I’ve got an obsession I need to make a confession I need to make a confession I’m obsessing over you Every time you smile at me I see what our lives could be Everything would be so perfect I want you and I know I deserve it Give me something Give me something Give me anything Give me anything Give me something Give me something Give me anything Give me anything Give me your hand Give me your heart Give me Everything I’ve got an obsession I need to make a confession I need to make a confession I’ve been obsessing over you Did you just meet my eye? I don’t want to hear your lies I know you want to be together And I know it will last forever Give me something Give me something Give me anything Give me anything Give me something Give me something Give me anything Give me anything Give me your hand Give me your heart Give me everything Everything that I want Is more than I’ll ever need Everything that I need Is more than I’ll ever get You could give me everything Give me everything I need You could give me everything And it still means nothing to me

Nude Song 01:30
Something’s changed I see it in her eyes Something’s changed And I know why It’s cause I’m a distant I’ve always been this way Distant Always so far away I don’t know how to love Because I’ve never been loved So come on baby show me some love And tell me baby will you bury me? I swear I love that girl I tell her all the time Even though I love you baby I’m still a waste of time I just can’t get it right I’ll never be quite right But it’s alright Tell me baby will we be alright? I don’t know how to love Because I’ve never been loved So come on baby show me some love Tell me baby will you bury me?

Wine Cult 02:13
Old believers tending fires bathing in moonlight Beating back the darkness at the edge of the tree line I see the end of it the end of the beginning The masks are off The world is gone The satyrs are singing It’s gone The world is gone Mix blood and wine and drink it down I wonder what we’ve lost with all we’ve found Rising with the moon across the face of the sky Unripened on the vine until the madness arrives Will I let it Never meet your idols I feel their drunken tongues and I wait for their fangs I drink another cup and pour the barrels away Too drunk to dream my blood my sleep my love and my failures The faded fruits the broken shields the golden azaleas It’s gone It’s all gone Mix blood and wine and drink it down I wonder what we’ve lost

Day after day after day after day Day after day after day after day A maze of their words in two tongues trade the weight Warm beer a Toussaint parade She’s laughing Hold on One more One more in broken French Hold on one more One more in broken french Day after day after day after day Day after day after day after day

I don’t want to go out I want to stay at home Sitting on my mother's knee I’ll never be alone She thinks of me She cares for me Every night she prays for me She tells me what I oughtta be She’s too good for this world So good you won’t believe I needed to have more time So I made my brother leave He was laying by the ashes But his body seemed unburned Stay away from mother Was the lesson that he learned Dear sweet mother I don’t want to go out I want to stay at home Sitting on my mothe'rs knee I’ll never be alone She thinks of me She cares for me Every night she prays for me She tells me what I oughtta be Dear sweet mother She’s too good for this world She’s so good you won’t believe Dear sweet mother

I Get Scared 01:38
It’s getting late again And I’m starting to shake again It’s not someone breaking It’s the feeling that’s seeping in I get scared When I turn off the lights at night I know it’s in my heart But I can’t trace it I hear it in my brain And I try to erase it It’s here to stay And I have to face it It’s always been this way Sometimes I just can’t take it I get scared When I turn off the lights at night I get scared when I turn off the lights
8.
The Axe 01:46
In the morning I look at my face I see it start to change I guess I’m just starting to show my age And soon I’ll fade away But I go to the couch sit down and watch tv Another day passes by I guess this is how life is supposed to be Another year passes by Should I be doing something? Me and my girl we thought we’d have some kids I hoped they’d have her eyes We thought of all the love that we could give I hope they’d have her smile Then we thought of all the ones who got shot Or were left in a cage to rot And we thought about the world And it’s terrifying Should I be doing something? The other day I went to see a friend We were just wasting time He said our lives are coming to an end But there is no wasted time The tree always remembers what the axe forgets And we’re all just passing by And everything in this world Is temporary

I am here I am now I had fear I forgot how Let’s close our eyes and pretend How does it feel to be the wind? He’s gone and someone said Flowers aren’t for the dead When I’m gone just wish me well Don’t have a funeral for my cells I am limitless I am forever This is just as good of a time as ever Really I’m just shapeshifting and soon I’ll take another form I could be a little flower or I could be a storm He’s gone and someone said Flowers aren’t for the dead When I’m gone just wish me well Don’t have a funeral for my cells I had a fever I went to the stream I am aware this could be a dream But what does it feel like to fly? What does it even feel like to die?

