Angel's Egg

Call me, call me Mr. Pitiful,
Always see you in my peripherals.
Four-eyed freak- I see you through your clothes,
and through your skin is someone cynical.
What monsters will you birth today,
it's a shame, I wouldn't have you any other way.
You’re an angel’s egg, you’re a pathogen,
It's no surprise the end is just an accident.
Woah- oh. Woah- oh.
Woah- oh. Woah- oh.
Stuck to you like barnacles,
and only making sounds of the animals.
Never used- i knew your stupid ruse,
as if a gnat were that which could smack and abuse.
I swat you from my hand, you’re still flying to me slowly,
Two-tongued snake that cant shake feeling fucking lonely.
And cynic for a cynic, we make a little stogie,
it’ll rip apart so quick.
I tried to keep things kind, treated you to a nevermind,
and once you left I had no bad lingering left to feel.
Fused into all we had, then we split in half,
Mitosis for sociopaths.
Woah- oh. Woah- oh.
Woah- oh. Woah- oh.
Woah, angel’s egg,
A little bit still sticks inside me and a little bit has left.
Woah, angel’s egg,
A world that’s slowly turning, you’d like to see it dead.

So I went to the nearby gas station
To speak to the local drunk and depressed
I didn’t quite understand what they said
It was something about the government,
The sun, and the end.
I came across an insight
I couldn’t quite wrap my head around
And they told me that they’re in need of a leader,
and could I come around on Monday for an interview?
Could you lead the way (Hell naw)
Could you lead the way (Hell naw)
Could you lead the way (Hell naw)
Could you lead the way?
Cause I saw the summer in bloom
And they said it’s coming after you
And I saw the summer in bloom
And they said it’s coming after you
And I went to the nearby gas station
To speak to the local drunk and depressed
I didn’t quite understand what they said
It was something about the universe,
The stars, and the end.

Who are you to say,
That people stay the same?
It’s hard to switch up stuck in the muck
Always getting in the comfort
No fixing me in the hurt
Make me fub so much, i'm a sucker.
A lot of people don’t care
Jus’ lead themselves to die
No care to lead yourself to live a life.
And im always fucking lying,
As if truth i’d confused
The junk that I am turns to junk that I spew.
Too few voodoo demons demons demons
Change the season just right or just wrong
I told you hate is hate is hate,
What is there to appreciate? Is this your definition of fun?
Hope, hope, hoping,
Hoping to resolve
Heed my words that hell is close
Half, half , halving,
We’re all sick of half of something
I want it all- Shit, I want it whole.
Sometimes I feel free,
Sometimes that’s mist to me,
I am falling back into the same old junk.
Sometimes i just wait,
It's how i make all my mistakes,
I make all my mistakes. I make ‘em all at once.
You regret heaven,
From which you came
I hear only bad people calling your name
I thought that you died
A long long time ago,
They don’t make faces like that anymore

All Lights

All lights on me
All lights on me
It's my time to speak
It's my time to speak
I don't know what they’re preaching
I’ve been fighting my demons
I've been living in sequence
with the world I've been seeing
I’ve been punching like pacquiao
I’ve been watching my back now
I’ve been giving out love now
I’ve been learning my stuff now
I’m not thinking of leaving
Staying through changing seasons
I’m in touch with my feeling
I’m not stuck i’m not dreaming
All the lights on me
All the lights on me
All the lights on me
All the lights on me
All the lights on me
All the lights on me
All the lights on me
All the lights on me
Gotta be the good I see
I don't want nothing if I’m wrong
I’m tryna be who I am
I'm not doing it on my own
You don’t need a lot of friends
To make the love you have a home
The way we are makes others jealous
Yea, they won't leave us alone

Flying north
Away from here
Where trees grow tall
On bread and beer
Where seas are warm
They call you home
But you don’t know
Just where to…
Stay with me
Soft and sweet
And let’s grow old
On bread and beer
On bread and beer
When the lord
Ends the war
We will bloom
In your…
Stay with me
Soft and sweet
Near swollen trees
In missing teeth
In missing teeth
Beats the shit out of me
Your wit
Beats the shit out of me
And it starts to get old
Be the pink
Dance with me

I’m gonna break a bone or two
Just to keep arguing with you
They say Neem don’t pick a side
Well I’ve had a few tonight
I’m gonna lose a tooth or two
Just cuz I’ve got things to prove
Oh how ungrateful of me
Oh how…
Oh, love,
Please don’t be long
I am falling out and rotting down
As we speak
So sing a song
This stupid song
Is but a countdown to when
I’ll be so over it so over it agh
I get it
Yeah yeah right I get it
Right right I get it (I get it)
Right right I get it (Yeah I get it)
Leave the door open (I get it)
A reason to strike up a small talk
Something I’ve been waiting for (I get it)
Leave the door open (I get it)
A reason to strike up a… (I get it, yeah, alright, I get it)
I get it no no I get it
Yeah right I get it this time I get it
Right I get it
This time I get it
Oh, love,
How wise you’ve grown
I am freaking out and breaking down
As you speak
I sing a song
This stupid song
Is but a countdown to when
You’ll be so over it so over it yeah
I’m not feeling it
I’m not feeling it
Turn it up a bit
I’m not feeling it
I’m not feeling it
I’m not feeling it
Is this all you got?
(is this all you got?)
(I’m not feeling it I get it
Is this all you got?)

