It’s over I know God won’t forgive me I don’t want to apologize even though I do I gave I gave and then I gave it up It’s not worth the looks ‘n the dirty grins I’m first And you said “don’t forget who you are, boy” but I’m not gonna save you I don’t even know how it feels I don’t even know how I feel
[PRE-CHORUS: Don’t. say. that you’re proud of me I ain’t about to come. back. cause this house is already burnin’ drop. that. gun. I am not your broken bone I just don’t want to be there when you pull the trigger
Not. One. more time, even your heaven knows it I’m. done. and you can’t wrap your arms around the Black. Sun. Dear Krypton has left my heart and nothing could be further for now ]
I’m grievin’ hunched along the table I’m sick from the touch of your big hands I’m not your friend I’m cruel there’s no way of givin it to you I know you loved the U.S.A. better than me “Oh, you got some nerve” I know and I’ll take it with me It’s my fault just say it, it’s my fault and I’ve got no love Well I got no, I got no love and I
I half wished I would crash my car on the way back, it woulda just pushed it farther, the pain and the stress in a long dress but you wouldn’t give it a rest on the cryptid in my chest And I been thinkin’ ‘bout the way that you compliment I don’t consent, you never said what you meant but that’s fine ‘cause I’m out the line with the blood on my knuckles goin’ down the pipeline
(It’s been uplifting, to say the least, that our sources have become final We regret to inform you that there is no waking hour, we are alone here I don’t know what I would do if I was dead)
Oh, but [PRE-CHORUS]
Oh, here I am, I’m a Faceplant Child! I’m Grendel crawlin’ for the ghosts in the wild I’m the Adam’s apple who’s fallen from the line of Cain and I’m dermurin’ Burnham and I’m murderin’ time with your signet on the left and the door on the right and I’ll kick up who I am when I’m runnin’ as fast as I can
(You said “don’t forget who you are” You said “don’t forget who you are”) But I’m not who you are (You said “don’t forget who you are”) But I’m not who, I’m not who you are (You said “don’t forget who you are”) I’m not who you are I’m not who you are

[V1]: The trees make me whisper A spir’t of remorse The branches are careless and course The kings have all heralded A maim for my form The Cherrys’ll wait for the storm The people are pushin And cursin each other The love and indifference For dearest old mother The Sun puts me down With a wave of its breath I wish he would put me to death The vengeance of flowers The clock of the world The jigsawmill powers The tails getting curled It makes me feel passion But heavy with gears I wish I could say you’re my dear
[V2]: No rocks that will travel With wind made to mourn A voice becomes dead when they’re born A mutagen prosp’rous The hands-on relief A cure that they’ll curse in their sleep The sound of dear gunfire A panic is torn A feud between brainwire A side in his thorn The big fest is happenin But no one’s arrived The kid’s servin coffee inside A stairwell is breakin It creaks on the floor A hellwind is howlin Her thoughts get ignored The pangolin’s frownin A god’s smokin beer I wish that your harvest was near
[V3]: The forest got older The hills can’t explain There’s emptiness that falls with the rain The habits are circlin The train’s gone away There’s no one to see you today The mermaids are restless The fog’s swimmin north The spills come relentless A voice it comes forth And if your old waters Put off the same heat Condemn me for love in your seat You carried this travesty Guitars in your face I howl at your majesty A centaur’s in space And if you were cold By the warrior’s stand I wish you would play with my hands
[V4]: The Sun’s killing berries And shoes left to waste The setting’s lost all of its taste And if there is magma Awake in its hate Until it comes frozen, I’ll wait Cause now in this summit The tarot cards fold The businessmen plummet A moth turns to mold The bell’s on probation The dragon is stayed I’ll hate me for all that I’ve made I found your addiction It’s made with amends I’ll hold their afflictions If gravity bends I wish I could meet you And sell our mistakes I wish for this nighthaunt to break
I wish I could see you And kiss your green face but I’ll wait for the nighthaunt to break
For All We Have by Levi Robinheart
[sung to the tune of Auld Lang Syne]
Keep me awake and ring me out of ars’nic and of love Fulfill my weary trav’ling wish reaffirm the skies above For all we have is fear and hope these ends will gather means And ‘spire new beauty for our world and all of life between For grave surrounding time and love take hold of what you need For all we have is fear and hope and all of life between
Look out the window it’s time for the sanitization Calm down sailor the end’s just an anchor aweigh Well you killed any love that I had for the organization So write your letter but we all know what you’re gonna say
[CHORUS: I couldn’t wait I couldn’t wait for the end of term It’s been a long day comin home I couldn’t wait I couldn’t wait for the end of term It’s been a long day comin home ]
You tried, buddy but you can’t depend on your slander now The boots of the people will stain all the back o’ your coat Was it worth it to try holdin back all the Mountain Due? Was it worth it to shout at the crowds just to end up alone?
