Twelve Months 04:28
lyrics
Verse 1: Twelve fucking months And I’ve got more from a shirt With the fall of this empire Funds a new show I’ve got clothes to the ceiling And I’m stressed for some work If you want cash for assets You’d best have some from birth Ay Ay-yay-yay-yay Ay-yay-ay Oh, ay-yay Restless, bad dreaming And I’m dressed for the worst I’ve been caught in a landslide Of falsehoods and dirt Chorus: Heaven’s gone insane, and I think I’ve gone insane too How it’s just the same, and I think I’ve grown a damn fool Yeah, I walk, but the mud’s now caught my shoe Yeah, heaven’s gone insane, and I think I’ve gone insane too How it’s just the same, and I think I’ve grown a damn fool Yeah, I walk, but the mud’s now caught my shoe. Verse 2: Twelve fucking months And I’ve got less than a shirt With the fall of this empire Funds the same show With the lease up, I’m leaving I’ve gotta find a new home The full size of a shoebox And with holes like there’s gnomes Ay Ay-yay-yay-yay Ay-yay-ay Oh, ay-yay Restless, bad dreaming And I’m dressed for the worst I’ve been caught in a landslide Of falsehoods and dirt Chorus: Heaven’s gone insane, and I think I’ve gone insane too How it’s just the same, and I think I’ve grown a damn fool Yeah, I walk, but the mud’s now caught my shoe Yeah, heaven’s gone insane, and I think I’ve gone insane too How it’s just the same, and I think I’ve grown a damn fool Yeah, I walk, but the mud’s now caught my shoe. [Solo] Chorus: Heaven’s gone insane, and I think I’ve gone insane too How it’s just the same, and I think I’ve grown a damn fool Yeah, I walk, but the mud’s now caught my shoe Yeah, heaven’s gone insane, and I think I’ve gone insane too How it’s just the same, and I think I’ve grown a damn fool Yeah, I walk, but the mud’s now caught my shoe. (chants): Sit down, shut up Better suck it all up Get up, get down Twist your hand around, ‘round Head down, head down, Move it til you’re dead, now

lyrics
First things first I’m jaded My thoughts are like a blot I’m never sated, and yeah it burns a lot Yeah, it burns a lot Second part’s more I hate cuz How it swirls inside Churns out a seed that Rots within the eye Rots within the eye Third cour’s worst, It fades and strays straight from the sight I’m scared, I’m fucked I writhe inside my mind Writhe inside my mind Need a monkey paw wave to change the system, system Sucking all the blood til the cup runs, cup runs Drooling like a bear who’s seen a fish up the stream Yeah, I’m tired of feeding the hands who make the big bombs, big bombs, uh God come and save me from myself Joe come and save me from myself Vlad come and save me from myself Jeff come and save me, yeah Head spinning, I’m slipping One’s hour’s my whole savings Been driven, my mission Is the star-spangled dream that the brown kids are sipping Need a monkey paw wave to change the system, system Sucking all the blood til the cup runs, cup runs Drooling like a bear who’s seen a fish up the stream Yeah, I’m tired of feeding the hands who make the big bombs, big bombs, uh You’re an ass, Mr. Dressed Keep it all, puff your chest Count the stacks, fuck us up Go to bed, puff your chest You’re an ass, Mr. Dressed Keep it all, puff your chest Count the stacks, fuck us up Go to bed, puff your chest You’re an ass, Mr. Dressed Keep it all, puff your chest Count the stacks, fuck us up Go to bed, puff your chest You’re an ass, Mr. Dressed Keep it all, puff your chest Count the stacks, fuck us up Go to bed, puff your chest You’re an ass, Mr. Dressed Keep it all, puff your chest Count the stacks, fuck us up Go to bed, puff your chest You’re an ass, Mr. Dressed Keep it all, puff your chest Count the stacks, fuck us up Go to bed, puff your chest

lyrics
Verse 1: Listen up my dear Solitary fears Nothing left for us Baby girl, won’t you hold my hand? Alone I cannot stand Nothing left us to see Verse 2: The catcher’s grave was set for Half a year, the slightest chance of rain My early days were set in Half a year, the suburbs and mundane Who will step up? Who will stop this whole parade? Who will step up? Who will stop this whole charade? Chorus: La la-la-la la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la La la-la-la la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la La la-la-la la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la La la-la-la la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la Verse 3: You’re what I need, but not what I wanted I would have sailed if I could go farther You’re what I need, but not what I wanted I would have sailed if I could go farther too I would have sailed if I hadn’t met you I would have sailed if I hadn’t met you (I would have sailed without you) Chorus: La la-la-la la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la La la-la-la la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la La la-la-la la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la La la-la-la la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la La la-la-la la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la La la-la-la la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la Post-Chorus: The catcher’s grave was set for Half a year, the slightest chance of rain My early days were set in Half a year, the clockwork cannot change

Dimly 02:55
lyrics
Alone with the moon, I see below too Alone with the moon, I see the light go Dimly, dimly, dimly, dimly…. One day, I brim, sing the songs Next day, I spill like a drunk One day I bloomed, opened up These days I gray, petal dust Slowly, I looked into the sunshine to see That it ain’t true, ain’t true It all just stopped with you, just you Now it’s dimming, dimming, dimming, dimming… Mirror man, why don’t you look at me? I thought, after all of this time we’d be a team How I strayed from the gates of paradise If you wanted to come, I’ve room, so let’s Go… go... go... go… go…

Homewrecker 03:42
lyrics
Lately I’ve been feeling alone I’ve been running into ghosts I’ve want you in my tow But far away Lately, I’ve been feeling alone I’ve been driving down the coast Nights gone, roaming no signal But far away And I go, somewhere I can’t see And I go, somewhere I can be Free Free Free Free Homewrecker, homewrecker Homewrecker, homewrecker Homewrecker, homewrecker Homewrecker, homewrecker Lately, I’ve been at a low I’ve been lost in the unknown I want you in my tow But far away Lately I’ve been at a low I’m out searching for a throne Don’t cry, God you’re not alone But far away And I go, somewhere I can’t see And I go, somewhere I can be Free Free Free Free Homewrecker, homewrecker Homewrecker, homewrecker Homewrecker, homewrecker Homewrecker, homewrecker I want your love I want your pain I couldn’t help It’s all the same I want your love I want your pain I couldn’t help It’s all the same I want your love I want your pain I’m so fucked up It’s all the same

After all After all How the gnats came swarming around you How the marrow came gurgling and out of you Light comes down God makes sound Light weighs down God makes sound I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t I didn’t

Local Crest 02:28
lyrics
At the close They’re above my head I made it to My local crest Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh At the close I did my best I waded through For my mother’s quest Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh Rivers rolled beside my feet But waterfalls just up ahead, ahead Spent some figures with my weeks But forty years reduced to bread, bread? At the close They’re above my head After swimming through The trench’s depths Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh
