Cut and Run 04:54
Hold my hand Clear the path Don’t know where I’ll go Days drag on Years go fast Then you’re in your hole How that tie Tie that binds How it comes undone Ears closed up Eyes go blind Spite destroys the son Now you’ve cut and run Wondering what I’ve done No longer a son Time moves on It wont wait Last years laid to waste A sad end Once was great Don’t know where I’ve gone

She had me out from the night before We did it all then I wanted some more Had no I idea what she was trying to say All her words were fallen in graves And then she told me a different story A fucked up wasted blaze of glory I had to take it on the chin again Got so fucked up I don't know where to begin Had no idea where I wanted to crash I shaved it all but I kept the moustache I get so high on rejection I find myself all derelict I look into reflections I get so high on rejection Ya we standing outside of a church Just looking for a soul to search She was good looking but he was a mess I don’t know who we were trying to impress And now she’s telling me a different story what A cracked up, wasted blaze of glory I had to pretend I was sane again Spent the whole night in an old waistband I felt the pressure of moving on Was handed notes but I thought I would run I get so high on rejection I find myself all derelict I look into reflections I get so high on rejection

Doomsday 03:58
You found another reason to run and hide Congrats on all the stats being on your side If it’ll make ya feel better Just stick to the weather Just stickin’ your head in the sand Just another doomsday Just another Tuesday Just another broken plan

I can see what you got in mind It kinda makes a guy bitter You’ve been locked out from inside And it looks like bad weather There's no need to run and hide I will only see you better I can do what ever you mind Just as long as you ditch me I don’t care if I go blind It just means you ain’t ugly I can see that we’re doing time And it looks like there’s no key Ten Fold the Eyesore and you’re getting on Nobody wants more so you should go home Ten Fold and no joke Sinking ship and bones Everybody knows you’re the flavour now I can see what you got in mind It kinda makes a guy bitter You’ve been locked out from inside And it looks like bad weather I can see what you got in mind It kinda makes a guy bitter Ten Fold the Eyesore and you’re getting on Nobody wants more so you should go home Ten Fold and no joke Sinking ship and bones Everybody knows you’re the flavour now I fall far away from I can see what you got in mind It kinda makes a guy bitter You’ve been locked out from inside And it looks like bad weather

Baby I'm alone in my room. Baby you don't come 'round no more. Baby I'm alone in my room. Baby you don't come 'round no more. You don't set your foot in the door.

I got no time to figure it out I do not care what it's about I don't know what they'll have to say tomorrow They didn't need me anyway Now were crashing close to hell Fell it like a miracle Lavender in the afternoon Holding out for something new You get yours and i'll get mine There will be no one left behind I don't care what they have to say tomorrow We didn't need them anyway Now were crashing close to hell Fell it like a miracle Lavender in the afternoon Holding out for something new

Demographic 03:29
And in the aftermath We think about the hands that clap And reward us for good behavior You can pick and choose your savior now Know your demographic Know your demographic Know your demographic And in the lights that flash We followed all that dirty cash That rewards us for bad behavior Try to savior all that changed ya Outside the looking glass The world has changed The times got fast We all sit and figure that it's all the same But then reality Can seem so sweet On blended knee But That's not where we wanna be We all got fat And in the afterglow We follow through with things we know Those crooked bones that break so slow and change ya baby, they try to make you whole Know your demographic Know your demographic Know your demographic Outside the looking glass The world has changed The times got fast We all sit and figure that it's all the same But then reality Can seem so sweet On blended knee But That's not where we wanna be We all got fat

Who are we fooling if not ourselves Try to measure the lord We can fall on the empty shells Well I could not take no more I could not take no more Now we're running like we never did Cocaine hell-hole apocalypse We don't need it never did We don't need it never did Ooo this life Will make you drown Floating like an angel to the ground It's this empty world That were given Love lying by your side Now we're face down on the lane All the birds they pick your brain All the joy you can’t contain I’ll avoid you all the same Ooo this life Will make you drown Floating like an angel to the ground It's this empty world That were given Love lying by your side We shared a laugh We fought the animals Walked between the silence and the room We shared it all We left them wanting more What the hell did we do it for That's life

I'm eating all the fruit flies that swarm around my head Look who's knockin' but can't come in Every time I milk her I get kicked in the face Look who's knockin' but can't come in I wish I had some money so I could buy this joint Look who's knockin' but can't come in Hold back my tears till you get to the point Look who's knockin' but can't come in Look who's knockin' but can't come in And every time I milk her I get kick in the face Look who's knockin' but can't come in And every time I knock it I get kicked out my place Look who's knockin' but can't come in Look who's knockin' but can't come in

Camouflage 03:42
I've been hiding out Stashing all my guns and ammo Waiting for the end You can't see me in my camo- flaaaaaaaage They have got me tracked Follow me wherever I go Some kind of implant I can see that this won't end well
11.
Now I’m running like a bug on the side walk I put’em in check then I fall on my face They don’t know it but im leading the way I got some alternate plans and they got nothing Now I’m blowing like a broken nose I’m a negative ten and I lost three toes I’m a preacher from a broken state Just another clown w a serious face Now it’s kinda getting out of control I got my head in a hole with some arrogant lowlifes I hear the music but I wish it was static or maybe 'Automatic for the People' I know eventually it won’t mean that much to me Exiled from ecstasy, distance from enemies But for now I’ll just spit in the wind Cuz I’m allergic to gin and it might be the juniper I’m going home
