Bad plans for now, couldn’t fall from a mere stalled pisser Or secure position, I’m not remiss to contain padded weight Don’t want known beauty permeate an untouched finished work Unlock the spirals, oh the spirals, fuck, we’re headed for dirt Can’t look away from the big horns They’re looking out for dust Swept away, swept away, swept away It’s been too long I’ve had a battered third life Just give me a second for a thirst My quest for no regret, won’t work until I forget
2.
Oh steward self-contained will fortune rain on kindly? If there’s a bullet doubt I might not pray too blindly Please, don’t beware, please, don’t beware of here I’ve heard Oh steward I think I’m hurt and if it’s out they’ll find me Oh, It will get worse Could it be the first time Don’t think I’ve been prepared to be punctured for too long Why do they think I do, why do they think I do? It’s not a feeling that I feel for long, it’s not a feeling that I’ve felt for (so) long

Herded 02:06
Atticus hears, what addicts we are, gonna set on fire And ring all the bells, catching scarecrows yelling oh oh All of us knew that a spell was on but proving it now wouldn’t put a stop To calling up claims, smoothing it out when we’re oh oh Annex our ears, annex our years, cave to our peers, shame ain’t enough Stepping so sweet, Atticus keeps those barrels finite As if I might trust, measure so exact to oh oh oh oh Measures so exact that they got us pegged, measure so exact that we’ve never felt Never felt twice, when I once belonged to a furtive mind I’ve been outnumbered, herded
4.
It’s not your fear that’s keeping you here, concealed I’ve got a stake, it’s breathless intake, I’m right, all along Cut at the seam, you like what you hear but it’s gone, oh Relate to the stare, it’s worse when you care, it’s still here Acting like you can’t own up, it’s not that you gotta act tough All seems later, give me the floor, why don’t you want more? All things fashioned out of the stream, you know they got mean Scratching at won’t deliver, arcane preserved but no longer free Too far away form the skids who comforted me but no longer dream
5.
Pitfalls you’re my precious, been gone so I couldn’t tell Whether we’re contentious, I beg to be pleasant still Afar a small goal line, I bet we have not done well Could you cloud my atlas, be better off unfulfilled Freeze up when your time comes Curtail all the cotton, you know it’s so comfortable No time to begotten, a fate we had once withheld Be stressed I will refuse rest, what’s left is what I can’t take with Coral what’s left free time, you’ll wish your poor mind’s endured
6.
Grasp at forgotten ideals Can’t help but know they’ll never turn out real Running through barren fields Can’t wait until we raise our heads out No more star pretense straight ahead Balanced with a latent cask of romance No shades of hollow remorse About conditions that we all take part in Ch: Can’t scratch at, won’t turn a rare commitment You’ll pay into false promise and second guessing Keep falling for a second kind of light but won’t testify, won’t rectify Don’t bother to keep in sight what’s surely been a repeated message I will never forgive birthright Cold-hearted, some will pick all fights To qualify, to qualify I can’t say it’s been a prayer Standing edge of plank we’ll kiss instead You’re only moving the way you know how You’re only moving ahead
7.
It’s comfort singes, resonating all dull pain Expect escape attempts roughly a hand a year Fresh out in gardens, purely rolling out exhaust Far fetching marbles stead my eyes caught on the silk Pre-CH: Stop gaps fitting all aligned Crust scrap dusting joint accounts It’s not lack of resolve, stinging dour crop amounts Creased publics still abound, for might CH: Unfastened callow hassle crime Cast shallow molecules infused All updates crammed in wider pools
8.
Fake your place in this culture, pay it straight when the stoning comes make it seem like you put some though it’s not always serene when the next day comes let’s complicate from a simpler state don’t wanna face up when you’ve been playing up laying the grounds to desecrate forestall your conclusions to carry some weight CH: It’s not a debate worth having I’m not even keeping track It’s not a debate you’re having No subtle defense for hiding from what’s at stake
9.
