u disrespect ur vices
ur always in a crisis
ur problems are the whitest
ur so uptight & oh so self righteous
always pushing for a breakdown
stretched the truth & it's so fake now
hopeless romantic // a self indulgent clown
exploiting ur problems for clout in shit town
u lived to tell the tale
told every little detail
ur soul is sold // stories for sale
it's so sad & so stale
white man in duress
he weeps & wails
go ahead & do another rail
& please tell us lowly Injuns
how the system set u up to fail
cause ur so interesting

CHARITY CASE
01:38
|
|||
|
I'm goin out
don't know if ill be back
so don't keep a light on
I’m headstrong,
i'm absolutely cracked
& I don't wanna be
ur charity case anymore
u can't trap me for too long
inside a memory
if u want us to get along
then please let me free
i dont wanna be
a charity case anymore

hold me like a child
a useless, deadbeat child
or just leave me for the dogs
ill do just fine in the wild
ill sleep it off
in the shed
hear a creep cough
he wants me dead
dry summer,
i'll sleep in the riverbed instead
total bummer
can’t sleep w all the noise in my head
it takes a village
to keep me sane
life is a killer
& im fighting for my life
against the killer brain
& i feel nothing
but the pain
u know im not all there
im the one they want to kill
nobody’s playing fair
am i just mentally ill..?
do u care about me..?
will u care about me still
if things are going well
& im just mentally ill?

ABOLISH THE PUNK ELITE
00:55
|
|||
|
ur creating division, ur sewing discord
it's because ur boring
not because ur bored
u don't break rules, u make rules
a bunch of fucking cops,
nob gobblers & tools
abolish the punk elite
the secretly rich
oversaturating the street
creating a scene
that they can gatekeep
desperate for attention
prone to conceit
a cult, a circle jerk,
the thriving obsolete
I just wanna play music..
life's too fukin short
for all this other shit

cause I lost the one who can give me
the unconditional love of a mothers hug
she choked on her blood
blood filled up her lungs
I run for the unconditional love
of elusive drugs
but
*oh me, oh my,
I don't wanna die*
every time a junkie laments
an old potbelly angel shrugs
naked, withdrawling in a sleeping bag
& im soaked in rancid chemical sweat
withdrawling from my medicine
yes, theyre the worst withdrawls yet.. doc
I'm a blight upon sore eyes
half cut, adorned in severed ties
haven't eaten since last sunday nite..
teen burger w coke & fries
just another fucked up wednesday
I made it thru today
but I might die tomorrow
it doesn't matter anyways
my time in this body is borrowed

FULL BLOODED INJUN NARC
02:02
|
|||
|
we know u fuck the system
we caught u w ur pants down
seat at the kids table
u think it's ur big break now
full blooded injun narc
sell ur ppl out
cause that's just who u are
making good money
yt ppl got u writing reports
& u have faith in their system
non violent, taking it to court
full blooded injun narc
light up some sage in a company car
I don't wanna be a lonewolf
I don't wanna be an outsider
why can't u see
that u don't need to live like them
to be a provider
do u rly think u are
ur ancestors wildest dream come true..?
that the youth
won't know the truth
that u only did wuts best for u..?

HOMESTRETCH
02:00
|
|||
|
all i need is the unconditional love
of everyone around me at all times
& just one more chance
to reach my prime
burnt out & faded
i’ve grown jagged inside
recall my halcyon nites
reclaim my living daylights
we are still worthy of unseen heights
we’re on the homestretch
spending most days just riding it out
cause there’s no cure for
the feelings we catch
i feel like it’s too late for me
all I need's just one more chance
to reach my prime
burnt out & faded
am I still on ur mind..?

SECRETS, PROMISES & DEBT
03:09
|
|||
|
I'm surrounded by
upstanding citizens
who'd report a crime,
that's only a crime
because everything is property
& they've commodified our time
story on my skin,
book on my belly
my body alone won't tell u where I've been
no matter how smelly...
have u seen my friends?
entities endlessly shuffling
in madhouse walls
I can't tell u how it all ends,
gotta squint to see my cock n balls
I've got the perfect secret
I know every little trick
dont forget that's a threat
& that's a promise
but time is running out
space is full of shadow & doubt
time is running out
no matter how u measure it

WAYWARDNESS
04:16
|
|||
|
i want to trust u because i love u
& after all maybe im the rat that i smell
but spend enough time alone
& only nightmares will come true
the past two weeks have been a living hell
waywardness
something about today feels like the end of all time
i guess i was just raised this way..
to carry the weight of my fathers crimes
(of his fathers crimes
of his fathers crimes
of his fathers crimes)
of a two bit criminal who left it all behind..
waywardness
it’s all coming down, time for self sabotage
blend back into this town like a threatening mirage
never had a home just different places to hide
way down in the riverbed where my innocence died
I let u in just to let u out
let ur hand go but dont forget me now
u watch me get buried in the crowd
i watched u get buried in the ground
come with me & ill show u where my innocence died
