Green Earth

Every growing thing on this god’s green earth
Always reminds me of you
Leads to me hurt
Makes me feel blue
Curse every growing thing on this place
And if I hate it so much
Then why are you still here
Leave me down there in a pit of mud
Lead me to destruction by my own hand
I will writhe and bellow
Under cloudy skies I howl
Can’t talk my way out of this one
Every growing thing on this god’s green earth
I’m jealous they’re hogging your light
Down in the dirt here where I belong
To my muggy bed I will return
I have had my day in the sun
Too bad it’s over, gotta run

Rats
02:35

Shut the front door
Get the fuck out
Will you be my friend tonight
In an armpit
Or a sewer
Find yourself in a hole in the wall
See your breath in a garbage room
Be left out, be alone tonight
Too drunk, should have walked
No one wants to hang out tonight
Ask the rats to share
Can I bum a beer
Have you got a light
Be my friend tonight

No Heart No Brain

Electroencephalograph is looking pretty negative
Cardiogram same
I'm just looking pretty grim, won't you say
I guess I am
Exactly what you say
Check the brain scan
My aura's whatever colour because I can't see the difference
Immune system rushes to defence
When infringed upon the borders close
You beat your head against the wall

Fucking Idiots
02:39

I am a wreck
Sometimes
Beyond saving
That's true
Pain Of Some Times
It's sick
Shut the fuck up
All of your energy
Is wasted on me
It isn't hard
Let's work
To rock this hard
This out
It's being soft
I've gotta learn
So many people with nothing to say
Contribute nothing but find a way
(Even this part is better
Than anything you've got)

Monsters Grow
01:53
|
|||
Can't all be good ideas
Quantity over quality
Why would you wanna tangle with me
Make me your monster of the week
Yeah you know I'll always lose
But at least I'll look cool
You make my monsters grow
Throw down your magic wand
I'll do whatever you want
Can't all be good ideas
But where's the fun in always winning
A giant monster never stays down
I'll always be back again

There Goes My Song
02:40
|

Wait shit
There it goes now
Alone and headed downtown
Yeah that's it
There goes my song
I heard it but it sounds wrong

Song of the Summer!!!!!
01:15
|
|||
All I want is to be so still
All I want is to be like a pond
Without any ripples, undisturbed
Reflecting the stars when things are clear
And no more sounds will come from me
That's what I call the sound of the summer
Oh yeah well I'm gonna be so still
I'm gonna be so totally chill
I am so fucking calm
I'm gonna practice being so still

VS
02:18

If you choose to fight yourself
You will fight your whole life
Chasing peace out of reach
As long as you go against
Resisting the flow
There you go again
Conflict within
That's why so much conflict without
It’s not me vs you
It’s me vs me vs me vs me vs the universe
No one can be harder
You will eventually forget
I have to catch myself
I’m stuck with who I am
You are not in the moment
Til you look around and see
If you choose to fight yourself
You will fight your whole life
(Go ahead
Kill me)

Act Normal
02:50
|
|||
I said man,
I can't handle this
I'm gonna go and wait outside
I can feel these people staring at me
I'm melting right in front of their eyes
Can't feel my hands and everyone knows
If I get too high sometimes
Just wanna walk around
Don't ask me to act normal
It won't help me calm down
I said I'd never do this again
Thanks for being a real good friend
If this is how I go, there's worse ways to die
I'll be okay after tonight

I found an old quotation
Written on a bookmark
I don't remember where it came from
It said,
"You can have community
But only if it is rooted in myth or error
If you want truth and rationality
You will have to pay for it
with widespread anomie and rootlessness"
I don't want to be so direct
But that's the current moving through my situations
Pounding in my ears
If I can just keep it together
Life is long enough
It just happens too fast
Graded paper comes back circled red
"These are not your words"
What should I say instead
You don't want to hear what I've planned
It's a lot worse
I can try to be eloquent
But sometimes it's not worth it
