I just wanna change every thought that goes through my head
but i can not change it, I said,
I'm sorry about everything i can't contain
My heart is beating like a drum,
but i'd rather beat everyone
I'm angry cannot help this fire in me
my heart is a symbol of destructioon
i'm tired of ignoring all the action
i could be a part of it instead
i'm screaming on the inside of my body
but really screaming on the inside of an airplane,
every passenger staring at my face
I don't understand how to change
any part of my stupid brain
i'm fighting every day to keep myself sane
I wish I had the money to
talk to somebody I know who
could help me figure out my existential pain
everyday i'm suffering the same mistake
i'm sorry that I never got a better grade
on topics that are thrown up and all over the place
I'm screaming on the inside of my body
but really screaming on the inside of an airplane
every passenger staring at my face
oh, at my face
and I don't wanna change the way
everybody says hello to me
and I don't wanna make it seem like i'm okay
with never understanding why I feel
the way I feel today or how I feel at all
Apologizing every single fucking way
I'll never find a better way to say those thing
that common terminology that
fixes everything
I'm screaming on the inside of my body
but really screaming on the inside of an airplane
every passenger staring at my face
Oh, at my face

Fade To Black

i usually would stop
cause i dont wanna be this way
i would have to drop
all of these intrepid games
all over the floor
scratches and then bloody handprints
all over the door
symphonies of blood and gore
and when i was young
i would stand over the grass
hand on my heart
feel the summer breeze move past
wind in my hair and through the terribble and brash
could i have been a better that
i usually would quit
think of an annoying quip
seventeen and sad
super fucking mad
caricature dreams
bleeding into me
throwing up a stream
drinking on the scene
and i am getting older
and getting way more sad
secretively stuffing all my problems in a bag
cut my arm off to the bone and then i would brag
could i have been a better that
fade to black
then my power came back from out of nowhere
i was feelin alright
the giant storm inside of me had thundered all night
my arms and legs had switched their places and i wasnt me
i crawled on all four of my limbs yeah all my hands and feet
and then i ran i ran i ran from the man that had chased and screamed
i yelled i yelled i yelled for everybody that id seen
i tried i tried to break the spell that had come over me
but there was no way to get out of this entire thing

American Spirit

I'll buy another pack because im scared
Anxious blushing boy with wire scratch pads in my hair
Ruffle them and cut them with your air
Filled with toxic comets, blowing out all of my organs
I'm on fire
On the inside I'm a boiling bubbling baby boy
I get tired
I'm exhausted due to nervous uncomfortability
With no understanding
And I'll try and make it clear just how i feel
But my feelings are a burden though you had the chance to burn them
Twice now have you left me in the wind
Blowing me back harder than you'd ever blown at all
I'm on fire
And my heart is homeless with no gasoline
I get tired
There's no solitude no compromise for me
I live disbelief
And I will push back all forth back and forth
Keeping noise around so i dont hear you anymore
Medicate myself when I'm awake
Skip out on my health and all the chances I should take
I'm on fire
And emotions break through glass walls you can't see
I get tired
there is nothing I can do to help you see
We look right through me

Dead Boy Lullaby
02:38
|

|
Will I keep on writing songs
When im sad and sick in bed
Because i have nothing else
I can offer you instead.
But my hatred and my arc
May contemplate in verse
And when i have found myself
I will know how bad it hurts
To be alive
I'd rather die
To wonder why
I'm still alive
Theres a hundred more like me
Drowning in this giant open sea
I wanna believe that out there theres one unique
When my body turns to ash
And everything I know has burned and crashed
I will make believe
That it's not because of me

Somebody Like Me

I just wanna be looked at
The way that i look at
Other people
In relationships i
Know that
It wont be like that
And that is sad.
I wish I could change it.
Forget about it
Not have to feel it
Not have to see it
Im just a poor boy
I need no sympathy not me.
And maybe its the way you smile
But youre a heart throb to me
I could never see you with someone like me.
And maybe its the way you close your eyes
And smirk that way baby
I could never see you with somebody like me
I never sing many love songs
I dont like love songs
I think theyre cliche and a cheap ass play rob
I hope i can take that
And shove it down deeply, securely.
I never wanted to hurt you,
But i found a new dude
Someone i like who could
Possibly like me too and i
Know you
Feel so betrayed oh yeah you do
And maybe its the way you smile
But youre a heart throb to me
I could never see you with someone like me.
And maybe its the way you close your eyes
And smirk that way baby
I could never see you with somebody like me

No Such Thing
03:02
|

|
There's no such thing as love in this world
That's not a real power
I dont believe that anyone
Could ever pick that flower
And i dont mean to discourage you
I dont mean to make you cower,
But i have never been part of that
Everlasting hour
Let me fade,
Fade away
Into nothing
And I dont trust anyone that I've
Ever gotten to meet
cause everybody I meet has this strange idea of killin me
Swore to god it wouldn't be so hard to let it go
The pain inside the throbbing nothingness of always bein alone
Let me fade,
Fade away
Into nothing
Cause I'm nothing
And no one knew exactly why
I had to go away
I left all of my friends and family
In Tennessee
Alex I am sorry for pokin your eye back in 5th grade
I hope Im not the reason for any damage to it today
Let me fade,
Fade away
Into nothing
Cause I'm nothing

I wanna see a ghost
so i can be convinced
theres somethin better after this
I wanna see a dead man wearin a sheet over his head
and i wanna wear a crown on my head
made of paper children
and i dont wanna deal with the shit i deal with on a daily basis
and i wanna go back to california
but i dont wanna be there with ya
i wanna be happy to step outside
and try new things and be better for you
and i dont wanna be the dude
who sits areound and smokes his dues away
and waits for something else to change
without tryin to change things
on my own
Alone
But theres a better chance ill be happy right here
yeah theres a better chance ill get over my fears
yeah theres a better chance that i will be here and drinking beer
yeah theres a better chance that I will be
happy right here

Every Particle
04:18
|
|||
|
I wasted every particle
On trying to make you happy
When as it turns out in the end
Everyone that I love loves me
And i should never have to waste my energy
You broke my bones and let them rust
Like metal pipes along the street
Combust and useless due to the fact
They don't need anyone but me
With flames a-burnin' like an old ass effigy
You whispered hymns that would divorce your enemies
And when the moon came up ya screamed and screamed and screamed
The sun was hot but night was cold and unhappily me.

Break Me
02:26
|
|||
|
There's always something hiding deep
Inside of all your enemies
Sink into them and learn their weakest
Points of pressure to defeat
Everyone I know is sad
Even your mom, and even her dad
Your fatherly young boyfriend who
Keeps you so safe and sound there too
He heats up and you cannot help
But hide until the flowers done
With blooming soft, so soothing but
Too many fires burning up
Under the blanket where you sleep
Everyone that, you love will weep
And afterall you're just a thing
Pretty young noun with no release
From anyone or anything
You aren't real, but really break me.

I discovered this band entirely because this cover art was so bizarre I couldn't just scroll past on YouTube. I'm glad too since it's a great album. The lead singer's voice is so full of personality and crazed energy that I can't help but enjoy myself listening to it.
