Nonetheless 02:30
Sometimes I roll down my windows instinctively so I can feel the warmth of the wavering heat There is a simple malfunction mechanically I can follow the gallows as I make my retreat Take me away from everything In a field of flowers sits a single tree It is holding an apple It's waiting for me I said I would never accept defeat yet I find myself spiraling infinitely Take me away from everything I can still smell the summer as it retreats The wind's getting louder It's shaking my feet Take me away from everything

Long Pig 03:44
Amnesia woman She wanders the roads Separated from a broken home Rain falls in a deafening cold drenching the few possessions she owns I know you're a cannibal A nightcap whiskey before bed on the stairs Deep in the shadows who's waiting there? Shoots and ladders with hook on the chairs Plates are garnished with apples and pears I know you're a cannibal Flesh devoured after a flash in the pan Fatty gristle from another man His desires cannot be fulfilled Silently plotting his next meal I know you're a cannibal

Seven 05:01
A hand is only big enough for a handful like the handful of times that I should have died I'll keep your secrets in my lockbox locked away beneath the sands of time Steady is the captain of titanic guiding us safely through the tide Buried oh so deep among the undertow lies the iceberg that split the sky Drifting toward the shore on broken floorboards Triumphant on the doorway of denial Were we empty handed in the morning? Searching for a porcelain paradigm How we often struggle in the evenings Prying every star out of the night Spare me all the details of your science Every little tooth inside your crooked smile Reminds me once again of all your accidents Excuse me as I turn away to cry Sever for me the ligament of your cervix I'll always bear the crosses of your trial

Poker Chips 01:39
Tell me how the mind works i'm talking about the brilliant ones Please a quick psychology lesson I know all about depression, alcoholism, and my lack of ambition So tell me why I have this fear of death? Maybe it's because I've buried more family members than I have left Tell me how the mind works Oh brain, please respond because if you don't then I know he's gone. And at your funeral all you wanted to say was "throw poker chips on my grave." The memories that people have of you, I struggle to find I was so young, incredibly naive I'm feeling guilty and horrible inside

The winds are blowing They usher in familiar changes Like shedding skin The nights get longer As the days grow thin With our heartbeats rising a new light peaks in Flush with anger and regret I watch the smoke rise off a cigarette I'm so tired of the rhetoric And the classist promise of unification The winds are blowing They usher in familiar changes Like shedding skin The nights get longer As the days grow thin With our heartbeats rising a new light peaks in I was thinking about your breath How it travels through your neck It's so easy to accept all this motion if we're unconscious And I wonder what am I doing here?
6.
Roundabout 01:47
Roundabouts are only empty promises They never stop Yield to what's in front of them I'm losing out Get out Heading south on ocean avenue I'm airing out your vapid attitude I'm losing out Get out

I didn't watch a lot of baseball this year Now that you're gone everything's so surreal Now that you're gone I don't know how to feel Tell me all your bad dreams Tell me everything that you fear
8.
Milquetoast 04:37
Dilate and stare into my pupils Corneas and maps that lead to nowhere No one says, "I'm here to stay" Everyone will die one day Tell me how I can change I'm afraid of what you'll say The more I taste the more I feel discouraged My larynx strains to inhale any oxygen Why am I afraid of change? Everyone will die one day Now I know that you won't stay I've run out of things to say