[CHORUS]
Roll out the carpet our friend here is takin a final bow You’ll look your best when you’re givin your closin speech And there’s no defendin your ass now the grownups’ll take it from here now say hi to the devil when you get back home from the beach
[CHORUS]
It’s been a long day comin home It’s been a long day comin home It’s been a long day comin home
Something strange to me must be something wrong Something that doesn’t care who for I can’t say anything anymore but everything in me was already said before
You’re a stranger daddy’s gotta getcha is daddy gonna getcha yet?
you don’t have any skin I feel big in this apparatus I been carrying this since I foundout how it happens I’m not scared, look at me don’t you be so sensetive don’t you look at her that way! don’t you love him anymore?
I don’t have the light in my eyes it’s just reflectin off the glasses You don’t seem so kinda weird until the particle passes
There’s no safety where you’re from it’s same and it’s different for me mad as hell to find a girl who doesn’t care about rights it’s all they expect from a clan I swear I could take you and they’d say it’s typical
cause you got too close I don’t get what I want enough I need daddy to say that I’m special cause he loves me, loves me, loves me, loves me just like a gun
how can this be the life? stayin in my hometown my whole life watchin the animals lie I know, that’s right Found her, I was sleepin on a rock this old rock that I never listen to but I love so dearly this old rock
She says I’m searchin for acceptance and investment rejected to me when I was in development ‘n that I’m the product of generations of misguided communication and the entitled adoration of an overzealous nation built upon intimidation and the lack of acknowlation of the feral sterilization by religious militarization and embration of what they don’t even know will hurt them
and I listened and I listened and all I could say was “I guess”
how can this be the life? theory wear for the thrill of anger throwin darts at a chalkboard ‘cause anythin’s better than dyin alone (I’m dyin alone)
is it okay to think this way about people you don’t give a shit about? is it alright to feel this way about someone you might give a shit about? is it okay to think this way about people you don’t give a shit about? is it alright to feel this way about someone you might give a shit about?
how bad can it get? how bad is this gonna get? is it too late for me to give up the ghost?
is there a way? is there any way? is there any way at all?

[V1]: Don’t knock it til you’ve tried it There’s only so much left I’d rather waste away than be a part of an effortless death You’ll break but now you’ve made it Do your taxes look as real as this? It don’t matter if you’re okay Just as long as your money and your country is safe I know you I know all about you and all of your pain I feel just like you Take my hand, my eyes are startin to ache (--o ache) (--o ache)
[V2]: Stop the screamin that’s in my ear Punish me until I’m okay You can’t get anythin good round here Come and say that shit to my face What an embarrassing episode! At least you’ve still got a mind It’s all the same babe you’ll be gone in a week but I can’t say the same for your kind Stop the screamin Say what do you think does my house look okay? Stop believin I’m not a man, I’m the mayor today (today) (today)
[V3]: I bought my life in a Walmart You sold your soul to the feds Look at what you’ve accomplished in so little time Why aren’t you scared by this? You spend your afternoons throwin fists with the news but you ate another cricket and you’ll be home soon Sit and stare at your friends look for pity again No! I am the only character to say it depends (it depends, it depends) And the people agree I see you think you’re crazy and it’s scarin me Standin on a mine know you’re watchin me Now there’s nothin I can do about it! nothin nothin nothin nothin
I woke up the Fosters They called out a curse I'm tired of weekdays My tongue's getting worse I like when it rains here I can't go outside I hope you still like me I'm scared in my mind
All the weather's out And every day feels like today Got no promises Attention is scrolling away Feel the rhythm hold me down I look outside and see
My friends are in safety They still make me laugh My surface is shaking He looks like a calf I hate when I sleep in I like when I sleep I don't wanna wait for you But at least I'll get to speak with you
Eyelids heavy now I only hear the things that you say Can't remember it But I can see the light in your face Feel the river hold me down I look outside and see There's sunflow'rs again There's sunflow'rs again
Not sure what I'm thinking It's harder to say Don't know what I'm feeling But you feel okay You're holding me forward I'll do what I can If I could move faster I'd stay where I am
Hold these doors There's more of 'em when you look away You're myself At least that's what I want you to say I feel you pull me down I look to you and see There's sunflow'rs again There's sunflow'rs again
I'll put you away for the moment Can't sleep away what you've given me now I know I'll cry in the mornin' Keep wonderin' if you were even there I'll put you away for the moment Can't sleep away what you've given me now I know I'll cry in the mornin' Keep wonderin' how you were even there 'Til the flowers Come back
Purple was the day we met Whoever she is I don’t know who she is She’s everybody and I think that means That I’m goin to Hell I’m already in Hell What the hell She’s got a brain She knows it, too It makes sense If it don’t end happy, you know
(Stop Me!)
