Ominous Omenous 03:28
lyrics
buy track
With everything that they said, I thought that this was the end Someone is coming to kill us We don't know what they look like and we only know that they walk with a thunderous step. They will take no prisoners. They will stop at nothing. They have done this to countless towns before us. All we have left is our fingers crossed. With everything that you said I thought that this was the end. The end will not forget your words Drowning in darkness, you reap what you sow. But all of the world is ripe in the palm of my hand It takes more than someone like you to kill a man. We will take no prisoners. We will stop at nothing. We have done this to countless motherfucking towns before. Fingers crossed, fingers broken... With everything that they say, I think that this is the end I'm watching them cut down all of my friends! So it's your chance to listen It's your chance to train For we are the strongest, unbreakable chain. Yeah, This throne is ours.

Yeah! I know that times are tough But you can make this through man Just hear me out, hear me out! Spread your roots Keep your head down Spread your branches It'll be over before you know it Press forward! Press forward! Press forward! Yeah, that's right, y'all motherfuckers stay humble, I know how you really feel, in fact, I can explain... Don't act like I don't know you're a Piece of shit, hypocrite, stupid bitch, Instagram douchebag Tired of your good looks, why don't you Read a book, hit me back, show me you can manage that Then I will say "Yes, ma'am" Yeah! Then you can clock me out! Yeah! (Aw dude, he's gonna get fired man...) Yeah! Spread your roots Keep your head down Spread your branches It'll be over before you know Yeah! Press forward! Press forward! Press forward! Over before you know!

Path to the Sun 03:33
lyrics
buy track
The train was falling off the edge of the tracks I took one look and said I'm never coming back The brightest stars are the first to burn out As we watched them in a state of beautiful doubt. What are we even fighting for? We have to speak for ourselves! We just learned that our queen has no tongue, And we've been following her straight to the sun! The pathway to the sun is killing us! The train was falling off the edge of the tracks I took one look and said I'm never coming back The brightest stars are the first to burn out As we watched them in a state of beautiful doubt. Ah! I've found the sun, and the path's burning me alive! I've found the sun, and the path's burning me! I've found the sun, and the path's burning me alive. The heat drags on. The heat drags on and on. Oh! The pathway to the sun is killing us.

Most Nights 03:45
lyrics
buy track
Oh! Most nights, drinkin' alone. So one night, I'm drivin' home From this motherfucking shit job, turning tables And I think to myself, "I've never felt so small before" To who am I supposed to voice this? I know that I don't have many choices... And you came to mind, I swear to God! And then I really start to think to myself When did I get so far from my destiny? I saw the future with you, today is all I see now If I made my bed, then I shall fuck in it, I'll be drinkin' in it, pull the covers up over my head! (Chorus) And so I chose the path that I took that day, I look over my shoulder, all I see is your face! Because most nights, I'm drinkin' alone, pick up the phone I don't know what to say, I just want to hear your voice... I swear to God! Been holdin' out for so long. Frustrated, I did everything there is to do and now I'm fuckin' bored I masturbated a thousand fuckin' times and now nothin' feels good anymore! If happiness is subject to tolerance, Am I stuck in a rut, or in a devilish dance? I'm sayin' Depression rings familiar tunes in my head Because I'm just getting by, but always closer to death Because most nights I have a clear moment where I understand That you're always getting father, I'm not fighting back I swear to God, that's when I know I lost myself. (Chorus)

Clean Slate 03:54
lyrics
buy track
(Chorus) Is this my fall from grace? I don't recognize anything Like the roots growing all throughout the floorboards Or the water from the kitchen sink! When I close my eyes it's there Everything around me becomes so clear, To protect the innocent, was work meant for the damned! Go! We all wish we could do life over again Taking advantage of all of the things that we know could help us. Lost in escapism, generation trapped in the clouds, I don't want any help coming down. So challenge me on "what is," Compare my worth to this useless existence that my hollow shell is trapped in. If this is the life that I'm stuck with, I'm gonna do something! Trapped inside a castle in the sky, I want out but not down! Like the days that we used to spend getting high, I want up but not down! Get lost in this useless existence. Hollow shells trapped in the clouds. Oh! Whoa! Sing it with me! (Chorus) We all wish we could do life over again Searching for happiness, hoping that we can find clean slate.

Meaning 02:32
lyrics
buy track
Show me, what is the meaning? I'm just searching for solace, Acceptance for who I am, good and bad And while I'm not sure how happiness is supposed to feel I think that comes close to it. It ain't the idea, but the person reifying it. But what if a person changes? Does meaning stay static? We're stuck in endless "What If's..." Show me what is the meaning of love, pride, community? I think this is where I end my night, I feel the chills passing through me and I'm losing the light If that's what it is, If that's what life is, Just hear me out, if sleep is like death, When I wake up, I'll start over again.

Hotline 02:55
lyrics
buy track
Either way, lost in the waves. Happiness, depression, they feel all the same. So if someone holds your hand when you're drowning, Why not try? You might be surprised, the world seems to give a fuck sometimes. I need to know that somebody's been there. Through hell and back and all of the weather inbetween So I won't try to take a shortcut to heaven or a great beyond And so I try to extend that... This is not the answer you're searching for! The moment that I almost fell I found love from obscure places, There's hope amongst the robots by grace, in an unfamiliar face! So when you're calling up that hotline, So you can cross it off your list, Expecting that you'll get a robot on the other line, And then you wind up with this. I know you wanna give up, but I don't wanna give in, And I don't give a fuck. I wanna do whatever it takes, drive across town, Buy a plane ticket, double Jamesson on the rocks. 'Cause none of that shit is worth your fucking life. So we can look at the stars another night. Either way, lost in the waves. Why not try? The world seems to give a fuck sometimes. I need to know that somebody's been there. Through hell and back and all of the weather inbetween So I won't try to take a shortcut to heaven or a great beyond And so I try to extend that... Yeah!