The Surface 02:11
You see me shaking baby? There’s something under the surface I’m just thinking baby There’s something under the surface I’m just aching baby There’s something under the surface There’s always something running around And it’s bringing me down There’s always something running around And it’s bringing me down There’s always something I haven’t found and will it ever be found There’s always something running around It’s always running around It was hard to go to work today But I stared straight ahead and I earned my pay Sometimes it’s hard to sleep at night Just a few hours it’ll be alright There’s always something running around And it’s bringing me down There’s always something running around And it’s bringing me down There’s always something I haven’t found and it will never be found There’s always something running around It’s always running around Something under the surface
11.
Perfection 01:08
You think I don’t want perfection from myself? If I could give it to me I would give it to you I’d give you the moon and flowers would bloom And we’d still be dreaming I’ve been depressed for a long long time I guess that’s why I’m always laying around You met me in a manic state
12.
The Archer 02:28
My truth? I adored her I sold myself stories of her order It never worked I yelled to tears I dined on her ashes and I dined for years Not today Not tomorrow Chaos loves the Archer not the arrow No happy end no golden parade Only open chaos to an open grave No fool waits in cold rain Take me to the door show me the way A fast laugh at my victories Forever singing to the silver beat Pulled away kicking and screaming Was all of my anger for wisdom and reason? Not today Not tomorrow Chaos loves the Archer not the arrow Revolution Revolution My tongue has no aim like the noisemakers bang Starving wolves and weary prey all running for our lives at the end of the day You want justice? Solace in revenge? I haven’t even known myself in years Come on take me to the door There’s no poem to this anger anymore Not today Not tomorrow Chaos loves the Archer not the arrow
13.
Maybe it’s so that all we see Is everything we come to be And so I’m told that all we hear Is everything we come to fear And we all know inside our shallow hearts Is everything that will tear us apart Oh our shallow hearts They always tear us apart Our shallow hearts tear us apart Our shallow hearts always tear us apart And so it goes that all we do is what makes up me and you Our shallow hearts
14.
I hate to admit but I’ve been toxic We all know that I’ve been violent It’s hard to admit that I’m not great And every time I masturbate I just want more and I can’t stop it Everyone is telling me I should drop it I just want more I can’t stop it Everyone’s is telling me I should drop it Lately I’ve been dying Kissing all my vices
15.
Former 01:21
In a former life I was a farmer’s wife He caused me too much strife So I took my own life Tell me about the good times Not about the bad times Tell me about the good times I wanna have a good time In a former life I was daddy’s girl He’d spin and we’d twirl Until he touched my little girl Tell me about the good times Not about the bad times Tell me about the good times I want to have a good time In a former life I had a girl named Jane He had something in her brain And it drove her insane
16.
Sepulveda 01:30
Sepulveda She’s a collector Ashcan copies of secret records With a hood of black With a grip of cash She owns all her silence Flipping A to B 22 upside down and out With some nicotine And a doctors watch She strikes as she sees She strikes as she sees Sepulveda Drowns and drowns Until life separates She unpacks her dreams Her patience as thin As a dollar bill And her planchette spins Like a balance wheel Her eyes are wet Her answer is yes She says she knows Her eyes confess She strikes as she sees She strikes as she sees
17.
All my life The same ol shit Yeah everyday Same ol shit And I get so Tired of it The same ol shit The same ol shit Dissatisfied With my life If I want it Then I don’t have it If I have it Then I don’t need it Cause if I have it It’s a bad habit Yeah if I have it It’s a bad habit Dissatisfied With my life I hate my life I hate my life Dissatisfied Dissatisfied All my life The same ol shit Yeah everyday The same ol shit And I get so Tired of it The same ol shit The same ol shit Dissatisfied With my life Fuck my life I hate my life Dissatisfied Dissatisfied
18.
See Us Dying 01:34
We don’t even throw down like we used to We never end up on the ground like we used to We still make a little sound like we used to do We’re still a little more than you’re used to We’re on fire Can’t you see us dying? We’re on fire We’re on fire We got some new jobs we’ve enslaved ourselves Still when we’re with the boys we don’t behave ourselves We were smoking too much but we saved ourselves We said we wouldn’t drink I kinda caved myself We’re on fire Can’t you see us dying? We’re on fire We’re on fire We used to be the cool kids
19.
Marie 01:42
I just want to see her face It’s been so long I wonder what she’s doing now It’s been so long And I’m waiting for Marie Looking for Marie Thinking of Marie Only of Marie Since the first time that I saw her I’ve never been the same That day something in my heart Said something to my brain And I’m waiting for Marie Looking for Marie Thinking of Marie Only of Marie
20.
Bardo, Bardo 01:46
If I die I’m staying dead If I die I’m staying dead The rain and the rainbow If I die I’m staying dead With my tools and my dice If I die I’m staying dead With my branch smile wide The rain and the rainbow The rain and the rainbow If I die I’m staying dead If I die I’m staying dead The rain and the rainbow If I die I’m staying dead I’m just a nest of bones If I die I’m staying dead If I die I’m staying dead The rain and the rainbow The rain and the rainbow Bardo Bardo If I die ask my father he’s forgotten Bardo Bardo if I die Nothing is left to feel a part of Bardo Bardo if I die if I die if I die