[CHORUS: It’s never goin away I’m stuck with you in my basement in my basement You and your stoning eyes All the words unsaid Do you think I coulda made it? Too soft, too rough And you always seem to say enough Oh god, enough You better tie me down Cause it’ll happen again in my basement in my basement ]
I found him through an open door Whoever he is I don’t care who he is He’s all I think about, I don’t feel smart He’s so cool with himself Why couldn’t I meet him? He’s got his friends, I got mine, too Sure it’s alright If I don’t make him happy, you know
(Stop Me!)
[CHORUS]
Oh, take a simple way to say the things you know Oh, such a simple way to say the things you don’t want to know
I see their eyes a golden lens Whoever they is I think I know who they is They’s all I want, my life is a joke They says “that isn’t true I like believin in you” They gives me heat, they goes back home Sure it’s fine If I still gotta let them go
(Stop Me!)
[CHORUS]
(in my basement in my basement in my basement in my basement in my basement in my basement in my basement in my basement)
If I were you I'd think my face is a pie Maybe it's the makeup Or the way that you die When I dance on the ceiling It makes me alive But if I were in focus I think you would fly Fly, fly, fly, bye
I've metal-bonded my tent To the clothes that I wear I don't think that it matters I don't think that you care I came to the circus 'Cause the people are here And they don't want my tears
[CHORUS So cial, so So see-ah the show So cial So come see-ah the show I'm so cial, so So see-ah the show I'm so cial So come see-ah the show ]
(yeh)
I poked your eyes in the summer You can burn me today Think that I see it comin' I'll hand you the flame "There's plenty o' room here" You gave me a smile But I'm afraid if I sit My bones'll turn to a pile A high and mighty pile
I'm so scared if I miss you That I'll miss you some more Think if I'm bein' honest That I'm bein' a bore You said you want Good vibes only today So I'll throw me away
[CHORUS]
A banquet in the evenin' I'll be there tonight Lately I'm your puppet And you're my pride Think if I share my soul I'll get a laugh outta you So I'll lie and say That's what I intended to do
'Cause no one believes me Don't think that I'm real Where do the jokes end And where is the peel The gag in my mouth, dear It sings me a song But it can't hold for long
[CHORUS x2]
Come see-ah the show Come see-ah the show Come see-ah the show Come see-ah the show
The only time I lie at peace is when I’m swimmin’ in my lay You kiss me gentle and my heart feels nice she’s got nothing to say I must remiss myself for what the world has given me today Romantic Hamlet for my skull’s become a Microwave
[CHORUS: What else am I supposed to think? Show me what else I can think What else am I supposed to think? Show me what else I can think ]
Hope I don’t lose myself because of how these fists pound on my head We woke up coughin took a walk around the morgue and paid the rent Study-compose and theorize but shoot ‘em out? I don’t see why ‘cause she’ll condole and you’ll say “fine” but you’re still stuck with this guy
[CHORUS]
You keep my quietus my bones are fine my bod-can take a few I know you care-an all but no one needs so I’ll carry-on with you A cigarette without the taste If I can’t digest I just chew A radon test A flashing light Don’t tell me we’re just like you?
[CHORUS]
I kick it over all the time Well I can train it if I try An early bed but still no sign of progressing past the web-foot line Department expiration lights They see me staring at the tide And Paris baby wants a ride I know she can’t be far behind
I’ll vacuum the carpet once we arrange all our figurines Funny the way that a thing catches dust without moving A push and a pull there It’s like someone put salt on the floor Really feels like the present or is that just how you came through the door?
[CHORUS: They’ve got a couple of trips to make before the end of the day They’ll be surprised to wake up and find that yesterday wasn’t a dream ]
But was it a stop sign climbin the stairs with the tables ‘n chairs? It’s just that my fingers were harmed but at least I get you in my arms Imagine the walls filled and we swim away through the living space We’ll hook up the thick screen I’m hopin the gang finds the new place easily
[CHORUS]
come on, I got some windows for ya
Walkin the list And they’ve got a couple of trips to make before the end of the day They’ll be surprised to wake up and find that yesterday wasn’t a dream Fresh out the past and color the pieces last They’re pushin up the canopy first Their brains’ll be hot Their bodies, dry But by the end they’re gonna see where it leads
I got the sheets There’s nobody left here to thank but us We’re gatherin dust I’m glad that we’re stuck in a new place
