Hot Shit 02:18
lyrics
buy track
I bet you they don’t know about your emo days Piercings in your noise and that hair stick straight But underneath the tough girl was a silly face Silly me I believed you’d never change If I thought you were happy I’d be happy for you I guess that me and weirdos weren’t enough for you I hear that you’re Hot shit hot shit now Hot shit hot shit I hear that your hot shit hot shit now But I miss when you were cool I bet you they don’t know that you used to dance Alone inside your room, my chemical romance (I’m not okay!) Screaming like a lunatic in your underpants But you lost your heart to be a star on Instagram I hear that you’re Hot shit hot shit now Hot shit hot shit I hear that your hot shit hot shit now But I miss when you were cool I bet you they don’t know you used to feel real sad Binge episodes of friends cause you didn’t have ‘em So what ever you do don’t tell your new crew The ugly truth you loved me too Guess the joke’s on you

Runts 02:59
lyrics
You spit in all 4 of my black eyes Cracked these crooked teeth Always last to be loved, give it up for the runts Instagram banned my face for life Said it's too obscene Always last to belong, give it up for the runts We’ll multiply like flies till we’re kings Maybe then you'll see just how ugly this world can be We’re gonna bury your malls and football fields Breed right in your streets Lock your doors here we come, give it up for the runts We’ll always be the esteemed wannabes Don't catch our leprosy or you might be just like me With lips unkissed and thighs untouched Thumb’s the only thing that's sucked They say we’ll never be enough, they say when will you runts give up You spit in all 4 of my black eyes Instagram banned my face for life Always last to be loved Give it up for the runts Give it up for the runts Give it up Give it up We’ll multiply like flies till we’re kings Maybe then you'll see just how ugly this world can be

Rather Do 02:14
lyrics
buy track
I wanna be your dog I wanna sit in traffic with you I’ll play dead if you want me to Theres nothing else I’d rather do Eat your scraps I’m happy to There’s nothing else I’d rather do I wanna be your dad I wanna kill the boys that you touch They’ll be blood and they’ll be guts Cause I’d do anything for love Jump in an empty pool Attend a Sunday school I’d cut my hands off for you I’d cut my hands off for you If you thought no hands was cool There’s nothing else I’d rather do

Member Of The World 02:27
lyrics
Man it’s been a rough one Miserable marathon More than a month inside this head This sober grandpa Considered hard drugs Googling pills to take for dread So when you start to decend Oh don’t you try to defend If you just give up instead You’ll be ok in the end Maybe I’m a member of the world again Maybe I remember what it’s worth to live Maybe I’m back from my Vacay down in hell And maybe when it all unfurls again And the deadly black darkness descends Maybe I’ll be a bit nicer to myself Might help might help You know all those moments you feel like you’re holding a violent mob inside your lungs the whole of humanity and all its insanity is making you want to buy a gun Well for now it’s all over the conflict is off and somehow the old screaming demons are gone I’ll jump in my jammies and lay down my head pretend that they won’t come again Maybe I’m a member of the world again Maybe I remember what it’s worth to live Maybe I’m back from my Vacay down in hell And maybe when it all unfurls again And the deadly black darkness descends Maybe I’ll be a bit nicer to myself Might help might help Man it’s been a rough one Miserable marathon More than a month inside this head This sober grandpa Considered hard drugs I thought I’d feel this till the end Well for now it’s all over the conflict is off and somehow the old screaming demons are gone I’ll jump in my jammies and lay down my head But get ready get ready they’re coming to get me again

Upside Down From Here 02:22
lyrics
buy track
From Antartica to the polar caps Try to fit a big orb on a little flat map I'm not going to drive this time I love Greenland when it's Africa's size North is not up And East is not right Except for Milwaukee Wisconsin that night I know what it feels like to be upside down from here Here is my arm and it waves like a flag that reminds me That I have two arms and a map From Antartica to the polar caps Try to fit a big orb on a little flat map I'm not going to drive this time I love Greenland when it's Africa's size North is not up And East is not right Except for Milwaukee Wisconsin that night (So get a map and learn where you live at) (Learn where you live at, learn where you live at) I know what it feels like to be upside down from here I know what it feels like to be upside down from here And if we met halfway in the middle of the planet We'd just sit there and spin Would that happen? can it? I know what it feels like to be upside down from here (here is my arm and it waves like a flag) I know what it feels like to be upside down from here (that reminds me that I have two arms and a map )