We’ve been set up, I could stand to bother why All shots not stung, you’re jealous laugh is all I find Your scared, all scars, set in, fall asleep You’ll learn, cheat death, situate, I’ve heard Death’s door, too bad, tough love, his second best, what you deserve Your device Find you cursing in muffles I’m picking up why It’s not that we’ve discovered A fascination with shy free time, you’ll wish your poor mind’s endured
10.
This cast of patterns, we’re all unflattered, projects set too small I wouldn’t gather at no place grander, with no casting and no call Please afford the most ignored quips only used to stall It will be pleasing, are you done keeping, displays oh so neat Foretold many, can’t hold steady Flights of no consequence only temper your bouts Spit and spite only corrode the breath that you have left Unrepentant nonsense leads to unpayable debt Principles we’ve coasted on, are you serious yet Sincere provocateur all hope rests on continuum Blast delays, there is no serenity where you come from
11.
Wind up no common values move you Staring down the hidden glimpses can’t sooth I’ve felt no different from far below I’ve suspect displacement of memorium CH1: Forced contests, we’ve adored you Battered cat scrapes all succumb to Wish to postulate, all anew Squeamish, you call this night through CH2 I’ve been kind, of paid mind Can’t explain away the pain I left you If you’re shaking, it’s not strange Feeling ruined, still won’t replace you Washed walls, can’t wait to leave them ashen No cashed calls, count on me to breathe it all in coda: I’ve been no better payer of mind If you let us forget, is it worth all the time I’ve been no better payer of mind If you can fake it concrete, I might just relate Not sure if it hurts, it’s worth to hold X2 No past can’t straighten this sight No past can sail (through) the uprights
12.
I remember when the feeling rushed All fates slowly come ahead All plans aside, subscribe to never ending dread Can’t speak up when, I’m heading for the glass Brain clouds amass, it’s all half past, no reverse now Feel ashamed, no souls are pitying You’ve entertained, but no engagement could pull you through I fell out, ignored all calls and now there’s no requisite that’s left to regret Sticking to a mindset that’s only digging ditch Style over style it’s all over too quick
13.
Curtains surround, the cracks have us going down It’s not quite a pawn I’ve noticed but flailing, floundering Swiftly our graces retreat, call off all beliefs Constricting the flows we can’t see, I bet we’re gonna seethe I wouldn’t fare too long, it’s just falling ain’t far enough for us Calling on me ain’t hard, partly trying is not gonna make you budge I don’t feel no rush, when it’s practical but oh so dull All these good deeds can’t flatter me now I won’t be here when you’re making up for lost time
14.
I’ve found some whiskers on eyes Can’t get a break from keeping clean I found a cheek that was kind We’ll enable all breaches seen Forget about what was true Didn’t you know it can’t get through you Fill in at will and be fine Surpassing the crass and crutching cast Your past has bigger exports, I’ve been aware of few more Colossal lies adrift to run dry Ch: Fine figures, your girl called, I won’t return once it’s been said Allowing another stall I’ll find regress to dwell instead
15.
Put past us, we won’t move faster I’ll hold my breath, no interfere Fold fast as if one with less to offer Cold cast will not supplant your fears CH: Unseat the worthless, I’m giving up none of (you) Switch out the curtains, they’ll be showing up with no one tonight
16.
Care Free 02:09
Fix all pretty laws for me X2 Partake in phony trades over Won’t be long until nothing is pretty Force your failing hate on me X2 Leave all that’s at stake and come forth Contagious, I will stand care free We’ll quit giving shit, when you do X2 When you feel like giving in, please do I’ve felt borrowed on a long time Currents’ fast it can’t all be kind Quit the suit, thought it was cute I’ll be never trapped or removed, Quit the suit, thought it was cute Forgetting, fleeting, so minute CH: Speaking of gold stars on display Failing now remain in decay What was then a short term relay Failing now, remain in a mainstay B: We’ll never move on, breaking backs still nothing done It’s not hard to make sense now It’s still a trick that we’re all falling for Care Free
17.
