BRED
to punch
The Clock
And die off slowly
DEAD
Fluore-
scent Lights
In adderall eyes
THRUST
Into
The Tank
Mindless 20-something
WANT
To Fade a-way
To fade away
to fade away
I
fade, I fade
Away, away
UP
you climb
to find
The Glass Ceiling
SHA
-ttered piece
of Mind
In Adderall Eyes
NUM
-ber crunch
ing numb
Whited out
Start to slip away
Away, away
To fade away
BRED
to punch
The clock
and Die off slowly
BORN
to fade a-
waaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Chain of Command
02:47

Step outside for a cigarette
The unsettling laughter of children, the children
I feel the tremor of the trigger in my hand
The ember was glowing in infrared
AaAaAA It’s getting harder to feel human
AaAaAAA Bad link in a chain of command
AaAaAA No escaping from a heavy hand
AaAaAAA Bad link in a chain of command
Playing God like a video game
Ignoring protests of my surface brain, my surface brain
It’s only pixels in the sand
Cards in someone else’s hand;
Puppets pulling puppet strings
Who can tell me what it means?
(chorus)
(chorus)

Makeup

She puts her make up on
just to have something to smear
Already all is wrong
Yet to leave the mirror
Give me your hand and I’ll make it feel mine
Give me a reason to act like it’s fine
Keep all your money I want just the time back
back
She said the rules change
as soon as you learn the game
She held my finger over the flame
Now I’m terrified, terrified!
Give me your hand and I’ll make it feel mine
Give me a reason to act like it’s fine
Keep all your money I want just the time back
back
Now I’m terrified, terrified, terrified!!!
Give me your hand and I’ll make it feel mine….
Give me a reason to act like it’s fine
Keep all your money I want just the time back
back
(terrified terrified...)

That Ain't Me

The truth is this is ending, dear
You should know by now,
While you’ve been gone
I’m stepping out
I thought you’d understand this
Things have long since changed
We weren’t fooling anyone,
Anyway
You already know who you will run to
You’ll always find a pair of arms to hold you
saying “it’s okay” and baby, that ain’t me.
I knew that this was wrong
Even from the start
You wrote the end
I played the part
We thought it would be easy
To dress up our lies in love’s disguise…
You already know who you will run to
You’ll always find a pair of arms to hold you
Saying “it’s okay” and baby, that ain’t me.
You don’t even care where I might run to.
You cry and call my name I want to trust you,
Begging me to stay but babe, that’s no longer me.
