Straight Out of the Gate
03:55
|

I won't wait
I'm coming straight out of the gate
With another tale of my self-hate
Here comes my dissection
I won't wait
I'm coming straight out of the gate
To say sorry for my mistakes
All result of my brain
And my hate
For me, myself, and I
But I cannot blame it
On the times I've fallen
'Cause I know right from wrong
I'm ashamed
Throw me in a barrel of
All the gasoline we pumped
Or better yet
Send me off to castration
For all the lusty shit i've done
I want to be a warrior
Not a worrier
I want to be a warrior
Not a worrier
I want to be a warrior
Not a worrier
I want to be a warrior
Not a worrier

Industry

I'm not going out
Out without a fight
You can play that trendy shit
I'm here for life
I bleed, I cry
I sing it all
In these songs
But you, you, you, or you
You don't even try
Please go
Back to your old hobbies
This music world's too full of jocks
Well, that's the industry
You tell 'em how hard you've worked
Or just how far you got
But six months have passed
Since you first learned to play guitar
If you're the king of underground,
Underground's above ground
The kind of music made to feel has died
'Cause you're a snide
Save it for the internet
They're all you've got
And you, you
You continue to
Your two-faced moves
I almost feel bad for you
But you're just a dude
Just move through
If you swoon, make room
To hear me croon
The cool kids rise again
This time, with their music
But they don't really love this shit
They have no bruises
You think longevity
But just actually
You're living in your Indie-Rock
Fantasy

Hand
05:17

I won't lay a
I won't lay a
Hand
On my kids
On my kids
Fuck that
I won't live to
I won't live to
Follow my family's past
I grew up
And I saw some shit
I cannot find a way
To forget
Yes, to forgive
All that I saw
Through my friends
And my experience
Moms and dads don't do this
Mom, I love you
Dad, you got work to do
I love you too
With my experience
My ex-therapist
Said all my problems were stemmed from this event:
I was molested
Was molested
When I was six
Guilt and shame
Myself to blame
No more, I change that all today
I've wasted my whole life
On phallocentric addiction
Now I have really changed
I've done away
Completely
I want to be
Everything you thought I was
I've wasted my whole life
With invisible police of mind
Feeling compelled
To wash my
Hand
Or repeat myself
'Til I get it right
Thinking itself
Is a pain
Then, I feel compelled to chase
Find out what it means
It's the disease
Messages misfiring
From head to feet
I'm suffering
Hurting myself
Is a way
To feel some kind of relief
From what I see
It don't got nothing
To do with neat
Try morality
It's called this:
OCD
It don't got nothing
To do with neat
Try morality
It's called this:
OCD

Better Man
01:40
|

What I thought I knew
I didn't even know
I had to read a book
To learn the ropes
Of the disease I have
I was born with it
Now I must learn
To manage it
These days making music is even a chore for me
What with my circuitry
I ritualize
And repeat
Then, the thought to kill myself
But on the other hand
I'll put in all the work and be a better man

What I Deserve
03:19
|

Take my hand, we're not that far along
I know we can make this last
But hey, where you going now?
I don't really want you to go
I'll take what I deserve
Take my word, it won't be like before
I know I made you hurt
With "hey what you wearing now?
Better not be wearing that shirt"
How fucking insecure
I validate, it's only the least I can do for you
And that's the bare minimum
I had fooled you into thinking I was a good guy
You deserve so much more than this from me now
That's all I want you to know

All the Time
02:50
|
|||
I never thought I'd make you cry
And now I do it all the time
I filled you up with lies
I wasted your time
I betrayed you
And act like
Nothing happened to you
Like it was my right
Being a guy
Fuck all this "being a guy" shit
Fuck all this "use your eyes"
It's still a lie
I should've known it wasn't right
If I had to find ways to lie
I fucked up your mind
I did it all the time
I didn't love you like you loved me
I didn't trust you, I thought you'd cheat
I didn't love you like you loved me
I project my insecurity
I didn't love you like you loved me
I was wrong, you sure showed me
I didn't love you like you loved me
Nathalie, I'm sorry

Smokey

Smokey in
The cage tonight
And he's a little baby
He is just a little baby
He didn't know
All the love
Or what he meant to me
He was just the sweetest guinea

Tomorrow
02:27
|
|||
My days turn into years
My mother stares down on my casket
And I'm just passing by my headstone
It's my last visit for a long while
If I don't try I might never know
What could be of my full potential
Tomorrow, we'll never know
Who we are when the morning comes
Who will we be tomorrow?
Who will we be next year?
Who will we be tomorrow?
Who will we be next year?
Who will we be tomorrow?
Who will we be next year?
Who will we be tomorrow?
Who will we be next year?
