Nutrient Outlaws
02:35
|

|
LYRICS:
once its out in the open they'll get out the rakes
the drunk renegade soldiers are claiming their stake
as all the silver toothed land sharks jumped in a lake
can they really get to it?
will they really see through it?
when the amphetamine driver calls them a fake
strange nutrient outlaws work out at home
she trades sensual pictures for counterfeit loans
and all the celibate rock stars can't catch them alone
somebody new wants to dance
somebody new wants to dance
somebody new wants to step off of the throne

Showin' em Somethin'

LYRICS:
well what is that happening inside now
they're showin em' something
the reality just can't hide now
they're showin him something new
and he's got a pain in his stomach
they're showin em' somethin
but didn't you know she just loves it
it's everything to you
well you're a perfect soul in a cruel harsh world that we're all stuck in
but i don't like your colors, your ideas and your new production too
because you were such a pure and true kid
you really knew something
and they didn't grow up like you did
with those posters in your room
you like to walk around and talk about things that you used to do
and this psychology and tribal thought could never apply to you
i'm just into things that they told me
start shown me somethin'
i can't seem to process this old thing
start shown me something new
and now the memories are stored away too late to salvage
and i don't like this certain catalyst for your nostalgic truth
so who's in the right generation they're
showin me something
i'm longing for disintegration
of all your divides and rules
and now i picked apart the parts i like from all the tone trees
am i betraying something leading to another lonely view

Subterranean
02:37
|
|||
|
LYRICS:
sophomoric invisible bathroom scrawls
parasitic projections in a plastic ball
for your home made 4th wall in berlin
inherited depression and the endless immortal sins
you told me about the sky but what about the subterranean
I see the great design but what about the part that's under the skin
it keeps on living in a penthouse while the basement is covered in mildew
then I step away and say I could be subterranean too
go surf on the ocean floor someday
empty headed freedom is the smartest way
or it will steer me to a cul de sac
packed bags and lemonade by an abandoned railroad track
you told me about the sky but what about the subterranean
I see the great design but what about the part that's under the skin
I keep on living in a penthouse while the basement is covered in mildew
then I step away and say I could be subterranean too

Minefield
02:43
|
|||
|
LYRICS:
it's gonna be a minefield
I'm gonna get my brain peeled
triggered by sensations
testing out my patience
and my head will be on fire even when she's gone
it keeps me on my feet there's no
time to be discreet
I never should have agreed to the
it's gonna be a minefield
danger under every step of my heels
there's gonna be explosions
I gotta watch my toes in
the wide outdoor space where she put the bombs
and it keeps me in the air
there's no time to say what's there
i never could have compared to the
and it keeps me on my feet there's no
time to be discreet
I never should have agreed to the
it's gonna be a minefield
igniting all my deep feels
the weakness in my souls breath
is gonna have a fun death
and it's just another part of the great beyond
but i never should have run when i couldn't walk
and i'll know how to avoid all the mines i saw

Tangibility
02:34
|
|||
|
LYRICS:
tangibility kills your ability to bow to the cosmos
can you make the most of your time
sacred geometry kills the autonomy
to live in the chaos
creativity in the vacuum of your mind
vengeful hierarchy infiltrates the economy
predatory creatures in your view
can they tangibly put their thoughts on you
familiarity caused a disparity in the perceptions
does it really feel what they mean
laws of entropy caused a discrepancy in the reflections
tangibility is revolting all the time

