SHAME, shame. oh, what a shame. i hope i'm there when your shame sets in. when your shame sets in. safe, safe. oh, so safe. it was supposed to be an easy lay up. and you missed. shame, shame.

IS
02:37
|

IS it you or me? bodies hanging from a pig pole. sacred, scared meat. smoke alarm, no batteries. this is where i say i told you so. last days, lost years. what'd you do? where were you? the world awaits your hot takes. out of touch. money lust. play it safe. world still waits. and when i crack, you'll be the first to know. can't buy goodbyes. is it mutiny? choose one and the others will have to drown, drown, drown. where were you? what'd you do? the world awaits your hot takes. out of touch. money lust. play it safe. have both ways. this is what you were warned about time and time again. don't send me flowers, until i'm dead. rolled my eyes so hard, they fell into my head. don't send me flowers.

GONE
04:20
|

GONE is that man. all his treasures in a can. gone. done. left. gone is that man. not a smile. not a trace. not a tear falls from off of his face. gone is that strife. self-abasement all his life. gone. spent. past. gone is that strife. all the reason. all the bliss. all the trust. and ignorance. not a smile. not a trace. not a tear falls from his face. gone is that man. a crusade without a plan. gone. covered. his tracks. gone is that man. and never looking back.

IF YOU
02:56
|
|||
IF YOU don't know what is coming out of your mouth, keep it shut. if your eyes won't see the forest through the trees, if your ears can't ever hear the deceptions, keep them shut. if all your limbs are wide open for my embrace, keep them shut.

COMMIT TO
02:56
|
|||
COMMIT TO your actions. steer into the skid. the only problems. are all inside of your head. in your head. perpetuate your stonewall. take it all for granted. you move the goal posts. one step forward and two steps back. you move back. do you want it done? or do you want it done right?

THE TRUTH
04:03
|

THE TRUTH lies out there in the shadows. beauty fades into the shade. they're not hiding, but they are covered up. the truth lies and beauty fades. you hit the jackpot on that one. act like you knew it all along. if only these bare walls could talk. the purest art is art that's lost. love with your eyes and be on your separate ways. love with your heart and never part. i don't know, it's thirteenth century poetry; i think i got it wrong. love with your eyes, or love with your heart. you hit the jackpot on that one. act like you knew it all along. if only these bare walls could talk. the purest art is art that's lost. here's why i'm late for everything. i spread myself too thin. led like a kite on a string. i shot myself in the foot. truth lies. beauty fades. that's why i'm late for everything. i've spread myself too thin. the truth lies, the truth lies. and the purest art is art that's lost.