High five, time to talk
Going for a walk
It’s always the same with you
It’s always the same with you
Time is fleeting away
Nothing much to say
It’s all you
I love you
Found a place to hide
You join, I don’t mind
It’s always fun with you
It’s always fun with you
La la la la la
La la la la la
I trust you
I love you
La la la la la la
La la la la la
It’s all you
I love you

Lick

One lick to take the trip, goodbye
A million different words and no need to read em
Disconnected from body and mind
Listening to fake jesuses and pseudo-geniuses
Two licks and now you’re tricked, goodbye
Just as out of mind as is into sight
Deceived by all the pleasures of life
An echoing farce to get behind
One lick to take the trip
Two licks now you’re tricked
One lick to take the trip
Two licks now you’re tricked
Holy water. Holy shit. You should hold me, call it quits
Holy grail. Holy hell. Things so divine you just can’t tell
If it controls you from beyond your head
You’re dead
Take me away,
Some things just never change
Take me away,
Some things just never change
Take me away

You committed a crime, you know
In the legislations it won’t show
But you’ll find justice
The guilt hangs in the middle of your throat
Its you against the you in your talk show
You can always know you’re wrong
Yeah, or no
You’ll never really know
Yeah, or no
It won’t ever show
But it’s always there
The truth is always there
The truth is always there
The truth is always there
Justice, just my passionfruit
I hang the noose, I hang the noose
I’ll push you ‘til I punish you
It’s what I like to do
Faith, and Love
Can’t you see my pride?
I’m trying to change all the time
But I can’t do it
Can’t do it my own way
My own my, my own way
Yeah, or no
It won’t ever show
Yeah, or no
You’ll never really know
Yeah, or no
It won’t ever show
Yeah, or no
You’ll never really know

Have you made a man of me yet
Do you believe you made a man of me yet
Blooming flower, oxygen
Blooming flower, oxygen
I was all but a one of your kind
But it seems I’m not one of a kind
And it seems I deserve to belong
And it seems I deserve to belong
Times were sweet, you called me a friend
What does it take to become a friend
Blooming fire, oxygen
Blooming fire, oxygen

Clever Little Thing
06:55

|
Flesh on my face, I must feel so fuckin lucky
And my heart is on pace, full of blood thats fucking pumping
Swimmin in the waste but I’m not a fuckin guppie
I’ll send all these kids down the wayside
I put school first, no second
I play it cool my brethren
“You ain´t emo if your friends are not in heaven”
That's what punks say to sixth grade minds
I miss my sixth grade life
And i guess I think, I think I coulda done it better
If I wasnt such a kid I would have donned a better sweater
If I wasnt such a kid I’d learn my lessons so right
And stop acting cool for so-and-so types
Now I act in my own way, little influence or so I say
I hear the pain in another's wake
They've got a poor constitution
Pale and thin, like a flake
Can barely sleep, or stay awake
And its all thanks to the weakness of the mind
I hope, I hope, I hope
I wait, I wait, I wait
I hope, I hope, I hope
I hope everything is alright
I hate, I hate, I hate
The game, the game, the game
The game is only true to some
So i am not the only one who thinks this way
In wake, in wake, in wake
You learn to stay the same
You think you are a way
But you never stopped to think its alright
A clever little thing
Will live its whole life
A clever little thing will learn to live in it’s stride
A clever little thing will always keep you in sight
And shit, I'm clever, but I'm not a perfect mind
Oh, tell me pay your dues
Oh, I love you
Oh, I don't feel so blue
Beside your warmth and truth
Oh, say me how do you
Walk by without a clue
Oh you
Oh you
Oh you
Oh you
Aye
I need to keep my pace in check
I keep messing with my faded breath
Hesitate the state I wake in
Calibrate my mind in stasis
Had to make my life so dangerous
Missed the chance to be the safest
Held my hands so high
I likely didnt realize
Hold me tight and hold me right
Clever little thing, I found you
Clever little thing, I found you
Clever little thing, I found you
And I will love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you
Until one of us dies
One of us dies

Paths
01:47

Flowing downstream
Feel the wind
It only happens once in your life
Y’know I can see
All the continents and seas
From up where they have built a house for me
And fall the golden leaves
That’s all you are to me
And a whole world of things
Held and thriving beneath my feet
And when I’ll grow old
Maybe our paths will cross
And you will be older too
We can get a beer or two
At least that’s what I hope we’ll do
That’s what I hope we’ll do
That’s what I hope we’ll do
That’s what I hope we’ll do.