Big Pier
01:57
|
|||
|
LYRICS:
saw my way through the alley of space on the way to the gutter of time
worked my way till the structure collapsed goin forward on a vertical line
don't know why it's gotta be that way, as the expectations destroy
all of your systems and theories and plans another way to keep the sickness employed
that's why i'm stuck here that's why i live here that's why i'm haunting where it wants me to thrive
another truck steers towards a big pier because because ghosts suspect i might not survive
they line me in row and they tell me what to do and they tell me not to live in a hive
drive me back to the city in space and they tell us not to go for a ride
undercover in a mafia den with a cellophane face mask i found
wallkin into the magical space but the chosen ones don't want me around
that's why i'm stuck here that's why i live here that's why i'm haunting where it wants me to thrive
another truck steers towards a big pier because because ghosts suspect i might not survive

|
LYRICS:
hey yeah keep it real
hey yeah watch your feels
oh yeah here's the scoop
you're gonna get caught in a psychic loop
hey man lack of sleep
hey man you're a creep
yah man lost the group
you're gonna get caught in a psychic loop
hey hey fear and pain
hey hey comfort train
not much left to say
gonna get stuck in a demon's sway
hey girl same routine
hey girl empty dreams
yeah girl endless hoop
you're gonna get stuck in a psychic loop
hey hey you can't wait
overcompensate
future past on a plain
gonna get trapped in a mental drain
hey I are you stuck
in another rut
problem with the truth
might just be caught in a psychic loop
might just be caught in a psychic loop

On the Block
02:41
|
|||
|
LYRICS:
well here I am on the block
whatcha think of that baby?
you gotta go where she wants you to go and she wants you to go to the block
you gotta show what he wants you to show and he wants you to join with the flock
It's the square root of 75 and it don't always jive when i talk
doves will say it's what keeps them alive as they settle the score with the hawks
you gotta grow where you just gotta grow and he wants you to grow on the block
a misshapen malformed mistake like a puddle of mud in a sock
crystalizing out of chaos and love with a rotating sense as they walk
children pray as they live for the day and the new ways to play with the blocks
you can see all the bricklayers fighting for a spot
and they know that the way to heaven to square off the things they've been taught
you gotta do what you just gotta do and and it just has to be on the block
you'll accrue or you're gonna get sued for your secular time on the clock
and if you break away from the squares you can find a new beautiful box
try to see a new way to be free as I desperately grab at the lock

Sitting Alone at Night
02:24
|
|||
|
LYRICS:
come on now take a special ride
as your own lonely personal guide
it's a one of a kind delight
sittin alone at night
no desire to love or fight
don't care about acting right
eat drink and stare at the light
sittin alone at night
there's nothing else I would rather do this evening
than lay in bed and stare at the ceiling
and once in a while glance over at the wall
don't really want no one else around at all
summer sun is way too bright
crowds of people make me uptight
stay at home take a mental flight
sittin alone at night
no need to cheat or lie
make up my own rallying cry
if you could see it, it would be a sight
me sittin alone at night
I could watch a movie if i feel a little crazy
put some music on if I'm not feeling too lazy
my social life is about disintegrated
cause the outside world is way too complicated
sit at home and wonder why
living in a narcissistic lie
wallow in my existential fright
sittin alone at night
it's because my mind's a mess
it's because i'm unimpressed
try to have a life as i might
sittin alone at night
sittin alone at night
maybe life is finally right
sittin alone at night
sitting alone at night
sittin alone at night

Good Enough
03:58
|
|||
|
LYRICS:
then there was a scene
where i could play and dream
was i ever really seeing
underground enigmas for the sake of the being
the smoke faded out that evening
better but still worse than before
right now it's all so freeing
tomorrow they'll want a little more
it's happy, but It's not tough
i showed them, they called my bluff
it's better but still a little rough
it's good enough
maybe i'm just lazy or
i don't mind settling for less
watching the bugs hit the sneeze guard
watching the suckers get obsessed
it's happy, but It's not tough
i showed them, they called my bluff
it's better but still a little rough
it's good enough

Special Forces
01:54
|
|||
|
LYRiCS:
still the force it's kept me stuck there, like a magnet stagnant mud steer
and the curse it got me stopped me, royalty has locked me knocked it down
is the free will all within we, can it still now be a skin teeth
in the valley like a mirror, wild stallions can they hear me out
play your game just like a screen king, feel the shame just like a real thing
special forces keeps me back there, is it fate or is it lack of care
