killing us
01:55
|

graciousness has gone replaced
by accumulating things to waste
bought it broke it
and buy it again
don't waste no time fixing nothing
text yourself a message
we're all doomed
but you're happy with all
your clothes and shoes
it's never enough
when you have too much
it's never enough
your comfort is killing us
lots of games these people play
they change their tune to suit today
it used to be just holidays
where presents matched their selfish ways
everybody's dancing to their death
but you're too busy worried about success
it's never enough
when you have too much
it's never enough
your comfort is killing us
look at my new phone
look at my new shoes
look our kid's new toys
watch us waste this food
got much more tan them
got much more than you
got more than i use
air-conditioned rooms

dressed in coats to the top tied ropes
up and down night
down the side
hand hurt holding tight

not asking
00:56

started their appearing
then came more times than a few
sometimes so nice and friendly
but that ended rather soon
claiming they were coming for calls
based on complaints
that said that we were lucky to not be placed
in restraints
called on their superiors and we
found out on that night
that they done for us a favor
and they surely have the right
to pack up our possessions
and lock them all away
confiscate our puppets
until an unnamed day
we're not asking you to
turn it down
we're telling you
to shut it down
not asking you to
turn it down
we're telling you
to shut it down
there's a puppet show in progress
need assistance really fast
community they're building
put an end to it at last
we don't want these people gathered
closely knit in any way
except inside the prisons
where we take them all way
we don't want them on the corner
this community must stop
we don't want their little
helping hand
must end almighty Opp
we're not asking you to
turn it down
we're telling you
to shut it down
not asking you to
turn it down
we're telling you
to shut it down

constant projecting
01:15
|
|||
i hear and see the way that
you color me
is not a thing like me
i see a dancing little ball of insecurity
and constant projecting
i've kept things you've said to me secretly
but you have kept nothing
and now i know that its you who knows the most
the lie you are living
you use words like
friend and brother
you use them endlessly
you use words like
friend and brother
oh you don't even know
what they mean
my back feels bloody
and you should give back the money
you spent on therapy
never satisfied you're selfish all the time
a friend to nobody
there have been times
that i thought that you were nice
oh what was i thinking
but then you prove that all you do is you
my self i was fooling
you use words like
friend and brother
you use them endlessly
you use words like
friend and brother
oh you don't even know
what they mean

random happenings
01:37
|

over-looking all these things
these
random happenings
but the fact they came to be you see
reveals divinity
each person that you pass
you can miss them just like that
each one a chance an open window
a window to advance
accumulating causes drowning
can't get into things with meaning
if you condense
simplify selecting
you will find a better ending
too many things to do
what do you plan to do?
health, bills, family, work and fun
environment to just name some
these brains aren't functioning
devices running things
how to get to
don't know do you?
lets ask this little plastic thing
accumulating causes drowning
can't get into things with meaning
if you condense
simplify selecting
you will find a better ending
there's a happiness
that's found in emptiness
a way to escape the grasp of hopelessness
it's you who can be saved by you
but victim's how you want to be viewed

this next request
01:35
|
|||
piercing of the breast
to feed this next request
didn't need to go to be gone
relax, watch and respond
killing what they fear
and praise it when it's gone
your heart will either break
or turn to lead
just wait
it's me you'll find
when you decide to change your mind
all the dreams you've set aside
symbolically you've died
accompanied by a note
an absolution plea
losing everything
or everything coming
back at once to show
it's you you do not know
clear and open eyes
this world of you you'll find
you want to do too much
and torture you for not enough
someone else is acting out
what someone else is acting out
ahhhhhhhhhhhh!

sending a package to i don't know who
addressed to the stranger i'm in line next to
beautiful seven
a horse in your heart
a dream coming true
the one you really want
our hands had further fallen apart
sent back from where we came
came back to start
in my heart i'm drawn in two
my heart
i'm drawn by you
in my heart i'm drawn into
my heart
i'm drawn by you
