Tell me what you've got that I really need After all these years you're just a disease You only make friends so you can shove them down The next time I see you will be six feet under You think you're coming up but I've got bad news We're onto all your tricks no one will work with you So don't call me up trying to squash some beef you made up in your head Don't exist to me From the day we met I couldn't understand how someone was so fucked in the head Your only at you best exploiting everyone around you and you're so goddamn fake You think you're coming up but I've got bad news We're onto all your tricks no one will work with you So don't call me up trying to squash some beef you made up in your head Don't exist to me Don't come sniffing around my way again I'm all tapped out We were never really friends So just give up You think you're coming up but I've got bad news We're onto all your tricks no one will work with you So don't call me up trying to squash some beef you made up in your head Don't exist to me

The way you show up with your philosophic banter Straight propagating like you've really got the answers Like anything you say, could make this go away If theres no meaning who the fuck are you supposed to be Living with less like you even have ability To change anything, to me it sounds so strange No revolution just a quiet whisper So sure it's all just sorted out Faux Nihilism's just white privilege Trying to escape the fact that you sided with oppression in society Live with the confidence your opinions never mattered anyway what's the difference Between silence and conformity Your rational is making everyone a cancer Step back a second and you really got a chance at Seeing something else and not just for yourself If we get up you really should feel down More than a moment before the breakdown Thinking is a chore You should expect more No revolution just a quiet whisper So sure it's all just sorted out No need to worry while you just sit there No thought at all to what's going down Faux Nihilism's just white privilege Trying to escape the fact that you sided with oppression in society Live with the confidence your opinions never mattered anyway what's the difference Between silence and conformity Stand on the sidelines how bourgeoisie Living for a tribe called wait and lets see Something more than Nietzsche for you guide Convince yourself that nothing matters What's the point in even trying Just pick up your heart put down your pride White silence Means Violence Something that you really outta to know White silence Means Violence Something that you really outta to know White Silence Means Violence It's systematic race control Faux Nihilisms just white privilege Trying to escape the fact that you sided with oppression in society Live with the confidence your opinions never mattered anyway what's the difference Between silence and conformity

Gaslight 03:34
Drove until the lights had all gone out Crashed into a field and ran aground Kept feeling like I'd been there once before I left the car and looked up at the stars I wonder what I'll say to her when I get back I guess I'll never know The only thing I'm sure of now is that I'm never going home again Remember that apartment where we grew our love together Our love together it was all so new The ache of it keeps flashing through my head The thought of you leaving makes me sick I wanna take back every single word I said when I was on one knee Just another promise that I swear I'll never keep Your strangle on my heart was double fisted I've been missing something that never existed Coming around to see you as the worst decision I have ever made I was beating my hands on the wheel until it broke Stuck driving with my knees on the way to a hospital They cast me up and told me the only thing I need A new antidote for this gaslighting disease She's renting space in my head Insisting I am to blame Don't wait up just leave your gaslight on

Derailed train Coal, dust, and broken bones lay scattered on the ground Blood stains the page and every words obscured I have to know are you together now She saw the rail split at both sides The last thing to cross her mind Hold me One last breath escapes collapsing lungs Falls to the river's edge and disappears They climbed the stairs laid in the sun Took in the views Don't wanna live it up You wanna live forever She saw the rail split at both sides The last thing to cross her mind Forever Give way to cold surrender Me and Rose trapped forever Give way to cold surrender Me and Beth trapped forever I gotta know, are you together now?

These Gemstones they shined so clear Faded in and out for over 20 years Then we got our second wind Fate pulled our cards told us to get right back in Seems so long ago we were still just kids So caught up with our hopes Not filled with negatives So we started out Where we thought that it would end Always giving up but never giving in Take me back to where it all began Waking up without a plan Evenings spent on strangers floors Expecting less but getting more Accept its never coming back Can't keep on living for our past and what could of should of been I'm getting too old for this shit These Gemstones they shined so clear Faded in and out for over 20 years Then we got our second wind Fate pulled our cards told us to get right back in Seems so long ago we were still just kids So caught up with our hopes Not filled with negatives So we started out Where we thought that it would end Always giving up but never giving in I wish there was A way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them I don't think I'd act different Drinking just to fall asleep This isn't how we used to be These gemstones, they shined so clear Then we got our second wind
