The Brokn Jestr 03:13
lyrics
buy track
In the waking hours, flooded in dim gray light Fearful and fragile once again fails to fight The surge of anguish filling in the deepest holes Then turns right over so the suffer barely shows It's the first of April so let's hear it for the fools The bitch because they've broken all of their own rules Now paint your face up 'cause you've got a court to please Make ‘em smile and laugh, no one wants your suffering Now don't it make you feel alright? We play and you dance And your worries fade away tonight We hurt but we fake it And nothing's fixed, but it's cool Just let it stay broken For now you're better than us fools The broken jester crumples where no shadows fall With arms outstretched he cries, but no one's there at all In a room of faceless strangers, some of them are friends But few of them every really know you in the end But don't it make you feel alright? We play and you dance And your worries fade away tonight We hurt but we fake it And nothing's fixed, but it's cool Just let it stay broken For now you're one of us fools For now you're better than fools For now you're better than fools Fools like me

Symply Sid 03:20
lyrics

Vicious only was so in rumor and in deed His performance lacked his only act The drama no one needs What a waste of space; of a pretty face Other things so easy to replace But it didn't have to be that way He chose to kill it all away And I see this in you too I don't say this to be cruel I say this to you simply, Sid Because somebody has to Rise up Pull yourself up 'Cause the hands that help you out are fading fast And it's the last time I'll ask you Rise up Pull yourself up Barrett was a brilliant lunatic And gifted basket case A ticking bomb set to implode Leaving dreams and chaos in his wake His work left some to wonder Was genius or madness true But either way he was tragedy And so my dear are you I don't say this to be cruel I can't watch you play the fool I say this you simply, Sid Because somebody has to I don't say this to be mean Wish I could shake you and wake you til you see Your nightmare's just a dream It could be a beautiful dream A beautiful dream... Rise up Pull yourself up 'Cause the hands that help you out are fading fast And it's the last time I'll ask you Rise up Pull yourself up Rise up Pull yourself up

Drool 04:09

I’ve got the weight of the world Pressing down on me I just need me a new crush ‘Cause it’s distracting I didn’t have to look too far From my front door And I don’t have to look back There just isn’t any more Just isn’t any more And if you think it’d be okay A little longer I’ll stay And if you think it’d be okay A little longer I’ll stay Now I have nothing to lose But they keep taking things away Maybe if I didn’t choose you It wouldn’t have to be this way I’ve got the weight of the world Pressing down on me I just need me a new crush ‘Cause it’s distracting I didn’t have to look too far From my front door And I don’t have to look back There just isn’t any more Just isn’t any more Now I have nothing to lose But they keep taking things away Maybe if I didn’t choose you It wouldn’t have to be this way Now I have nothing to lose But they keep taking things away Maybe if I didn’t choose you It wouldn’t have to be this way Maybe if I didn’t choose you It wouldn’t have to be this way [ 2x ] Now, you’re not mine for the taking But you come for me I’m shaking The words fell out like drool “Would your girl get pissed if I kissed you?” [ 2x ]

Shiftless 03:52
lyrics

She traded in her lace for ribbons He laid in wait for his next victim White spats walk fast Down darkened alleys Nice cape nice hat Lure little dollies Drugs and wine and dine Oh, ain’t we lucky? We’re feelin’ fine Why would we worry? Step inside My shiny car I love you For just who you are Step inside I’ve got treats for you Lucky you Your dream’s come true Icy cold Each lovely face Ripped to ribbons Tarnished lace We forgot the punished ones names While his lives on His sin found fame He waits… Calm… Silent… Shiftless. The filth of years corrodes your tears The needs drown out all your fears Look where the life you lead has led The devil sleeping in your bed Icy cold Each lovely face Ripped to ribbons Tarnished lace We forgot the punished ones names While his lives on His sin found fame She traded in her lace for ribbons He laid in wait for his next victim...

I forgot how it feels to have much and still need more I would trade anything just to get back to before All the world fell to chaos around us in a blink And it didn't leave much time to plan or think So we stocked up on everything we'd need to get by And so many of us left, we know will die Now my love is true – but if they turn you, I won't hesitate to shoot Now we have no choice We were born to suffer And this life we live is just a bitter pill If we could, of course, we would never soil our soles, but... When the hit's on you You kill, baby, kill Now our numbers are fewer, but we will always fight Off the wicked, deranged, the tormented and dead-eyed And it wouldn't be normal to never question why we're here at all Why bother to try when we know we will all die But we have no choice We were born to suffer And this life we live is just a bitter pill If we could, of course, we would never sin or harm, but... When they feast on you You kill, baby, kill And you can't look back or think about the life that you once had ‘Cause it's gone When the stench of death and rotting flesh pollute the air Be strong... you must be strong And carry on...

I See Red 04:01
lyrics
buy track
Like a ghost I go unnoticed by most And though some feel me near They can’t make out what I need And then I cannot appear And fall I sometimes do I fell right into you You didn’t brush me off You called me luck And I’ll fly away, I always do But not before I bring good luck to you Hard shell wings beat and say I see red And I don’t feel mad at all And I don’t feel sad at all Could it be I feel free because You really can see me? And although you can recall All of the bitter things I’ve said It’s not always a negative to me When I see red I suppose it may seem strange to some But we fall on everyone At one time or another But not everybody cares Of all the crawly things you knew This ladybug is true So I’ll crawl longer If you want me to Then I’ll fly away, I always do But not before I bring good luck to you Hard shell wings beat and say I see red And I don’t feel mad at all And I don’t feel sad at all Could it be I feel free because You really can see me? And although you can recall All of the bitter things I’ve said It’s not always a negative to me When I see red.