Brute Fuel 01:42
Can’t quite be just brute fuel To force, to force the rest of us I could tell of hidden games if I were cruel Hesitation’s got no thrill Falling back on no one Foresee no benefits in Forestalled conclusions Lots in a cash in, lots in, I’m all fins Cursing fates with no win, All accounts frozen Push out a regular cart Start handing over my parts, and that’s not the worse of it I can’t imbue false starts And that’s what makes this art true
18.
If every line’s a beginning to describe a terrible fall Then stall and get a handle because we’re not getting through at all Believe a cliché sometimes, you may appreciate some distance From fretting head to pavement, It’s not a flattering constant CH: No meddling cause there is little you’re willing to understand Pretend that you’re all digging when there’s nothing new that’s not at hand I’ve discovered with all credit to you Abandon dwelling, if you can stand Defend no figures, based on crisis, twisted demands If I’m about to get there, turn off all uselessness It’s not a battle I can win if daring fronts we’ll all regret I’ll be a suspect cause I’ve never learned, forsake your past steps
19.
Sweat Sheets 01:36
Forgotten what’s not allowed I’ve gotten so stale I can’t be sure It’s not our fault that they surround Dull states we’ve slept and we’ll be beat Quick success, all turns abound Got in deep, quicksand, no chance to be undone Sweat sheets, all drapes are down No sleep, screens ahead, to an end that’s inevitable CH: It’s not concrete, we’ve still got to keep A bit sense of hanging on Concede to all consequence Six guns along, all stall to giving in Done with being strung along Tie-up, beak out and come be strong Crowd out prosperity Walls abridged, not confided, iron bound Face up, tear down foretold Fits right to swallow where we begin
20.
Shot Down 02:18
It’s not quite shot down, but we better stiff up Faced with bracing the seal, you know we’re past living up (you know we’re passing it up) Steal commiseration, oh, was never part of the deal Stealing your fate is, my god’s only proof Our yesteryears won’t come back, are faulty, they can’t be Fixed or for real, I’ve not been here, but now who could be We’ll quiet down, they I’ll be alone I’ve fired off, some ghastly torn phrases If you think yourself, an individual I’m not quite myself, life strung maybes Favor fake flavor My place is still, meant to be still, please kill what’s meant to be still
21.
For some crisis I can understand It’s not a beckon that needs to be filled If they had put in as much as you It would still need to be approved That’s all wake call, I can’t wait to be called Falling exact as proved 30 fits I’ve begun, it’s just I haven’t yet falling exact as proved matters of trite contest turn to tumult I couldn’t read up if it called for that I’m sure a witness would forget too If a breakdown would keep the force of it The rich are prone to protest too
22.
Focus now is over my head Discouragement where fates rest I’m allowed but chosen not Skidding towards all bets off Stuck like concrete Got broken arms Icy spiral, migraine complete We’ve gotten by I can’t take over this town I won’t turn over Face forward, not about to turn around The people I trust, I know I’ll let them down Can’t tell the people I trust, I know I’ll let them down I can’t stand to cover What I can’t even hide from myself In time discovered When a blank stare could’ve mattered Fits right to swallow where we begin
23.
It’s gotten about as doubtful as it could be Still grasping onto leaves of barren trees It’s easier to brace the slow decline Than a hard won fall Been holding on as if it’s not as bad Still tricking the sharp mind I never had But still we’re pulling for lost artifacts That we know not to be found CH: Can I force a change of plan Even with some help, I couldn’t get myself This pattern overacted I will tempt myself with decaying satisfaction I’ve figured that it’s all in a grown up world I’ll get it when the times right understood Auto set back when you can’t ignore, not meant to be secure So settled on the sideline, no gears strain All imagination’s been contained But I swear don’t know where those spots came from It couldn’t have been undone Bridge: Quit falling for the case of almost won Been standing in place you know and chatting only with dumb ones Fully functioning, actually competing I could’ve stood there endlessly, but I was the rug
