Finger in the air to see where the wind is blowing
Now virtue is declared and membership is showing
Brought to bare a singularity cause I’m so alone
I see you say you can’t believe it…so don’t
You gutless fucks
Did me dirty
Betrayed by a base that I thought was sturdy
You gutless fucks
Did me dirty
Banished from the land without judge or jury
Did me dirty
Preserve the herd animals
Don’t step out of line
We’ll take your head off at the shoulder with a dangling spine
Not interested to hear the facts of the matter
Too excited for a target for the snipers to splatter

Ex / Sanguinated
02:20
|
|||
Blood born by these sick emotions
Burned by its own hematosis
Care disparaged, joy supplanted
Mismatched donors cause more damage
Ex / Sanguinated
And I hate it
Ex / Sanguinated
And I’m hated
We were supposed to be forever
|

3. |
||||
It’s a slow burning hurricane
Love suspended in acid rain
Helping hands have turned serrated
Minefields left undemarcated
I can’t do this anymore
Vague chaos
Crawling through a metaphor
Vague chaos
I can’t do this anymore
Vague chaos
Crawling through a metaphor
Vague chaos
Unspoken arrangements, unclear motives
Gray communiques left still encoded
Can’t continue the journey if the map keeps changing
Return to the safety of disengagement

Replaced with Ashes
03:21
|
|||
Won’t you be my flailing savior?
Yet to discover my bad behavior
Don’t know why the sign of my grasp is
The shape of the thing replaced with ashes
Replaced with ashes
Go in with the greatest care
Come out with naught but despair
Can’t discern why it all dissolves
Every time I am involved
This time I won’t ruin it
Every piece a perfect fit
Tried to preserve preciousness
Ended up with a bigger mess

Penicillin
04:02
|
|||
Avoidably poisoned by a walking werevirus
Cling to humanness, but the disease is inside us
Sapien skin cloaking chemical violence
Betrayed by the sway of these Pontius Pilates
You need a beast
You need a villain
You need to be
Penicillin
Monster manufacturer
Counter-killing Lazarus
To leave the hive unimmunized
While privatized is hazardous
Exposed on the slab
Thoroughly dissected
Entrails open to the sun, but never disinfected
More concentrated pain than I can endure
Evicted the sickness, but killed by the cure

Stomach Acid
02:39
|
|||
I finally see I fell in love with a facet
Flushed into the Phantom Zone with stomach acid
Overstated undertones no matter what I said

Blacklist Impact
03:10
|
|||
Cropped out of reality
He Who Shan’t Be Name
Cause the height of criminality
Is not to play the game
Unapproved existence, added to the blacklist
Knocked from social circles like a psychic back fist
Can’t retract blacklist impact
You broke the contract
Delete the contact
Delete the contact
Construct a paper scapegoat
Slowly set it aflame
Cause height of virtuosity’s
To elongate the game
Elevated death risk
Added to the blacklist
Slicing social circles like a Gordian exorcist

Shale Impaled Failure
02:33
|
|||
Nerves still raw and
Skin still peeling
Weeping through the wounds
While I wait to start healing
Regress to progress
Solitude relearned
Scarred by char where the flesh was burned
Tear it from my chest in the next five seconds
Throw it, duck and cover to avoid the wreckage
Impaled by the shale of shrapnel of my heart
Left without a family, friends or counterparts
Left without a family, friends or counterparts
Impaled by the shale of shrapnel of my heart
Hardening the soft remains
Buried truth is ascertained
Ego to stone, organs ossified
Scrying for the second where the hope had died

Ideating
03:38
|
|||
Gone gone gone
The form of all of my functions
Left with a methane mess and a terminal compunction
Once far fetched now forging a necessity
Better shut it down before they take the rest of me
Ideating
Can’t quell the quiet craving
It’s not a video game
You people ruined my life
Online with no spine
Just gunning for likes
All I ever wanted was to feel something like love
And now I’ll stop my heart with a giant bag of drugs

Leftism Is Bad
03:22
|
|||
Human beings are not the Borg
Do the most work for the biggest reward
Throw notions of oppression out the window
Or reside in guided limbo
Leftism is bad