Parking Lot Phillosophers 03:05
lyrics
buy track
Let’s play parking lot philosophers, know it’s your favorite game You say that we should shut our mouths, there’s nothing words can Guess I’ll just keep thinking over if I should spill the truth You’d laugh in my face, then use your mace, oh god it’s fun to loose Ba-da-da-da-da-da Sometimes I want you But most times all I need is this passenger seat Spinning around and around like a circus ride Sometimes I need you But I can’t ever be who you want me to be If I parked my whole life permanently would you stay here with me Guess we’ve gone down pretty deep here you’re crying in the shade I’m always like this, your therapist who’s never gotten paid It’s all good I know that it means a lot You say that you’re sorry I know you’re not Can’t we just shut up and drive before I blow my brains Sometimes I want you But most times all I need is this passenger seat Spinning around and around like a circus ride Sometimes I need you But I can’t ever be who you want me to be If I parked my whole life permanently would you stay here with me Spinning around and around I’m dizzy I’ll never be who you want me to be Spinning around and around I’m dizzy I’ll never be who you want me to be Spinning around and around I’m dizzy Spinning around Sometimes I want you But most times all I need is this passenger seat Spinning around and around like a circus ride Sometimes I need you But I can’t ever be who you want me to be If I parked my whole life permanently would you stay here with me

Virtually Reality 03:21
lyrics
buy track
I’m jealous of dogs Just drooling and barking And truly not knowing how stupid they are I think I’m so smart I’m driving my hybrid car I’m turning my lights off And living in darkness Well it’s how I choose to see it I wanna be numb and dumb and never really there The world is fucked it’s ok we got the meds We’re making love to the porn stars in our heads And wouldn’t it be wonderful to never be uncomfortable again It’s virtually reality baby and you can I’m jealous of babies They’re always so lazy Filling up on boobies in mommies arms And I’m trying to find love But my god it’s been so rough Cause I’m never gonna open up What if I’m done harm? I’ve been having trouble sleeping So I’m day dreaming of a place where people care The world is fucked it’s ok we got the meds We’re making love to the porn stars in our heads And wouldn’t it be wonderful to never be uncomfortable again It’s virtually reality baby and you can It really would be wonderful to never be uncomfortable again The world is fucked it’s ok we got the meds We’re making love to the porn stars in our heads And wouldn’t it be wonderful to never be uncomfortable again It’s virtually reality baby It’s virtually reality baby I’m virtually happy, maybe

Self-Destruct 03:20
lyrics
buy track
When they oxygen dissolves When you start to leave the ground You wanna curse the world But the words just won’t come out What are you scared of? When you hoped it wouldn’t come But you never had a doubt The hammer in your heart Is trying to get out What are you scared of? Just breathe in, don’t freak out Just be someone else Push it down, take control Oh god hear it goes Like a bomb blast in my mind I self destruct sometimes Never have what you got I’m a shell so shocked March me off I am not What this cold world wants Like a bomb blast in my mind I self destruct sometimes When the people start to stare With all their fake concern You try to keep your cool But your blood begins to burn What are you scared of? Then the lights begin to dim And your airway starts to cave You try to pray to god But you know you wont be saved What are you scared of? Like a bomb blast in my mind I self destruct sometimes Never be what you need I’m a casualty Say goodbye I am not What this cold world wants Like a bomb blast in my mind I self destruct sometimes When they oxygen dissolves When you start to leave the ground You wanna curse the world But the words just wont come out What are you scared of?

I Hate Me (I don't anymore but I did when I wrote this song) 03:28
lyrics
buy track
This too shall pass Walking through the woods on a cool gray day and I fantasize the opening lines of my suicide note But if it lasts, I hear heaven’s great, like a pretty posh place But I’ll have to work on speech Or maybe I’ll just negotiate cause selfish is the only way I know Fuck me, I’m so lucky, I hate me I hate me I hate me Fuck me, I’m so lucky, I hate me I hate me This too shall pass and I won’t feel sick every time I click But this world is pretty fucked up and I’m so scared And then there’s you You who I owe everything too but I can’t even hear the sweet nothings you whisper in bed at night I’m trapped inside this boxy head and I can’t think outside Fuck me, I’m so lucky, I hate me I hate me I hate me Fuck me, I’m so lucky, I hate me I hate me Really hope the New York Times writes about me Doesn’t have to be on the front page but maybe by page 3 They could say that I was special and that I never lied But I guess that they’ll just write about the next dead guy Fuck me, I’m so lucky, I hate me I hate me I hate me Fuck me, I’m so lucky, I hate me I hate me

Them (feat. Love Fame Tragedy) 02:27
lyrics
buy track
Them Hay, if I could just eat hay I wouldn’t have a thing to loose I’d only have to sleep and chew Say, if I knew what to say Wouldn’t talk about Stalin’s youth I wouldn’t be offending you But if I’m honest, I’m not that honest But at least I’ve got the guts to say I get jealous, overzealous No, I’d never cry again if I was just like them Change, if I could only change I could solve my add I could sell my fake degree It’s kind of strange If she had only stayed I wouldn’t self medicate I wouldn’t have to meditate But if I’m honest, I’m not that honest But at least I’ve got cajones to say I get jealous, overzealous No, I’d never cry again If I was just like all the rest of your friends Floating through life without a voice in my head God I wish I was just like them If I was just like them
