not understood, okay
i’m gonna do this lame shit my way
gimme gimme, I need more
all I’m hearing, so I shut the fucking door
i’m trying to fly away, and your a pest
exterminate you cause I’m trying to build my nest
it’s been worse, and I’m blessed
tight shirt, life is hard to undress
when I swallow, I digest
and all the poison starts gettin to my head
all my life I’ve been doin all the things they told me, wrong
i just do it how I want
and if you wanna, tag along
i’ve been in the soil face down, waiting for light to shine
i’ve been backed up against the wall, so many damn times
the clarinet goes
do what I do
for myself
always have, always will
like a flower, guess I lost a few petals
you won’t see me out here winning any medals
off the chain, off the hook
most of them just do it by the book
i’m not perfect, but I ain’t no fucking crook
i don’t steal shit
you let it in
it’s in your skin
it has your life, it has your kids
it has your house, it has your miss
while you’re laying face down in your piss
all my life I’ve been doin all the things they told me, wrong
i just do it how I want
and if you wanna, tag along
i’ve been in the soil face down, waiting for light to shine
i’ve been backed up against the wall, so many damn times
the clarinet goes
I just wanna hear the foghorn when it starts to blow
Let it keep me on my toes
Let it keep me on my toes
I just wanna hear the foghorn when it starts to blow
Let it keep me on my toes

I have to rock with the pain
To understand the terrain
Hell of a lot better
Frying like a rotten egg
Life explodes like a powder keg
It’s like I lost a leg
I don’t want it back
Still follows me around, like I’m trying to backtrack
Just a fucking scalawag
The kind your grandma whacks with her black handbag
So I’m holding up the white flag
Ego had me pinned
Now I’m coming atcha rag tagged
Used to feel heavy like a sandbag
Now I’m like whatever happens
Just happens
We stay blind
I’m so not aligned
Your so well designed
Die for the perfect high
Masturbate to your decline
This fucking facade
Won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?
It’s up to me to make this shit right
Not heroic, not a shining knight
But I’m outside when the moon shines blinding bright
Trying to take a peek at real life
To my delight, like a dog bite
Something always grabs me tight
Leaves me kinda right
Flushed like a fucker just born
No judge, I got a hold of my soul unscorned for a second
I’ve been hushed
I’ve been rushed
I’ve been crushed
But I still blush when you say my name, just like you do
But I don’t live no victims story
Just another piece of meat
Hanging off the skew
No oxygen, I’ll start turning blue
Average Joan, just like you
And I don’t have to impress anybody
We stay blind
I’m so not aligned
Your so well designed
Die for the perfect high
Masturbate to your decline
This fucking facade

My, (imagination)
Flips a coin, keeps spinning
One minute, I’m grinning
Now the sweats really dripping
My, (Imagination)
Pinning life down from beginning
Now I guess I’m really slipping
Into the knife real slow like
That’s just part of life, I don’t care
More I reject, I loose flair
More I obsess, I loose hair
The more you talk, I don’t care
Too see through like glassware
Your act is cheap like bus-fare
The end is an idea so what the fuck do I got to fear
My, (imagination)
A charade, keeps tricking
Twenty weeks, starts kicking
See the spam, start clicking
My, (imagination)
Start bidding, on my life
Mixing knitting with stripping
Head spinning, real violent like
Why can’t we all settle way down now
Cut me on my eyebrow
Hefty like a cow
Sail out to Macao
Hide myself away forever
Or until time allows

Resurrected

Everyday i stretch my neck
Falling into black water
Try and dodge the swatter
I don’t want to bother
Unplug and cut the chord
I always think about my father
I’m about to leave the building
Constant mental power drilling
I let go and it starts spilling
I’ve been somewhere else before this
Now beset with disconnections
Someday I’ll be resurrected
Into someone unaffected
Pain everyday
I’d take the train along my blue vein
Or take a trip to my brains drained state
Misunderstood
I thought everything would speak for itself
Out of power to unravel to the masses
I thought everything would speak for itself
Just to get you through the day
And back into your bed again
So many people got a big head
For a life that guarantees death
Can’t infect another insect
Squished on the asphalt
It’s not earth that I’m living on
Some kinda man made spawn
Human so I’ve got the sickness
These worthless, my addictions witness
I’ve been somewhere else before this
Now beset with disconnections
Someday I’ll be resurrected
Into someone unaffected

Forgive It All

Riding around, blasting Final Conflict
Watch the sun go down
Come from Southern California
First you smile, then you frown
Too much faith in law around me
Stay away from drink I do
Family history tonight
Stain of liquor bleeding through
The more you fight against it
The less that you are lucky
Rest in peace Mike
Hard to see you go like that
Think about it now and then
Shiver down my back
Need some pliers to my head
To fix a different path
Forgive it all and don’t look back
Apocalypse
Sinking ship
Finger tips are numb
In my grave I stay playing the same drum
In my grave I stay playing the same
Fall into the ocean
Above the surface everything is light
Clenching as I sleep
My hand makes a fist, I close my eyes
The more you fight against it
The less that you are lucky
If you don’t like the way it goes
Then turn the wheel the other way
Everyone will make you hate you
Only you will make you stay
Apocalypse
Sinking ship
Finger tips are numb
In my grave I stay, playing the same drum
In my grave I stay playing the same

One more mental cavity
Past is the past
Give myself a hand
I won’t slip through the cracks
Nothings ever black and white
Hiding out in plain sight
I know that it’s not right
Air I breathe is gone tonight
Pretty good to meet you
Remember all the things that I put you through
Every single bruise that I left stayed blue
All the deep cuts that I made bled through
All the times I didn’t let you be you
Faking something else
So I wasn’t see through
Playing mans game
Stuck like glue
Couldn’t break loose
Couldn’t break loose
Past is the past
Give myself a hand
I won’t slip through the cracks
It’s like a shank in the stomach
Seven days a week
Whether I’m awake or asleep
The fall is very steep
Take a leap or you sink
Expand or you shrink
It’s hard to see you like this
All full of holes in the soul like swiss
A swing and a miss
I guess I got however long I live to kiss bliss
Yeah
Hear that fucking train horn
Wake you up from your sleep
Got you feeling reborn
Yeah
Sitting by the candlelight
Day fades into night
Loosing sight like a salamander
Who the fuck are you trying to impress
Chickens with the heads cut off
Dollar brawlers always looking to oppress
That fancy footwork and finesse
