Gold Teeth

I'm giving up on the one I once thought I was
I'm leaving the past behind
I've been thinking about this all wrong
It ain't the medicine, ain't the state you left me in
ain't the neighbors dog, ain't my pain and suffering
It's this new guy
Make room for the new guy
I've done shed my skin I've dropped out I've tuned in
I have realized I have realized I have become real once again
I have realized I have realized I have become death no surprise
Make room for the new guy

Electric Heat

I got electric heat in the heart of me
My battery is bursting into flames for you
I'd crash my car - drive right off a cliff
If it meant I could only catch a glimpse
I wanna see you all the time
I'll sleep with both eyes wide open
I'd gnash my teeth on a piece of earth
Just to show you what you mean to me
I'd do it all and do it over again
show you what you're worth
I'm suffering
I'm suffering
In your name
Oh, the things I've done in your name
I'm on the hook
I'm on the level
I'm bursting into flames for you
Oh, the things I've done in your name

Making Space
02:55

I could move mountains given the time
I could break rocks for the rest of my life
If I lived forever and had all the strength in the world
I'd put it all to use for you
You want a river I'm carving a canyon
You want the stars I'll raze the trees
I'm making space for you and for me
Since the beginning been courting an ending
Death drive forever long live the dollar
This hides are a piling lining my pockets and staining my floors
And it's all for you
You want a fire I built you a bomb
You want my love but you got it all wrong
I'm just here to devour
I'm here for you
I'm here to devour

Bad Eyes
03:12
|
|

I keep seeing through-lines from the past to the future
and the bus lines just keep disappearing
All I know is I don't want to drive home tonight
These fucking rich guys taking and taking
and my red eyes ain't fooling no one
I'm always giving myself away
Taking and giving
I've had and I've held
lost and loved
touched and felt
and I've been sorry as well
I'm lingering
I'm lingering on you
I'm always giving myself away

Don't call me
I'm not who you think I am
I'm refusing this call
I ain't yer hero
My head's against the wall
I'm leaving again
Sometimes we don't measure up
Sometimes I just can't get down
I ain't as young as I was
I ain't as young as I was
I ain't as young as I was
I ain't as young as I was
Maybe things would be different
Maybe I'd have gone another way
Maybe I wouldn't feel so crazy
If I could forgive myself
If I could forgive myself
That'd be a place to start
If I could forgive myself
I ain't yer hero
no no no
I ain't yer hero
no no no
I ain't yer hero

Heat Death
03:17
|
|

My suffering
your suffering
when will it end?
Someday, we'll all equalize in heat death
these moments
between the axe strikes
that's where we're living
until the flames, again, bring on heat death
heat death
heat death
My grandpa
your father
dirty hands, dirty water
those kinds of cuts linger
I ain't learned to love it yet

Poor Choices
04:31
|
|
||
I try to rest and the world keeps calling
I can't sleep for the sound of the gears
This fucking guy and his machine
year after year
Same as the last one
Same as before
I'm hungry for just a little bit more
I'm not giving up yet
Weary of suffering
Wary of change
Fearing what's in me
Questioning my name
like who the hell do you think I am?
I'm not giving up yet
