell you
originality is a luxury
ya only progress if you perceive
everything comes back to you
memories at your feet
feels so good to think
but it hurts so much to
restart everything you that you though was cool
cause it's not and neither are you
find me, the wheezing cougher, inside screens for hours
waste time it doesn't matter, you'll end up back on your couch
i'm wasting my time, looking for colleges
i can't find money for all this shit
wasting my time putting music in time and writing these rhymes
i can't find the time to read a book but i will find
the time, to lie, in bed, all day, cause im behind, behind, benign.

Ode to Jeve
03:42

they're cutting off the toes man
all the earlobes too
its hard to balance like this
when all the blood leaks through my shoes
another dream to wake up from
cross the desert of my mouth
scrape the mucus of my tongue
and then get up off the couch
chorus;
pitchfork, and horns, adored, and mourned
i think of you too much
too much of you i think
i think too much i think
i think of you too much
immensely insecure
propaganda in my hallways
morbidly unsure
and im crawling towards my calling
another morning is procured
after all my stalling
i will be pure
and im one with nothing
chorus
its the snake that tricked your mother
its the date that took your brother
original sin, is her not starving, a masculine of blaming the other
populism is a fallacy, paradoxical form of prophecy
praise be the demagogue above, your god is satan to me
an identical set of evolutionary accidents
when i hear you talk again i laugh like i did when i was a kid
justify why you are the way you are its just as hard as being alive
being alive, hating october, cause it always feels
like the end of the world

I Brake For Moose
02:30
|

|
aint is not
a real word
but i am
a real person
when i said it
you knew what i meant
so why do you
condescend
is there a correlation? some where between my eyes?
lets have a conversation, one that sparks our minds
give us some validation, our hearts aint hard to find
is this a simulation? our lives ; predefined
land of the free
home of the brave
land of the sheep
home of the slaves
am i wrong? i must be wrong
are you right? you must be right
my wrist is ticking and turning
and deciding time
defining obligations
and when they will arrive
my inhaler is on zero, placebo will suffice
i lay and die inside as my lungs try to survive

all the progress that you make, youll forget about anyway, and in a couple of days, you'll feel youre back in the same place
deviate to conformity
or just conform deviantly
alleviate youre suffering
and start writing some pretty things
the mountains turn clouds
the clouds turn to the ground
theyre screaming now
theyre telling me to get put
you cant bring them back at all
but you can remember all the calls
because they make you laugh again
and reminisce of your old friends
youre not the monkey you used to be
no youre not a monkey at all
unfortunately a human being
with all yer problems to solve
and just like my rubix cube
everything old once was new
and just like im missing you
they're gonna miss me too
and when i turn around, they're calling me your name, they're screaming now, they're telling me to get out
on the vhs, pure happiness, you were just a kid, just a little kid

ya know
ive got a lot of things to say, and i think they're all very important
but ya know maybe that much
wasn't really important to say
chorus:
your words dont matter
youre going backwards
quit your job
you dont need no more
looking forward
yelling louder
moving forward
yelling
say hello to the past because its stompin at your heels
sometimes its impossible, to feel the way other people feel
take a look around and say everythings changed
but ya know yer still here, ya hate yourself, and youre in this place
chorus
looking up but feeling down
the stars are shooting and falling
im here on the cool ground
other than sounds i feel nothing

Arachnid

|
all the spiders are dead on the walls where i killed them
my friend hunter said, pretend, again, begin, the end
everybody is a critic or my therapist
and all of your friends are talking shit in their heads
chorus:
i need to get out of this
this hopeless helpless vastness
this nasty vat of plastics
im a rat with asthma
i am just salt
steal my electrons
kill everyone
cause i'll be poison
all your diatribes are pointless
scream your head off and theyll ignore it
chorus

Sad Fish Man
02:45
|

|
as the comets streak across my face
the tears evaporate into space
the clouds will return, in the morning
this fog in your brain, is a warning
things aren't the same as yesterday
you're slapping your face just to stay awake
your brain is caught in some caution tape
you shouldn't be in the tragedies
chorus;
stupendously insensitive
an incentive to be irrelevant
cause yer not like the other kids
if they are mice you're an elephant
a vacation to a vacant cove
we're just breaking into a mobile home
there's bullet holes in your overalls
we've learned our lesson in being wrong
carpet bomb your enemies, then blame refugees
its a spit in the face, casted blame on a gentle breeze
chorus
it is bad, for me
it is real, its real for me
oh its real bad, for me
for me its bad and real you'll see

Ghoul

dont we all walk funny?
oh what an awkward gait
what a beautiful saunter
and such a sour face
i dont want to
have to see you
it kills us both
you are my ghost
your skull is rotting in your head
your head is a rotting skull
when your plans fall out
who will you call?
well it wont be me
im in my vault
and after all
im too seductable
i dont want to
have to see you
you are a ghoul
i am one too
harmless poison
garbage person
an empty face
we're all replaced
recycled thoughts
its endless laughter
pretty voices
hateful laughter

Cool Kids (Flake Out)
01:59
|
|||
|
Do you remember when I was cool
Well, I know I flaked out a time or two
I'm sure I flaked out, I know that it's true because
cool kids flake out
So, don't be sad when
cool kids flake out
And if you're feeling bad, remember that
cool kids flake out
Oh yeah
Cool kids have a lot on their plate
and they get tired when they stay up late
They might make you feel like you're second rate
but it's just (that) cool kids flake out
Don't be sad when
cool kids flake out
And if you're feeling bad, remember that
cool kids flake out
Oh yeah
So, before you place the blame
Even though it might be pretty lame
If you were a cool kid you might do the same because
cool kids flake out
So, don't be sad when
cool kids flake out
And if you're feeling bad, remember that
cool kids flake out
cool kids flake out
cool kids flake out
